St. Louis Community College believes that all planners, presenters and content experts
taking part in continuing nursing education learning activities must adhere to a fair,
unbiased and evidence-based approach in presenting content, and declare any relationships

and death from cardiovascular disease and stroke and set guidelines for emergency
cardiovascular care and training. The American Heart Association strongly promotes
knowledge and proficiency in BLS, ACLS and PALS and has developed instructional materials
for this purpose. Use of these materials in an educational course does not represent course
sponsorship by the American Heart Association. Any fee charged for a course, except for a
portion of the fee needed for American Heart Association course material, does not represent
income to the Association.
Clinical and Field Work
Some degree and certificate programs offered by the college require students to obtain clinical
or other field experience as part of their course work. Students with criminal convictions or
drug use may have difficulty progressing in these programs. Hospitals and facilities may
mandate that a criminal background check and/or drug screening check (at
the student’s expense) may be conducted prior to placement in a clinical
or field setting. Students not passing these checks may be prohibited from
participating in the clinical or field experience, thus rendering the student
ineligible to satisfactorily meet the course/program requirements. Students
should contact an academic advisor or the program coordinator for further details.

and with less watering and weeding? Square
foot gardening is a design system that enables
the gardener to plant and maintain a productive,
attractive garden in any amount of space based
on a grid of 1-foot by 1-foot squares. In this class,
we’ll talk about the design elements of square foot
gardening to make a garden you’ll be proud of this
growing season. In addition, we discuss the benefits
of companion gardening and tips for companion
planting success.

ST. LOUIS COMMUNITY COLLEGE…
is celebrating 50 years of expanding minds and changing lives in 2012. Fifty years ago, ground was broken for the
Arch and votes approved the formation of the Junior College District of St. Louis-St. Louis County. The Arch made
St. Louis the “Gateway City” and the college provided another gateway, an “open door” of education for all citizens
in the St. Louis region.
Since 1962, more than 1.2 million people have passed through our doors to take a class, earn a degree, upgrade
their career skills or enrich their lives. Each year, nearly 80,000 students enroll in:
• Collegetransferandcareerprogramsleadingtoassociatedegrees
