Faculty Corner
It is our honor to introduce all of you to one
of our newest adjunct professors, Carol
Siling, who is also “one of us!!”. She
worked at Southwestern Bell Corporation
(SBC) in Oklahoma City for 26 years and
retired in November, 2003. As a working
adult, Carol
completed her bachelor’s
degree in May, 2003, at OCU.
“I initially enrolled in the OCU PLUS
program in summer 1988, but with a high
school student at home, I realized I was not
able to devote time and attention to college
studies. After my daughter graduated from
high school and moved to Tulsa to attend
college, I decided it was time for me to
return!
I re-entered the OCU PLUS
program in fall 1994, completing my
Bachelor of Arts in Professional Studies
with a concentration in Business at OCU in
May 2003.” In spring 2004, Carol enrolled
in the College of Education at Oklahoma
State University-Tulsa (OSU-Tulsa). In
May 2006, she completed her Master of
Denise Short

career
development theory to help them
make informed decisions about their
