Fall is officially here. That means cooler weather, fires, sweaters and Halloween. I’ve never been a huge pumpkin or cinnamon fan.
You won’t smell any of those things when I burn candles in my house in the fall. Have you ever tried to find a candle in the fall that doesn’t have the scent of pumpkin or cinnamon? It’s pretty difficult.

Northern Oklahoma College’s Financial Aid Department is making it easier to complete financial aid forms for college. NOC’s Kelly Jordan has visited 10 area high schools to assist students and families with the process by hosting a FAFSA completion event.
Jordan, who has been with NOC 12 years, said the process can be overwhelming.
“Students and parents think the process is harder than it is,” she said. “The most important thing is to file the form by the deadlines. A financial aid professional at any school can then help make any changes.”
Northern Oklahoma College’s “Woodworking Class,” a community enrichment course, begins Nov. 7 on the NOC campus.
Instructor Rick Allan said classes will begin Thursday, Nov. 7 and continue on Tuesdays and Thursdays through Dec. 12. Participants will meet in the woodshop located in the Creative Arts Building on the Tonkawa campus from 6 p.m. – 8 p.m.
The class offers community members and NOC students a great opportunity to build that special project they always wanted but didn’t have the space or equipment needed to get it done.
