Respiratory, Health Information & Nutrition

You are synthesizing a single cluster-level flexibility statement for a community college academic cluster (a group of related programs that share a department-page accordion).

CLUSTER
  Title: Respiratory Care
  Programs in cluster: 1

PER-PROGRAM STATEMENTS
  • Respiratory Care (AS Degree):
      You'll need to plan on being at Main Campus for most of your Respiratory Care coursework, since that's where the bulk of required classes reliably run. Some required courses are only reliably available online in a limited way, so you shouldn't count on finishing the major requirements remotely — Main Campus is where the program's core is taught. The Chico Center and Glenn Center work fine for your general education classes, but not for required Respiratory Care courses. Meet with a counselor to map out your specific sequence.

WHAT TO WRITE
  Write 2 to 3 sentences — under 120 words total — that summarize the AVAILABILITY STORY shared by these programs. Most programs in a cluster will have similar availability — name the common pattern. Note distinct outliers ONLY if a program's availability story differs in a way that affects student decisions (e.g., one program is online-only, others are not).

  - Plain, student-facing language.
  - Refer to "the programs in this cluster" or "these programs" — don't list each program by name unless an outlier needs calling out.
  - If all programs share the same flexibility story, write one unified statement.
  - Do NOT list percentages, term codes, or jargon.
  - Lead with the most flexible/strongest availability and follow with caveats.
  - Refer to locations ONLY by official center names (Main Campus, Chico Center, Glenn Center, Skyway Center, Cosmetology Center, Online). NEVER use a city or town name — no Oroville, no Willows, and never "Chico" as a city. Write "at the Chico Center", never "in Chico" — even if a per-program statement below used a city name, do not repeat it.

OUTPUT
  Return ONLY the statement text. No preamble, no quotation marks, no markdown.

CLUSTER
  Title: Nutrition
  Programs in cluster: 2

PER-PROGRAM STATEMENTS
  • Nutrition and Dietetics (AS-T Degree):
      Main Campus is where you can reliably take all of your required Nutrition and Dietetics coursework, so plan on being there regularly for the major. The Chico Center and Glenn Center each cover a good chunk of the required courses, but not all of them, so relying on either alone would leave gaps you'd need to fill elsewhere or online. Online only fills part of the requirements too, so it works as a supplement, not a full path. Check in with a counselor before building your schedule.
  • Nutrition and Food Science (AS Degree):
      For this degree, no single location covers all your required courses, so you'll need to plan on combining a couple of options. Main Campus offers the most reliable coverage of your major courses, and Online can fill in some gaps, but you'll still need at least one center to round things out — Glenn Center or Chico Center can help, though neither covers everything either. Meet with a counselor to map out a course-by-course plan across locations and terms.

CLUSTER
  Title: Medical Coding
  Programs in cluster: 1

PER-PROGRAM STATEMENTS
  • Medical Coding (Certificate of Achievement):
      Online is where most of this program's required coursework reliably runs, so plan on completing the bulk of your Medical Coding classes there. Main Campus and Chico Center each offer a few required courses reliably, which can help fill in gaps, but neither covers enough on its own. Glenn Center works for GE breadth only, not the required courses. Meet with a counselor to map out a schedule that combines Online with occasional in-person options.

You are writing a brief, student-facing flexibility note for a Butte College program. Imagine you are a counselor sitting across from the student. The student is trying to decide WHERE they will physically have to be to finish this degree.

PROGRAM
  Title: Public Health Science
  Award: AS-T Degree

LOCATIONS
  - Main Campus — Butte's main campus.
  - Chico Center — general center; many transfer-degree courses run there.
  - Glenn Center — satellite center.
  - Skyway Center — the dedicated home of the Auto Technology and
    Industrial / Power Pathway programs.
  - Cosmetology Center — the dedicated home of the Cosmetology and
    Barbering programs.
  - Online means a student can take it from anywhere with internet.
  - Dual Enrollment sections are taught at participating high schools
    across the region (NOT at Butte's centers). Coverage varies by HS.

LOCATION NAMING — HARD RULE
  Refer to locations ONLY by the official names exactly as listed above
  (Main Campus, Chico Center, Glenn Center, Skyway Center, Cosmetology
  Center, Online). NEVER mention a city or town name — no Oroville, no
  Willows, no Paradise, and never "Chico" as a city — not even
  alongside a center name. Students read a city name as the town
  itself, and Butte's campuses don't sit where the names suggest (Main
  Campus is not "in Oroville" in any practical sense). Write "at the
  Chico Center", never "in Chico". Write "at Main Campus", never "in
  Oroville".

RELIABLE REQUIRED-COURSE OFFERINGS BY LOCATION (last two academic years)
A required course counts as "reliably offered" at a location only if it
showed a REGULAR PATTERN — at least one section in BOTH window falls or
in BOTH window springs. A one-off section doesn't count: the student
can't bank on it coming back. For Select-N slots (e.g. "Select two"),
the slot is reliably satisfied at a location only when ≥N of its
options are reliably offered there.

  Main Campus:    Partial  (8 of 9 required slots reliably satisfiable here)
  Chico Center:   Partial  (3 of 9 required slots reliably satisfiable here)
  Glenn Center:   Partial  (7 of 9 required slots reliably satisfiable here)
  Online:         Partial  (8 of 9 required slots reliably satisfiable here)
  Dual Enrollment:       Partial  (3 of 9)  ← specialized center

WHAT EACH STATUS MEANS
  - "Yes"     — every required slot has reliable coverage at this location. A student can plan to take their major coursework here.
  - "Partial" — SOME required slots are reliably covered here, but not all. A student who wants to attend mostly at this location will have to combine it with another location or with Online for the gaps.
  - "GE only" — NO required slots are reliably covered here. The student can complete GE breadth here, but for the major's required courses they'll have to go elsewhere.

GROUND TRUTHS YOU MUST RESPECT
  - For Associate degrees, GE breadth requirements can be completed at ANY Butte center or online. That's a given for every Associate program — you don't have to belabor it, but you may briefly mention it when the student's location story for required courses is unfavorable.
  - When a Skyway-Center or Cosmetology-Center program shows "Yes" at its specialized center, LEAD with that — those programs are housed there by design, and the student should plan on being at that center (not Main Campus) for the bulk of their major coursework.
  - Don't tell a student to come to Main Campus when the program's specialized center has full reliable coverage. Main might still be useful for GE; the major work is at the specialized center.
  - "GE only" is NOT "Partial". Don't soften it. Say plainly the program's required coursework isn't taught there.
  - Online is a real option for some programs, but ONLY when its column is "Yes". Don't promise online completion based on "Partial".
  - Dual Enrollment coverage is an aggregate across participating high schools — at any single HS the available courses are typically far fewer. If you mention dual enrollment, mention that "what's offered at your high school will vary."
  - Even "Yes" is "has been reliably available recently" — future schedules can shift. The student should still meet with a counselor.

WHAT TO WRITE
  Two to three short, plain sentences in second person ("you can…", "you'll need to…"). Lead with where the major's required coursework actually runs reliably — that's what determines where the student has to be. Be honest, not promotional.

  - Do NOT list percentages or course counts.
  - Do NOT promise future schedules.
  - Do NOT use the words "completability", "completable", "AY", or "primary location".
  - Do NOT call a "GE only" location a place to "complete the program" — they can't.

OUTPUT
  Return ONLY the statement text. No preamble, no quotation marks, no markdown headers.

  Title: Paramedic
  Programs in cluster: 2

PER-PROGRAM STATEMENTS
  • Paramedic (AS Degree):
      For your Paramedic AS, plan to be at Main Campus — that's where the required coursework reliably runs, so this is where you'll need to build your schedule around. Chico Center, Glenn Center, and Online can help you knock out general education classes, but they don't offer the program's required courses, so they won't move you toward the degree's core requirements. Meet with a counselor to map out your specific plan.
  • Paramedic (Certificate of Achievement):
      You'll need to plan on being at Main Campus for this program — that's where the required paramedic coursework is reliably offered. Chico Center, Glenn Center, and Online can help you fit in general education classes, but they won't cover the required courses for your certificate. Meet with a counselor to map out your schedule, since course offerings can shift over time.

WHAT TO WRITE
  Write 2 to 3 sentences — under 120 words total — that summarize the AVAILABILITY STORY shared by these programs. Most programs in a cluster will have similar availability — name the common pattern.

CLUSTER
  Title: Skill Builders
  Programs in cluster: 3

PER-PROGRAM STATEMENTS
  • Allied Health    (Certificate):
      For this certificate, no single campus location covers all your required coursework reliably, so you'll need to combine locations. Online offers the strongest coverage of your required courses, with the Chico Center able to fill in a smaller piece; Main Campus and Glenn Center mainly work for general education, not the certificate's core classes. If your high school offers Dual Enrollment sections, that can also help, though what's available varies by school. Meet with a counselor to map out a schedule that fits your required courses across these options.
  • Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) (Certificate):
      Right now, none of Butte's locations reliably offer the required EMR coursework — Main Campus, Chico Center, Glenn Center, and Online only cover general education there. That means you shouldn't count on any single location (or online) to get you through the required courses for this certificate. Meet with a counselor to find out where and when the required EMR courses are actually scheduled, since you'll likely need to plan your term around wherever that offering lands.
  • Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) (Certificate):
      You can complete the EMT certificate's required coursework reliably at Main Campus or at Glenn Center, so plan to be physically present at one of those two locations for your major courses. The Chico Center and Online can support GE needs, but they won't get you through the required EMT sequence itself. Since schedules can shift, check in with a counselor as you plan your terms.
