Definition of Open Access Open Access Routes Benefits of Open Access Open Access Concerns Open Access and Social Media 2 Outline of Presentation
Academics are continuously struggling to achieve set Key Performance Indicators (KPI) "...the tenure process is tightly intertwined with the promotion process and publishing." (MADRIGAL, 2012) There is little awareness of Open Access in academia 3 Issues of Concern
4 Open Access Defined "Open Access (OA) is the provision of free access to peer-reviewed, scholarly and research information to all" (UNESCO, 2012).
5 Statement/DeclarationDate Budapest Open Access Initiative February 2002 Bethesda Statement on Open Access Publishing June 2003 Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities October 2003 OA Declarations/Statements
To encourage researchers to make their materials available in OA (through self-archiving in OA repositories or publishing in OA journals) To develop means and ways to evaluate OA contributions to maintain the standards of quality assurance and good scientific practice To advocate that OA publications be recognised in promotion and tenure evaluation 6 Berlin Declaration Highlights
Improves the speed at which the results of research are spread Increases the visibility, usage and impact of research by enhancing seamless accessibility via the Internet. As a researcher, publishing in an OA journal allows anyone with an interest in your work to read it - and that translates into increased usage and impact (MACQUARIE, 2010). 7 Benefits of Open Access
"Closed access is probably an extenuating factor to poor understanding of many important issues in science." (WICKS, 2012) OA offers authors discoverability. For this reason, OA articles tend to attract higher levels of downloads than subscription-only articles. The potential readership of OA articles is far greater than that for articles where the full-text is restricted to subscribers (MACQUARIE, 2010). 8 Benefits of Open Access
"The free online availability of research articles may introduce new ideas or themes to undertake research studies and could fuel more research" (PATTANAYAK & SAGAR,2010) Allows the professional, practitioner and business communities, and the interested public, to benefit from research through increased access (UNESCO, 2012). OA can reduce plagiarism. 9 Benefits of Open Access
"Science works on an open interchange of ideas. If things aren't available, then ideas aren't being interchanged...Scientists want their ideas to be talked about" (MCNAMUS, 2007). When research output is made freely available online it provides users with the latest peer- reviewed information and discoveries (MACQUARIE, 2010). Theses and Dissertations reach wider audience and supervisors and institutions gain reputation. 10 Benefits of Open Access
11 OA does not promote plagiarism Copyright law should be respected The more visible a work is, the easier it is to notice when it has been copied/plagiarised OA does not ignore the peer-review process OA does not affect peer-review; articles are peer-reviewed and published in journals in the normal way (MACQUARIE, 2010). Open Access Concerns
12 OA repositories do not replace journals OA archives or repositories do not perform peer review, but simply make their contents freely available to the world. They may contain unrefereed preprints, refereed post prints, or both (SUBER, 2004). They are additional venues for published articles (CONCORDIA, 2013). Open Access Concerns
"Open Access journals can have similar impact to other journals, and prospective authors should not fear publishing in these journals merely because of their access model." James Pringle, Thomson ISI In 2012, 163 of Springer's 397 OA journals were listed by ISI and had an Impact Factor 13 Open Access Concerns
GOLD The " GOLD " route Use of OA journals - those journals whose funding model that does not charge readers or their institutions for access (DOAJ, 2013) OA journals perform peer review and then make the approved contents freely available to the world. Their expenses consist of peer review, manuscript preparation, and server space (SUBER, 2004). 14 The Gold Route to Open Access
Citing the high cost of journal subscriptions, Harvard's Faculty Advisory Council in 2012 urged faculty to "consider submitting articles to open-access journals" (HARVARD, 2012) Example: Public Library of Science (PLoS) 15 The Gold Route to Open Access
Fee-Based OA Journals These are the "journals for which users are granted an irrevocable, world-wide, perpetual access without any financial or other barriers and the authors (or the sponsoring Institute) bear the cost involved in making it publicly accessible" (PATTANAYAK & SAGAR, 2010) 16 The Gold Route to Open Access
Fee-Based OA Journals Costs are met very much as in television and radio stations: those with an interest in disseminating the content pay the production costs upfront so that access can be free of charge for everyone with the right equipment (SUBER, 2004). Require payment by or on behalf of the author Such payment may come from the author or from his/her research grant (at times this is waived) 17 The Gold Route to Open Access
18 The Gold Route to Open Access
No-Fee OA Journals Can be supported by institutions, e.g., produced from within a university 19 The Gold Route to Open Access
GREEN The " GREEN " route Achieved via repositories such as Institutional Repositories, or personal websites Depending on policies in place, can capture more material, faster (UNESCO, 2012). Work deposited in one or more IRs has an increased likelihood of being found (or discovered) by potential users (students or other researchers) since IRs are easily searchable through popular search engines. 20 The Green Route to Open Access
GREEN The " GREEN " route The majority of publishers now allow some form of archiving in their copyright agreements with authors, sometimes requiring an embargo period (BJORK & SOLOMON, 2012). 21 The Green Route to Open Access
Some major publishers allow the published PDF version to be deposited in an IR (CONCORDIA, 2013): 22 The Green Route to Open Access
Some major publishers allow the post-print (final, refereed manuscript) to be deposited in an IR (sometimes with an embargo): 23 The Green Route to Open Access
24 The Green Route to Open Access
25 The Green Route to Open Access
26 The Green Route to Open Access
HYBRID The " HYBRID " route Where a fee can be paid to make a single article OA in an otherwise subscription-based journal. In some cases, the publisher will reduce the subscription cost in line with the new revenue coming in from OA charges, but in most cases this is not offered. 27 The "Hybrid" Route to Open Access
The dissemination of research depends upon the copyright holder's consent. Copyright is a bundle of rights: authors of journal articles normally sign the whole bundle of rights over to the publisher, though this is not normally necessary. 28 Open Access and Copyright
Authors (or their employers or funders) can retain the rights they need to make the work OA, assigning to the journal publisher the right to publish the work (and to have the exclusive right to do this, if required). Such premeditated retention of sufficient rights to enable OA is the preferable course of action rather than seeking permission post-publication. (UNESCO, 2012) 29 Open Access and Copyright
The Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) Aims to increase the visibility and ease of use of OA scientific and scholarly journals, thereby promoting their increased usage and impact. Aims to be comprehensive and cover all OA scientific and scholarly journals that use a quality control system to guarantee the content. Aims to be THE one stop shop for users of OA journals. Accessible on http://www.doaj.org 30 Finding Open Access Content
31 Finding Open Access Content
Open Access Theses and Dissertations (OATD) A discovery service intended to improve the ability to put researchers and scholars in touch with the valuable and unique OA content. Available on http://oatd.org PQDT Open Provides the full text of open access dissertations and theses free of charge. Available on http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/ 32 Finding Open Access Content
Digital Repositories Infrastructure Vision for European Research (DRIVER) Considered the largest initiative of its kind in helping to enhance repository development worldwide. Attempts to create a pan-European umbrella organization for digital repositories. Search page available on http://search.driver.research-infrastructures.eu/ 33 Finding Open Access Content
A journal's influence is generally determined by counting the number of times its articles are cited (PICKARD, 2012) The Journal Impact Factor (JIF) has been a key measure used to evaluate scholarly work and identify researchers' prestige, promotion and tenure world-over (BERNAL, 2013). The advent of the Internet, gave way to new journals, new data and new approaches for assessing research. 34 Evaluation of Scientific Literature
The Journal Impact Factor Simply considers citations Does not consider real-time indicators of impact Does not capture impact on practitioners some of whom may never publish Does not show evidence of public engagement in ideas Scholars may discuss, recommend, refute, or teach a new finding before it is ever cited (PRIEM, GROTH, & TARABORELLI, 2012). 35 Measuring Research Impact
Altmetrics is the study and use of non-traditional scholarly impact measures that are based on activity in web-based environments. As scholarship increasingly moves online, these metrics track associated interactions and activity to generate fine-grained data, allowing researchers and policy makers to create a higher resolution picture of the reach and impact of academic research. 36 Altmetrics
Although OA articles may be accessed more frequently, traditional impact factors measure citations rather than readership. When OA is combined with social media, the influence of research articles shifts from publications to individual researchers. By sharing research findings via social networks, one can quickly get feedback from other experts. There have been reports of papers being corrected this way, soon after publication. 37 OA and Social Media
Sharing links to published OA articles can enhance opportunities for collaboration with other experts in the same or related fields. 38 OA and Social Media
"Getting relevant feedback from the scientific community is crucial and with the growing importance of the social web, we should be able to leverage its power and communicate or collaborate without borders and limitations. Open access should and can accelerate this process," Dr Bertalan Mesko, Social Media expert. 39 OA and Social Media
40 Source: (PRIEM, GROTH, & TARABORELLI, 2012) OA Impact Data Sources
Major research funders such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Wellcome Trust have started requiring OA publishing from their grantees (BJORK & SOLOMON, 2012). The U.S. National Institutes of Health (the world's largest research funder), now requires that all their funded research be placed in an openly accessible database, and so is it with Harvard University (MACQUARIE, 2010). 41 Funders' Response to OA
Open Access is now joined by other concepts in a broader 'open' agenda that encompasses issues such as Open Educational Resources (MOOCs), Open Science, Open Innovation and Open Data (UNESCO, 2012). 42 The "Open" Agenda
43 Submit your research articles to OA journals, when there are appropriate OA journals in your field. Deposit your work in an OA repository. Establish full-text Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETDs) for your institution, backed by policies mandating students to submit their work. Support OA journals by serving on their boards or refereeing their papers whenever possible. Promoting Open Access in Academia
44 If not already, advocate for your institution to be a signatory to the Berlin Declaration. Afterwards, push for policies that put it into action. Help to build strong editorial boards for OA journals so as to increase their influence and reputation. Volunteer to serve on your institution's committee to evaluate faculty for promotion and tenure, then push for policies that enforce the Berlin Declaration principles. Promoting Open Access in Academia
Thanks to support from top management, a growing number of institutions in Africa are signatories to Signatories to the Berlin Declaration on Open Access. However, such moves should be supported by institutional policies that are put in place to enforce the stated positions. Furthermore, librarians should take advantage of the power of social media as a tool to boost the impact of research output made available via Open Access. 45 Conclusion
Thank You Amos Kujenga EIFL-FOSS National Coordinator, Zimbabwe email@example.com National University of Lesotho, 22 October 2013

The Alaska-Aleutian subduction zone is among one of the most seismically active regions in the world with a history of megathrust earthquakes measuring up to Magnitude 9.2 (The 1964 Alaskan Earthquake). The largest earthquakes in the world occur at these subduction megathrusts and thus pose a great hazard to coastal communities. Seismicity in these subduction zones behaves differently along the margin and is in part controlled by the bathymetry and geometry of the down going portion of the lithosphere, which also varies along the strike of the margin. It is therefore of importance to understand the geometry of the subducting lithosphere to better understand seismic hazards along a subduction thrust. -- For imaging of the complex seafloor geometry, multichannel seismic profiles were acquired with the 6600 cu. in. source of the Langseth and two 8 km streamers, both perpendicular and parallel with the trench. The deep sea portion of a trench-normal line and a trench-parallel line were processed and interpreted to draw conclusions on implications the seafloor geometry will have on future seismicity.

The reason for developing most all home appliances is so that they can carry out. Usually, these residence appliances will work for some many years without considerable problems. As a result of this, numerous individuals have a tendency to get them for provided. What follows is that an person is entirely at a loss when the gadgets split down. You do not know why it has stopped functioning, or how it functions, much less how to resolve it. The subsequent are a couple of of useful home equipment fix tips.
DON'T: Be in a hurry to purchase a new appliances at the first signal of trouble. It's nearly always much more cost-effective to restore your equipment fairly than purchasing a new 1.
Instead of moping about, act quick and consider the device to an whirlpool washer repair charlotte. If it is cumbersome gear like ranges or refrigerators, some fix stores could offer home support. Get in touch with your trusted appliance upkeep shop and they can send in a fix gentleman to do the occupation in no time. It is crucial not to disregard early indicators of injury when you first recognize them. Does it make a odd sounds when you turn it on? Do not wait for the problem to worsen and have your tools checked proper absent.
If you cannot locate a organization that only works on Frigidaire dishwashers, you must search for a single that performs general dryer repair services. This is not quite as great an idea given that they will not be specialists on the design that you very own, but several of these retailers are truly fairly great. The workers have been trained and are knowledgeable about a large assortment of issues because they have worked on so numerous devices. This is also not a bad concept because you can then commence making use of this organization for all of your dryer fix solutions needs when one thing else breaks in the home.
As a courtesy, in situation you have pets or kids, be certain to maintain them out of the way of the fixit gentleman. Even if your children and your pets are nicely behaved, the repairman is functioning for a residing and not to engage in close to.
Not all companies charge the identical charges. Generally, a business that advertises all over the World wide web will demand higher fees simply because they have to pay for the advertising. You require to contact around and get rates for repairs before you make your ultimate selection. Some fix companies cost their charges by the hours and other people cost a flat payment. If you know what the difficulty is and it will take a short time to repair, go for the hourly charge. If you have no clue what is improper or you do not want the technician using their sweet time, go for a business that charges a flat fee.
However, there are a lot more serious failures that can happen, which might be trickier to diagnose or repair. For example, if the h2o pressure is tough or variable, it can be as a end result of an air leak in the inlet drinking water pipe or a blockage in it, leading to much less water to come by means of. If right after cleansing the inlet pipe and checking for any blockages doesn't solve the issue, change the discharge valve, given that that is a signal it is worn out.

Adobe's new Photography Plan enables anyone to use the most up-to-date desktop versions of both Lightroom and Photoshop CC for as little as £8.78/$9.99 per month, which is an excellent deal for most people, especially those just getting involved in serious photo editing. But Adobe's move to a subscription-based model raised the question of what would happen to users' Lightroom catalogues once their Creative Cloud (CC) membership expired. In a recent blog post, Adobe's Tom Hogarty responded to these concerns, stating that "at the end of a membership, the desktop application will continue to launch and provide access to the photographs managed within Lightroom as well as the Slideshow, Web, Book or Print creations that we know many photographers painstakingly create. The Develop and Map modules have been disabled in order to signal the end of the membership and the need to renew in order to receive Adobe's continuous innovation in those areas. Access to Lightroom mobile workflows will also cease to function."

My first sponsor was very good at keeping it simple. She said, "Do the work and leave the outcome in God's hands." Here's an example that shows the wisdom of that suggestion:
Several years ago, I was working part-time, so I volunteered for public speaking service. As I discussed this with the AA member coordinating the work, I said a silent prayer that I would not have to speak to police cadets. I knew that each new class devoted one session to AA and Al-Anon. I didn't like the police and could explain the reasons to you at length.

Benediction - a game by Mike Schramm iOS
- Publisher: Michael Schramm
- Release Date: Nov 9, 2012
- Summary: Benediction is the second game from writer and creator Mike Schramm. It was developed over a two-day period in October 2012, and Mike has decided to release it as a universal app for completely free!In Benediction, you play as God (or just a god), answering the prayers of supplicants. BlueBenediction is the second game from writer and creator Mike Schramm. It was developed over a two-day period in October 2012, and Mike has decided to release it as a universal app for completely free!In Benediction, you play as God (or just a god), answering the prayers of supplicants. Blue supplicants are unhappy because they want faith, something to believe in a cruel world. Purple supplicants are lonely -- they need others like them to love. Green supplicants have prayers of wanting, of material and physical needs. And yellow supplicants seek actual miracles, that elusive proof of the unreal.You can answer all of their prayers, no matter how complex, just by tapping on them! When you do, all of the supplicants of the same color next to each other (even diagonally) will have their prayers answered, granting you worship points (and eventually fueling your powers). Use your powers of answering prayer to earn as many worship points as possible before your god power runs out, and then use your worship points to upgrade your skills and become the most powerful god of all!Benediction has...-State of the art, realistic Schramm-created graphics. They're not that good, but they're the most colorful he's ever made.-Innovative puzzle game mechanics!-A rich and rewarding progression system!-The chance to earn dozens of different titles!-Game Center leaderboards to compete on against your friends and foes!-No annoying sound to keep you from listening to music or watching TV in the background! Seriously, who needs sound, right?Benediction was designed to run on an iPhone 4, an iPhone 5, and an iPad 2. It will presumably run on other devices, though you'll have to do so at your own risk. Any major bugs will be fixed as soon as possible.Like this game? Search "Antithesis" on the App Store to find and buy Mike Schramm's first game. It's completely different from this one, in that it's in black and white, not turn-based, and you pay for it, but Mike would definitely appreciate the dollar.And speaking of dollars, Mike made this game in just two days during a personal game jam.

"I'm afraid that if I say friends you'll hit me." Harry joked after a moment of thinking it over. I let out a small, amused chuckle when he said that. Punching his shoulder lightly, he pretends that I hit him really hard. "Ow! You see what I mean?" He laughs along with me.
"Oh shut up." I smile at him, shaking my head slightly.
Elsie Malfoy is the younger sister of the infamous Draco Malfoy. It's been a secret to those who don't attend Beauxbaton Academy. Now that their Father is away in Azkaban she wants nothing more than to stay closer to her brother more than ever. The secret's out -- there's another Malfoy in town. Harry Potter, the sworn enemy of Draco, actually likes this girl. She can't let anyone find out about that.

The Kids Don't Float Program, which provides life preservers for borrowed use to visitors enjoying the Mokelumne River, began its summer season in time for the Memorial Day holiday weekend. The program got underway on Saturday, May 28this year and this marks the seventh year for Kids Don't Float, which was conceived as a result of a tragic drowning on the river in April, 2009.
Expect the waterways to be crowded if you're planning on heading out, now that the 'summer' season has started. Last year I fished on Sunday and Monday during Memorial Day weekend and surprisingly didn't have to deal with a lot of boat traffic. My secret was to fish very early on both days, while making sure to be off the water around noon. One of the lakes I visited was Lake Pardee. Lake Pardee doesn't allow body contact with the water so there were only fisherman on the lake which made it a nice getaway from the ...
A wrestler's job is never done. Although some wrestlers just wrestle during the winter, many Oakdale wrestlers stay busy on the mats year round to keep up with their high standards. Oakdale High School's wrestling program has been a powerhouse for well over a decade and it is due to their hard efforts on and off the mat. Seven of the team's wrestlers will be joining in the fourth annual Gilroy Wrestling Midcals Elite Summer Camp. The three day camp opens on Friday, June 17 and concludes on Sunday, June 19 at Gilroy High School.

Travel Blogs from Laughlin
A reminiscing drive to Laughlin
... It was such a lovely day, we enjoyed our meal at a picnic table outside the restaurant.
After lunch, we headed to Laughlin, having fun capturing some of the road signs we don't normally see. We arrived at our hotel late afternoon. While Mike relaxed, I checked out the hotel and what it offered. Harrahs is right on the Colorado River and has a nice little beach, in addition to the two swimming pools.
We enjoyed ...
Made it to the Casino Laughlin
... Valley via Las Vegas. I rode with them to Kingman from the beginning of Rt 66. They were great guys and I had lunch with them in Kingman at Jack in the Box. The food was surprisingly good. Ziggy wasn't hungry. They headed up to the Hoover Dam and Vegas. I pealed off onto Rt 68 to Laughlin.
Now we were in the desert. Pictures tell a 1000 words . The changing landscapes ...

Emma got 'N' and confidently blurted out "not, nan, newt", with the first second, followed by a 29 second long "errrrrrrrrrrrrr", followed by about 5 minutes of continuous laughter. Weather: not seen a cloud since Yosemite, very cold in Grand Canyon, hot everywhere else. Food: nothing exceptional but lots of it. We have now got a 4 hour drive to reach LA, our final USA destination, and we are there for 5 nights in Santa Monica, kindly staying with Darryl, a family friend of the ...
Bike trip (Day 1) LA to Laughlin
... We made it safely to Bagdad Cafe, on historic Route 66, for a hard earned break from the first half of our day. It was surreal travelling along the old Route 66, buildings and towns that were once occupied are now completely empty. Unfortunately we couldn't enjoy the scenary for too long as it was the second half of the day that things didn't go according to plan. I gave up counting the number ...

Much of the Disney film Cars is based on the environment and region of this part of northern Arizona. Old cars and trucks are everywhere. Antiques and rust abound, and RT 66 logo souvenirs are sold at every cash register in town. The top three places in Seligman to get food ...

Complete Portable RF Emissions Containment System
SELECT's High Attenuation RF Signal Security Tents are designed to prevent electronic eavesdropping of RF emissions from computer and communications equipment when a military or diplomatic team is traveling and working in hotels, office buildings or in the field. These portable room enclosures are designed for maximum signal attenuation. Emission Security (EmSEC) protocols, formerly TEMPEST, recognize that high levels of attenuation are required to assure close data security from the room next door or the floors above or below.
Easy to set up and dismantle, Select-A-Shield high attenuation tents can fit into hand-carry transit cases for efficient shipping and the ability to be used in multiple locations.
High Attenuation Certification
Assure your RF enclosure meets your shielding needs. Suppliers' data on shielding effectiveness should be carefully scrutinized to assure it meets minimum shielding requirements. Select Fabricators uses IEEE® 299 third party testing to measure minimum shielding effectiveness readings achieved on the fully assembled enclosures through the tent wall at different locations within the tent at different frequencies. This test on Select's high attenuation tent with internal vestibule resulted in at least a -85.7dB attenuation from 400 MHz to 18GHz when taking measurements through the wall at multiple locations.
Vestibule for Convenient and Secure Entry and Exit
Contain signal leakage with vestibule entryways designed as either an interior part of the tent's footprint or as an exterior extension from the main tent. Placement of a vestibule is typically in the front right hand corner, but is easily configured to customer requirements. Select-A-Shield High Attenuation RF EMI Tents with vestibule are portable, collapsible and durable.
Made in the USA of US materials.
Standard Select-A-Shield High Attenuation Portable Tent Enclosures include:
• Multiple layers of NovaSelect™ conductive fabric
• White ESD fabric layer inside tent
• Internal or external vestibule entryway system
• Single (US 9,029714) or double (US 8,530,756) patented door seal systems
• Series 500 aluminum frame
• High performance power & data filtering
• Complete shielded ventilation system
• RF shielded floor between two layers of heavy duty tarp
• Tent storage and transit bag
• Complete installation instructions
• Motion-detection interior EMI hardened lighting inside vestibule
• LED and EMI hardened lighting
• Cable Sleeves
• Power and data filters configured to customer requirements
• Air-conditioning
• Shielding effectiveness certification to customer specifications by independent test lab
• Components can be configured to fit in secure hardshell transit cases
• Alternative frame styles
• Alternative tent layout configurations to meet customer defined C4ISR specifications

Since the early 1960s Argentario is considered to be the destination of elite tourism.
Just in 130 km from the intercontinental airport of Rome Fiumicino (2.5h by car), this area is unique in its shape as it offers miles of pristine beaches and beyond 30 miles of rugged coastline with beautiful bays coveted by yachting.
Monte Argentario, divided between the municipalities of Porto Santo Stefano and Porto Ercole, offers the visitor a unique experience of nature and tranquility combined with luxury time.
Originally an island, over the centuries the island was joined to the mainland by a nearby sediment process that gave rise to the first Feniglia and follow what Giannella.
There are multiple deligtful restaurants, Golf Club and Yacht Club nearby.
We can also organise the visit to the ship building yard, which provided the yacht for President Kennedy and his family.
Location description from owner
The Tuscany region
The sea is just few minutes walk - enjoy wonderful beach of Cala dei Gessi. More than 7 other beaches can be reached by car or by a free shuttle service active during the whole summer period.
Villa guests can enjoy the facilities of the Cala Moresca Park (bar, swimming pool with sea water, shuttle)
For children there are green areas in the park for games.
Monte Argentario has beautiful turquoise sea with beautiful beaches and coves that make it an excellent choice for a holiday of fun and relaxation. Wide beaches of fine sand and small coves with sand and pebble, natural creeks and flat rocks. Some are of easy access, others can only be reached by foot paths or solely from the sea.
Enjoy the diversity and relaxation heaven.
Porto Santo Stefano
There are 7 beautiful islands in the Tuscan archipelago, including Monte Argentario.
In order of significance: Elba, Lily, Capraia, Montecristo, Pianosa, Giannutri and Gorgona.
All are relatively easy to reach by boat from the port of Porto Santo Stefano and Porto Ercole or from the marina of Cala Galera.
From Porto Santo Stefano there is active year-round ferry service to the islands.
La marina di Cala Galera, stands where once there was a fascinating natural bay. Now it is a modern marina with luxury yachts and sailboats, shops, bars and restaurants.
The harbor is home to more than 700 boats and is a reference point for the private cruise to Sardinia, Corsica and the Tuscan Archipelago.
The golf course is located in a protected natural area in 5 minutes from Riserva Naturale Duna Feniglia e a 25 km dal Park of Maremma. La Laguna di Orbetello, the sea and the slopes of Monte Argentario offer a panorama of extraordinary beauty and create a microclimate that allows you to play golf all year round.
L 'Argentario Golf Club, that hosts several golf tournaments among the most important in Tuscany and Italy, features 18 panoramic holes for a total of 6.218 meter par 71. The course is certified "Agri Cert" eco bio-compatible and all products used for its maintenance are totally natural.
The'Argentario Golf Academy, in addition to a staff of professional teachers of golf, boasts the simulator TrackMan IIIe, a system of the latest generation for the analysis of the swing.
The field 18 holes and the driving range, opened in 2006, were made by architect David Mezzacane and professional player Baldovino Dassù, Italian flag in the world of golf. The holes were then modeled by a specialist Brian Jorgensen: the result is a path varied, spectacular and technically valid.

Cost of Attendance for Graduate Students
Living Expenses
Expenses for the 2015–2016 academic year (two semesters) for undergraduate students were approximately $24,320.00 for an in-state student and $50,360.00 for an out-of-state student. These expenses are listed separately below. (Graduate students, see "For Graduate Students" below.)
Tuition and fees are assessed on a semester basis. Billing statements will be available online through the ConnectCarolina Student Center. Students and authorized users will receive a courtesy e-mail notification after statements are available. Students are responsible for accessing their statements online and paying them on time. Any past due charges will result in a hold on registration and transcripts. Students must pay past due balances from prior terms before they will be allowed to register for future semesters. Students registering after the last billing date must either prepay tuition and fees or provide documented eligibility of financial aid to the Office of Student Accounts and University Receivables.
It is extremely important for students to refer to the online Registration Guide, which is produced by the Office of the University Registrar (see especially "Pay your bill"), prior to each semester or summer session and to follow instructions concerning payment/deferment due dates to avoid registration cancellation.
Payment Methods
For up-to-date information on payment options, please visit Payment Options and Access.
Expenses for an undergraduate student for the 2015–2016 academic year included
|N.C. Resident
|Tuition and Fees
|Books and Supplies
|Residence Hall (average double room rate)
|Personal Expenses
|Health Insurance
For the most up-to-date information, please visit the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid.
Mandatory student fees are detailed on the Web at Tuition and Fees. In addition to these fees, incoming student, special laboratory, and designated program fees also may be charged. The returned check fee is $25, and the late registration fee is $20.
Each student is responsible for payment of his or her University charges. If a third party will be paying the charges, the Office of Student Accounts and University Receivables must receive an authorization from the third party well in advance so that arrangements can be made, if possible, for a separate invoice to be sent to the proper agency or organization in order to ensure timely payment.
Students who are expecting to receive financial aid or scholarship funds should bring with them sufficient funds (cash or travelers' checks) to take care of living expenses for approximately 15 days. This should provide sufficient time for financial aid or scholarship funds to be made available.
The last day to reduce a course load for credit on a student's financial account is two weeks from the first day of classes for each semester. Dropping the only course requires official withdrawal.
In case of withdrawal from the University, tuition and fees will be prorated according to the withdrawal refund calendar posted on the Student Billing page under "Important Dates." The last date for credit on a student's financial account for withdrawal is nine weeks after the first day of classes for the fall and spring semesters.
Adjustment of Tuition
If a student withdraws from the University, tuition and fees will be prorated according to the withdrawal refund schedule posted under "Important Dates" on the Student Billing page. If a student drops the only course he or she is taking, this constitutes a withdrawal from the University.
Fifty Percent Tuition Surcharge
Effective Fall 2010, undergraduate students seeking a baccalaureate degree at UNC–Chapel Hill will be subject to a 50 percent tuition surcharge as required by the North Carolina General Statute Section 9.10.(b) § 116-143.7. Session Law 2009-451. Prior to Fall 2010, the surcharge is 25%. No surcharge will be imposed on any student who exceeds the degree credit hour limits within the equivalent of four academic years of regular term enrollment, or within five years of regular term enrollment in a degree program officially designated by the Board of Governors as a five-year program. As of Fall 2009, UNC–Chapel Hill has no five-year programs approved by the Board of Governors. Visit the Fifty Percent Tuition Surcharge Web page for further explanation of how degree credit hours are determined.
Direct Deposit of Financial Aid Funds
For students who are receiving financial aid in excess of tuition, fees, housing, and meal plan costs, the Office of Student Accounts and University Receivables will deposit excess funds from the account to either a checking or savings account at the student's bank. Students must complete the direct deposit consent through the ConnectCarolina Student Center as soon as possible. It takes seven days to validate the bank account information. Students also must promptly update their direct deposit information if there are any changes to their banking information.

Financial Aid
For Undergraduates
The University works hard to keep Carolina affordable for all students. A combination of low tuition and strong financial aid helps put Carolina within reach, regardless of financial circumstances.
Students and families are expected to pay for college to the extent that they are able. Scholarships, grants, loans, and work-study funds are awarded by the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid to help those who cannot afford the full cost of attendance.
Aid comes from federal, state, University, and private sources, each with a particular set of rules and restrictions. Aid policies are guided by federal and state laws, donor wishes, and the University Committee on Scholarships, Awards, and Student Aid.
Detailed information on scholarships and student aid can be found at the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid. Students and parents are also welcome to e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com for questions and guidance. We're here to help.
Applying for Financial Aid
Funds are limited, and the most helpful types of aid – University scholarships, campus jobs, and low-interest loans – are awarded first to students who apply by March 1.
If your tax and income information is not available by March 1, apply with your best estimates. You can make corrections later.
To apply for financial aid:
- Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by March 1.
UNC school code 002974
- Complete the CSS PROFILE by March 1.
UNC school code 5816
- Monitor UNC e-mail and regularly check ConnectCarolina for updates.
If we need more information to complete your award, we will notify you by email. The sooner you respond and complete the application process, the more likely funding is available.
Applying for aid is an annual process, so you will need to reapply each year.
Priority Deadline
Complete the FAFSA and CSS PROFILE by March 1 each year. Late forms are accepted, but aid is offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Entering students should apply for aid as early as possible, even before admission to Carolina. Reapply by March 1 each year.
Award Decisions
An entering undergraduate student who applies on time can expect to receive an aid offer in April. Returning undergraduate students who meet the March 1 deadline are usually notified in May. Graduate and professional students are also usually notified in in May. Students who apply after March 1 will be notified as quickly as resources allow. Awards for late-filing students may not arrive until after enrollment has begun.
Types of Need-Based Financial Aid
Scholarships, grants, and work-study do not have to be repaid; loans require repayment. Aid awards will include as much scholarship and grant aid as possible, with remaining need usually met by the offer of a loan, a work-study job, or both. Graduate and professional students will receive loans and/or work to meet any eligibility remaining after awards from schools or departments.
Students will always have the opportunity to reduce or decline loans before accepting an aid offer.
Eligibility for Need-Based Financial Aid
To be eligible for financial aid, a student must be enrolled and making satisfactory academic progress in a degree or eligible certificate program. Information about the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy can be found at studentaid.unc.edu/sap. Once all requirements of a degree are met, students may no longer receive financial aid.
Aid is restricted if a student is in default on a loan previously received for college expenses or owes a refund on a scholarship, grant, or loan from an earlier enrollment period. Both resident and nonresident students are eligible for financial aid, though different University policies may apply.
The Carolina Covenant
The Carolina Covenant is offered to eligible undergraduates who have family income at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level and limited assets. Covenant Scholars have the opportunity to graduate debt-free through a combination of grants and work-study. Covenant Scholars also have access to faculty and staff mentors, enrichment activities, and other personal support services. No special application is necessary; eligible students will be notified after applying for financial aid. Details are on the Carolina Covenant Web site.
Federal Aid Programs
Rules for federal student aid are set by Congress. Eligibility is set by a federal formula that examines the income and assets of the student and family, household size, the number of people in college, taxes paid, and other factors. Scholarships and awards from private sources are also factored into the eligibility formula.
The Federal Pell Grant Program provides assistance to needy undergraduate students. A Pell Grant will automatically be included as part of an eligible student's financial aid package.
More detailed information is available at the Federal Student Aid Web site.
University Scholarships and Grants
Undergraduate students are considered for UNC-funded scholarships and grants, which do not have to be repaid, based on a detailed analysis of family financial circumstances. This may include home equity, other income, and family assets that may not have been considered in the calculation of federal aid. Institutional scholarship and grant funds are often combined with federal aid to provide a total package of financial aid.
The University also offers scholarship funding to enroll certain students with exceptional financial need who are likely to contribute to the intellectual experience and diversity of the undergraduate student body, as well as funds to assist eligible students who are residents of North Carolina and members of an Indian tribe recognized by the state or the federal government. No separate application is required; students will be considered based on their aid application and UNC admissions application.
Merit Scholarships
Each year the University offers a limited number of merit scholarships to entering first-year students. These highly competitive programs recognize academic achievement, leadership, commitment to service, and potential for success at the University. Most of these awards are based solely on merit; some consider a combination of financial need and academic merit.
Because Carolina is a highly selective university, competition for merit scholarships is strong. Only a very limited number of merit scholarships are awarded each year.
There is no separate application for UNC merit scholarships. Selection is based on the information provided in a student's admission application. Merit scholarship finalists will be notified in early January (for early admissions applicants) and late February (for regular deadline applicants).
The Morehead-Cain and the Robertson scholarships are administered by private foundations and do require separate applications.
More information about the University's merit scholarships – including the Johnston, Pogue, Carolina, and Colonel Robinson programs – can be found at the Scholars Program Web site.
Work-Study Employment
A limited number of work-study jobs are available to help students earn a portion of their University expenses. Most of these jobs are on campus, with a small number in community service agencies. Undergraduate work-study jobs require an average of 10 to 12 hours per week and pay more than the federal minimum wage. Graduate students may be assigned work-study assistantships, with teaching and research responsibilities in their departments or schools. Eligible students can apply for a variety of work-study jobs to match their skills and interests. There is no separate application; simply apply for financial aid by March 1.
Need-Based Loans
The University administers a number of student loan programs, both federal and institutional, which provide low-interest, long-term loans to undergraduate, graduate, and professional students who are eligible for aid. Most financial aid packages to undergraduate students include loan offers, and the majority of aid to graduate and professional students is in the form of loans. Repayment of most loans begins six months after the student ceases to be enrolled at least half time.
Federal Perkins loans can be deferred and/or partially cancelled if the borrower is fulfilling certain categories of public service, such as teaching, military service, or service in the Peace Corps.
After a student applies for aid, the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid determines which type of loan is most appropriate based on student need and the funds available. More information on loan programs can be found at the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid Web site.
Students always have the opportunity to reduce or decline loans when accepting a financial aid offer. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions.
Non-Need-Based Loans
Students not eligible for need-based aid, or requiring funds beyond available need-based aid, may apply for unsubsidized federal loans. Unlike need-based loans, these programs have higher interest rates, and interest is generally not deferred. Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loans are available upon request, subject to certain borrowing limits. Overall loan limits for dependent undergraduate students from Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loans and Direct Subsidized Loans are $5,500 for first-year students, $6,500 for sophomores, and $7,500 for juniors, seniors, and fifth-year students. Independent undergraduate students may borrow up to $9,500 for the first year, $10,500 for the second year, and $12,500 for the third and subsequent years. Graduate and professional students may receive up to $20,500 per year. Federal Direct Unsubsidized and Subsidized Loans have an origination fee of 1.068 percent, deducted from each loan disbursement. Those interested in Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loans should contact the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid.
Parents of undergraduate students who do not receive need-based aid, or who need additional assistance, may apply for Federal Direct Parent PLUS Loans. The interest rate on Parent PLUS Loans is 6.84 percent; an origination fee of 4.272 percent is charged. Repayment begins within 60 days after the last disbursement of the loan. More information is on the Federal Student Aid Web site.
Laptop Grants
All Carolina students are required to have a laptop computer. The University offers grants – in the form of a credit at Student Stores, which sells a variety of laptops – to cover the cost for qualifying first-year students who apply for financial aid.
Questions and Assistance
Financial aid counselors are ready to help. Visit the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid or e-mail email@example.com to get in touch.
For Graduate Students
The Graduate School offers a variety of funding opportunities to assist graduate students in funding their graduate programs from admission through graduation. The Graduate School provides information and support to students applying for external fellowships, as well as providing fellowships and other direct financial support to graduate students, which supplements what the individual school or department provides. For updated information, please see The Graduate School's funding resources Web site.
Graduate Tuition Incentive Scholarship: Helps cover the remaining cost of in-state tuition for graduate students who are receiving external funding awards in support of their thesis or dissertation research
Graduate Student Opportunity Fund: Assists students with small, nonrecurring, unusual and unexpected academic expenses
Graduate Student Transportation Grant: Assists students with some of the transportation costs necessary for travel to a regional, national, or international academic conference or professional society meeting to present their dissertation research
The Graduate Funding Information Center is a resource for graduate students seeking information on funding sources for independent research, collaborative projects, fellowships, program development and other scholarly activities.
If you have questions about funding, you are welcome to e-mail the Fellowships Office at email@example.com.
To receive alerts when funding opportunities are posted, subscribe to The Graduate School funding listserv.
Departmental Awards
Teaching and Research Assistantships
The majority of assistantships available to graduate students are awarded by academic schools and departments. Approximately 2,500 graduate, research, and teaching assistantships are available through specific departments. Graduate assistantships are also available through the University's various research institutes and centers. Stipends, responsibilities, selection criteria, and application and notification procedures vary from department to department. Applicants should discuss with the program to which they are applying the specific funding opportunities available to graduate students.
Federal/State Fellowships and Traineeships
A number of state and federally funded fellowships and traineeships are also available in some departments. Students must be pursuing graduate training in specified fields of study to be eligible for these awards. Interested students should request additional information from their academic departments.
Application Deadline
Prospective students may indicate when applying for admission their interest in an assistantship and should discuss application deadlines with their prospective departments.
If you have questions about departmental awards, please contact the department to which you are applying. A list of degree programs, together with contact information, is available on the Web.
Financial Aid
The Office of Scholarships and Student Aid works with graduate students who need financial aid to meet the costs of attending the University. Financial support may be available through small grants, from federal or private lender loan programs, and from the federal work-study program, in the form of either hourly paid campus jobs or teaching/research assistantships.
To be eligible for financial aid programs administered by the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid, a student must be enrolled in a degree program on at least a half-time basis, a United States citizen or permanent resident, making satisfactory progress toward completion of the academic program, and, if applicable, registered for Selective Service. The student may not be in default on a loan previously received for college expenses nor owe a refund on a scholarship, grant, or loan from a previous enrollment period.
Graduate students who wish to apply for financial aid to meet the costs of attending the University must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The application should be completed online. However, a paper application may be obtained from high schools, most college financial aid offices, or in person at the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid. In completing the FAFSA, the student must list UNC–Chapel Hill (code number 002974) as one of the schools to receive the FAFSA information. The information on the FAFSA will be analyzed by an agency contracted by the federal government. The agency will send information and an analysis of the student's eligibility for financial aid funds to both the student and to the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid.
A student should not wait for admission to a graduate program before applying for aid. An applicant should submit the FAFSA by March 1. If additional documentation is needed to complete a student's application for financial assistance, the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid will notify the student. A student who completes the file promptly can expect to receive notice of an award decision early in June.
