Day at a Glance

This past week, Shoreline College continued to advance our commitment to student success, equity, accessibility, and community partnership through a number of important initiatives. 

We were proud to celebrate National Disability Independence Day and Disability Pride Month with our annual flag-raising event. Our thanks to Miranda Levy, Director of Student Accessibility Services, for her leadership and unwavering advocacy on behalf of students with disabilities. Her work helps ensure that Shoreline remains a welcoming and accessible community for all. 

We also received exciting news that Shoreline has been awarded an EVOLVE Grant through the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges to support our Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion efforts. Through this initiative, we will collaborate with colleagues from Clark College, Clover Park Technical College, Columbia Basin College, Seattle Colleges, Yakima Valley College, and Pierce College to share best practices and advance innovative equity-centered work. Special recognition goes to Vice President Brian Ramos and his team for their leadership in securing this opportunity and positioning Shoreline as a key partner in this statewide effort. 

Our outreach and retention teams also strengthened community relationships through a visit with Centro Cultural Mexicano, where we met with Mariana C. Martinez and learned more about the organization’s impactful work supporting the Latino community. Alongside Brian Ramos, Lizbeth Agapito, Savena Garrett, Jack B., and Elle Rivera Soto, we explored opportunities for future collaboration! 

In addition to these activities, the college continued significant work in several key areas. Teams made continued progress on accreditation planning and preparation, advanced important policy review and development efforts, and engaged in ongoing financial stewardship and budget planning to support the institution’s long-term sustainability. We also met with community partners and stakeholders to explore future projects and partnerships that will expand opportunities for our students and strengthen Shoreline’s impact throughout the region. 

Thank you to everyone whose dedication and collaboration continue to move Shoreline forward. Your work reflects our shared commitment to excellence, inclusion, and service to our community. 

Cheers, 

Jack

Building Updates 

From Thursday, July 16 through Friday, September 4, 2026, we’ll be using a single public entrance to the 1000 (“Administration”) Building. 

What to know: 

1. The west-side doors (facing the 1200 Building) will remain locked. Employees with building keys will still be able to enter through these doors. We’ll post signs on the west side directing visitors to the main entrance. 

2. The east-side doors (the flagpole side, facing the 9000/PUB Building) will be unlocked during business hours (8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.).   

During the summer months, fewer people are typically in the building at any given time due to vacations and varying work schedules. Having a single public entrance will help us greet and assist visitors more effectively.

Shoreline Community College MISSION – Our Purpose 

Shoreline Community College offers accessible, high-quality education and workforce training that empowers students for success. Rooted in our commitment to diversity, equity, and community engagement, we foster an educational environment that contributes to the enrichment of both our local and global communities. 

Hey everyone, 

This week has been an extra busy one in the president’s office.   

One highlight was the opportunity to visit Centro Cultural Mexicano yesterday with some members of Shoreline’s outreach and retention team. We learned a tremendous amount and were inspired by Mariana C. Martinez’s vision for collaboration and for uplifting the diverse LatinX community and the broader community we all serve. It was a valuable experience that reinforced the importance of mission-aligned partnerships and community engagement. Thank you to VP Brian Ramos, Lizbeth Agapito, Savena Garrett, Elle Rivera, and Jack B. for their leadership, creativity, and commitment to improving how we serve our students and our community. 

In addition, a significant amount of time this week was devoted to policy and procedure development and review, ongoing budget work, and supporting institutional planning efforts. I also had the privilege of working closely with the amazing team in Human Resources, where I continue to see the incredible work happening behind the scenes to support our employees and strengthen our college community. Thank you to all our HR colleagues for your dedication, expertise, and partnership. 

As always, I remain grateful for the creativity, leadership, and collaboration demonstrated by so many across the college. Every week I see examples of people stepping up, finding solutions, and working together to make Shoreline an even better place for our students and employees. 

Thank you for all you do, and please look for another update next week. 

Cheers, 

Jack
