Between the Lines is our quarterly book club that meets at 11:30 in room 9202 on Wednesdays.

The Center for Equity and Engagement, Campus Diversity Action Committee and Shoreline’s Ray W. Howard Library invite you to read The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, which tells a riveting story about the life of Henrietta Lacks and her family and the “untold story of how her cells were taken without her knowledge and have become one the most important tools in medicine.”

For more information about Between the Lines book club visit the website.

Spread the news! Applications for the 2014 – 2015 school year are now available and more information can be found on the SCC Foundation scholarship page.

Deadline to apply is 4 p.m. on Wednesday, April 9, 2014.

The following scholarships are new this year:

• Jack Rogers Memorial Scholarship
• JD Humphreys Memorial Clean Energy Scholarship
• Joseph W Sullivan Nursing Scholarship
• Troy Wolff Memorial Humanities Scholarship

There are scholarships for students who will be new to SCC in the upcoming school year and for present SCC students who will be continuing their studies during 2014 – 2015.

Contact Lynn Yaw in the SCC Foundation office, room 1005, (206) 533-6783.

Students can attend a single event rather than the entire series.  To do this they need to contact Larry Fuell to confirm that there is space available. They then need to pay $8 through the Foundation (covers the cost of the briefing material).
