Dear Shoreline Community College colleagues,
Words cannot adequately express my excitement as I prepare to begin my work at Shoreline. This is truly a remarkable opportunity for me and I look with hopeful anticipation to Aug. 18, my first day on campus, and what the future holds.
William Bridges put it so aptly in his book Transitions, “Transitions begin with an ending and end with a beginning.” I am truly experiencing all the emotions associated with bringing closure to my work at Chemeketa Community College, while feeling all the hopefulness associated with making plans to begin my work with you at Shoreline.
Being part of a vibrant college community is about developing strong relationships – relationships that create the conditions where students can experience the best within themselves as they achieve their educational goals. It’s also important for us to have working relationships and conditions where we can do our best work. I look forward to lively and caring conversations where we focus on ways to do our best work for students and the community we serve. I am also eager to work closely with you to continue the strong tradition of educational excellence at Shoreline.
All the best as you bring this academic year to a close!
With warmest regards,
Cheryl
