With a beach theme, Classified employees and others gathered for the 2014 Classified Social at Shoreline Community College.

The annual event is traditionally scheduled for the spring quarter prep day, the day between the last day of classes and the first day of finals. The event is made possible through the generosity of the Puget Sound Automobile Dealers Association (PSADA), the Foundation, Administrative/Exempt Supervisors & Senior Administrators.

Dean of Students Kim Thompson acted as emcee and introduced Interim President Daryl Campbell who thanked the classified employees for their service to students.

The event included prizes for best beach hat, beach shoes, overall appearance and for guessing the number of jelly beans in a jar.

“It was a great turnout,” Thompson said. “Thanks to all the supervisors and administrators who support this event and enable folks to attend.”

Terry Taylor will take over as Acting Dean of Social Sciences, Library and Parent-Child Center starting July 1, 2014.

“Really, it should be acting acting dean because the position I’ll be in, now held by Bob Francis, is acting dean,” Taylor said. Francis will move from dean to Interim Vice President for Academic and Student Affairs, also starting on July 1.

Interim President Daryl Campbell appointed Taylor on Monday, June 9.

“I’m very pleased to have Terry in this role,” Campbell said. “He’s a respected and longtime faculty member who can bring significant knowledge, awareness and stability for a really undetermined transition period.”

You may notice “testing in progress” signs throughout the FOSS building.  Those may likely be Special Services students.  Since these walls are not sound proof, we would appreciate quiet near those rooms.  Thanks for your consideration and respect for our students needs.
