Remote Summer Quarter Plans

Dear Colleague,

Based on current health data and the ongoing timeline for widespread vaccinations, the College will continue remote learning and operations through summer quarter (ending August 24, 2021). Information about fall quarter plans will be shared with the campus in the coming weeks after we have considered additional data.

Summer Quarter Classes

We will continue to offer primarily online, asynchronous courses, with limited exceptions for face-to-face learning in pre-approved programs. We are also exploring options for additional synchronous online and/or hybrid class offerings and will provide additional information as it becomes available. While so many of us are eager to return to campus in greater numbers, we also know the safest choice for our students, employees, and the community at this time is to continue to limit as much in-person gathering as possible.

Campus Summer Schedule

As with prior summer quarters, the College will move to public operating hours of Monday through Thursday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Friday 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. These summer operating hours will be in effect Monday, June 28 through Friday, September 3, 2021.

Supervisors are responsible for working with their staff to confirm remote operation summer schedules that meet the business needs of the College, as well as to inform the general public and the Shoreline community of the upcoming summer change to operating hours. Staff members need to discuss and confirm remote operation summer work schedules with their supervisors and ensure updated summer schedules are entered into the TLR system by the first week of June 2021. Please note: Staff may request to keep their current schedule (for example, five days of 8-hour shifts) and supervisors are encouraged to approve these requests where appropriate as long as the business needs of the College continue to be met.

If you have additional questions about summer business hours or staff schedules, please contact Human Resources.

Thank you,

Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
