Hello on a very rainy day. I hope all are having a good week.
It was a pleasure to represent Shoreline Community College this week alongside Samira Pardanani at the 77th annual India Republic Day celebration event sponsored by the Consulate General of India, Seattle. The day celebrates the adoption of the constitution in India. It was great to meet with colleagues from across the state and to continue partnering with the consulate.
I also met with two colleagues from NAIS – an organization we work with in China who have connected us with students to take classes online. It is a wonderful organization and their dedication to students is really impressive.
I want to thank all our community members and employees who spoke at the Board meeting yesterday. We are living in very tough times, and it is important for your voices to be heard. I will have some updates to the payroll situation (and progress on other items) in our community check-in on Friday, which I think will be helpful for all.
I am looking forward to the Edwin Pratt event today. It’s part of our history in Shoreline, and such an important event – especially at this time.
Cheers,
Jack

Thank you to our Staff and Faculty Alumni!
Thank you to those who joined us at Shoreline’s first‑ever Winter Alumni Gathering last week.

We’d love your feedback as we plan future alumni activities. Please take a moment to complete our brief post‑event survey.
Volunteer opportunity: If you’re interested in volunteering some time to review scholarship applications in April, please let Kara know at khaney@shoreline.edu! Our volunteer reviewers make it possible for us to provide fair, equitable, and timely award decisions for our applicants.
Volunteers are provided with instructions and a clear rubric to follow for scoring decisions. Reviewing is done online through our scholarship platform, AwardSpring. The time commitment changes depending on how many applications you want to review, but on average it’s between 2-4 hours. Full-time faculty can use scholarship reading as part of their service hours.
Events
TODAY: Join us for the Edwin Pratt Day of Remembrance! RSVP.
This is a special event dedicated to honoring the life and legacy of Edwin Pratt, an influential civil rights leader and community advocate.
Mr. Pratt, a resident of Shoreline, WA, dedicated his life to fighting for equal rights, especially in housing and education. His work remains an inspiration, and his legacy continues to shape our commitment to building an inclusive and fair society.
At the event, we will reflect on his achievements, share stories of his impact, and renew our commitment to the values he championed.
Black History Month Flag Raising
The Black American Heritage Flag represents the culture and history of African American people. Each color and symbol on the flag has a significant meaning that was developed to instill pride in Black Americans and provide them with a symbol of hope for the future in the midst of their struggle for Civil Rights.

Waves of Gratitude to Mark Allen with Technical Support Services for Respect and Student Engagement.
I went to Mark because I had a student that needed help. The student was frustrated because he couldn’t login to his account. Mark without hesitation said, “You want me to go down there and help him? Mark took his laptop and walked with me down to 5200. This was around lunch time as well. Mark sat down with the Student, talked with him like he was his long friend, but still with professionalism.
I think Mark was with the Student for 45mins to an hour. He got the student into his account, set up his email on his phone, and even set up a calendar reminder on his phone for his next appointment. The student was very appreciative of Mark’s service.
Mark is a special employee and deserves recognition for an outstanding job. Submitted by Lt. Emiliano Gamboa, Safety and Security.
As a reminder, for those wishing to acknowledge the work of fellow shoreline staff members or a group at Shoreline, you need only submit a Waves of Gratitude form for individuals or a Shoreline Shoutout for groups.
