Parking Closures for STEAM (Bracken)Project

Dear Campus Community,

As work begins for the new STEAM (Bracken) building, we will be seeing closures of campus parking within the coming week. Please refer to the photo below for reference.

  • Friday, 05/31/2024, the southernmost section of the Upper Event Lot located south of Bldg. 2000 (indicated by the yellow box) will be closed for the duration of the project for construction parking.
    • This section has seen zero staff or student use since college returned from COVID-19 pandemic operations and should therefore have no impact on campus operations.
  • Thursday, 06/06/2024, the top section of the Upper Event Lot and the parking immediately west of Bldg. 1600 will be closed for the duration of the project for construction parking, construction lay down, and construction trailers.
    • This will eliminate the two electric vehicle charging stations west of Bldg. 1600.
      • We are working to bring the 7 new stations north of Bldg. 6000 online before the 1600 stations go down.
      • It is possible that these stations will close before 06/06/2024 as changes have to be made in order to utilize the electrical power for construction. 
    • This will eliminate the motorcycle parking and daily parking permit pay station in this area.
    • Access to the smoking shelter will still be open.
  • The green lines indicate vehicle access that will remain open.
  • The blue line indicates a pedestrian access that will remain open that connects the Lower Event Lot and bottom half of the Upper Event Lot to the main campus area. 
  • There will be sporadic closures of other areas throughout the construction process, as much advanced notice as possible will be given for those. 

If you have any questions, feel free to email safetyandsecurity@shoreline.edu

Respectfully,

Your Department of Safety & Security

Events and News 

Hey folks hope all are well. I’m catching up now from having Memorial Day off. Like you, I am getting through all of these emails! 

The annual Student Leadership Awards event last week was fun! If you haven’t attended before, students invite the college community and organize dinner and music, and then give out awards to SCC leaders for their contributions to the community. It is set up like the Academy Awards where presenters read winners from a card (and don’t know who it is ahead of time). I did warn Sundi (Director of Student Leadership & Residential Life) I would stray from the script (which I typically do). Sundi, Associated Student Government (ASG) President Lina, the ASG leadership, and the Student Affairs team did a wonderful job organizing the event! What fun for the students and community!  

There was a very powerful event in our theatre this past weekend—screening of the documentary film “Seattle Black Panthers Fight for Justice and Freedom.” Our colleagues, “The Meaningful Movies Project” really brought us a great film and avenue for discussion. The event opened with introductions and an amazing spoken word introduction by  

Sharon Nyree Williams which was followed by the film and a panel discussion with Sharon, Director, Producer & Executive Producer Rick DuPree, Seattle Chapter of the Black Panthers Party Co-Founder Elmer Dixon, Shoreline CC Acting DEIA VP Dr. J (Ernest B. Johnson II), and Marques DuPree, Rick’s son (and Director of Photography, Co-Director, Producer & Editor). I learned so much! Thank you to the Shoreline Community College Foundation for sponsoring the event, DarNesha Bowman, owner of Black Coffee Northwest for providing coffee and treats (and celebrating their location opening this fall), and Yummy Gyros food truck for the great food! 

Did you hear that King County Councilmember Rod Dembowski presented a proclamation to Shoreline Community College for our support of the Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander communities? This wouldn’t be possible without the wonderful leadership of Tasha Nālei Jugas and the team members of our WAVES/AANHPI Center on campus. Let’s keep the great work going! 

This week we were happy to welcome officials from the Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge – ADEK to our campus. Shoreline is honored to be one of the first community colleges in the country to be selected to host Emirati students on the Khotwa Rizeup Scholarship Program. The program is part of a broader effort to equip Emirati students with the skills and experiences to contribute to the UAE’s knowledge-based economy. The all-day visit included a welcome by me and AVP Samira Pardanani, meetings with a faculty panel, a campus tour, a working lunch with our academic advisors and other International Education staff, and a meeting with students in the program.  

It’s been a great week here, hope the rest of it goes smoothly for everyone.  

Cheers, 

Jack
