Wave of Gratitude

A Wave of Gratitude to Lauren Sandven of the Math Department for Inclusive Excellence and Student Engagement

Lauren Sandven recently completed certification of her course through the Online and Hybrid Quality Course Design Institute, demonstrating a strong commitment to creating a more accessible, inclusive, and student-centered learning experience. Throughout the process, she engaged thoughtfully with the self-assessment, made meaningful updates aligned with the Washington Quality Course Design Checklist, and was intentional about ensuring her course materials, activities, and assessments clearly support student learning. Her work reflects a dedication to equity and transparency, helping students better understand expectations and succeed in the course. This accomplishment not only strengthens her course, but also contributes to a broader culture of high-quality, inclusive teaching on our campus.

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.

Shoreline Fire Training On Campus – 04/13 thru 04/17 – Buildings 2300 & 800

Shoreline Fire Department & partner agencies will be on campus training at buildings 2300 and 800 from 04/13 through 04/17. There will be multiple fire engines and apparatus on campus during these times.

With both of these buildings being demolished in the near future, this presents an opportunity for emergency responders to practice “real life” scenarios.

You may see firefighters on the roofs practicing vertical venting (cutting holes in the roof), rappelling from elevated surfaces, and also using simulated smoke (fog machine) to resemble low visibility conditions. They will not actually be setting anything on fire. 

 If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Shoreline College Safety & Security.
