Day of Learning theme update

Please mark your calendars and save the date for this year’s Day of Professional Learning happening April 26. This year’s theme/focus will be Power and Privilege. This day will be an exciting opportunity for us to come together, learn together, have fun together, and build on our great legacy of creating an inclusive campus culture of support and care. There will be sessions that will count towards Faculty’s 10-hours training requirement, specifically for equity and inclusion, and possibly other categories.

The general layout of the day will include: a light breakfast and welcome, smaller morning breakout sessions, lunch, followed by afternoon group sessions and community building activity(ies).

If you need special accommodations please reach out to Sarah Dunkinson (sdunkinson@shoreline.edu) by Friday, March 22nd to ensure that we can make this day a truly enriching experience for everyone.

If you are interested in facilitating a session and/or leading a discussion group, or for any other questions, concerns, suggestions, please contact Pilar Corder (206.546.5857) or pcorder@shoreline.edu.

With humility and gratitude, Shine!

Initiatives to support students from Art Institute of Seattle closure

Shoreline welcomes all students, and particularly those impacted by the closure of the Art Institute of Seattle. To help those affected students find suitable options in our Arts, Film, and Music programs, the college is supporting a variety of outreach initiatives.

“We understand that students impacted by this sudden closure may be experiencing a range of difficult emotions,” said Nancy Dick, Dean of Humanities. “Our faculty and support services are ready to aid students through this transition so that they can complete their studies and pursue their passion for arts at Shoreline.” Read the complete news article here.

If you hear of any students interested in the Arts, please encourage them to attend the Arts, Film & Music Info Session on Tuesday, March 19, 2019 at 4:00 pm in Room 9208. Program faculty and advisors will be available to guide students through transfer options and provide tours of our facilities and campus. For specific questions about transferring credits or program advising, please refer students to Alicia Zweifach in Advising: azweifach@shoreline.edu, 206-546-4559.
