Coach Brady moves to Head Coach at Bellevue

The Shoreline Community College Athletic Department has accepted the resignation of Head Men’s Basketball Coach and Recreation Specialist II, Donald Brady. Brady has been with the college since 2014. His teams were known for their up-tempo style of play on offense and tenacious on-the-ball defense. His best season was this year, when his team won the Northern Region Championship and he was voted Coach of the Year for the Northern Region.

He was also the equipment, facilities, and game manager in the Athletic Department. Brady has accepted a new position at Bellevue College as the Head Men’s Basketball Coach with other duties to be assigned at a later time.

We want to thank Coach Brady for his dedication and commitment to the Shoreline Community College Athletic program and wish him the best in his new position with Bellevue College. Brady’s last day will be April 30, 2017.

Shoreline Community College Athletics Department will begin immediate recruitment for a replacement in both positions.

Join us for the Spring 2017 Campus Update #1: Why do we value Free Speech? Fri., April 14

Join us on Friday, April 14 in the PUB’s Main Dining Room (#9215) from 1:30-3:30 p.m. for a conversation (entitled Why do we value Free Speech?) with the ACLU of Washington’s Deputy Director Michele Storms related to the issue of First Amendment rights on college campuses.

Join this interactive conversation about how we express our ideas in a diverse society and what it means to disagree and live in community. Some questions we will consider are:

  • What does it mean to speak out when our ideas and expressions clash?
  • How do we function as a society when we don’t agree?

Come explore ways to address the challenges of living together in the face of differences in expression and ideas.

Information on the Spring 2017 Campus Update #1 was first announced on the April 3, 2017 Spring Message from President Roberts.

The April 14 Campus Update will be recorded and the link to the video provided after closed captioning is completed.
