We look forward to seeing all members of the campus community at the New Employee Meet & Greet.

Thank you.
Shoreline will host a flu immunization clinic from 9 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 21, in Room 9202 PUB. Immunizations will be available by the Seattle Visiting Nurse Association for students, faculty, and staff.
The association can bill most major health insurance plans – Regence, Premera, Group Health, United Healthcare, Molina, Community Health plan, Coordinated Care, and Aetna – for the flu immunizations. They do not bill Cigna, Kaiser, or TriCare. In order to process the billing, those receiving a flu shot must complete a patient consent form, which includes name, address, date of birth, and individual insurance subscriber number.
For those without insurance, the shots are $28, which can be paid in cash or check. Credit or debit cards are not accepted.
More information about vaccinations is available on this flyer and at www.cdc.gov/flu.
According to health officials, in addition to vaccination, personal preventative measures are among the most effective in preventing getting and spreading diseases such as the flu. Recommendations include:
Ongoing efforts by the college to promote flu awareness and health include:
The college website has additional information about measures in place regarding infectious diseases.
Building on the success of last year’s 50th-anniversary event (Party Like It’s 1965), we’ve decided to celebrate another decade of Shoreline’s legacy. So now we’re going to party like it’s 1975!
Please join us for Party Like It’s 1975: A Campus and Community Celebration Fri., Sept. 23 from 6-9 p.m. in the PUB Main Dining Room. It’s FREE!
Join us in welcoming in a new fall quarter with music, munchies, and memories from the year 1975. This FREE event is family friendly and open to all. Costumes are welcome but optional.
Entertainment will be provided by the fun and funky Disco Ballz.
The Library will begin the 2016-17 academic year in a temporary location in 9203, aka the PUB’s Fishbowl, while the 4000 Building gets its finishing touches. For Mon. and Tues., Sept. 19-20, the Fishbowl site will be providing library services (including course reserves) 7:30 a.m. – 5 p.m., and then on Wed. and Thurs., Sept. 21-22, we’ll extend those hours to 7:30 a.m. – 7:30 p.m. On Fri., Sept. 23, we’ll close at the Fishbowl at 3 p.m. in order to move our operations back to 4200 and 4300.

We are very grateful for everyone’s patience as we complete this 4000 Building construction project. We know you’ll find it all to be very much worth the wait.
Dear Colleague,
Each of us are required to report any Title IX issues we are aware of to our Title IX Coordinator at TitleIXCoordinator@shoreline.edu. Title IX is a landmark federal civil right that prohibits sex discrimination in education. It is not just about sports; it is a prohibition against sex-based discrimination including sexual harassment, gender-based discrimination, and sexual violence. Title IX does not only apply to female students, it protects any person from sex-based discrimination, regardless of their real or perceived sex, gender identity, and/or gender expression. All students and employees are protected from any sex-based discrimination, harassment or violence.
To help create a safer campus environment for all students and employees, and to assist you in knowing your reporting responsibilities, I am sending you an email on September 15 that contains a link to important training about Title IX. The training covers topics that are prevalent on college campuses today regarding sexual assault and sexual violence our students may experience during their college journey. Research has shown sexual assault may occur early in a college student’s experience. The training also covers the student’s rights and our reporting responsibilities.
This on-line training is provided by LawRoom and will take approximately 90 minutes to complete. There will be a printable certificate after completion of the training. In order to be the best advocates for our students on this very important and sensitive issue in their lives, I encourage you to display this certificate in your work area so students know you have had the training and are able to assist them if needed.
As a college community committed to creating a healthy learning environment, I know you will join me in completing this very important Title IX training as soon as possible. Please watch for this email from me on September 15 with the link to take this training.
Respectfully,
Cheryl
