Construction update for fall 2016 and where to find services the first weeks of school

The following announcement regarding construction updates and the relocation of services around campus went out to current students. Please familiarize yourself with the information below to ensure you’re able to help students find their way around campus in the first few weeks of fall quarter.

Thank you!

Welcome to fall quarter! The construction team has been working hard all summer to update the campus. Some areas are still under construction, so here is where you’ll find the services you need to be successful this quarter.

Library Services:

  • Borrow or reserve books/textbooks in the Pagoda Student Union Building (PUB), room 9203, until September 26.
  • The Library main doors will open on October 3. Until then, please use the first-floor entrances on the east side of the building to access the Library and Learning Centers (there are stairs and an accessible elevator on the first floor). 

ID Cards and Automated Teller Cash Machine (ATM):

  • ID cards can be obtained now in the Bookstore and the HigherOne ATM is located right outside the Bookstore.

Tutoring Services and Learning Centers:

Computer Lab:

  • The computer lab remains on the first floor of the 4000 building and is open and ready to help.

Career Education Options (CEO) Program:

  • The CEO program relocated to the first floor of the FOSS 5000 building. Some remodel work will continue in this new combined Workforce and CEO area for a short time, so please be patient as we build a great space.

Ongoing Construction Areas:

  • Some construction will continue in the 1400 Classroom Building, 1600 Theater Building, 1900 Parent Child Center, 2500 Manufacturing Building, 2700 Science Building, and 2900 Annex Classroom Building. Please be aware of and obey caution tape and fencing that marks the construction areas.

Once the construction is complete, the newly remodeled areas of campus will be an even better place to learn! The College is happy you are here and wishes you a great fall 2016.

Sironka Show Poster-web.jpeg
Nicholas Sironka, a former Fulbright scholar, was born in Narok, in the Rift Valley province of Kenya.

Sironka teaches the techniques and history of Batik art, along with an understanding of traditional Maasai culture.

Through his artwork, Sironka is preserving the wisdom and the knowledge of Maasai traditions.

Although Batik is not of African origin, its roots as an indigenous fabric art are closely aligned with the spirit of simplicity and unity that Sironka is sharing with the world.

As a Maasai, Sironka is determined to portray his people’s culture truthfully, with dignity and beauty.

Success Coaching for the 2016-2017 school year

Hello from Success Coaching!

It has been great to see so many familiar and new faces on campus this week and we can feel the energy buzz settling in as the start to the quarter is right around the corner!

We’d like to remind you that Success Coaching is available for all students, that includes Fall Quarter! This 2016-2017 year we look forward to continuing to meet with students and support them towards their goals, identify and address barriers, and connect them to resources. Below is a brief description of what we do and more information can be found our webpage. Let us know if you have any questions and we look forward to continuing to partner with you throughout the 2016-2017 school year! *Please note our flyer below for your use.

Faculty have requested a statement about Success Coaching to be provided on their syllabi and we thank you for this opportunity! Please feel free to use the following statement:

Similar to coaching programs used by entrepreneurs, business owners, and professionals, Shoreline Community College provides students with Success Coaching to help you develop and grow your academic skills. Coaching is an ongoing professional relationship that works with you on study strategies, goal planning, time management, balancing life’s priorities, focus, motivation, and organization. Coaches also help you identify and connect to other resources. Coaching is not counseling, advising, or tutoring.

Thank you,
Nicki Sunwall, Student Success Coach & Erin Wilson, Online Student Success Coach
