Reminder: Focus Sessions for ELT, Faculty, & Admin/Exempt Employees Thurs., Jan. 28

January 28, 2016 by Leave a Comment

Dear Colleague,

As part of an ongoing effort to clearly define the College’s identity, our position in comparison to other Community Colleges, and to better communicate with our students and communities we serve, we have asked the Clarus Group to build upon their successful work conducted this past fall to increase enrollment and retain our students through to completion. Listening sessions are organized by constituency group. The schedule of sessions for College employees is as follows:

Wednesday, January 27:
Deans: 8:45-10:15 a.m. in the Admin bldg. Board Room 1010M
Faculty: 12:30-1:45 p.m. in Room 1811
Classified Employees: 2-3:30 p.m. in Room 1811

Thursday, January 28:
Executive Team: 8:45-10:15 a.m. in the Admin bldg. Board Room 1010M
Admin/Exempt Employees: 12:30-1:45 p.m. in Room 1402
Faculty: 3:45-5 p.m. in Room 1402

Refreshments will be served in each session and you may feel free to bring your lunch during the midday sessions if you’d like. Employee input is extremely important and will help us make our communication efforts more successful.

The sessions have been structured in such a way to allow you to voice your opinions about your impressions of the identity of the college in the community. The Clarus Group representative will visit with you about:

  • Descriptors of the College (both positive and negative)
  • Unique strengths of the College
  • Icons and images that best describe the College
  • Promises/expectations made by the College to the students and communities we serve
  • Competition for the College and misperceptions about the College – again both positive and negative

The results of these sessions will be used to convey the benefits the College provides to both the individual student and our communities as well as provide a consistent, integrated message of our College’s Vision and Mission. Other sessions include our students, donors, alumni, transfer partners, business and community leaders, high school students, Board of Trustees and the Foundation Board of Directors.

Please reply to this posting with either YES you will be able to attend or NO you cannot attend or MAYBE you will attend to mbrueggeman@shoreline.edu. We will send a reminder email prior to the listening session.

Thank you so much for your help and we look forward to seeing you at one of the sessions listed above.

Warm Regards,

Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
President

Ebbtide article illustrates why Shoreline is focusing on rights and values for all

January 26, 2016 by Leave a Comment

Shoreline Community College and many other colleges are making strong steps forward to address the serious national issue of sexual harassment, violence and discrimination on college campuses.

“It is our core value that everyone who comes to this campus feels respected and supported,” President Cheryl Roberts said. “The experiences of two students quoted in a Jan. 16, 2016 article in the Ebbtide student newspaper are exactly why we take sexual harassment, violence and discrimination so seriously.”

Starting in the fall of 2014, President Roberts initiated a conversation and process that resulted in the recently adopted Community Standard, a statement of the college’s values that support an inclusive and nondiscriminatory environment, now posted across campus. In 2015, President Roberts established a work group for Title IX, the federal law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in federally funded education programs. As a visible step toward increased awareness, Title IX flyers are now displayed across campus and sexual violence resource information cards are available.

“As noted in the Ebbtide article, Vice President Stephen Smith is the college’s Title IX Coordinator and we established a network of seven deputy coordinators (see list below) who are trained and available as resources to students and employees. The college also offers free confidential counseling to support students,” Roberts said. In addition, Roberts said that Safety and Security Department personnel take all reports seriously and investigate initial information provided.  All sexual harassment reports follow a standard protocol and are promptly forwarded for additional investigation for the Title IX Process.

“We know that not everyone is comfortable coming forward to ask for help,” Roberts said. “We are working to rollout educational opportunities for both students and employees. We want everyone to know our values, what their rights are, and that the college is here to help.”

Steps that everyone can take right now include:

  • Educate yourself about Title IX and participate in campus activities that raise awareness
  • Know your rights and speak up when you see or experience something that makes you feel uncomfortable.
  • Support others who have experienced sexual harassment, violence or discrimination.
  • Exhibit the values of the Community Standard in your own actions.
  • Work together to create a campus culture that values all individuals and supports prevention, accountability, and safety.

The College is committed to developing and implementing a multifaceted approach to addressing sexual discrimination. “We know there is no single approach that will address every situation,” Roberts said. “That’s why we will build on these first efforts and continue to get this message out in as many ways as possible: Sexual harassment, violence and discrimination are not only against the law, they are against the values of this community and we won’t tolerate them. Our Community Standard requires that we demonstrate respect for each other at all times.”
