Suspended Operations – Today,12/30, at 2:00 p.m.

Due to a widespread Microsoft outage that has left us without access to many critical systems, Shoreline Community College is suspending operations effective 2:00 p.m. Today.

All employees will be paid for their scheduled work time. A limited number of essential or required employees will remain on campus to support critical operations, including:

  • Safety and Security
  • Parent Child Center
  • Custodial Services

Supervisors of essential or required staff have been notified.

We will send a follow-up update later this evening with an update on Microsoft and guidance regarding work expectations for tomorrow should there be any changes to normally scheduled operations.

Thank you for your flexibility and understanding as we respond to this unexpected disruption.

Wave of Gratitude

Waves of Gratitude to Carrie Cutler of the Counseling Center for Empathy, Responsiveness, and Compassion

The door to the Counseling Center is always closed to ensure student and counselor privacy and respect, but as soon as you walk in, you are met with a friendly and welcoming presence who is Carrie. She approaches you with compassion and understanding, and eager to help you-whether you are a student, a colleague, or a community guest-placing you in the best and warmest hands. It’s difficult to narrow down a specific situation because this gratitude shout-out is truly a wave that encompasses all she does for the Counseling Center and the College.

Carrie is also supported by an exceptional team of counselors and interns, all of whom demonstrate a genuine passion for fostering students’ personal wellbeing and academic success. The college is fortunate to have such an amazing team and valuable student resource.
