Faculty and Staff Commencement Cap and Gown Orders Due May 5

Commencement will be held on Sun., June 7, 2015 at 2 p.m. in the gymnasium. All faculty, administrators and staff are invited to wear commencement attire. Your participation is encouraged as a tribute to the dedication and achievements of our 2015 graduates.

The deadline for ordering caps and gowns is extended to Tuesday, May 5. You can go online to order your commencement wear. Our cap and gown vendor, Herff Jones Cap and Gown, has set up an online ordering system that is very easy to complete for PC users, and somewhat slower for Mac users. You can access the Herff Jones website here.

All Users:
Customer number (46000591000) and the order number (#3207250).

Your order must be submitted no later than Tuesday, May 5. The College covers all rental expenses for regalia ordered and returned by the established deadlines, but not thereafter.

If you ordered during the past year:

  1. Scroll down to your name under “Faculty Name” to verify or edit your size and degree information. (NOTE: Support staff and administrators are also listed under “Faculty Name”).
  2. If no changes are necessary, click on “Finished”.

For first-time orders:

  1. Anticipate a short system delay to place your order; there may be a delay from the time you select “New Faculty Member” and click “Continue”.
  2. Please be sure to click “Confirm” when you’ve completed and verified your order.

You may also order through Lisa Smith in the Student Leadership Center via email at lsmi@shoreline.edu. We do encourage you, however, to try the online order system first.

Please mark your calendar to pick up your commencement wear between June 1 and June 5, but no later than Friday, June 5 by 3 p.m., in the Student Leadership Center, PUB 3rd floor. After that time, you may pick it up on the day of Commencement at the Issue Room in the lower level of the gymnasium, between 12:30-1:30 p.m.

After the commencement ceremony, we encourage you to wear your regalia to the reception for pictures with students. It is imperative that all caps, gowns and hoods be returned on Sunday, June 7, at the conclusion of the ceremony at the drop off area in the PUB, room 9202. We must ship the commencement wear the following day in order to avoid late charges.

Please contact Lisa Smith at (206) 546-5862 or lsmi@shoreline.edu if you have any questions or concerns.

So far, only 17 people have submitted their orders. We strongly suggest that those who have already submitted their orders check the verified orders list here as computer errors/glitches may occur, and there is always the chance that your order may not have processed or come through as verified. Please call Lisa Smith if this happens to you!

Thank you for your attention and understanding!!

Call for Recyclables for Earth Week

earth weekWe need your clean recyclables!

The Earth Week activity “Making recycled art” will run all week long and encourage participants to make art out of recyclables. To make this event a success, we’re asking you to help us collect enough “art supplies” by donating your clean recyclables to be turned into someone’s masterpiece. You can help all this week (and possibly into next), by bringing your clean recyclables from home or your office to the PUB 1st Floor, Room 9102. There should be a bin set up inside that room to collect the recyclables – if the bin is full, please tuck them in the back corner fairly out of the way.

We need CLEAN plastics, bottles, jars, cardboard, etc. – anything recyclable will do.

Thank you for helping make this event a success!

The Earth Week Committee
