Student Services and Activities Committee members needed

The formation of the Student Services and Activities (SS&A) Committee, which oversees funds derived from the school’s largest student fee, is underway. Two open spots must be filled, one faculty member, and one classified staff member.

Joining this committee is a great way to help the Shoreline campus, learn about how student fees are allocated and impact student lives. Meetings are at 2 p.m., every Thursday, beginning Nov. 21 (excluding holidays). The meeting location is to be decided.

For more information, please visit https://echo.shoreline.edu/organization/SSA. In order to login to Echo, use your Shoreline e-mail account information (disregard the part after the “@” symbol). If you are interested in applying, submit an application by accessing the “Forms” tab on the lower left side of the linked page.
