Come Join the Queer Folx and Friends Affinity Group

This is a graphic with diagonal rainbow stripes and a white box that sas Celebrate Pride Month in blue writing.

Hello Shoreline Campus! The Queer Folx and Friends affinity group would like to wish you a very happy pride month! 

Pride Month began after the Stonewall riots, a series of gay liberation protests in 1969. he first Pride march in New York City was held on June 28, 1970, on the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising. Since 1970, LGBTQ+ people have continued to gather in June to march with Pride and demonstrate for equal rights. In June 2000, President Bill Clinton officially designated June as Gay and Lesbian Pride Month, in recognition of the gay activism throughout the years. A more-inclusive name was chosen in 2009 by President Barack Obama: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month. 

If you would like to be part of the Queer Staff/Faculty community on campus, we invite you to join our affinity group. At this time, we are taking applications via e-mail. Please e-mail Clarke Hanson (chanson@shoreline.edu) or Roberto Lopez (rlopez@shoreline.edu). We will then add you to our Teams chat. The group does not yet have a monthly meeting planned, but you could be part of the planning process. We have fun group activities planned for the future, and we hope to join our voices to affect real change on campus. 

Happy Pride Month!

System Outage Update 6/12/23

Good afternoon!

Did you know that today is National Peanut Butter Cookie Day?  I think I just gave you a built-in reason to leave your desks and find a cookie. You’re welcome. Unless of course you are allergic to peanuts, then you should definitely NOT celebrate, and instead can enjoy National Falafel Day or National Jerky Day which are coincidentally also today.  However, if you eat all three of those things at once then you might find yourself celebrating National Call Your Doctor Day which is tomorrow.  It’s true!  I swear, you just can’t make this stuff up. Come to think of it, I probably could…but what would be the fun in that? 😉

Ok, on with the actual updates I have for you from TSS.  Please read carefully.

Listserv

The Listserv service that was destroyed in the ransomware incident has been reenabled. The open faculty distribution list has tested successfully, however since this is an open opt-in list, anyone needing to be a part of this list will need to go through the opt-in process again to repopulate.  This service will be published for use this week and more information will be coming soon about how to opt-in.

Accounts Payable (AP) Check Printing

Due to the ransomware incident, we have been receiving outside assistance with check printing in the AP department.  We are happy to announce the check printing capabilities for the AP department will be restored by the beginning of next week.

Desktop File Recovery Process Update

The desktop file recovery process has seen some significant progress.  We are now at a point where we can shift to dealing with full departments to make sure we don’t miss anyone who did not put in a TSS ticket. Departments may receive a message from TSS requesting a list of employees to make sure we do not skip over anyone.

To view the status of your file recovery request please view it here:File Recovery Status.xlsx

Desktop Restoration

The next phase of desktop restoration is ready to begin.  We will be going over departmental technology needs that were supplied to TSS last month.  More to come on this soon.

  • Important RE: Apple (Mac) Desktops: With regard to the desktop restoration phase, anyone with a Mac desktop in their office should begin preparations for TSS to reimage their machine sometime this summer. We are asking for all Mac desktop users to power on their machine, connect to the Wi-Fi and save off any files they wish to keep to their Microsoft OneDrive location or an external drive.  We want to make sure everyone saves their documents before their device is reimaged.
    • THIS IS ONLY FOR MAC DECKTOP USERS.  IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A MAC, DO NOT TURN ON YOUR DESKTOP UNTIL INSTRUCTED!

Phone System Update

The Teams phones project is moving along, and we will start porting phone numbers next week.  We will be starting with the TSS department and working our way through all departments after thorough testing.  Expect more news on this soon!

Network Restoration

The restoration project has reached a point where we are ready to begin rebuilding servers on the network.  The network foundation work is complete, server restoration will be starting this week. This step in the process is critical and once complete, we will be able to start the work to reestablish databases and connections to other systems.

That’s all for now. Enjoy your evening!
