Important Student Updates: SPRING QTR

Student Message:

Welcome to Spring Quarter! Here are some important reminders about masks, vaccine attestation, operating hours, and parking. 

MASKS 

Masks are voluntary for spring quarter, but there may be some occasions where masks are still required:  

  • Masks are required in clinical and other health-care settings (including the Counseling Center) and on College shuttles and vans.    
  • Masks may be temporarily required or recommended during a COVID-19 outbreak, when community levels are high, or for those who test positive and are returning to campus after isolation at home.   

Please note:  

  • Any student has the option to wear a mask for any reason, at any point.   
  • Individual instructors or staff members cannot require others to mask in their classrooms, offices, or departments. 
  • COVID-19 vaccination verification or eligible exemption will continue to be required for all employees and on-campus students. Please attest to your vaccination status by April 17th.   
  • Stay home if you are sick, and report symptoms or COVID-19 exposures via this form for direction on health and safety steps needed. 
  • The College will monitor the level of COVID-19 in our community and if conditions change, updated guidance will be communicated to students and staff.   

VACCINE ATTESTATION 

Students new to taking classes on campus or those with prior holds on their accounts need to attest to their vaccination status or an eligible exemption by April 17, 2022. Holds will be put onto accounts of students who have not done so. Students taking classes entirely online are not required to attest to their vaccination status. 

CAMPUS OPERATING HOURS 

  • Monday-Thursdays 8 am-5 pm: all services will be available in person, as well as online.     
  • Fridays 8am – 4:30 pm: all services will be available online. 
  • For a list of exceptions, please check the Campus Operating Hours page. 
  • The PUB (9000 building) will be open for you to access Avanti Market, package lockers, and study spaces. 

PARKING 

Parking on campus remains free for spring quarter; no permits will be required but hazardous/illegal parking will accrue fines.   

QUESTIONS? 

  • Open office hours with the COVID-19 Support Coordinator: Thursdays, 10:30 am – 11:30 am, via Zoom.         
  • Email covidsupervisor@shoreline.edu or call 206-495-7744 during regular College operating hours.  Check the COVID-19 Updates site for the latest information.     

We hope you have a successful start to your Spring Quarter! 

SCC : Waves of Gratitude

Waves of Gratitude for Janel Middleton of Enrollment Services for Dedication! Janel has worked many overtime hours in evenings and weekends to handle the immense workflow currently in Enrollment Services. That department is always busy, and the ctc transition has added a lot of work. And she is still smiling when I see her. I am so grateful to her and others working so hard on behalf of our students and the college. Anonymous

Waves of Gratitude for Brandon Fryman of Elearning for Inclusive Excellence, Respect, Community Engagement and DEI. I have so many questions regarding ctcLink and Canvas like grades, time off, contracts, and don’t get me started on Canvas. I always have questions and go to Brandon for help. He is always there and if he doesn’t know the answer, he goes and finds it and then helps. As a new instructor, he has taught me so much about DEI in the classroom. I cannot thank him enough.

As a reminder, for those wishing to acknowledge the work of fellow shoreline staff members or a group at Shoreline, you need only submit a Waves of Gratitude form for individuals or a Shoreline Shoutout for groups.  Thank you from the Employee Recognition Committee – Rob, Wanda, and Megan.

TSS email delivery change April 11 to prevent unauthorized email senders

Summary

On April 11th TSS will implement a change to prevent unauthorized senders from sending email as Shoreline.

Background

TSS technicians have been working to resolve the issue causing some Shoreline email to go into spam folders, especially for Gmail users. Working with departments across campus, we have identified all valid email delivery systems associated with the college, including our Microsoft Outlook and third party systems such as RAVE, Mailchimp, Salesforce, etc. Starting April 11th we will block email delivery systems from sending as Shoreline if they are not ones we recognize. This will impact any third party email delivery systems that are unknown to TSS. If you have implemented email systems unknown to TSS or believe you are affected by this change, please submit a support request at https://support.shoreline.edu.
