Free parking on campus Sept. 12-21

September 1, 2016 by Leave a Comment

To facilitate the needs of students and their families in preparing for the new quarter, parking on campus will be free Sept. 12-21. No fees are required to park Sept. 12-21, and no citations will be issued for not paying parking fees. We ask that visitors to campus do still park in the appropriate parking areas during this period of free parking. If you know any students who still need to register for classes, let them know to take advantage of the free parking and come on down to campus to get registered now!

Safety & Security will post signage on the parking machines on Free Parking Days.

Thank you.

Chief Justice Charles Smith, father of Stephen Smith, passes

August 31, 2016 by 1 Comment

Dear Colleague,

It is with much sadness that I share news of the passing of Charles Z. Smith, father of Stephen Smith, Vice President of Human Resources and Legal Affairs.

Chief Justice Charles Smith broke ground as Washington’s first African-American state trial judge and Supreme Court justice. He worked for more than 50 years as an attorney and served as an associate dean of the UW School of Law, where he graduated and later taught. Throughout his legal career, he worked tirelessly for causes of social justice and human rights.

The Smith family said in a statement, he “lived an exemplary life founded on the three pillars of truth, justice, and freedom,” adding that “his legacy extends beyond his family to the larger community that he mentored and served.”

He is survived by his wife of 61 years, Eleanor M. Smith, four children, six grandchildren, and four siblings. Funeral details are pending.

Please keep Stephen and his family in your heart and thoughts as they cope with this deep loss.

In support,
Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
President

A message from President Roberts: Campus winter closure

August 26, 2016 by Leave a Comment

Dear Colleague,

As we move into fall quarter, I would like to announce that Shoreline Community College will be closed December 26-30, 2016 in observance of the winter holiday break with all offices on campus closed during this time. College employees will be taking leave and no services will be available to the public during this period. Please note that the campus will continue to be patrolled during the closure by Safety and Security personnel.

Classified staff should take advantage of professional learning opportunities that will be offered in order to earn compensatory time for the winter closure. Please watch for additional information on this in the coming weeks. Please note this week is meant for the College to be closed and only those employees working on pre-approved essential projects will be on campus during the closure.

The College will reopen on Tuesday, January 3, 2017, following observance of the New Year’s Day holiday. Winter quarter classes will begin January 9, 2017.

Thank you,
President Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
