This message from President Cheryl Roberts was sent on Nov. 2, 2015 by email to all Shoreline Community College employees.
Dear Colleagues,
The new strategic plan for Shoreline Community College is nearing its final draft for presentation to our Board of Trustees in early 2016. In forming the plan, we have witnessed unprecedented participation from hundreds of members of our campus community. There have been thoughtful and rewarding conversations with both employees and students as well as with members of our broader local and business communities. Thank you for all the work you have done thus far to shape our future!
The Strategic Plan Task Force and the Executive Leadership Team will work through the remainder of the year to refine the goals and objectives of the plan. At the same time, we want to have a discussion about our current vision and mission statements. This will allow us to inform the Board of Trustees, which sets the vision and mission of the College, that our campus community has spent time reviewing the statements for any proposed modifications. The purpose is not to propose a new vision or mission, but to ask whether anything in the current vision and mission is out of alignment with the strategic goals as they have been revised following the group discussions during Opening Week.
Laura Rehrmann, Special Assistant to the President, will facilitate two meetings to discuss the vision and mission statements. In reviewing the vision and mission, you will see the draft strategic goals as they now stand. I hope that you will be able to attend one of these sessions:
- Thursday, November 12, 3:00–4:30 p.m., Room 1402
- Tuesday, November 17, 8:30–10:00 a.m., Room 9201
There will also be an opportunity to contribute online for those who cannot attend in person.
In early winter quarter, we will share the new strategic plan with the campus community one last time, prior to presentation to the Board of Trustees. Then the work begins to join together in implementing our preferred future over the next five years.
Thank you again for your valuable participation as our strategic plan is developed. We are nearing the finish line!
Warmly,
Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
President

Join us Wed., April 29 in Room 1402 from 3-4:30 p.m. for a Strategic Planning SWOT Session. All members of the Shoreline campus community welcome!
The Strategic Planning Task Force is off to a fast start and moving forward to gather information both externally and internally to the college. As part of the internal process, there will be a series of SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) sessions that will last 90 minutes to receive input from all sectors of the college. All members of the campus community (students, faculty, classified staff and administrative exempt employees) are strongly encouraged to attend one of the sessions listed below. This is your chance to make a difference!
At these meetings, Tom Mesaros from the Alford Group will facilitate the discussion regarding the college’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in both large group and small group formats. The atmosphere will be informal, lively and collaborative.
Here are some sample questions that may be asked:
• What are college’s primary strengths in academics, scheduling, facilities, human resources, decision making, processes, student services, finances, etc.?
• What are college’s primary weaknesses in academics, scheduling, facilities, human resources, decision making, processes, student services, finances, etc.?
• What are the college’s key opportunities in academics, scheduling, facilities human resources, decision making, processes, student services, finances, etc.?
• What are the primary threats to the college?
This is your last chance to participate in this round of meetings, so please come join in: Wednesday, April 29, 3-4:30 p.m., Room 1402.
If you are able to attend only part of a session, your input is still very welcome. Thank you in advance for your willingness to participate and provide your input.
