Passing of Retired Faculty Member William Hugh Thomas

William Hugh Thomas established the Law Enforcement (Criminal Justice) Program at Shoreline Community College and retired in 1981 after teaching at the College for 16 years.

William’s grandson Seth informed Professor of Criminal Justice Linda Forst of his grandfather’s August 6th passing—three months short of his 99th birthday.  In turn, Professor Forst communicated to Seth, the legacy that his grandfather left at Shoreline Community College and the wonderful stories of “what a great person and visionary” his grandfather was.

Shoreline Early Alert

Dear Campus:

The Shoreline Early Alert (SEA) team would like to thank staff and faculty for continuing to support our students and connecting them to resources for academic intervention, support, and services! Many students are reluctant to ask for and seek out help, so we appreciate your partnership in letting them know you are referring them to resources and strategies used by Shoreline’s most successful students.

Since an early alert works best when it’s early, this is a reminder that with an eight-week quarter the sooner we can connect with students the sooner we can support them in their success.

Examples of SEA referrals include:

• Low test scores
• Unexplained excessive absenteeism or tardiness
• Pacing in an online class
• Not doing assignments
• Financial matters
• External concerns

What happens next:

After our team receives a referral a member will work to respond within 24 hours to both you and the student. We continue to reach out to the student in order to set up an initial meeting where we assess the student’s needs and most appropriate resources. *REMINDER: Intervention is a process and may not produce immediate results. Our goal is to reach out to the student early in the quarter and connect them to the appropriate resources.*

Please view our attached flyer and visit our site to learn more about SEA or to view our Referral Form.

We look forward to continuing to work with you and to support our students!

Thanks,
SEA Team
