Safety & Security Tips for Life on Campus, Fall Quarter ‘23

Welcome back to campus! As we work our way through the first week of the quarter, I wanted to take this opportunity to provide some tips from the Department of Safety & Security.

Parking

Permits are required to park on campus for all days each quarter, Monday-Friday from 6:00am-4:00pm, excluding weekends and holidays. Citations with fines are issued for ADA violations, PCC parking violations, Visitor Lot violations, and other illegal/hazardous (fire lane, blocking roadway, not parked in a parking stall, etc.).

Students can purchase parking permits in Student Finance (aka Cashiers). Part-Time employment requests can be sent in by department office. Full-Time employee permit requests must be verified by Dean, Director, etc. Daily permits are also available for purchase at pay stations located at the East Gate, West Gate, in front of Bldg. 7000, in the parking lot west of Bldg. 1600, and on the walkway between Bldg. 2900 and 3000.

Tips 

Here are a few tips that can help you in having a wonderful experience here at Shoreline:

  • STOP! If you haven’t already, save the after-hours Campus Security number in your phone now! 206-235-5860.
  • Park in high traffic and well-lit areas.
  • Remove all valuables from your vehicle and remove items from view.
    • Even if a bag only has dirty gym clothes in it, a prowler may break in hoping it contains valuables.
  • If you observe a suspicious person or vehicle on campus, call security.
  • Always keep your phone and photo ID on your person in the event that you need to contact assistance.
  • If you witness or observe concerning behavior or posts on social media, report it to Campus Security by calling the office or after-hours number.
  • PLEASE NOTE: Do not report injuries, criminal activity, or request immediate assistance via email, as email is only monitored sporadically during office hours. 

For questions, please come to the Safety & Security Office (5102), call us at: (206) 546-4633 or email: safetyandsecurity@shoreline.edu
