Day at a Glance

Shout Out to TSS! TSS always responds to my needs and makes updates, corrects issues, etc. This was especially difficult for the Manufacturing Department working in Georgetown, home, campus or all three! They have rectified unique issues so that the instructors can instruct on both sites. I cannot thank TSS enough! You people rock! The Manufacturing Team

Shout Out to Facilities! The people in Facilities are amazing! They managed a lot of the Manufacturing temporary move, made sure we had what we needed, cleared spaces for staff on campus, and are always so friendly and courteous. It is an awesome group of people who work hard to make our work lives better! You are all appreciated. The Manufacturing Team
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.

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.

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

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.
