SCC : Waves of Gratitude

Waves of Gratitude for Janel Middleton of Enrollment Services for her dedication to staff and students.  Janel has been a rock star! She stayed very late one night to assist a manufacturing instructor submit grades. Way out of normal working hours. Her kindness and dedication to support us has been extremely helpful and appreciated. Anonymous

Waves of Gratitude for Officer Banik of Safety and Security for respect and Internal Customer service. Officer Banik hand delivered the parking passes I needed and had forgotten to request. Safety and Security always shows me the best internal customer service and I am grateful to have them on campus. Wanda Waldrop Manufacturing

Waves of Gratitude for Jenna Durney Schlein of Workforce for Inclusive Excellence, Respect, and Student Engagement. Jenna not only makes sure that all her existing students get their funds on time. But she reaches out to potential students to see how she can help. She makes an effort to include students in decisions and is willing to take the time to make sure students understand their rights and responsibilities. Jenna is willing to go above and beyond to make sure that all students can get the funding they need to go to school. Anonymous

Working Together Towards an Antiracist Washington CTC System

Dear Shoreline College Community:

I am writing to you with a very important update regarding a statewide event supporting antiracism in the SBCTC system. The event registration is available now and the College is encouraging staff who have an interest to attend this event.  This will be a virtual event held on April 21 and 22, 2022.

A small primer on the event included the following:

This conference is geared toward white-identifying folks with European ancestry and people who benefit from white privilege. We invite faculty, staff, administrators, and other professionals who want to evolve in our journey towards being anti-racist and work to collaboratively dismantle systemic racism at our colleges and universities, our CTC system, and our communities.

Alexander Mitu, in the office of student learning, equity, and success, can assist any staff person with registration and payment.  Please contact Alex if you have an interest in attending this event.

Thank you for your interest and support of creating a coalition of white people committed to making systemic change in our Washington State community and technical college system.

Sincerely,

Steve Hanson

Interim President
