Hi Campus Community,  
 

Here are this week’s updates! 

RETURN TO CAMPUS/COVID-19 

  • We are messaging students registered for winter quarter classes with an in-person or on-campus component to attest to their vaccination status. 
  • The last day of the COVID-19 vaccine clinic for fall quarter is Friday, December 17th. The clinic will resume on Tuesday, January 4th, 2022, in the Quiet Dining Room. 

EVENTS AND NEWS 

Reminder of important dates: 

College Campus closed 12/20/21-12/24/21 

The next all-staff email update will occur 1/7/21, unless urgent messaging is required.  

As we enter the holiday period, this is just a reminder of the upcoming December campus closure in observance of the winter holiday break. The specific dates of the 2021 Winter closure will be Monday, Dec 20th through Friday, Dec 24th, 2021. As you prepare for the 2021 winter closure period, please review the following information: 

  • Classified staff should use accrued comp time (or other applicable paid leave) for the four days the College is closed prior to the Friday, December 24th holiday.    
  • NOTE: Classified staff may request supervisor approval to work across the closure (excluding the Friday, 12/24/21 holiday) if desired as a way to support ctcLink implementation tasks or to catch up on work impacted by ctcLink assignments. 
  • For those approved to work, remember that all non-urgent communications and tasks should wait for campus re-opening on Monday, December 27, 2021. 
  • If you have an emergent health condition during the winter closure, you may substitute sick leave for vacation leave on the applicable days. 

Please note questions regarding the information above can be directed to Human Resources at hr@shoreline.edu any time.

Waves of Gratitude for Patricia Wade of eLearning

Respect and positivity

When I have problems with technology, I get snippy. My blood pressure goes up and I can even be downright rude. For YEARS, Patricia has been unfailingly positive, calm, and unflappable in responding to my requests, no matter what tone I use. She always calms me down (and solves my problem). Thank you Patricia for your unwavering positivity and equanimity! -Rachel David Social Sciences

Waves of Gratitude for Jenna Durney 

Inclusive Excellence, Respect

Jenna has been organizing and running events for the college and Workforce for several years now. I want her to know how much I appreciate her. She is also a great sounding board and offers me new ways of thinking. Wanda Waldrop Manufacturing Navigator
