Dear Campus Colleagues:
As we begin fall quarter, we would like to remind you about Shoreline Early Alert (SEA).
SEA is a referral program to serve ALL (domestic and international) students on campus. SEA is designed to provide academic intervention to students encountering difficulty in the pursuit of their academic goals. We recognize that intervention is a process and may not produce immediate results. That is why it is our goal is to reach out to the student early in the quarter and connect them to the appropriate resources.
MAKE A REFERRAL!
Use the SEA Referral Form rather than sending individual emails. A SEA Team member will respond to the referral within 24 hours by reaching out to both you and the student.
We look forward to continuing to work with you and to support our students!
Thanks,
The Shoreline Early Alert (SEA)
When to Refer
If you’ve observed factors like those listed below, and you have previously reached out to the student without seeing positive change, it’s time to fill out the SEA referral form.
Examples of student difficulties that may lead you to make a referral:
• Low test scores
• Unexplained excessive absenteeism
• Tardiness with indication of transportation or family concerns
• Pacing in an online class
• Not doing assignments
• Financial matters
• External concerns
Purpose of SEA
SEA is intended to:
• Be a positive and supportive experience for students
• Support students who may be showing or have indicated possible academic “red flags”
• Direct students to appropriate resources
SEA is not intended to be:
• Punitive, disciplinary, or a means for enforcing classroom policies (e.g. cell phone use, disruptive behavior, absenteeism associated with classroom policy, etc.)
• For behaviors of concern, please see the Behavioral Intervention Team
What Happens Next
There a series of steps that occur in order:
1. Employee submits a referral
2. SEA Team member assigns an appropriate employee to reach out to the student
3. The employee makes three attempts to contact the student
4. The employee attempts an intervention to direct the student to appropriate resources
5. The employee will follow up with referrer
Throughout this process, the referrer may contact a member of the SEA Team regarding the referral.
Visit the intranet to make a referral.
If there are other concerns in the classroom that worry you about a student or if you see something questionable or concerning, visit https://www.shoreline.edu/care-team/default.aspx
Hello! The Commencement 2021 Committee is hard at work planning this year’s ceremony which will take place on Saturday, June 19th.
This year, our Commencement ceremony will be hosted virtually, and will either be pre-recorded or presented in real time. We are also exploring the possibility of hosting an additional socially-distanced drive-thru celebration around one of our campus parking lots. Precautions, such as the use of face masks, would be taken to reduce risk to all participants in adherence with local, state, and federal health guidelines.
As we embrace this opportunity to center the achievements and voices of our 2021 graduating class, we would like to invite faculty and staff to respond to two brief questions (<2 min. to complete) about our proposed options for Commencement 2021. All responses will be collected anonymously. Your feedback will help guide us in our planning and is greatly appreciated! (Students also received an invitation to participate in a student version of this survey.)
Please contact the Students, Equity, & Success Division at vp-ses@shoreline.edu with any questions about this survey.

Greetings,

If you need to reach the Cashier’s Office, please leave a voice or email message at 206-546-7850 or accountsreceivable@shoreline.edu and a staff member will respond as soon as possible.
Thank you for your understanding,
The Cashier’s Office
Hello, Faculty Friends, and Welcome to Spring Quarter!
As always, Student Accessibility Services (SAS) is sending notifications to instructors who have students who have requested accommodations.
I’d also like to share our “How to Respond to Accommodation Requests” document, which describes the steps to take when a student discloses a disability to an instructor and asks directly for an accommodation. Additional faculty resources are available on the SAS For Faculty web page.
Finally, SAS is making all appointments through Microsoft Bookings now, so students can more easily set up appointments through our website. Please do not hesitate to refer students to our main SAS web page or to email questions to sas@shoreline.edu.
As always, do not hesitate to contact me directly via email at mlevy@shoreline.edu or on Teams with any disability-related questions or concerns!
