Day at a Glance

Self Care Tip
Understand what you can, and cannot, control. You can control your attitude, your own kindness and grace, and your behavior. You cannot control the actions of others, predicting what will happen, or how long this will last.

Quote of the week
“May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears”

Shoreline Moments
A short quote from a student who got awarded book support from the Foundation Student Success Emergency Grant:
“ I just want to say thank you for this opportunity In allowing me to finish my degree and also, I hope you stay safe so you can continue to help others such as myself in this time of crisis! Again thanks a lot and take care!”

Do you know a student with room for a two- or three-credit class in their Spring schedule? Or maybe someone who has a skill or two to brush up on or could benefit from a class focusing on career change or stress management? Late start and fast tracking classes are still open for registration!

Classes range from Career Exploration and Life Planning to Rapid Start with MS Word with start dates between now and late May.

Spread the word, or sign up for a class yourself.

Note: Students cannot register for these classes via the online registration portal. Rather, they should go to the late start and fast tracking Spring schedule, decide which class they’d like to join, then email the request to register to sccadmis@shoreline.edu. Students should send the request from their Shoreline email and include the following information:

• • Full name
  • SID
  • The name and item number of the class

Email Chris Melton with any questions at cmelton@shoreline.edu.

• A wave of gratitude from Lisa Smith to Bonnie Madison and Bill Li!
Bonnie Madison and Bill Li from TSS deserve medals of honor for exhibiting the patience of Job, when helping me to trouble shoot my Little Surface Pro for various different issues. I cannot thank you both enough! 🙂

• A wave of gratitude from Jenna Durney to Lisa Malik!
Lisa was amazingly helpful to me. I had a tight deadline with to return something to the state and requested a report from her. She got me the report quickly and was so nice about it. Lisa is an incredibly helpful person and we are lucky to have her as a part of Shoreline CC.

• A wave of gratitude from Ginger  Villanueva to Linda Du!
Linda is enthusiastic, kind, and always willing to jump in and help. Her contributions are innumerable, from outreach to supporting current students to inspiring our student ambassadors. There are so many ideas for projects and new programming that would never come to fruition without her steady follow-through. We’ve said “wouldn’t it be nice if…” and then voila! it was done. I appreciate you, Linda, especially during this intense, stressful time.
