Information about payroll checks during a campus closure

Several employees have asked questions related to receiving payroll checks in the event the College needed to temporarily close the campus due to the COVID-19 virus.

If for any reason the College is unable to print checks due to a closure, the State Board has the ability to redirect the printing of checks to an alternate location, and they would print and mail the checks on our behalf.

If you have any additional questions, please contact Delene Bryant  (dbryant@shoreline.edu or 206-546-4515).
