Residence hall update & student move-in schedule

September 5, 2019 by 1 Comment

After years of planning and months of preparation, our student residence hall is finally a reality! We are thrilled to welcome our first-ever student residents. At the time of opening, we expect to be at 90% occupancy, with a rich mix of domestic and international students across various ages and programs.

Here is what you need to know about what’s happening at 7000 Campus Living this month:

PARKING AND TRAFFIC DURING FURNITURE INSTALLATION:

  • Campus entrances and parking will be impacted September 7-13, when all furniture will be delivered and installed in the building. We ask for your patience during this big event! There will be several work crews, large trucks, and pallets of furniture temporarily staged in various parking areas and walkways.
  • Employees are asked to avoid using the main entrance to campus September 7-13. Please enter at the West Gate to reduce traffic congestion near Building 7000.
  • The visitor parking lot will be closed during this time and visitors will be directed to enter at the West Gate and park in the west lot (fees and permits will not be required).
  • One of the vendors, Correctional Industries, will have an experienced crew working onsite during these dates. While many schools, including UW, routinely use their services with no issues or complications, we wanted to let you know about their presence on our campus.

STUDENT MOVE-IN SCHEDULE:

  • Please anticipate increased traffic to campus September 14-22 for student move-in.
  • Resident Assistants and Avery Whittington, Assistant Director of Residential Life, will move in September 7-8. New international students will move in September 14-15. New and continuing domestic students and continuing international students will move in September 20-22.
  • Students will be assigned three-hour blocks between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. on those days to move their belongings in. Rolling carts will be provided to assist them. Be ready for a buzz of activity at the main campus entrance and visitor lot as parents and others help students settle into their new living arrangement.

RIBBON-CUTTING EVENT:

  • Join us for the official ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday, September 26 at 11:00 a.m. in front of 7000 Campus Living. Students and employees will be able to tour the building at 12:00 p.m.

CAMPUS USE OF THE BUILDING:

  • For the first several weeks of fall quarter, we will not accept reservations for campus events in Building 7000 to ensure that our students’ move-in process goes smoothly and they have first priority to use the space as they settle in. Room reservation information will be made available later in the quarter. For questions about future reservations, please contact Jenifer Adelotte.

Thank you!

Two New Acting Associate Deans for HO/PE + Business

September 3, 2019 by Leave a Comment

The College is pleased to announce the appointment of two acting associate deans for the division of HO/PE + Business. As you all know, with the departure of Dean Sen in early summer, we have been attempting to identify a leadership oversight model and person(s) to guide the division for the upcoming year. Nominations were requested and several persons were considered as a part of that nomination process.

Mary Burroughs will take on the role of Acting Associate Dean for Nursing and Health Occupations. Mary received her BS in Nursing from Seattle University and her MS in Nursing Leadership from Seattle Pacific University. She was a nurse at the University of Washington Northwest Hospital and Medical Center for over 20 years before coming to Shoreline Community College in 2008. She was the acting associate dean of nursing last year and recently accepted the position of associate dean of nursing.

Kyle Winslow will take on the role of Acting Associate Dean for Business and PE. Kyle received her BS in Business Administration (marketing concentration) from Fitchburg State University and her MS in Business Administration (marketing concentration) from City University (Bellevue, WA). Prior to coming to Shoreline, she worked at South Seattle College from 1994 through 2001 as a part-time faculty member. Kyle took a bit of a break to raise her family and started working with Shoreline in 2013 and, most recently, was a priority associate for our business administration program.

Both appointments will begin on September 3, 2019 and end on June 30, 2020. Both individuals will report directly to the Vice President of Student Learning Phillip King and will have a seat at the SL Leadership table. Please note that this structure represents an accommodation for this year and it may or may not represent how the division will be structured in the future – we have much work to do as a college to discover how all of our divisions are structured as we reimagine Shoreline.

We are confident that both Mary and Kyle will provide excellent leadership and guidance to each respective area.

New temporary Title IX/EEO Coordinator

September 3, 2019 by Leave a Comment

Dear Campus Community,

Our Title IX/EEO Coordinator duties have historically been assigned to existing employees in addition to the full-time workload these staff members already hold. During the past year, the campus has experienced an increased workload trend for Title IX/Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) coordination such that it now supports the need for a full-time position in this area. With that the mind, the College is pleased to announce that it has identified an administrator to provide procedural oversight for Title IX and Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) compliance while a full assessment of the long-term needs for this work is completed across the upcoming year.

Please join me in welcoming Tricia Lovely as the temporary Title IX/EEO Coordinator for Shoreline through June 2020. Ms. Lovely comes to us from her role as the Title IX Coordinator for Edmonds Community College and will be located in Room 1016 of the Administration Building beginning September 3, 2019. This addition of Ms. Lovely as the full-time Title IX/EEO Coordinator will allow the College to better support the ongoing needs of our campus community and our community standards.

Please note that Title IX/EEO questions, concerns or complaints can continue to be directed by phone (206-546-6664), email (TitleIXCoordinator@shoreline.edu), or online (https://www.shoreline.edu/title-ix) to the Title IX/EEO Coordinator at any time.

Thank you!
Veronica Zura
Executive Director of Human Resources
