Summer operating hours

Dear Colleague,

Capitalizing on the success of the past two summer quarters, I am pleased to confirm that for the summer of 2018 we will again adjust our summer operating hours.

Beginning the week of Monday, July 9th through Friday, August 31, 2018, the College will shift to the summer public operating hours of:

Monday-Thursday 8:00 a.m. – 5: 00 p.m.
Friday 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

Supervisors are responsible for working with their department staff to confirm summer schedules that meet the business needs of the College, as well as helping to inform the general public and Shoreline community of the upcoming change in our summer operating hours. Please discuss and confirm your summer work schedule with your supervisor, and ensure your updated summer schedule is entered into the TLR system by the July 2018.

Please direct questions regarding the summer business hours or staff schedules to Human Resources at scchr@shoreline.edu at any time.

In appreciation,
Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
President

 

Our Day of Learning is coming soon!

Dear Colleague,

On Friday, April 27, instead of a typical day of work, Shoreline employees will engage in a day of learning from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. This is an exciting opportunity for us to come together, learn together
, and build on our great legacy of creating a campus culture of support and care.

We’ll enjoy a mix of presentations and interactive sessions to introduce the Inclusive Excellence framework, the opportunity gap, and focus on the “three Es” from our Strategic PlanSocial Equity, Ecological Integrity, and Economic Viability.

Here are some important points to note about the day:

  • All full-time Shoreline employees are expected to attend; part-time faculty are warmly welcomed and encouraged to attend
  • Classes will be canceled and campus services will be closed to allow for maximum faculty and staff participation
  • Faculty can earn hours toward the 10-hour training requirement (2 hours of Equity and Inclusion, and 2 hours of Student Engagement)
  • Lunch and refreshments will be provided
  • You’ll receive an email next week with some reading to maximize our learning together

To help us plan the day better for you, we also ask that all participants fill out the attendance form. If you have any questions, please contact Brigid Nulty, Associate Dean of Teaching, Learning, and Assessment.

I look forward to our time to learn together as a community!

Warm regards,
Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
President

Converging Landscapes: faculty exhibit in the art gallery

Work by two Shoreline faculty, Nicholas Enevoldsen and Gary Georger, is on display in the Admin Bldg (1000) Lobby through May 4, 2018.
ConvergingLandscapesFeb18

Nicholas Enevoldsen’s
recent series of perceptual oil paintings titled, “The Modern Spectacle”, utilizes a broad sampling of disparate images—candid scenes drawn from everyday life—to curate a panoramic tapestry of the modern experience. Adorning this vast cross-section of contemporary life is a sea change of anonymous urban spaces whose exact locations are both seemingly familiar yet conspicuously elusive.

Educated as a painter and trained as a potter, Gary Georger is in the endeavor of surface textures and painting with clay. He creates large platters and chargers with exploratory techniques that are technical challenging. In the course of making these forms new possibilities and surfaces develop. The process is the catalyst; it excites or instigates Gary to contemplate the surface. Following the potential, he leads the exploration to create representational and abstractions of landscapes, forms, and figures on the functional wares.

An artists’ reception will be held in the gallery on Tues., April 17 from 3:30-5:30pm.
