Korean America Day: Framing & Commemorating the History of Koreans in the PNW 1/14/25

January 10, 2025 by Leave a Comment

Join us in celebration of Korean American Day with Dr. Moon-Ho Jung’s lecture on Framing and Commemorating the History of Koreans in the Pacific Northwest. The talk will be held on Tuesday, January 14th from 12-2 pm at Shoreline Community College in the Main Dining Room (MDR) in Room 9215. We will be serving Korean Street Food from a local business.   

Moon-Ho Jung is Professor of History and the Harry Bridges Endowed Chair in Labor Studies at the University of Washington. He is the author of Menace to Empire: Anticolonial Solidarities and the Transpacific Origins of the US Security State (2022), winner of the David Montgomery Award from the Organization of American Historians and the Labor and Working-Class History Association, and the Theodore Saloutos Book Award from the Immigration and Ethnic History Society, and Coolies and Cane: Race, Labor, and Sugar in the Age of Emancipation (2006). He served as the President of the Korean American Historical Society in 2007-2016.  

In 2007, Washington State Governor Chris Gregoire signed a bill designating January 13th as “Korean American Day.” This date marks the first arrival of Korean immigrants to Honolulu, Hawaii in 1903. What is the history of this migration? How and why did Koreans move to the United States, and to the Puget Sound region in particular? This talk will suggest a framework for interpreting local history–a critical step in defining our identities and communities.  

  • Date: Tuesday 1/14/25
  • Time: 12:00-2:00pm
  • Location: 9000 Building, Main Dining Room
    • Korean Street Food will be served

Vehicle Prowls on Campus – 01/08/2025

January 9, 2025 by Leave a Comment

Dear Campus Community,

The evening of January 8th, at approximately 10:00pm, Campus Security was notified of a vehicle prowl that occurred in the student parking west of Building 1300. A second person came forward this afternoon, January 9th, reporting that their vehicle had also been prowled. If anyone else had their vehicles prowled but has not yet reported it, please contact the on-duty Campus Security Officer at 206-235-5860 to generate a report. 

There is currently nothing to indicate that this criminal activity will become a pattern, this notice is just to keep you informed. Campus Security has uniformed Campus Security Officers on campus 24-hours a day. To report suspicious activity, call 206-235-5860 (or call the Security Office during business hours at 206-546-4633). Listed below are some tips that can help to keep you and your vehicle safe on campus.

  • If you haven’t already, save the after-hours Campus Security number in your phone now: 206-235-5860.
  • Park in high traffic and well-lit areas.
  • Remove all valuables from your vehicle and remove items from view.
    • Even if a bag only has dirty gym clothes in it, a prowler may break in hoping it contains valuables.
  • If you observe a suspicious person or vehicle on campus, call security.
  • Always keep your phone and photo ID on your person in the event that you need to contact assistance.
  • If your vehicle is unused for more than 48 hours, check on it and move it to another parking space so that it does not appear abandoned or unattended.

Your safety and security is our paramount concern and we hope to provide a pleasant and comfortable experience here at Shoreline. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please email us at safetyandsecurity@shoreline.edu(monitored only during business hours).

Respectfully,

Your Department of Safety & Security
