Media producer, Rob Berg will be set up in two locations on campus next week to record individuals or groups who wish to share a short greeting for the whole campus.

If you have questions, contact Rob at rberg@shoreline.edu. We’ll edit all the messages together to share next week before we all take a well-deserved break.  See you there!

Remote workers can submit their holiday messages from their home computer.  Record in Zoom or via your phone, then email Rob.  However, if you use your phone, we kindly ask that you record your message horizontally and not vertically. Deadline for home submission is EOD Friday 12/12.
