Please Join us Next Week to Record a Holiday Greeting for the Campus

As the year winds down, we would like to invite you to celebrate by sharing your holiday greetings with the campus.  These greetings will then be edited together into a fun video to share with our campus community.  We would love to see a wide range of departments and individuals representing all areas of campus.

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.

  • Tuesday 12/12 11:00am-1:00pm in the Art Gallery of the Admin Building
  • Wednesdays 12/13 1:00-3:00pm in FOSS (exact location TBD)

Wear festive clothes, bring your smiles and messages of hope, peace, and love with your fellow staff members.  We encourage different languages and would love to honor a variety of holidays. Let’s come together and have a little fun.

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 Thursday 12/14.

We’ll edit all the messages together to share the following week before we all take a well-deserved break.  

Hope to see you there!

Shoreline Shout-Out

A Shoreline Shout-out to Human Resources. I just wanted to provide a shoutout to HR particularly to Thao Le, Elise Robinson, Aleksa Overby, and My Mach. They have all been super supportive to eLearning as we navigated the hiring process and classification work for our student workers. They have all been great about answering my questions and moving the process along as quickly as possible. Thanks for all that you do! Submitted by Justin Baggott

As a reminder, for those wishing to acknowledge the work of fellow shoreline staff members or a group at Shoreline, you need only submit a Waves of Gratitude form for individuals or a Shoreline Shoutout for groups.  Thank you from the Employee Recognition Committee.

Events and News 

Hello folks, hope all are well. Here we are back from the Thanksgiving break and of course busy as ever! 

This week has been spent mostly here on campus at my desk doing emails, and in a lot of meetings (I imagine many can relate).  I’m excited about the great work you all have done on the strategic plan, and watching it evolve has been fun to see. 

I can’t believe it’s December already! I hope you all have great plans for the break.  Mine are a bit up in the air at the moment, but I can tell you it will not involve driving long distances… Had a great time visiting with my in-laws, niece and nephews in the Sacramento area over Thanksgiving, but the drive- too much in a short period! Have a great rest of your week.  

Cheers, 

Jack
