EVENTS AND NEWS  

Hi folks—as usual, it has been a whirlwind week. Hope you are doing well.  This past weekend we lost power alongside 180,000 other homes in the area. Ours was only out for a couple of days, so not too bad though it was cold.  Fortunately, we have two dogs and lots of blankets so that helped!  I hope those without power have been restored.  If you are having difficulties as a function of the storm and need some assistance at Shoreline, please feel free to contact your supervisor for options.  

The highlight of the week for me was the Foundation Student Success Luncheon. Wow, it was packed with people!! The room was completely full, and folks attended online as well. It was so great to see so many people advocating for students and raising funds to help our students, especially in such a challenging time. I want to thank Diana Dotter and her team Michelle Cimaroli and Josh Krupke for all the incredible work they put into this stellar event. Speaking of being packed, the International Transfer Fair event was equally packed!  It was so great to see our students connecting with over 70 colleges and universities from across the country.  What a great event and resource!  Special thanks to Yushin Wung, Leanne Almughirah, Ginger Villanueva, Cynthia Okawara, John Tankersley, Jessica Galan, and Samira Pardanani for all your work on this! 

Finally, I want to thank the faculty and staff who have been coming to share experiences and ideas with me this week.  In the four months that I have been here, these 1:1 (one on one) meetings have been especially useful for my learning.  Feel free to join a scheduled meeting (below) or if those do not work, I will always find the time. 

Cheers, Jack
