On behalf of Shoreline Community College, we wanted to reach out to the campus community to express our concern for students, faculty, staff, and family members who may be impacted by the recent event that unfolded at Michigan State University.  

We are devastated by another senseless act of violence in the form of a mass shooting. As a college community, we must not only stand with all members of the MSU campus community but take action against the consistent assaults on our communities.  We will continue to focus on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion as a mechanism to achieve social justice for all. We are responsible for our community, let’s choose to lead with love.   

We recognize the trauma incidents such as these can have on our college community and want to remind all employees of the resources available to support you through this unfathomable time. Please do not hesitate to seek out services and should you see someone in need, please extend support.  

Please know that we have resources available to both students and employees to counsel you through any potential emotional distress from this event. 

CAMPUS RESOURCES 

Employees may access services and support at any time through the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) at 877-313-4455 (as provided by the Diversity Equity Officers Commission). Their service is confidential and free. We urge you to keep this number readily available in the event you or a colleague need to lean into this level of support. The EAP is available and here for you, should you or a family member want or need support. As a reminder, the EAP offers the following:  

• Problem assessment and short-term counseling  
• Referrals to providers and community resources

Dear Campus Community,

As a reminder, the College currently provides a total of four (4) electric vehicle charging stations located in the Visitor’s Lot (2 spots) and in the West Parking Lot (2 spots) for use by all of campus.  These charging stations are clearly striped and signed. 

1. These spaces are designated as charging stations for electric vehicles only.  Non-electric vehicles will not be allowed to park there and violators will be cited.
2. The stations are currently open to Shoreline faculty, staff, and students at no cost for a maximum of 2 hrs per day.  
3. The stations are not parking spaces and the responsibility for knowing when an electric vehicle should be moved remains with the vehicle driver.
4. Parking enforcement, and appropriate use of the stations, are monitored by Safety and Security.  Citations will be issued if the stations are improperly used.    
5. The stations are operational Monday – Friday, from 7:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m.  Restricting services to these days and times ensures that the College is not gifting state resources to the general public.
6. To activate an account for electric vehicle charging, please contact safetyandsecurity@shoreline.edu.

While the College continues to assess the campus needs for charging stations for updates where needed, your help by complying with the rules above is much appreciated.

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Office of Safety & Security
