Conditions at Shoreline CC: 11/29/22

While campus was cold but clear earlier this morning, snowfall has now begun! The roads currently remain clear, and the campus remains open for all services, however, the College will continue to monitor the changing weather conditions and keep the campus apprised of any operational impacts throughout the day.  Please note, our inclement weather partner Seattle Snow Company, has already visited campus earlier this morning and spread deicer across all campus roadways as a pre-emptive safety measure.   

  • For those employees who feel unsafe traveling to campus, please work with your supervisor for remote work or leave options as needed. 
  • For those students who feel unsafe traveling to campus, please work with your instructor for options. 
  • For those getting questions from students, or other community members, please remember to direct them to the College website for the most up-to-date information regarding campus operations.  Updates will be posted there immediately. 

Please refrain from calling the Safety & Security phone lines for condition updates as those phone lines should remain open for emergencies.

Campus Alert: Incident Update 10/21/22

Dear Campus Community, 

This message is in follow-up to the earlier RAVE and email alert shared regarding an early morning incident on campus.    

At approximately 6:11 a.m. today, a student resident was involved in an altercation with Campus Security and the King County Sheriff’s Office. The incident spilled out of Bldg. 7000 and continued near the King County Metro bus stops on campus resulting in damage to 2 Campus Security vehicles and minor injuries to both Campus Security and Sheriff’s Deputies. The student resident has been arrested and transported to a medical facility for medical evaluation. 

As shared in the initial update, there is no ongoing threat to campus and the incident is resolved. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Campus Security Officer David Banik and Campus Security Officer Karl Hicks for their prompt response and action to this incident, which ensured a quick resolution in the protection of campus. 

This incident highlights the escalating need on campus for additional security resources as the number of incidents grows in response to changing regional dynamics. The college will continue to analyze and make improvements where possible to ensure continued safety and security for the college community. 

The College has begun a multi-faceted investigation into this incident and will continue to engage in active discussions with regard to additional support or resources in response. The College will keep the campus informed as new recommendations are identified.
