Welcome to fall quarter! The construction team has been working hard all summer to update the campus. Some areas are still under construction, so here is where you’ll find the services you need to be successful this quarter.

Library Services:

  • Borrow or reserve books/textbooks in the Pagoda Student Union Building (PUB), room 9203, until September 26.
  • The Library main doors will open on October 3. Until then, please use the first-floor entrances on the east side of the building to access the Library and Learning Centers (there are stairs and an accessible elevator on the first floor). 

ID Cards and Automated Teller Cash Machine (ATM):

  • ID cards can be obtained now in the Bookstore and the HigherOne ATM is located right outside the Bookstore.

Tutoring Services and Learning Centers:

Computer Lab:

  • The computer lab remains on the first floor of the 4000 building and is open and ready to help.

Continuing Education Options (CEO) Program:

  • The CEO program relocated to the first floor of the FOSS 5000 building. Some remodel work will continue in this new combined Workforce and CEO area for a short time, so please be patient as we build a great space.

Ongoing Construction Areas:

  • Some construction will continue in the 1400 Classroom Building, 1600 Theater Building, 1900 Parent Child Center, 2500 Manufacturing Building, 2700 Science Building, and 2900 Annex Classroom Building. Please be aware of and obey caution tape and fencing that marks the construction areas.

Once the construction is complete, the newly remodeled areas of campus will be an even better place to learn! The College is happy you are here and wishes you a great fall 2016.

Nicholas Sironka, a former Fulbright scholar, was born in Narok, in the Rift Valley province of Kenya.

Sironka teaches the techniques and history of Batik art, along with an understanding of traditional Maasai culture.

Through his artwork, Sironka is preserving the wisdom and the knowledge of Maasai traditions.

Although Batik is not of African origin, its roots as an indigenous fabric art are closely aligned with the spirit of simplicity and unity that Sironka is sharing with the world.

As a Maasai, Sironka is determined to portray his people’s culture truthfully, with dignity and beauty.

Similar to coaching programs used by entrepreneurs, business owners, and professionals, Shoreline Community College provides students with Success Coaching to help you develop and grow your academic skills. Coaching is an ongoing professional relationship that works with you on study strategies, goal planning, time management, balancing life’s priorities, focus, motivation, and organization. Coaches also help you identify and connect to other resources. Coaching is not counseling, advising, or tutoring.

constitution
Shoreline Community College joins schools across the nation in celebrating Constitution Day on September 17, 2016.

Constitution Day is an American federal observance that recognizes the adoption of the United States Constitution, pays tribute to those who helped to create the historic document, and honors all those who have become U.S. citizens. It is traditionally observed on September 17, the day the Constitution was signed in 1787.

At Shoreline, we pride ourselves on being a welcoming and inclusive campus that proudly upholds the democratic ideals and rights that are established in our U.S. Constitution. I encourage you to study the Constitution to learn more about the principles that have guided the United States for more than two hundred years.

Learn more about the Constitution here.
