Tutoring services is actively seeking tutors in most subjects for fall quarter. Here’s your chance to give back to your fellow students while earning some extra cash and experience for your resume!
Some courses are regularly in high demand, so we need lots of tutors to keep up (e.g.,computer science, statistics, ESL, and nursing). Some subjects get fewer requests, but we also have a harder time finding tutors to fill them (e.g., geology, geography, astronomy, oceanography, political science, and business technology). We also need tutors to help students with most other subjects, from math, accounting, economics, engineering, biology, chemistry, and physics to English, other languages, communication studies, music/music technology, philosophy, and VCT. We especially benefit from students who feel comfortable tutoring multiple subjects and plan to be on campus for at least a couple more quarters.
Please consider applying online or in person in 1103 where we’ll be located and open for applications and inquiries during most of the summer break.
Thank you!

Tiffany McVeety
This Thursday’s Job Seekers’ Roundtable: Four Factors of Entrepreneurial Goal Setting, with Tiffany McVeety
It’s never too late to start a business. In fact, according to a 2014 Kauffman Foundation study, plus 50 workers have launched their own businesses at a higher rate than 20-34 year-olds every year since 1996. And “[b]usiness owners ages 55-64 represented more than 23% of new entrepreneurs” in 2012. As more boomers retire, this number is predicted to grow.
We’re changing the ways we think about work, careers and starting businesses.
Tiffany will explain the nuts and bolts of getting a Four Point Plan together, and how you can put your interests and hobbies to work for you. As always, tasty refreshments and our Conversation Starter blend of coffee will be served. Hope to see you there!
When:
Thursday, August 11
1-2:30 p.m.

EVACUATION DRILL OF 2500 BUILDING – AUG. 9, 2016
Learning what to do in the event of an emergency save lives. Many employees and some students have completed the Get Ready Take Action – All-Hazards Emergency Preparedness Training, either in person or online. Many have viewed the posted training videos for a violent event in progress, or completed additional courses such as Incident Command 100 and 200 for Higher Education. Some have created small emergency kits for their car or workspace. As a community, we continue to strive towards being prepared to face an emergency event.
“For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them.” – Aristotle
The goal of a training exercise is to ensure that in the event of a true emergency, our campus members feel confident in how to respond. While this may be a brief disruption in our day, the value of practicing what to do and where to go is immeasurable.
With that in mind, we will have a scheduled an Evacuation Exercise of the 2500 Building on Tues., Aug. 9, 2016. The intent of the exercise is to practice the quick evacuation of both levels.
When the alarm sounds on Aug. 9, safely and quickly exit the 2500 Building and proceed to the nearest evacuation site. Signage outside the 2500 Building will indicate we are conducting a training exercise.
Please share this information with occupants of the building and the nearby building 2900 Building, where the Pacific Science Center has a children’s event taking place. We will not be evacuating Building 2900.
While this is a practice exercise, we anticipate Building 2500’s occupants to fully evacuate. We thank you in advance for your cooperation. We plan to exercise additional buildings each quarter. For additional information or questions, please contact Director Robin Blacksmith at 206-546-4503 or rblacksmith@shoreline.edu.

Terra Staffing employment specialist and recruiter, Sarah Hoffman will join the conversation at Shoreline Community College’s Job Seekers’ Roundtable this Thurs., Aug. 4 from 1-2:30 p.m. in the PUB 9202. Sarah will impart details about Terra, what you might expect during a placement interview, and who’s hiring. Word is that office staffing companies are at the very least even with requests for workers and numbers of workers to be hired. So it’s a strong possibility that if you need something fast in the temp or temp-to-perm sphere, Terra could be your last stop.
Please bring your resume – and that cover letter we polished up last week to the PUB 9202 from 1-2:30 p.m.
This is a great opportunity to get placed! As always, coffee and light refreshments are on hand, compliments of Central Market.
P.S. – August is a strong month for Roundtable. Here’s what’s coming up:
• 8/11: Tiffany McVeety: “4 Factors of Entrepreneurial Goal Setting?”
• 8/18: Annie Conklin: “How My Home-Based Business Took Off”
• 8/25: Tiffany Lamoreaux: “Applying for Jobs in the 21st Century”
