Welcome back to campus! As we work our way through the first week of the quarter, I wanted to take this opportunity to provide some tips from the Department of Safety & Security.

Parking

Permits are required to park on campus for all days each quarter, Monday-Friday from 6:00am-4:00pm, excluding weekends and holidays. Citations with fines are issued for ADA violations, PCC parking violations, Visitor Lot violations, and other illegal/hazardous (fire lane, blocking roadway, not parked in a parking stall, etc.).

Students can purchase parking permits in Student Finance (aka Cashiers). Part-Time employment requests can be sent in by department office. Full-Time employee permit requests must be verified by Dean, Director, etc. Daily permits are also available for purchase at pay stations located at the East Gate, West Gate, in front of Bldg. 7000, in the parking lot west of Bldg. 1600, and on the walkway between Bldg. 2900 and 3000.

Campus Security

We have a uniformed Campus Security Officer on campus and on-duty 24/7/365. Our personnel are trained and equipped to respond to a vast variety of calls that include, but are not limited to, basic first aid, medical emergencies, security emergencies, and calls for assistance.

To reach our team during business hours, call 206-546-4633, or visit the Safety & Security Office in the Foss Building, Room 5102.

After hours or if the office does not answer, the on-duty Campus Security Officer can be reached at 206-235-5860

Courtesy Services

Our department provides vehicle lockout assistance, vehicle jumpstarts, security escorts, and more!

Lost & Found

The official campus Lost & Found is located in the Safety & Security Office, Room 5102. We hold onto items for 3-6 months before disposing of them.

Tips 

Here are a few tips that can help you in having a wonderful experience here at Shoreline:

  • STOP! If you haven’t already, save the after-hours Campus Security number in your phone now! 206-235-5860.
  • Park in high traffic and well-lit areas.
  • Remove all valuables from your vehicle and remove items from view.
    • Even if a bag only has dirty gym clothes in it, a prowler may break in hoping it contains valuables.
  • If you observe a suspicious person or vehicle on campus, call security.
  • Always keep your phone and photo ID on your person in the event that you need to contact assistance.
  • If you witness or observe concerning behavior or posts on social media, report it to Campus Security by calling the office or after-hours number.
  • PLEASE NOTE: Do not report injuries, criminal activity, or request immediate assistance via email, as email is only monitored sporadically during office hours.

For questions, please come to the Safety & Security Office (5102), call us at: (206) 546-4633 or email: safetyandsecurity@shoreline.edu

Respectfully,

Your Department of Safety & Security

Dear Students, 

We are excited to share with you an exciting, new, one-of-a-kind study away program we are launching this spring. Join Professors DuValle Daniel, and Brook Zimmers in Alabama this March to follow a portion of the Freedom Riders Civil Rights Trail.  

Learn how African Americans and their supporters in the 1950s and 60’s risked their lives and faced unimaginable odds to fight for the right to vote and to be treated as equal citizens of the U.S.  Students will visit several critical sites of the U.S Civil Rights Movement including the 16th St. Baptist Church in Birmingham, the Freedom Rider Memorial in Anniston, and the National Voting Rights Museum in Selma just to name a few. 

Enjoy the benefit of small group discussions, impactful experiential learning, and a chance to experience history in a new way. 

The Study Away program in Alabama will be offered during Spring Break in 2024 from March 22-29. The cost is $1775 which includes a $500 allowance for airfare, $320 allowance for meals, and double occupancy accommodations.  To be eligible, you must take one or more of the Winter quarter 2024 classes: 

  • African American Literature (ENG 247 or 247W) with Professor Daniel 
  • English 102 
  • Communicating for Social Change (CMST 203) with Profession Zimmer 

Remember, there is still time to add a class for fall so if you are interested but need a prerequisite for any of these courses you can still register until October 3, 2023.   

For more detailed information, please view the following video or the attached flyer. 

This is a flyer with lots of text describing the study away program. It also has some older black and white photos.
