International Open Access Week (Oct 24-30) is a time to coordinate across communities to make openness the default for research and to ensure that equity is at the center of this work. Open access (OA) refers to freely available, digital, online information. Open access scholarly literature is free of charge and often carries less restrictive copyright and licensing barriers than traditionally published works, for both the users and the authors. While OA is a newer form of scholarly publishing, many OA journals comply with well-established peer-review processes and maintain high publishing standards. To learn more about Open Access—as well as where to find Open Access articles—check out the Shoreline CC Library’s new Open Access and Open Data guide:https://library.shoreline.edu/openaccess. This year’s theme is “Open for Climate Justice” which speaks to the central role that open knowledge sharing and OA policies play in addressing our world’s most urgent problems. Openness can create pathways to more equitable knowledge sharing and service to address the inequities that shape the impacts of climate change and our response to them (“International Open Access Week”.) Here are a few Open Access Week events happening online: • The University of Oregon Libraries’ “Open for Climate Justice: A Panel with the Just Futures Institute,” Thursday, Oct. 27, 1-2pm (PST), via Zoom. Join the Pacific Northwest Just Futures Institute for Racial and Climate Justice and UO Libraries to learn about the design, theory, and creation of multimedia public scholarship projects. Representatives from the AfroIndigenous Healers, Stories of Fire: A Climate Justice Atlas, and the Atlas of Essential Work projects will discuss how their work is embedded within the concept of climate justice and reaching local, regional, national, and international communities.

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.
