BREATHE Flyer 6_2015
BREATHE is a quarterly event that occurs the Thursday before finals week.

BREATHE is coordinated by Counseling Services we partner with multiple campus departments to include Student Leadership, Athletics, Office of Special Services, and Parent Education Program!

Students often report high levels of stress before finals, which can negatively impact their academic performance as well as their physical and mental health.  BREATHE aims to reduce student stress as well as connect students to the SCC community.

Look for FREE activities and giveaways all day!

multicultural week

Students Here and There PUB 9202 from 9:30-10:30 a.m.
American students and International students will have the opportunity to share experiences they have at Shoreline Community College. They will be able to talk about their learning experiences and interactions at Shoreline. We will have small group questions and in the end we will have a whole group report-out about their experiences. The goal of this session is to see if the students will show social interaction out of their comfort zone.

Faculty Diversity at Shoreline Community College – PUB 9208 from 10:30 a.m. – 12 p.m.
With 85% of SCC’s faculty being Caucasian, racial diversity in faculty is looking bleak. How do we address this issue? Why is it important? Come find out and participate as our faculty and others discuss this issue. Hosted and sponsored by the Student Diversity Coalition (SDC). Please read a recent Ebbtide article on the subject here.

PUB Karaoke! – PUB 9208 from 12:30 – 3 p.m.
Stop by, grab some snacks and sing out loud!

For more information about these events, please contact Jamie Ardena in the Multicultural Center at jardena@shoreline.edu, or 206-533-6618.

job-seekers-roundtable“The most interesting and thoughtful over-50 people I have met are those who still have no idea what they want to do.”
-Unknown

This Fri., May 8 join us in FOSS 5116 from 1-2:30 p.m. for a discussion about what it takes to uncover what you want from a career.

When we were young and plotting our career paths and personal lives, most of us thought very little of the day we might have to reinvent ourselves. This is approached with maybe some deeper digging than we could have ever thought necessary. For this deeper career excavation, we need to identify personal meaning and pleasure indicators and how they intersect with our strongest skills.

Please join us this Friday (5/8) and share your experiences on this subject. We’ll talk about six basic pathways suggested by career coach, Cheryl Simpson.

Settled on a job choice? As always, the floor is open for sharing how you found your path, along with the ups and downs of your job search and strategies; all with the usual delicious coffee, snacks, and networking.

Hope to see you this Friday – and as always: Good Luck Out There!
