Off We Fly Now: Campus Theater, 1600 Bldg
Thurs., June 14: 7:30-9:30pm
Shoreline Community College Theater presents the world premiere of Off We Fly Now, which will be performed as a mixed media experience in collaboration with Shoreline’s Visual Communications Program to combine live action with animation.
Snow White, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and Sleeping Beauty, have found a way to escape from their centuries-old fairy tales. Arriving in the “real world,” they quickly attract the attention of the media and the public. As the four attempt to discover the meaning of life, they end up becoming reality show celebrities. Then they begin to realize that the real world, similar to the fairy tale world, is full of tricks and traps. Fame, love, youth, and marriage are each unsolved riddles.
Off We Fly Now challenges the boundaries between fairy tales and the truth. Perhaps, after all, the tales were written to prepare us for life in the real world.

Dear Student,
This is a follow-up to an earlier post, informing you that beginning Tuesday, May 29, the roadway that runs along the back side of the PUB (Building 9000) would be closed. This closure is necessary so that contractors can dig a trench to accommodate the wastewater line for our new student residence hall.
At the time of the original post, the closure was expected to last until Fri., June 8. Due to some unforeseen and complicated utility crossings (buried electrical and water lines), our contractors need additional time to get the wastewater line installed. As of today, we anticipate the work to take approximately two more weeks, with the roadway reopening Monday, June 25. A photograph of the work being performed is below.
As with the previous post, a map showing the campus roadways is also below, with the location of the closure indicated with a blue rectangle. In order to reach parking lots that would ordinarily be accessed by means of this road, it will be necessary to drive around on the main campus roadway. It may be easiest to use the West Gate to access the main roadway.

We appreciate your continued patience. As before, if you have any questions about this closure, please contact Edwin Lucero in Safety & Security (elucero@shoreline.edu) or Stuart Trippel (strippel@shoreline.edu).
Thank you!

Dear Student,
On Monday, June 4th, a member of the public was vocally expressing his religious views in our campus courtyard. I want to acknowledge that some students and employees – including myself – may have experienced a range of emotions, including feeling hurt, being offended, or distressed by the person’s comments and sign. This individual’s messages do not align with our College’s Community Standard statement.
As a College community, we do not subscribe to hateful and/or disrespectful actions. We value creating an open and welcoming campus environment for all. As a public college, we also uphold individual rights to freedom of speech and freedom of expression, even if we disagree with a person’s ideology.
The College can also take action in accordance with our policies and procedures. This means that if a person’s behavior disrupts the teaching, learning, and/or business operations of the College, or threatens someone’s physical safety, a response team from Safety & Security and Executive Team will organize and respond to the situation accordingly. Depending on the circumstance, our actions and responses may vary and could include asking students to follow directions from administrators in order to de-escalate a situation.
If anyone on campus takes an action that makes you feel harassed, discriminated against, or threatened, you are encouraged to respond in one of two ways:
- If you are concerned for anyone’s physical safety, contact Safety & Security at 206-546-4633 (or 911 if it’s an emergency)
- If you witness or know of any incident that goes against our Community Standard, please report it to the Community Standard email address (communitystandard@shoreline.edu) to initiate an investigation and response
Finally, if you were affected by the incident on Monday and are still in need of support, please know you may contact the Counseling Center (206-546-4594, FOSS Building 5000, Room 5245).
Based on prior experience, we know this may not be the last time we see such an incident on campus, so I hope this information provides reassurance that the College has a response plan in place for situations like this, and that there are steps you can take to report and share information. The more we understand what’s happening on campus, the better we can respond with a collective action that helps us live into the values of our Community Standard, while ensuring we uphold First Amendment rights, as required by law.
Respectfully,
Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
President
