From musical theatre’s most renowned composer and the winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Best Score, Best Lyrics, and Best Book, Company is regarded as a trailblazer of the dark-comedy, modern-musical genre.

Set in New York, Company follows five married, once married, or soon to be married couples and their mutual friend, Robert, a 35-year-old bachelor who has been unable to establish a long-term relationship. The couples are presented in a series of vignettes, primarily through Bobby’s eyes, so that we see the less than ideal aspects of commitment. However, can it be that the committed are happy? Bobby learns that relationships aren’t perfect, but are they a necessary part of *Being Alive*?

Featuring a brilliant, brisk, and energetic score containing many of Sondheim’s best-known songs, Company will have audience members seeing reflections of themselves in the relationships on stage.

Tickets at Brown Paper Tickets or at the door.

Dear Students,

We have exciting news to share that construction on our new residence hall may begin earlier than expected! To prepare for construction, some student parking spaces will need to be adjusted.

As of Tuesday, May 8, approximately 70 parking spaces near Building 2900 and in the lot next to the West Gate on Innis Arden Way will no longer be available to students. While there is still plenty of parking capacity on campus (including the Greenwood lot), we encourage you to consider parking in the Sears lot near 160th and Aurora, where the College has leased a large number of parking spaces. Free campus shuttles run between the Sears lot and the College each weekday between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.

We understand that this construction project may present an inconvenience to some students. In appreciation of your understanding, we will offer a full parking pass refund to all spring quarter students who park in the Sears lot for the remainder of the quarter. To receive a refund, please bring your spring quarter parking pass to the cashier on the second floor of Building 5000 (FOSS) by Friday, May 18.

We also ask that all students avoid parking on any residential streets near campus, as those parking spaces are designated for the residents of the neighborhoods. If you have any questions about parking or construction, please contact Edwin Lucero in Safety & Security (elucero@shoreline.edu, 206-546-4633) or me (strippel@shoreline.edu, 206-546-4672).

Thank you!

Sincerely,
Stuart A.T. Trippel, CPA

Greetings,

Shoreline Community College is proposing the repeal of the following chapters in Washington Administrative Code:
-C
hapter 132G-160 (Admissions & Registration Procedures)
-Chapter 132G-300-010 (Grievance Procedure, Title IX)

These rules are being proposed for elimination based on existing College policy already in place which reflects model language for both areas of these operational procedures. In addition, while College policy is required for these areas, they are not required to be codified under Washington Administrative Code per RCW 34.05.010(16). Interested parties can find the notices of proposed rulemaking online.

In compliance with RCW 34.05.320, the College is providing an opportunity for public comments as follows:

-Chapter 132G-160 (Admissions & Registration Procedures)
May 11, 2018 at 10am in the PUB Quiet Dining Room (9208)

-Chapter 132G-300-1010 (Grievance Procedure, Title IX)
May 11, 2018 at 2pm in the PUB Quiet Dining Room (9208)

Alternately, comments related to the proposed repeal of these rules may be submitted to sccrulemaking@shoreline.edu on or before May 11, 2018.

Thurs., May 3: 12:30-2:30pm
The Faculty Senate Council presents the lecture: When ‘Free Speech’ Is Actually Its Opposite. Shon Meckfessel, English professor at Highline College, will give a talk on the limits, perils, and contradictions of “free speech” discourse, especially in light of how alt-right groups have used First Amendment Rights against universities in order to call into question the values of inclusion, diversity, and anti-discrimination.

This event emerges from the need expressed by faculty, staff, administrators, and students to gain a more critical understanding of “free speech,” to learn more about the boundaries of what “free speech” means, and to take a critical stance against white supremacist actions within and across college campuses.
