Dear Student,
The Fourth of July holiday is upon us and for many of us it means celebrating this special day with family and friends. This Tuesday, let’s also take time to celebrate the original vision of the United States as a nation that upholds our unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. I am grateful these ideals of equality and independence are such an indelible part of this country’s past and hoped-for future.
I wish you all a happy and safe Fourth of July.
Warmly,
Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
President

Tutoring Services is hiring!
Please consider a job supporting others while sharing your knowledge and apply to become a tutor!
To qualify for an interview, you should:
- have at least a 3.5 or an instructor recommendation (forms available) in the courses to be tutored and a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or above.
- have a strong desire to help others learn with professionalism and patience!
- carefully fill out our application, including brief but thoughtful responses to the two questions at the end.
We do our best to provide tutors to students in ANY course offered at Shoreline Community College, from accounting to visual communications technology, so we are interested in tutors across the curriculum. Most recently, we have struggled to meet the student demand in areas such as business technology, geography, nursing, statistics, and a wide variety of 200-level STEM courses. Following graduation, we will also be looking for new tutors in a wide sweep of courses, from accounting to physics, Japanese to nutrition, computer science to communication studies, and much more.
Tutoring Services welcomes and encourages both domestic and international student applicants as well as qualified non-students, and we strive to employ tutors who represent the diversity of SCC’s student population. There is a hiring process for all applicants, which can take time as it moves from the initial application, to an interview, to paperwork, to HR processing and activation. Qualified domestic students who are interviewed and offered a position might start three or more weeks from their date of application. Given the month+ timeline for acquiring a social security card through completing new hire paperwork, qualified international students often have a longer wait to start actively tutoring. Because of the time this hiring process takes, we are particularly interested in those who will be able to tutor more than one quarter, but we consider all qualified applicants.
Thank you for considering joining the Tutoring Services team!

Join Shoreline Community College for Seattle’s PRIDE Parade this Sun., Jun 25. This year the College will have a float in the parade and all students, faculty, staff, and friends are welcome to join in and march alongside the College float.
Participants who wish to walk with Shoreline are asked to arrive at 12:45 p.m.at the Republic parking lot on 6th and James. Although the parade begins at 11 a.m. the organizers suggest this gathering time for our group as we’re towards the back of the very long parade.
The parade runs along 4th Avenue in downtown Seattle, beginning at Union Street and running north to Denny Way. View the parade route.
Shoreline’s Project Pride Club is sponsoring the College entry in the Pride Parade, which is an annual event attended by thousands of spectators. This will be a fun event with great exposure for the College. Participants will be handing out Shoreline Community College beads to the crowds.
If you’d like to attend, please fill out the online sign-up form. If you have any questions, please contact Amy Stapleton at astaplet@shoreline.edu.
