Understanding Test Anxiety
Wed., Oct. 5, PUB 9208
12:30-1:30 p.m.

Does the following sound like you or a student you know?

You’ve participated in class, done all of your homework, studied hard, and you think you have a grip on the material. But then the day of the test comes. Suddenly, you blank out, freeze up, zone out, or feel so nervous that you can’t get it together to respond to those questions you knew the answers to just last night.

If this sounds like you or a student you know, it may have a case of test anxiety — that nervous feeling that people sometimes get when they’re about to take a test.

It’s pretty normal to feel a little nervous and stressed before a test. Just about everyone does. And a touch of nervous anticipation can actually help you keep you at peak performance while you’re taking the test. But for some people, this normal anxiety is more intense. The nervousness they feel before a test can be so strong that it interferes with their concentration or performance.

Learn more about test anxiety and walk away with a few tips to help reduce anxiety and do your best on that next test or exam!

Workshop is open to all and no RSVP needed. Feel free to bring your lunch!

Urinetown: The Musical opens this Fri., Oct. 7 and runs through Oct. 16. Get your tickets today!
urinetownPresented by Shoreline Community College and the Musical and Opera Program, this production is made possibly by the generous support of the Student Leadership Center.

Winner of three Tony Awards, three Outer Critic’s Circle Awards, two Lucille Lortel Awards, and two Obie Awards, Urinetown is a hilarious musical satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, populism, bureaucracy, corporate mismanagement, municipal politics and musical theatre itself! Hilariously funny and touchingly honest, Urinetown provides a fresh perspective of one of America’s greatest art forms.

In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he’s had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!

Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could be, Urinetown catapults the “comedic romp” into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter.

October 7, 8, 8, 9, 14, 15, 16

GAC: The Iranian Nuclear Deal – Preventing a Weapons Program?, PUB 9208
Thurs., Oct. 6: 7-8:30 p.m.
iranian-dealCome to a talk featuring Dr. Halvor A Undem, University of Washington, Jackson School of International Studies, and former Advisor to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

In 2015, a landmark nuclear deal was reached between Iran and the P5+1 group of world powers (the United States, Great Britain, France, China and Russia plus Germany).  Crippling economic sanctions on Iran would be lifted once the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) certified that Iran had restricted its sensitive nuclear activities.  The White House says the deal will prevent Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon. Iran says it has the right to nuclear energy – and stresses that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only.

Additional support provided by the Center for Global Studies, Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies, UW. For more information about Dr. Halvor A Undem, visit our biographies page.

September 30th, 2016 by pio@shoreline.edu

The issue of campus safety is a vital concern for students, their families, faculty, and staff. In compliance with the federal law for crime statistics known as “The Student Right to Know and Campus Security Act of 1990” (more commonly called the “Clery Act”), the College has posted the 2015 Annual Security Report Handbook online.

The law, originally enacted by Congress in 1990 as the Campus Security Act, was initiated by Howard and Connie Clery after their daughter Jeanne was killed at Lehigh University in 1986. Amendments to the Act in 1998 renamed it in memory of Jeanne Clery. The Clery Act requires colleges and universities to publish an annual security report every year by October 1st that contains three years of crime statistics and certain policy statements, including sexual assault policies, which ensure basic victims’ rights and point to resources available including where students, staff, faculty, and visitors should go to report crimes.

The Department of Education requires the reporting of criminal offenses occurring on:

  1. Main Campus
  2. Adjacent public property to the College’s perimeter property (such as Shoreview Park).
  3. Non-campus property that we have a relationship to (such as the Sears Parking Lot), and
  4. Residence facilities, if applicable.

In addition to crime statistics and reporting information, the second section of the Annual Report provides information on Title IX, The Violence Against Women’s Reauthorization Act of 1994 (VAWA), and The Campus Sexual Violence Elimination Act (SaVE). VAWA and SaVE enhanced The Clery Act and were created in response to increasing reports of violence against college-aged female students. Their legislation represented a turning point in our nation’s handling of sexual misconduct and offender accountability. Under Title IX’s sexual discrimination prohibition, the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights has underscored that all students, regardless of gender or gender identity, are to be treated equitably in complaints involving sexual violence.

Crime statistics (always for the previous year) are made available to the public on or before October 1st each year.

While not federally required by the above acts, Shoreline Community College’s crime and injury occurrences are also provided in the Report. If you have any questions or comments about the Report’s content, please contact Safety & Security Director Robin Blacksmith at 206-546-4633.
