Pack the stands and ROAR for our 1st place Women’s Volleyball team this Wed., Nov. 4 at 7 p.m. as they take on Skagit Valley Community College at home. #GoPhins!
The first Wednesday of each month is Spirit Day, a chance to show our Phin Pride across campus. This upcoming Spirit Day (Nov. 4) is also our top-ranked Women’s Volleyball team’s HOME game against Skagit Valley Community College. So we’re celebrating in style!
This Spirit Day (Nov. 4), please join us in celebrating Shoreline by wearing Phin Gear on campus. Don’t have any? Shoreline students get a 20% discount on Phin gear and apparel at the bookstore on Spirit Days! So go grab some gear and show off your school pride.
To get the party started, the SLC will have a table in front of the gym (3000 bldg) from 12:30-1:30 p.m. and will be handing out treats, playing music, dancing and having a great time – swing by and join them and help spread the PhinNation Spirit!
Athletic Director Steve Eskridge will host a short program honoring this year’s sophomores as well as recognizing past alumni in attendance. After the ceremony, let the games begin!
Ready for even more fun?! Between the second and third match, spectators will be invited to come on down to the court and ROAR for your Phins! What does that mean? A dance party at center court, of course! #PhinStyle
We hope to see you there, being Phins Up and All In!
This Wed., Nov. 4 Seattle’s Raging Grannies are holding a film screening and performance on Shoreline’s campus to promote global peace, justice, and social and economic equality by raising public awareness through the medium of song and humor. Hosted by the Student Leadership Center, the event takes place in the PUB Quiet Dining Room from 12:30-3 p.m. (film showing 12:30-2 p.m., Grannies performance 2-3 p.m.)
What Are the Raging Grannies Raging About? They are enraged about the poor conditions that people are forced to endure in their lives, and about the condition of the earth that will be left to our precious grandchildren. They sing out to gain respect for all persons and encourage everyone to grow above their prejudices. They rage against “corporate greed” and sign for “one world” in which JUSTICE is evident everywhere and PEACE reigns.
Join the Global Affairs Center this Wed., Nov. 4 in the PUB Quiet Dining Room from 11:30 a.m. – 12:20 p.m. for a talk on Women and Social Protest.
• What role do women play in politics?
• What prompts women to organize on behalf of unpopular causes?
• How are women themselves changed by personal experiences of political activism?
Using both historical and contemporary examples from the U.S. and other countries, Shoreline Community College’s own Professor Rachel David will discuss answers to these and other questions. For more information about Ms. David, visit our biographies page here.
A message from Shoreline’s president Dr. Cheryl Roberts.
Dear Students,
The new strategic plan for Shoreline Community College is nearing its final draft for presentation to our Board of Trustees in early 2016. In forming the plan, we have witnessed unprecedented participation from hundreds of members of our campus community. There have been thoughtful and rewarding conversations with both employees and students as well as with members of our broader local and business communities. Thank you for all the work you have done thus far to shape our future!
The Strategic Plan Task Force and the Executive Leadership Team will work through the remainder of the year to refine the goals and objectives of the plan. At the same time, we want to have a discussion about our current vision and mission statements. This will allow us to inform the Board of Trustees, which sets the vision and mission of the College, that our campus community has spent time reviewing the statements for any proposed modifications. The purpose is not to propose a new vision or mission, but to ask whether anything in the current vision and mission is out of alignment with the strategic goals as they have been revised following the group discussions during Opening Week.
Laura Rehrmann, Special Assistant to the President, will facilitate two meetings to discuss the vision and mission statements. In reviewing the vision and mission, you will see the draft strategic goals as they now stand. I hope that you will be able to attend one of these sessions:
Thursday, November 12, 3:00–4:30 p.m., Room 1402
Tuesday, November 17, 8:30–10:00 a.m., Room 9201
There will also be an opportunity to contribute online for those who cannot attend in person.
In early winter quarter, we will share the new strategic plan with the campus community one last time, prior to presentation to the Board of Trustees. Then the work begins to join together in implementing our preferred future over the next five years.
Thank you again for your valuable participation as our strategic plan is developed. We are nearing the finish line!
