Shoreline Community College will be closed in honor of Veterans Day on Friday, November 11. We would particularly like to acknowledge and offer our sincere appreciation for the service and sacrifice of our Shoreline Community College veterans’ community. A Veterans Day banner is posted on the door of the Veterans Resource Center (VRC – FOSS 5225A). All are invited to stop by, add your words of thanks, and attach a picture of your favorite veteran!
*3 Facts About Veterans Day You May Not Know
- Veterans Day does NOT have an apostrophe! The holiday is not a day that “belongs” to one veteran or multiple veterans, which is what an apostrophe implies. It’s a day for honoring all veterans – so no apostrophe needed.
- Veterans Day is NOT the same as Memorial Day. Memorial Day is a time to remember those who gave their lives for our country. Veterans Day honors all of those who served our country in war or peace – deceased or living – although it’s largely intended to honor living veterans for their sacrifices.
- Veterans Day was originally called Armistice Day, commemorating the end of World War 1. World War I officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919. However, the fighting ended about seven months before that when the Allies and Germany put into effect an armistice on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.
Veteran & Military Student Services (VMSS) will be hosting a Veterans Day Appreciation Lunch in the Veterans Resource Center (VRC – FOSS 5225A) on Wednesday, November 9 and Thursday, November 10 for our veterans and military-connected students.

Shoreline Community College cerrará el viernes 11 de noviembre para celebrar el Día de los veteranos. Queremos expresar nuestro más sincero reconocimiento y agradecimiento por el servicio y el sacrificio de nuestra comunidad de veteranos en Shoreline Community College. Hay una pancarta del Día de los veteranos publicada en la puerta del Centro de recursos para veteranos (VRC, en inglés) (Salón FOSS 5225A). Les invitamos para que se acerquen a dejar unas palabras de agradecimiento y colocar una foto de su veterano favorito.
*3 Curiosidades sobre el Día de los veteranos que quizás no sabías
- En inglés, ¡el nombre Día de los veteranos (Veterans Day) no lleva apóstrofe! La festividad no es un día que “pertenezca” a uno o varios veteranos, que es lo que implica el uso del apóstrofe. Es un día para rendir homenaje a todos los veteranos, por lo tanto, no necesita dicho recurso gramatical.
- El Día de los veteranos NO es lo mismo que el Día de los caídos (Memorial Day). Este último es un día para recordar a aquellos que dieron su vida por nuestro país. El Día de los veteranos rinde homenaje a todos los que sirvieron a nuestro país en momentos de guerra o de paz (que hayan fallecido o que estén con vida), aunque, principalmente, busca homenajear a los veteranos vivos por sus sacrificios.
- El Día de los veteranos fue llamado, originalmente, Día del armisticio, ya que conmemoraba el fin de la Primera Guerra Mundial, que finalizó de manera oficial con la firma del Tratado de Versalles el 28 de junio de 1919. Sin embargo, los combates terminaron siete meses antes de esa fecha, cuando los Aliados y Alemania acordaron un armisticio a las 11 horas del día 11 del mes 11.
El Departamento de Servicios estudiantiles para militares y veteranos (VMSS, en inglés) realizará un almuerzo de agradecimiento en el Centro de recursos para veteranos (VRC – FOSS 5225A) los días miércoles 9 y jueves 10 de noviembre para nuestros estudiantes veteranos o vinculados con el servicio militar.

Dear Campus Community,
This message is in follow-up to the earlier RAVE and email alert shared regarding an early morning incident on campus.
At approximately 6:11 a.m. today, a student resident was involved in an altercation with Campus Security and the King County Sheriff’s Office. The incident spilled out of Bldg. 7000 and continued near the King County Metro bus stops on campus resulting in damage to 2 Campus Security vehicles and minor injuries to both Campus Security and Sheriff’s Deputies. The student resident has been arrested and transported to a medical facility for medical evaluation.
As shared in the initial update, there is no ongoing threat to campus and the incident is resolved. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Campus Security Officer David Banik and Campus Security Officer Karl Hicks for their prompt response and action to this incident, which ensured a quick resolution in the protection of campus.
This incident highlights the escalating need on campus for additional security resources as the number of incidents grows in response to changing regional dynamics. The college will continue to analyze and make improvements where possible to ensure continued safety and security for the college community.
The College has begun a multi-faceted investigation into this incident and will continue to engage in active discussions with regard to additional support or resources in response. The College will keep the campus informed as new recommendations are identified.
