SCC OUTLINES PERSONNEL IMPACTS FROM BUDGET CUTS
While no one would characterize the personnel impacts of state-mandated budget reductions at Shoreline Community College as anything but painful with more than 20 positions eliminated, making those cuts ultimately involved only two actual layoffs.

“We worked very hard to find options for people,” said SCC President Lee Lambert, adding that contract-based bumping and position reversion rights, combined with employees’ choices, made for a sometimes-convoluted process. “Sometimes that process took more time, but we wanted to make sure everyone had every chance. I want to thank (Vice President for Human Resources and Legal Affairs) Stephen Smith taking the lead on working through these difficult times.”

Lambert acknowledged that even with those efforts, the college and many good people were affected.  “OK, two layoffs, but we still lost good, valuable people through retirements, tenure buyouts and people deciding to leave,” he said. “Those people represent a lot of experience and knowledge.”  Read more at On Campus blog.

BEWARE OF HOT, DRY WEATHER

IMG_1323 by Shoreline Community College.Please be aware of the dangers of dry weather and high temperatures, such as bushfires, which actually took place on campus yesterday between the Parent-Child Center and the Automotive Center.  Although it may seem harmless, a very small bush fire can quickly turn into a real problem if a wind presents itself and distributes the embers to other dangerously dry locations.  Dry leaves and branches can also escalate the fire as can the slope of the land. Be sure to extinguish all combustibles in approved containers.  Again, please take extra care during these dry, hot spells. Thank you.

FLAG AT HALF-STAFF IN MEMORY OF U.S. ARMY FIRST LT. BRIAN BRADSHAW
Governor Chris Gregoire has directed that flags at all Washington State agency facilities be lowered to half-staff Wednesday, July 1, 2009, in memory of U. S. Army First Lieutenant Brian N. Bradshaw, 24, of Steilacoom, who died on June 25, in Kheyl, Afghanistan, from injuries sustained from the detonation of an improvised explosive device. The flag will remain at half-staff until close of business today or first thing Thursday morning.

CONSERVING ENERGY FRIENDLY REMINDER
What can we do about conserving energy? It is within the control of each of us to do many small things that can add up to potential energy savings for the college. Offices, classrooms, rest rooms, hallways, and other lights are often left on when they are not needed. Electronic devices could be turned off at night, including computers and printers. If we work together, we can make real progress towards conserving energy. Thank you for any help you can provide as you go about your work each day.

1800 ELECTRICAL SERVICE UPGRADE
Please be advised that digging will be required between the 2200 and the 1800 buildings in order to upgrade the electrical service to the 1800 Building. Expect the affected pathways/walkways to be closed while this work is being performed. Work will start Thursday, July 2 and should be completed on or before Friday, July 10.

SCC RECOGNIZED AT TULANE UNIVERSITY COMMENCEMENT
Shoreline Community College is one of six colleges and universities in Washington state to be recognized in the 2009 commencement program at Tulane University.  Shoreline was one of some 600 higher education institutions acknowledged for supporting Tulane students when the prestigious university was forced to close its doors for a semester due to flooding caused by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.  President Lambert received a letter from Tulane President, Scott S. Cowen, informing him of Shoreline's tribute. President Cowen said, "I will always be grateful to the higher education community for what you did for our students and for Tulane.  We will never forget your kindness and generosity.  Thank you."  The Shoreline Community College Board of Trustees adopted Resolution No. 91 on October 26, 2005.  Establishing an Operating Fee Waiver for Citizens Displaced as a Result of Hurricane Katrina.  Read more.   

JAY INSLEE WEARS SCC BASEBALL UNIFORM AT ANNUAL CONGRESSIONAL BASEBALL GAME
U.S. Congressmen leave their suits and ties in their closets one day each year and choose, instead, to wear baseball jerseys and head for Nationals Stadium to play ball. This year marked the 48th year of the Roll Call Congressional Baseball Game, and Rep. Jay Inslee, who in the past has worn uniforms from district high schools, decided to wear the Shoreline Community College baseball uniform this year.  One might say that the jersey brought the blue team good luck, as they took home the trophy, the first time since 2000, with a 15 to 10 win.
