GUY HAMILTON PROMOTES STATE FUNDING FOR
CLASSROOM EQUIPMENT FROM STATE
Biotechnology Program Chair Guy Hamilton was interviewed by Puget Sound
Business Journal staff writer, Clay Holtzman, in the November 30-December
6th edition. "Tech schools seek to upgrade outdated equipment" highlights
the unfortunate lack of funding for updated classroom equipment and its
impacts on our students, graduates and industry. Hamilton says that SCC
wants $43,000 to buy two more high-powered microscopes and a camera so
students could take pictures of tissue samples, which would allow them to
analyze their work later. Currently 16 students are sharing two
microscopes. SBCTC is preparing to ask for $8.5 million for flight
simulators, lab equipment, etc. for the colleges across the state.

WIRELESS NETWORK SOON TO REQUIRE
AUTHENTICATION
In September 2005, the FCC issued an order extending the Communications
Assistance for Law Enforcement Act ("CALEA") to providers of broadband
Internet access. The law stipulates that operators of public networks
provide the necessary infrastructure to facilitate wire-taps in support of
law enforcement activities. The Community and Technical Colleges of the
State of Washington have elected to establish an exemption from CALEA by
declaring our networks private. In order to maintain exempt status from
CALEA the college can allow Internet access only to students, faculty and
staff of the college and not to the general public. The campus wireless
network will require users to login beginning Jan 2, 2008.
The order from the FCC is vague and many of the provision have not yet been
tested in court. For the time being, members of the general public may
access the Internet from the reference computers in the library. Eventually
ID validation may be required here as well to maintain our CALEA exemption.
The campus wireless network is closed to the general public.
CHANGE OF ADDRESS FOR YEAR END TAX FORMS
Year-end W-2 tax forms will be mailed to employees' homes in January, 2008.

WIRELESS NETWORK SOON TO REQUIRE
AUTHENTICATION
In September 2005, the FCC issued an order extending the Communications
Assistance for Law Enforcement Act ("CALEA") to providers of broadband
Internet access. The law stipulates that operators of public networks
provide the necessary infrastructure to facilitate wire-taps in support of
law enforcement activities. The Community and Technical Colleges of the
State of Washington have elected to establish an exemption from CALEA by
declaring our networks private. In order to maintain exempt status from
CALEA the college can allow Internet access only to students, faculty and
staff of the college and not to the general public. The campus wireless
network will require users to login beginning Jan 2, 2008.
The order from the FCC is vague and many of the provision have not yet been
tested in court. For the time being, members of the general public may
access the Internet from the reference computers in the library. Eventually
ID validation may be required here as well to maintain our CALEA exemption.
The campus wireless network is closed to the general public.

WORLD AIDS DAY
Monday, December 3
World AIDS Day was December 1. It has been reported that approximately 33.2
million people globally are living with HIV today (www.cdc.gov/hiv/topic ,
www.istandwithmagic.com, www.imcworldwide). In the US, over 1 million people
are living with HIV. During the week of December 3, we have an opportunity
to assist students with passing out Red Ribbons in support of this day. If
you would like to hand out ribbons please stop by the A & C Office on Monday
at 8:30 and they will be available for your pick up. This is a small
contribution to this world issue, but every little bit helps in the fight
against HIV/AIDS. Other ways to support the HIV/AIDS fight: Encourage
individuals to get tested, volunteer, learn more about HIV/AIDS, provide
HIV/AIDS awareness literature, make donations, sponsor fundraisers, and
speak out, speak out, speak out about HIV/AIDS.
