***** PREVIOUS ANNOUNCEMENTS *****

MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES–BOARD EMAIL ACCOUNT
Please be advised that the Board of Trustees is discontinuing its campus email account.  This account was established two years ago during a crisis in leadership at the College.  The Board at that time felt it especially urgent that some means be provided to ensure that members of the campus community could communicate concerns directly to the Board, bypassing the usual administrative channels for such communications.  The email account was created for a specific purpose and was not intended to be permanent.  The account did in fact serve the important purpose for which it was created, and the Board appreciates having had the opportunity to hear the concerns of those who communicated with us during that difficult period.

Over the last year, however, now that relative calm has been restored to the institution, the email account has been rarely used by members of the campus community, perhaps once every two or three months.  A great deal of “spam” mail nonetheless accumulates on a daily basis, and one of us has had to monitor the account regularly to check for legitimate messages and clear out the unsolicited junk mail.  It is for this reason that we are now deactivating the account.

In so doing, the Board wishes the campus community to know that communications can still be addressed via regular or campus mail to the Board Chair and/or to the Secretary to the Board of Trustees, Lori Yonemitsu.  If marked “confidential,” such communications will be forwarded to the Board Chair without being opened by the Secretary.  The campus community should be aware, of course, that even confidential communications to the Board are subject to public disclosure under Washington’s Public Records Act. 

As always, the Board also welcomes your attendance at our regular meetings at which we routinely provide an opportunity for public comment and participation.

FIRST FRIDAY FILM
Friday, November 2 from 4:30 - 8 pm in Room 1522
This coming Friday the film, Jupiter's Wife (1995), will be shown and hosted by Brooke Zimmers, Speech Communication faculty.

Watch a real-life mystery unfold when NYU film professor, Michael Negroponte, meets Maggie Cogan, the self-professed wife of the god, Jupiter. Set in Maggie's home (Central Park), Negroponte decides to chronicle Maggie's life when he becomes intrigued with her life in the park with her dogs, as well as her story of how she came to be there. As he unravels the mystery, the film provides us with an intimate look at a life of someone who cannot let go of powerful delusions. The film provides a thought provoking view of homelessness and mental illness. The film maker has noted that it is really a film about "finding tolerance and empathy."

Please join us! $5 gets you delicious pizza, salad, beverage & dessert. RSVP to: dknauf@shoreline.edu  or 206-546-4656.
