OUTLOOK OUT OF OFFICE REPLIES TO THE INTERNET HAVE BEEN TURNED ON
Many months ago, Out-of-Office Assistant (OOA) replies to the Internet were turned off due to spam backscatter that resulted in our email system being blacklisted by anti-spam databases. The backscatter was primarily caused by OOA replies to spam messages flagged by our anti-spam software. Our new anti-spam software, Postini, filters out spam messages before they reach your inbox, so this is no longer an issue. The last of the mailboxes were converted from the old system to the new system, and the old software was removed on Tuesday. OOA replies to the Internet are now on. Additionally, our email system will soon be upgraded allowing for more flexibility with OOA messages. As an example, you will be able to specify different messages for on-campus and off-campus senders.

NOTICE ON BUILDING CLOSURES FOR NEW TRANSFORMER PROJECT
The transformer that has provided power to the 1400, 1500, 1600 and 1700 buildings for years has given its last hoo-rah.  Although it provided reliable electrical service for years, it can no longer meet the power needs of all the classrooms and offices in those buildings, so a new one will be installed.  Installation will require that these buildings be without power from Aug.20 – Sept. 11. 

“This was the best time we could find to hook up the new transformer,” said Facilities Director Bob Roehl, referring to the timing of the project taking place between quarters in order to affect as few people as possible.  Roehl also said that the new transformer will meet all code requirements and will be easier to access since it won’t be underground in a vault like the former one was.  No Power signs have also been posted at several locations around the buildings.  Read more at On Campus blog.

CHANGES ON JULY 24TH PAYCHECK FOR PERS 2 MEMBERS
Beginning with the July 24th paycheck, employee retirement contributions for PERS 2 will decrease, increasing the amount of paychecks for PERS 2 members slightly. The contribution rate that is deducted will decrease from 5.45% to 3.89% of gross pay for PERS 2 employees.

Costs that the College contributes for PERS 2 employees’ retirement will also decrease from 8.31% to 5.29% of gross pay. However, the monthly employer contribution for all employees for health care is increasing dramatically from $561.00 per month per employee to $745.00. This will not affect your paycheck, but will increase costs to the College.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL AID TO HELP STUDENTS
College enrollments for summer and fall quarters are shooting through the roof and so have the numbers of those seeking help with school costs. Financial aid requests at Shoreline Community College are up by 50 percent and in response, college officials are making changes to get money to students more quickly.

To help meet the demand, the SCC Financial Aid Office will dedicate Tuesdays and Thursdays to reviewing student files and awarding and packaging financial aid. Starting July 6 and through mid-August, students seeking financial aid will be directed to Enrollment Services on those days.  The new process will help reduce the typical 8-10 week wait time for financial aid approval.

Students are always encouraged to apply for financial aid as early as possible, but current circumstances make that advice all the more critical.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL AID TO HELP STUDENTS
College enrollments for summer and fall quarters are shooting through the roof and so have the numbers of those seeking help with school costs. Financial aid requests at Shoreline Community College are up by 50 percent and in response, college officials are making changes to get money to students more quickly.

To help meet the demand, the SCC Financial Aid Office will dedicate Tuesdays and Thursdays to reviewing student files and awarding and packaging financial aid. Starting July 6 and through mid-August, students seeking financial aid will be directed to Enrollment Services on those days.  The new process will help reduce the typical 8-10 week wait time for financial aid approval.

Students are always encouraged to apply for financial aid as early as possible, but current circumstances make that advice all the more critical.

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.”

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.

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.

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.
