DEC students win big at international competition
Fifteen Shoreline Community College business students joined college students from around the country, Canada and Puerto Rico to compete in the 2004 Delta Epsilon Chi (DEC) Students International Career Development Conference in Nashville, Tennessee April 14-19.  DEC is an international organization for both high school and college students who are preparing for careers in business.  An annual conference is held to promote networking as well as provide an opportunity for the students to compete and build skills.

The Shoreline business students competed at the state level last February, where they qualified for the international competition.  The state judges provided suggestions on how to improve their performance for the international competition.  “The students worked really hard to get to the international level,” says Laura Portolese Dias, co-advisor for the College’s DEC Club. David Starr has been the advisor for years.

Students have the choice to make presentations or complete case studies (business simulations) at the international competition level.  The case studies are the most challenging as the students are given a difficult business situation and only a half an hour preparation time before doing mock business interactions in front of a panel of judges.  Portolese Dias was proud of the Shoreline team because they all chose to take on the case studies.  The judges rated their performance in a variety of areas such as how well they handle the situation, including their professionalism and their sensitivity.  SCC students did very well, competing in a number of marketing, sales and entrepreneurship case studies that represented nearly 20 career areas.  

Seven Shoreline students made it to the National Qualifier level, qualifying them to compete to be in the Top 10:  Carla Magee, Amaryah Curnutt, Luke Dier, Nicholas Dorsey, Adam Hierlihy, Garett Fitzpatrick, Paul Won and Alisher Bazarov.  Magee, Curnutt, Dorsey and Fitzpatrick went all the way to be named National Finalists in the Top 10. 

SCC students who competed in this year’s competition include Carla Magee (Marketing Management); Jessica Swails (Sales Representative); Maria Norley (Hospitality); Jaquelene Newsom (Restaurant and Food Service Management; Amaryah Curnutt,Travel and Tourism; Cassandra Main (Apparel and Accessories Marketing); Luke Dier (Marketing Management); Todd Carter (Sales Manager Meeting); Andrew Kolve (Retail Merchandising and Management); Nicholas Dorsey (Management Decision Making); Adam Hierlihy (Management Decision Making); Jeremy Monsivias (National Management Institute; Garett Fitzpatrick (Sales Manager Meeting); Paul Won (Business to Business Marketing team); and Alisher Bazarov (Business to Business Marketing Team).

Congratulations to all our bright students – our future entrepreneurs and marketing and management leaders!

The Friends of Sironka Maasai Dance Troupe joined SCC Multicultural Week celebrations April 19 - 23.  Traveling and performing around the United States this Spring, the Maasai guests strive to increase international understanding and awareness of Maasai life, language and culture.  This marks the third year representatives from the Friends of Sironka have supported SCC diversity initiatives.  Based in Kenya, the 10-person tribe participated in a number of campus events and activities, including classroom visits to Multicultural Education, Anthropology and Cosmetology.  Additionally, the Maasai visited the Shoreline Rotary Club and joined the college at its annual Bowling for Brains scholarship event.  The college community embraced their visit and assisted in fundraising efforts to improve Maasai access to education and community resources.  Their visit was co-sponsored by International Programs and Student Programs' Programming Council.

SCC-affiliated co-op celebrates 30^th anniversary
It’s a little known fact here on campus that SCC has a well-established Parent Education/Cooperative Preschool Program at eight sites around Shoreline and Seattle.  This program offers parenting classes to nearly 500 families with young children each quarter.  One of these programs, the Crystal Springs Cooperative Preschool will celebrate its 30^th Anniversary with a special event on Sunday, May 23 from 1-5pm.  For this event, the co-op will host a special guest, Senator Patty Murray, in addition to current families and alumni.  Many years ago, both Senator Murray and President Moore served as parent educators at Crystal Springs and helped form the program into what it is today.

Despite their change from SCC parent educators to U.S. Senator and College President, both Senator Murray and President Moore continue to be strong advocates for children and families and the statewide parent education program.  The current families enrolled at Crystal Springs are proud to be part of an SCC-affiliated co-op with such a rich history and that continues to serve families with young children so effectively today. Congratulations, Crystal Springs.  Here’s to another 30 years!

SCC's "Heroes of Early Childhood Education"

King County East Association for the Education of Young Children (KC-E AEYC) recently recognized the long-time contributions to children and families made by SCC Parent Education Program faculty members, Patty Druxman and Christy Generous by naming them “Heroes of Early Childhood Education.”  As SCC parent educators, Druxman at the Inglemoor Cooperative Preschool and Generous at the Crystal Springs Cooperative Preschool, have helped hundreds of adults become knowledgeable, effective and supportive parents for their young children.  With skill, sensitivity, and respect these instructors have worked with both children and parents to create programs that promote the most appropriate early childhood experiences and expectations for children.  Faculty, alumni and honorees are in the photo above.

Judy Derpack, another SCC Parent Ed instructor, nominated Druxman and Generous for the award.  Several other SCC Parent Education faculty as well as two alumni parents from the program attended the ceremony that honored these two valued instructors and colleagues.

Mark Menghi Awarded First AMA Certificate
Mark Menghi is the first SCC student to earn the American Management Association (AMA) Certificate through courses offered at SCC@LFP.  This nationally-recognized program was designed and developed by business and educational experts to provide consistent, quality instruction in management courses.  The program offers timely training in essential management skills such as Leadership, Supervision and Organizational Goals. 

In the photo to the left, Robin Ballard, assistant drector of SCC@LFP and Marguerite Langlois, instructor, present an AMA Certificate to Mark Menghi on April 23 at Lake Forest Park.

Menghi currently works with information systems at the King County Department of Transportation.  Working in the field of technology for the past 15 years, Menghi knew he could increase the dimension of his present knowledge by adding some management, supervision and communication skills.  “In today’s working environment being a good techie isn’t enough; you also need people skills,” he comments. 

Though Menghi says he has no plans to seek a new career in management, he can apply some of his new expertise in his current position.  “I can use some of these skills immediately in the project management portion of my present job.”  He especially enjoyed the small class size and the instructor, Marguerite Langlois.  “Marguerite is an exceptional teacher and brings a lot of experience to the classroom.  Her classes are very thought provoking.” 

For information on the AMA Certificate program call 206-533-6700.

Third annual Campus Beautification Day
Perhaps we could have asked for nicer weather but Campus Beautification Day couldn't have been better.  Employees worked tirelessly all morning to plant the bedding plants in front of the library, the 1200 building and the Parent-Child Center.  More than 40 flats of flowers were planted. The coveted "Golden Shovel" was awarded to Dr. Andrea Rye for her efforts at the Parent Child Center. "She spent three hours in the pouring rain to plant those flowers," says Nancy Lamus, event chair. "She was covered with mud from head to toe."  Best team name, "The Pot Heads," went to the bookstore crew: Michele Arevalo, Mark Totten, Dawn Azure and Latrail Chatters.  Their work hats held flower pots.  For the third year in a row, Lanay Gard came away with the "Best Hat" award. Thanks to Jim Hammond for his expertise in flowers and gardening and to all who participated. Even though the weather was bad, the SCC staff came through again!

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Think Bookstore!
Are you spending more than you need to for that book,
software, software license  or office supply?
A reminder to everyone to check with the Bookstore for competitive pricing on non-text books, software and software licensing and of course office and general supplies. The Bookstore maintains “Reseller” status with all of the major software manufacturers and in most cases can match or beat the price of outside vendors.  In addition the Bookstore is willing to match the book prices of Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble whenever possible.

The bookstore is a self-supported operation that, though state owned, receives no support from student fees, tax revenues or funding from the college. The Bookstore continues to support the college through a supplement to the general fund.  Each year the bookstore “profits” are placed in the General Fund to support the entire college community.  As the revenue and bottom line of bookstore operations grow, so does the amount of funds available to the General Fund. Purchasing through the bookstore benefits the entire campus, saves time and energy and can stretch limited budget dollars. 

Contact Mark Totten (4790 or mtotten@shoreline.edu ) for all book questions, Dawn Azure (4751 or dazure@shoreline.edu) for all supply items and Mary Kelemen (4733 or mkelemen@shoreline.edu) for software and licensing.

Testing Center at LFP offers COMPASS test

Commute Trip Reduction
The more you leave the car at home, the more you save.  Leaving the car at home one or more times a week can save you money on wear and tear, insurance and gas which means more of it stays where it belongs…..in your wallet.

Fact:  Traffic deaths, automobile-related injuries and property damage in Washington State costs us over $1.1 billion per year.  That is more than we spend on all roads from our gas tax.
