It is the mission of the
Department of Safety and
Security to provide campus
security services which enhance
and support the Strategic Plan
of Shoreline Community College.
(Our goal is to promote a safe
and welcoming environment that
recognizes, and is respectful of
diversity, and to improve the
quality of campus life for
students, and faculty and staff,
learning and working at
Shoreline Community College by
working in partnership with the
campus community to provide the
most professional, effective
campus safety services
possible.) All of this must be
done in a learning environment
and a physical climate that
support excellence.
Shoreline Community College
is a community unto itself. All
members of the community "€œ
students, faculty and staff "€œ
contribute to making Shoreline a
safe, nurturing environment for
learning. As much as we might
like, we cannot isolate
ourselves from the world that
surrounds our campus. The
Shoreline neighborhood that
surrounds our campus is one of
the safest in the City of
Shoreline. Yet, like any place
in our modern times, there are
dangers. For this reason the
Department of Campus Safety and
Security is committed to
ensuring the safety of students,
employees, and visitors through
effective policies and
procedures, educational
programming, and community
involvement.
