SRJC Theatre Arts Presents The Little MermaidSRJC Theatre Arts Department presents The Little Mermaid, opening the weekend before Thanksgiving and running through Dec 3. Based on the classic animated film inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s cherished story, Disney’s The Little Mermaid is a hauntingly beautiful love story for the ages. When Ariel, a daring young mermaid, falls head over tail for Prince Eric in the human world above, she bargains with the evil sea witch, Ursula, to trade her lovely voice for legs. But when things go terribly wrong, Ariel needs the help of her friends to save her. This Academy-Award winning fishy fable will capture your heart with its irresistible songs, including “Under the Sea,” “Kiss the Girl” and “Part of Your World.” The show is recommended for ages 6 and above.

Ellie Condello, who plays Ariel, says, “I wanted to be in this show because I’ve always loved Ariel, ever since I was three years old and first saw the movie. She has always been my favorite. I have pictures of multiple Halloweens in a row where I’m dressed as Ariel. I connect with her because she is a dreamer. She dreams of the world above and goes after it. She is a very strong female character who doesn’t give up even when those around her look down on what she loves.”

Sandy Brown, who plays Ursula, says, “I am fascinated with the femme fatale. Villains are always the most interesting characters so when I was told about this production, I became obsessed with everything Ursula. I intend to pursue a career in Theatre/Acting. This role will allow me to better develop my voice and stage confidence.”

Anthony Martensen, who plays Flounder, attended Maria Carrillo, El Molina and Analy High Schools. He says, “I think every experience working on a play can be a beneficial experience...it demands that you are engaged and you can form meaningful relationships.”

Armand Beikzadeh plays Prince Erik and says, “I grew up watching Disney and have always wanted to play a prince!”

Stacy Rutz plays a Mersister/Princess and says, “I was obsessed with the film when I was eight years old and sang ‘Part of Your World’ everywhere believing I was Ariel. Now I get to be the next best thing, one of her sisters!”

Jordan Diomande, who plays Sebastian, grew up in Cote d’Ivoire, West Africa. He can identify with the story because he says it is about “a person trying to achieve her goals in spite of everyone and everything in between.”

Sidney McNulty, who plays Scuttle and attended Rancho Cotati High School, says, “I was obsessed with this movie as a child. I really connected with the longing to find a place to fit in. And also I have always felt like a tap dancing seagull on the inside.”

A Benefit Concert for Musicians

The North Bay Sinfonietta, a chamber orchestra under the auspices of the SANTA ROSA JUNIOR COLLEGE, WILL PRESENT A BENEFIT CONCERT UNDER THE DIRECTION OF ITS FOUNDER/CONDUCTOR CYNTHIA WEICHEL, ON FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1, 2017 – 8:00 PM AT THE CHURCH OF THE INCARNATION, 550 MENDOCINO AVE.

General tickets are $15 and may be purchased at the door. This benefit concert is for local musicians who were impacted by the recent fires, which includes the loss of their instruments. Orchestra members Sebastian Shader (violin) and Peter Altamura (horn) are just two examples of local musicians devastated by the fires.

The concert features Jennifer Sills, playing Telemann’s Viola Concerto in G (1715). This is the very first concerto written for viola.

Violist Jennifer Sills has appeared as a soloist in concerts on both coasts including performances with the Ventura Symphony, The North Jersey Symphony, and the College of Marin Orchestra. She has performed extensively as a chamber musician with the Marin Arts Quartet, The Mozart Festival, The Oregon Bach Festival and Russian River Chamber Music. Jennifer currently plays with the Marin Symphony and performs frequently with the Santa Rosa Symphony. A native of Berkeley, she lives in Santa Rosa where she teaches kindergarten at the Santa Rosa Charter School for the Arts.

The concert also includes the following works on the program:

Coriolan Overture by Beethoven 1785

Symphony No. 2 by Louis Spohr, 1820

Sinfonia No. 7 by Niccolo Zingarelli, 1785

The North Bay Sinfonietta is comprised of 30 amateur musicians from Sonoma County. The orchestra’s mission is to look for fresh exciting ways to present classical music with quality intimate performances and innovative programming. In addition to performing classic pieces from the chamber orchestra repertoire, the orchestra is committed to presenting lesser-known works and unique soloists that will delight their audiences.

Conductor, Cynthia Weichel, is on the faculty of the SRJC, where she teaches Classical Music Appreciation, Music History and Music Fundamentals. She is also the Founder/Conductor of the popular Symphonic Reading Orchestra she formed in the summer of 2008. Weichel is a native of Santa Rosa and an alumna of the SRJC. She received her Bachelor’s degree in music from Sonoma State University and a Master’s degree in conducting from CSU, Sacramento. Most recently she was conductor of the SRJC Orchestra for 13 years, and was also the Assistant Conductor of the Santa Rosa Symphony Youth Orchestra for 13 years. As a professional violinist, she has been a longtime member of the Napa Valley Symphony. At home in Santa Rosa she operates a violin studio.

Corrine Haverinen, Employee of the Month, November 2017Congratulations to Corrine Haverinen, Instructional Accessibility Specialist with the Distance Education Program, for being named Santa Rosa Junior College’s Employee of the Month for November 2017.

Corrine has worked at the SRJC in a variety of roles since 2000, including web design and graphics, Distance Education (2000-2009), Adjunct Instructor in the Computer Science Department (2001 to 2006, and 2012 to 2015), Internet Specialist in Public Relations (2005 to 2012), and now Instructional Accessibility Specialist Distance Education (2009 to present). She has been a classified employee since 2009.

Corrine was born in Seattle and spent her youth in Seattle and Kent, Washington. She has lived in Sonoma County since 1996, when she decided to leave the city life of San Francisco.

In her role as Instructional Accessibility Specialist Corrine helps faculty create and adjust course materials for accessibility compliance. She also maintain the Distance Education website (which is over 200 pages). She credits her varied experiences at SRJC, which afforded her the opportunity to interface with many different sectors and people in the college community, with helping her succeed in her current position. Corrine was the first person to do accessibility compliance work for academic materials at SRJC, creating training materials and procedures without a model. Her favorite thing about her position is interfacing with faculty. She also finds it gratifying that her work can help disabled and non-disabled students better access and cognitively absorb their class materials. She recently went through a job reclassification, when it became understood that the success of her position required technical skills such as knowledge of HTML, CSS, and use of other multimedia platforms. Diplomacy is key in her job and on the committees she has been a part of, including District Online Committee, District Accessibility Committee, and Web Ad Hoc Committee.

Her supervisor, Lisa Beach, says, “Corrine works tirelessly to help make sure all SRJC courses are accessible to every student. She works with and for faculty to do this in a way that respects their subject matter expertise. Corrine has great sensitivity to the heavy workload issues faculty face. Faculty find her to be genuine, knowledgeable and responsive to their needs. Corrine is also the epitomy of a team player, agreeing to take on whatever task she is assigned. She works hard and is conscientious about her committments to the department.”

Her personal hobby is fine art painting. She recently opened a new studio in the SOFA arts district of Santa Rosa. She is also a huge fan of the San Francisco Giants. When she learned of her EOM selection, she was surprised as well as grateful and honored to be part of such a vital community, especially during these times.

HOW WAS DONALD TRUMP ELECTED? MICHAEL HALE, PHD

How was Donald Trump elected the 45th President of the United States? Was it the disgruntled white working class looking for a populist savior? Was it hatred of women and anti-feminist attitudes? Was it the death cries of white supremacy fearful of demographic change? Did the Democrats choose the wrong candidate in the primary? Or, do each of these singular causal analyses have limitations that obscure a clearer understanding of this election? Dr. Michael Hale will critically evaluate these common theories and provide his own analysis.

Monday, November 20, 12 noon – 1 pm Newman Auditorium, Emeritus Hall Santa Rosa Campus

arts-lectures.santarosa.eduThe Arts & Lectures Committee will continue planning ways to bring relevant and insightful academic lecture presentations to our campus community.

CLASSIFIED STAFF/MANAGERS IN THE CLASSROOMThe District’s practice is to support Classified Staff and Management Team members who are interested in taking on adjunct instructional assignments, whenever reasonable, to allow for professional development opportunities. For any Classified Staff or Managers who are offered these assignments in addition to their regular assignments, there are a number of considerations.

IN AN EFFORT TO CLARIFY THIS PROCESS AND PROVIDE A METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE HOURS THAT CLASSIFIED STAFF MAY NEED TO REDUCE THEIR ASSIGNMENTS AND TO ALLOW FOR THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THESE REQUESTS TO BE APPROVED IN ADVANCE OF THE ASSIGNMENT, A WORKGROUP HAS DEVELOPED GUIDELINES AND AN APPROVAL DOCUMENT.

Please see the Pre-Authorization for Classified Staff and Management Team to Accept Adjunct Faculty Assignments at https://hr.santarosa.edu/sites/hr.santarosa.edu/files/5.1%20Class-MgtTeachingGuidelines.pdf.

If you are a Classified Staff member or Manager who is offered an adjunct assignment, please review these guidelines and submit the form to your immediate supervisor prior to accepting the offer of assignment.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Sarah Hopkins, Director, Human Resources, [email protected] 707.527.4831, hr.santarosa.edu

NOV. 18, 24, & 25 (NO SHOW DEC. 1 OR 2) DEC. 8, 9, 15, & 16 There is so much to explore in the vastness of deep space that a single planetarium show cannot cover it all. However, this season, we'd like to take you on a journey deep into the winter sky to explore beautiful, strange, and awe-inspiring cosmic spectacles. Once a month, we give a general tour of stars and planets visible to the naked eye. This program, however, is less a tour of the sky and more a safari to glimpse those things that lurk in the depths of the universe. Usually unseen by the human eye alone, these objects when observed, exalt us with unparalleled beauty through the eyepiece of a telescope or on the dome of a planetarium!

October Fires Media Report

The news reporting of the several wildfires in the counties of Sonoma and Napa, as well as the recovery efforts and personal stories that came after, spread throughout the country, reaching millions of people. Thanks to assistance from one of our sister community colleges, we were able to track the reach of these stories, indicating the size of the audiences exposed to them. Live updates by local publications on the repercussions of the wildfires and important numbers caught national attention, but specific stories about evacuations and the personal impacts of the wildfires on members of the community reached even broader audiences.

Continuous live updates by the San Francisco Chronicle, picked up by several other publications in the country, reached approximately 147 million people. These updates contained numbers such as the death toll, the buildings that were destroyed, and the containment of the fires, as well as live announcements of evacuation orders.

FLU SHOTSWe are pleased to announce two newly established resources available at the college in the coming weeks/months.

Free Flu Shots For Students, Staff, Community Members, Adults And Children

Safeway will be coming to the college, with their medical professionals, to provide us with access to free flu shots!

This is in response to our local disaster, where many of us have changed living conditions, stress is weakening our immune systems, and we are sharing more personal space with others than usual.

Vulnerability to a higher level of influenza infection and transmission can best be addressed through vaccination (along with hand washing, covering coughs, staying home when sick, and more).

Please share the following information as to when these will be easily accessible for our community. Our students in particular need this information. Also see the attached flier.

If these opportunities are missed, students may still make an appointment for a flu shot at Student Health Services for $15.

Dates/Times:

Santa Rosa Campus, Bertolini, Student Activity Center

Wednesday, November 29th 10AM to 3 PM

Petaluma Campus, Richard Call Building, Room 609

Thursday, November 30th 10AM to 3PM

Health Insurance, MediCal and Cal Fresh Enrollment Counselors at the College

As you may have heard, California’s open enrollment period for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act, is from November 1st through January 31st (longer than many other states). So the time is now to review coverage options, and encourage those not getting employer sponsored health benefits to take advantage of these counseling services offered on our SR campus and throughout the community.

Many of our lower income students qualify for both MediCal (health coverage) and Cal Fresh (food benefits), and not enough of them are applying to receive them. ACA enrollment counselors also can sign individuals up for MediCal and Cal Fresh. So having these counselors on campus makes it very convenient to access any of these benefits. We recently have expanded public benefit enrollment services in the Race Building, Student Health Services department.

Certified Health Insurance Enrollment Counselor appointments available daily

Santa Rosa , Monday - Friday 527-4445

Petaluma Campus Call for an appointment 778-3919

Thank you for your efforts towards keeping our community healthy! For more information: Susan Quinn, MSN, NP, PHN, Director, Student Health Services, [email protected]

Environmental Health & Safety | https://ehs.santarosa.edu/ | 707-527-4803

Indoors:• If you are indoors, stay there, and

drop to the floor and take cover under a sturdy desk or table, and hold on to it firmly until the shaking stops. In other words: Drop! Cover! Hold On!

• Protect your head and neck with your arms. Avoid glass, hazardous materials, exterior walls, windows, hanging and heavy objects.

• If in a wheel chair, quickly move toward cover if available, lock the wheels, and cover your head.

• Do not shelter in doorways!

Outdoors:• If outdoors, move to an open area

away from falling hazards such as building walls, overhead power lines, tree limbs and light poles.

After the earthquake: • Stay calm and evaluate the

surroundings.• Evacuate as necessary.• Move to an Evacuation Assembly

Area to receive further information and assistance.

• Regroup and take roll of who is OK, injured or missing.

• Notify Emergency Personnel of persons with disabilities or functional needs that need assistance.

• Provide first aid based upon your level of training.

• Do not go into damaged areas or buildings because additional aftershocks can cause structural collapse.

EARTHQUAKEFIRE (EVACUATION)If you observe smoke or fire:• Activate the fire alarm using a manual pull station and notify district police. • EVACUATE the building and notify others as you exit. • Do not use elevators. • Notify Emergency Personnel of persons with disabilities or functional needs

that need assistance. • Move to an Evacuation Assembly Area to receive further information and

assistance.

SHELTER-IN-PLACEWhen an evacuation is not safe or conditions are more dangerous outside (e.g. severe weather, chemical spill) it may be safer to shelter-in-place. • The District will activate appropriate methods of emergency notification.• Immediately seek refuge inside the nearest building. • Move to rooms without windows if possible.• Close any open windows and doors if you cannot move.• Rooms that have little or no ventilation are preferred.• Try to block windows and doors with clothing or towels to block airflow. Wet

clothing or towels create a better seal against airflow.• Only come out when you are told that it is safe by District officials or

emergency personnel at the scene.

POWER OUTAGEOR UTILITY FAILUREContact facilities operations: Santa Rosa: (707) 527-4231, Petaluma: (707) 778-3976After hours, call District Police• If there is a possible danger to building occupants, evacuate the building and

call the District Police.• Notify Emergency Personnel of persons with disabilities or functional needs

that need assistance.• The District Administration will decide on the status of classes based on the

situation. It typically takes at least 15 minutes to assess the situation.

ACTIVE SHOOTERRun!• If it’s possible to get away from

danger, do so. If the threat is in your building or area always try to escape or evacuate, even when others insist on staying.

• Once out of the line of fire, try to prevent others from walking into the danger zone and call District Police.

Hide!• If it’s not possible to get out safely,

or if the threat is external to your building, find a place to hide.

• Act quickly and quietly.• Try to secure the hiding place as

much as possible. Turn out lights, and if possible, remember to lock doors. Silence ringers and vibration mode on cell phones. If there isn’t a safe room or closet, try to hide behind large objects that may offer protection.

• Try to remain quiet and calm

Fight!• As a last resort, if life is at risk,

either alone or working together as a group, fight!

• Act with aggression. Improvise weapons. Disarm the shooter. Commit to taking the shooter down, no matter what. District Police Officers are trained to respond without delay to begin a rapid search towards the gunfire to meet the shooter.

• Do not expect police to assist or tend to wounded victims until the shooter is no longer a threat.

• When confronted by police, keep your hands in plain sight (fingers spread), don’t make sudden movements, and follow their directions

HAZARDOUS MATERIALIndoor spill:• If a chemical spill occurs within a

building, immediately notify the District Police.

• Warn others and block entry into the hazardous area until the Emergency Personnel arrive.

• Evacuate as necessary.• In general, move uphill and

upwind from a spill.

Outdoor spill:• If a chemical spill occurs outside of

a building or from an off campus source, follow shelter-in-place procedures.

Chemical exposure:• Notify Emergency Personnel if the

material has gotten onto your skin, clothing or shoes.

• Do not leave the area until you have been checked.

BOMB THREAT OR SUSPICIOUS OBJECTSIf you receive a bomb threat or observe a suspicious object: • Contact the District Police, and provide as much information as possible. • Evacuate the area around the object.• Follow instructions from the District Police.

MEDICAL EMERGENCY• Contact the District Police, provide information on the type of injury and the

location of the victim.• Provide first aid or medical assistance if required. • Remain with the injured individual until help arrives. • If the injured person is unconscious and not breathing start CPR, if trained.
