“I understand we all have our differences. But while learning about history I've read about white people coming together, Jews coming together, Latinos coming together, different cultures and religions understanding and coming together despite their differences. Slavery was never something that shocked me. What shocks me is how black people have not yet overcome the odds and we're such strong smart people. Why we can't just stand together?.”

Did you know ? The Golden gate bridge was open a day like today back in 1937, it took 5 years to build up. (83 years ago)
On opening day–“Pedestrian Day”–some 200,000 bridge walkers marveled at the 4,200-foot-long suspension bridge, which spans the Golden Gate Strait at the entrance to San Francisco Bay and connects San Francisco and Marin County. The next day, on May 28, the Golden Gate Bridge opened to vehicular traffic.

It’s finally the end of the school year and one

It’s finally the end of the school year and one of the biggest concerns we have as students are our books.
When the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, and the campus closed, many students were concerned with what to do with their books at the end of the spring semester. The fear of paying a late fee or holding onto a textbook that has certainly lost its significance now that classes have ended has been looming over us.

The drop off location is near Building 4, around the Skyline College Express, and will occur on these dates:
May 21, Thursday: 12-6p.m
May 27, Wednesday: 12-6p.m
May 28, Thursday: 12-6p.m
If you feel uncomfortable going on campus or simply the dates do not align with your schedule, the Skyline College Bookstore has also provided another way, which is to mail it to them.

The newest institution inaugurated ever since a shelter-in-place ordinance was issued by local governments.

With the current state of the world being succumbed with a pandemic, it was advised by different health organizations globally, how we should contribute to the effort of flattening the curve for COVID-19 victims by staying at home. The idea enhanced community quarantine, lockdown, shelter-in-place, and so on, was thus adapted.

As a consequence, all nonessential in-person meetings have since been suspended, including face-to-face instructions. So in turn, mass majority of schools, colleges, and universities around the country have agreed to deliver class sessions through a video communications application you most likely have heard of already.

SMCCCD Names New Chancellor :
Michael Claire, was named chancellor of the San Mateo County Community College district April 24, replacing Ron Galatolo, who is under investigation by the district for misappropriation of funds and misuse of position.

With uncertainty and anxiety in our community and across the globe, the Board is proud that Chancellor Claire will see the District not only through this unprecedented event and beyond, but we expect he will do so with a focus on equity, inclusion, collaboration and engagement.” The board of trustees will consider a written contract in its next meeting May 13.

Due to COVID-19, all sports games have been postpo

Due to COVID-19, all sports games have been postponed or cancelled for the 2020 spring semester. While the California Community College Athletics Association (CCCAA). Made the announcement on March 12 that the spring sports season was postponed this year. However, for the Skyline baseball team, it was a shame for some sophomore players who might transfer after this year, it definitely has become a large impact for them. “For the daily routine it really changes a lot since we don’t have classes at school or baseball anymore,” Leong said. “Everyday but sunday we had baseball for pretty much four hours then plus school it took up a lot of our day. So now for me I just have a lot of free time.”- Sophomore catcher Matt Leong.
He had a .441 batting average along with 14 RBIs on the season. The season would have been a shine for him while Leong expressed the postponed season changed his daily routine.

Among the players at Skyline, most of them will transfer after their sophomore year, since the season is suspended, all transfer application plans will be delayed. Go to theskylineview.com to continue reading. 🗞

Ramadan or رمضان starts in the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and it’s celebrated by Muslims worldwide.
It’s time to fast, pray, gather, reflect and help the community. This is part of the five pillars of Islam and it’s in honor of Muhammad’s first Revelation. They fast from sunrise to sunset and some people believe that fasting it’s a “sacrifice” that would be rewarded with “blessings” and spirituality.🌅 If you are celebrating Ramadan : رمضان مبارك Ramdan Mubarak. 🌙 #ramadan2020
