Community Guidelines

Seattle Central Community is an unofficial, student-run space. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or monitored by Seattle Central College's administration. Anyone posting here does so as a fellow student, not as staff.

Anonymous does not mean consequence-free

Posts and comments never show your name, nickname, or email. That's meant to make it easier to ask an honest question or share a hard experience — not a license to say things you wouldn't put your name on. Accounts that repeatedly break these guidelines get their content hidden and, eventually, blocked.

Be kind

• Disagree with ideas, not people. No personal attacks, slurs, or pile-ons.
• No harassment, threats, or targeted bullying of another student, professor, or staff member.
• No sharing someone else's personal information (address, phone number, schedule, photos) without their consent — even if you think it's justified.
• No sexual content involving, or directed at, minors, under any framing. This is reported and never tolerated.

Keep it real

• No spam, scams, or repeated self-promotion.
• No impersonating another student, a professor, or the college itself.
• Professor reviews should describe your actual experience in the class — not personal grudges unrelated to teaching.

If something feels unsafe

Every post, comment, story, and review has a Report option. Reporting hides it from your own feed immediately and flags it for student moderators to review. You can also Block an author to stop seeing anything from them, without needing to explain why.

If you're worried about your own or someone else's immediate safety, this app is not the right channel — contact Seattle Colleges Campus Safety or, in an emergency, call 911.

Moderation

Reports are reviewed by student moderators, not college staff. Content that clearly breaks these guidelines can be removed without notice. Repeated or severe violations can result in an account being blocked from posting.

Questions about these guidelines, or about a moderation decision, can go through the app's report flow — there's no separate contact form yet. See also the privacy notice.
