Subject: New Parking Lot "L" Open

Submitter:
Krista Young, Communications and Parking Manager, Public Safety

Message: The new parking lot in the SE corner of campus at the intersection of 25th Ave S and Butler Pl is open and available for use. Smaller aspects of the project (such as signs and lights) are still under construction and will be finished as soon as possible.

The new lot is called lot "L." Right now, any vehicle with a Fac/Staff, WEC/Grad, Commuter, or lot L Visitor permit may park in the lot. The lot will be posted with more detailed parking information once its signs are finished. For questions, please contact Krista Young at x1711 or John Pack at x1644.


Subject: Vehicles on Campus Over Break

Submitter:
Krista Young, Communications and Parking Manager, Public Safety

Message: If you are leaving your vehicle on campus unattended over winter break, please park it in Lot G (the lot behind the WEC/Grad Admissions house) before you leave. You do not need a permit to park there beginning on Monday, December 12th through Saturday, January 21st.

This makes plowing much easier for the Grounds crew. Note that your vehicle may be towed if it is left unattended.

Resident and Commuter permits will be $110 for Spring semester, with full amount due at registration.

New Hall Underground permits will be $360 for Spring semester, with full amount due at registration.

Minneapolis City Street permits will be $25 for one academic year, with full amount due at the time permit is picked up from the City of Minneapolis.

ONLINE PARKING REGISTRATION:
This year our parking system is online. Every student, faculty, and staff member at the college must use the online system. All students interested in a Spring semester permit may register online beginning Monday, December 12th. If you do not register online, you are not eligible for a permit. However, completing the registration does not guarantee you a permit at this time; permits will be sold on a first-come, first-serve basis.

TO PAY FOR AND PICK UP YOUR PERMIT:
To pick up a permit, you must have completed the online registration in advance. On Thursday, January 19th, please come to the Enrollment Center in Sverdrup Hall to pick up a permit between the hours of 8:30am ö 5pm. If there are any permits left, they will be sold Friday, January 20th from 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. To get a permit, you must bring a form of payment (check, cash, or credit card), a photo ID, and proof of ownership of your vehicle. The only forms of proof of ownership we will accept are license tab renewal forms or vehicle registration. Please call x1717 if you need additional directions to the Enrollment Center.

MINNEAPOLIS CITY STREET PERMITS:
City street permits are the only permits students may purchase without using the online system. Only Augsburg College resident students will be eligible for Minneapolis City street permits.

To obtain a City street permit, please to the Enrollment Center in Sverdrup on Thursday, January 19th between the hours of 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. to pick up a letter of residency that will make you eligible for a Minneapolis City street permit. If there are any permits left, letters of residency will also be given out Friday, January 20th from 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. The letter of residency will allow you to purchase a permit from the City of Minneapolis. Available letters of residency will be given out on a first-come, first-served basis. You will need to bring a photo ID when you come to pick up your letter. Please call x1717 if you need additional directions to the Enrollment Center. Please remember you can only purchase an Augsburg permit OR a City permit ö not both.

USING THE ONLINE SYSTEM:
Open your web browser and go to: augsburg.parkadmin.com .
Don NOT type in www or http or the site will not open.

ð On this page, click on the "Create New Account" button, then fill out the registration information and follow the prompts on each page.

The search committee is pleased to announce that we are bringing three presidential candidates to our campus in January. These three individuals come from a very strong and diverse national pool of candidates. In January, we will provide a detailed schedule of events, and, of course, their names. Between now and then, the candidates are

Candidate A will be on campus January 23 - 25.
Candidate B will be on campus January 25 - 27.
Candidate C will be on campus January 31 - February 1.

The schedule will provide several opportunities for staff, faculty, students, alumni, and Regents to meet with each candidate and learn more about their preparation for this important job. We will provide a process that offers you the opportunity to give important feedback on the candidates to the search committee. Your input will be very important and valuable.

This is an exciting time in our process. We look forward to introducing the candidates to you.
