Message: There is now another option for ordering transcripts at Augsburg, on-line ordering!!

Augsburg College has authorized the National Student Clearinghouse to provide transcript ordering through a secured internet transaction. You will need a credit card to use this service and will not be charged until Augsburg College sends your transcript. Of course, you can still order transcripts via the mail or in-person at the Enrollment Center.

Please refer to the transcript ordering information found through the Registrar web page under the link Request a Transcript (near the bottom of the page). You will find a detailed description of your ordering options, including the price schedule. A direct link is: http://www.augsburg.edu/enroll/registrar/transcripts.html

Note, ordering transcripts on-line will have the current price structure, ordering through the mail or in-person will cost $1 more.

Subject: Free Stand-Up Musical - 30 Tickets Available
Submitter: Ross Murray, Campus Ministry Associate; Tutoring Services Coordinator, Campus Ministry and Academic Enrichment

Message: Hello Theatre Lovers,

I got another call on my magic phone today from the Hennepin Theatre Trust with an offer of free theatre tickets for the Augsburg community.

Funny Business is a musical about stand-up comedy. This stand-up musical with a punchline comes to Minneapolis after a successful run in Los Angeles where The Hollywood Reporter called it "terrific entertainment…a wonderful evening of wit and music with lots of laughs."

The action takes place in a comedy club where four stand-up comedians (some up-and-coming, some down on their luck) try to make the big time. A great blend of music and comedy, the production is a showcase for standup comics and their material. The lively score is a blend of rock, pop, blues and gospel.

Funny Business showing at the Hennepin Stages (824 Hennepin Avenue). We have the ability to go on Sunday, September 10 at 5 p.m.. I have 30 tickets available for the first to email me at murray@augsburg.edu. After the first 30, I’ll create a waiting list and see if I can get any more.
