Subject: First meeting on faith and learning this Wednesday
Submitter: John Knight, Associate Director, Center for Faith and Learning

Message: On behalf of the Office of the Dean, the Religion Department and the Exploring Our Gifts Program, we would like to invite you to a conversation on the future of a proposed Augsburg Center for Faith and Learning. Please consider attending one of these two meetings:

Wednesday, April 4, 2:30 – 3:30 p.m.
Or
Monday, April 9, 1:00 – 2:00 p.m.

Both conversations will be held in the Marshall Room.

David Tiede, Mark Tranvik, Phil Quanbeck and John Knight have made several presentations on this idea to the faculty, staff, senior College administration, volunteer leadership and alumni since last fall. You may also recall that this is a proposal to sustain the work of our Lilly grants, in accord with Augsburg 2004. We are moving ahead with our plans and we would like your feedback about the shape of the Center. The latest draft reflects conversations that we have had with a number of people, including many of you. Now we desire a wider conversation.

You can find a draft of a business plan proposal for the Augsburg Center for Faith and Learning on the Exploring Our Gifts public drive, or feel free to email knightj@augsburg.edu and request a copy. We would like you to read the draft (number five) and respond to the following questions:

1. Can you advise or help us identify and articulate the desired educational results related to this proposal? (See especially Exhibit B among the appendices)

2. Can you advise us with regard to the work that will be required to produce the intended results in: a) faculty development, b) student engagement, c) public presence of the ACFL and the College?

3. Finally, is there anything else that you believe requires comment, evaluation or reevaluation?

Our desire is to incorporate as many ideas and insights into a new draft that will be presented to the Board of Regents at the end of April. If you are unable to attend one of these gatherings please feel free to send comments to Mark Tranvik, David Tiede, Phil Quanbeck II or John Knight.

Coffee and treats will be served!

Thank you for your participation in this worthy effort.
