Subject: Update & Request: Selection Process for Dean

Submitter:
Douglas E Green, Professor, English

Message: Though we cannot respond individually to your letters and e‑mails, the Committee for the Selection of Nominees for Dean of the College wishes to thank faculty who have responded to our query:

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PROCESS OF SELECTING THE NOMINEE(S) FOR DEAN OF THE COLLEGE? PLEASE PROVIDE THE RATIONALE FOR YOUR VIEWS.

We have received over 25 responses and hope that by 5 pm, Friday, 1 June, we will have responses from even more of the over 150 voting members of the faculty. We know how busy you are, but we urge you to participate actively in this process. Even if you have spoken publicly about your views in the past or talked with members of the Committee, we need you to make your views known directly and officially to the Committee in writing.

Please note that the SNDC Committee is interested in the reasons behind your position, so that we can better understand faculty views about the process for selecting the Dean. All responses will be read only by the SNDC Committee; the President and the Interim Dean will not see them. They will be treated confidentially by all Committee members.

All responses are due by 5 pm, Friday, 1 June. They may be submitted either by e‑mailing deansearch@augsburg.edu or by submitting a hard copy to Lois Bosch (CB 253), Nancy Fischer (CB 116), or Mark Strefeler (CB 230).

As we fulfill our charge of conferring with the President, this is your opportunity to be heard. If you have questions, please feel free to contact individual members of the Committee. We appreciate the time and effort your participation requires and look forward to hearing from you by 5 pm, Friday, 1 June.

Subject: Campus Kitchen!

Submitter:
Paul C Pribbenow, President, Office of the President

Message: Members of the Augsburg community:

Campus Kitchen is a program that I care deeply about and is an important part of what this College stands for. Please join me (I’m signed up to work one of the shifts!) in reaching out to our neighbors.

Augsburg’s Campus Kitchen is looking for volunteers to cover several shifts during the month of June. Our students are the primary volunteers that assist in the preparation and delivery of Campus Kitchen meals. During the summer months, when the majority of our students are away from campus, the volunteer efforts of Augsburg staff and faculty become increasingly important.

Please consider working at one of the shifts Campus Kitchen needs volunteers for:

June 6, 13 & 20 from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm - preparing meals
June 17 from 5:30 pm to 9:00 pm - cooking and serving meals
Tuesdays and Thursdays, between now and the end of June - deliver meals

All meals are prepared in the Augsburg kitchen. For those who offer to deliver meals, transportation is provided and there will be a shift leader taking the group of volunteers.

To volunteer, please contact Rachel Vallens at 1624 or vallens@augsburg.edu

Sincerely,

President Paul C. Pribbenow
