(Forum access is currently limited to Augsburg faculty and staff.)
Message: For the new employees this year, and as a refresher to those returning, the following guidelines explain how to request work to be done by the Facilities Department. All requests for maintenance, grounds and custodial work should be called in to Public Safety Dispatch at x1717. The dispatcher will then generate a work order and may also call a maintenance staff person to handle the problem immediately, depending on the urgency of the problem. Any follow-up on a work request that has already been called in to Public Safety Dispatch should be directed to Terri Adams (x1566) in the Facilities Office. If you have any questions about this process, please call Terri at x1566.
Message: On Saturday morning, Sept. 15, the wireless networks on campus will be temporarily unavailable as Information Technology staff perform planned maintenance. The networks (Aug-Guest, Aug-Student, and Aug-Facstaff) will become unavailable at 8 a.m.; access should be restored by noon. |

Message: The Office of Undergraduate Research and Graduate Opportunity (URGO) is hosting LSAT Prep on campus this fall. It costs only $100 for current students and $150 for Augsburg alums or others, and includes test prep materials. *Compare to a $580 course cost at the U of M and over $1300 if taken through Kaplan or Princeton Review!*
Message: Join with other Auggies to support the Church World Service's annual CROP (Communities Responding to Overcome Poverty) Walk, a symbolic walk of solidarity to raise funds for international development and sustainable agriculture projects as well as the good work of local organizations. This year's local beneficiaries happen to include the Brian Coyle Center's foodshelf, which we've pledged to support in the past.
Message:
Information Technology and Human Resources are excited to announce the availability of the vast Atomic Learning library of software tutorials to all Augsburg faculty, staff and students. This campus-wide license offers training that would be costly to do externally. This system is essentially training-on-demand and provides self-directed training when people want it in their office.

From Kathy McBride, CGE faculty in Nicaragua: Hurricane Felix slammed into the Atlantic Coast of Nicaragua, leaving over 50,000 homeless and hundreds of indigenous Miskitu people dead. The stories of mothers, fathers and children talking about how the hurricane ripped their families apart is heart breaking, and there has been a lot of weeping. Many are now missing, while others collect dead bodies from the sea.
