Goodbye to Tim Dougherty next Tuesday

After three fine years of being part of the Augsburg community, first as the Campus Kitchen coordinator and most recently as the Community and Civic Engagement coordinator, Tim Dougherty will be leaving on August 13. From here he'll be crossing Riverside Ave to enter the Rhetoric and Scientific and Technical Communication graduate program at the University of Minnesota.

Those who know him know what a fortune this is for the University. To name a few things he's done here: he brought the Campus Kitchen to where it is today; started the Pedalers for Peace spring break bicycle trip to New Orleans; was integral in planning for Focus the Nation; and led the creation of the gorgeous new community garden on the corner of campus.

To say goodbye, we'll be hosting a happy hour at Acadia Cafe (www.acadiacafe.com) at the corner of Riverside and Cedar next Tuesday August 12 from 5 p.m. til whenever. Please join us, enjoy this great new establishment in the neighborhood, and send Tim back to school in good style.
