Terry Martin to Retire

After 24 years of service to Augsburg College and the Center for Teaching and Learning, Terry Martin has decided to retire effective September 7. She’s planning to spend more time with her children, grandchildren, and friends, and looks forward to the simple things in life like just taking time to read a book. For most of CTL’s history, she has been the coordinator to put things together, the catalyst to keep things moving, and the archivist to inform us of what happened before. She will be sorely missed. Her last major event is the coordination of our annual faculty and staff orientation this week. She has requested that there be no formal farewell, but I'm sure she won't mind if you stop by to wish her well.

Change to Classroom Trash and Recycling Procedure

Starting fall semester, all trash and recycling receptacles will be removed from classrooms and some meeting rooms throughout campus. Larger containers will be located in strategic hallway or central locations to make the disposal of refuse as easy as possible. Centralizing trash and recycling containers will make recycling and waste disposal more efficient and cost effective here at Augsburg College. Please place your trash and recycling in the appropriate containers at the trash/recycling station nearest to your classroom or meeting room on the way out of the building.

The initiative is being implemented by Custodial Services and Facilities Management in the hopes that it will increase consciousness of the recycling program and prevent commingling of trash and recyclable materials. This practice has been successful at other colleges like University of Minnesota in Bemidji and also at Macalester College.

Please take care to place items in the correct receptacle (for information on what can be recycled, visit http://www.augsburg.edu/green/rrr.html). Thank you for your cooperation and contribution to Augsburg’s efforts to promote green practices.

Large Dog Crate For Sale

I have a large, gently used metal dog crate for sale for $60 or best offer. Dimensions are: 42" L X 28" W X 31" H, purchased from Petco for $120. Double doors, and adjustable size for different sizes as they grow. Our Bernese Mountain Dog puppy, Daisy, used this crate for about 2 months before we broke down and allowed her to roam free (and ruin our furniture). It's clean and ready for a family who has a stronger resolve for crate training! Contact shidla@augsburg.edu for more info.
