Public Safety and Facilities Announcements
Final Days for Free Office Furniture
The facilities department has cleaned furniture storage spaces. We have placed some items in the lower level hallways of Foss Center. These items are free to any takers on a first-come, first-served basis.
If you would like any of the items, mark them as "taken." You must remove the items yourself by the end of the day on Thursday, August 9. Any items left after August 9 will be tossed, even if they are marked as "taken." Please note that these free items are not for use on campus.
Also, if you are aware of any nonprofit organizations interested in the items, please let them know.
Fac/Staff Permits Available for Pick Up
Faculty/staff surface lot permits are available for pick up for those who have completed the registration and payment process. If you have not yet registered, please do so and then allow two business days for Public Safety to process your permit before coming in to pick it up from Public Safety dispatch.
Permit numbers this year have been preprinted. Double check that the permit number you are given at the window matches the permit number you were assigned through Parking Services.
A photo ID is required for permit pick up.

Business Card and Letterhead Changes
As you may have heard, Augsburg College is enhancing our brand identity with the addition of "We Are Called | Auggies." Don't throw away your existing business cards or letterhead, but when you are running low, the new items are ready to order. Along with the change, we are adding and eliminating some styles:
•Gone is the contemporary or style 2 letterhead and business card that I describe as a "paint swoosh."
•The traditional business card remains largely the same, except we have made room for longer job titles.
•We have added a business card with "We Are Called | Auggies" on the back.
•Athletics business cards and letterhead remain unchanged.
•CGE business cards remain unchanged.
•Envelopes are not affected by these changes, other than the discontinuation of the contemporary/style 2 "paint swoosh" when they run out.
We are switching to a new method of printing the business cards and should experience quicker turn around, and prices on some quantities of business cards will be slightly increased. Phone number labels are enhanced from a single letter to a word. There are several choices in a drop down menu, so you can select the word that best describes each phone number you are listing. You will be pleased to note that the order site has been enhanced to include an order history feature. When you go to order more business cards in the future, your previous order will show up. If there are no changes, you can simply re-order without having to enter all the data again.
Also, to reduce the number of websites you have to visit to order items through Central Services, you will now find name badges as a product in the left-hand column on the business cards and letterhead order site. They are the identical name badges that you are used to.
Please order online as you always have, log in to Inside Augsburg> A to Z directory> Central Services> Online ordering> order letterhead, business cards, envelopes and name badges> order business cards, letterhead, and name badges. Note the login and password in red – it is NOT your Augsburg network login.
Feel free to direct questions about the new styles or ordering to me. Click on my name above to email or call ext. 1297.
