Final Day to Look at Chair Options for the Commons

Please go the NE corner of the main dining area of the Commons to view eight options of chairs. You'll see four tall chairs, along with the likely choice for high table. Also, there are four short chairs to go with the lower tables, which will match the base and top of the high table. Attached to the table you will see the proposed layout for the cafeteria area.

Each chair is marked on its tag. A-D for tall chairs, and 1-4 for short chairs. Please email your choices for favorite/most comfortable tall and short chair to Kristin Hansen, Assistant to the Vice Presidents, at hansenk1@augsburg.edu.

The samples will be available for view until the end of the day on Monday, June 10. The chosen chairs will be announced on Inside Augsburg by the end of the June, and the new tables and chairs will be in place by the start of the fall semester.

Thanks for your help!
