Members of the Augsburg Community,

You are invited to participate in a study focusing on the mental health impact of Operation Metro Surge, in which the Department of Homeland Security sent approximately 3000 ICE and Border Control agents to the Twin Cities beginning in December 2025 and officially lasting through mid-February of 2026.

Prof. James Vela-McConnell, in the Department of Sociology here at Augsburg, is conducting an anonymous survey that is intended to further document the impact of this event on our community and ourselves and you are invited to participate. This online survey should take approximately 30 minutes and can be completed at your convenience. At the end of the survey, you will have the opportunity to enter a raffle for one of six $50 gift cards or one of eight $25 gift. Alternatively, the raffle winners may choose to donate the value of their gift card to a local organization working to support immigrant residents of the Twin Cities metro.

To take the survey, check your emails for your invitation to participate or simply click on the link below for the flyer with the link & QR code.

Also, we are hoping to include as many residents of the Twin Cities area as possible in this research on the mental health impact of Operation Metro Surge. Please feel free forward the flyer and invite your local family, friends, neighbors, etc. to participate. In addition to the entire Augsburg community, anyone who lives and/or works in the Twin Cities metro region and is 18 years of age or older may participate.

Thank you in advance for your participation.

On May 12 we will be moving from passwords to passphrases for the campus. You are not required to do anything at that time. But on or after May 12 when you change your password the new rules will apply. For most of our “average” folks, who do not have access to institutional data for their job, once you change to a passphrase you will not need to change it again. For more details read our Passphrase FAQ. https://sites.augsburg.edu/it/get-help/passphrases-faq/
