University Name Change: Social Media Images Available for Download

submitted by weisss@augsburg.edu

We’re getting so close to September 1 when we officially will be known as “Augsburg University!” With that in mind, now is the time to block time on your calendar to update your department’s Inside Augsburg pages, Engage Blogs, and department social media accounts.

To help with the transition of your department’s social media accounts, MarComm staff has developed some branded profile and cover photos designed for use on Facebook and Twitter, but also appropriate for other social media platforms, too.

We’re asking that official academic and staff departments, and chartered student organizations, select from among these profile and cover photos to launch your official social media accounts as Augsburg University. We hope to kick off the new academic year with a unified show of force around our branded images. Doing so will reinforce to our public audiences — prospective students and their families, alumni, corporate and foundation partners, and lawmakers — that we are a cohesive, unified community.

MarComm staff already converted top-tier, official social media accounts held by Augsburg. This work was done in advance of other departments to understand any kinks in the changes and so that if your department needs assistance, we are more readily available to help you.

Full details on on the Augsburg University Name Change blog.

Business Cards and Personalized Letterhead Pre-order

submitted by davenpoj@augsburg.edu

Augsburg University business cards and personalized letterhead are now ready to pre-order! You must place your order by 4 p.m. Monday, August 21, in order to receive them the last week in August. Prices will be cheaper if you order by the pre-order deadline. Prices will depend on the number of employees who participate in the pre-order. Based on aggressive projections, estimated prices are on this price chart: http://web.augsburg.edu/centralservices/University_custom_printed_items_pre-order_prices.xlsx

The order site is where it always has been: Inside Augsburg, Central Services (note the user ID and password listed; they are NOT your Augsburg network login).

Business cards and personalized letterhead both come in two styles: general and athletics (very few departments use personalized letterhead). Note that general (non-personalized) letterhead is being ordered by Central Services and you will have the opportunity to requisition these next week via the upcoming NEW copy request and paper supplies storefront online order system.

Please encourage your co-workers to order their business cards by the pre-order deadline. Please, direct questions to the Copy Center at 612-330-1054.

Personalized Envelopes Pre-order

submitted by davenpoj@augsburg.edu

If you are one of the few departments that use personalized envelopes, the new Augsburg University envelopes are now ready to order! You must place your order by 4 PM Monday, August 21 in order to receive them the last week in August. Or, order them whenever you want thereafter.

The order site is where it always has been: Inside Augsburg, Central Services. Note, if you haven’t created a user name and login for this envelope site, you need to create one on your first visit. There is not a shared credential like the other order sites. Your own login enables you to reorder an exact item by going to your order history. If you have a login already, check your history to see if you have ordered your envelope before. If so, click reorder and the personalization will simply be transferred to the new University envelope.

Personalized envelopes come in many sizes, all with the general Augsburg University return address. There is room for up to two lines of personalization above the address. Personalized envelopes are significantly more expensive than general envelopes (because you would order a smaller quantity for your department than the larger order of general envelopes placed for the entire University), so if there is not a specific purpose for personalizing, the general envelopes should serve your mailing purposes well. Note that general (non-personalized) envelopes are being ordered by Central Services and you can requisition these next week via the upcoming NEW copy request and paper supplies storefront online order system.

Please, direct questions to the Copy Center at 612-330-1054.

Copy Center Accepting Augsburg College Paper for Repurposing

submitted by greena@augsburg.edu

The Environmental Stewardship Committee will be repurposing Augsburg College paper (e.g., letterhead) into notepads this fall! When you’re ready to get rid of your extra paper, you can drop it off at the Copy Center. In September, notepads and scratch paper will be available. Recycling is great, but repurposing is even better!
