Save the Date: CTL Back to School Workshops August 24 and 25

submitted by reederm@augsburg.edu

To kick off the new academic year, CTL is again hosting the Back-to-School Workshops on Wednesday, August 24th and Thursday, August 25th from 9:00am to 3:30pm each day. Workshops and sessions will be held in Hagfors with the final schedule published in mid-August. These Back-to-School workshops are open to and welcome all Augsburg faculty and staff, though they will be primarily focused on teaching.

The goal of these Back-to-School workshops is to focus on “just-in-time” topics that can be immediately put to use in your upcoming Fall courses as well as serving as a social gathering of colleagues to kick off the year.. If you have a concept or teaching strategy/tool that you would like to offer to others by offering a 1 hour workshop or session, please fill out the short form below with your idea no later than August 12th.

If you have any questions or need accommodations for this event, please contact University Events (events@augsburg.edu) or CTL (ctl@augsburg.edu).

Host a Dinner for Our New International Students

submitted by bhowmikp@augsburg.edu

Greetings Faculty and Staff!

A new semester is just around the corner, and luckily we are expecting NEW international students to join us this Fall Semester—representing countries like South Korea, Ethiopia, China, Egypt, South Africa and Norway to name a few!

And guess what? We are almost back to normal numbers for international students: 18 new incoming degree seekers, 5 transfer students, and about 11 exchange students. AMAZING!

As we collaboratively welcome this group, we plan for different experiences including a dinner potentially hosted by you—our faculty and staff members—in your home.

These events create a space for our new students to connect directly with members of our community, AND the dinner provides a time for you to learn about the incoming international students and their goals at Augsburg. It’s really a win-win situation!

Here are the details:
Date: Wednesday, August 24, 2022
Time: Pick up at 5 p.m. with a return to campus around 7 p.m.

We ask that our hosts pick up students from campus and return them once dinner is completed.

COVID status: ALL the new international students coming from abroad are required to follow the CDC and MDH guidelines (see more information in the form).

Thank you!
