General Education Revision Update

submitted by freiheit@augsburg.edu

Dear Augsburg Community,

We are delighted to share that the 2023 General Education Revision proposal was approved by the Board of Regents in May and initial steps in general education implementation are underway. This summer the AAC General Education subcommittee (AAC:GE) is working to develop a streamlined process for reviewing how current general education courses may be migrated into the new general education curriculum. Information about general education implementation will be available on the General Education Revision 2023 Community Moodle page.

With gratitude,
The AAC General Education subcommittee
Rachel Bergman (Arts), Jacob Enger (Business/AAC), Melissa Hensley (Health), Matt Maruggi (Humanities and Social Sciences), Ana Ribeiro (Natural Sciences/AAC), Tom Kelsey (Registrar/AAC), Stacy Freiheit (GenEd/AAC)

If you are interested, please send an email to our lab coordinator: Nick Parkos (parkosn@augsburg.edu) and we will send you a link to an online survey that contains more detailed information about the study as well as a consent form.

Would You Like a Metal Bookcase?

submitted by vanclev1@augsburg.edu

The library has two beige metal bookcases that need a new home. They have adjustable shelves. Both have visible signs of wear and age, but a fresh coat of paint would fix that!

Here is a photo: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kj36w76YganQtc8liqUSRMH8hXFESlzm/view?usp=sharing

These measure 3’w x 1’3″d x 5′ 4.75″h. Two are currently available. They will be available for one week.
