Summer Permits Now On Sale

submitted by hartkop1@augsburg.edu

Summer parking permits are now on sale. Please navigate to Inside Augsburg and to “Parking Services” and log in using Augnet Credentials. Fall, Year and Spring parking passes may still show, please make sure you are choosing Summer Semester. If you have a Year Permit there is no need for a Summer Permit.

If you only see the option of “Daily Visitor Parking” this mean you have potentially logged in with a non-Augsburg email or no email at all. Going back go Inside Augsburg and Parking Services in order to see the appropriate permits and permit rates.

Please be aware that Spring permits expire on 5/31/2025. Summer permits will be valid until 9/6/2025

If there are any questions, as always please reach out to parking@augsburg.edu for any questions. **Underground permits are requested still via email. If you have a valid Spring permit, you will be inquired if you want to maintain it during Summer. **

Teaching and Learning

Get Paid to Teach, Research, or Study Abroad: Meet a Fulbright Winner This Thursday at 3:30 pm

submitted by devries@augsburg.edu

Get paid to teach, research, or study abroad after graduation with the Fulbright program. This prestigious program was founded in 1946 by Senator J. William Fulbright as a cultural exchange program with the goal of improving intercultural relations, cultural diplomacy, and intercultural competence between the people of the United States and other countries through mutual exchange of people, knowledge, and skills.

College graduates can get paid to teach, research, and study abroad through the Fulbright program. Current juniors, seniors, and graduates should start planning their applications now. Typically, students work with me over the summer to prepare their essays. The campus deadline for submission will be Friday, September 5.

Learn more at a Zoom info session on Thursday, April 24 from 3:30 to 4:30 pm.

Notes for Graduates

submitted by gunkel@augsburg.edu

Colleagues, the library needs your help! To celebrate our graduates, we will be creating a window of inspiration, filled with post-it notes with life advice, uplifting messages, and general words of wisdom. The idea is that our graduates can come through the library and take a post-it or two that brings encouragement, motivation for the future, or a message that just makes them smile. One message per post-it note!

We would love to have messages from across our campus community for our students to take with them. We have blank post-its at the Service Desk in the library, or if you contact Tanya with the email in this post, we will send some post-it notes to you or your department. The window of graduation inspiration will go up the week of April 28th, so please drop your notes to the Library Service Desk by May 2nd.

If you’re looking for a moment of joy, this is it.
