Employee Action Required: ADP Payroll Transition

submitted by payroll@augsburg.edu

Augsburg is moving to ADP Payroll processing, which will impact access to new pay statements (currently referred to as payslips). This transition is occurring as our current system, Unit4, no longer supports payroll tax updates. This shift is a crucial step in ensuring compliance with evolving payroll tax regulations and serves as an interim step in the transition to a new ERP, with an anticipated implementation in 2027.

All employees must register for an ADP account to access pay statements and make changes to direct deposit or W-4 tax withholding. More information on creating a new account has been shared via email. Contact payroll@augsburg.edu with any questions.

TODAY – Free Show – Sinkane – Sudanese Afrofuturist Funk Rocker at the Cedar Cultural Center

submitted by gilmerje@augsburg.edu

Start: 6:00 PM / End: 8:00 PM / All Ages
Mixed Seated and Standing + Bring Your Own Chair

Concessions will be available for purchase from The Cedar, and food from local and neighbourhood restaurants will be available for purchase.

Sinkane fuses elements of krautrock, electronica, reggae, free jazz and funk rock with Sudanese pop to create music inspired by his experiences. Despite–or rather, because of–his unclassifiable sound, the City Slang signee is championed by a multitude of musical legends. Prior to embarking on his solo career, he worked with Eleanor Friedberger, Caribou, of Montreal, Born Ruffians, and Yeasayer as a session musician. As Band Leader and Music Director of the Atomic Bomb! He’s collaborated with rotating group members including David Byrne, Money Mark, Damon Albarn, Dev Hynes, Alexis Taylor, Amadou and Mariam, Jamie Lidell, Pharoah Sanders, Joshua Redman, among others.

Gallab’s music is his personal story, but it’s also everyone’s story. This truly universal approach leaves no room for irony or cynicism. Fueled by Gallab’s very heartbeat, it erupts into an ambitious, dazzling sound only conceivable by Sinkane.
