Greetings Augsburg Community,
There are changes coming this fall that impact AugSem, Auggie Days, and the Convocation Schedule.
Changes to First Year First Day
In the past, AugSem meetings were a component of First Year First Day. This year, AugSem faculty will not meet with their AugSem class on First Year First Day. Instead, all faculty and staff are encouraged to dress in their Auggie gear or academic regalia to form the traditional clapping tunnel to welcome new students as they process to the opening convocation (Edor Nelson Field – Procession; arrive at 10:15 to line up | Si Melby Gym – Convocation). Following the convocation, first year students will enjoy lunch and will engage with the remainder of the Auggie Days program.
First-year Convocation: Oct. 8, noon – 1 pm, Hoversten Chapel
In addition to opening convocation, this year we will offer a first-year convocation on Wednesday, Oct. 8. First-year convocation is required for all students enrolled in AUG101. This year’s speaker is Xavier Tavera Castro, Assistant Professor of Art at Carleton College. Xavier will discuss his scholarship and what motivates his work, as well as his professional journey and lessons that he has learned.
Augsburg Exploration Day
Also on Wednesday Oct. 8, there will be no afternoon classes to allow time for academic activities and community building. First-year students will participate in one-on-one mentor meetings scheduled throughout the afternoon with their AugSem instructors, a required component of AUG101. Second-year students are invited to celebrate declaring their majors. Each School will host an open house to welcome new majors, and second-year students are strongly encouraged to attend the events. These open houses will also offer a good opportunity for first-year students to build rapport with faculty and students within each School. In addition, various campus offices and student organizations will offer opportunities for connection throughout the afternoon.
