As we near the end of another year please don’t forget to take care of your campus mailbox. This includes checking it for any mail, returning your lock and filing out the survey for what you would like us to do with your mail after this semester.
Two weeks after the spring semester ends (on May 23, 2025) we will close all student campus boxes unless they responded to the End of Year survey. If you would like your mail forwarded or would like to keep your mailbox open for the summer, please fill out this survey
(https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSen8Hb9X2VU3VbQWqr9sPleUUk0pJROmx7iM6sr-lfY4vjgMw/viewform?usp=sharing).
Before the fall semester starts we will reassign campus boxes to all residential students. Without completing the survey, it will most likely be a different number.
We are only able to forward 1st Class USPS mail. Packages must be looked at case by case. Some USPS will allow forwarding. (Reply to the Augsburg package email and we will look at that package.) Other packages (UPS, FedEx, Amazon, etc.), magazines, non-profit mail and standard mail will not be forwarded. We can also only forward to USA addresses. The forwarding period for the Augsburg Mailroom is two months from when the request is submitted. Afterward any additional mail we receive will be returned to sender.
We request that you contact the people/business sending you mail and update your address with them. Augsburg is classified as a business so you will not be able to do so through the US Post Office itself. Enrolling in online/electronic bills or statements can also be a smart option, it is environmentally friendly, secure and will often save you time (and sometimes money). Asking us to forward your mail does not change your mailing address with the USPS or Augsburg University, just with the Mailroom.

Thank you as well to Alex Fink, Mike Grewe, Lori Brandt Hale, Morgan Knutzen, Daleana Phillips, Tina Maria Tavera, and Leah Spinosa de Vega for their guidance and wisdom on updated Augsburg Experience Guidelines.

As we near the end of another year please don’t forget to take care of your campus mailbox. This includes checking it for any mail, returning your lock and filing out the survey for what you would like us to do with your mail after this semester.
Two weeks after the spring semester ends (on May 23, 2025) we will close all student campus boxes unless they responded to the End of Year survey. If you would like your mail forwarded or would like to keep your mailbox open for the summer, please fill out this survey
(https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSen8Hb9X2VU3VbQWqr9sPleUUk0pJROmx7iM6sr-lfY4vjgMw/viewform?usp=sharing).
Before the fall semester starts we will reassign campus boxes to all residential students. Without completing the survey, it will most likely be a different number.
We are only able to forward 1st Class USPS mail. Packages must be looked at case by case. Some USPS will allow forwarding. (Reply to the Augsburg package email and we will look at that package.) Other packages (UPS, FedEx, Amazon, etc.), magazines, non-profit mail and standard mail will not be forwarded. We can also only forward to USA addresses. The forwarding period for the Augsburg Mailroom is two months from when the request is submitted. Afterward any additional mail we receive will be returned to sender.
We request that you contact the people/business sending you mail and update your address with them. Augsburg is classified as a business so you will not be able to do so through the US Post Office itself. Enrolling in online/electronic bills or statements can also be a smart option, it is environmentally friendly, secure and will often save you time (and sometimes money). Asking us to forward your mail does not change your mailing address with the USPS or Augsburg University, just with the Mailroom.

Recently, multiple Augsburg accounts were compromised and used to send phishing messages to members of our community. Thank you to the many employees who quickly reported these messages — your vigilance helps protect all of us.
As a reminder:
-Never submit your password or MFA (multi-factor authentication) credentials through a Google Form or any unofficial site. Augsburg will never ask for your login information this way.
-Do not approve MFA requests unless you are actively trying to log into an Augsburg system. An unexpected MFA prompt could be a sign someone else is attempting to access your account.
-If you receive a suspicious message, contact the sender through a separate, trusted method (such as phone) before responding or clicking any links.
-Be cautious and verify before providing any personal information.
Please remember that HR and IT do not send campus-wide announcements for every phishing attempt. Your vigilance and prompt reporting are critical in helping us respond effectively.
Thank you again for your partnership in keeping Augsburg’s systems secure.
