Action: Stop HERC – Let Minneapolis Breathe – Tuesday, August 15, 1 p.m.
submitted by gilmerje@augsburg.edu
The campaign to shut down HERC is now entering a more public and critical phase. We invite you to join next Tuesday August 15 at 1:00pm at the Hennepin County Board of Commissioners meeting in downtown Minneapolis.
Please RSVP so we can send updates about the event, county meeting rules, and our demands: https://actionnetwork.org/events/rally-to-shut-down-herc-trash-burner/
This is an important action– the most important for people to join so far in this campaign. A wide range of people will speak directly to the commissioners, including: doctors, union leaders, scientists, teachers, waste workers and experts, and impacted community members. We need to back them. If we create enough pressure now, we can compel the county commissioners to set in motion HERC’s closure. County staff are already preparing a closure plan because of our work this last legislative session. Now we need these elected commissioners to ensure there’s a date attached to that plan.
Read more here: https://sahanjournal.com/climate-environment/herc-closing-plan-hennepin-county-bonding-bill/
Please bring your people!
Location: Government Center A2400, Board of Commissioners chamber, 300 South Sixth Street Minneapolis, MN 55487. To get to Room A2400, go up the escalator, then go through security for elevator A (not C) to the 24th floor.
Transportation: light rail (Blue & Green lines to Government Plaza); street parking; or *let us know if you need a ride on RSVP form*
Arrival Time: Aim to arrive at least 15 minutes before 1pm to make time for getting through the body scanner.
In solidarity,

Is it time to move your beginning Spanish-speaking skills to a higher level? Are you looking for another course to add into your schedule?

submitted by bierbaub@augsburg.edu
2023–24 parking permits are on sale now. Working with Municipal Parking Services (MPS), Augsburg is moving to a virtual parking permit system with camera enforcement this fall.

Augsburg Policies Regarding Cannabis Use
submitted by farrisr@augsburg.edu
Starting on August 1, Minnesota became the nation’s 23rd state to legalize recreational cannabis use for adults 21 years of age and older. This notice outlines Augsburg University policies regarding marijuana in light of the new state law.
Although cannabis will be legal under Minnesota state law, it is still illegal under federal law in almost all forms. In accordance with the federal Drug Free Schools and Communities Act, Augsburg will continue to:
***Prohibit the use, possession, and distribution of cannabis (medical and recreational) on campus or at any off-campus activity sponsored by or affiliated with the university (e.g., athletic events, conferences, retreats, class trips, internships, remote work, etc.).
***Prohibit all students from being under the influence of cannabis while on campus or while participating in off-campus activities sponsored by or affiliated with the university.
***Prohibit any student under the age of 21 from using, possessing, or distributing cannabis, both on and off campus.
Any individual alleged to have violated these policies will be subject to the university’s Conduct Adjudication Process (for students) or procedures outlined in the Employee Handbook (for employees).
The Center for Wellness and Counseling and the StepUP® program are available as free and confidential resources for students with additional questions or concerns related to substance use. Employees are encouraged to refer to the Employee Assistance Program for support with substance abuse concerns.
