EARN $55 PER TOURNAMENT AS A DEBATE JUDGE!
The Minnesota Urban Debate League is a program of Augsburg University. We provide academic competitive debate programming to middle and high school students. Augsburg alum Awale Osman developed the Somali Debate Institute (now East African Debate League) to provide a culturally specific space for East African students to gain debate skills like public speaking, argumentation, and more. Our East African Debate League provides a space for East African students to celebrate their culture and community while learning debate skills.
This year’s debate topic, held in English, will center on the benefits and drawbacks of culturally-specific versus integrated education systems.
We’re looking for caring adults who have deep ties to the East African community (with or without debate experience!) to join us. As a judge, you’ll listen to students speak, provide constructive feedback, and choose a winner of each debate at weeknight tournaments.
You must be 18+ and pass a background check to volunteer and/or be paid $55/tournament as a debate judge.
Opportunities include:
Tues., December 17th: 3:15-7:15 PM
Tues., January 14th: 3:15-7:15 PM
Tues., February 4th: 3:15-7:15 PM
Sign up to be a debate judge here by clicking the shift of your choice: https://mnudl.augsburg.edu/volunteer-opportunities/
This is an excellent opportunity for East African-focused community or student groups to fundraise! Please reach out to Melekh Akintola at akintola@augsburg.edu for more information about fundraising as a group.
(Concerned about transportation? No problem! Thanks to our AmeriCorps Volunteer Generation Fund, we can book you an Uber for free! Please sign up and email our Volunteer Coordinator, Johan at udlvolunteers@augsburg.edu for more information.)

Hello Augsburg students, faculty, and staff,
Over the next 4–5 years, Augsburg will be changing its primary information system (called Unit4 or formerly Agresso). This change will involve moving from our current campus-based Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system with numerous third-party systems to a unified, cloud-based ERP system.
This is a complex, multi-year, campus-wide project that involves how we manage student records, registration, human resources, finances, and more. Simply put, how you interact with Augsburg as a student or employee will be changing and improving once we have made the change. How you register for classes, record time worked and time off, submit grades for your courses, and so on—all will be modernized and, ideally, improved.
Such a change can be both exciting and daunting for people so we intend to support you in this transition with plenty of information, communication, and campus engagement as the project moves forward. The first steps will be to document business processes and engage key functional areas in preparation for campus visits by potential vendors this spring.
On the project web page https://sites.augsburg.edu/it/about-it/cloud-erp-project/ you’ll find information on project timeline, decision process, and project goals. That project page will grow and expand over time. If you have any questions about the project please feel free to reach out to me at any time.
– Scott Krajewski ’94, ’21 MBA

It is with mixed emotions that we announce that Charlotte Swanson, our Student Employment Specialist extraordinaire, has decided to embark on a new chapter. Charlotte’s official last day at Augsburg will be Friday December 6.
Charlotte joined Augsburg in January 2020, initially planning to support the Human Resources team for just a few months. Nearly five years later, her dedication, resourcefulness, and kindness have transformed our department and left a lasting mark on the university. From building and streamlining HR & student employment processes to offering compassionate guidance to countless Auggies and their supervisors, Charlotte has been a dependable and encouraging presence for everyone she’s worked with. Her ability to lead with care and enthusiasm (and a great playlist) has enriched the Human Resources team and the entire Augsburg community.
Charlotte’s impact will undoubtedly be felt for years to come, and her presence will be deeply missed. Please join us in celebrating her contributions and wishing her all the best for her next chapter.
We will celebrate Charlotte’s time at Augsburg with a farewell open house on Thursday, December 5th, from 1–3 PM in the Human Resources office (Memorial 20).

2025 Open Enrollment: November 11 – November 24, 2024
Open Enrollment is the only time of year when you may elect or change your benefits for the coming year, unless you experience a qualifying life event.
During open enrollment, no action means no coverage.
Employees who fail to act by November 24 will not have coverage effective January 1, 2025, and must wait until the next open enrollment period to elect coverage, unless a qualifying life event occurs.
Access the 2025 Enrollment Form: Inside Augsburg > Administrative Tasks > Open Enrollment
Every benefits-eligible employee must act by electing or declining health, dental or vision insurance coverages and a flexible spending or health savings account.
Your 2024 elections WILL NOT automatically carry over to 2025
Benefits-eligible employees are required to complete the online enrollment form for the 2025 elections even if you elect to waive your 2025 coverage.
Visit the HR website to view recorded information sessions: https://sites.augsburg.edu/hr/employees/benefits/open-enrollment/

The Minnesota Urban Debate League is a program of Augsburg University. We provide academic competitive debate programming to middle and high school students. Participating in debate helps Twin Cities students gain crucial academic skills like argumentation, public speaking, and critical thinking.
We are seeking volunteers to serve as debate judges for our Saturday MSHSL debate tournament. The topic of the debate is the implications of AI and intellectual property rights.
No previous debate experience is required! We’ll train you. Volunteers listen to students debate, weigh the arguments, pick a winner, and provide constructive written and verbal feedback to help students improve.
The tournament will take place in Blegen Hall at the University of Minnesota West Bank (right across the street from Augsburg University.) The volunteer shift will last from 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM. Judges will be provided a meal (Boca Chica) for participating. Plus, every hour you spend with us puts you in consideration for the MNUDL Volunteer of the Year Award!
Thanks to funding from the AmeriCorps Volunteer Generation Fund, we can provide Uber rides to individuals who need transportation to the tournament site. Let Johan at udlvolunteers@augsburg.edu know if you need assistance.

One of these initiatives was the requirement of Augsburg faculty and staff to complete the University’s Diversity and Inclusion Certificate Program and stay in good-standing every year following completion.

This year’s student-directed play “Tian” starts auditions today through tomorrow. Whether you are already experienced on stage, or want to dive into a new adventure – we are so excited to meet you. All necessary information, including our Instagram and the sign-up sheet, can be found here: https://linktr.ee/tianplay
Play Description: Who owns history? And who is allowed to tell its stories? The student-written piece Tian centers around these fundamental questions. This conflict becomes clear when the audience is led through the life of romantic poet Karoline von Günderrode by two characters with two very different claims to Karoline’s story: Bettine von Arnim, contemporary and close friend of Karoline, who wants to paint a strong, feminist picture; and the Playwright whose goal is to create an enticing, heart wrenching play. The audience finds themselves in the in-betweens of history, whilst being part of Karoline’s personal journey filled with struggles, doubt, and dreams.
