Don’t Forget Your Mail
submitted by longj@augsburg.edu
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).
There is also an option to keep your current campus box number for the next semester if you will be returning in the fall.
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.
Summer Campus boxes will close early August (on August 8, 2025) to give time to reset for the fall semester.

Passing of OPEIU Local 12 Rep. Molly Thul
submitted by rodriguc@augsburg.edu
From OPEIU Local 12:
“Dear Local 12 members,
We are devastated to share the shocking news that our beloved staff member Molly Thul unexpectedly passed away this week. Molly was the most senior employee at Local 12, and played a critical role in working with membership to transform our local from a sleepy, passive organization to a deliberate, organized, fighting union.
Molly grew up in Burnsville and began working in foodservice at MSP airport as a teenager. Over the decades at MSP she became a committed union activist with UNITE HERE Local 17, serving as a steward and campaigning to bring in a new generation of leadership at Local 17. She later became a staff rep for Local 17, and OPEIU Local 12 hired her in 2020. Molly began at OPEIU the week COVID shutdowns began, and handled that unexpected situation with professional aplomb, along with many other difficult surprises that arose over the years.
Molly leaves behind a teenage son and daughter, and is also survived by her father and two brothers, along with many other loving friends and family members. Local 12 will provide information about services or memorials once they are announced by the family.
If your unit has been represented by Molly, please email eboard@opeiu12.org for now with any questions or issues regarding representation or bargaining. Local 12 will work with OPEIU International to best determine next steps for these groups. Local 12 is a small organization with only 3 full-time staff members so things may be a bit chaotic or slow for the next few weeks as we sort everything out.
Sending everyone the best in love and solidarity,
Your OPEIU Local 12 Executive Board and Staff”
Feel free to also reach out to Augsburg Staff Union Team if you have any questions.

Augsburg community members can help college students here and statewide by asking your legislators to save the Minnesota State Grant program. There’s a large ($240 million) shortfall in funding for next fall that will lead to grants being cut or eliminated if the state doesn’t act soon.

With budgeting decisions getting made now, reach out soon, no later than March 28.

Somatic Coaching: Practice Client Needed
submitted by rohlfsen@augsburg.edu
Hi All, Nichole here (Program Manager for Customized Programs at the Center for Global Education & Experience/CGEE). I’m currently enrolled in the Strozzi Institute’s Somatic Coaching Certification Program and am finishing the program in May. I am looking for one more practice client to add towards the minimum hours of coaching needed to complete my program. If you are interested, please email me at rohlfsen@augsburg.edu to talk more in detail. I’m including some information here below as well.
What is Somatic Coaching?
Somatic coaching is similar to other forms of coaching in that it tends to focus on the present and future (rather than the past like therapy or counseling), and supports clients to envision and then craft the lives they want to live, as well as to help identify what might be getting in the way of living their life more fully. However, somatic coaching integrates a key component of self that most coaching does not address or integrate: the body.
Working with the body as an integral part of self, as well as thoughts, emotions, and spirit, allows for a deeper awareness and intelligence, and creates the possibility of sustainable and lasting change. What shows up when we are under pressure (i.e., stress, getting a new job, falling in love, losing a loved one, etc.) is what is embodied—that is to say what already lives in our tissues and was typically shaped in us at a very young age. While the way our bodies reacted and learned how to cope at that young age were very wise and necessary, these tendencies continue to show up in our lives under pressure often at the expense of what we really long for and care about. Working with and through the body in somatic coaching is a more effective and efficient way of transforming our lives and being able to have more of the embodied skills needed to show up how we really want and need to in order to create lives rich in fulfillment, connection, play, resilience, and love.
