Members of the Augsburg Community,
You are invited to participate in a study focusing on the mental health impact of Operation Metro Surge, in which the Department of Homeland Security sent approximately 3000 ICE and Border Control agents to the Twin Cities beginning in December 2025 and officially lasting through mid-February of 2026.
Prof. James Vela-McConnell, in the Department of Sociology here at Augsburg, is conducting an anonymous survey that is intended to further document the impact of this event on our community and ourselves and you are invited to participate. This online survey should take approximately 30 minutes and can be completed at your convenience. At the end of the survey, you will have the opportunity to enter a raffle for one of six $50 gift cards or one of eight $25 gift. Alternatively, the raffle winners may choose to donate the value of their gift card to a local organization working to support immigrant residents of the Twin Cities metro.
To take the survey, check your emails for your invitation to participate or simply click on the link below for the flyer with the link & QR code.
Also, we are hoping to include as many residents of the Twin Cities area as possible in this research on the mental health impact of Operation Metro Surge. Please feel free forward the flyer and invite your local family, friends, neighbors, etc. to participate. In addition to the entire Augsburg community, anyone who lives and/or works in the Twin Cities metro region and is 18 years of age or older may participate.
Thank you in advance for your participation.

On May 12 we will be moving from passwords to passphrases for the campus. You are not required to do anything at that time. But on or after May 12 when you change your password the new rules will apply. For most of our “average” folks, who do not have access to institutional data for their job, once you change to a passphrase you will not need to change it again. For more details read our Passphrase FAQ. https://sites.augsburg.edu/it/get-help/passphrases-faq/

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.
One weeks after the spring semester ends (on May 15, 2025) we will close all student campus boxes unless you 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 the form
(https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeA6NyaiFZI2pFW_1SD6hEHCflfjaZ00b1ZRyzbqLNKp78SXA/viewform?usp=header).
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.

Many campus email accounts received a “Gadgets & Musical Items Donation” scam email last Friday night. Thank you to the many people who notified us about the scam — good scam-sense! On Friday night we initiated our security response protocol on any Augsburg email accounts that were compromised and were sending the scam emails.
Here’s some red flags I saw in the scam email
– It is not the type of thing we regularly do here. Amail provides a means to sell things.
– It directs you to NOT reply to the email but instead text a number.
– The deal sounds too good to be true.

The Cedar Riverside Youth Council voted on a resolution to start a petition to raise support to restore and improve the Brian Coyle Gym, which is the heart of the community.
Equipment over the last 15 years has either been removed and not replaced, is broken, and the gym has been left to fall apart because there was always a new recreation center on the horizon. The community can’t wait another minute and continue to let this deterioration continue. The youth and families deserve better.
The CR Youth Council has made these visuals to show what could be possible with $100,000 worth of funding. These improvements would last until some day in the distant future when the new recreation center is built. Everything in the design could be moved to the new facility with minimal costs.
Here is the petition: https://sign.moveon.org/petitions/restore-upgrade-the-brian-coyle-center-gym

The 29th Pedagogy & Theatre of the Oppressed conference will be here at Augsburg this summer! Join us July 23-26 for a deeply participatory conference where we lean into inquiry, dialogue, and creative expression as ways to challenge the forces of domination, share learning and knowledge, and to create change! Artists, activists, organizers, educators and anyone working to dismantle oppression, this is for you!
“My voice is in tune with a different language, another kind of music. It speaks of resistance, indignation, the just anger of those who are deceived and betrayed. It speaks, too, of their right to rebel against the ethical transgressions of which they are the long-suffering victims.” –Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of Freedom: Ethics, Democracy, and Civic Courage
In a time when public education, democracy, community organizing, the arts, and critical pedagogy face extraordinary threats, this year’s conference invites educators, activists, artists, and community members to gather in solidarity. We recognize the ashes of programs dismantled, communities marginalized, and voices silenced. Yet, in these ashes, we also see the seeds of resistance and the songs of transformation. Across the world, oppressions continue to intensify on many fronts, but people continue to build mass struggles to survive and even (when at all possible) thrive.
This gathering provides opportunities for people to share and expand on their methods to create participatory justice in spite of our current material, economic, and political conditions. And we will sing songs that ask us to transform our current moments of despair, anger, and fear into practices of radical hope, love, and joy–joy is resistance! Join us if you can!

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.
One weeks after the spring semester ends (on May 15, 2025) we will close all student campus boxes unless you 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 the form
(https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeA6NyaiFZI2pFW_1SD6hEHCflfjaZ00b1ZRyzbqLNKp78SXA/viewform?usp=header).
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.

During this four-day period, please take note of the following changes to our service:
Office Hours: Walk-in office hours are suspended. The HR office will be closed to visitors.
Phone Calls: Our phone lines will be directed to voicemail. We will not be available for calls during this time.

Did you know Augsburg is home to a community garden with 65 individual plots for neighbors and 3 student-led communal plots? Does this intrigue you? Does environmental stewardship and radical inclusivity inspire you? Are you interested in learning more or participating? Then you should join the garden committee!!
We are currently looking for students, staff, faculty and community members to be a part of the garden committee to share inspiration, ideas and help make decisions that will shape the future of the garden. We meet once a month for about an hour and a half. For more information, please email Greta at klawiter@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.
One weeks after the spring semester ends (on May 15, 2025) we will close all student campus boxes unless you 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 the form
(https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeA6NyaiFZI2pFW_1SD6hEHCflfjaZ00b1ZRyzbqLNKp78SXA/viewform?usp=header).
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.

Members of the Augsburg Community,
You are invited to participate in a study focusing on the mental health impact of Operation Metro Surge, in which the Department of Homeland Security sent approximately 3000 ICE and Border Control agents to the Twin Cities beginning in December 2025 and officially lasting through mid-February of 2026.
Prof. James Vela-McConnell, in the Department of Sociology here at Augsburg, is conducting an anonymous survey that is intended to further document the impact of this event on our community and ourselves and you are invited to participate. This online survey should take approximately 30 minutes and can be completed at your convenience. At the end of the survey, you will have the opportunity to enter a raffle for one of six $50 gift cards or one of eight $25 gift. Alternatively, the raffle winners may choose to donate the value of their gift card to a local organization working to support immigrant residents of the Twin Cities metro.
To take the survey, check your emails for your invitation to participate or simply click on the link below for the flyer with the link & QR code.
Also, we are hoping to include as many residents of the Twin Cities area as possible in this research on the mental health impact of Operation Metro Surge. Please feel free forward the flyer and invite your local family, friends, neighbors, etc. to participate. In addition to the entire Augsburg community, anyone who lives and/or works in the Twin Cities metro region and is 18 years of age or older may participate.
Thank you in advance for your participation.
