Holistic Wellness Survey
submitted by millerk4@augsburg.edu
Hello Everyone,
This year the CWC created the Mental Health Task force. Augsburg Day Student Government works on this committee to ensure that student needs are being advocated for in each meeting and in each wellness motion made in the committee.
The first major thing that we would like to do is get feedback from as many students as possible on the current state of wellness on campus. Below I have linked a survey that we created to gather the information that we would like.
The survey is a little lengthy but should take only a few minutes and it will be completely anonymous. Your feedback is vital to understanding a more diverse perspective on Augsburg wellness.
If you have any questions on the survey or issues accessing you can reach out to Kalista Miller the ADSG representative at millerk4@augsburg.edu

Seniors, Academic Advisors, and Strommen Center Staff: Please Participate in This Sociology Survey
submitted by simmonst@augsburg.edu
My name is Tori Simmons, and I’m an Urban Studies Senior. My research project attempts to understand how support services provided by Augsburg University benefit seniors as they prepare for their lives after graduation. The research question seeks an answer to the definition of success, from the perspective of students and the staff that are supporting them. This research justifies the entry level positions that college graduates should be able to attain based on the skills that employers, from my research, are saying that graduates do not have.
There’s a gap between graduate employability and career preparedness. This research will help locate where that gap lies, in an attempt to bridge it, and better prepare Augsburg seniors for employment upon graduation. Previous research studies have evaluated student success from the perspective of students and their relationships with their advisors. Studies have also sought employers to know what they are looking for when hiring for entry level positions at their organization. This research will apply the skills that employers are looking for and evaluate if Augsburg students are employable.
Participants will be asked to read a document of consent to participate and answer up to 22 questions if they are a student or 14 questions if they are a student support service staff member.
Participants will not receive direct benefits because there aren’t any incentives, but they will receive indirect benefits, such as, improving student success and the betterment of student support services at Augsburg University. The potential risks for participating in this study are that it may challenge participants to think deeply about their experiences and may awaken passionate feelings from answering questions pertaining to their experiences.
If you’re interested in participating, then click on the link in the description box below, or email my professor James A Vela-McConnel, Ph.D. at (velamcco@augsburg.edu) with questions.

Kalista Miller and Salma Caamir
Seniors, Academic Advisors, and Strommen Center Staff: Please Participate in This Sociology Survey
submitted by simmonst@augsburg.edu
My name is Tori Simmons, and I’m an Urban Studies Senior. My research project attempts to understand how support services provided by Augsburg University benefit seniors as they prepare for their lives after graduation. The research question seeks an answer to the definition of success, from the perspective of students and the staff that are supporting them. This research justifies the entry level positions that college graduates should be able to attain based on the skills that employers, from my research, are saying that graduates do not have.
There’s a gap between graduate employability and career preparedness. This research will help locate where that gap lies, in an attempt to bridge it, and better prepare Augsburg seniors for employment upon graduation. Previous research studies have evaluated student success from the perspective of students and their relationships with their advisors. Studies have also sought employers to know what they are looking for when hiring for entry level positions at their organization. This research will apply the skills that employers are looking for and evaluate if Augsburg students are employable.
Participants will be asked to read a document of consent to participate and answer up to 22 questions if they are a student or 14 questions if they are a student support service staff member.
Participants will not receive direct benefits because there aren’t any incentives, but they will receive indirect benefits, such as, improving student success and the betterment of student support services at Augsburg University. The potential risks for participating in this study are that it may challenge participants to think deeply about their experiences and may awaken passionate feelings from answering questions pertaining to their experiences.
If you’re interested in participating, then click on the link in the description box below, or email my professor James A Vela-McConnel, Ph.D. at (velamcco@augsburg.edu) with questions.

Finally, we will check in one last time 3-months after the study is over for a brief online survey.
Participants will receive up to $35 for their participation. $5 for each of the first three sessions, and $10 for both the fourth session and the 3 month follow-up. Alternatively, Augsburg University Psychology students will receive up to $25 and 4 research credits.

Mental Health Resource Survey
submitted by millerk4@augsburg.edu
Hello Everyone,
This year the CWC created the Mental Health Task force. Augsburg Day Student Government works on this committee to ensure that student needs are being advocated for in each meeting and in each wellness motion made in the committee.
The first major thing that we would like to do is get feedback from as many students as possible on the current state of wellness on campus. Below I have linked a survey that we created to gather the information that we would like.
The survey is a little lengthy but should take only a few minutes and it will be completely anonymous. Your feedback is vital to understanding a more diverse perspective on Augsburg wellness.
If you have any questions on the survey or issues accessing you can reach out to Kalista Miller the ADSG representative at millerk4@augsburg.edu

Seniors, Academic Advisors, and Strommen Center Staff, Please Participate in This Sociology Survey
submitted by simmonst@augsburg.edu
My name is Tori Simmons, and I’m an Urban Studies Senior. My research project attempts to understand how support services provided by Augsburg University benefit seniors as they prepare for their lives after graduation. The research question seeks an answer to the definition of success, from the perspective of students and the staff that are supporting them. This research justifies the entry level positions that college graduates should be able to attain based on the skills that employers, from my research, are saying that graduates do not have.
There’s a gap between graduate employability and career preparedness. This research will help locate where that gap lies, in an attempt to bridge it, and better prepare Augsburg seniors for employment upon graduation. Previous research studies have evaluated student success from the perspective of students and their relationships with their advisors. Studies have also sought employers to know what they are looking for when hiring for entry level positions at their organization. This research will apply the skills that employers are looking for and evaluate if Augsburg students are employable.
Participants will be asked to read a document of consent to participate and answer up to 22 questions if they are a student or 14 questions if they are a student support service staff member.
Participants will not receive direct benefits because there aren’t any incentives, but they will receive indirect benefits, such as, improving student success and the betterment of student support services at Augsburg University. The potential risks for participating in this study are that it may challenge participants to think deeply about their experiences and may awaken passionate feelings from answering questions pertaining to their experiences.
If you’re interested in participating, then click on the link in the description box below, or email my professor James A Vela-McConnel, Ph.D. at (velamcco@augsburg.edu) with questions.

Campus Network Outage and IT Status Page
submitted by krajewsk@augsburg.edu
The unplanned outage affecting all campus-based services on 3/14/2023 should be resolved by the time you’re reading this. Our teams started assessing the issue as soon as it happened at 4:41PM yesterday and worked into the night to restore campus services.
This outage is a good reminder that we maintain a status page linked off our IT website ( https://sites.augsburg.edu/it/ ). Both of these websites are hosted off-campus as are the majority of our websites. You can visit the status page directly at IT Status Page and see the status of any unplanned service interruptions and what future maintenance is planned that impacts services. You can also subscribe to notifications (email or SMS) for different services (moodle, Records & Registration, printing, etc.).
We apologize for the disruption last night. We continue to monitor things throughout Wednesday to ensure services are fully functional.
Website Page Reorder
submitted by singhj@augsburg.edu
Hello! A few folks have spoken to me about the website page reorder function being broken. The plug in is out of date and therefore has been made inactive from our environments (Augsburg.edu and inside.augsburg.edu). There are other ways to arrange pages and reorder – if you need help please do not hesitate to reach out and schedule some time with me.

Support East Phillips and Little Earth in Their Fight to Defend the Depot
submitted by gilmerje@augsburg.edu
Support East Phillips and Little Earth in their fight to Defend the Depot!
In The South Minneapolis neighborhood of East Phillips, on Dakota territory, there is a building known as the “Roof Depot.” Community members, and especially those living at the Little Earth housing complex, want to turn it into a community center and indoor farm, with rooftop solar. The city of Minneapolis wants to demolish it, to build a highly polluting truck yard and diesel fueling station.
A court has issued a 2-week injunction (temporary restraining order) against the demolition, which was scheduled to begin on February 28th. Residents from Little Earth and East Phillips successfully testified at the Economic Development Finance and Policy Committee on March 2nd. This brings them one step closer to community-owned green infrastructure in a neighborhood that has long been heavily polluted and underfunded by the city. Residents are seeking $100 million in state funding to buy the Roof Depot site from the city, and make a meaningful investment in the neighborhood.
The bill moves to the Capital Investment committee next, where they will advocate for funding to be increased from $20 to $100 million. Then the bill needs to pass the House and Senate. There are many steps to take before we can secure this funding, so stay tuned for how to support and keep up the pressure, visit their website and follow them on Instagram @eastphillipsurbanfarm and @defendthedepot for updates!

Mapping Prejudice Seeks Volunteers to Map Restrictive Racial Covenants in Property Deeds
submitted by gilmerje@augsburg.edu
Mapping Prejudice identifies and maps racial covenants, clauses that were inserted into property deeds to keep people who were not White from buying or occupying homes. From their base in the University of Minnesota Libraries, they collaborate with community members to expose the history of structural racism and support the work of reparations. Mapping Prejudice uses crowdsourcing to transcribe racial covenants in property deeds. After completing work in Hennepin and Ramsey counties, they are now helping Milwaukee and other cities create databases that track racial injustice. Join their community researchers who are learning together to document this hidden history.

Community Garden Winter Reflections from Gardener Ed
submitted by mcdaniem@augsburg.edu
As our Minnesota winter drags on expectedly, many of us are impatiently awaiting spring and warmer weather. As the days get longer, I know garden season is approaching, but the season always arrives unexpectedly even if I have been anticipating green shoots and the smell of fresh soil for months.
This week, Augsburg community gardener, Edward Sheehy, was also feeling the anticipation of spring so he took a visit to the garden plot he stewards on campus. He shared these words and image with me and has given his blessing for me to pass them along to the broader Augsburg community. I hope they give you pause, like they did for me, with a reminder to slow down, take in your surroundings, and live in the moment, even when that moment is still covered in snow. Good things are happening. This is what I love about the community created around the garden; gardeners share so much of themselves with us and one another. Enjoy.
