New ICE Guidelines: Augsburg Supporting our International Students
submitted by hermansb@augsburg.edu
International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) is aware of the SEVP/ICE Announcement released Monday, July 6, regarding restrictions on online course delivery for international students on F-1 visas. We knew there was a real possibility that SEVP/ICE would revert to its standard online course delivery restrictions. And that is unfortunately what happened.
It’s important to note that Augsburg University does not plan to teach fully online/remote in the fall. We will have courses available in several hybrid models that include face-to-face instruction, as well as some fully in-person courses that should keep our international students in compliance.
Now that we have the official announcement—as well as the university’s course delivery plans—we, together with the Deans, Registrar, and Advising, will seek to develop course delivery options for all international students, undergraduate and graduate.
Individualized approaches will be sought as we look at each international student’s degree plan and course registration. These plans will look different for those who are currently in the U.S. versus those who are currently in their home countries.
All of our international students have been informed in more detail, but we want the broader campus community to be aware of these considerations as well.
President Pribbenow has joined the Presidents’ Alliance on Higher Education and Immigration amicus brief in support of the Harvard/MIT lawsuit challenging the lCE SEVP guidance.
Two of our international students, Daniil Gerasimov (Russia) and Jonas Bergmann Poulsen (Denmark) have been approached by the media (Kare 11 News and MSNBC), and will share their voices on how these regulations will impact them as well as our international community. Links will be shared when available.
Bettine Hoff Hermanson and the ISSS team are available to support our students and answer questions ( hermansb@augsburg.edu).

The Moodle “Lesson” and Online Quizzing “Tech Tune-ups and Tips” TODAY at 10 a.m.
submitted by maherk@augsburg.edu
The Moodle “Lesson” & Online Quizzing: Too often online content can be “text-heavy” and yawn-inducing. The first 15 minutes will focus on the Moodle “Lesson,” a graded activity used to build structured pathways through various learning materials (text, images, videos) while testing students’ comprehension. Auto-graded quizzes are also an effective way to engage students and confirm their understanding of online content. The rest of the hour will address how to create a quiz–specifically–how to create a syllabus quiz and methods for ensuring academic integrity.

When: June 18, 2020 11:00 am – 12:00 pm CST
Level: Introductory
Track: Social Responsibility
Presenter: Jessie Wusthoff, Clover Health
While many companies understand the need to implement legal components related to disability in the workplace, few are confident in approaching the human side of these conversations on disability.
During this webinar, we will introduce different social models around disability and understand how they show up in daily work life. We’ll focus on creating a safe space to understand how these models impact our personal points of view and begin to explore better ways of framing conversations around disability in the workplace.

More than Meets the Eye: A New Direction for Conversations on Disability
submitted by gocmen@augsburg.edu
When: June 18, 2020 11:00 am – 12:00 pm CST
Level: Introductory
Track: Social Responsibility
Presenter: Jessie Wusthoff, Clover Health
While many companies understand the need to implement legal components related to disability in the workplace, few are confident in approaching the human side of these conversations on disability.
During this webinar, we will introduce different social models around disability and understand how they show up in daily work life. We’ll focus on creating a safe space to understand how these models impact our personal points of view and begin to explore better ways of framing conversations around disability in the workplace.
