Augsburg University Moving to Virtual Classes and Operations Monday, March 25, 2024

Augsburg University is moving classes to a remote format on Monday, March 25, 2024 and most operations will be virtual due to weather conditions.

Students, please watch for communications from your instructors with more specific information or consult your course Moodle site for more details. Essential employees are advised to contact their supervisors with any questions. Examples of essential services may include security, facilities, residential, and food service operations. 

For information on specific campus facilities, services and events, see Campus Facilities, Services, and Events Weather Updates.

All-Clear Issued at University of Minnesota: January 11, 2024

At 1:00 p.m. on January 11, the University of Minnesota announced that the Chippewa County Sheriff had located the suspect in the threat to the Twin Cities campus and had him contained. With this news, the U issued an all-clear message and returned to normal campus operations. Augsburg operations are also returning to normal at this time. Employees who moved to remote work on January 11 should coordinate with supervisors and colleagues about when to return to their normal work site.

Safety Precautions Related to Threat to University of Minnesota Campus: January 11, 2024

The University of Minnesota—Twin Cities received a threat of gun violence the morning of January 11 and advised all non-essential employees to work from home today as a precaution. While we have received no threats against the Augsburg campus or any member of the Augsburg community related to this situation, Augsburg employees and student workers are advised to consult with their supervisors and make arrangements to work remotely on January 11, where possible, and adjust unit operations as necessary. We encourage all members of our community to take appropriate safety precautions as this situation unfolds. 

Winter Break and Spring ’24 Parking Permits

Hello Auggies,

DPS hopes everyone is having a stress free and successful finals week. We just wanted to announce the parking plans for both winter break and spring semester. If you have already bought a full year permit, you can disregard this message as it doesn’t apply to you.

Winter Break

On December 16, all fall semester passes will expire. If you plan on staying over winter break, you can purchase a winter break permit for $50 through the Inside Augsburg Parking Services tab on December 16. Even first-year resident students will be able to purchase this permit for winter break. The pass will expire on January 15, 2024. 

Spring Semester

Next week Monday (December 18), passes for the Spring 2024 semester will go on sale. Those can be purchased through the Augsburg Parking Services tab. Please note: this will be the first semester that we will no longer be using physical hang tags.

Underground Passes

If you previously purchased a Fall Underground pass, expect an email from DPS asking if you’d like to re-up for Spring Semester. If you were put on the waiting list, you’ll also be receiving an email about how to purchase an underground pass. If we have any additional passes left over in either underground garages, we will announce via email.

Vehicle Registration

The entire DPS team wants to thank everyone for their cooperation and feedback with our new virtual permit system. As always, please make sure that you accurately register your vehicle(s). Even if you’re off by one number or letter, you can be ticketed by the cameras. Additionally, we’d like to remind everyone that if you drive more than one vehicle or get a new license plate, you MUST register these vehicles to your parking account. The LPRs (License Plate Reader cameras) won’t recognize another vehicle you drive if you haven’t registered it, regardless of whether you bought a permit or not.

Any questions, please feel free to email parking@augsburg.edu.
