Inside Augsburg

If students or colleagues will need access to your office, lab, etc. over the break, and they do not have a key, you need to e-mail an access list to the Department of Public Safety. We do not accept access authorization over the phone. Please e-mail your access request to John Pack or Janine Borchardt before 4 p.m. on Friday, December 19th. We will not admit students or colleagues to your workspace unless you have e-mailed us an access list. If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to give me a call.

Openings and Closings on Campus Dec. 22 - Jan. 1

Submitted by John Pack, Director, Public Safety

Note: The Library and Athletics have published operating schedules. Those facilities will open and close according to their published schedules.

1 - Buildings will be unlocked each weekday morning at their normal time. Buildings will remain closed on holidays (12/24, 12/25, 1/1/) and weekends UNLESS there is a scheduled activity or office that needs the building open.

2 - Buildings will close at 5 p.m. UNLESS there is a scheduled activity or office that needs the building open later. HOWEVER, officers will be making regular rounds through buildings. When they find a building is empty, they will lock it up. If you leave for the day and believe your building will be empty, please call x1717 and let us know.

3 - Conference rooms, classrooms and labs will remain locked UNLESS there is a scheduled activity or office that needs the space.

4 - If the space you need is locked, and you have a legitimate reason to be in there, please call x1717 and an officer will do their best to assist you. Please have photo ID and show it to the officer. Some officers will be working different shifts over the break and may not have had the opportunity to meet you.

5 - Whenever possible, don’t work alone. Ideally, there should always be two or more people in your area. If you are working alone, I encourage you to call x1717 and let us know. We will have officers walk by your area more frequently.

6 - If you see anything suspicious, please call x1717 immediately!
