Scholarly Writing Retreat

Dunrovin Retreat Center, May 16-18, 2011

The Center for Teaching and Learning invites faculty to participate in the second annual Scholarly Writing Retreat at Dunrovin. The retreat gives scholars time and space to work on scholarship, undistracted by meetings, classes, or even children and family responsibilities. Last year, many participants came specifically to plan an approach to a new project; it was an opportunity to focus new ideas so that participants could spend the summer further developing these projects. And for some, it was a chance to finish articles that they had been working on during the year; one person, for example, used the time to complete a piece for publication.

Comments from last year's attendees:

"I can honestly say that I was able to get more quality writing done in the 48 hrs. we were there than any time since my sabbatical."
"The group that went to Dunrovin was wonderfully supportive of each other, and the environment seemed to make everyone's work productive."

The retreat will take place Monday, May 16 at 10 am through Wednesday, May 18 at 3pm. There are 15 openings. First come, first served - those who attended last year are welcome to sign up again. There will be no charge for participants. Please email hedstrom@augsburg.edu to sign up.

Update on Study Abroad in Egypt

Given quickly changing events in Egypt, the Office of International Programs staff, including Augsburg Abroad, wanted to update the campus community on our plans for the faculty-led program set to depart for Egypt in May (led by Professors Phil Adamo and Mohamed Sallam). Our office has been monitoring the situation carefully and wants to assure everyone that the safety and security of students and faculty studying abroad is our office's highest priority.

The U.S. State Department issued an updated Travel Warning on February 18, 2011, to provide citizens with information on the changing security situation in Egypt. They recommend that U.S. citizens avoid travel to Egypt due to ongoing political and social unrest, and suggest that U.S. citizens currently in Egypt consider leaving as soon as they can safely do so. See the full text of the Travel Warning at: http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/tw/tw_5347.html

The situation in Egypt is changing on a daily, even hourly basis and there is no way to determine how long unrest will continue or what the result will be. Since the faculty-led group isn't set to depart for Egypt for several months, we continue to monitor State Department recommendations in relationship to our program plans.
If the Travel Warning remains in place on April 4, the program will be cancelled. If the Travel Warning has been lifted by April 4, staff in our office will utilize other sources of information including our local travel provider, other local sources, international media, and the US State Department to determine if the program will be canceled or continue as planned. We will not hesitate to change or cancel part or all of the program, if needed, to secure the safety and security of students and faculty.

In the event that our office cancels the program, students who have applied and been accepted will not be held financially responsible for any cancellation costs, and will be offered the opportunity to participate in other Augsburg summer study abroad programs. Any students interested in exploring other study abroad options should contact the Augsburg Abroad office at abroad@augsburg.edu .
