Chair Options for the Commons Renovation

Please go the NE corner of the main dining area of the Commons to view eight options of chairs. You'll see four tall chairs, along with the likely choice for high table. Also, there are four short chairs to go with the lower tables, which will match the base and top of the high table. Attached to the table you will see the proposed layout for the cafeteria area.

Each chair is marked on its tag. A-D for tall chairs, and 1-4 for short chairs. Please email your choices for favorite/most comfortable tall and short chair to Kristin Hansen, Assistant to the Vice Presidents, at hansenk1@augsburg.edu.

The samples will be available for view until the end of the day on Monday, June 10th. The chosen chairs will be announced on Inside Augsburg by the end of the June, and the new tables and chairs will be in place by the start of the fall semester.

Thanks for your help!

Trans Cultural Competence in Health Care

Hello,
My name is Emerson Ball and I am an undergraduate student conducting research through the Undergraduate Research and Graduate Opportunity grant program at Augsburg College with the mentorship of Alex Iantaffi, Assistant Professor at University of Minnesota. I am conducting several focus groups on the cultural competence of current and aspiring health care providers in working with transgender patients as well as the experiences of transgender individuals within health care. Please see the request below and pass along, thank you for your consideration.
Best,
Emerson

Transgender identified individuals:
I am currently conducting a study regarding current and aspiring health care providers' cultural competence in working with transgender patients and the successes and gaps within that.
You may be eligible to participate if: you are eighteen years or older, you live in the United States or its territories, and you identify as transgender.
If you are interested in participating, you will be asked to participate in a focus group discussing your experiences in your care received from health care providers as well as your personal definitions of cultural competence. It will take approximately 90 minutes, one time only on June 13th, 5 p.m.-6:30 p.m. on the 2nd floor of Christiansen in the Cedar room at Augsburg College.
If you are interested, please respond to transhealthcarestudy@gmail.com or call Emerson Ball at (612) 626-3601 for further information.
Refreshments will be provided during the focus group.
This study, protocol number 2013-37-3, has been approved by Augsburg College's Institutional Review Board. If you have any concerns about your rights as a participant please email irb@augsburg.edu.

Thank you for your consideration,

Emerson Ball
