Winter Parking Information
When a significant amount of snow falls, the city of Minneapolis declares a Snow Emergency to remove accumulating snow from the full width of city streets. If you are parked on a city street and do not follow the snow emergency rules, your vehicle will be ticketed and towed by the city.
If you park on city streets, please visit the city of Minneapolis snow emergency web site. Here you will find the snow emergency parking rules along with an interactive map showing where you can park and when. The snow emergency parking page is:
http://www.ci.minneapolis.mn.us/snow/index.htm
It is NOT Augsburg's responsibility to notify you of snow emergencies on city streets. If the city tows your car, it will cost you several hundred dollars to get it back. If you park on city streets, I strongly recommend that you subscribe to e-mail/SMS and phone notification of snow emergencies. The following links will take you directly to those services:
To receive an e-mail of SMS message when a snow emergency is declared:
http://www.ci.minneapolis.mn.us/snow/snow_stay-informed
If you have an Augsburg parking permit and are properly parked in one of our lots, our maintenance crews will do their best to plow around your car. If we need you to move your vehicle, we can look you up by your license plate if it is registered in parking services. If need be, you can check out a shovel with your student or employee ID card at the DPS desk in the Urness/Mortenson lobby.
Day (temporary) parking passes for Augsburg lots are available for $5 through Augnet's Parking Services. Passes are limited.
BICYCLES:
Bicycles must be parked and locked in approved bicycle racks on campus. Bicycles parked along fences or other unapproved areas may be damaged during snow plowing or may be removed by Public Safety to allow for plowing.
Those who do not plan to ride during the winter months are encouraged to store their bicycles at their homes if possible. Thanksgiving break is a good time to load it up and take it home.
Augsburg Alerts: Emergency Notification
Augsburg Alerts is the Augsburg Emergency Notification system allowing Auggies to receive test messages, emails, or phone calls with information regarding active campus emergencies. The alerts system is not used for enrollment deadlines, sporting events, etc. It is used only for active and on-going emergencies such as weather emergencies, school closings, fire, gas leak, active shooter etc.

Jeroy '48 and Lorraine Carlson Sponsor CSBR Office
The name says it all in terms of dedication to the College: "Mr. Augsburg." That is the nickname for Jeroy Carlson '48, a man who worked for Augsburg for 44 years in alumni relations and development, retiring in 2007 after raising millions of dollars for the College.
Jeroy's wife, Lorraine "Ainy," a Winona State Teachers College graduate, worked for Augsburg for 20 years in the financial aid office from 1969 to 89. Today she volunteers with the Augsburg Associates.
The Carlsons' son Jonathan '79, daughter Liz '82, their granddaughter Andrea (Carlson) '05 and her husband, Riley '05, Conway all are Auggies.
Jeroy and Ainy have demonstrated their love for Augsburg through decades of work undergirded by their financial gifts. Recently they committed $25,000 to sponsor a physics faculty office in the Center for Science, Business, and Religion.
