The Great Minnesota Get-Together
It's that time again! Would you like to talk with alumni, friends, and prospective Auggies for four hours at the Augsburg booth at the Minnesota State Fair? The dates this year are August 21-September 1. The shifts are 9-1, 1-5 and 5-9 each day; two people are needed at each shift, so feel free to ask a colleague, a student, or an alum to share your shift and, if at all possible, we'll make it happen (some shifts are already taken!). Contact me at ext. 1525 or at herron@augsburg.edu and let me know when you'd like to represent Augsburg... a ticket to the fair and training is provided!
