This faculty development workshop will offer insight on the purpose of review, pragmatic advice about the process, interpretation of the expectations by level of review, ideas and examples for writing a personal statement and building a portfolio, and an opportunity to network with other faculty preparing for reviews. Bring your questions and come prepared to participate actively in reflection and discussion about our work as faculty at Augsburg.

Fall Major/Career Exploration Weeks Coming in 2015
Get involved! New pilot program coming for Fall 2015: Fall Major/Career Exploration Weeks
To better support students in exploring options for majors and careers, Career & Internship Services is partnering with URGO to plan a new five-week program series for fall 2015 - and we hope you will be involved! (Details: http://www.augsburg.edu/strommen/calendar/fall-majorcareer-exploration-series/)
The program is designed to help students explore majors and careers by disciplines in alignment with our academic divisions, plus a week focused on pre-health and one designed to meet the needs of undecided students or those still exploring majors or careers.
During each of the five weeks Career & Internship Services and/or URGO will host a panel discussion featuring a mix of alumni, employers, faculty, and other experts linked to the majors and disciplines featured that week.
In addition, faculty, staff and students are invited to plan additional offerings during the weeks that most closely align to their major, department, or organization mission/focus (see list of dates below and online). Career & Internship Services will promote the full slate of offerings to students, provided information is received by our deadline.
The Fall 2015 weeks are scheduled as follows:
Week of Sept. 21: Professional Studies
Week of Sept. 28: Fine Arts & Humanities
Week of Oct. 5: Natural & Social Sciences
Week of Oct. 12: Pre-Health Week
Week of Oct. 19: Undecided/Exploratory Student Week

Get Target Gift Card for Participating in Research
Hello, my name is Michael Kantor and I am an Undergraduate Exercise Science student at Augsburg College. I am writing to invite you to be a participant in my study: Physical Activity Levels and Motivation in Urban Midwest College students, faculty, and staff. This research is funded by URGO Summer Research Program and the Northland Chapter of the American College of Sports Medicine Student Research Grant. Dr. Ana Ribeiro, Assistant Professor of Health, Physical Education and Exercise Science will be mentoring me during this project.
If you agree to participate in this study, you will be asked to fill out a short anonymous one-time survey about physical activity participation and motivation. You will also have the option to participate in an additional in-person fitness assessment that requires a 30 minute visit to Kennedy Center 309. You will be compensated upon completion of the survey with a $5 Target gift card and upon completion of optional fitness assessment, another $5 Target gift card.
If you are interested, check Augsburg email inbox in the coming weeks for the questionnaires and optional fitness assessment. Thank you for taking the time to consider the participation. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me at kantor@augsburg.edu, or my mentor Ana Ribeiro at ribeiro@augsburg.edu.
