Hello Students,

My name is Diamonique Walker. I am a senior studying psychology at Augsburg. This summer, as a part of my McNair Research project, I am collecting data on autobiographical memory, episodic memory, and working memory.

This study involves about an hour visit to the Psychology Research Lab (Anderson 26) which will include partaking in 4 memory/executive function tasks and a survey portion that requires participants to write out personal memories.

This study can take up to an hour and for that students who participate will be compensated with $10 in cash.

You may not be currently a part of an Augsburg athletic team. This study involves a one-hour visit to Kennedy Center Physiology lab (room 309) for Functional Movement Screen testing and a video of a single-leg squat. Participants will receive a $10 gift card to Target. You can come back after a week for further research testing and another $5 gift card.

$5 Cash Incentive for Research Study Participants

Hello Fellow Auggies!

My name is Anabel Chavez, a social psychology major and McNair Scholar at Augsburg College. I am conducting research this summer, and I would like to invite you to participate in my study!

This study measures how autobiographical memories can affect satisfaction in a romantic relationship. Therefore, the study will ask for participants to disclose two personal relationship-defining memories. Participants are required to be at least 18 years of age and are currently in a romantic (but not marital) relationship. Participants are also required to have been in their current romantic relationship for at least 6 months (or longer).

The study contains two phases, one which requires you to complete an online survey on your own time or at home (5-10 minutes), and the second phase requires you to come to campus to take a more extensive survey (20-30 minutes). Participants will also receive a $5 cash compensation at this time.

For any further questions, concerns, or to schedule an appointment, please send me an e-mail at chavez@augsburg.edu

Thank You!

Alum Al Garver Defends Mathematics Dissertation

The Department of Mathematics and URGO are proud to announce that Al Garver (2010) successfully defended his PhD dissertation in mathematics at the University of Minnesota last week.

While at Augsburg, Al completed an URGO summer research experience mentored by Dr. Stella Hoffrenning, an academic-year URGO research experience mentored by Dr. Jody Sorenson, an internship at Thomas-Reuters, and a summer Research Experience for Undergraduate (REU) at the University of Georgia. Al also participated in the prestigious Budapest Semester in Mathematics and was named a Goldwater Scholar, a national undergraduate competition that names top scholars in respective disciplines.

While a student at the University of MN, Al returned to Augsburg to speak about the graduate school process, and now can return to talk about writing and defending a dissertation.

Congratulations to Al and Augsburg's mathematics department which taught and mentored him.
