General Announcements

Augsburg-Luther Seminary Alliance Info Site

A new information site is available to provide periodic updates on the strategic alliance initiative between Luther Seminary and Augsburg College.

The site includes information about the initiative, a list of the executive committee members and progress on current projects. We are working on the two pilot projects that were announced in May and will update the site as progress is made.

In addition to focusing on areas where the two schools can work together, we also are exploring longer-term opportunities to provide services in a way that allows other institutions to join the alliance.

As updates are made to the site, information will be posted to the Luther Seminary intranet and to Augsburg College's A-mail. Feel free to check the site at any time. It is available on the College Reports page at https://augnet.augsburg.edu/protected/administration/reports/documents/president/augsburg-luther-alliance/ .

Please let us know if you have any questions or comments.

Thank you,

Co-chairs of the strategic alliance executive steering committee:
Rebecca John, vice president of Marketing and Communication, Augsburg College
Michael Morrow, vice president of Finance and Administration, Luther Seminary
