Tutor for Basic English and Math Skills to Women
Health Commons is looking for someone to tutor East African women in our community. There is a need to improve basic English and math skills for women who are applying to graduate programs to continue their nursing education. For these women, their English skills are already good, they just need a little more work in order to pass the exam by a margin of a few points. The tutor does not need to be bilingual. If interested, please send an email to clarkk@augsburg.edu or barre@augsburg.edu. Thank you so much!
Sustainability in Nicaragua Teaching Manual
Congratulations to John Zobitz for his published work, "International Sustainability Projects for Calculus", in collaboration with CGEE Central America Co-Director, Mark Lester and Tracy Bibelnieks (former Augsburg faculty currently at UMN Duluth).
In 2012, John, Tracy, and an Augsburg math class traveled to a community called GARBO in Peñas Blancas, Jinotega, Nicaragua, set up via the Center for Global Education and Experience's contacts in the region. From the Engaging Mathematics website, "This manual investigates multi-faceted aspects of sustainability of a rural farming cooperative in Central America through analysis of resource allocation, carbon footprints, and exploration of the long-term sustainability for ecotourism development."

Subsidized Metro Transit College Pass for Students
Students can purchase a College Pass for $125 at the bookstore. Discounted from $175, the College Pass is good for fall semester on all buses and both the green line and the blue line (not good for the Northstar, however).
While student bookstore accounts are open (through 10th-day), students can put the permit on their bookstore account.
AND: AugSem students are receiving a "Go To" Card with $10 already loaded on them. Activate the card before Dec. 1, add $10, and the college will match with another $10.
