News & Announcements

Lund Parking Lot Closed... The Lund parking lot is closed starting from 11 p.m. today (Thursday, Nov. 29) through Saturday, Dec. 1, due to Christmas in Christ Chapel. With the exception of the visitor lots, all parking lots will be considered "open parking" through the weekend; vehicles may be parked in any red, yellow, or green parking space without regard to permit color from Friday, Nov. 30, until Sunday, Dec. 2. If questions, contact Safety and Security (x8809).

Emergency Communication Tests... As part of its ongoing and proactive emergency preparedness planning, Gustavus Adolphus College is enhancing its layered emergency communication program toinclude a new service called Connect-ED. Connect-ED enables campus administrators and security professionals to reach out to all members of the Gustavus community within minutes—through phone calls, e-mails, and text messages—with information and updates during unforeseen events or emergencies.
     School officials ask that all students, faculty, and staff enter and regularly update their emergency contact data online to make sure they are ready to receive important information at all times. Members of the campus community can update this information by going to the online campus directory at gustavus.edu/gribly. (After logging in, click the “Your Profile” tab and proceed to the “Emergency” tab to fill out or correct your contact information.)
     All contact information will remain secure and confidential. The system will only be used for emergencies or other unforeseen urgent communications, and campus community members will not receive unnecessary or frivolous communications via Connect-ED.
     The college plans to administer a systemwide test of the Connect-ED service each semester. The initial tests will occur on Monday, Dec. 10, and Tuesday, Dec. 11. On Dec. 10, the text message function of the system will be tested. Recipients of the test text message will be prompted to respond immediately to the message in order to opt in for future emergency text messages from the Connect-ED system. On Dec. 11, the entire system—including cell/mobile phones, land lines, text message devices, and e-mail—will be tested. Students and staff are advised to alert family members regarding this test if they have included home phone numbers in the system as emergency contacts.
     Questions regarding the Connect-ED service can be directed to Vice President for Marketing and Communication Gwen Freed at x6355 or gfreed@gustavus.edu.

     Scheer, a professor of Print Media at Alfred University in New York, is the co-founder of the Institute for Electronic Arts there. His beautiful and astonishing digital prints based on highly-magnified scans of moths have been featured in numerous exhibitions around the world, including the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the Regional Museum of Kristianstad (Sweden), and the Field Museum in Chicago. In conjunction with the Night Visions exhibition, the Museum is sponsoring a public lecture by the artist tonight (Thursday, Nov. 29) at 7:30 p.m. in Wallenberg Auditorium.

The 15 finalists selected for exhibition were given awards totaling $60,000, generously provided by sponsor Volkswagen of America, Inc. The appearance of Destination Anywhere at the Hillstrom Museum of Art is supported by funds from the Diversity Center of Gustavus Adolphus College. Special programming by the Museum in collaboration with VSA arts of Minnesota provides assistance to area schools wishing to bring students to the exhibition, and is made possible by a grant provided by the Prairie Lakes Regional Arts Council from funds appropriated by the Minnesota State Legislature.
