When we began making this magazine in early 2020, the world was markedly different than the one we inhabit today. Augsburg Now staff delayed the magazine\u2019s timeline due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the university\u2019s operations. Most of the stories and events described herein occurred before it became necessary to shift to many working from home, online gatherings, and other modified operations to slow the spread of the virus.<\/p>\n
Because we wanted to share these remarkable stories and Auggie accomplishments as soon as possible, our team decided to release this Spring\u2013Summer 2020 issue<\/a> in digital-only format, a first in the magazine\u2019s history.
