News from Augsburg
Fiona has now declared her major: math, with minors in Spanish and Theater. And speaking of theater, Fiona is in a production this weekend, if there is anyone who is interested in seeing it:
Debt
Developed by Sarah Myers
Site Specific Performances: October 25-November 2 [these are performance scattered around campus, for other students]
Town Hall Meetings: November 1, 2, 3 at 7
November 4 at 3 p.m.
Tjornhom-Nelson Theater, Foss Center
What does debt mean to you?
Debt is an experiment in site-specific performance and public art exploring the topic of student debt in its many forms. A week of short performances throughout the Augsburg College campus lead up to four student-facilitated town hall meetings focused on different facets of debt in an academic setting.
As a Town Hall Nation project, Debt is part of a national engagement initiative inviting arts organizations, colleges, and other community groups to create events that demonstrate, present, or embody an ideal town hall meeting.

There is no cost, but if you want you can bring a non-perishable food donation. The seats are first come first served, no reservations. All of the shows are in the Tjornhom-Nelson theatre in the Foss building, the same place they were for Inside Out (the show she was in last year).
All of the shows are different, with totally different leaders and content. I'm probably doing the most on Friday and Saturday but whichever night you go will be an awesome show. So, pretty much whenever works for you.
She called me today, grabbing twenty minutes before a campus performance to check in. She reported that as it's both midterms and tech week, things are pretty crazy for her. She was going to be going non-stop from the point she called me (at about 10:00 a.m.) through class, work, and tech rehearsal, until 11:00 p.m. tonight, with no opportunity to grab a proper meal ("I'll be eating granola bars out of a bag I'm taking with me. And I have a psychology test today and a paper due tomorrow.")
