Faculty and staff are invited to attend an open session lead by a candidate for the Bernard M. Christensen Distinguished University Chair in Religion and Vocation position. Candidates have been asked to give a presentation guided by the following prompt: Please develop and present a topic that connects your academic interests to a contemporary issue of our day, guided by the faith and values of the Lutheran Church and informed by your sense of what you would bring to the work of the Christensen Chair at Augsburg. Please allow time for Q and A at the end of the session.
