Please be advised that concrete replacement work will take place in the student kitchen located in the basement of Bockman Hall on Monday, October 19. This work is part of the ongoing plumbing repairs in the student kitchen. During this time, there may be increased noise, dust, and temporary disruptions in the surrounding area. We ask that everyone exercise caution near the work area and follow any posted signage or restrictions. The Facilities and Operations team appreciates your patience and understanding as we work to complete these necessary improvements.

Students, registration for the winter term opens next week, and we are excited to help you prepare both for Winter RFS and the full semester ahead. By way of reminder, Winter RFS will take place in two locations:

• RFS 1, January 9–11, 2027 — Location: Luther Seminary Campus (St. Paul)
• RFS 2, January 13–15, 2027 — Location: Mount Olivet Lutheran Church, 5025 Knox Ave, Minneapolis

Whether you plan to attend RFS 1, RFS 2, or both, there is a change in accommodations and transportation that might affect your plans. In light of survey results from Fall RFS and the campus move next spring, we have decided to no longer partner with specific hotels. It is our hope that this will let each of you find the lodging solution that best meets your schedule, budget, and priorities. You are welcome to continue staying with any of the hotels we have recommended previously, and to reach out to them with any questions regarding rates, transportation, or amenities. 

Winter Term registration opens at 9 a.m. CT on Tuesday, October 20; Wednesday, October 21; and Thursday, October 22. More information about Winter Term registration and advising support is available on Inside Luther. Virtual open advising sessions will be available via Zoom from 9-9:45 a.m. CT on each of the dates listed above. Email advising@luthersem.edu with course planning questions.
