Want to share something in an upcoming edition of Inside Luther News, the seminary’s internal e-newsletter? Send your announcement to communic@luthersem.edu. Submit items for the November edition by Wednesday, October 14. Inside Luther News content is meant to be somewhat broader in scope—seasonal announcements, monthly reminders, stories about recent events or news of upcoming projects—than the daily Community Announcements posts and emails.
Campus Entryway Doors and Signage
Posters and fliers around campus may be hung up on the designated bulletin boards found in many locations in campus buildings. Promotional signage should not be put up on building entryway doors and windows, including the interior doors (second set of doors) that are part of the entryway. The small signs providing buildings access information are the only signage permitted on entryway doors and windows. If you have questions, email communic@luthersem.edu.
