OCTOBER 10, 1977 . . THE FIRST SNOWFALL OF THE SEASON You don't live in a world all alone. Your brothers are here too. Albert Schweitzer HELLO SOUND BARRIER, GOODBYE 1-94 Late in the fall of 1977, city crews began construction on a sound barrier along 1-94. In it's completed form, the tall wooden structure extends from 25th Street to Cedar Avenue, completely sheltering Augsburg from the freeway. At first, the barrier seemed like a good idea. It would cut down the noise from the freeway, and create a more intimate atmosphere at Augsburg. The question now is whether the barrier is hiding the school's location from the public (our big. beautiful sign on Urness doesn't show anymore), or whether it is protecting Augsburg from the noise and frustrations of the city. Many of us came to Augsburg because it was located in an urban environment. As for the noise, ask the Butler Palace boys. 19
