CHARACTERISTICS
0.F- T H E
EDUCATIONAL
or over a century,
Augsburg College has
emphasized intellectual
freedom in the search for
knowledge. Augsburg's academic program builds on a
liberal arts foundation to help
students understand the past,
interpret the present, and plan
for the future.
F
As in the weekday program,
Augsburg Weekend College
ofSers students a unique
combination of the liberal arts
disciplines and professional
education. Our goals are to
help students develop the
intellectual skills and attitudes
to be lifelong learners,
increase their competence in
selected areas of professional
work, and accomplish a higher
level of personal growth.
HISTORY
OF
WEEKEND
COLLEGE
In Fall of 1982 Augsburg
began Weekend College
under the directorship of
Dr. Rick Thoni. At that time
Weekend College had three
majors, 69 students, and
offered eight courses in the
first term.
Today with more than 1,100
students and 12 majors,
Augsburg's Weekend College
is the largest program of its
kind in the state. Faculty in
Weekend College are full-time
Augsburg professors as well
as adjunct professionals from
the work world. The Weekend
College student body has
become involved in student
government, and Weekend
College students participate in
academic and extracurricular
activities such as the student
newspaper, travel seminars,
the Weekend College Student
Union and the Weekend
College Advisory Network
(WECAN).
Augsburg Weekend College
continues to grow and develop
to meet the changing needs of
the adult and nontraditional
student of today.
PURPOSE
Augsburg Weekend College
provides an educational alternative to adults who desire
college experience but who
work or have other commitments during the week. It is a
means by which men and
women may earn a baccalaureate degree, gain skills for
professional advancement,
prepare for career change, or
pursue a personal interest in
one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
MISSION
OF THE
COLLEGE
Students who graduate from
Augsburg are well prepared to
make a difference in the
world. They stand as testaments to the College motto,
"Education for Service," and
to the Mission of the College:
To develop future leaders of
service to the world by
providing high quality educational opportunities which are
based in the liberal arts and
shaped by the faith and values
of the Christian Church, by
the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an
intentionally diverse campus
community.
THEADULTAS LEARNER A COMMUNITYOF
LEARNERS
Augsburg Weekend College is
designed to meet the needs
and preferences of adult
learners. The program is based
on the assumption that the
men and women who enroll in
Weekend College will be
mature, self-disciplined and
well-motivated adult learners
who seek a balance of classroom experience and
individualized study. Each
course is therefore divided
into periods of concentrated
on-campus study separated by
time for independent study
and class preparation.
Essential to the goals of
Augsburg's Weekend College is
participation in a community of
adult learners. Learning can be
enhanced when the student is
involved in a stable community
that provides opportunity and
encouragement to become
involved in interaction both in
and out of the classroom. This
community will be enriched by
the presence of both men and
women with a variety of work
and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of community
interaction, Augsburg encourages Weekend College students
to make use of college facilities

sors. Most faculty hold the
doctorate or other terminal
degree and all consider their
teaching to be the focus of their
activity. Faculty are involved in
social, professional and a variety
of research activities, but see
these activities as supporting
their teaching. They are actively
involved in an exciting faculty
development program which
introduces them to current
thought in many fields but
especially in teaching techniques and theories.
Augsburg's size and small
classes encourage its tradition
of close involvement between
professors and students.
Faculty act as academic
advisers and participate regularly in campus activities.
History
Augsburg College was
founded in 1869 in Marshall,
Wisconsin, and moved to
Minneapolis in 1872. The
name Augsburg College and
Seminary changed in 1963
when the Lutheran Free
Church merged with The
American Lutheran Church.
Location
Augsburg's 23-acre campus is
in the heart of the Twin Cities
metropolitan area, only blocks
from downtown Minneapolis
and the intersection of Interstate
Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent
to the campus are the Riverside
Medical Center, the West Bank
campus of the University of
Minnesota and the Mississippi
River parkways.
Campus
Augsburg's campus consists
of 15 major buildings which
include student housing
towers, the College Center,
main academic and administrative halls, the Library,
Music Hall and the Foss
Center for Worship, Drama
and Communication.
Accessibility
We have made a major effort
to become one of the most
accessible campuses in the
region. Our skyway-tunnel
system lets you reach any of 10
major buildings without going
outside. In addition to building
changes, we have a student-run
program to increase awareness
and provide extra help for
students with disabilities.
Church Affiliation
Augsburg is a college of The
Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America. Although a strong
plurality of students are Lutheran,
18 percent represent other
Protestant denominations and
2 1 percent represent the Roman
Catholic Church. Several other
affiliations are represented
among students and faculty.
POLICIES
It is the policy of Augsburg
College not to discriminate on
the basis of race, color, creed,
religion, sexual or affectional
preference, national or ethnic
origin, age, marital status, sex
or status with regard to public
assistance or disability, as
required by Title IX of the
1972 Educational Amendments
or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended,
in its admissions policies,
education programs, activities
and employment practices.

EXPERIENTIAL
EDUCATION PROGRAMS
Through Internships,
Cooperative Education and
Community Service, Augsburg
students integrate and expand
their liberal arts education by
embracing the worlds of work
and service. These programs
link employers, community
organizations and the academic program in a way that
enriches and expands a
student's educational experience and personal
development. An underlying
assumption is that a liberal
arts education is an effective
preparation for careers and
citizenship. The integration of
"knowing and doing" adds
breadth and depth to the
liberal arts curriculum and
assists students in making
more informed academic,
career and personal decisions.
The College's metropolitan
location makes possible a
wide range of opportunities.
Students have gained valuable
learning experiences in small
and mid-size companies, large
corporations, non-profit organizations, schools, government
agencies and communitybased organizations.

credit is a carefully planned
work-based learning experience
where a student focuses on
specific academic and individual learning objectives. A
learning agreement plan negotiated with a faculty supervisor and work supervisor,
outlining the internship objectives, strategies and evaluation
methods - is required. An
academic internship is
approved, supervised and evaluated by a faculty member in the
department in which the student
wishes to earn the Internship
credit. Upper Division intemships are numbered 399 and
Lower Division internships are
numbered 199.
Students also earn money to
help defray educational costs
while gaining important onthe-job experience. Job
placements typically are parttime during the academic year
and full-time in the summer.
Cooperative Education jobs
are flexible and can begin and
end anytime. Cooperative
Education is not credited in

encouraged to complete at least
one Internship for credit in
conjunction with their
Cooperative Education participation. Cooperative Education
is available to Augsburg

one term see the section of the
catalog under grading.
Augsburg's Service-Learning
program combines response to
human needs in the community
with a conscious awareness
and understanding of issues,
reflection and educational
growth. Augsburg students
learn from and about the
community and society in
which they live by participating in orientation sessions,
direct service-learning activities and seminars or class
discussions. Through direct
service, such as volunteering at
a homeless shelter, tutoring,
building housing for low
income people or working with
environmental groups, students
engage in a dynamic and interactive educational approach
which employs reciprocal
learning between the student(s)
and the community. Service
Learning includes courseimbedded community service,
tutoring, internships, cooperative education, and a wide
range of volunteer options.

sciences, the liberal arts
perspectives introduce students
to the breadth and complexity
of knowledge and culture.

students with the Christian
tradition and encourage them
to reflect upon the importance
and meaning of spirituality in
their lives. Recreation courses

of the Registrar before the
deadline (published in the
Weekend College Catalog
Supplement). Dropping a class

and objectives, required text@),
course schedule, grading criteria
and assignments. A syllabus is
especially important in Weekend
College because it advises the
student of any assignment due
the first class weekend. Students
are responsible for picking up
the course syllabus at the times
published in The Weekender,
the Weekend College informational publication.
EVALUATIONAND
C RADI NG
Student achievement in
courses is measured primarily
by final examinations. Shorter
tests, written papers, oral
reports and other types of
evaluation also are used.
Most courses are offered with
grading options - traditional
grading on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale or
the Pass/No Credit system, in
which P means a grade of 2.0
or better and N means no
credit and a grade of less than
2.0. Students who choose the
PIN option are cautioned:
In order to receive a grade
of P, a student must achieve
at least a grade of 2.0.
Some graduate and professional schools do not look
favorably on a large number
of P-graded courses, or rank
each as a "C".
P-graded courses do not
count toward the requirement that 14 traditionally
graded course credits be
earned at Augsburg in order
to be considered for graduation with distinction.
Transfer students should be
especially aware of this
requirement.
See PIN limitations under
Graduation Requirements on
page 28.
Note: Certain courses are
offered on one grading system
only (e.g., Lifetime Sports are
graded PIN only).
In courses where there is a
choice, students will be graded
on the traditional system
unless they indicate on their
registration that they wish to
use the PIN grading option.
Any changes in choice of
grading system must be made
according to dates published
each term. A fee is charged for
any changes made after the
first five days of classes.
NUMBER
GRADES
Number grades are used with
these definitions:
4.0 Achieves highest
standards of excellence
3.0 Achieves above basic
course standards
2.0 Meets basic standards for
the course
1.0 Performance below basic
course standards
0.0 Unacceptable performance (no credit for the
course)
Grades of P (Pass) or N (No
credit) are not computed in the
grade point average.
An incomplete grade (I) may
be given only in the case of
extreme emergency. To
receive an incomplete grade, a
student must receive permission of the instructor; must file
a form stating the reasons for
the request, the work required
to complete the course, the
plan and date for completing
the work, and comments from
the instructor; and must gain
the approval of the Registrar.
If permission is granted, the
necessary work must be
completed in enough time to
allow evaluation of the work
by the instructor and filing of
a grade before the final day of
the following trimester. If the
work is not completed by that
date, the grade for the course
becomes a 0.0.
Internships, Independent
Studies and Directed Studies
may sometimes last longer
than one term. When this is
the case, they must be
completed by the grading
deadlines within one year
from the beginning of the first
term of registration. A grade
of X is given by the instructor
to indicate that the study is
extended. It is expected that
students given X extensions
will continue to communicate
with their instructors and
demonstrate that satisfactory
progress is being maintained.
A final grade will be issued at
the end of the term in which
the work is completed and
evaluated (but not longer than
one year). An instructor has
the option of not giving an X
where satisfactory progress is
not demonstrated.
A course in which a grade of
0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or N has been
received may be repeated for
credit. Courses in which
higher grades have been
earned may not be repeated
for credit and a grade, but may
be audited. All courses taken
and grades earned each term
remain on the academic
record. Only the credits and
grades earned the second time,
for legitimately repeated
courses, are counted toward
graduation and in the grade
point average.
AUDITINGCOURSES
Students who wish to take
courses without credit or grade
may do so by registering for
Audit (V). The charge for
auditing is listed in the current
year's Weekend College
Catalog Supplement. The
signature of the instructor is
required to register an audit.
Students who audit a course
should confer with the
instructor two weeks prior to
the beginning of the term to
determine expectations, attendance and any other
requirements. If expectations
have been met, the course will
be listed on the transcript as
having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the
course will be listed with a
grade of W (Withdrawn).
GRADEPOINTAVERAGE ACADEMIC
PROGRESS,
PROBATION
AND
The grade point average
(GPA) is based on final grades
DISMISSAL
for all work at Augsburg. It
does not include credit and
grade points for work transferred from other colleges.
Courses taken on the PIN
grading option are recorded,
but not computed in the GPA.
The formula for computing the
GPA is:
-
GPA Total grade points
divided by number of credits
taken.*
* Using traditionally graded
course credits only.
CLASSIFICATION
Students are classified in
August and at the end of the
Fall Trimester.
Sophomores - Seven credits
completed.
Juniors - 16 credits completed.
Seniors - 24 credits completed.
The College requires that
students maintain the
following cumulative grade
point averages (GPA):
Freshman - A student who
has taken fewer than seven
credits with a cumulative GPA
of 1.6 or higher
Sophomore - A student who
has taken fewer than 16
credits with a cumulative GPA
of 1.7 or higher
Junior - A student who has
taken fewer than 24 credits
with a cumulative GPA of 1.9
or higher
Senior - A student who has
taken 24 or more credits with
a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or
higher.
It should be noted that a
minimum GPA of 2.0 is
required for graduation with
certain majors requiring a
higher minimum GPA.
Students whose academic
achievement falls below these
guidelines will either be placed
on scholastic probation at the
end of the term, will be
continued on probation or, will
be dismissed from the College.
In addition, a freshman who
receives two zero grades or a
sophomore who receives three
zero grades will be considered
for probation or dismissal.
However, dismissal from the
College is not automatic. Each
case is reviewed by the
Committee on Student
Standing. Evidence of the
student's commitment to academic progress is the major
consideration in deciding
whether or not to dismiss a
student. Those on probation
who voluntarily withdraw from
the College, as well as those
who are dismissed, must have
special permission to re-enroll.
Students may be removed
from probation when the
cumulative GPA reaches the
minimum level stated above.
Students placed on probation
as freshmen for having earned
two zero grades may be
removed from probation if
their classification changes to
sophomore, if they have not
earned additional zero grades,
and if their cumulative GPA
reaches 1.7. Students placed
on probation as sophomores
for having earned three zero
grades may be removed from
probation if their classification
changes to junior and their
cumulative GPA reaches 1.9.
The College reserves the right
to dismiss any student who
does not meet the guidelines
stated above. Once a student is
dismissed, he or she may
appeal the decision within 10
days to the Committee on
Student Standing.
DEAN'S
LIST
The Dean's List is compiled
after each trimester, listing
students whose grade point
average for a trimester is 3.5
or better. Students must be
full-time (a minimum two full
course credits for a Weekend
College student), graded on
the traditional grading system,
with no incompletes in courses
offered for credit. If permission is given by the student, an
announcement is sent to the
hometown newspaper of each
student on the Dean's List.
GRADUATION
WITH
DISTINCTION
Graduation with Distinction is
determined as follows:
Summa cum laude - 3.8 to
4.0 cumulative GPA
Magna cum laude - 3.6 up to
but not including 3.8 cumulative GPA
Cum laude - 3.3 up to but
not including 3.6 cumulative
GPA
To qualify for graduation with
distinction, transfer students
must have completed two
years (14 traditionally graded
credits) of work at Augsburg.
ASSESSMENT
OF
PREVIOUS
LEARNING
(APL) PROGRAM
Augsburg College recognizes
that learning can and does take
place in many life situations.
Some of this learning may be
appropriate for credit recognition within the disciplines that
compose the academic
program of a liberal arts
college. The Assessment of
Previous Learning (APL)
program at Augsburg
provides a means by which a
student's previous learning,
other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented
for examination for possible
credit toward the completion
of a baccalaureate degree.
Not all learning from life
experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition at
a liberal arts college. Such
learning must meet two essential criteria: 1) it is relevant to
course work in a field of study
within the Augsburg liberal
arts curriculum and 2) it can
be objectively demonstrated
either by comprehensive
examination or committee
evaluation.
The APL program at
Augsburg provides several
means by which students may
have their previous learning
assessed for credit recognition.
The following is a brief
description of each of these
means of assessment:
The College Level
Examination Program
(CLEP)
This is a series of standardized
tests which have been developed by the College Board
and are offered to students for
a small fee at regional testing
centers. (The regional testing
center for this area is the
University of Minnesota.)
Students who score at or
above the 65th percentile on a
subject examination may
receive academic credit for
that subject at Augsburg
College. Additional information about CLEP tests is
available from the Office of
the Registrar.
Departmental
Comprehensive Exams
These are available for students
to use in obtaining credit for
previous learning if the
following conditions are met:
There is a departmental
instrument available for the
subject area in question.
There is a faculty member
designated by the department to administer the
exam.
The Registrar approves the
student's request to take the
exam. Credit for departmental exams is available on
a passlno credit basis only,
and there is a charge per
exam of $485.00 for a full
course credit.
The Credit Assessment
Program (CAP)
This is a credit assessment
alternative in which a faculty
committee completes a credit
evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the student.
The faculty committee is
composed of a representative
from the Office of the
Registrar and two faculty
members from fields of study
directly related to the student's
previous learning.
Informational meetings and
consultation are provided for
students who wish to prepare a
portfolio of previous learning
for credit assessment. This
may include a personal
meeting with the CAP
committee. In completing the
evaluation of a student's
previous learning, the CAP
committee applies the
following criteria:
There is documentable
evidence of a cognitive
component in the previous
learning experience that
involved prescribed andlor
systematic study of content
material found within liberal
arts course work.
The learning has been objectively verified by individuals
in addition to the presenting
student.
The learning lends itself to
both qualitative and quantitative measurement.
The learning relates well to
the student's educational
goals.
The learning and skills
involved are current and
could be used at the present
time.
Students may apply for the
credit assessment process after
completing at least four
courses of academic work at
Augsburg College with a
cumulative Augsburg GPA of
at least 2.5. It is strongly
recommended that the process
not be used when four or
fewer courses remain for graduation. There is an application
deposit to initiate the credit
assessment process, and a
charge for each semester
credit applied to the student's
transcript if credit is approved.
Transcript credit will be
granted on the basis of
semester credits, and the total
number of credits granted will
be divided by four to determine the number of course
credits applied to graduation.
These credits will be recorded
with the course number of
CAP 2xx. Application of this
credit toward the Liberal Arts
Perspective requirements,
Upper Division requirements,
and academic majors and
minors may be subsequently
addressed by the departments
involved in response to a
formal request by the student.
Maximum Credit Accepted
for Previous Learning
While Augsburg College
recognizes the validity of
learning that takes place
outside the traditional classroom, this learning must be
placed in the context of formal
study in campus-based liberal
arts courses. Therefore,
Augsburg places a maximum
of eight courses (one-fourth of
a baccalaureate degree) on
transcript credit that is
obtained through previous
experiential learning. In
compiling the eight courses of
credit for previous experiential
learning, the student may use
any combination of the three
assessment processes available
in the APL program: CLEP
exams, departmental exams
and credit granted through
CAP Committee assessment.
Lifetime Sports Assessment of Previous
Learning (APL) Program
Students in the Weekend
College may complete one or
both of the two required graduation skills of Lifetime
Sports through the APL
process. The Lifetime Sports
graduation skills are non-academic courses and no credit is
earned by their completion;
however, fulfillment of two
Lifetime Sports is necessary to
graduate. There is a fee for
each Lifetime Sport completed
by APL. Additional information about Lifetime Sport APL
is available from the Weekend
College Office.

(see page 55 for details).
ACCOUNTING
- ACC
The major in accounting
prepares students for professional careers in a wide
variety of accounting-related
positions. This major has two
tracks: General Accounting
and Professional Accounting.
The General Accounting
specialization is adequate for a
wide variety of positions. The
Professional Accounting track
includes two specializations:
public accounting and
managerial accounting. The
public accounting spccialization is recommended for
positions with CPA firms. The
managerial accounting specialization is recornmended for
positions with large or rapidlygrowing companies.
Thc two professional specializations rclate to two
professional dcsignations: the
CPA and the CMA. A CPA
(Ccrtificd Public Accountant)
focuses on cxtcrnal reporting;
a CMA (Ccrtificd Management
Accountant) focuscs on
internal reporting. The public
accounting specialization
includes the materials emphasized on the CPA exam; the
managerial specialization
includes the materials emphasized on the CMA exam.
Designations have an experi-
ence requirement in addition
to passing the national exam.
Under the rules of the
Minnesota State Board of
Accountancy, Accounting
majors in the public accounting
specialization are qualified to
sit for the CPA examination
during their last semester.

COMMUNICATION
SPC
Our quality of life, both
personally and professionally,
depends in large part upon the
quality of our communication.
A Communication major at
Augsburg is designed to
enhance understanding of
communication in a variety of
contexts and to improve
communication skills.
Since careers in communication
demand a broad educational
background, the Department
strongly encourages a second
major or two minors in fields
such as business, economics,
English, history, international
relations, political science,
psychology, religion, social
work or sociology.
The Augsburg Communication
major focuses on competency
in both speech and writing, as
well as effective use of media.
Since the study and practice of
communication is grounded in
both the humanities and the
social sciences, majors are
encouraged to include such
related subjects as aesthetics,
ethics, philosophy, logic, literature, statistics and research
methods in their programs.
All Communication majors
must complete a core group of
seven required courses, supplemented by five electives in one
of the following concentrations: public relations and
advertising, marketing communication, human relations, or
supervisory management.
Prospective majors should meet
with a departmental adviser as
early as possible to design an
approved major program,
preferably by the end of the
sophomore year. Majors in
Communication are candidates
for the Bachelor of Arts degree.

NURSING
- NUR
The Augsburg Nursing
Program is designed exclusively for registered nurses
who want to increase their
opportunities in the health
care field.
The scope of nursing practice
is changing and expanding.
Nurses are being called on to
function in a variety of
settings that differ from those
in the past. Today nurses work
in hospitals, clinics, corporations, government agencies,
schools and community organizations; some are
self-employed running their
own businesses. All of these
nurses provide comprehensive
health assessment for individuals from all cultures and
socioeconomic levels. From
helping parents have safe
deliveries of healthy infants to
coordinating home care for the
dying, nurses assist people
through their entire life span.
The Baccalaureate degree
equips the nurse with a
working knowledge of the
biological, physical, social,
behavioral and nursing
sciences. The nursing program
at Augsburg College also
provides the educational
opportunities to increase skills
in critical thinking, clinical
investigation and decisionmaking that prepare nurses to
handle challenging new positions in today's health care
field.

PSYCHOLOGY
- PSY
Psychology, with its emphasis
on behavioral observation and
data, provides a perspective on
human activities which is an
integral part of liberal education.
The goal of the Psychology
program is the improved understanding of human behavior by
studying how people cope with
their environment and interact
with each other.
Psychologists use a variety of
methods to study behavior,
including experimentation,
observation and clinical case
analysis. Faculty members
have varied professional
specializations such as
counseling, physiological
psychology, human development, personality, social and
organizational psychology,
and analysis of public policy.
The Psychology program's
emphasis on the use of a
problem solving approach, the
acquisition of information
about human development and
interaction, and the development of human relations skills
can be beneficial in careers in
business, education and other
social services, the church
government, as well as in
careers such as research, law
and medicine.

RELIGION- REL
Augsburg College understands
itself as a college of the church
and it is persuaded that the
Christian faith provides an
appropriate perspective from
which to undertake its educational task. The biblical faith
and tradition of the Christian
Church have influenced the
whole world and they have
affected and continue to influence language, literature,
history, values and political
structures.
The student encounters this
religious tradition in studying
these and other areas. The
study of religion and theology
is intended to make such
encounters more meaningful
through a better knowledge of
biblical history and that of the
Christian Church, and by a
larger acquaintance with theological thought.
While it is true that the fundamental orientation of this
College is to the Christian
faith, it is also true that the
field of religion obviously
includes more than is represented by the Christian faith.
Large segments of the earth's
population live by religious
concepts and ideas which are
different from Christianity.
The Department of Religion
seeks to introduce students to
some of these major religious
traditions.
Religion Major
Eight courses including:
REL 11 1
Introduction to Theology
REL 221
Biblical Studies
Other Requirements
Religion 11 1 or 221 is prerequisite to all other courses and
is to be taken in either the
freshman or sophomore year
at Augsburg. Exceptions may
be made for junior or senior
transfer students, but the basic
courses are still highly recommended as preparation for
Upper Division courses.
REL 481
Contemporary Theology
Department approval is necessary before courses taken at
other colleges can be accepted
for Religion Department
and/or general education
course credit.
REL 495
Seminar
All majors must consult with
the Department Chair.
Three additional Religion

SOCIAL WORK
- SWK
The Social Work major
prepares graduates for entrylevel generalist professional
practice in the field of human
services. The program is
accredited by the Council on
Social Work Education and
leads to a Bachelor of Science
degree. The program is based
on a generalist model of practice, enabling graduates to
work with individuals, families, groups, communities and
to develop and analyze social
policy. Courses within the
program utilize a student
empowerment model for
teaching and learning.
Augsburg's social work major
also provides a strong foundation for graduate studies in a
variety of fields. Augsburg

grade. Most Weekend College
classes meet seven times
during a trimester plus Finals
Class Weekend. Some courses
meet for the entire period on
Finals Class Weekend.

CLASS
SCHEDULE
There are three trimesters in
Weekend College - Fall,
Winter and Spring. A calendar
of class weekends for each
trimester and a tentative
schedule of courses offered
can be found in the Weekend
College Supplement. Many
courses are offered at least
once a year; however, since
some courses are offered in
alternate years, it is important
that the student review major
requirements and course offerings with an adviser to ensure
that all requirements can be
met. Descriptions and schedules for courses offered in the
day schedule, January Interim,
Summer School, the Master of
Arts in Leadership, Master of
Arts in Leadership-Education

listed in the course description. A student may only
enroll in a course when a
prerequisite has not been
fulfilled if there is prior
approval by the professor
teaching the course and the
academic adviser.

I hope you are looking at this catalog because you've enrolled at
Augsburg College. if so--Welcome to the College! All of us hope
you find, in the course of your study, a rising enthusiasm for the
work, a deepening appreciation of the profession and role to which
you feel called, and a confident sureness that you have rightly
chosen Augsburg for the purpose.
Ifyou are dipping into this little volume to figure out who and what
Augsburg College is and what education it offers-Welcome to
these pages! May they convey the fundamental proposition of our
education: that we provide an education especially serviceable in
the contemporary world because it has been designed in the midst
of and in full contact with the critical social, economic, religious,
and political phenomena of the modern city. This education,
however practical and professional, will be serviceable over the
long haul only to the degree that it respects and pursues certain of
what Martin Luther called "thefine liberal arts, " and it will be
exciting only to the degree it is offered for the sake of improving
both its students and the world itseg
The study you are undertaking at Augsburg-or thinking of undertaking-will occur on and at the core of the campus, with library,
food services, and other facilities open and operating; will be led by
permanent as well as adjunct members of the Augsburg faculty; will
be organized by the identical tried and tested curriculum used in the
day school; and will be conducted by a college that has declared the
Weekend College an integral aspect of its core educational business.
As you join the enterprise, or consider doing so, please know that
those of us who await you herefind the College an exciting setting,
full of diversity and yet dedicated to the cultivation of a learning
community, in which you can set off in new directions and in which
destinations are reachable.
Bon Voyage!
Sincerely yours,
William V. Frame
President

HISTORY
OF
WEEKEND
COLLEGE
In fall of 1982 Augsburg
began Weekend College under
the directorship of
Dr. Richard Thoni. At that
time Weekend College had
three majors, 69 students, and
offered eight courses in the
first term.
;
Today with more than 1,000
students and 14 majors,
Augsburg's Weekend College
is the largest program of its
kind in the state. Faculty in
Weekend College are full-time
Augsburg professors as well
as adjunct professionals from
the work world. The Weekend
College student body is
involved in student government, and Weekend College
students participate in academic and extracurricular
activities such as the student
newspaper, travel seminars,
and the Weekend College
Commission.
Augsburg Weekend College
continues to develop to meet
the changing needs of the adult
and nontraditional student of
today.
PURPOSE
Augsburg Weekend College
provides an educational alternative to adults who desire
college experience but who
work or have other commitments during the week. It is a
means by which men and
women may earn a baccalaureate degree, gain skills for
professional advancement,
prepare for career change, or
pursue a personal interest in
one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
MISSION
OF THE
COLLEGE
Students who graduate from
Augsburg are well prepared to
make a difference in the
world. They stand as testaments to the College motto,
"Education for Service," and
to the mission of the College:
To nurture future leaders in
service to the world by
providing high quality educational opportunities, which are
based in the liberal arts and
shaped by the faith and values
of the Christian Church,
by the context of a vital
metropolitan setting, and by
an intentionally diverse
campus community.
THEADULTAS LEARNER A COMMUNITYOF
LEARNERS
Augsburg Weekend College is
designed to meet the needs
and preferences of adult
learners. The program is based
on the assumption that the
men and women who enroll in
Weekend College will be
mature, self-disciplined, and
well-motivated adult learners
who seek a balance of classroom experience and
individualized study. Each
course is therefore divided
into periods of concentrated
on-campus study separated by
time for independent study
and class preparation.
ALTERNATE
WEEKENDS
To accommodate this format
for learning, classes generally
meet on alternate weekends
for three and one-half hours
on either Friday evening,
Saturday morning, Saturday
afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each course selected by
the student involves commitment to one of these four class
periods. Laboratory sections or
additional class hours may be
scheduled during the week.
Weekend College students
may take from one to four
courses each term. Selected
courses are also available on
weekday evenings.
Essential to the goals of
Augsburg's Weekend College is
participation in a community of
adult learners. Learning can be
enhanced when the student is
active in a stable community
that provides opportunity and
encouragement for involvement
both in and out of the classroom. This community will be
enriched by the presence of
both men and women with a
variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of
community interaction,
Augsburg encourages Weekend
College students to make use of
College facilities such as the
Lindell Library and the
Christensen Center, to take the
opportunity of having shared
meals and coffee breaks, to
participate in optional lunchtime seminars, and to attend
other College activities such as
music and dramatic presentations and athletic events.
FACULTV
The heart of any educational
institution is its faculty, and
Augsburg College is particularly proud of the excellence
and commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold the
doctorate or other terminal
degree and all consider their
teaching to be the focus of their
activity. Faculty are involved in
social, professional, and a
variety of research activities,
but see these activities as
supporting their teaching. They
are actively involved in an
exciting faculty development
program that introduces them
to current thought in many
fields, but especially in teaching
techniques and theories.
Augsburg's size and small
classes encourage its tradition
of close involvement between
professors and students.
Faculty act as academic
advisers and participate regularly in campus activities.
History
Augsburg College and
Seminary was founded in 1869
in Marshall, Wisconsin, and
moved to Minneapolis in 1872.
In 1963 the name officially
became Augsburg College
when the Seminary left
campus as part of the Lutheran
Free Church merger with the
American Lutheran Church.
Location
Augsburg's 23-acre campus is
in the heart of the Twin Cities
metropolitan area, only blocks
from downtown Minneapolis
and the intersection of Interstate
Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent
to the campus are the FairviewUniversity Medical Center, the
West Bank campus of the
University of Minnesota, and
the Mississippi River parkways.
Campus
Augsburg's campus consists
of 16 major buildings, which
include student housing
towers, Christensen Center,
main academic and administrative halls, Lindell Library,
Music Hall, and the Foss
Center for Worship, Drama,
and Communication.
Accessibility
We have made a major effort
to become one of the most
accessible campuses in the
region. Our skyway-tunnel
system lets you reach any of 10
major buildings without going
outside. In addition to building
changes, we have a dedicated
program to provide support for
students with disabilities.
Church Affiliation
Augsburg is a college of the
Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America. Although a strong
plurality of students are Lutheran,
20 percent represent other
Protestant denominations and
21 percent represent the Roman
Catholic Church. Several other
affiliations are represented
among students and faculty.

~raisferCredit
Augsburg College welcomes
students who wish to transfer
after completing work at other
accredited colleges or univer-
sities. College credit is granted
for liberal arts courses satisfactorily completed at
accredited institutions. The
College reserves the right not
to grant credit for courses
where it considers the work
unsatisfactory, to grant provisional credit for work taken at
unaccredited institutions, and
to require that certain courses
be taken at Augsburg.
Augsburg College limits
transfer of credit from twoyear colleges once a student
has reached junior status. If all
transfer work has been taken
at a two-year college, a
maximum of 17 Augsburg
courses, or 96 quarter credits,
will be accepted toward the
minimum of 33 Augsburg
course credits required for the
baccalaureate degree.
Transfer Credit Evaluation
An evaluation of transfer
credit is completed by the
registrar upon admission for
each degree-seeking student
who is transferring previous
college work. This evaluation
indicates which of the
student's courses have been
accepted for transfer credit at
Augsburg College and how
many course credits the
student has earned in transfer.
The registrar also determines
which transfer courses may be
used to fulfill general education requirements and may
request that the student
provide course descriptions,
syllabi or other information to
assist in this determination.
For an evaluation of transfer
courses toward major, minor,
or licensure requirements, the
student should consult the
appropriate department chair.
ACADEMICADVISING
The Academic Advising
Center advises all incoming
students, provides information
about general education
requirements, administers and
tracks entry level skill assessments, and advises students
placed on academic probation.
The Advising Center also

Federal Stafford Student
Loans
Subsidized and Unsubsidized
Stafford Loan funds are
obtained directly from a local
lender or state agency in states
that provide such programs.
Subsidized Stafford loans are
need-based loans that the
federal government subsidizes
by paying accrued interest
while in school and during the
grace period. Therefore, the
borrower is not responsible for
interest accrued while in
school or during the six-month
grace period.
Interest begins accruing on the
date of disbursement for the
Unsubsidized Stafford Loan,
A i d
and the borrower is responsible
for all interest. The borrower
may choose to make payments
while in school or may defer
payments and allow interest to
be capitalized (added to the
balance of the loan).
The interest rate for borrowers
through the Subsidized and
Unsubsidized Stafford Loan is
variable with a cap of 8.25
percent and changes annually
based on the 91-Day Treasury
Bill. The following borrowing
limits apply to the Stafford
Loan program:
Freshmen: $2,625 annually

CENTERFOR SERVICE,
WORK,AND LEARNING
The Center for Service, Work,
and Learning is a comprehensive center incorporating an
educational focus emphasizing
the importance and value for
all students to engage in
service and work-based
learning experiences and
design of a four-year career
plan integrating their education
with a vocation and life plan.
The programs of the Center link
employers, community organizations, and the academic
program in a way that enriches
and expands a student's educational experience and personal
development. An underlying
assumption is that a liberal arts
education is an effective preparation for careers and
citizenship. The integration of
'knowing and doing" adds
breadth and depth to the liberal
arts curriculum and assists
students in making more
informed academic, career, and
personal decisions.
The College's metropolitan
location makes possible a wide
range of opportunities. Students
have gained valuable learning
experiences in small and midrange companies, large
corporations, nonprofit organizations, schools, government
agencies, and community-based
organizations.
Cooperative Education
Cooperative education is a
college supported and monitored, paid, work-learning
experience that is closely
related to a student's major or
career objective. The goal is to
combine theory with practice in
work or service-based settings.
Students also earn money to
help defray educational costs
while gaining important on-thejob experience. Cooperative
education jobs are flexible and
can begin and end anytime.
Cooperative education is not
credited in and of itself, but a
non-credit cooperative education transcript entry is
available during the academic
terms the student is employed.
Cooperative education students
are encouraged to complete at
least one internship for credit in
conjunction with their cooperative education participation.
Cooperative education is available to Augsburg students who
have completed their freshman
year and are in good academic
standing.
Academic Internships
An internship for academic
credit is a carefully planned,
work-based learning experience
where a student focuses on
specific academic and individual learning objectives. A
learning agreement plan-negotiated with a faculty supervisor
and work supervisor, outlining
the internship objectives, strategies, and evaluation
methods-is required. An academic internship is approved,
supervised, and evaluated by a
faculty member in the department in which the student
wishes to earn the internship
credit. Upper division internships are numbered 399 and
lower division internships are
numbered 199.
Information on registering for
internships may be obtained
from the Center for Service,
Work, and Learning.
Internships are available in all
majors and can be taken during
a Weekend College trimester
or summer session. For extension of an internship beyond
one term see the section of the
catalog under grading.
Community
Service-Learning
Augsburg's Community
Service-Learningprogram
combines response to human
needs in the community with a
conscious awareness and
understanding of issues, reflection, and educational growth.
Augsburg students learn from
and about the community and
society in which they live by
participating in orientation
sessions, direct servicelearning activities, and
seminars or class discussions.
Through direct service, such as
volunteering at a homeless
shelter, tutoring, building
housing for low income people,
or working with environmental
groups, students engage in a
dynamic and interactive
educational approach that
employs reciprocal learning
between the student(s) and the
community. Service-learning
includes course-imbedded
community service, tutoring,
internships, cooperative education, and a wide range of
volunteer options.
Career Services
The Career Services Office is
committed to assisting all
students with their career planning. To aid students in this
process, Career Services offers
students the opportunity to
participate actively in career
seminars, career assessments,
one-on-one counseling, selfpaced computer career planning
modules, and use of the Alumni
Resource Network for informational interviews.
CONTINUING
EDUCATION
The mission of Augsburg
College Continuing Education

with lifelong learning opportunities that will enable them to
continue to grow personally,
professionally, and spiritually
in their homes, workplaces, and
communities. Adult students
who wish to earn traditional
course credit that may be
applied toward an undergraduate academic degree should
contact the Weekend College.

toward a more just and sustainable world. The center's
programs explore a diversity of
viewpoints and are grounded
in the perspectives of the poor
and of others struggling for
justice and human dignity.

service, and guidance in
pursuing research.
Arrangements are made for
access by students with physical limitations and special
needs. Students can search a
wide variety of local, regional,
national, and international
databases. Electronic access to
the world of scholarship is
also available through the
Internet, and a computerized
on-line catalog and daily
courier service provide access

Scheduling (choosing
classes)-A student reserves
a space in classes for each
trimester by completing a
schedule form. Scheduling
can be done in advance of
payment.
Payment (confirmation of
schedule)-A student who
has scheduled courses must
then confirm that schedule
by paying. Dates and deadlines for scheduling and
payment are listed in the
Weekend College Catalog
Supplement.
SOMEIMPORTANT
POINTSON
REGISTRATION:
A student must be registered
for a course in order to
receive course credit for it.
A student in Weekend
College is considered fulltime if he or she registers
for two courses per trimester
Students are responsible for
obtaining registration materials from the Weekend
College Office.
A student who has not paid
or made partial payment
prior to the first day of
classes is not registered for
their course(s). The student
may register and confirm the
first class weekend, but late
fees will apply and their
space in the course(s) will
not be held.
CROSSOVER
POLICY
It is expected that Weekend
College students complete
their degree requirements in
the Weekend College
schedule; however, students
may take a course in the day
schedule as a crossover. A
Weekend College student
wishing to attend a day
schedule course, or a day
student wishing to attend a
course in Weekend College,
must schedule at the Office of
the Registrar. Students taking
courses in both the day
program and Weekend
College program schedules
that total three or more
courses on any given date will
be charged comprehensive day
program tuition. A Weekend
College student taking one day
schedule course and who has
fewer than three total courses
will be charged the current
part-time tuition for day
school.
Students will also follow these
guidelines:
Students may cross over for
one full course credit per
term.
The course selected must
have space available.
Weekend College students
may not cross over to attend
ACTC (Associated Colleges
of the Twin Cities) courses,
except when required by the
major to do so.
Courses cross-listed in the
Weekend College schedule
and the day schedule are not
subject to cross over policy.
Contact the Office of the
Registrar for more information
on the crossover policy.
WITHDRAWING
FROM
COURSES
Students may drop (also
referred to as canceling or
withdrawing) a particular
course by completing a
CancelIAddChange of
Registration form at the Office
of the Registrar before the
deadline (published in the
Weekend College Catalog
Supplement). Dropping a class
will result in a W for withdrawal on an official academic
record. Students are urged not
to abandon courses for which
they are registered because this
may result in a failing grade on
their official academic record.
The refund schedule is listed
on page 14. Note: A student
may withdraw after the refund
schedule has expired.
WITHDRAWAL
FROM
COLLEGE
Students who do not intend to
continue at Augsburg must file
a Withdrawal from College
form at the Office of the
Registrar. This is not necessary
if the student is taking a term
off; however, Weekend
College students who do not
attend courses for three
consecutive trimesters
(excluding summer) are
considered inactive and must
file an Application for
Re-admission form with the
Office of the Registrar in order
to resume their academic
program. Students are responsible for keeping the Office of
the Registrar informed of their
mailing address.
SYLLABUS
A syllabus is a course outline
written by the instructor that
may include a course description
and objectives, required text@),
course schedule, grading criteria,
and assignments. A syllabus is
especially important in Weekend
College because it advises the
student of any assignment due
the first class weekend. Students
are responsible for picking up
the course syllabus at the times
published in The Weekender,
the Weekend College informational publication.
EVALUATION AND
C RADING
Student achievement in
courses is measured by final
examinations, shorter tests,
written papers, oral reports,
and other types of evaluation.
Most courses are offered with
grading options-traditional
grading on a 4.0 scale or the
Pass/No Credit system, in
which P means a grade of 2.0
or better and N means no
credit and a grade of less than
2.0. Students who choose the
P/N option are cautioned:
In order to receive a grade
of P a student must achieve
at least a grade of 2.0.
Some graduate and professional schools do not look
favorably on a large number
of P-graded courses, or rank
each as a C.
P-graded courses do not
count toward the requirement that 14 traditionally
graded course credits be
earned at Augsburg in order
to be considered for graduation with distinction.
Transfer students should be
especially aware of this
requirement.
See P/N limitations under
Graduation Requirements on
page 29.
Note: Certain courses are
offered on one grading system
only (e.g., Lifetime Sports are
graded P/N only).
In courses where there is a
choice, students will be graded
on the traditional system
unless they indicate on their
registration that they wish to
use the P/N grading option.
Any changes in choice of
grading system must be made
according to dates published
each term. A fee is charged for
any changes made after the
published deadline for dropping without record notation.
I n f o r m a t i o n .
NUMERIC
GRADES
Numeric grades are used with
these definitions:
4.0 Achieves highest
standards of excellence
3.0 Achieves above basic
course standards
2.5
2.0 Meets basic standards
for the course
1.0 Performance below basic
course standards
0.5
0.0 Unacceptable performance
(no credit for the course)
Grades of P (Pass) or N (No
credit) are not computed in the
grade point average.
An incomplete grade (I) may
be given only in the case of
extreme emergency. To
receive an incomplete grade, a
student must receive permission of the instructor and must
file a form with the Registrar's
Office stating the reasons for
the request, the work required
to complete the course, the
plan and date for completing
the work, and comments from
the instructor. The necessary
work must be completed in
enough time to allow evaluation of the work by the
instructor and filing of a grade
before the final day of the
following trimester. If the
work is not completed by that
date, the grade for the course
becomes a 0.0.
Internships, independent
studies and directed studies
may sometimes last longer
than one term. When this is
the case, they must be
completed by the grading
deadlines within one year
from the beginning of the first
term of registration. A grade
of X is given by the instructor
to indicate that the study is
extended. It is expected that
students given X extensions
will continue to communicate
with their instructors and
demonstrate that satisfactory
progress is being maintained.
A final grade will be issued at
the end of the term in which
the work is completed and
evaluated (but not longer than
one year). An instructor has
the option of not giving an X
where satisfactory progress is
not demonstrated.
REPEATING
COURSES
A course in which a grade of
0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or N has been
received may be repeated for
credit. Courses in which
higher grades have been
earned may not be repeated
for credit and a grade but may
be audited. All courses taken
and grades earned each term
remain on the academic
record. Only the credits and
grades earned the second time,
for legitimately repeated
courses, are counted toward
graduation and in the grade
point average.
AUDITINGCOURSES
Students who wish to take
courses without credit or grade
may do so by registering for
Audit (V). The charge for
auditing is listed in the current
year's Weekend College
Catalog Supplement. The
signature of the instructor is
required to register an audit.
Students who audit a course
should confer with the
instructor two weeks prior to
the beginning of the term to
determine expectations, attendance, and any other
requirements. If expectations
have been met, the course will
be listed on the transcript as
having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the
course will be listed with a
grade of W (Withdrawn).
Courses for which transfer
credit has been awarded may
not be repeated for credit at
Augsburg. This includes
courses that are substantially
similar despite different titles
or emphases.
GRADEPOINTAVERAGE
The grade point average
(GPA) is based on final grades
for all work at Augsburg. It
does not include credit and
grade points for work transferred from other colleges.
Courses taken on the P/N
grading option are recorded,
but not computed in the GPA.
The formula for computing the
GPA is:
GPA = Total grade points
divided by number of course
credits attempted.*
* Using traditionally graded
course credits only.
CLASSIFICATION
Student classifications are
updated in August and at the
end of the fall trimester.
Sophomores-Seven
credits completed.
course
Juniors - 16 course credits
completed.
Seniors-24 course credits
completed.
ACADEMIC
PROGRESS,
~ROBAT~O
AND
N
DISMISSAL
The College requires that
students maintain the
following cumulative grade
point averages (GPA):
Freshman-A student who has
taken fewer than seven credits
with a cumulative GPA of 1.6
or higher
Sophomore-A student who
has taken fewer than 16
credits with a cumulative GPA
of 1.7 or higher
Junior-A student who has
taken fewer than 24 credits
with a cumulative GPA of 1.9
or higher
Senior-A student who has
taken 24 or more credits with
a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or
higher.
It should be noted that a
minimum GPA of 2.0 is
required for graduation with
certain majors requiring a
higher minimum GPA.
Students whose academic
achievement falls below these
guidelines will either be placed
on scholastic probation at the
end of the term, will be
continued on probation, or will
be dismissed from the College.
In addition, a freshman who
receives two zero grades or a
sophomore who receives three
zero grades will be considered
for probation or dismissal.
However, dismissal from the
College is not automatic. Each
case is reviewed by the
Committee on Student
Standing. Evidence of the
student's commitment to academic progress is the major
consideration in deciding
whether or not to dismiss a
student. Those on probation
who voluntarily withdraw from
the College, as well as those
who are dismissed, must have
special permission to re-enroll.
Students may be removed
from probation when the
cumulative GPA reaches the
minimum level stated above.
Students placed on probation
as freshmen for having earned
two zero grades may be
removed from probation if
their classification changes to
sophomore, if they have not
earned additional zero grades,
and if their cumulative GPA
reaches 1.7. Students placed
on probation as sophomores,
juniors, and seniors for having
earned three zero grades may
be removed from probation if
their classification changes to
junior and their cumulative
GPA reaches 1.9.
The College reserves the right
to dismiss any student who
does not meet the guidelines
stated above. Once a student is
dismissed, he or she may
appeal the decision within 10
days to the Committee on
Student Standing.
A c a d e m i c
I
DEAN'S
LIST
The Dean's List is compiled
after each trimester, listing
students whose grade point
average for a trimester is 3.5
or better. Students must be
full-time (a minimum two full
course credits for a Weekend
College student), graded on
the traditional grading system,
with no incompletes in courses
offered for credit. If permission is given by the student, an
announcement is sent to the
hometown newspaper of each
student on the Dean's List.
ASSESSMENT
OF
PREVIOUS
LEARNING
(APL) PROGRAM
Augsburg College recognizes
that learning can and does take
place in many life situations.
Some of this learning may be
appropriate for credit recognition within the disciplines that
compose the academic
program of a liberal arts
college. The Assessment of
Previous Learning (APL)
program at Augsburg provides
a means by which a student's
previous learning, other than
that which is transferred from
another accredited institution,
may be presented for examination for possible credit toward
the completion of a baccalaureate degree.
Not all learning from life
experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition at
a liberal arts college. Such
learning must meet two essential criteria: (1) it is relevant to
course work in a field of study
within the Augsburg liberal
arts curriculum and (2) it can
be objectively demonstrated
either by comprehensive
examination or committee
evaluation.
The APL program at
Augsburg provides several
means by which students may
have their previous learning
assessed for credit recognition.
The following is a brief
description of each of these
means of assessment:
The College Level
Examination Program
(CLEP)
This is a series of standardized
tests which have been developed by the College Board
and are offered to students for
a small fee at regional testing
centers. (The regional testing
center for this area is the
University of Minnesota.)
Students who score at or
above the 65th percentile on a
subject examination may
.
.
receive academic credit for
that subject at Augsburg
College. Additional information about CLEP tests is
available from the Office of
the Registrar.
Departmental
Comprehensive Exams
These are available for students
to use in obtaining credit for
previous learning if the
following conditions are met:
There is a departmental
instrument available for the
subject area in question.
There is a faculty member
designated by the department to administer the
exam.
The registrar approves the
student's request to take the
exam. Credit for departmental exams is available on
a passlno credit basis only,
and there is a charge per
exam of one-half of tuition
for a full course credit.
The Portfolio Assessment
Program
This is a credit assessment
alternative in which a faculty
team completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio
submitted by the student. The
faculty team is composed of
two faculty members from
.
fields of study directly related
to the student's previous
learning. Students who wish to
prepare a portfolio of previous
learning for credit assessment
should consult the Office of
the Registrar. In completing
the evaluation of a student's
previous learning, the faculty
team applies the following
criteria:
There is documentable
evidence of a cognitive
component in the previous
learning experience that
involved prescribed and/or
systematic study of content
material found within liberal
arts course work.
The learning has been objectively verified by individuals
in addition to the presenting
student.
The learning lends itself to
both qualitative and quantitative measurement.
The learning relates well to
the student's educational
goals.
The learning and skills
involved are current and
could be used at the present
time.
Students may apply for the
credit assessment process after
completing at least four course
credits of academic work at
Augsburg College with a
cumulative Augsburg GPA of
at least 2.5. It is strongly
recommended that the process
not be used when four or
fewer courses remain for graduation. There is an application
deposit to initiate the credit
assessment process and a
charge for each semester
credit applied to the student's
transcript if credit is approved.
Transcript credit will be
granted on the basis of
semester credits, and the total
number of credits granted will
be divided by four to determine the number of course
credits applied to graduation.
These credits will be recorded
with the course number of
APL 2xx. Application of this
credit toward the Liberal Arts
Perspective requirements,
upper division requirements,
and academic majors and
minors may be subsequently
addressed by the associate
academic dean in response to
a formal request by the
student.
Maximum Credit Accepted
for Previous Learning
While Augsburg College
recognizes the validity of
learning that takes place
outside the traditional classroom, this learning must be
I
.
.
placed in the context of formal
study in campus-based liberal
arts courses. Therefore,
Augsburg places a maximum
of eight course credits (about
one-fourth of a baccalaureate
degree) on transcript credit
that is obtained through
previous experiential learning.
In compiling the eight courses
of credit for previous experiential learning, the student
may use any combination of
assessment processes available
in the APL program: CLEP
exams, departmental exams,
and credit granted through
portfolio assessment.
Lifetime SportsAssessment of Previous
Learning (APL) Program
Students in the Weekend
College may complete one of
the two required graduation
skills of Lifetime Sports
through the APL process. The
Lifetime Sports graduation
skills are non-academic
courses and no credit is earned
by their completion; however,
fulfillment of two Lifetime
Sports is necessary to graduate. There is a fee for each
Lifetime Sport completed by
APL. Additional information
about Lifetime Sports APL is
available from the Weekend
College Office.

ACCOUNTING-ACC
The major in accounting
prepares students for professional careers in a wide
variety of accounting-related
positions. This major has two
tracks: General Accounting
and Professional Accounting.
The General Accounting
specialization is adequate for a
wide variety of positions. The
Professional Accounting track
includes two specializations:
public accounting and
managerial accounting. The
public accounting specialization is recommended for
positions with CPA firms. The
managerial accounting specialization is recommended for
positions with large or rapidlygrowing companies.
The two professional specializations relate to two
professional designations: the
CPA and the CMA. A CPA
(Certified Public Accountant)
focuses on external reporting;
a CMA (Certified Management
Accountant) focuses on
internal reporting. The public
accounting specialization
includes the materials emphasized on the CPA exam; the
managerial specialization
includes the materials emphasized on the CMA exam.
Designations have an experience requirement in addition
to passing the national exam.
Under the rules of the
Minnesota State Board of
Accountancy, accounting
majors in the public accounting
specialization are qualified to
sit for the CPA examination
during their last semester.
Accounting Core:
14 courses are required for
this major (an exception to
the 13-course limitation):
(It is recommended that
students take the courses in

ART, STUDI-ART
A liberal arts college like
Augsburg is an ideal setting
for the study of art because it
provides a constant possibility
for the interaction of ideas,
disciplines, and attitudes. At
Augsburg, art study is further
enhanced by associations with
a significant number of art
galleries and museums in the
Twin Cities area.
Hundreds of specific careers
exist in the general area of art,
such as teaching in the public
schools and colleges,
ceramics, interior design,
photography, film and video
work, painting, gallery and
museum work, and design.

COMMUNICATIONSPC
Our quality of life, both
personally and professionally,
depends in large part upon the
quality of our communication.
A communication major at
Augsburg is designed to
enhance understanding of
communication in a variety of
contexts and to improve
communication skills.
Since careers in communication demand a broad
educational background, the
department strongly encour-
ages a second major or two
minors in fields such as business, economics, English,
history, international relations,
political science, psychology,
religion, social work, sociology, or theatre arts.
SPC 351
Argumentation
The Augsburg communication
major focuses on competency
in both speech and writing as
well as effective use of media.
Since the study and practice of
communication is grounded in
both the humanities and the
social sciences, majors are
encouraged to include such
related subjects as aesthetics,
ethics; philosophy, logic, literature, statistics, and research
methods in their programs.
SPC 355
Small Group Communication
All communication majors
must complete a core group of
seven required courses, supplemented by five electives in one

Licensure in EnglishLanguage Arts
Students preparing to teach
English-Language Arts on the
high school level must complete,
in addition to the professional
requirements to be met within
the Department of Education, a
competency program designed to
provide a foundation in English.
Specific requirements for the
English-language arts licensure
program are outlined under the
English major in this catalog
and are subject to change per
the Department of Education.
Those who study English
believe that an intense concern
for words, ideas, and images
helps people understand who
they are and who they can
become. Writing helps us
clarify and share our thoughts.
Literature helps us contemplate the pains and joys of
human existence. Through the
study of English we see life's
complexity, experience life as
some others do, and understand better the world in
which we live and work.
English relates closely to other
majors. With the other arts,
English is concerned with the
pleasure that comes from
artistic creation and with the
contemplation of works of art.
With psychology and sociology, English is concerned
with individual and group
behavior. With philosophy,
English is interested in ideas
and the relation between
meaning and language. With
science, English is interested
in discovering order and determining structures. With speech
and communication, English
studies the effective use of
language. With history and the
other social sciences and
humanities, English studies the
way people have acted and
thought at different times and
indifferent cultures.

prerequisite for a lower
division literature course.
Prerequisite for an upper
division literature course is ENG
245 or consent of the instructor.
Minor:
Five courses above ENG 111
including ENG 245; an upper
division literature course; and
an additional writing course.
History is to society what
memory is to an individual; it
brings to a civilization an
understanding of its identity.
The distinguished medievalist
J.R. Strayer expressed it this
way: "No community can
survive and no institution can
function without constant
reference to past experience.
We are ruled by precedents
fully as much as by laws,
which is to say that we are
ruled by the collective
memory of the past. It is the
memory of common experiences which makes scattered
individuals into a community."
The English Placement Test:
A writing sample is required
of students to determine their
placement in an appropriate
writing class. Students who do
not show competence in
composition skills such as
stating and supporting a thesis,
organizing clearly, and
constructing paragraphs and
sentences are required to
enroll in ENG 101
Developmental Writing, where
they will receive more individual instruction than is
possible in ENG 11I Effective
Writing. These students must
pass ENG 101 Developmental
Writing before enrolling in
ENG 111 Effective Writing.
HISTORY-HIS
The study of history enables
us to deal more knowledgeably with continuity and
change in society. The
construction of an informed
sense of our past is a fundamental ingredient in
appreciating and understanding the present as well as
anticipating the future. History
majors are prepared to be
active and contributing
members of their society. The
study of history, which has long
held a major role in the liberal arts,
is an entry to elementary and
secondary education, graduate
study in several fields, and a wide
range of employment opportunities that require abilities in
communication, conceptualhtion,
and processing of information.

NURSING-NUR
The Augsburg nursing
program is designed exclusively for registered nurses
who want to increase their
opportunities in the health
care field.
The scope of nursing practice
is changing and expanding.
Nurses are being called on to
function in a variety of
settings that differ from those
in the past. Today nurses work
in hospitals, clinics, corporations, government agencies,
schools, and community organizations; some are selfemployed, running their own
businesses. Nurses provide
health care for individuals
from all cultures and socioeconomic levels throughout their
life span.
The bachelor's degree equips
nurses with a working knowledge of the biological,
physical, social, behavioral,
and nursing sciences. The
nursing program at Augsburg
also provides the educational
opportunities to increase
skills in critical thinking,
clinical investigation and
decision-making that prepare
nurses to handle challenging
new positions in today's
health care field.
Augsburg's nursing program,
leading to a Bachelor of
Science degree with a major in
nursing, is accredited by the
National League for Nursing.

PSYCHOLOGY-PSY
Psychology is an exploration
of behavior and mental
processes. As an integral part
of a liberal arts education,
psychology contributes to the
understanding of individual
and group behavior.
Psychology's scientific
method also equips students to
understand and use scientific
research and to make more
informed judgments about
claims in the popular media.
To prepare students for graduate study and work in
psychology, the major emphasizes the complementary
components of a strong foundation in research and
theoretical work with application of knowledge and skills in
coursework, research experience, and internships within
the community. The curriculum's emphasis on
problem-solving skills and
current information about
human development and interaction is also relevant to
careers in many related
settings-business, education,
social services, research, law,
government, church, and
medicine.
Faculty members in the
Department of Psychology
have varied professional
specializations-clinical,
counseling, physiological,
developmental, social, cognitive, environmental, and
industriallorganizational
psychology-as well as expertise in psychological
applications to health, law,
and public policy. Students
may tap this expertise through
a variety of learning experiences-within and outside the
classroom, with group and
individual projects, and
through association with
Augsburg's active Psychology
Club, Psi Chi Honor Society,
and faculty-student research
teams.

RELIGION-REL
Religion asks fundamental
questions of life and meaning.
Who are we as human beings?
Where did we come from?
Where did the world come
from? What do good and evil
mean in this time and place?
Students will wrestle with
these questions and with
responses from the Christian
traditions and from the
perspectives of the other major
world religions.
Through this study of religion,
students will learn to understand, appreciate, and
articulate the Christian faith,
as based in the Bible, as lived
in the Christian fellowship, as
embodied in the Christian
Church and its history, and as
interactive in the contemporary world and with other
world religions. Students will
also develop the ability to read
and interpret the Bible, other
religious texts, and various
expressions and practices of
faith so that their meaning for
human life in relation to God
becomes evident. In addition
students will develop skills for
becoming leaders in the religious communities to which
they belong and for living as
responsible citizens with
others whose religious views
and practices differ from their
own. A religion major encourages students to seek their
future in the world and/or
church through a sense of
vocation, serving as pastors,
associates in ministry, nurses,
and youth and family ministry
lay professionals in congregations, and as social service and
human resource professionals
in a wide variety of settings.

other colleges can be accepted
for Religion Department
course credit.
All majors must consult with
the department chair.
Completion of this major may
require enrollment in one or
more courses offered in an
evening weekday schedule.
Religion Minor
Five religion courses.
Note: Not all courses that meet
the Christian faith perspective
are religion courses. Only
Religion Department courses

SOCIAL WORK-SWK
The Social Work major
prepares graduates for entrylevel generalist professional
practice in the field of social
work. The program is accredited by the Council on Social
Work Education and leads to a
Bachelor of Science degree.
The program is based on a
generalist model of practice,
enabling graduates to work
with individuals, families,
groups, and communities, and
to develop and analyze social
policy. Courses within the
program utilize a student
empowerment model for
teaching and learning.

POLICY
E
It is expected that students
attend every class. If more
than one class meeting will be
missed, the student should not
register for the course. Some
faculty and courses require
100 percent attendance for a
student to earn a passing
grade. Most Weekend College
classes meet seven times
during a trimester plus Finals
Class Weekend. Some courses
meet for the entire period on
Finals Class Weekend.
Classes marked with an
asterisk (*) on the Class
Schedule require or recommend that students attend
additional class meetings, the
dates and times of which are
either listed on the course
syllabus or determined by the
class at the first meeting.
CLASSSCHEDULE
There are three trimesters in
Weekend College-fall,
winter, and spring. A calendar
of class weekends for each
trimester and a tentative
schedule of courses offered
can be found in the Weekend
College Catalog Supplement.
Many courses are offered at
least once a year; however,
since some courses are offered
in alternate years, it is important that the student review
major requirements and
course offerings with an
adviser to ensure that all
requirements can be met.
Descriptions and schedules for
courses offered in the day
schedule, January Interim,
Summer School, the Master of
Arts in Leadership, and the
Master of Social Work
programs are published in
separate publications.
NUMBERING
Courses numbered below 300
are lower division courses.
Courses numbered 300 and
above are classified as upper
division.
CREDITS
One course credit at Augsburg
is approximately equivalent to
four semester credits or six
quarter credits.
The majority of Augsburg
courses are one course credit.
Some courses in the education, health and physical
education, and music departments have .5 credit value
(one-half course) or .25 credit
value (one-quarter course).
A prerequisite is a course or a
specific skill level, e.g. Math
Placement Level, which must
be completed before the
student enrolls in a higherlevel course. Prerequisites are
listed in the course description. When a prerequisite has
not been fulfilled, a student

who desire college experience but who work or have other commitments
during the week. I t is a means by which men and women may earn a
bachelor's degree, gain skills for professio~laladvancement, prepare for
career change, or pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
The Augsburg Weekend College program is designed to meet the needs
and preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the assumption that the lnen and women who enroll in Weekend College will be
mature, self-disciplined and well-motivated adult learners who seek a
balance of classroo~nexperience and individualized study. Each course is
therefore divided into periods of concentrated on-campus study separated by time for independent study and class preparation.

weekends for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday
morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon.* Each class selected

Weekend College students may take from one to four different courses
by attending class every other weekend.

English
Those who study English believe that an intense concern for words,
ideas and images helps us understa~idwho we are and who we can
become. Writing helps us clarify and share our thoughts. Literature
helps us conte~nplatethe pains and joys of human existence. Through
English study we see life's complexity, experience life as some others do,
and understand better the world in which we live and work.
English relates closely to other majors. With the other arts, English is
concerned with the pleasure that comes from artistic creation and with
the conte~nplationof works of art. With psychology and sociology,
English is concer~ledwith individual and group behavior. With philosophy, English is interested in ideas and the relation between meaning and
language. With science, English is interested in discovering order and
deternlining structures. With speech and comm~~nications,
English
studies the effective use of language. With history and the other social
sciences and humanities, English studies the way people have acted and
thought at different times and in different cultures.
Major: Nine courses above 111, including 225; one course in American
literature; one course in Western literary tradition (271 or 272); and
three courses in British literature, one o n literature before 1660 (for
example, 331 or 438) and one that surveys a n u ~ n b e rofwriters (336,
337, 423). Majors are encouraged t o take ENG 245 early in their
college work and to co~lsulttheir departmental adviser regularly. A
student with a double major or special program that involves considerable work in the English department should also work closely with an
adviser in the department.
Note on Prerequisites: ENG 1 11 is strongly reconl~nendedbut not a
prerequisite for a Lower Division literature course. Prerequisite for an
Upper Division course is successh~lcompletion of a Lower Division
literature course or consent of the instructor.
Note: Transfer students must take at least three of their English
courses at Augsburg.
English-Language Arts Teaching Major: Ten courses, including those
listed under the major, a course in the English language, and an internship in the teaching of writing. One course must include a component
in non-Western literature. In addition, the ACTC courses Communications Skills in the English Classroo~nand Teaching Mass Media are
required. Courses in early American literature, Shakespeare, and film are
recommended. Several of the required courses, including the internship,
are not offered o n weekends. Students in this program must work with
advisers in the English Department and the Education Department in
order t o meet the professional require~nentswithin the Education Department as well as requirements in the major.
Students in this program who are transferring fro111other colleges should
consult the English Department chair soon after enrolling.

This MIS major prepares students to work in the growing field of
information management. The major combines courses and skills from
both the business and computer science majors to help students learn
about the identification, organization, analysis and processing of information in a business setting. Students should meet with their adviser as
soon as possible to plan their program.

Psychology
Psychology, with its emphasis on behavioral observatio~land data,
provides a perspective on human activities which is an integral part of
liberal education. The goal of the Psychology program is the improved
understanding of human behavior by studying how people cope with
their environment and interact with each other.
Psychologists use a variety of methods to study behavior, i~lcluding
experimentation, observation and clinical case analysis. Faculty members
in the Department of Psychology at Augsburg have varied professional
specializations which include areas such as counseling, pl~ysiological
psychology, 11uman development, personality and computer applications.
All psycl~ologymajors MUST have an adviser in the Psychology Department. The following courses in the Psycl~ologycore will be offered
when a sufficient number of students are ready for that portion of their
program: PSY 264,265, 381,493. This may delay an individual
student's ablility to complete the major in the Weekend schedule.

Religion
Augsburg College understands itself as a college of the church and it is
persuaded that the Christian faith provides an appropriate perspective
from which to undertake its educational task. The biblical faith and
tradition of the Christian Church have influenced the Western world to a
degree much greater than is sometimes recognized.
The student encounters this influence in studying language, literature,
history, values and political structures. The study of religion and
theology is intended to make such encounters more meaningful through
a better knowledge of biblical history and that of the Christian Church,
and by a larger acquaintance with tl~eologicalthougl~t. Large segments
of the earth's population live by religious concepts and ideas which are
different from those prominent in the West. The Depart~nentof Religion also seeks to introduce students to some of these major religious
traditions.

Science in Social Work degree program at Augsburg College is built on a
solid liberal arts foundation, on theory-based training, and on professionally directed field experiences. As important, social work education
at Augsburg is built on an appreciatio~lfor the needs, concerns, and
values of the i~ldividualsand groups who constitute today's multicultural society. The Social Work major in Augsburg Weekend College

Mathematics Placement Group Requirements
MIS 1 7 5 , 2 7 9 , 4 7 9 ; CSC 170,210; and all 100-level MAT courses
have Math Placement Group requirements. Since all majors in Business,
Economics or Management Information Systems must take MIS 279,
all students in these areas must have at least MPG 111. Other specific
courses such as SOC 365 and PHY 1 0 3 also have MPG requirements.
Please refer t o thc course description for ally given course t o determine
if there is an MPG requircd by the department. Some instructors
require MPGs in courses they teach. This should be noted in the
syllabi for their course(s).
The Math Placement Requirement can be met by transfer courses,
Augsburg coursework or the Math Placement Assessment. This Assessment is given at New Student Orientation each trimester, or by appointment during the academic calendar year. (The Math Department may
disregard math courses talten more than five years ago, or may choose to
lapse an MPG gi\len more than five years ago.)
Dean's List
The Dean's List is co~npiledafter each semester, listing students whose
grade point average for a semester is 3.5 or better, based on a minimum
of two full courses, or equivalent, graded on the traditional grading
system, with no i~lcompletesin courses offered for credit.
Academic Progress, Probation and Dismissal
The College requires that students maintain the following cumulative
grade point averages (GPA):
Freshman - a student who has taken fewer than 7 courses
cumulative GPA of 1.6 or higher
Sophomore - a student who has taken fewer than 16 courses
cumulative GPA of 1.7 or higher
a student who has taken fewer than 2 5 courses
Junior cumulative GPA of 1.9 or higher
a student who has taken 25 o r more courses
Senior cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher.
It should be noted that a ~ninimumGPA of 2.0 is required for graduation with certain majors requiring a higher minimum GPA.
Students whose academic acl~ievementfalls below these guidelines will
either be placed 011 scl~olasticprobation at the end of the term, o r will
be continued on probation, or will be dismissed from the College. In
addition, a freshman who receives two zero grades or a sophomore who
receives three zero grades will be considered for probation or dismissal.
However, dismissal fro111 the College is not automatic. Each case is
reviewed by the Committee on Student Standing. Evidence of the
student's coln~nit~nent
t o academic progress is the major consideration
in deciding whether or not t o dismiss a student. Students who have a
poor academic record may be strongly advised t o withdraw before the
end of a term. Those on probation who voluntarily withdraw from the
College, as well as those who are dismissed, must have special permission
t o re-enroll.
Students may be removed from probation when the cumulative GPA
reaches the minimum levels stated above. St~tdentsplaced on probation
as freshmen for having earned two zero grades may be removed from
probation if their classification changes t o sophomore, if they have not
earned additional zero grades, and if their cumulative GPA reaches 1.7.
Students placed on probation as sophomores for having earned three
zero grades may be removed from probation if their classification
changes to junior and their cumulative GPA reaches 1.9.
The College reserves the right to dismiss any student who does not meet
the guidelines stated above. Once a student is dismissed, he or she may
appeal the decision within 10 days t o the Conlmittee on Student
Standing.
Attendance Policy
It is expected that students attend every class. If a student knows she/he
will miss more than one class meeting, she/he should not register for
the course. Some faculty/courses require 100 percent attendance for a
student to earn a passing grade.
Most Weekend College classes meet seven times during a trimester plus
Finals Class Weekend. Some courses meet for the entire period on Finals
Class Weekend. Classes marked with an asterisk ( * ) on the Class Schedule require additional class meetings, the dates and times of which are
either listed on the course syllabus or determined by the class at the first
meeting. Depending on the course, these additional meetings are either
required or optional.
Department Course Limits
Augsburg College's graduation requirements allow a maximum of 1 3
courses from each department except in certain approved majors (Social
Work, Nursing). Business Administration, Economics and Management
Information Systems are considered different departments for graduation
requirement purposes.
Grading Procedures
Evaluation and Grading
Student achievement in courses is measured primarily by final examina
tions. Shorter tests, written papers, oral reports, and other types of
evaluation are also used.
Most courses are offered with grading options - traditional grading on a
4.0 to 0.0 scale or the Pass/No Credit system, in which P means a grade
of 2.0 or better and N means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0.
Students are cautioned to use the P/N grade option with care since some
graduate and professional schools do not look favorably on a large
number of P-graded courses, or rank each as a "C". Transfer students are
cautioned that P-graded courses do not count in the requirement that 14
traditionally graded courses be earned at Augsburg in order to be considered for graduation with distinction. See P/N limitations under
Graduation Requirements in the Augsburg College general catalog.
Certain courses are offered on one grading system only. Sociology 265 is
graded only on the P/N grading system and some education courses are
graded only on the P/N system or only on the traditional system.
English 111 is graded P or N, or 2.0-4.O/N. Some other courses are
graded only P, 1.O, N. Lifetime Sports are graded P/O.O.
In courses where this is a choice, students will be graded on the traditional system unless they indicate on their registration that they wish to
use the P/N grading option. Any changes in choice of gkading system
must be made according to the dates published each term. A fee is
charged for any changes made after registration.
Explanation of Grades
Number grades are used with these definitions:
4.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence.
3.5
3.0 Achieves above basic course standards.
2.5
2.0 Meets basic standards for the course.
1.5
1.0 Performance below basic course standards.
0.5
0.0 Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course).
Grade of P (Pass) or N (No credit) are not computed in the grade point
average. A grade of P represents work at or above the 2.0 level; N
represents work at the 1.5 or below level.
An incomplete grade may be given only in the case of an extreme
emergency. To receive it, a student must file an Application for Incomplete form with the Committee on Student Standing stating the reasons
for the request, the plan and date for removing it, and comments from
the instructor. If permission is granted, the incomplete must be removed
during the following semester, or it becomes the grade submitted by the
teacher along with the incomplete.
Internships, independent studies, and directed studies may sometimes
last longer than one term. When this is the case, they must be completed
by the grading deadlines within one year from the beginning of the first
term of registration. A grade of X is given by the instructor to indicate
that the study is extended. It is expected that students given X extensions will continue to communicate with their instructors and demonstrate that satisfactory progress is being maintained. A final grade will be
issued at the end of the term in which the work is completed and
evaluated (but not longer than one year). An instructor reserves the
discretion of not giving an X where satisfactory progress is not demonstrated. Withdrawal from college, or dropping these continued courses
will terminate their registration. Under this circumstance, a registration
as 1X by the student would be necessary if done during registration
periods within one year of initial registration; if done after one year a new
registration would be necessary.
Auditing Courses
Students who wish to take courses without credit or grade may do so by
registering for Audit (V). The charge for auditing a course is listed
under Fees and Payment Schedule. Students who audit a course should
confer with the instructor within two weeks of the beginning of the term
to determine expectations, attendance and any other requirement. If
expectations have been met, the course will be listed on the transcript as
having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the course will
be listed a grade of W (Withdrawn).
Grade Point Average
The grade point average (GPA) is based on final grades for all work at
Augsburg. It does not include credit and grade points for work transferred from other colleges. Courses taken on the P/N grading option
are recorded, but not computed in the GPA.
Classification
Students are classified in August and at the end of fall and winter terms as
follows:
Sophomores - 7 courses completed with at least 14 grade points.
Juniors - 16 courses completed with at least 32 grade points.
Seniors - 25 courses completed with at least 50 grade points.
Withdrawal from College
Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are registered,
since this results in a failing grade on the official record. Cancellation of
courses or withdrawal from college must be done in the Registrar's
Office. Withdrawal from college cannot occur during final examination
weekend unless a petition is approved by the Student Standing Committee.
Withdrawal from college and resulting adjustments in accounts are effective
as of the date the completed Withdrawal From College form is returned to
the Registrar's Office.
Graduation with Distinction
Graduation with distinction is determined as follows:
Summa cum laude - 3.8 to 4.0 cumulative GPA
Magna cum laude - 3.6 up to but not including 3.8 cumulative GPA
Cum laude - 3.3 up to but not including 3.6 cumulative GPA
T o qualify for graduation with distinction, transfer students must have
completed two years (14 traditionally graded courses) of work at Augsburg.
Assessment of Previous Learning (APL)
Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in
many life situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit
recognition within the disciplines that compose the academic programs
of a liberal arts college. The APL program (Assessment of Previous
Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous
learning, other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward
the completion of a bachelor's degree.
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit
recognition at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two
essential criteria: (1) it is relevant to coursework in a field of study within
the Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and (2) it can be objectively
demonstrated either by comprehensive examination or committee
evaluation. The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by
which students may have their previous learning assessed for credit
recognition:
CLEP (College Level Examination Program)
Students who achieve acceptable scores in CLEP exams may receive
academic credit in August College. CLEP exams are available in a variety
of general and specific subject areas. For more information, contact
Weekend College Admissions (330.1792) or the regional CLEP center
at the University of Minnesota (624-3323).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and d o
not have transcript evidence of completed work may request a departmental assessment of previous learning. This will most often include an
examination that covers the essential components of the course involved.
For more information, contact the Registrar's Ofice (330.1036).
CAI? (Credit Assessment Process)
This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee
completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the
student. Informal meetings and consultation are provided for students
who wish to prepare a portfolio of previous learning for credit assessment. Students may apply for CAP after completing at least four courses
of academic work at Augsburg College with a cumulative GPA of at least
2.5. For more information, contact the Registrar's Office (330-1036).

History
I
I
I
Augsburg College was founded in 1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin, and
moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The name Augsburg College and
Seminary changed in 1963 when the Lutheran Free Church merged
with The American Lutheran Church.
Location
Augsburg's 23-acre campus is in the heart of the Twin Cities metropolitan area, only blocks from downtown Minneapolis and the
intersection of Interstate Highways 9 4 and 35W. Adjacent to the
campus are the Riverside Medical Center, the West Bank campus of
the University of Minnesota and the Mississippi River parkways.
Campus
Skyways, tunnels and elevators provide accessible connection between
1 0 of the 1 5 major buildings - student housing towers, College
Center, main academic and administrative halls, the Library, Music
Hall and Foss Center for Worship, Drama and Communication.
Accessibility
We have made a major effort to become one of the most accessible
campuses in the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any
of 10 major buildings without going outside. In addition to building
changes, we have a program to increase awareness and
provide extra help for students with disabilities.
Church Affiliation
Augsburg is a college of The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. About 51 percent of the students are Lutheran, 1 5 percent other
Protestant and 1 5 percent Roman Catholic. Several other affiliations
are represented among students and faculty.

the power to influence policy, curriculum and procedures
within the individual school and the school district. It means
teachers having responsibility for instruction of children,

influence what happens in schools.''

As practitioners, teachers are
concerned with enhancing their
teaching skills and their
students' learning. As
professionals, teachers are
increasingly responsible for and
concerned about educ;ational
decision-making. Augsburg
College offers a program that
addresses this dual focus of
classroom practitioner and
teacher leader. The Master of
Arts in Education-Leadership
(MEL) program offers opportunities to increase knowledge and
skills (1) for teaching today and
(2) for leading education into
the future. This program values
the role that good teachers play
in the lives of students and operates from the belief that teachers
can exercise leadership, inside
and outside the classroom,
without relinquishing the role of
teacher .
The Minnesota Board of
Teaching, in its requirements for
teacher licensure programs,
acknowledges the importance of
developing teachers who have
the knowledge and skill to act as
leaders, or change agents.
Beginning teachers, however,
often feel overwhelmed with
issues of classroom practice;
thus, it is logical to offer a
program which includes a
"change agent" focus at the
degree level sought by veteran
teachers. The MEL program
incorporates an educational
leadership focus alongside the
more traditional classroom practice focus to address the
expanded role teachers play in
today's schools .
As a part of this program you
will:
• Study issues of classroom
practice, including teaching
and learning, creativity, and
multi-cultural ism;
• Gain specific know ledge of
educational institutions and
processes;
• Examine who and what leadership is about and explore
ways to exercise leadership
within your workplace;
• Develop expertise in an area
of personal interest through an
individualized, capstone
research project.

~ADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT MODEL
..
.,
The MEL program promotes
leadership as a process which
I) inspires cooperation among
people, 2) promotes productivity
within and beyond the educational organization, and
3) works toward growth and
change within the educational
organization. Individuals in
leadership roles identify three
key attributes of leadership: a
sense of vision, the ability to
persuade, and the ability to
direct action. These attributes
form the framework for the
Leadership Developm~nt Model

Leadership Courses
(4.5-6.5 course credits)
These courses are required of
students pursuing the MEL
degree and are not available to
students who are not enrolled in

leadership courses provide
students with a supportive framework within which to investigate
leadership and the institution of
education, to consider themselves as leaders, and to develop
expertise in a topic of choice.

These courses are available to
degree seeking students but are
not available to non-degree
seeking students. For students
wanting to explore issues of
leadership and organizational
change within a broader context,
the MEL program will allow up
to two electives from the Master
of Arts in Leadership program.
These courses become part of
the Focus II component of the
MEL program. See the Master
of Arts in Leadership program
bulletin for courses.
Some students express a theoretical and/or empirical interest in
the study of education and/or
leadership and identify topics
which lend themselves to a
more traditional thesis project.
An example of a thesis project
would be a comparison of the
effects of two instructional
strategies on student learning.
The connection to leadership
comes as the thesis writer
considers how to share his/her
expertise with others.

P rnjed:
At, or near, the completion of
the course work for the MEL
program, students are required
to develop and carry out a study
or project related to education
and leadership. The focus can be
on an issue in education with
opportunities for personal
leadership, or it can focus on
leadership itself within the
context of education. This
research-based capstone
experience affords students the
opportunity to become an expert
in an area of personal interest as
well as to "tie together" what
has been learned throughout the
MEL program. Students have
the option to select either a
Thesis or a Leadership
Application Project. The decision as to which of these
alternatives is selected depends
Other students express interest
in an applied project which
includes the development and
implementation of an idea
related to education. These
students find the Leadership
Application Project to be the
appropriate culminating
experience. An example of a
leadership application project is
one which includes the development and implementation of a
peer mediation training program
at the middle school level.
Leadership issues emerge as
part of the training of students
and staff in the use of the
program.
In both capstone experiences,
research forms the foundation
for decision-making and
direction.

1 he most important key
to developing a collective will to
overcome many of our commonplace problems is leadership.
Certainly leadership is characterized by more than knowing. It is
also more than acting. It is ultimately defined in coalescing others
to act when they otherwise might not have. Leadership, including
teacher leadership, is ultimately proven in the efforts of others to
attempt to scale heights of human achievement and plunge depths
of human caring not otherwise envisioned."

Introduction to the Master
of Arts in EducationLeadership
Developing Leaders for Education
The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership is a program for
educators who value and enjoy their direct contact with
students and want to retain that focus in their careers. It is a
program that at the outset promotes the importance of teaching.
It is also a program that values the roles educators can play as
leaders in their places of work.
People who become part of this Master of Arts program will
have opportunities to:
• Examine what '1eadership" is and who leads;
• Explore who they are as leaders, both within an educational
setting and outside of it;
• Gain specific knowledge of education and leadership that
can support their development; and
• Develop skills that can increase the effectiveness of their
leadership.
This program values the role that good educators play in the
lives of students and operates from the belief that educators
need to exercise leadership within the workplace without
relinquishing the role of teacher.
Accommodating the Full-Time Work Schedule
The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership program is
designed to meet the needs and preferences of working adults.
TI1e program is based on the assumption that the men and
women who enroll are employed, self-disciplined and wellmotivated individuals who seek a balance of classroom experience, group interaction and individual study. Each course is,
therefore, divided into periods of study, group efforts and class
preparation. To accommodate this format for learning, each
class meets on alternate Saturdays for three-and-one-half hours
and alternate Thursday evenings for one-and-one-half hours.
Leadership Development Model
The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership program promotes
leadership as a process which 1) inspires cooperation among
people who must compete for limited resources, 2) promotes
productivity within and beyond the educational organization,
and 3) works toward progress within the educational community. To accomplish this, individuals aspiring to positions of
leadership must possess three key attributes: a sense of vision,
the ability to persuade and the ability to direct action. Th ese
abilities and awarenesses, outlined in the diagram on page 5,

serve as specific outcomes for the Master of Arts in EducationLeadership. Augsburg's model of leadership development is
designed to assess, promote, enhance and refine these capabilities within the individual.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of the Master of Arts in EducationLeadership is participation in a community of learners. Leaming can be enhanced when the student is involved in a stable
community that provides opportunity and encouragement for
active participation both in and out of the classroom. This
community will be enriched by the presence of men and
women who bring to the program a variety of life and work
experiences.
-. '
~·
..
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg
encourages graduate students to make use of college facilities
such as the library, meeting rooms and the Christensen Center;
to take the opportunity to share meals and coffee breaks; to
participate in optional lunchtime seminars; and to attend other
college activities such as music and dramatic presentations and
athletic events.
Leadership Practicum
Master of Arts in Education-Leadership students enroll in a half
course called "Leadership Practicum." Students are required to
enroll in this professional assessment and development course
for six terms during their graduate work at Augsburg. Upon
completion of the entire practicum sequence, students receive a
half-course credit.
Early in the program, a major component of the practicum is a
full day assessment to determine students' abilities and potential relative to each of the outcomes of the Leadership Development Model. Assessment instruments include paper and p_encil
exercises and simulation and group experiences. Following the
assessment, students meet individually with a trained assessor
who provides guidance in personal goal setting and in the
creation of a professional development plan focused on dimensions of leadership.
In subsequent terms, "Leadership Practicum" includes workshops designed to meet the needs of students in the following
areas: communication skills, self-assessment measures, group
processes and other professional development topics as identified and designed by participants. Also included is the opportunity for participants to develop and monitor a leadership
project within their workplace.
Curriculum Design
The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership is composed of ten
course credits composed of eight full credit and four half credit
courses. Each course uses a variety of learning techniques
appropriate to adult learners including case study, debate,
written and oral seminar presentations and small group
activity. These courses develop targeted leadership abilities and
understandings as a boundary crossing endeavor in need of the
leadership skills and visions of people from all levels of an
organization.
The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership will provide
opportunities for students to:
•

repeated. Only the credits and grades earned the second time
are counted in the grade point average.
Attendance Policy
Because leadership issues are presented, discussed and analyzed

to one's classmates and course instructor. Irregular attendance
may, at the discretion of the instructor, adversely affect one's
grade.
Academic Policies
Academic Probation and Dismissal Policies

would be outlined at that time. If a second grade of N is received,
the student may be dismissed from the program by the Master of
Arts in Education-Leadership Program Committee. Students
may also be dismissed by the Master of Arts in EducationLeadership Program Committee for behavior detrimental to the
program, such as a gross violation of college policy (as published
in the Student Guide). Dismissal would occur only after established procedures were followed.
Credit for Prior Education
Transfer credits will be evaluated on an individual basis. The
only courses that will be considered for transfer credit are those
whose course content is comparable to those in the Master of
Arts in Education-Leadership program. No more than two
courses will be accepted for transfer credit.
Credit and Contact Hours
Each full credit graduate course in the Master of Arts in
Education-Leadership program is the equivalent of four
semester credits or six quarter credits. Students meet in class a
total of 31.5 hours and are responsible for a significant amount
of individual study and preparation.
Enrollment Policy/Leaves of Absence
Students may take either one or two courses per term plus
Leadership Practicum. Enrolling in two courses per term
enables a student to complete the program in under two years.

Those who hope to lead had better understand both rationally and
intuitively the people who might be their followers, and the society
in which they are embedded. They had better comprehend the
values of our common culture, past and present, know how our
political and economic systems work, and understand how and
why science has changed the world ... Leaders need specialists as
advisers and staff members. But leaders themselves are generalists ... At higher levels of leadership they cannot achieve their full
potential without considerable breadth of knowledge. Only this
way can they shape the contexts for decisions where expert
knowledge is used.

6Jntroduction
Developing Leaders for
Organizations and the Community
The Master of Arts in Leadership responds to the leadership
development needs of profit and not-for-profit organizations.
While different in structure and purpose, most organizations
seek leaders with the following qualities:
• a vision which is ethically and morally responsible,
extending beyond immediate concerns;
• an understanding of how change occurs and affects the
immediate environment;
• a sensitivity to the complex problems organizations face,
and an ability to achieve solutions consistent with an
organization's mission;
"' the ability to motivate and inspire individuals and groups to
work toward a common goal; and
• the ability to effectively represent the organization both
internally and externally.
The Master of Arts in Leadership provides a means by which
individuals aspiring to enhance their leadership skills may
discover and refine these and other abilities and awarenesses
fundamental to effective leadership.
Accommodating the Full-Time Work Schedule
The Master of Arts in Leadership program is designed to meet
the needs and preferences of working adults. The program is
based on the assumption that the men and women who enroll
are employed, self-disciplined and well-motivated individuals
who seek a balance of classroom experience, group interaction
and individual study. Each course is, therefore, divided into
periods of study, group efforts and class preparation. To accommodate this format for learning, each class meets on alternate Saturdays for three-and-one-half hours and alternate
Thursday evenings for one-and-one-half hours.
Leadership Development Model
The Master of Arts in Leadership program promotes leadership as a process which 1) inspires cooperation among people
who must compete for limited resources, 2) promotes productivity within and beyond the organization, and 3) works
toward progress. To accomplish this, individuals aspiring to
positions of leadership must possess three key attributes: a
sense of vision, the ability to persuade and the ability to direct
action. Underlying these attributes is a broad range of abilities
and awarenesses. These abilities and awarenesses, outlined in
the diagram on page 7, serve as specific outcomes for the
Master of Arts in Leadership. Augsburg's model of leadership
development is designed to assess, promote, enhance and
refine these capabilities within the individual.

Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of the Master of Arts in Leadership is
participation in a community of learners. Learning can be.
enhanced when the student is involved in a stable community
that provides opportunity and encouragement for active
participation both in and out of the classroom. This community will be enriched by the presence of men and women who
bring to the program a variety of work and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg
encourages graduate students to make use of college facilities
such as the library, meeting rooms and the Christensen Center;
to take the opportunity to share meals and coffee breaks; to
participate in optional lunchtime seminars; and to attend other
college activities such as music and dramatic presentations and
athletic events.
Leadership Practicum
. .,
.· .·.·
Master of Arts in Leadership students enroll in a half course
called "Leadership Practicum." Students are required to enroll
in this professional assessment and development course for six
terms during their graduate work at Augsburg. Upon completion of the entire practicum, students receive a half course
credit. In each term, specific activities related to the practicum
are scheduled.
Early in the program a major component of this practicum is a
full-day professional assessment to determine students' abilities and potential relative to each of the outcomes of the Leadership Development Model (see page 7). Assessment instruments include paper and pencil exercises and simulation and
group experiences. Following the assessment students meet
individually with a trained assessor who provides guidance in
personal goal-setting and in the creation of a professional development plan or "blueprint."
In subsequent terms "Leadership Practicum" includes workshops designed to meet the needs of the students in the following areas: communication skills, self-assessment measures,
group processes, and other professional development topics
identified by graduate students and staff.
.Liurriculum Design
Master of Arts in Leadership students are required to complete
12 courses and a thesis. Each course unites two or more liberal
arts disciplines, encourages pursuit of the designated outcomes, and uses a variety of learning techniques appropriate to
adult learners. Instructional techniques are varied, such as
case study, debate, written and oral presentation and group
activity. The e techniques, which have had demon trat d
succes in advan d courses, develop targeted leadership
abilities and understandings. Continual reinforcement occurs
as students employ these capacities in multiple courses.
Students are encouraged to see abilities and understandings as
cross-disciplinary and to see content areas as integrated. The
very form of the program reflects the view that the world in
which we operate is complex and that dealing with it successfully requires well-developed integrative ability.
Required Courses Include:
ML 500
ML 510
ML 590
ML 591
ML 592
Leadership Practicum (a half course which
spans six trimesters)
Foundations of Leadership (to be taken during
one of the first three trimesters)
Thesis-Research Seminar I
Thesis-Research Seminar II (These two seminars
are to be taken in a student's last two consecutive
terms.)
Thesis Consultation (a half course to be taken
simultaneously with ML 591 and in the term in
which the thesis is completed)
Students are required to complete eight additional

point average must be restored in order for a student to. be
removed from probation. If a student receives a grade of N in
a course, the student must petition successfully with the
Master of Arts in Leadership Committee before being permitted to continue in the program. A plan for the student to follow would be outlined at that time. If the cumulative grade
point average again falls below 3.0, the student may be dismissed from the program by the Master of Arts in Leadership
Committee. Students also may be dismissed by the Master of
Arts in Leadership Committee for behavior detrimental to the
program such as a gross violation of college policy (as published in the Student Guide). Dismissal would occur only after
established procedures were followed.
Credit for Prior Education, Training and Experience
Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the courses in the Master
of Arts in Leadership program, it is unlikely that courses taken
elsewhere may be substituted for a particular course in the curriculum. Students may petition the Master of Arts in Leadership Committee for approval of any variation in the curriculum including the transfer of credit or the receipt of credit for
other training.
Credit and Contact Hours
Each graduate course in the Master of Arts in Leadership program is the equivalent of four semester credits or six quarter
credits. Students meet in class a total of 30 hours and are
responsible for a significant amount of individual study and
preparation.
Enrollment Policy/Leaves of Absence
Students may take either one or two courses each trimester.
Enrolling in two courses per trimester enables a student to
complete the program in two years. All students are required
to complete the program within four years. Extensions beyond
four years will be considered on the basis of petition to the
Master of Arts in Leadership Committee. Students who leave
the program for more than one term must request a leave of
absence in writing from the Master of Arts in Leadership
Committee.
Last Date to Withdraw from Class
The last date on which students may withdraw from a class
and receive a "W" on their records is noted on pp. 4 and 5.

m inancial Aid
In a number of ways, students may receive assistance in meeting Graduate Program costs. Enrollment in two courses per
trimester allows the student to be classified as full-time. One
course is considered half-time enrollment. The Office of Student Financial Services (330-1046) assists students in assessing
financial aid eligibility and offers financial aid from available
alternatives, including the following:
Augsburg Tuition Grant
Augsburg College may provide grants and scholarships to
graduate students who show academic potential and have financial need.
Funded Scholarships
Augsburg actively pursues outside funding for special scholarships. The availability of such scholarships enables the participation of individuals of limited financial means as well as individuals working for volunteer agencies and other organizations not likely to provide tuition reimbursement.
Company Tuition Assistance Programs
Many companies, agencies and corporations offer full or
partial tuition assistance to employees who participate in
work-related or degree-related college programs. Augsburg
College provides several payment plans by which employees
may handle tuition reimbursement.
Bureau of Indian Affairs, Tribal and State Indian
Scholarships
American Indian students who meet federal, state or tribal
requirements may apply for these scholarships. Indian grants
generally supplement other sources of financial aid. For assistance in application please contact Augsburg's American
Indian Support Program Director at 330-1138 or your tribal
agency.

~TRODUCTION
Developing Leaders for
Organizations and the
Community
The Master of Arts in
Leadership (MAL) program
responds to the leadership
development needs of both
profit and not-for-profit organizations. While different in
structure and purpose, most
organizations seek leaders with
the following qualities: a vision
that is ethically and morally
responsible, extending beyond
immediate concerns; an understanding of how change occurs
and affects the immediate environment; a sensitivity to the
complex problems organizations
face and an ability to achieve
solutions consistent with an
organization's mission; the
ability to motivate and inspire
individuals and groups to work
toward a common goal; and the
ability to effectively represent
the organization both internally
and externally.
The MAL program provides a
means by which individuals
may discover and refine these
and other abilities fundamental
to effective leadership.
Accommodating the FullTime Work Schedule
Designed to meet the needs and
preferences of working adults,
the MAL program is based on
the assumption that the students
who enroll are career-oriented,
self-disciplined and well-
motivated individuals, seeking a
balance of classroom experience, group interaction and
individual study. Most courses
are organized as seminars with
the opportunity for discussion
and dialogue. Classes meet on
alternate Saturdays for threeand-one-half hours and alternate
Thursday evenings for one-andone-half hours.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of the
MAL program is participation
in a community of learners
gathered together on the
Augsburg campus. This community is enriched by the students
with a variety of work and life
experiences. To facilitate
community interaction, students
are encouraged to make use of
the Augsburg library, computer
labs and Christensen Center.
Individual Professional
Development
An important component of
the MAL program is the
professional assessment.
The assessment can help
students to identify leadership
skills and preferred work and
learning styles. Nationally
recognized test instruments are
used; based on the results,
students are encouraged to
create personalized goals
and plans to strengthen areas
that may require further
development. MAL Practica
are designed to meet student
needs in areas such as interpersonal communication,
approaches to career change,
coping with workplace
problems, time management
and other issues related to
leadership and professional
development.
~ADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT MODEL
The MAL program promotes
leadership as a process that
1) inspires cooperation among
people who must compete for
limited resources, 2) promotes
productivity within and beyond
the organization, and 3) works
toward progress for the
individual and the organization.
AUGSBURG
Leadership Development Model,
that serve as specific outcomes
for the MAL program.
Augsburg's model of leadership
development is designed to
assess, promote, enhance and
refine these capabilities within
the individual.
To accomplish this, individuals
aspiring to positions of leadership must possess three key
attributes: a sense of vision,
the ability to persuade and the
ability to direct action.
Underlying these attributes is a
broad range of abilities and
awareness, outlined in the
Leadership

(This model was developed by Augsburg Faculty Graduate Advisory Committee, 1985-87.)
~RICULUM DESIGN
There are two ways to complete
the MAL degree. In the
Thesis/Leadership Application
Project (Thesis/LAP) Option,
students complete a thesis or a
major leadership application
project and 10.5 credits. In the
Non-Thesis Option, students
must complete 11 credits, two
papers, but no thesis.
Augsburg uses a course system
rather than a credit system in its
curriculum. An Augsburg
course is equivalent to four
semester credits or six quarter
credits. Each course includes
two or more liberal arts disciplines, encourages pursuit of the
designated outcomes and uses a
variety of learning techniques
appropriate to adult learners.
Instructional techniques include
case studies, debate, written and
oral presentations, and group
activity. These techniques
develop targeted leadership
abilities and understanding.
Students are encouraged to see
abilities and understandings as
cross-disciplinary and to view
content areas as integrated. The
program reflects the view that
the world in which we operate is
complex and that dealing with it
successfully requires welldeveloped integrative abilities.
Thesis/LAP Option
Students who select the
Thesis/LAP Option are required
to develop and carry out an indepth study of some aspect of
leadership or of a leadershiprelated topic. This researchbased study gives the student
the opportunity to "tie together"
what has been learned from the
study of leadership and courserelated activities.
The principal distinction between
the Thesis and the Leadership
Application Project lies in their
underlying orientation. A Thesis
has a more theoretical orientation, while the Leadership
Application Project is based on
practical application. Both
require similar rigor and preparation. For either alternative, the
student must register for ML 592,
593 and 594. Differences
between these two options will
be explored in ML 514 Research
Methods and in ML 593
Leadership Research Seminar I.
Students who do not complete
their Thesis or Leadership
Application Project while
enrolled in ML 594 Leadership
Research Seminar II are
required to pay a continuation fee.
Non-Thesis Option
An alternative to the thesis is the
successful completion of two
major papers, as described
below. The first of these papers
will be written in conjunction
with ML 580. A student must
get a grade of 3.5 or higher on
this major paper to complete the
Non-Thesis requirement. If the
grade for the paper is below 3.5,
the student will revise the paper
WuRRICULUM DESIGN
Elective Courses for
Both Options: (at least
7.0 course credits)
and submit it to the MAL faculty
panel for review and approval.
The second paper will be written
while enrolled in ML 597 NonThesis Independent Project. A
student must get a grade of 3.5
or higher on this paper; it will
then be submitted to the MAL
faculty panel for review and
approval. The judgment
of the MAL faculty panel is
the final one. The independent
research projects approved
each year will be presented in
a special annual colloquium.
All courses are valued at
1.0 credit, unless otherwise
designated.
ML 592 Thesis/LAP

consecutive terms or after the
student has completed at least
five electives and ML 510.)
ML 540 Political Leadership:
change from the Thesis Option
to the Non-Thesis Option after
completing the Research
Seminars, they may petition
the MAL committee.)

~ALUATION STANDARDS
Evaluation of academic performance in the MAL program will be
based on number grades using a 4.0 point scale with these definitions:
4.0
Achieves highest standards of excellence.
3.5
3.0
Achieves above basic course standards.
2.5
2;0
1.5
1.0
0.5
0.0
Achieves the minimum passing standard.
Performance below basic course standards.
Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course).
p
Achieves at or above the 2.0 level (not computed in
grade point average).
N
Does not meet minimum course standards (no credit and
non-punitive - not computed in grade point average).
w
Grade given when a student withdraws from a course after
the deadline for dropping without notation on the record
I
Incomplete grade given when student is unable to complete
course requirements for reasons beyond the student's
control. (To receive an incomplete, a student must file a
petition with the Graduate Programs Office stating reasons
for the request, the plan and date for removing the
incomplete grade, the signature of the instructor and any
other necessary documentation.)
Courses not offered on the
numbered grading system are
noted in the course descriptions
in this catalog as being graded
on PIN basis. In order to receive
a grade of P, a student must
achieve at least a grade of 2.0.
No more than two courses with
a grade below 3.0 will count
toward the degree.
No more than two courses with
a grade of or below 2.5 can be
repeated. Only the credits and
grades earned the second time
are counted in the grade point
average.
~DENT RIGHTS
The College has adopted a
statement of student rights and
responsibilities and provides due
process in matters of disciplinary
action, grievances and grade
appeal. Students who wish to
identify appropriate procedures
for complaints should contact
the Vice President for Student
Affairs (330-1160).
The College operates in
compliance with the Family
Rights and Privacy Act and
Title IX. Students have the right
to inspect all official records
that pertain to them and that are
maintained in the Registrar's
Office and the Placement Office
(except where a waiver of
access has been signed) and
to challenge inaccurate or
misleading information.
Students have a right to
experience education free
from discrimination.
A
Because leadership issues are
presented, discussed and
analyzed in the classroom,
regular attendance is highly
important and should be considered a responsibility, not only to
one's self, but to one's classmates
and course instructor.

Irregular attendance may, at the
discretion of the instructor,
adversely affect one's grade.
A

Academic Probation and
Dismissal Policies

Education
Enrollment Policy/
Leaves of Absence
Students must maintain a 3.0
cumulative grade point average.
If a student falls below a 3.0
average, the student will be
placed on probation for the
following term. A 3.0 cumulative
grade point average must be
restored in order for a student to
be removed from probation. If
a student receives a grade of N
or 0.0 in a course, the student
must petition successfully with
the MAL Advisory Committee
before being allowed to
continue in the program. A plan
for the student to follow would
be outlined at that time. If a
second grade of Nor 0.0 is
received, the student may be
dismissed from the program by
the MAL Advisory Committee.
Students may also be dismissed
by the MAL Advisory
Committee for behavior detrimental to the program, such as a
gross violation of college policy
(as published in the Student
Guide). Dismissal would occur
only after established procedures
were followed.
Due to the interdisciplinary
nature of the courses in the
MAL program, it is unlikely that
courses taken elsewhere may be
substituted for a particular
course in the curriculum.
Students may petition the MAL
program director for approval of
any variation in the curriculum
including the transfer of credit.
Transfer credits will be evaluated on an individual basis.
The only courses that will be
considered for transfer credit are
those earned from accredited
colleges and universities, whose
course content is comparable to
those in the MAL program. No
more than two courses will be
accepted for transfer credit.
Students may take either one or
two courses per trimester.
Enrolling in two courses per
trimester enables a student to
complete the course work in
the program within two years.
All students are required to
complete all components of the
program within five years.
Extensions beyond five years
will be considered on the basis
of petition to the MAL Advisory
Committee. Students who leave
the program for more than one
trimester must request a leave of
absence in writing from the
MAL program director. A leave
of absence may be granted for
one calendar year. Time spent
on an official leave of absence
will not count toward the five
year deadline for degree
completion.
Credit and Contact
Hours
Each full-credit graduate course
in the MAL program is the
equivalent of four semester
credits or six quarter credits.
Students meet in class a total of
31.5 hours and are responsible
for a significant amount of individual study and preparation.
Last Day to Withdraw
from Class
The last date on which students
may withdraw from a class and

published annually in the MAL
Calendar.
~DENT SUPPORT SERVICES

Developing Leaders for
Organizations and the
Community
The Master of Arts in Leadership
responds to the leadership
development needs of profit and
not-for-profit organizations.
While different in structure and
purpose, most organizations
seek leaders with the following
qualities:
• a vision which is ethically and
morally responsible, extending
beyond immediate concerns;
• an understanding of how
change occurs and affects the
immediate environment;
• a sensitivity to the complex
problems organizations face,
and an ability to achieve
solutions consistent with an
organization's mission;
• the ability to motivate and
inspire individuals and groups
to work toward a common
goal; and
• the ability to effectively
represent the organization both
internally and externally.
The Master of Arts in Leadership
provides a means by which individuals may discover and refine
these and other abilities and
awareness fundamental to effective leadership.
Accommodating the
Full-Time Work Schedule
The Master of Arts in
Leadership program is designed
..
. .. ....
to meet the needs and preferences of working adults. The
program is based on the
assumption that the men and
women who enroll are
employed, self-disciplined and
well-motivated individuals who
seek a balance of classroom
experience, group interaction
and individual study. Each
course is, therefore, divided into
periods of study, group efforts
and class preparation. To
accommodate this format for
learning, each class meets on
alternate Saturdays for
three-and-one-half hours and
alternate Thursday evenings for
one-and-one-half hours.
Leadership Development
Model
. • t .
The Master of Arts in
Leadership program promotes
leadership as a process which I)
inspires cooperation among
people who must compete for
limited resources, 2) promotes
productivity within and beyond
the organization, and 3) works
toward progress for the individual and the organization. To
accomplish this, individuals
aspiring to positions of leadership must possess three key
attributes: a sense of vision, the
ability to persuade, and the
ability to direct action.

~TRODUCTION
Underlying these attributes is a
broad range of abilities and
awareness. These abilities and
awarenesses, outlined in the
diagram on page 5, serve as
specific outcomes for the Master
of Arts in Leadership. Augsburg's
model of leadership development
is designed to assess, promote,
enhance and refine these capabilities within the individual.

Essential to the goals of the
Master of Arts in Leadership is
participation in a community of
learners gathered together on the
Augsburg campus. Learning is
enhanced when the student is
involved in a stable community
that provides opportunity and
encouragement for active participation both in and out of the
classroom. This community will
be enriched by the presence of
men and women who bring to
the program a variety of work
and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of community
interaction, Augsburg encourages graduate students to make
use of college facilitates such as
the library, computer labs and
the Christensen Center; to take
the opportunity to share meals
and coffee breaks; to participate
in optional lunch time seminars;
and to attend other college activities such as music and dramatic
presentations, and athletic
events.
Individual Professional
Development
Master of Arts in Leadership
students enroll in a half course
called Leadership Practicum.
Students are required to enroll
in this professional assessment
and development course for six
tenns during their graduate
work at Augsburg. Upon
completion of the entire
practicum, students receive a
half course credit. In each tenn,
specific activities related to the
practicum are scheduled.
Early in the program a major
component of this practicum is a
full-day professional assessment
to determine students' abilities
and potential relative to each of
the outcomes of the Leadership
Development Model (see page
5). Assessment instruments
include paper and pencil exercises, and simulation and group
experiences. Following the
assessment, students meet individually with a trained assessor
who provides guidance in
personal goal-setting and in the
creation of a professional development plan or "blueprint".
Augsburg has contracted with
Personnel Decisions, Inc. (PDI)
to organize and facilitate the
practicums. PDI is a professional consulting firm providing
the full range of psychological
and human resource services to
enhance individual and organizational effectiveness. The
practicums work on a rotating
series of six, one per trimester.
The practicums are designed to
meet the needs of the students in
the following areas: effective
persuasion, communication
techniques, identifying and
defining problems, decision
making, interpersonal skills
required for leadership and other
professional development
topics. Each practicum will
focus on a specific topic and use
mini-lectures, small group exercises and experiential learning.
Students are required to participate in the practicum workshop
with PDI during the same term
they participate in the professional assessment.

Thesis/Leadership
Application Project
Requirement
At, or near, the completion of
the course work for the Master
of Arts in Leadership program,
students are required to develop
and carry out a study of some
aspect of leadership or leadership related topic. This research
based study affords the student
the opportunity to "tie together"
what has been learned from the
study of leadership in the course
work, course related activities
and the practicum sessions.
Students in the Master of Arts in
Leadership program have the
option to do either a Thesis or a
Leadership Application Project
for completion of the Master of
Arts in Leadership degree. The
decision as to which of these
capstone alternatives is selected
depends on the interests and
orientation of the student. Some
students express a theoretical
interest in the study of leadership and identify topics which
lend themselves to a more traditional thesis project. Other
students express interest in a
more applied approach to leadership and wish to pursue
investigations which are not
appropriate for more traditional
thesis topics. Students with
more practical topics in mind
are likely to select the
Leadership Application Project.
Both the Thesis and the
Leadership Application Project
should be seen as the culmination of the Master of Arts in
Leadership program, offering
participants the opportunity to
either investigate some aspect of
leadership in depth or explore
the application of what has been
studied. The principal distinction between these two options
lies in their underlying orientation. The Thesis will have a
more theoretical orientation,
while the Leadership
Application Project will be
based on a more practical
applied orientation. The difference between these two options
will be explored in more detail
in the ML 514 Research
Methods course, taken during
the first year of the student's
program.

larly in leadership. Leaders,
regardless of their field, are
continually held accountable for
decisions in settings characterized by incomplete information
and limited time. The
constrained nature of the typical
decision making environment
necessitates the use of a systematic and objective decision
making process. Drawing on
various disciplines, course
participants will examine the
different stages of the decision
making process including:
analysis of the decision setting
and its relevant boundaries,
identification of acceptable decision outcomes, definition of the
implementation of the decision
and appraisal of potential
contingencies. While emphasis
is given to the qualitative rather
than quantitative aspects of
decision making, about 20
percent of the course will
include the development of
some basic analytical concepts:
data collection, graphs and
charts, measuring central
tendency and dispersion, and
association.
