Besides the regular instruction, which is given six hours a week. some time is devoted to gymnastic games, such as basket- ball, handball, and the like. At least two hours of re- gular gymnasium work is required of all students taking work in the Academy and in the first year of the College.

Show moreAUGSBURG SEMINARY 9 1875 to 1890, 115; from 1890 to 1893, 174; from 1893 to 1919, 153. The average yearly attendance from 1869 to 1919 has been 128. The aim of the founders of Augsburg Seminary was to meet the demands of our Lutheran immigrants for earnest, consecrated ministers of the gospel. But if this aim was to be attained the very foundations of the school would have to be a true and living Christianity, Lutheran profession, and a close alliance with the congregations. Such a school could not find a model in the institutions of the Established'Church of Norway, as these were de- signed to educate ministers who were the servants of the government. It was necessary to reach the desired end thru personal experience, and the history of Augs- burg Seminary is, therefore, the story of the trials and struggles and the final success of its founders in their efforts to establish a school that should meet the urgent need of faithful and earnest pastors in a free Lutheran Church. While the curriculum of the school has been broadened and perfected in the course of time, still there has been no disposition to deviate from its original pur- pose. Altho Augsburg Seminary is primarily a divinity school, established and maintained for the education of Christian ministers, teachers, and missionaries, its leaders have not been unaware of the circumstance that not all the students in the preparatory departments intend to become ministers. For this reason the courses both in the Academy and in the college have been arranged so as to meet the needs also of those young men who seek a thoro secondary and college education preparatory to - other lines of professional work. Augsburg Seminary endeavors to awaken and nour- ish the spiritual life in all its students. For this reason it not only makes attendance in classes of religious in- struction obligatory, but it also seeks to surround the Show less

MUSICAL ORGANIZATIONS The Augsburg Glee Club is composed of students who show marked musical ability and interest. Those who. wish to become members must possess good voice, good ear, and fair ability to read music at sight. Several of the masterpieces of choral music for male voices are studied during the year and rendered at the various so- cial gatherings and concerts at the Seminary and in the local churches. g The Augsburg Male Chorus is the oldest musical organization in the Seminary. Its aim is to drill students in practical chorus work and develop their taste for good music. All students who have good ear and some knowledge of musical notation may become members. The Augsburg Band was organized in 1904. Boys who play band instruments, brass or reed, and who come to Augsburg next year, will stand a, good chance to be- come members. GENERAL SOCIETIES The Augsburg Medical Aid Society, founded in 1879, is an organization for the mutual aid of members in case of sickness. All students who room at the Sem- inary are members of the society. Students rooming out- side but who take their meals in the Boarding Club may also be admitted as members.

Show more26 AUGSBURG BEMINARY involves a systematic study of the essentials of preaching as testifying of Christ, properly designated as Homile- tics. It is constantly borne in mind that the power of preaching does not lie in human art but in the divine authority of the Word and the Spirit of God. Hence, while there must be intense study of the text and much practice in the art of presenting truth, the essential homiletic preparation consists in ridding minds of world- ly notions as to preaching and self-confidence in order that Word and Spirit may have full sway. Further the course consists in the study of the pericopes; analytical reading of representative sermons; written outlines of sermons and religious addresses, and weekly sermons in class. 2. C atechetics. Catechetics as a branch of Practical Theology at- tempts to teach the proper methods of instructing the young in the Church, especially in the Christian religion. It looks upon the educational work entrusted to every congregation as fundamentally necessary and requiring careful training of teachers and patient and systematic execution. A good pastor should not only himself be able “to feed the lambs” but should also know how to teach others the same art. The course involves, first a survey of the history of Christian education; secondly, a description of the theories and methods of such educa- tion as they prevail in the Church to-day; thirdly, the practical application of principles and' methods to our educational need, so that the material of instruction may be suited as much as possible to the growing heart and mind of the child. This again involves a knowledge of the systematic use of the Bible for instruction as well as of the other books used in catechetical instruction. Show less

Two courses are offered, an el- ementary course for the Juniors and an advanced course for the Middlers. ‘ New Testament Greek. The Greek of the New Testament is studied on the basis of the classical Greek. The purpose is to show that it differs from the classical and that it is the language as it was spoken by the people of Palestine in the time of Christ. No student of the New Testament ought to rest satisfied until he can read his Testament in the lan- guage in which it was written. History of the New Testament Manuscripts. The aim of this course is to familiarize the student with the history of the printed Greek text since 1514; to impart to him information about the leading New Testament manuscripts; and to discuss the historical method employed in textual inquiry.
