Show moreEarly Norwegian immigrants to this country recognized the greatest lack of their new land. line they had no churches and few ordained pas- tors. The response to this need is a part of a his- tory which we are now making. In 1869 the first theological training school for Norwegian Lutherans in America was started. It was founded in Marshall, Wisconsin, and was called Augsburg Seminary. In 1872 it was moved to its present location with a newly-constructed seminary building near the banks of the Mississippi on the borders of rapidly-growing Minneapolis. Great men served as its presidents and leaders, and on its faculty were those who were stimulated in their work with a zeal for the expanding of the kingdom of God on earth. Since its early beginning it has developed a college department which also prepares men and women for community service with a Christian emphasis. As the college grew and departments were added to its curriculum it provided a higher level of pre-seminary training. The aim has always been to prepare well-trained pastors who are alert, not only to the church’s responsibility in the com- munity. but also to individual problems.

They also involve ex- posing the student to aspects of religion which may be non-Christian or anti-Christian. The introduction of negative reactions to Christianity are an important part of the challenge in religion.

Wolsle- SNEA One of the more important vocational organizations on campus is SNEA. the Student National Education Association which functions in helping elementary and secondary teaching majors to gain a greater un- derstanding of their chosen profession. Since nearly fifty percent of the Augsburg student body is majoring in education. SNEA activities are of great importance. Writer‘s Club — FRONT ROW: N. Follingstad. A. Larson. 8. Dunshee. SECOND ROW: B. Scurrah. J. Warren, R. Sargent. The SNEA sponsors speakers for their meetings to discuss the teacher's role in the society of today. At the group's meetings films are shown, students share student teaching experiences and special problems. Augsburg's SNEA has participated in the statewide organization. Writer’s Club Writers' lives are notoriously unstable as the history of Augsburg Writer's Club this year has shown. After two officer changes the club completed the year with president Bill Scurrah. Despite its stormy start the group has a sizeable list of accomplishments includ- ing the reading of poetry by three visiting poets, the publication of the Arkai, and a gala debut for the Arkai featuring a student art exhibit and a reception at which student works are read. The club worked closely with the Student Government Fine Arts Commission which gave much financial aid. Show less
