Introduction
Few liberal arts colleges combine the
excitement and vitality of a metropolitan
center with the smallness and intimacy of
the rural setting. Augsburg is one of the
few, very special Christian colleges which
can offer you both.
The small college atmosphere enables
you to be a participant or a spectator at a
variety of events and activities. Exhibitions, concerts, films, and lectures are
regularly available to you on campus,
as are intercollegiate or intramural athletic
programs.
Religious activities are a vital part of the
campus. The Religious Life Commission
has been established by the Student
Government to oversee, stimulate and
perpetuate religious life on the Augsburg
campus. Its primary purpose and goal i s
neither self-serving nor self-sustaining,
but rather furthering the ministry of
Christ on the Augsburg campus.
You, the student, are an individual at
Augsburg. You design your own learning
experience. While distributional and
major requirements act as guidelines,
there is latitude to design a portion o f
your own education.
At Augsburg, the innovative and experimental as well as the individual are
central. The college follows the calendar
known as the "4-1-4."
I n the study of the liberal arts, you will
encounter ideas and experiences from
the whole range of human knowledge.
The liberal arts education, however, is
more than an education of knowledge
from a number of fields. Augsburg recognizes that concentration is necessary in
your chosen field. You may choose from a
variety of majors for hundreds of career
possibilities.
Augsburg is i n the center of the Twin
Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. In this
metropolitan setting, a rich kaleidoscope
of resources and activities i s available t o
enrich your education, if you choose. You
may select an evening at the Guthrie
Theater, the Brave New Workshop, or at
any of the many galleries or coffee
houses. You might spend an afternoon
touring the Minneapolis Institute of Arts.
You may choose a concert by the Minnesota Orchestra or one by the many professional touring groups that appear i n
the Twin Cities. There are numerous
opportunities for individual and team
sports. Professional sports are also available - the Twins, the Vikings, the North
Stars, and the Kicks.
Thus, we feel Augsburg i s a distinctive
combination: a strong academic program, a capable and dedicated staff, an
eager student body and a remarkable
location.

The Physical Plant
Instruction facilities and student housing
at Augsburg are conveniently located in
relation t o each other.
Remodelling and construction work to
eliminate architectural barriers is expected t o be completed during 1980. This will
include street level access from 21st
Avenue South t o a tunnel/ramp/skyway
system that connects the tower dormitories and the five buildings on theQuadrangle.
Remodelling of academic and administrative space will result in relocations of
some departments and offices by 1980-81.
Following are descriptions of buildings.
The Admissions House, located at 628-21st
Avenue South, provides offices for the
admissions staff and a reception area for
prospective students and their parents.
The George Sverdrup Library, named in
honor of Augsburg's fourth president,
was erected and dedicated in 1955. Adjacent t o Science Hall and of similar
contemporary architectural design, it
provides excellent resources for research
and study. It contains reading rooms,
seminars, work rooms, a visual-education
center, the Augsburg Archives, classrooms, and a number of faculty offices.
Science Hall, erected in 1948-49, includes
general administration offices; the Computer Center; well-equipped laboratories
for chemistry, physics, and biology; a
medium-sized auditorium; and several
classrooms and faculty offices. The Lisa
Odland Observatory on the roof of
Science Hall was completed in the summer of 1960.
O l d Main, erected i n 1900, contains a
large number of classrooms and offices.
West Hall is an apartment building purchased in 1966 shortly after it was constructed. It provides excellent housing for
married students.
Mortensen Tower, erected i n 1973,
named in honor of Miss Gerda Mortensen, dean of women at Augsburg from
1923 to 1964, contains 104 one and twobedroom apartments providing housing
for 312 upperclass students. A spacious
lounge area as well as conference rooms
are located i n this building.
Urness Tower, completed in 1967, i s an
eleven-story building providing living
quarters for 324 students. The building
was named i n honor of Mr. and Mrs.
Andrew Urness who have given several
generous gifts to the college. A unique
feature of the building i s that each floor i s
considered a "house unit" providing the
36 residents, housed two to a room, with
their own lounge, study and utility areas.
The Augsburg College Center, completed
i n 1967, i s a center of non-academic
activity on campus. The building houses
the Commons, which i s the main dining
area, plus private dining rooms and a
coffee shop. Student government and
student publications have quarters in this
building. The bookstore i s also located
here. Spacious lounges and recreational
areas are provided in this three-story
building containing 55,000 square feet of
space.
Sverdrup-Oftedal Memorial Hall, erected
in 1938, was named in honor of Augsburg's second and third presidents. The
building provides space for administrative
and faculty offices and houses about 40
students.
The Music Hall, erected i n 1978, i s the
newest building on the campus. It con-
tains classroom facilities, two rehearsal
halls, a music library, practice studios,
offices for the music faculty and a 217-seat
recital hall.
The Art Studio Building, dedicated i n
1964, houses the Department of Art on i t s
two floors.
Melby Hall, the auditorium-gymnasium,
was completed i n 1961. This building,
named in honor of Professor J.S. Melby,
dean of men from 1920 t o 1942, basketball
coach and head of the Christianity department, provides excellent facilities for
the health and physical education program, intercollegiate athletics, chapel
services, and general auditorium purposes.
The Ice Arena, built i n 1974, provides two
large skating areas for Augsburg and the
metropolitan community. It is used for
hockey, recreational skating, and figure
skating.
The Speech and Drama Building was acq u i r e d i n 1959 and remodeled f o r
dramatic and other speech activities. A
theater wing addition t o Melby Hall, replacing the old music hall, is proposed for
completion late i n 1980.
Annex Houses, located i n the campus
area, provide accommodations for students, faculty, a n d staff members.
Academic Life
Augsburg i s a modern well-equipped
college which aims to provide i t s students
with a broad liberal arts education as well
as prepare them for a career. A strong
academic program in the arts and sciences
and in theology i s available. Pre-professional preparation for such fields as
engineering, medicine, law and t h e
Christian ministry is offered. The College
prepares students for graduate study in
several disciplines. Preparation f o r
careers in business, communications,
medical technology, music, nursing,
occupational therapy, social work, and
teaching i s available.
Augsburg seeks to assist i t s students
through their academic experience to
better understand themselves and the
world and to equip them to serve according t o their individual interests and
abilities.
The Student as Learner
A great deal has been written during the
last few years describing the responsibilities of a college to its students. Augsburg
recognizes its task to provide consistently
high quality opportunities for learning
along with support systems which enhance the teaching-learning process.
Learning i s not, however, a commodity
which can be purchased. It i s not equal t o
simply buying so many courses and being
exposed to the activities of professors.
Learning involves t h e solitary inner
struggle of the student who investigates,
analyzes and synthesizes the materials
and insights offered. When these have
become one's own and when the learner
moves on to new personal insights, then
learning has taken place.
Both the school and the student have
responsibilities in this process. Neither
party can elude its basic task.
Faculty
Augsburg has an able faculty who try to
take a personal interest in their students.
The student-faculty ratio i s approximately
15.5 to 1, with class size averaging 25 or
less.
Augsburg faculty members serve as
academic advisers and are available for
help on individual problems. They often
join students in discussing the political
climate, comparing notes on a visiting
speaker, or talking over the latest sports
victory while having coffee.
Library Services
Augsburg has a well-equipped library.
A relaxed atmosphere, a helpful staff and
friendly student library assistants make
the library a favorite place t o study. The
main library, centrally located next to the
Science Hall, houses over 160,000volumes
including books, periodicals, records and
various other media. The Music and
Chemistry libraries are located within the
departmental areas.
Access t o over a million volumes i s available via daily interloan and courier service
among the seven private liberal arts colleges and the Hill Reference Library.
Through Minitex, the statewide network,
the additional resources of Minnesota
and Wisconsin libraries are accessible to
the Augsburg faculty and students.
A s e r v i c e - d e d i c a t e d staff p r o v i d e s
students with assistance to meet diverse
information needs including instruction
i n the use of the library, standard reference service, guidance in pursuing term
paper topics, and directions to other local
sources of information.
The AV Center of the Library provides
facilities for classes in broadcasting and
audio-visual materials. Assistance with the
production of slides, transparencies, filmstrips and audiohide0 tape recordings
are available f o r b o t h faculty and
students. Equipment such as movie and
slide projectors and tape recorders may
be borrowed for limited periods; film
bibliographies and other advice o n
materials selection are also available.
The 4-1-4 Calendar
Augsburg follows the 4-1-4 calendar. Two
15-week semesters are separated by a 4week interim in January. During each
semester the student generally enrolls in
four courses; during the interim concentration is on one subject.
The interim period i s an especially exciting time. The whole world becomes an
arena of learning. Creative energies and
individual interests determine the course
of study. Innovation and experimentation
are encouraged i n this change from the
general academic schedule. Interest in
music may take form i n the study and
presentation of a concert program. Interest in people may find form in the study
and participation in activities of a social
agency. Newspapers and advertising
agencies provide opportunities for those
interested in communications. Whether
your interests are sedate or spectacular
the interim will afford the opportunity t o
experience and experiment while learning.
General Education
Requirements
Distribution requirements for graduation
are minimal, affording the student considerable f r e e d o m i n t h e choice o f
courses. A student seeking a liberal arts
education would probably choose many
of them even if they were not required.
In selecting courses t o meet the general
distribution requirements, students may
select an approved course in the areas of
mathematics or physics, chemistry or biology, psychology or sociology, economics o r p o l i t i c a l science, history o r
philosophy, and English or speech, communication and theater arts. The study of
a foreign language is required. Proficiency in English writing must be demonstrated. One course from an approved list
of courses containing an emphasis on
urban concerns i s required as is prof i c i e n c y i n t w o l i f e t i m e sports.
For details on general education requirements, see the Academic Administration
section.

Pre-Professional Training
Students who plan to enter the fields of

planned accordingly. Augsburg offers a
wide scope of courses in the natural and
social sciences, i n the humanities, and in
religion and philosophy which will provide the necessary preparation for future

learning and development also occur in
formal and informal activities and opportunities of the college and metropolitan
area. Whether you are a resident or commuter student, you'll find that the climate
for learning and living at Augsburg can
add dimension to your education.
Religious Life
An important part of daily life at Augsburg
is religious activity. The Religious Life
Commission, chaired by students and
composed of students and faculty, sees its
major responsibility in relation t o worship, devotional life and the stimulation of
faith. Chapel services are held three times
a week and are both experimental and
traditional in character. The Wednesday
evening Eucharist service in the College
Center is a valued worship experience for
many students. Students, faculty and staff
participate voluntarily. Special events are
sponsored throughout the year and a
number of groups having a religious
emphasis meet regularly. The College
Pastor has an office in the College Center
to be readily available for counseling,
consultation or ways to get more involved
in religious activity and groups.
Social and Cultural
Throughout the year, a variety of social
and cultural activities takes place on campus as well as in the Twin Cities. These
activities include dances, special dinners,
name entertainment, and visiting personalities in various fields.
The College Center is the focus of leisuretime activity on campus. Offices for the
College newspaper, the Augsburg Echo,
and the yearbook, the Augsburgian, are
on the lower level. Many of the clubs that
unite classroom or non-classroom related
interests meet in the Center.
There are several opportunities for participation in music and drama. In addition
to performing on campus and in the city,
the Augsburg Choir, Concert Band, and
Orchestra tour. The String Ensemble, the
Chorale, the Jazz Ensemble and several
student-organized groups such as the
Cabaret Singers also perform on and off
campus. Several plays are given o n
campus each year under the direction of
the theater arts department.
Recreation
Every student is urged t o participate in
some activity for recreation and relaxation. An intramural program provides

Student Services
Augsburg College i s concerned with educating the whole person and recognizes
that the context in which learning takes
place i s a critical factor in achieving optimal growth. Knowledge grows from more
than intellectual endeavors. Expanding
relationships, exploring values, identifying life styles, developing autonomy and
interdependence, finding purpose and
commitment - all combine with intellectual content and skills to produce the
desired educational impact of the college
on its students.
The Division of Student Affairs has been
created to support this task. During the
summer before your freshman year, or at
the time of transfer, you will receive a
copy of SEMAPHORE: Student Guide to a
College Education. This book will help
you assess the possibilities in your education, choices to make, directions to
consider and different destinations for
which t o plan. SEMAPHOREwas designed
to act as a sort of road map for you.
The Center for Student Development
provides a variety of services to help make
your journey as rich and meaningful as
possible. Some of the opportunities you
may wish to participate i n are listed
below.
Summer Orientation. You can plan your
first academic year and register for classes.

classmates, faculty, and staff as well as with
the campus. You stay in the dormitory,

housing alternatives is provided. The residence hall program is designed to promote student growth through relationships with other students and being an
active participant in group decisionmaking. Each residence unit has one or
more Resident Staff who are able to

Women's Awareness, International Living,
Simplified Life Styles, and Scandinavian
Studies.

PREPARING A BUDGET
Writing down realistic estimates of all
expenses and of all potential financial
resources i s the best way to do your
financial planning. Both your own financial ability and that of your family are
considered in evaluating your need for
financial aid. Your budget should include
amounts for tuition and fees and for
books and supplies. Tuition and fees for
1980-81 are $3660 per year. Books and
supplies may be estimated at $225 per
year. Room and board i s $1760 per year.
Other college-related expenses are those
for transportation to and from the campus. Estimates should be based on nine
months.
Personal maintenance costs vary, but
amounts should be budgeted for:
Clothing, cleaning
Recreation, entertainment
Personal spending, cosmetics,
incidentals
Medical (doctors, dentists, eyeglasses,
etc.)
After you have written down estimates of
your expenses, make a list of all possible
sources of income, such as: contributions
from parents' earnings; personal and
family savings; personal earnings during
vacation periods; earnings from part-time
jobs during academic year; benefits from
Social Security and/or Veteran's Administration; aids or loans from sources other
than family, friends or Augsburg (i.e.,
scholarships from state, church, civic and
school).
Students should check with their employers, their parents' employers and any
union t o which a family member belongs
for possible scholarship programs. High
school guidance counselors may have
information about student aid offered by
church, civic, professional, or fraternal
organizations i n a given locality. Following
you will find a summary of financial aid
programs.
Information on a deferred payment plan
i s available from the Augsburg College

subject to dismissal at the end of the
following spring term. A student who has
a poor academic record may be strongly
advised t o withdraw before the end of the
spring term.
Dismissal from the College will not be
automatic. Each case will be reviewed by
t h e Committee o n Admissions and
Student Standing.
A student who has been o n probation for
two terms and withdraws from the Cod
lege voluntarily must havespecial permission to re-enroll.
Evaluation and Grading
Student achievement in courses i s measured primarily by means of final examinations. Shorter examinations or tests,
written papers, oral reports, and other
types of evaluation are also used.
Most courses are graded on a scale of 4.0
to 0 with definitions as follows:
4.0 Achieves highest standards o f
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.
.5
0. Unacceptable performance ( n o
credit for the course).
Most courses are also offered on a Pass/
N o Credit system, with P meaning a grade
of 2.0 or better and N meaning no credit
and a grade of less than 2.0. O n the P/N
grading system the grade is recorded but
not computed in the grade point average.
A student may count a maximum of eight
courses of P toward graduation. For transfer students the maximum is an averageof
two courses per year. Two courses in the
major (except Elementary Education) and
one in the minor may be on P/N grading
system if approved by the department
chairperson.
Sociology 383 and several interim courses
are graded only on the P/N grading system. Some education courses are graded
only on the P/N system or only o n the
traditional system. English 111 is graded P
or N, or 2.0-4.O/N. Some other courses are
graded only P, 1.0, N. Students may select
the traditional grading system i n most
other courses. Students are cautioned t o
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.
Students must indicate on their registration form those courses which they wish
to take on the P/N grading system. Any
changes in choice of grading system must
be made according t o dates published
each term. A fee i s charged after the first
five days of classes.
Music organizations and performance
studies, Chemistry Seminar and Lifetime
Sports are graded P/O.O.
An incomplete grade (I) may be given
only in the caseof extreme emergency. To
receive an I grade, a student must file a
petition with the Committee on Admissions and Student Standing stating the
reasons for requesting it, the plan and
date for removing it, and comments from
the instructor of the course. If permission
to receive an I grade is granted, it must be
removed during the following semester.
If the incomplete is not removed during
the following semester, it becomes the
grade submitted by the teacher along
with the incomplete.
A grade of X may be given for an Independent Study or Directed Study course
that i s t o be spread over more than one
semester. Such a course must be completed during the second semester or the
grade of X will remain on the record.
A course in which a grade of 0,1.0,1.5, N,
1, or X has been received may be repeated
for credit. All courses taken remain on the
academic record. Only the credits and
grades earned the second time arecounted toward graduation and i n the grade
point average. Courses in which higher
grades have been earned may not be
repeated for credit; they may, however,
be audited.
Students who wish t o fake courses without credit or grade may do so by registering for Audit (V). Such students should
confer with the professor within t w o
weeks of the beginning of the term to
determine expectations, attendance requirement, etc. If expectations have been
met, the course will be listed on the
student's transcript as having been
audited. If expectations have not been
met, the course will be listed witti a grade
of W (withdrawn).
Full-time students may audit a course
without charge. The charge for part-time
students i s listed under Expenses.
Dean's List
The Dean's List i s composed of students
whose grade point average for a semester
is 3.5 or better based on a minimum of
three full courses (or equivalent) graded
on the traditional grading system, with no
incompletes i n courses offered for credit.
The Dean's List i s published in the Augsburg College Now, and students receive a
letter of commendation from the Dean of
the College.
Graduation with Distinction
Graduation with distinction is determined
as follows:
Summacumlaude
Magnacumlaude
Cum laude
3.8 - 4.0 g r a d e
average
3.6 - 3.79 grade
average
3.3 - 3.59 grade
average
To qualify for graduation with distinction,
transfer students must have completed
two years (14traditionally graded courses)
of work at Augsburg.
Independent Study
An opportunity for independent study i s
offered through many departments. This
i s available to conscientious students who
demonstrate sufficient background and
preparation in a given field to carry out
work on an independent basis.
Most departments also offer an opportunity for directed study. As the term
suggests, this requires considerably more
faculty direction than for independent
study, and a student i s not expected t o
have as much background as for independent study. Directed study is offered
on a lower division level.
Students interested in registering for
either independent study or directed
study must first secure permission from
the faculty who will direct the study.
A student who registers for independent
study should normally expect to complete
it i n one semester but may extend it into
the next term by permission of the instructor. I n such cases, a grade of X i s
given at the end of the first term, and the
student will register again for the course
i n order t o receive the final grade.
A maximum of two courses in Independent Study and/or Directed Study may
count toward the 35 courses required for
the degree.
In the Five College Cooperative Program,
students may cross-register for independent studies only when the major field i n
which the independent study is proposed
is not available on their home campus.
Requests for exceptions t o this policy
should be made directly to their own
academic dean. The student will be
charged for any special costs attached t o
independent study by the host campus.
Veterans
Augsburg College is approved by the
State Approving Agency for Veterans
Training.
Veterans should consult with the Office of
the Registrar regarding completion of the
enrollment certificate and the forwarding
of other information t o the Veterans
Administration.
Students registered for three or more
courses are classified as full-time students.
It i s the responsibility of each veteran t o
report any change i n registration and/or
academic load to the Office of the
Registrar.
Veterans will be referred to the State
Approving Agency after any period of two
consecutive terms in which they did not
earn a minimum of three courses per
term. An incomplete grade (I) may be
given only i n t h e case of extreme
emergency. See section o n Grading.
Grade reports are issued t o students following each term.
A non-punitive grade which brings a
veteran'; academic load for the term
below three courses will be reported t o
the Veterans Administration. Veterans
will need to meet the requirements of the
Veterans Administration regarding repayment of educational assistance funds
received.
General Information

University (Houghton, Michigan), i n a
Three-Two Plan of studies which will
enable a student to earn the Bachelor of
Arts degree from Augsburg College and
an engineering baccalaureate degree
from Washington University or Michigan
Technological University in a five-year
period. The first three years are spent at
Augsburg followed by two years at the
affiliated university. Students accepted
into the program are guaranteed admission t o the engineering school, provided
they have met course requirements, have
a B average, and are recommended by a
designated representative of Augsburg
College. Students receiving financial aid
who are participants in the Three-Two
Plan will be encouraged to apply to the
engineering school of their choice for
continuing support. Their applications
will be evaluated using need and academic performance as criteria. Minimum
course requirements for admission t o the
Three-Two Plan are: Math 124, 125, 224,
226; Physics 121,122; Chemistry 115, 116;
Computer Science 245; English 111; additional courses to meet general education
requirements and a total of 27 courses at
Augsburg. Normally Math 124, 125 and
Physics 121,122 are taken i n the freshman
year. Students are encouraged t o apply
for admission t o the program during their
sophomore year. Early consultation with
the adviser, Ken Erickson, i s encouraged.
English
Chairpersons: Catherine Nicholl, Richard
Sargent
MAJOR: 9 courses (above I l l ) , including
one course i n American literature, one
course i n the Western literary tradition
(271 or 272) and three courses in British
literature. Of the British literature courses,

one must survey a number of writers (for
example, 336,337, or 423). All majors must
take 225, Advanced Expository Writing.
Majors are encouraged to take, early in
their college work, course 245, Introduction t o Literature. Majors are strongly
urged t o consult their 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 English department:

for the major and a course in the English
language. Courses i n early American litera t u r e , Shakespeare, a n d f i l m a r e

consider developing an area of emphasis
broader than the major as listed above.
The most likely areas would be a British
concentration, an American concentration, a world literature concentration, and
a writing concentration. A student arranges a concentration by careful selec-
tion of electives in the major, by the
design of an independent study course
that applies t o the concentration, and by
the selection of some related courses
outside the English department.

Philosophy
Chairperson: Kenneth Bailey
Courses 110, 120, and 130 are recommended for fulfilling the general education requirement.
MAJOR: 9 courses, including 130, 241,
242, 343, and 344.
110 I N T R O D U C T I O N T O PHILOSOPHY:
IDEAS A N D M E T H O D
M I N O R : 5 courses, including two courses
from 241,242, 343, and 344.
H O N O R S MAJOR: Admission t o the
Philosophy Honors program i s by recommendation of the philosophy faculty. Such
recommendations will be made at the end
of the junior year. The program will consist of an honors thesis on an approved
topic of the student's choice, involving
research above the course level, and a
defense of this thesis before the faculty of
the department.
Though each person has his own set of
ideas and beliefs, rarely have they been
critically analyzed or evaluated for their
consistency, adequacy or truth. One reason for this i s that individuals lack the
needed skills. Another is that they may
have had little opportunity to examine
critically some of the ideas basic to western culture. The purposes of this course
are to provide the student with some
experience i n examining ideas, and
thereby to sharpen the critical and analytical skills required t o evaluate and construct a system of ideas and beliefs. (Fall,
Spring)
120 ETHICS
Sometimes you say that a certain action i s
right or condemn it as wrong. Why do you
think it i s right? Because you like it? Are
there better reasons for thinking something right or wrong? This course takes a
long, hard look at possible grounds for
making moral decisions, and at the moral
judgments about personal and social
issues resulting from them. (Fall, Spring)
130 L O G I C
Suppose someone gives you reasons, and
then says you must accept a particular
conclusion. Must you? When does a conclusion follow from premises? Here we
examine the rules which govern valid
arguments and work to develop your
ability to recognize and construct sound
arguments. (Fall, Spring).
241 HISTORY O F PHILOSOPHY I: P L A T 0
A N D ARISTOTLE
How, when and why did philosophy begin? Who were Socrates, Plato, Aristotle
and the Stoics; what did they believe?
Why did Plato think that the physical
world was not overly important, and what
did he value? How did Aristotle, the
scientist, respond to this? The answers to
these and other questions will be considered as to reveal what these great
philosophers can contribute to our contemporary problems and ideas. (Fall)
242 HISTORY O F PHILOSOPHY 11:
MEDIEVAL A N D RENAISSANCE
PHILOSOPHY
The Middle Ages are often regarded as a
period of darkness, whereas the Renaissance was a time of rediscovery and
enlightenment. H o w dark were t h e
Middle Ages; how enlightened the Renaissance?We shall attempt t o discover the
grandeur of the Medieval philosophers,
learn how the Christian tradition was
carried forward i n the Age of Faith, explore the worship of the world and the
individual i n the Renaissanceand the new
methodology of the 17th Century rationalists. (Spring. Suggested prior course,
247.)
343 HISTORY O F PHILOSOPHY Ill:
ENLIGHTENMENT A N D 19TH
CENTURY PHILOSOPHY
Where does knowledge begin? I n innate
ideas or with experience? What can we
really know about the world? What impact did Romanticism have on philosophy? This course studies the major
empiricists of the 18th century (Locke,
Berkeley, Hume). Kant's synthesis of philosophy, 19th century idealism, and the
reaction to idealism in men such as Marx,
Kierkegaard and Nietzsche. (Fall. Suggested prior course, 247 or 242.)
344 HISTORY O F PHILOSOPHY IV:
C O N T E M P O R A R Y PHILOSOPHY
What lies behind 20th century philosophy's love affair with language? I s truth
that which works? Can we remake philosophy as a rigorous science? These and
other issues are dealt with in astudy of the
m a j o r representatives o f l i n g u i s t i c
analysis, pragmatism, existentialism, and
phenomenology. (Spring. Suggested
prior course, 247, 242, or 343.)
350 PHILOSOPHY O F RELIGION
What is the relation between faith and
reason? Does God exist, and what can be
said about him if he does? Can we reconcile the goodness of God with human and
animal suffering? I s man really immortal?
Are miracles possible?We intend to conduct a systematic inquiry into these questions which form the basis of religious
beliefs. (Suggested: one prior course in
philosophy.)
355 ORIENTAL PHILOSOPHY
A study of the basic concepts and philosophies which underlie Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism. (Suggested: one prior course in philosophy.)
360 PHILOSOPHY O F LANGUAGE
Every day we use language to buy and sell,
praise and berate, communicate with
friends. What i s language? Could an individual be fully human without it? How
does language relate to the world - can
we really learn about the nature of things
from words? Do the mathematician and
the scientist have a language?I s it possible
to have a language which only one individual can understand?We shall explore
how philosophers have responded to
these and other important questions
about language. (Suggested prior course,
730 or 344.)
365
PHILOSOPHY O F SCIENCE
The scientist's knowledge of the world i s
purported to be profoundly different and
better than that of the non-scientist. I s this
true? What constitutes scientific knowledge? Are there certain real questions
which science cannot answer? How certain are the methods used by the scientist
to recover knowledge? In addition to
dealing with these questions,students will
work in researching and developing philosophical problems i n the special
sciences. (Suggested prior course, 730 or
one course in natural science.)
370 EXISTENTIALISM
Studies in the writings - both philosophical and literary - of prominent
Existentialist authors. We will examine
what it means to be a being-in-the-world,
and explore such themes as absurdity,
freedom, guilt, despair and paradox.

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

This bulletin is a supplement to the Augsburg College Catalog and is published for the convenience of
Augsburg Weekend College students . Weekend College is a program of Augsburg College and is subject
to the policies and provisions as stated in the Augsburg College Catalog.
INTRODUCTION TO AUGSBURG WEEKEND COLLEGE
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
PURPOSE
Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults 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 professional advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a
personal interest in one or more areas of the liberal arts.
EDUCATIONAL MISSION
For over a century Augsburg College has emphasized intellectual freedom in the
search for knowledge. Our academic program builds on a liberal arts foundation to
help students understand the past, interpret the present, and plan for the future.
THE ADULT AS STUDENT
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
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 meet on alternate weekends
for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday
afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each class selected by the student involves
commitment to one of these four class periods. Weekend College students may
take from one to four different courses by attending class every other weekend.
COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS
Essential to the goals of Augsburg 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 such as the library and college
center, to take the opportunity of having shared meals and coffee breaks, to
participate in optional chapel services and lunchtime seminars, and to attend other
college activities such as music and dramatic presentations and athletic events.
As in the weekday program, Augsburg Weekend College offers 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 life-long
learners, increase their competence in selected areas of professional work, and
accomplish a higher level of personal growth.
ACCREDITATION AND AFFILIATIONS
Augsburg College is fully accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges
and Secondary Schools and The National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher
Education (Secondary and Elementary). Our programs are approved by The
American Chemical Society, The Council on Social Work Education and the
National League for Nursing. We are a member of the Associated Colleges of the
Twin Cities (ACTC), Lutheran Education Council in North America, Minnesota
Private College Council, National Association for Music Therapy, Inc., and are
registered with the Minnesota Higher Education Coordinating Board (HECB).
FACULTY
Augsburg College prides itself on its highly qualified faculty. Members of the
faculty serve as academic advisers to students who are in the pre-major stage of
planning as well as to students in declared major fields.
LIBRARY
Students and faculty use a carefully selected library of some 138,000 volumes
plus audio-visual materials, with access to over 5,000,000 volumes through the
Twin Cities private college consortium and Minitex.
INTERNSHIPS
Internships on and off campus are an established part of most academic programs,
helping students make career choices and develop experience in their chosen fields.

Augsburg Weekend College allows adults to begin a bachelor's degree program or
to continue their education after beginning at another time or institution. I t also

STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES
ASSESSMENT OF PREVIOUS LEARNING (APL) PROGRAM
Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to assist adults
in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the academic tasks of a
college education, working on their own personal development, and participating in
activities beyond the classroom. Some of these services are:
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.
ACADEMIC PLANNING
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert academic
advising services on an on-going basis to provide for efficient, effective planning.
Students enrolling in Weekend College who have had college experience will have
their previous work evaluated early in the admissions process.
CAREER PLANNING SERVICES
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in assessing
their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in combination with sound
academic advising from faculty in a chosen major field, can result in an appropriate
and manageable educational and career plan for the individual involved.
ACADEMIC SKILLS CENTER
This center exists to help students enhance their skills in the areas of writing,
reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic tutors in specialized
course areas are also available through the center.
COUNSELING/SUPPORT GROUPS
Individual and group activities are available to students who wish to work on a
personal growth interest or concern or who simply want to have the experience of
being in a support group of people who share some similar characteristics and/or
interests.
VETERANS OF MILITARY SERVICE
Augsburg is approved by the State Approving Agency for Veterans Training.
Veterans should consult with the Office of the Registrar about completion of the
enrollment certificate and the forwarding of other information to the Veterans
Administration. (Please refer to the Augsburg College Catalog for more detailed
information.)
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) i t 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 Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a variety of general and
specific subject areas. For more information, contact the Admissions Office
(330-1 002)
DEPARTMENTAL ASSESSMENT
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and do 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 Office (330-1036).
CAP (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).

There are a number of ways in which students may receive assistance in meeting
the costs of Augsburg Weekend College. The Financial Aid Office will assist adults
in assessing financial need and constructing an aidlpayment program from the
following alternatives:
COMPANY TUITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS
Many companies, agencies, and corporations offer full or partial tuition assistance
to employees who participate in work-related or degree-oriented college programs.
Augsburg provides several payment plans by which employees may handle tuition
reimbursement.
PELL GRANT
This is a federal aid program, based on need, that is available to students who
take at least one course in Weekend College.
MINNESOTA PART-TIME STUDENT GRANT PROGRAM
The State of Minnesota provides an aid program, based on need,,for state
residents who take a part-time load in an eligible Minnesota institution such as
Augsburg College.
AUGSBURG TUITION GRANT
Augsburg College will provide grants and scholarships to Weekend College
students who show academic potential and have financial need.
SPECIAL GRADING PROCEDURES
Most courses are offered with grading options - traditional grading on a 4.0 to 0.0
scale or the PassINo Credit system, in which "P" means a grade of 2.0 or better
and "Nu means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0. A student may not take more
than 8 courses on a PIN grading system, with only 2 courses in the major. Students
are cautioned to use the PIN grade option with care since some graduate and
professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of P-graded courses.
An incomplete grade may be given only in the case of extreme emergency. To
receive it, a student must file a petition 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 trimester, or it becomes the grade submitted by the teacher
along with the incomplete.
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 week 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.
GUARANTEED STUDENT LOAN/MINNESOTA STATE STUDENT LOAN PROGRAM
Students must carry at least one-half the normal full-time load. Eligibility for the
loan is determined by the Office of Student Financial Services. When repayment
begins, the student pays the full interest at 8%. The maximum loan is $2,500 per
year or the cost of education, whichever is less, and the aggregate undergraduate
maximum is $12,500. Loan applications are available at Augsburg, some banks,
and the Minnesota State Loan Office.

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 Fairview and St. Mary's
hospitals, the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota and the
Mississippi River parkways.
CAMPUS
Skyways, tunnels and elevators provide accessible connection between 9 of the 14
major buildings - student housing towers, College Center, main academic and
administrative halls, the Library and Music building.
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 the nine 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 American Lutheran Church. About 51% of the
students are Lutheran, 15% other Protestant and 15% Roman Catholic. Several
other affiliations are represented among students and faculty.
NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY
Augsburg College does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, national or
ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX of the
1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
as amended in its admission policies, educational programs, activities, and
employment practices.

About Augsburg College
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 Fairview and St. Mary's
hospitals, the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota and the
Mississippi River parkways.
Campus
Skyways, tunnels and elevators provide accessible connection between 9 of the 14
major buildings - student housing towers, College Center, main academic and
administrative halls, the Library and Music building.
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 the nine 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 American Lutheran Church. About 51% of the
students are Lutheran, 15%other Protestant and 15%Roman Catholic. Several
other affiliations are represented among students and faculty.
Non-Discrimination Policy
Augsburg College does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, national or
ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX of the
1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
as amended in its admission policies, educational programs, activities, and
employment practices.
Introduction to Augsburg Weekend College
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 bachelor's degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a personal interest in
one or more areas of the liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
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 men
and women who enroll in Weekend College will be mature, selfdisciplined 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 meet on alternate weekends for
three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each class selected by the student involves commitment
to one of these four class periods. Weekend College students may take from one to
four different courses by attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg 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 such as the library and college
center, to take the opportunity of having shared meals and coffee breaks, to participate in optional chapel services and lunchtime seminars, and to attend other college
activities such as music and dramatic presentations and athletic events.

take courses toward their major during the freshman and sophomore years, enroll
in Orientation to Education in the sophomore year and apply for teacher education not later than the fall of their junior year. In addition to planning their
courses with the English department chairperson, students should consult an
advisor in the Department of Education.
New licensure rules become effective July 1, 1989. Students who seek licensure
after that time will be subject to the new licensure rules.
Major for Secondary Teaching Licensure in Social Studies
Students preparing to teach social studies 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 broad foundation in the
social sciences. Students must complete a major in one of five fields-Economics,

nglish
Those who study English believe that an intense concern for words, ideas and
images helps us understand who we are and who we can become. Writing helps us
clarify and share our thoughts. Literature helps us contemplate the 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 contemplation oE
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 communications,
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: 9 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 on literature before 1660 (for example, 331 or 438) and one that
surveys a number of writers (336, 337,423). Majors are encouraged to take
ENG 245 early in their college work and to consult their departmental advisor
regularly. A student with a double major or special program that involves considerable work in the English department should also work closely with an
advisor in the department.

Payment Options
Tuition is set on an annual basis payable in 3 equal installments at the beginning of
each Trimester. Registration is permitted only if the student's account for a previous term is paid in full as agreed. Augsburg College will not release Academic
transcripts until all student accounts are paid in full or, in the case of student loan
funds administered by the College (National Direct Student Loan), are current
according to established repayment schedules.
Augsburg Offers the Following Payment Options:
1) Trimester payments in full on day of Registration.
2) Payment Plan - Upon application and after College approval, a 3 month plan is
available each trimester.
3) Company Reimbursement - Full courses, or equivalent, which are company
reimbursed require a deposit of $100 per course reimbursed, with full payment
due within 45 days from the end of the term.
Refund Schedule
A per course tuition refund will be made on the following basis: (Students are
responsible for cancelling courses with the Registrar's Office in order to be eligible
for the tuition refund.)
Prior to the first scheduled class meeting - 100% (less a $75 Administrative Fee)
Prior to the second scheduled class meeting - 80%
Prior to the third scheduled class meeting - 60%
No refund after the third scheduled class meeting.
The refund schedule is eflecfive whefheror nof a student has allended classes.
All refunds of charges will be applied to the account of the student and all
adjustments for aid, loans, fines, and deposits, etc. will be made before eligibility
for a cash refund of any resulting credit balance is determined.
Special Grading Procedures
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. A student may not take
more than 8 courses on a PIN grading system, with only 2 courses in the major.
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.
An incomplete grade may be given only in the case of extreme emergency. To
receive it, a student must file a petition 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 trimester, or it becomes the grade submitted by
the teacher along with the incomplete.
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 week 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.
Dean's List
The Dean's List is compiled after 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 incompletes in
courses offered for credit.
Probation and Dismissal
A student will be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term if his or
her achievement is unsatisfactory. A student who has been on probation two or
more consecutive semesters is subject to dismissal at the end of the term. Dismissal
from the College is not automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on
Student Standing. A student who has a poor academic record may be strongly
advised to withdraw before the end of the term. A student who has been on
probation for two terms and withdraws from the College voluntarily must have
special permission to re-enroll.
Student Support Services
Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to assist adults
in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the academic tasks of a
college education, working on their own personal development, and participating
in activities beyond the classroom. Some of these services are:
Academic Planning
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert academic
advising services on an on-going basis to provide for efficient, effective planning.
Students enrolling in Weekend College who have had college experience will have
their previous work evaluated early in the admissions process.
Career Planning Services
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in assessing
their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in combination with sound
academic advising from faculty in a chosen major field, can result in an appropriate and manageable educational and career plan for the individual involved.
Academic Skills Center
This center exists to help students enhance their skills in the areas of writing,
reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic tutors in specialized
course areas are also available through the center.
Counseling/Support Groups
Individual and group activities are available to students who wish to work on a
personal growth interest or concern or who simply want to have the experience of
being in a support group of people who share some similar characteristics
and/or interests.
Veterans of Military Service
Augsburg is approved by the State Approving Agency for Veterans Training.
Veterans should consult with the Office of the Registrar about completion of the
enrollment certificate and the forwarding of other information to the Veterans
Administration. (Please refer to the Augsburg College Catalog for more
detailed information.)
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 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 Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a variety of general and
specific subject areas. For more information, contact the Admissions Oftice
(330-1001).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and do 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).
CAP (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).

Essential to the goals of Augsburg 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 oi 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
library and college center, to take the opportunity of having shared
meals and coffee breaks, to participate in optional chapel services and
lunchtime seminars, and to attend other college activities such as music
and dramatic presentations and athletic events.

STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES
Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to
assist adults in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the
academic tasks of a college education, working on their own personal
development, and participating in activities beyond the classroom.
Some of these services are:
Academic Planning
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert
academic advising services on an on-going basis to provide for
efficient, effective planning. Students enrolling in Weekend College who
have had college experience will have their previous work evaluated
early in the admissions process.
Career Planning Services
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in
assessing their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in
combination with sound academic advising from faculty in a chosen
major field, can result in an appropriate and manageable educational
and career plan for the individual involved.
Academic Skills Center
This center exists to help students enhance their skills in the areas of
writing, reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic
tutors in specialized course areas are also available through the Center.
CounselinglSupport Groups
Individual and group activities are available to students who wish to
work on a personal growth interest or concern or who simply want to
have the experience of being in a support group of people who share
some similar characteristics and/or interests.
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 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 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 Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a
variety of general and specific subject areas. For more information,
contact the Admissions Office (330-1002).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and
do 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
Office (330-1036).
CAP (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. Informational 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).

College students who show academic potential and have financial need.

campuses in the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any
of the nine 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.

About Augsburg College -Campus Location
inside back cover
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.
The Adult as Student
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 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 meet on alternate
weekends for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday
morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each class selected
by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods.
Weekend College students may take from one to four different courses
by attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
This bulletin is published for the convenience of Augsburg Weekend
College students. Weekend College is a program of Augsburg
College and is subject to the policies and provisions as stated in the
Augsburg .College catalog.
Essential to the goals of Augsburg 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 such as the
library and college center, to take the opportunity of having shared
meals and coffee breaks, to participate in optional chapel services and
lunchtime seminars, and to attend other college activities such as music
and dramatic presentations and athletic events.
CHARACTERISTICS
OF THE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
Educational Mission
For over a century Augsburg College has emphasized intellectual
freedom in the search for knowledge. Our academic program builds on
a liberal arts foundation to help students understand the past, interpret
the present, and plan for the future.
As in the weekday program, Augsburg Weekend College offers
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 life-long learners, increase their
competence in selected areas of professional work, and accomplish a
higher level of personal growth.
Accreditation and Affiliations
Augsburg College is fully accredited by the North Central Association of
Colleges and Secondary Schools and The National Council for the
Accreditation of Teacher Education (Secondary and Elementary). Our
programs are approved by The American Chemical Society, The
Council on Social Work Education and the National League for Nursing.
We are a member of the Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities
(ACTC), Lutheran Education Council in North America, Minnesota
Private College Council, National Association for Music Therapy, Inc.,
and are registered with the Minnesota Higher Education Coordinating
Board (HECB).
Faculty
Augsburg College prides itself on its highly qualified faculty. Members of
the faculty serve as academic advisers to students who are in the premajor stage of planning as well as to students in declared major fields.
Library
Students and faculty use a carefully selected library of some 138,000
volumes plus audio-visual materials, with access to over 5,000,000
volumes through the Twin Cities private college consortium and Minitex.
lnternships
lnternships on and off campus are an established part of most
academic programs, helping students make career choices and develop
experience in their chosen fields.

to an already completed college degree. The following information

Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to
assist adults in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the
academic tasks of a college education, working on their own personal
development, and participating in activities beyond the classroom.
Some of these services are:
Academic Planning
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert
academic advising services on an on-going basis to provide for
efficient, effective planning. Students enrolling in Weekend College who
have had college experience will have their previous work evaluated
early in the admissions process.
Career Planning Services
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in
assessing their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in
combination with sound academic advising from faculty in a chosen
major field, can result in an appropriate and manageable educational
and career plan for the individual involved.
Academic Skills Center
This center exists to help students enhance their skills in the areas of
writing, reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic
tutors in specialized course areas are also available through the Center.
CounselinglSupport Groups
Individual and group activities are available to students who wish to
work on a personal growth interest or concern or who simply want to
have the experience of being in a support group of people who share
some similar characteristics and/or interests.
DEAN'S LIST
The Dean's list is published after each trimester, listing students whose grade
point average for the trimester is 3.5 or better, based on a minimum of two full
courses, or equivalent, graded on the traditional grading system, with no
incompletes in the courses offered for credit.
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 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 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 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 Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a
variety of general and specific subject areas. For more information,
contact the Admissions Office (330-1002).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and
do 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
Office (330-1036).
CAP (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. Informational 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).

ABOUT AUGSBURG COLLEGE
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 Fairview and St. Mary's hospitals, the West Bank campus
of the University of Minnesota and the Mississippi River parkways.
Campus
Skyways, tunnels and elevators provide accessible connection between
9 of the 14 major buildings-student housing towers, College Center,
main academic and administrative halls, the Library and Music building.
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 the nine 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 American Lutheran Church. About 51 % of
the students are Lutheran, 15% other Protestant and 15% Roman
Catholic. Several other affiliations are represented among students and
faculty.
Nondiscrimination Policy
Augsburg College does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed,
national or ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required
by Title IX of the 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended in its admission policies,
educational programs, activities, and employment practices.

Introduction to Augsburg Weekend College
Purpose
I
I
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
bachelor's degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for
career change, or pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
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 men and women who enroll in Weekend College
will be mature, self-disciplined and well-motivated adult learners who
seek a balance of classroclm 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 meet on alternate
weekends for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday
morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon.* Each class selected
by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods.
Weekend College students may take from one to four different courses by
attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg 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 such as the
library and college 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.
*Laboratory sections or additional class hours may be scheduled on evenings
during the week.
Information Sessions
Adults who are interested in Augsburg Weekend College are encouraged
to attend one of the information sessions that are scheduled throughout
the year. These information sessions are free of charge and are
approximately 2 hours in length. Please call the Weekend College Office

Students preparing to teach social studies 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 broad foundation in the social sciences. Students must
complete a major in one of five fields - Economics, History, Political
Science, Psychology or Sociology (the History major is described below)
plus 7 courses (ECO 112 or 113, Human Geography, HIS 222, POL 158,
PSY 105, SOC 121 and 336). Students considering a career in social
studies education should consult, as soon as possible, the Augsburg
Department of Education and the Social Studies Coordinator.
History Major: 8 courses plus 1seminar. At least four of these courses
must be upper division. A major must have at least one course (either
survey or upper level) from each of the four areas: Ancient and Medieval;
Modern Europe; U.S.; and non-Western.
English
Those who study English believe that an intense concern for words, ideas
and images helps us understand who we are and who we can become.
Writing helps us clarify and share our thoughts. Literature helps us
contemplate the 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 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 communications,
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: 9 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 on literature before 1660 (for example, 331
or 438) and one that surveys a number of writers (336, 337, 423). Majors
are encouraged to take ENG 245 early in their college work and to consult
their departmental advisor regularly. A student with a double major or
special program that involves considerable work in the English
department should also work closely with an advisor in the department.
Note: Transfer students must take at least three of their English courses
at Augsburg.
English-Language ArtsTeaching Major: 10 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 nonWestern literature. In addition, the ACTC courses Communications Skills
in the English Classroom and 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 on weekends. Students in this program must work with
advisers in the English Department and the Education Department in
order to meet the professional requirements within the Education
Department as well as requirements in the major.
Students in this program who are transferring from other colleges should
consult the English department chair soon after enrolling.
Minor: 5 courses above 111including one course in British literature and
one writing course above the freshman level (223, 225, 226, or 227).
Management Information Systems (MIS)
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.

with no incompletes in courses offered for credit.
Probation and Dismissal
A student will be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term if
his or her achievement is unsatisfactory. Dismissal from the College is not
automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on Student Standing.
A student who has a poor academic record may be strongly advised to
withdraw before the end of the term. A student who has been on
probation for two terms and withdraws from the College voluntarily must
have special permission to re-enroll. See Augsburg College Catalog for
complete explanation.
Grading Procedures
Evaluation and Grading
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 PasslNo 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 PIN grade option with care since some graduate
and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of Pgraded 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 PIN limitations under
Graduation Requirements in the Augsburg College Catalog.
Certain courses are offered on one grading system only. Sociology 265 is
graded only on the PIN grading system and some education courses are
graded only on the PIN system or only on the traditional system. English
111is graded P or N, or 2.0-4.01N. Some other courses are graded only P,
1.0, N. Lifetime Sports are graded P1O.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 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 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 extreme
emergency, To receive it, a student must file a petition 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. The Registrar's Office will
automatically continue the registration in response to an X grade. A final
grade will be issued at the end of the term in whcih 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 reregistration 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 with 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 PIN 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.
Sophomores - 7 courses completed with at least 14 grade points.
Junior - 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 week
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 GI'A
To 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
demonstratebeither.b_y_comprehensi~nex~or.~mmittee
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 Augsburg 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 do
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 Office
(330-1036).
CAP (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).

Introduction to Augsburg Weekend College
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
bachelor's degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for
career change, or pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
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 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 meet on alternate
weekends for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday
morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon.* Each class selected
by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods.
Weekend College students may take from one to four different courses by
attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg 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 such as the
library and college 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.
*Laboratory sections or additional class hours may be scheduled on evenings
during the week.
Information Sessions
Adults who are interested in Augsburg Weekend College are encouraged
to attend one of the information sessions that are scheduled throughout
the year. These information sessions are free of charge and are
approximately 2 hours in length. Please call the Weekend College Office
(330-1782) to receive further details on these information sessions or to

Coaching Endorsement
Students interested in adding a coaching endorsement must complete

English
Those who study English believe that an intense concern for words, ideas
and images helps us understand who we are and who we can become.
Writing helps us clarify and share our thoughts. Literature helps us
contemplate the 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 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 communications,
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: 9 courses above 111, including 225; one course in American
literature; one course in Western literary tradition (271or 272); and three
courses in British literature, one on literature before 1660 (for example, 331
or 438) and one that surveys a number of writers (336,337, 423). Majors
are encouraged to take ENG 245 early in their college work and to consult
their departmental advisor regularly. A student with a double major or
special program that involves considerable work in the English
department should also work closely with an advisor in the department.
English-Language Arts Teaching Major: 10 courses, including those
listed under the major, a course in linguistics, and an internship in the
teaching of writing. One course must include a component in nonWestern literature. In addition, the ACTC courses Communications Skills
in the English Classroom and Teaching Mass Media are required.
Courses in early American literature, Shakespeare, and film are
recommended. Several of the required courses are not offered on
Weekends. Students in this program must work with advisers in the
English Department and the Education Department in order to meet the
professional requirements within the Education Department as well as
requirements in the major.
New licensure rules become effective July 1, 1989. Students who seek
licensure after that time will be subject to the new licensure rules.
Minor: 5 courses above 111including one course in British literature and
one writing course above the freshman level (223, 225, 226, or 227).
Management Information Systems (MIS)

Nursing
Augsburg Weekend College offers registered nurses an upper division
nursing major as a second step toward the completion of the Bachelor of
Science degree. Fully accredited by the National League for Nursing, this
major is a professional program that is accessible on weekends to nurses
who are unable to attend classes during the weekdays. Classes are
primarily scheduled on alternate weekends, but all courses in the major
may have additional class or lab hours beyond the weekend schedule.
Admissions Procedures
Admission to the nursing program includes first being accepted into
Augsburg Weekend College through the procedures described on page
66. As candidates for the nursing major, RNs must demonstrate
evidence of completion of an associate degree or diploma program,
current nursing practice, and Minnesota licensure. While an RN may take
general education courses and prerequisite courses for the nursing major,
further progress in the major is contingent upon:
1. Satisfactory completion at a college or university of the prerequisite
courses: Anatomy and Physiology, Microbiology, Inorganic Chemistry,
Organic or Biochemistry, English Composition, Introductory
Sociology and Introductory Psychology.
2. A cumulative gradepoint average of at least 2.5
3. Successful completion of testing to validate lower division nursing
knowledge.

Social Work
Accredited by the Council on Social Work Education, the Bachelor of
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 appreciation for the needs,
concerns, and values of the individuals and groups who constitute
today's multi-cultural society. The Social Work major in Augsburg
Weekend College includes seven courses from the departments of
psychology, biology, and sociology. Concentrations are possible in the
areas of aging, chemical dependency, corrections, social ministries, and
youth work. Field work is an important component of the program.

6 courses including 257 or department approved alternative internship,
361, 463; Psychology 351 or Sociology 375; Sociology 265; and Political
Science 121or 158 or 325, or Social Work 465.
Minors
In addition to minors offered in Business, Communication, MIS and
Social Welfare (listed under each respective major), Weekend College
students are able to complete minors in the following areas:
Psychology Minor
5 courses including 105, with a minimum of 2 courses at Augsburg. Not
more than one course from 299,399 and 499 may be counted toward the
minor.
Religion Minor
5 courses approved by the department.
Sociology Minor
5 courses including 121 and two upper division courses (numbered 300
and above).
Dean's List
The Dean's List is compiled after 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 incompletes in courses offered for credit.
Probation and Dismissal
A student will be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term if
his or her achievement is unsatisfactory. Dismissal from the College is not
automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on Student Standing.
A student who has a poor academic record may be strongly advised to
withdraw before the end of the term. A student who has been on
probation for two terms and withdraws from the College voluntarily must
have special permission to re-enroll. See Augsburg College Catalog for
complete explanation.
Grading Procedures
Evaluation and Grading
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 PasslNo 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 PIN grade option with care since some graduate
and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of Pgraded 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 PIN limitations under
Graduation Requirements in the Augsburg College Catalog.
Certain courses are offered on one grading system only. Sociology 265 is
graded only on the PIN grading system and some education courses are
graded only on the PIN system or only on the traditional system. English
111is graded P or N, or 2.0-4.01N. Some other courses are graded only P,
1.0, N. Lifetime Sports are graded P1O.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 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 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 extreme
emergency. To receive it, a student must file a petition 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. The Registrar's Office will
automatically continue the registration in response to an X grade. A final
grade will be issued at the end of the term in whcih 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 reregistration 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 with 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 PIN 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.
Sophomores - 7 courses completed with at least 14 grade points.
Junior - 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 week
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
To 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 Augsburg 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 do
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 Office
(330-1036).
CAP (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).
