Augsburg graduates will be able to demonstrate not only the mastery of a major field of study, but also the ability to think critically, solve problems, act ethically and communicate effectively in a global world. The heart of an Augsburg education is the Augsburg mission, informed by the liberal and professional arts and sciences, to serve our neighbors in the heart of the city with faith-based, ethical values. We welcome students from a diversity of backgrounds and experiences. Also, our programs look to the world through international courses and cultural exchanges. MISSION STATEMENT The mission of Augsburg College is to nurture future leaders in service to the world by providing high quality educational opportunities, which are based in the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community. HISTORY A College of the Church Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September 1869 , in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The first seminarians were enrolled in 1874, and the first graduation was in 1879. Early Leaders Establish a Direction August Weenaas was Augsburg's first president (1869-1876). Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway-Sven Oftedal and Georg Sverdrup. These three men clearly articulated the direction of Augsburg: to educate Norwegian Lutherans to minister to immigrants and to provide such "college" studies that would prepare students for theological study. In 1874 they proposed a three-part plan: first, train ministerial candidates; second, prepare future theological students; and third, educate the farmer, worker, and businessman. The statement stressed that a good education is also practical. and city life. This early interest in professional life as well education is a celebrated theme in our history and has led to the fusion of the liberal and professional arts as a hallmark of the Augsburg College graduate. Augsburg's next two presidents also emphatically rejected ivory tower concepts of education. This commitment to church and community has been Augsburg's theme for over 130 years. After World War II, Augsburg leaders made vigorous efforts to expand and improve academic offerings. Now the College was a larger part of the institution than the seminary and received the most attention. Education for Service Keeping the vision of the democratic college, Georg Sverdrup, Augsburg's second president (1876-1907), required students to get pre-ministerial experience in city congregations. Student involvement in the community gave early expression to the concept of Augsburg's motto, "Education for Service." In the 1890s, Augsburg leaders formed the Friends of Augsburg, later called the Lutheran Free Church. The church was a group of independent congregations committed to congregational autonomy and personal Christianity. This change made Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the small Lutheran body. The college division, however, was still important primarily as an attachment to the seminary. The Focus Changed This attitude began to change after World War I. In 1911 , George Sverdrup Jr, became president. He worked to develop college departments with an appeal to a broader range of students than just those intending to be ministers. Augsburg admitted women in 1922 under the leadership of Gerda Mortensen, dean of women. She spent the next 42 years at the College as a teacher and administrator. The College's mission assumed a double character-ministerial preparation together with a more general education for life in society. In 1937, Augsburg elected Bernhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly teacher, to be president (1938-1962). His involvement in ecumenical and civic circles made Augsburg a more visible part of church Accreditation for the College Augsburg added departments essential to a liberal arts college, offering a modern college program based on general education requirements and elective majors. With curriculum change came a concerted effort to become accredited. Full accreditation was achieved in 1954. A study in 1962 defined the College's mission as serving the good of society first and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church second. The seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther Seminary) in St. Paul in 1963 when the Lutheran Free Church merged with the American Lutheran Church. Subsequently, the American Lutheran Church merged with two other Lutheran bodies in 1988 to form the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Students at Augsburg College benefit from the Lutheran tradition of service to your neighbor and faith in the city. A College in the City Paul C. Pribbenow became the 10th president of Augsburg College in July 2006. Under his leadership, the College aims to educate students of all ages-in the midst of a great city-to be faithful citizens, in service to the world. AUGSBURG TODAY Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the founders who believed: • Education should have a solid liberal arts core at the graduate level; this focus centers on the ability to think critically and broadly about the world and the work we do in it; 1 • An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community and centers of faith; • The city-with all its excitement, challenges, and diversity-is an unequaled learning environment. Augsburg is a college of the liberal and professional arts and sciences, with its main campus set in the heart of a great metropolitan center. There are now over 20,000 Augsburg alumni. In a world that has changed much since those first days of the College, Augsburg still sends out graduates who make a difference where they live and work. In addition to undergraduate liberal arts and sciences, Augsburg offers master's degree programs in education, leadership, nursing, business, physician assistant studies, and social work, plus a dual degree MSW/MA or MSW/MDiv with Luther Seminary Augsburg is enhanced by its global centers in Namibia, Mexico, and Central America. Students can perform research, take courses, or consult with faculty in those locations to gain new perspectives on their discipline. A Community of Learners Essential to the goals of Augsburg's graduate programs is participation in a community of adult learners. This community is enriched by the presence of men and women with a variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages students to make use of all College facilities such as Lindell Library, the Kennedy Center, and the Christensen Center, and to participate in College activities such as music and dramatic presentations and athletic events. Graduate Faculty The heart of any educational institution is its faculty, and Augsburg College is particularly proud of the excellence and commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold the doctorate or other terminal degree, and all consider teaching and service to be the focus of their activity at the College. Faculty are involved in social, professional, and a variety of research activities, but these support and are secondary to their 2 teaching. Faculty are actively involved in a dynamic faculty development program that introduces them to best practices in teaching and learning techniques and theories. www.augsburg.edu/rochester or by calling the Adult and Graduate Admissions Office at 612-330-1101, or the Rochester program office at 507-288-2886.

Academic Programs and Policies ACADEMIC CALENDARS Most of our graduate programs meet on a trimester calendar. Physician Assistant Studies classes meet on a semester day schedule. The academic calendars for individual programs can be found at www.augsburg.edu/registrar. All academic calendars are subject to change. ACADEMIC POLICIES The College and its faculty subscribe to the Statement of Principles on Academic Freedom as promulgated by the American Association of University Professors and the Association of American Colleges. Academic Honesty A college is a community of learners whose relationship relies on trust. Honesty is necessary to preserve the integrity and credibility of scholarship by the Augsburg College community. Academic dishonesty, therefore, is not tolerated. As a College requirement, student course projects, papers, and examinations may include a statement by the student pledging to abide by the College's academic honesty policies and to uphold the highest standards of academic integrity. (See Augsburg's Academic Honesty Policy in the Student Guide at www.augsburg.edu/studentguide/) Academic Evaluation Evaluation of academic performance in each program will be based on number grades using a 4.0 point scale, where 4.0 achieves highest standards of excellence. See each program for details of field study and special projects. Students must achieve a 3.0 GPA in order to graduate; Physician Assistant students must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy. Withdrawn Status W-Grade given when a student withdraws from a course after the deadline without notation on the record Incomplete (I) Grades An incomplete grade (I) may be awarded when the instructor gran ts permission after determining that a student emergency may delay completion of coursework. Students who receive an incomplete grade should be capable of passing the course if they satisfactorily complete outstanding course requirements. To receive an incomplete grade, a student must file an Application for incomplete Grade form with the Office of the Registrar that states the reasons for the request, outlines the work required to complete the course, and includes the course instructor's signature. The instructor may stipulate the terms and conditions that apply to course completion; however, students may not attend the same course (or a portion of the same course) in a following term with an incomplete grade. The student must complete the outstanding work in enough time to allow evaluation of the work by the instructor and the filing of a grade before the final day of the following academic term in the student's program. If the work is not completed by the specified date of the following academic term, the grade for the course becomes 0.0. Academic Probation Graduate students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. If a student falls below a 3.0 average, the student will be placed on academic probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point average must be restored in order for a student to be removed from probation. Graduate students in the Physician Assistan must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy. Attendance Policy Class attendance is expected and should be considered a responsibility, not only to one's self, but to one's classmates and course instructor. Students must notify the professor in advance of any expected absence. In the case of emergency, when prior notification is not possible, students must notify the professor of an absence as soon as possible. Continuation Policy for Thesis or Final Project Students enrolled in a thesis or final project are subject to a continuation fee schedule after the term in which tuition was paid for the project. These continuation fees maintain a student's library, AugNet, and parking privileges while work on the final project is ongoing. During this time of research and writing, students pay either a $10 campus access fee or a $200 continuation fee each term until the project is completed, or until the time limit for project completion is reached. The schedule for when each fee is applied varies among programs. Course credit and contact hours A full credit course (1.0) is equal to four semester credits or six quarter credits. Each full course on the trimester schedule meets for approximately 28 contact hours (MSW trimesters meet for 32 hours, and the PA weekday semester schedule is approximately 45 hours) with the expectation of substantial independent and group study offered through the web-based electronic course management system. Degree Requirements To be conferred the graduate degree, all graduate students must achieve the following: • Successful completion of all required courses • A cumulative GPA of 3.0; Physician Assistant students must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy. • Successful completion of all degree requirements within the stipulated period of matriculation or a signed continuation agreement with Augsburg College. Dismissal for Academic Performance A student whose GPA falls below the required GPA for his/her graduate program (3 .0 in most programs) in two or more terms may be subject to probation or dismissal. A plan for the student to continue in the program may be worked out with the program director. 5 Dismissal for Non-Professional Behavior Students may be dismissed for violation of standards of behavior defined by their profession, their program, or the College. Dropping Courses or Withdrawing Students who enroll in courses but later decide not to attend must formally drop their courses through the registrar's office prior to the start of classes to avoid being charged for those courses. Students who do not properly drop courses will be responsible for the tuition, regardless of non-attendance. Courses may be dropped or withdrawn online through AugNet Records and Registration or in person at the Enrollment Center during hours of operation. If you need assistance with this, contact your program faculty at least two days in advance of the start of classes. Independent Study Students may request to complete an independent study course as an addition to the required coursework. A faculty sponsor is required for an independent study project, and project proposals must be approved by the program director in order to receive credit. Independent study may not be used as a replacement for a standard course offered in the curriculum, with the exception of the general elective (if approved). A special independent study registration form is required and is available at the Enrollment Center. Terms of Non-attendance Students who interrupt their program enrollment for longer than one semester or three trimesters must readmit to the College and program to resume their degree program. For an absence of any length, students should coordinate with their program director prior to leaving. Due to a variety of program schedules and cohorts for some degrees, it is required that students meet with their adviser and obtain the advice of their director. Evaluation of Transfer Credit Students may petition the program director for transfer credit to apply to program requirements. The transfer of credit will be evaluated on an individual basis. Students will be asked to provide 6 appropriate documentation regarding previous coursework, including but not limited to an official transcript, course description, and syllabus. In order to be considered for transfer, a course must be from a regionally-accredited college or university and graded 3.0/B or better. Courses must have been taken at the graduate level and course content must be comparable to program requirements at Augsburg. The maximum number of course credits that can be transferred to these program is as follows: Master of Arts in Education (2.0) Master of Arts in Leadership (2.0) the college community in regard to their personal and professional concerns. However, times do occur in which students think they have been mistreated. This procedure is provided in order to ensure that students are aware of the way in which their problems with faculty members can be resolved informally and to provide a more formal conciliation process when needed. Each student must be given adequate opportunity to bring problems to the attention of the faculty with the assurance that each will be given fair treatment. The faculty member must be fully informed of the allegations and given an opportunity to respond to them in a fair and reasonable manner. Master of Arts in Nursing (3.0) Master of Business Administration ( 6.0) Master of Science, Physician Assistant Studies (Contact program coordinator) Master of Social Work (8.0) Augsburg course credits are equivalent to four semester hours or six quarter hours. Therefore, transfer credits that are reported to Augsburg as semester or quarter hours are converted to Augsburg course credits by dividing by four or six respectively Courses and credits that are accepted in transfer are recorded on the student's transcript. Grades and gradepoints from other institutions are not transferred to Augsburg and are not included in the student's cumulative grade point average. STUDENT RIGHTS The College has adopted a statement of student rights and responsibilities and has provided for due process in the matter of disciplinary action, grievances, and grade appeal, as outlined in the Augsburg Student Guide, at www.augsburg.edu/studentguide. Students have a right to experience education without discrimination. Grievance Procedures Involving Augsburg College Faculty Members and Students Part I-Introduction/Preface Augsburg College is committed to a policy of treating fairly all members of Definition of Grievance A grievance is defined as dissatisfaction occurring when a student believes that any conduct or condition affecting her/him is unjust or inequitable, or creates unnecessary hardship. Such grievances include, but are not limited to a violation, misinterpretation, or inequitable application of an academic rule, regulation, or policy of the College or prejudicial, capricious, or manifestly unjust academic evaluation. College policies and procedures that do not come within the scope of the Grievance Procedures are the sexual harassment policy, the sexual violence policy, the Committee on Financial Petitions, Discipline Process, and Academic Standing. Time Limits Time limits will include only business days (M-F) for the program in which the student was enrolled. (Weekends, and vacation days are not included; summer may not be included depending on the student's program.) Part II-Informal Process It is always the student's responsibility to know these procedures and timelines and to follow them. A. Any time a student feels that she/he has been mistreated by a faculty member, the student should contact the faculty member to discuss the problem and attempt to resolve it. B. If no mutually satisfactory solution can be reached with the faculty member or if, in unusual circumstances, the student prefers not to confer with the faculty member, the student should discuss the problem with the department chairperson of the faculty member and attempt resolution of the problem. C. If the problem cannot be resolved in discussions with the faculty member or department chairperson, or if the faculty member and the department chairperson are the same individual, the student may contact the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College. D. The student must begin the Informal Grievance process within 15 days of the conduct giving rise to the grievance, by submitting an Informal Grievance Form to the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College. • The time limit to begin the Informal Grievance process for a grade appeal will be 30 days from the last published finals date for the relevant term. It is the responsibility of the student to maintain a correct and current address on file with the registrar. request for such extension before the end of the time limit. If the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College thinks the extension is warranted, the Dean will notify all concerned persons in writing. E. If the grievance has been resolved, either by agreement or by expiration of the time limits, a copy of the informal grievance and statements of the resolution will be kept by the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College for one year. Neither a copy of nor any reference to the grievance will be placed in the personnel file of the respondent. If these informal discussions do not resolve the problem to the satisfaction of the student, a more formal conciliation procedure is available in Part Ill of this document. Note: A student must file a written grievance, per below, within five days after completion of the informal process Part III- Formal Process Preface If a student has a grievance with a faculty member that has not been resolved through the Informal Grievance Process described in Part II of this document, the student may then seek resolution through formal procedures. • The vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College and the student must ensure the informal process is completed in 20 days . (See Part I for definition of time limits.) • In unusual circumstances, the time limit may be extended by the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College . A grievant or respondent must submit a written In accordance with FERPA, you are notified of the following: Right to inspect and review education records You have the right to review and inspect substantially all of your education records maintained by or at Augsburg College. Your request should be submitted in writing at least one week prior to the date you wish to review your records. Right to request amendment of education records You have the right to seek to have corrected any parts of an education record that you believe to be inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of your right to privacy This includes the right to a hearing to present evidence that the record should be changed if Augsburg decides not to alter your education records as you requested. For a complete copy of the procedures, contact the dean's office, Academic Affairs. Right to give permission for disclosure of personally identifiable information You have the right to be asked and to give Augsburg your permission to disclose personally identifiable information contained in your education records, except to the extent that FERPA and the regulations regarding FERPA authorize disclosure without your permission. FER PA The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 as amended, provides certain rights to students regarding their education records. Augsburg College understands that no information other than "directory information" can be released without the written permission of the student. Students must give permission in writing for educational information to be released to anyone outside of the official personnel (faculty and administration) at Augsburg. For example, this means that faculty or others cannot write letters of support/recommendation or nominate students for awards unless explicit written permission is given by the student to release non-"directory information." It is not sufficient to ask for letters of recommendation. (See One exception which permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate education interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health stafD; person or company with whom the College has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees, or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility • If the student could not reasonably be expected to be aware of the conduct when it occurred, the student will have 15 days to file the grievance from the date on which the student could reasonably be expected to be aware of the conduct or condition that is the basis for the grievance . It is the responsibility of the student to establish the reasonableness of such non-awareness. The vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College will determine if this paragraph applies to a grievant. Physician Assistant Studies for details of its program policy) 7 Right to withhold disclosure of "directory information" FERPA uses the term "Directory Information" to refer to those categories of personally identifiable information that may be released for any purpose at the discretion of Augsburg College without notification of the request or disclosure to the student. Under FERPA you have the right to withhold the disclosure of the directory information listed below. Please consider very carefully the consequences of any decision by you to withhold directory information. Should you decide to inform Augsburg College not to release Directory Information, any future request for such information from persons or organizations outside of Augsburg College will be refused. "Directory information" includes the following: • The student's name; • The student's address; • The student's telephone number; • The student's e-mail address; • The student's date and place of birth; • The student's major and minor field of study; • The student's academic class level; • The student's enrollment status (FT/HT/LHT); • The student's participation in officially recognized activities and sports; • The student's degrees and awards received; • The weight and height of members of athletic teams; • The student's dates of attendance; • The most recent previous educational agency or institution attended by the student; and • The student's photograph. Augsburg College will honor your request to withhold all Directory Information but cannot assume responsibility to contact you for subsequent permission to release it. Augsburg assumes no liability for honoring your instructions that such information be withheld. The Office of the Registrar 8 must be notified in writing of your intent to withhold your Directory Information. If the notice is not received by the registrar prior to Sept. 15 (or within 10 school days of the start of a subsequent term for a new student), it will be assumed that all Directory Information may be disclosed for the remainder of the current academic year. A new notice for withholding disclosure must be completed each academic year. Right to complain to FERPA Office You have the right to file a complaint with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Ave. S.W, Washington, D.C., 20202-4605, concerning Augsburg's failure to comply with FERPA. Reporting Educational Information Letters of reference must be requested in writing and explicitly indicate what information may be reported in the letter. GRADUATE ADMISSIONS Admission to Augsburg College All graduate programs require students to have a bachelor's degree from a regionally-accredited four-year institution. All graduate students must submit completed application forms that can be downloaded from each individual program's web page, as listed below. Each graduate program also has additional program requirements, which may include coursework, professional experience, testing, etc. See the program sections for these additional requirements.

A student acquires F-1 status using form 1-20, issued by a DBS-approved school through SEVIS. Status is acquired in one of two ways: 1) if the student is abroad, by entering the United States with the I-20 and an F-1 visa obtained at a U.S . consulate (although citizens of some countries are exempt from the visa requirement); or 2) if the student is already in the United States and not currently in F-1 status, by sending the 1-20 to USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) with an application for change of nonimmigrant status. A student who is maintaining valid F-1 status may transfer from another DHSapproved school to Augsburg by following the transfer procedures set forth in the F-1 regulations. Simply transferring academically from another school to Augsburg does not transfer a student's F-1 status unless the student and a Designated School Official (DSO) from Augsburg follow these procedures. The last day to receive approval for readmission to the College and register for classes is one business day prior to the start of the term. Pending approval by the graduate program, students who left on probation or who were dismissed from the College must have their readmission application and file reviewed by the program director. (Please consult with individual programs for information regarding readmission process). In addition to fulfilling all general admission requirements for a particular graduate program, prospective F-1 students must also comply with the following: ADMISSION OF INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS To fulfill this requirement Augsburg graduate programs require international applicants to submit an official score report from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) with a minimum score of 100 (iBT), 250 (CBT) or 600 (PBT). Augsburg College graduate programs encourage qualified applicants from other countries to apply. An F-1 student is a nonimmigrant who is pursuing a "full course of study" to achieve a specific educational or professional objective at an academic institu- U.S. institution with a minimum of two years of successful academic work completed in the U.S. (seven or more courses) . B. Foreign Credential Evaluation Augsburg requires foreign credential evaluation for any transcript(s) from an institution outside of the United States. This evaluation should include the following: • Analysis of credentials-to determine if your degree is equivalent to an accredited U.S. bachelor's degree. Course-by-course evaluation-to show your complete course listing with credit values and grades received for each course. • Calculation of grade point averageto demonstrate your cumulative grade point average using the standard U.S. grading system, i.e., A=4.0, B=3.0, C=2.0, D=l.0, F=O.O. • Translation to English (if applicable) The evaluation report must be sent directly to Augsburg's Adult and Graduate Admissions Office. Augsburg accepts foreign credential evaluations only from the following organization: World Education Services, Inc. www.wes.org A. Proof of English Competency C. Proof of Financial Support In order to receive an F-1 visa, the U.S. Department of State (DOS) regulations require international applicants to be sufficiently proficient in English to pursue a full course of study. International applicants must provide reliable documentation that they have financial resources adequate to meet expenses for the duration of their academic program, which include tuition and fees, books and supplies, room and board, health insurance, personal expenses , and living expenses for dependents (if applicable). The TOEFL is waived for applicants who have a four-year degree from a Funds may come from any dependable source, including scholarships, fellowships, sponsoring agencies, personal funds, or funds from the student's family. Documentation of scholarships and fellowships may be in the form of an 9 Applicants for graduate study must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). To complete and submit the FAFSA electronically, go to www.augsburg.edu/enroll. For further information, contact the Enrollment Center, 612-330-1046, 1-800-458-1721, enroll@augsburg.edu, or www.augsburg.edu/enroll. If a student is selected for verification, additional documents will be needed. Students in this situation will be contacted by the Enrollment Center. FINANCIAL POLICIES Refund Schedule Students who withdraw from Augsburg College may be eligible for a refund of a portion of their charges based on the appropriate refund schedule (except for the minimum charge of $100 to cover administrative costs). Financial aid may also be adjusted for those students who withdraw from the College or drop one or more courses and receive financial assistance. [NOTE: Tuition refunds and financial aid adjustments are not necessarily made on a one-to-one basis. For example, you could receive a 60% tuition refund but have 80% of your financial aid returned. Be sure you understand the financial consequences of making adjustments to your registration.] Students are responsible for canceling courses through the Enrollment Center in order to be eligible for any refund. Students who unofficially withdraw (stop attending) but do not complete the drop/add form are responsible for all charges. Financial aid may be adjusted based on the student's last recorded date of attendance. Refund calculations are based on the date that the drop/add form is processed. The refund schedule is effective whether or not a student has attended classes. All refunds of charges will be applied to the student account and all adjustments for aid, loans, fines, deposits, etc. will be made before eligibility for a cash refund of any resulting credit balance is determined . Allow two weeks for a refund. The refund is a percentage of the full tuition charged, not a percentage of any deposit paid toward tuition, e.g. deposits made under the employer reimbursement payment plan. 12 CONTAICTTMiE ENROLLMENT C:ENTE'R For info·rm:atlon on eost~ pa~tne11\ts1 flnamli'al aid, tuition disc·ounts, and rr-e~f.uad:s : 13 Master of Arts in Education Master of Arts in Education We are pleased with your interest in the Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program. Augsburg has a long history in teacher education with alumni of our programs teaching throughout Minnesota and elsewhere. We know that Augsburg College is an excellent choice for you to pursue your teaching dreams and goals-and here's why. OUR PHILOSOPHY. The Education Department program theme-Teacher as developing professional: from classroom decision-maker to educational leader-suggests the expectations we have that our students will leave our programs prepared to exercise leadership in the classroom and, eventually, the institution. Our department mission statement goes beyond leadership to also lay out our expectations for fostering "student learning and well-being by being knowledgeable in content, being competent in pedagogy, being ethical in practice, building relationships, embracing diversity, reflecting critically, and collaborating effectively." Our urban setting provides yet another dimension to our programs through course content, field experiences, and classroom instructors. Our goal is that students leave our programs prepared to be knowledgeable, collaborative, capable beginning teachers who imbue their practice with ethics, tolerance, and compassion. OUR FACULTY. Augsburg faculty members who teach in the MAE program are a mix of full-time and adjunct instructors, all of whom have K-12 teaching experience. Many adjunct instructors are currently teaching in K-12 settings; all full-time faculty members are frequent visitors to K-12 settings through student teaching and field experience supervision, volunteer work, and/or in-service education. We understand the importance of what we do and what you hope to do . We value good teaching and, most especially, we value good teachers. OUR ACCESSIBILITY. We realize that although teaching is your dream, your reality most likely includes work, family, and personal responsibilities. Because we understand the demands adult students face, we offer flexible scheduling. A majority of licensure and graduate-level courses are taught in the evenings and weekends to allow you to manage these responsibilities while pursuing your goals. As a student in Augsburg's Master of Arts in Education licensure and degree program, you will find yourself among interesting students and dedicated professors who believe that all children deserve a good, highly qualified teacher-the teacher you can become. Vicki Olson, PhD Director, Master of Arts in Education PROGRAMS ELEMENTARY EDUCATION The Education Department offers initial licenses as well as endorsements for already-licensed teachers that also lead to a master's degree. The range of licenses available is described below. The K-6 elementary with a middle school specialty license allows you to teach in grades K-6 and in your specialty area of math, science, social studies, or language arts in middle school. As an alternative to the middle school specialty, MAE elementary licensure students can pursue a prekindergarten specialty. Licensure requirements are offered at both the undergraduate and graduate level. That means classes will include both undergraduate and graduate students, with graduate students having additional course responsibilities. Graduate courses are taken at the 500 level. Elementary education specialty areas in math, communication arts, and social studies are available through weekend and weekday evening courses. The science specialty area is available through a combination of weekday, weekday evening, and weekend courses. Secondary education licensure is available through weekend and weekday evening courses in social studies, communication arts/literature, and K-12 visual arts. Licenses in other majors, including biology, chemistry, health education, mathematics, music education, physical education, and physics can be completed through a combination of weekend, weekday evening, and weekday courses. All of the following courses must be taken for licensure, and four to six of them may be taken at the graduate (500) level and applied toward the master's degree in education. EDC 200/522 Orientation to Education (1.0)* EDC 206/566 Diversity/Minnesota American Indians (1.0) EDC 310/533 Learning and Development (1.0)* Teachers who are already licensed can work towards the MAE degree through the following four licensure options: EDC 410/544 Learners with Special Needs (1.0)* Pre-K specialty area endorsement EED 320/520 K-6 Methods: Reading (1.0)* EDC 490/580 School and Society (1.0) K-12 special education: emotional and behavioral disabilities K-12 special education: learning disabilities K-12 reading endorsement Education Department Mission To complete the license, you will also need to complete the following requirements at the undergraduate level: HPE 115 Chemical Dependency (.5) EDC 220 Educational Technology (.5) The Augsburg College Education Department commits itself to developing future educational leaders who foster student learning and well-being by becoming knowledgeable in content, competent in pedagogy, and ethical in practice, and by building relationships, embracing diversity, reflecting critically, and collaborating effectively. EED 311 K-6 Methods: Health (.25) Master of Arts in Education Conceptual Framework EED 350 K-6 Methods: Math (1.0) * Teacher leadership is the theme that threads through our graduate licensure and degree completion programs. The Augsburg Education Department believes that teachers are leaders in their classrooms and should be leaders in their institutions and communities. EED 360 K-6 Methods: Science (l.O)* The leadership focus plays out in three ways. First, the additional work required in the graduate versions of the combined undergraduate/graduate courses focuses on providing graduate students the chance to exercise leadership as well as extend their knowledge beyond the basic requirements. Second, in the degree completion component, students are required to include at least two graduate-level courses from our Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL) program. This provides students the chance to study aspects of leadership as part of their degree program. Third, the final project-be it an action research or a leadership application project-gives students the opportunity to define an issue of concern and, supported by research, take on a leadership role in addressing it.

A minimum of 100 hours in the classroom and educationrelated settings is required prior to student teaching. Students spend approximately 20 hours per term in field experiences. These experiences occur in K-8 classrooms during the weekday. Undergraduate Liberal Arts Requirements The number of supporting content area courses required for licensure depends upon the courses completed as part of the bachelor's degree and/or other coursework Requirements are determined by Minnesota licensure standards for specific college-level coursework in math, biology, physics, and earth science for all students seeking elementary licensure. Specific requirements are on file in the Education Department. Minnesota licensure standards in a specialty area for middle school: subject area specialties are offered in communication arts/literature, social studies, math, and science. The pre-K specialty is also available. Specific requirements are on file in the Education Department. Previous coursework can be accepted into the licensure program if i.t meets Minnesota standards and if a grade of C or better was achieved. The Education Department and the content area departments determine the courses that are accepted. Transcripts, course descriptions, and course syllabi are used to make these determinations. Courses that are older than seven years are judged on a case-by-case basis. Graduate coursework accepted into the licensure program is not automatically accepted into the MAE degree.

A minimum of 100 hours in classrooms and education-related settings is required prior to student teaching. Students spend approximately 20 hours per term in field experiences. Undergraduate Content Area Requirements The equivalent of a major in a content area is required for K12 and 5-12 licensure. Students who have majored in a field in which we offer licensure must have their previous coursework evaluated by the major department at Augsburg. Additional content area coursework tied to licensure standards is generally required, even with a completed academic major. The following majors are offered almost entirely on weekends and weekday evenings: communication arts/literature, history or economics or psychology or sociology (all for social studies), art. Students seeking 5-12 licensure in social studies must complete a broad-based core of courses in the social studies in addition to a social science major. The following majors are offered primarily or entirely through the weekday program: biology, chemistry; physics, health, physical education, music, and mathematics. Students seek- ing licensure in any of these areas will likely need to take additional content courses in the weekday schedule. Students can obtain a 9-12 license in physics, chemistry, or biology and have the option of adding the 5-8 general science to the 9-12 license. Students also can obtain the 5-8 general science license without the 9-12 license. Previous coursework is evaluated by the content area department and accepted if it meets Minnesota licensure standards and if a grade of C or better was achieved. Coursework older than seven years is judged on a case-by-case basis. Education Department policy requires that a minimum of two content area courses be taken at Augsburg. Specific course requirements for each content area are on file in the Education Department. Graduate coursework accepted into the licensure program is not automatically accepted into the MAE degree program.

This endorsement has been established to provide teachers with existing teaching licenses an opportunity to expand their knowledge and practices in the area of reading instruction. Candidates for this license will complete 4.5 credits of coursework that have been designed to meet the requirements established for this license by the Minnesota Board of Teaching. Students may use these courses to fulfill requirements for the Master of Arts in Education degree. These courses include: EED 520 K-6 Methods: Reading (1.0)* ESE 500 Reading/Writing in the Content Areas (1.0)* *The courses EED 320/520 and ESE 300/500 are offered to both undergraduate and graduate students: EED 320/520 is part of the elementary and special education initial licensure programs; ESE 300/500 is part of the secondary initial licensure program. The rigor of the courses is increased at the graduate level. Reading license candidates who have already received their initial teaching license and who are graduates of Augsburg College within the past seven years will not be required to retake the entire version of EED 320/520 or ESE 300/500. However, they will be expected to complete the requirements for the graduate portion of the course they have already taken within the context of a half-credit independent study. If the graduate course was taken as a part of initial licensure (EED 520 or ESE 500) students do not need to repeat the course; however, if ESE 500 was taken without a field experience, 20 hours in a high school or middle school reading setting must be completed. EDC 505 K-12 Literature in the Classroom (.5) EDC 508 K-12 Reading Assessment and Evaluation (1.0)* EDC 510 Clinical and Reading Program Leadership (1.0)* Reading license candidates who already have received their initial K-8 teaching licensure and who are graduates of Augsburg College, but not within the past seven years, will be required to take EED 520 or ESE 500 at the graduate level. *Field experience required Reading Endorsement Course Descriptions EED 320/520 K-6 Methods: Reading* The study and use of a variety of teaching techniques and resources in reading, including the diagnosis and correction of reading difficulties. Should be taken at the graduate level for the reading endorsement. (Prereq.: PPST and admission to the department) Reading license candidates who have already received their initial teaching licensure and who are not graduates of Augsburg College will be expected to take EED 520 and ESE 500. STUDENT TEACHING Education students are required to complete student teaching in their content area. In the MAE program, student teaching is generally completed before finishing the degree. Students can apply for licensure at this point. Student teaching for elementary and secondary initial licenses lasts 12-14 weeks, depending on licensure scope. During that time, students work full time as student teachers and are supervised by an Augsburg faculty member. Students register for two to three credits of student teaching and meet at Augsburg College for a student teaching seminar several times during the term. Most student teaching placements are in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area and Rochester. However, students do have the opportunity to student teach abroad, where students do half of the student teaching experience in the metro area and the remaining portion in another country. Opportunities to teach abroad are available around the world, and it is a wonderful opportunity to build a global perspective in education. Additional information is available through the Education Department. Student teaching for special education is completed as part of the internship year if students are working in a licensure appropriate setting. If not, student teaching is carried out after completing the special education coursework. A supervised practicum for the reading endorsement is completed as part of EDC 510 Clinical and Reading Program Leadership. No further student teaching is required for this endorsement. GRADUATE DEGREE COMPLETION Students take graduate coursework as part of the licensure program. This coursework forms the Master of Arts in Education core, with between four to six Augsburg graduatelevel licensure courses fulfilling master's requirements. To earn a master's degree beyond the core of education classes, students will need to successfully complete a minimum of three additional graduate-level courses: • a research methods course, typically ML 514 • an elective course chosen from leadership-focused courses in the Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL) program The goal for the graduate degree completion component is to foster the development of teachers as leaders within the institution and community as in line with our program theme and department mission statement. Graduate Degree Completion Course Descriptions Research Methods Course All students seeking the Master of Arts in Education degree must complete a graduate-level research requirement. ML 514 Research Methods Evaluation and documentation of programs, projects, and ideas as they relate to leadership theories and practice. Qualitative and quantitative tools will be discussed. MAE Final Project Options Students have two options for fulfilling their Master of Arts in Education final project: a leadership application project (LAP) or action research. This project serves as the capstone of the master's program. EDC 585 Leadership Application Project The leadership application project (LAP) is a research-based study that links issues of leadership and education with the degree candidate's personal interests. The character of the project will vary with the nature of the investigation and the materials involved, but will always be application oriented. The central component of the LAP is the demonstration of leadership ability through a concrete project appropriate to the candidate's workplace or place of service. EDC 586 Action Research in Education (.5 course) This course will introduce students to action research, a form of research that simultaneously contributes to the practical concerns of people while furthering the goals of social science. It requires active self-reflective inquiry and collaboration. Action research is used in real situations, and is aimed at solving real problems. The goal of action research is to gain better knowledge of one's practice while improving the situation in which the practice is conducted. This is the first of a two-trimester course. • a research- or leadership-based final project Students bringing fewer than six graduate-level licensure courses into the degree program must complete additional leadership or education graduate courses to reach the total of nine required courses. A minimum of four graduate-level licensure courses are required for the MAE degree. The research methods course will help prepare students to evaluate and document research for use in their final project or paper. This course examines both qualitative and quantitative research methods. The leadership elective courses allow students to examine issues of leadership at a personal or ins ti tu tional level. Students have two options for fulfilling their Master of Arts in Education final project, which serves as the capstone of the master's program: a leadership application project (LAP) or action research course sequence and project. EDC 587 Action Research (.5 course) The second term of this course involves intensive data analysis, writing, and sharing of the degree candidate's research. It requires active self-reflective inquiry and collaboration. The trimester will culminate with a symposium in which student work will be presented in a public forum. MAL Elective Courses At least one elective must be taken from the Master of Arts in Leadership courses. The following are recommended, but others may also be used. ML 510 Visions of Leadership: A Historical and Literary Journey ML 511 Creativity and the Problem-Solving Process ML 520 Self-Identity, Values, and Personal Growth ML 530 Ethics in Communication ML 531 The Dynamics of Change ML 545 Decision Making and Leadership Credit Evaluation: An official transfer credit evaluation of your previous academic work will be completed as part of the admissions process. ML 550 Communication, Decision Making, and Technology ML 560 Developing a Multicultural Perspective Advising and Registration: You are able to participate in ML 565 Women and Leadership academic advising and the registration process after you have been accepted. ML 599 Special Topics (as appropriate) ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS Students admitted into the MAE program must have completed: • a bachelor's degree from a regionally-accredited four-year institution, and can obtain licensure at the graduate level • cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher (required for full admission for the graduate licensure option and degree program). Students with a cumulative grade point average of 2.5-3.0 may be admitted conditionally into the graduate licensure program. They can apply to the MAE full licensure and degree program after achieving 3.0 or better in two (2.0) Augsburg courses. Minimum Grade Policy and Academic Probation Students who fail to maintain a cumulative 3.0 GPA in a given term in graduate course work are notified that they are on academic probation and have one term to raise their GPA to the required level. Failure to do so could mean dismissal from the program. Students who receive below a 2.0 in any course required for licensure-undergraduate or graduate-are notified that they are on academic probation and must repeat that course as soon as possible and raise it to the appropriate level. Failure to do so could mean dismissal from the program. Students who receive a 2.0 in a graduate course may use that course for licensure purposes, but it will not be counted towards degree completion.

The MAL program offers students an excellent opportunity to explore leadership within the context of the liberal arts. The program design broadens the skills and mindset you need to improve your leadership capabilities in your current and future positions, as well as in your life. The MAL program is taught by senior Augsburg faculty from a variety of disciplines. The faculty are committed to an interdisciplinary approach to leadership studies. Our students represent a wide array of occupations including business, health care, and the nonprofit sector. This diverse learning community provides a rich environment for you to explore leadership beyond your own realm of expertise. Our program will help you develop skills you need to be an effective leader in an ever-changing world. I am frequently told by students that the program has changed their lives, has sharpened their understanding of themselves and others, and has opened doors that would otherwise have remained closed. To learn more about the program, go to www.augsburg.edu/mal. I would be happy to help you determine how Augsburg's Master of Arts in Leadership program may benefit you. Contact me via e-mail at noonan@augsburg.edu or by telephone at 612-330-1198. I look forward to seeing you on campus soon! Norma C. Noonan, PhD Director, Master of Arts in Leadership Mission Statement The primary purpose of the Master of Arts in Leadership program is to develop leaders for organizations, the community, and society Most organizations seek leaders who possess the following qualities: an ethically and morally responsible vision, an understanding of how change occurs and how it can be managed, sensitivity to the complex problems of organizations, and an ability to find solutions consistent with their mission, cultural competence and sensitivity to the needs of a diverse population, and the ability to inspire and motivate people to work toward a common goal. Introduction The Master of Arts in Leadership is based on a liberal arts approach to leadership studies. This cross-disciplinary program directs its academic content and pedagogical approaches to situations, issues, and problems relevant to organizational leaders. Augsburg's program recognizes that today's leaders need a broad spectrum of abilities to provide them with a more comprehensive understanding of their world. Designed for working adults, the program offers courses primarily on alternate Saturdays. The Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL) is the core program of Augsburg's Center for Leadership Studies (CLS). The MAL program, launched in 1987, responds to the leadership development needs of both for-profit and not-for-profit organizations. While different in structure and purpose, most organizations seek leaders with the following qualities: a vision that is ethically and morally responsible, extending beyond immediate concerns; an understanding of how change occurs and affects the immediate environment; a sensitivity to the complex problems organizations face and an ability to achieve solutions consistent with an organization's mission; the ability to motivate and inspire individuals and groups to work toward a common goal; and the ability to effectively represent the organization both internally and externally. The MAL program provides a means by which individuals may discover and refine these and other abilities fundamental to effective leadership. Leadership studies is a growing field in American higher education, and the MAL program has significantly developed and modified its curriculum in response to new trends in the field. The program has a deep theoretical base in leadership studies yet attempts also to offer its students practical approaches to leadership that can be applied in the workplace and society. incorporate some online work into their agenda. MAL students may take up to seven courses during the calendar year. It is possible to complete the degree within two years if a student takes two courses each trimester. Community of Learners Essential to the goals of the MAL program is participation in a community of learners gathered on the Augsburg campus. This community is enriched by the students, who have a variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate community interaction, students are encouraged to make use of the Augsburg library, computer labs, and Christensen Center. The Center for Leadership Studies also offers special colloquia and seminars each year to supplement and complement the coursework of the master's program. A sample class schedule in the MAL program Period I Period II Saturday Saturday 8 a.m. to noon 1 to 5 p.m. Note: Each class taken commits a student to either Period I or Period II, an average of two meetings a month. An occasional course is taught on an immersion model which features fewer but longer sessions. A few courses are held on Sunday afternoons, from 1 to 5 p.m. Augsburg College has a summer session. The MAL program usually offers at least two classes during the summer. The courses are five weeks in duration, meeting normally two nights a week, except for special immersion courses. LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT MODEL Leadership Development Model-Augsburg College The MAL program promotes leadership as a process that inspires cooperation among people who must compete for limited resources, promotes productivity within and beyond the organization, and works toward progress for the individual and the organization. To accomplish this, individuals aspiring to positions of leadership must possess three key attributes: a sense of vision, the ability to persuade, and the ability to direct action. Underlying these attributes are abilities and awareness, outlined in the leadership development model, that serve as specific outcomes for the MAL program. Augsburg's model of leadership development is designed to assess, promote, enhance, and refine these capabilities within the individual. CURRICULUM DESIGN Accommodating the Full-Time Work Schedule Designed to meet the needs and preferences of working adults, the MAL program is based on the assumption that the students who enroll are career-oriented, self-disciplined, and well-motivated individuals seeking a balance of classroom experience, group interaction, and individual study Most courses are organized as seminars with the opportunity for discussion and dialogue. During the academic year, classes meet on alternate Saturdays for four hours. A few courses are taught by the immersion model, which has fewer sessions but longer meeting times. Most courses Each MAL course normally includes two or more liberal arts disciplines, encourages pursuit of the designated outcomes, and uses a variety of learning techniques appropriate to adult learners. Instructional techniques include case studies, discussion, written and oral presentations, and group activity. These techniques develop targeted leadership abilities and understanding. Students are encouraged to see abilities and understandings as cross-disciplinary and to view content areas as integrated. The program reflects the view that the world in which we operate is complex and that dealing with it successfully requires well-developed integrative abilities. LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT MODEL Leadership Orientation Toward Action Sense of Vision Ethical • Social awareness • Environmental awareness • Tolerance of religious and philosophical differences • Appreciation of situational complexity Creative • Innovativeness Facility for Persuasion Communicative • • • • • • Risk Assumptive • Curiosity • Achievement motivation • Self-esteem Final project options There are three ways to complete the MAL degree. In the Thesis/Leadership Application Project (Thesis/LAP) Option (Plan A), students complete a thesis or a major leadership application project and 11 credits. In the Non-Thesis Option (Plan B), students must complete 11 credits, two papers, but no thesis. For the third option, the Comprehensive Exam Seminar (Plan C), students complete 11 credits, including the comprehensive exam seminar. Plan A: Thesis/LAP Option Students who select the Thesis/LAP Option are required to develop and carry out an in-depth study of some aspect of leadership or of a leadership-related topic. This researchbased study gives the student the opportunity to "tie together" what has been learned from the study of leadership and course-related activities. The principal distinction between the thesis and the leadership application project lies in their underlying orientation. A thesis has a more theoretical orientation, while a leadership application project is based on a practical issue. Both require similar rigor and preparation. For either alternative, the student must register for ML 592 and 593. For more information regarding the Thesis/LAP Option, refer to the Thesis/LAP and Non-Thesis Project Guidelines booklet.

STAFF Patty Park, Program Coordinator Master of Arts in Nursing Master of Arts in Nursing We are excited about the educational opportunities, engaging practicum experiences and wealth of transcultural nursing knowledge offered in the Master of Arts in Nursing program at Augsburg College. We are also proud of our students who come from a wide range of diverse cultural, educational, and experiential backgrounds. Some master's degree candidates enter directly from college, others are making mid-life career changes, and some are returning to college after raising a family. The career options in nursing are more variable and more rewarding than ever before. As our population ages and becomes increasingly diverse, nurses are challenged to respond with creativity and competence. The master's program prepares nurses for leadership across care systems, population groups, cultures, and settings, with particular emphasis on addressing global and local health inequities. Graduates of our master's program are practicing in acute care, community and public health, education, nursing administration, and emerging care settings that are responsive to the needs of culturally diverse and underserved populations. Many of our graduates are creating innovative practice models that demonstrate interdisciplinary leadership and economically feasible solutions to health inequities within communities. Students can choose between two tracks of study in the master's curriculum: Transcultural Nursing in Community or Transformational Nursing Leadership and Management. Classes are offered at the Augsburg campus in Minneapolis and at Bethel Lutheran Church in downtown Rochester, Minnesota. Video conferencing is used for most classes and allows for "real time" connections between students in the two sites. Program faculty and staff are available at both sites and eager to assist students in expanding their nursing practice and advancing their career options while exploring together how we transform our unique gifts and interests into personal and professional service in the world. Sincerely, Cheryl Leuning, PhD Chair, Department of Nursing Director, Master of Arts in Nursing Master of Arts in Nursing Mission Within the framework of a Christian liberal arts education, the Master of Arts in Nursing program is designed to prepare nurses for transformational leadership and transcultural practice across care settings, with particular emphasis on addressing health inequities. TRANSCULTURAL NURSING IN COMMUNITY The Transcultural Nursing in Community track in the Master of Arts in Nursing program was designed to prepare nurses for advanced population-focused practice in culturally diverse communities. The curriculum is grounded in nursing science, public health principles, theory-guided practice, and transcultural care. The program of study focuses on reaching populations that are underserved by traditional care systems and who exist outside of the social mainstream. As such, the program provides rich alternative teaching and learning opportunities for graduate students locally and internationally. Upon graduation from the program, nurses completing this track are eligible to apply for certification in Advanced Transcultural Nursing through the International Transcultural Nursing Society. Also, graduates completing this track will be eligible to apply to the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) for certification in Advanced Community Health Nursing. A total of 10 courses plus a thesis or graduate project are required. Three courses in the Advanced Nursing Core, which all Master of Arts in Nursing students must take, five courses from the Transcultural Nursing in Community Track, and two electives make up the coursework for the program. Advanced Nursing Core (three courses) NUR 505 Theoretical Foundations for Advanced Nursing Practice NUR 520 Research Methods in Nursing NUR 523 Theory, Research, and Practice Seminar Transcultural Nursing in Community track (five courses) NUR 500 Transcultural Health Care NUR 503 Transcultural Health, Families, and the Life Cycle, and NUR 515 Managing Nursing Effectiveness within Care Systems OR The Politics of Health Care NUR 541 Plus, two of the following courses: * NUR 510 Advanced Community Health Nursing I NUR 511 Advanced Community Health Nursing II NUR 530 The Power of Ritual and Ceremony for Transformation NUR 532 Transcultural Healing Practices ELECTIVES-two graduate elective courses, which may include the following: ECO 520 Economics of Health Care in a Global Community Visions of Leadership ML510 ML511 ML530 ML531 ML560 NUR 530 NUR532 NUR562 Creativity and the Problem-Solving Process Ethics in Communication The Dynamics of Change Developing a Multicultural Perspective The Power of Ritual and Ceremony for Transformation Transcultural Healing Practices Walking the Truth: Culture, Gender, and HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa Note: Academic advisers can inform students about other possible electives. *Students seeking certification in Advanced Community Health Nursing from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) must complete 500 hours of clinical practicum work and select NUR 510 and NUR 511; students seeking certification from the International Transcultural Nursing Society may select NUR 530 and NUR 532. Clinical practicum hours are integrated into several courses in the curriculum. Thesis or Graduate Project-students are required to complete either a thesis or a graduate project, which is equivalent to one course. NUR 525 Graduate Field Project NUR 535 Integrative Master's Thesis TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT The Transformational Leadership and Management track unites the liberal arts with nursing science and practice. This track is designed to develop nurse leaders who are analytical, articulate, and constructively critical and who will be able to cope with high-level healthcare delivery issues. Curricular emphasis is on interdisciplinary collaboration across care settings. Participation in nursing leadership practica and classroom dialogue provides opportunities for students to apply knowledge and gain experience partnering with diverse care providers, populations, and communities to address health inequities in creative and relevant ways. Specialty electives build on students' competencies and goals. Courses are offered by the Department of Nursing faculty as well as faculty teaching in the Master of Arts in Leadership and Master of Business Administration programs. Students take a total of 10 courses, plus a thesis or graduate project. Three courses in the Advanced Nursing Core, which all Master of Arts in Nursing students must take, five courses in the Transformational Leadership and Management Track, and two elective courses make up the course work for the program.

Thesis or Graduate Project Students have two options for fulfilling their Master of Arts in Nursing final project, which serves as the capstone of the master's program: a graduate field project, or an integrative master's thesis. The graduate field project, NUR 525, is based on a selfselected issue relevant to transcultural nursing in community or transformational nursing leadership. The student will focus primarily on the application and integration of knowledge. Working with an adviser, the student will design and/or implement and evaluate a model of advanced practice nursing applied to health inequities in a selected community, or a nursing leadership issue. The integrative thesis option, NUR 535, expands upon and/or extends theoretical foundations or concepts identified in transcultural nursing, community health nursing, and/or nursing leadership literature. The thesis project demonstrates the student's ability to do independent research involving the exposition of primary and secondary literature appropriate to the topic, the collection and analysis of empirical data, and the articulation of implications for advanced practice nursing. Students register for their final project, with their adviser's permission, near the end of the program. Students must complete all coursework and defend the project within two years after registration. After two years, students must pay a continuation fee of $200 per term in order to retain student status in the graduate program, including library privileges, AugNet access, and parking privileges. Please refer to the "Graduate Field Project or Integrative Thesis Procedures and Policies" booklet available in the Nursing Department for additional information. Practica Practice experience is emphasized in both tracks in the Master of Arts in Nursing program. Students who complete the Transcultural Nursing in Community track will have enough practice hours to be eligible to apply to take the certification exam in Advanced Community Health Nursing through the American Nurses Credentialing Center. Nursing practice with diverse populations will also provide students with the experiences needed to apply to take the certification exam in Transcultural Nursing. In the practica all students practice primarily in nontraditional settings with persons underserved or excluded from mainstream health care. Emphasis is on cultural diversity and health inequities across health care settings. Students in the Transformational Leadership and Management track have practice experience in several courses with preceptors in leadership positions in a variety of care settings. A unique opportunity offered for practica at Augsburg is provided by the Augsburg Central Nursing Center. The Nursing Center provides services for persons struggling with poverty and homelessness in the city of Minneapolis. People from diverse backgrounds, who have health experiences grounded in wide-ranging cultural contexts, provide many opportunities for students to explore advanced nursing roles and new models and forms of practice. Study Abroad and Off-campus Opportunities The Nursing Department works closely with cultural guides, nurse mentors, and Augsburg's Center for Global Education in developing study abroad opportunities. The following study abroad and away opportunities are four examples of existing practicum experiences. Students may travel to Namibia in southwest Africa to spend two weeks exploring health and healthcare challenges within a rapidly developing country. Practical experience with nurses in a variety of care settings, meaningful dialogue with key resource persons, and critical reflection foster personal and professional growth in this practicum. Week-long immersion courses and practica are taught on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in western South Dakota. These courses and experiences offer students the opportunity to live on the reservation and participate with public health nurses providing health services. They also interact with tribal leaders and experience cultural events relevant to the Lakota people of Pine Ridge. Ten-day courses and practica are available in Mexico and Guatemala as well. Students explore the relationships of indigenous and Western health care, the connection between social justice and health, and interact with local indigenous healers. Students may apply all these study abroad options to requirements in the Master of Arts in Nursing program. COURSE DESCRIPTIONS NUR 500 Transcultural Health Care This course explores meanings and expressions of health, illness, caring, and healing transculturally. Focus is on understanding and developing professional competence in caring for individuals, families, groups, and communities with diverse cultural backgrounds. Culture is examined as a pervasive, determining "blueprint" for thought and action throughout the human health experience. Patterns of human interaction that foster health and quality of life are analyzed, and health destroying patterns of interaction, e.g., stereotyping, discrimination, and marginalization, are examined and submitted to moral and ethical reflection. (36 hours of practice experience) NUR 501 Transcultural Care Systems In this course, organizations are viewed as cultural systems that are complex and adaptive, where continuous change and unpredictability rule the development and course of evolution. The importance of relationships, the role of selforganization, the processes of emergence and co-evolution are explored via readings and discussions. Attendance at a local, national, and/or international nursing leadership conference is mandatory. Dialogue and networking with a variety of nursing leaders to understand the context of transcultural healthcare organizations are expected. NUR 503 Transcultural Health, Families, and the Life Cycle The major curriculum concepts of individuals, health, nursing, and society are developed further in this course as the function of individuals living in families and in communities is explored. Content about systems, communication, small group, and nursing theories is applied to family constellation. The influence of the multigenerational family is examined in terms of culture, belief system, roles, healthcare patterns, values, and goals. Specific concepts related to values and culture are expanded and applied to the more complex social structures of traditional and nontraditional families as they interact in and with society. (36 hours of practice experience) NUR 505 Theoretical Foundations for Advanced Nursing Practice This course focuses on nursing science and nursing theory as foundational to advanced transcultural nursing practice. Philosophical underpinnings of different theoretical and research traditions in nursing are compared and related to the provision of culturally competent care in diverse communities. Nursing science is emphasized as a process of theory advancement and as an accumulating body of nursing knowledge. (36 hours of practice experience) NUR 510 Advanced Community Health Nursing I This course focuses on persons, families and groups living in relationship. Emphasis is on applying the core functions of community/public health - assessment, policy development and assurance. Principles of epidemiology, population demographics, and culture care are integrated into community-focused healthcare delivery models. Power structures within dominant social systems are analyzed and critiqued with regard to resource access and distribution among underserved populations. (36 hours of practice experience) NUR 511 Advanced Community Health Nursing II Emphasis is on the application of public/community health theory and research in providing health care to populations and communities. Essential public health services are assessed for adequacy in meeting community health needs and addressing transcultural health goals. The impact of diversity, privilege, resource limits, and globalization add depth and reality to local and global community health concerns, patterns of health, suffering, and healthcare provisioning. Prerequisite: NUR 510. (72 hours of practice experience) NUR 515 Managing Nursing Effectiveness within Care Systems In planning and implementing nursing activities, healthcare organizations are considered subcultures of society, which entail particular issues of access and utilization for marginalized people. Strategies for negotiating structures of privilege and professional control will be explored. Working with marginalized populations, students will identify and support the agency or persons who are seeking help from these systems. Nursing action will focus on mediating subcultures of clients with the subculture of healthcare systems. Major emphasis will be placed on mutuality with clients in planning actions and evaluating outcomes. (72 hours of practice experience) NUR 520 Research Methods in Nursing Through a combination of literature review, field experience, and class discussion, research methods relevant to the exploration of culture and health will be examined. Class topics will include formulating study questions to explore collective foundations of meaning and explanation in health and illness, practice in data collection procedures of field research, and issues of interpretation and analysis in qualitative research. Prerequisite: a college-level statistics course. (36 hours of practice experience) NUR 521 Transformational Nursing Leadership This course emphasizes transformational nursing leadership and management in partnership with diverse groups. Transcultural competence is lifted up as significant to the evolving leadership and planning skills needed in emerging care systems. Opportunities for students to engage in designing relevant models of care delivery are woven into clinical practica. (72 hours of practice experience) NUR 523 Theory, Research, and Practice Seminar The conceptualization, investigation, and application of nursing knowledge will be critiqued with particular focus on its contribution to developing practice in transcultural community health care. Through reflection and dialogue, which includes professional experience of practice contexts, as well as theoretical and research literature, students will formulate a transcultural nursing model of care. (36 hours of practice experience) NUR 525 Graduate Field Project This course focuses on the application and integration of knowledge to a student-selected issue or topic of concern relevant to transcultural nursing, community health nursing, and/or transformational nursing leadership. Working with a nursing faculty adviser, students design and/or implement and evaluate a theory-based model of advanced practice nursing. Relevant coursework is integrated into the project and the final written report. Plans for disseminating the report for public and professional use are encouraged. Students will defend the project to their graduate committee (major faculty adviser and two readers) and invited guests at the time of completion. NUR 530 The Power of Ritual and Ceremony for Transformation In this course, the student will explore ritual and ceremony from a transcultural perspective. Attention will be focused on rituals and ceremonies in specific cultures and religions, and in the modern American medical system that sustains its own rituals. In some cultures, formal or informal religious practices may be integral to the ritual of ceremony and healing. In modern American culture, the perceived division between the mind, body, and spirit has led to ritual and ceremony being considered adjunctive to the scientific approach to healing. Students will have an opportunity to interact with persons who integrate ritual and ceremony into their lives and healthcare practices. Students will also discuss the meaning of ritual and ceremony to their own lives and professional practice. NUR 532 Transcultural Healing Practices This course will introduce students to complementary healing practices including the historical and cultural contexts in which they developed. Students will discuss the philosophical underpinnings of therapeutic systems and paradigms of healing in selected complementary therapies: music therapy, traditional Chinese medicine, mind-body healing, spiritual and faith practices, energy healing practices , movement therapies, homeopathy, manual therapies, and nutrition and nutritional supplements. NUR 535 Integrative Master's Thesis The integrative thesis expands upon or extends the theoretical foundations in the literature of Transcultural Nursing in Community or Transformational Leadership and Management. It demonstrates the student's ability to do independent research that integrates past and current literature appropriate to the topic, the collection and analysis of empirical data, and the articulation of implications for advanced nursing practice or leadership in nursing organizations. Students will defend the project to their selected graduate committee (comprised of the student's faculty adviser and two readers) and invited guests. Plans for disseminating the report for public and professional use are encouraged. NUR 541 The Politics of Health Care This course will explore how health and illness are related to inequities in society and dynamics of power in systems of health care. The following issues will be examined in the course: How widening gaps in the distribution of wealth diminish the health of all members of society; how social inequities become medicalized as health disparities, how an emphasis on profit in health care affects the distribution of healing resources in the population, and what strategies the poor and powerless employ to gain access to healthcare resources. This course will include an optional study abroad experience in Guatemala. (72 hours of practice experience) NUR 562 Walking the Truth: Culture, Gender, and HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa This broad-based interdisciplinary course explores the influence of culture and gender on the HIV/AIDS pandemic in sub-Saharan Africa. The natural history, biology, and epidemiology of AIDS in Africa, as well as socio-cultural, ethical, theological, and political responses to the disease are examined. Women's collective and individual efforts to preserve the health of their families and communities are highlighted as hopeful and positive responses to the HIV/AIDS crisis in sub-Saharan Africa. NUR 599 Topics Study of selected topics that are not treated extensively through current course offerings. Specific topics will be published prior to registration.

Augsburg College's graduate program in physician assistant studies receives approximately 250 applications for each entering class of 28 students. The Augsburg Physician Assistant Studies program has a two-step application process-applying through CASPA and to Augsburg's PA Studies Program. Qualified applicants will have: • Bachelor's degree (in any major) from a regionally-accredited four-year institution • Minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 • Completed the prerequisite courses listed below PA Studies Application Process The Augsburg PA Program participates in the Centralized Application Service for Physician Assistants (CASPA) which is sponsored by the Physician Assistant Education Association (PAEA). All applications to the PA Program for the entering class must be processed through CASPA, following all guidelines and regulations set forth by CASPA. Application forms with detailed instructions can be obtained online at www.caspaonline.org. Prerequisite Courses To be an eligible applicant for the physician assistant studies program, you must have completed the prerequisite courses listed below. These courses must have been completed within 10 years of the year you are applying for admission. If you have already completed your undergraduate degree, prerequisites must be completed by the end of fall semester (no later than December 30) of the year you are applying. If you are completing your first undergraduate degree, you may complete prerequisite course work in the spring semester of the year you are applying; however, that coursework must be completed prior to the start date of the program. All course prerequisites must have been passed with a grade of C (2.0) or higher. Meeting minimum prerequisites does not guarantee admission into the program. You will be considered an eligible applicant if you have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 (as calculated by CASPA), if you have completed or will complete your undergraduate degree prior to the start date of the program, and if you have completed or will complete your prerequisite courses within the timeline specified for your situation. Augsburg's PA Program Supplemental Application can be downloaded from www.augsburg.edu/pa. It is important for the applicant to determine whether he or she is in fact eligible to apply to the PA Studies Program, as the $25 supplemental application fee is non-refundable. You will be required to print and sign the supplemental application and mail it to the program by the application deadline. Since all incoming students begin the course of study in late May, the application is thus made approximately a year before matriculation. • one full course of general psychology • one full course of developmental psychology (birth to death lifespan) • one full course of physiology* (human/vertebrate/organ) • one full course of microbiology* • one full course of biochemistry* • one full course of general statistics • one course of medical terminology *Labs are recommended but not required. Refer to our "Guide to Prerequisites" on our website to help you with your prerequisite course selections. The following are strongly recommended but not required: • Minimum science GPA of 3.0 • Additional science courses such as anatomy, genetics, immunology, other biology courses, and organic chemistry • Clinical healthcare experience. Direct patient contact is the best type of experience to obtain in order to strengthen an application. Healthcare experience may be full time or part time, paid or volunteer. Selection Process All complete files ( CASPA and Supplemental Applications that meet requirements) will be reviewed by the admissions committee. The admissions committee procedures utilize a blind review, so applicant demographic data is unknown (e.g., race, age, gender). Each file is reviewed by members of the committee. The selection committee looks for a balanced application by reviewing many criteria including cumulative GPA, science GPA, overall academic record, service to underserved (meaning disadvantaged, minority; or under-represented populations), direct patient contact experience, knowledge of the profession, fit with the program goals and mission, and recommendation letters. Once the committee has completed the file review, a group of candidates is selected for a telephone interview. The telephone interviews are generally conducted in mid- to lateJanuary. In addition, those selected for a telephone interview are invited to a Candidate Information Session in the program to meet faculty, staff, current students, and to view the facilities. After telephone interviews are conducted, the class of 28 students, as well as a list of alternates will be selected. All applicants are notified of their status by midFebruary. PA PROGRAM POLICIES Technical Standards • The Augsburg College Department of Physician Assistant Studies is pledged to the admission and matriculation of all qualified students and prohibits unlawful discrimination against anyone on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age, marital status, sexual orientation, status without regard to public assistance or disability. • Regarding disabled individuals, the PA department is committed to provide reasonable accommodations and will not discriminate against individuals who are qualified, but will expect all applicants and students to meet certain minimal technical standards, with or without reasonable accommodations. Physician assistants must have the knowledge and skills to function in a broad variety of clinical situations and to render a wide spectrum of patient care. They must be able to integrate all information received by whatever sense(s) employed, consistently, quickly, and accurately, and they must have the intellectual ability to learn, integrate, analyze, and synthesize data. Candidates for physician assistant certification offered by this department must have, with or without reasonable accommodation, multiple abilities and skills including visual, oral-auditory, motor, cognitive, and behavioral/ social. Candidates for admission and progression must be able to perform these abilities and skills in a reasonably independent manner. • Visual: Candidates must be able to observe and participate in experiments in the basic sciences. In order to make proper clinical decisions, candidates must be able to observe a patient accurately. Candidates must be able to acquire information from written documents, films, slides, or videos. Candidates must also be able to interpret X-ray and other graphic images, and digital or analog representations of physiologic phenomena, such as EKGs with or without the use of assistive devices . Thus, functional use of vision is necessary. • Oral-Auditory: Candidates must be able to communicate effectively and sensitively with patients. Candidates must also be able to communicate effectively and efficiently with other members of the healthcare team. In emergency situations, candidates must be able to understand and convey information essential for the safe and effective care of patients in a clear, unambiguous, and rapid fashion. In addition, candidates must have the ability to relate information to and receive information from patients in a caring and confidential manner. • Motor: Candidates must possess the motor skills necessary to perform palpation, percussion, auscultation, and other diagnostic maneuvers. Candidates must be able to execute motor movements reasonably required to provide general and emergency medical care such as airway management, placement of intravenous catheters, cardiopul- • • monary resuscitation, and application of pressure to control bleeding. These skills require coordination of both gross and fine muscular movements, equilibrium, and integrated use of the senses of touch and vision. Cognitive: In order to effectively solve clinical problems, candidates must be able to measure, evaluate, reason, analyze, integrate, and synthesize in a timely fashion. In addition, they must be able to comprehend three dimensional relationships and to understand the special relationships of structures. Social: Candidates must possess the emotional health required for the full utilization of their intellectual abilities, for the exercise of good judgment, for the prompt completion of all responsibilities attendant to the diagnosis and care of patients, and for the development of effective relationships with patients. Candidates must be able to tolerate physically taxing workloads and function effectively under stress. They must be able to adapt to changing environments, display flexibility, and learn to function in the face of uncertainties inherent in the clinical problems of patients. Tests and Evaluations: In order to evaluate the competence and quality of candidates, the Augsburg Physician Assistant Program employs periodic examinations as an essential component of the physician assistant curriculum. Successful completion of these examinations is required of all candidates as a condition for continued progress through the curriculum. Reasonable accommodation will be made in the form or manner of administration of these evaluations where necessary and possible. Clinical Assessments: Demonstration of clinical competence is also of fundamental importance to the career and curriculum progression of the candidates. Therefore, the process of faculty evaluation of the clinical performance of candidates is an integral and essential part of the curriculum. Although reasonable accommodation will be made, participation in clinical experiences and the evaluation of that participation is required. Experiential Learning Policy The Augsburg Physician Assistant Program does not award academic credit to an individual for experiential learning. Applicants desiring admission to Augsburg's PA Program must satisfactorily complete all prerequisite courses. Experiential learning will be considered separately from prerequisite courses. Experiential learning prior to and during admittance to the Augsburg PA Program will not substitute for any part of the clinical year or preceptorship. Employment while in the Program Program faculty discourage outside employment while in the Physician Assistant Program. Faculty recognize that employment may be an issue that some students will face. Given this recognition, realize that program obligations will not be altered due to a student's work obligations. It is further expected that work obligations will not interfere with the physician assistant students' learning progress or responsibilities while in the program. Withdrawal and Readmission Policies Voluntary withdrawal from the Physician Assistant Program may be initiated by a student after submission of a letter to the program director requesting withdrawal. In the letter, the student should ou tline the circumstances and reasons for withdrawal. Students will be requested to conduct an exit interview with the program director prior to leaving the program. See page 5 for information on withdrawal. Readmission Students may request readmission after voluntary withdrawal by submitting a letter to the program director stating the reasons the student wishes readmission and the anticipated date for readmission. The submission of a letter and previous enrollment does not constitute automatic acceptance and/or reentry into the program. Reapplication to the PA Program after dismissal from the program will be considered only under extremely unusual circumstances. Students who submit letters will be reviewed by the program faculty. Any student requesting readmission will be considered a new applicant to the program and will be required to complete the program application process as a new applicant, and may be required to repeat coursework. Reapplication does not guarantee readmission to the Physician Assistant Program. After careful review of the student's previous academic record and the request for readmission, a decision will be made. Students may be required to repeat selected coursework or meet new requirements of the Physician Assistant Program that became effective after the student's withdrawal. A decision will also be rendered as to what program coursework will be considered for credit as completed. COSTS OF THE PA PROGRAM For tuition information go to www.augsburg.edu/pa.

Master of Social Work Master of Social Worl< You have chosen an exciting way to serve others. The social work profession offers you the rewarding prospect of joining with others to respond to problems and develop opportunities that benefit individuals, families, groups, and communities. The MSW degree prepares you for advanced professional practice in the field of social work. Augsburg's MSW program prepares you for agency-based practice with individuals, families, groups, and communities, and with a dedication to system change that reduces oppression and discrimination. Graduates of our program share how they appreciated the opportunity to learn new ideas as well as learn more about themselves. These graduates valued our small class size, our cohort structure, and the opportunity to have a mentoring relationship with our faculty and staff. As a small program, we have high expectations for our students but at the same time offer the flexibility to help them meet their individual goals. Attending Augsburg College will transform and develop your professional life in unexpected ways. If you are interested in learning more about our program, I invite you to come to campus for an information session. In that session, we will show you our tightly integrated curriculum, explain our cohort model, and introduce you to some of our faculty and staff. We also invite you to meet individually with our faculty and staff, who are available for appointments. We are delighted in your interest in our MSW program and invite you to join us in a lifelong adventure in learning. The personal and professional growth necessary to become an advanced professional social worker is challenging. We encourage you to take the challenge with us. Lois A. Bosch, PhD, LISW Director, Master of Social Work SWK 620 Research 2: Practice Evaluation Building on the basic research skills developed in Research I, this course offers a practice-oriented exploration of the range of research methods used in social work practice evaluation. There will be a particular focus on evaluative research, a critique of the role of research in assessing efficiency and effectiveness in social service delivery, and identification with the responsibility of social workers to "expand the knowledge base" of social work The course emphasizes research as a tool at all levels of social work and will be concerned with strengthening the linkages between research, theory, and practice evaluation. Students completing the thesis will have additional assignments fitting the thesis. SWK 625 Family Practice I The family practice methods sequence builds upon the theoretical framework of systems theory, the problem-solving model, and the strengths perspective from the foundation year. This first course in the sequence introduces students to the family level of need conceptual framework (Kilpatrick & Holland, 1999) as the foundation for choice of models for assessment and intervention with diverse families in a variety of practice settings. Family level of need is conceptualized as a hierarchy of needs ranging from basic survival to issues of intimacy or self-actualization of family members. Levels I (assessment and intervention models and strategies directed at basic survival needs) and II (structure and organization of families) will be taught. Presentation of the models will be integrated with current research, family policy; values, ethics, and global perspectives. SWK 626 Family Practice 2 This second course in the family practice methods sequence proceeds to Levels Ill and IV of the family level of need framework (see above). These levels focus on boundaries, conflict, and intimacy. Students will gain a working knowledge of strategies derived from these models. Presentation of the models will be integrated with current research, family policy, values, ethics, and global perspectives. Prerequisite: SWK 625 SWK 627 Family Practice 3 This third course in the family practice methods sequence offers students a selection of one course from two or more special topics, such as Advanced Family Therapy or Mental Health Practice. This will be an opportunity to tailor the skills learned in Family Practice 1 and 2 to an area of specialization within practice with families. Prerequisite: SWK 626 SWK 630 Family Social Policy This course explores the impact of social policies on diverse families, including policies that relate to housing, income maintenance, health, long-term care, education, and discrimination. This course has a dual purpose: to teach substantive knowledge of child and family policy and to teach policy practice skills. The diversity in families as well as ethnic , racial, cultural, and social class differences will be immersed in all content areas. National and international political, social, and economic systems will be a reference point. SWK 634 Creative Problem Solving in Supervision (.5 credit) This course examines knowledge and skill building in the administrative, educational, and supportive functions of social work supervision. The interactional model, creative problem solving, and strengths perspective are the frameworks for understanding and influencing the dynamics of supervision in a variety of settings. SWK 639 Topics in Family Practice: Ethics (.5 credit) Social workers and other human service professionals are often faced with ethical dilemmas and choices requiring ethical decision-making in all fields of practice. The purpose of this course is to help students acquire the knowledge base for ethical practice and to develop skills in identifying and resolving ethical dilemmas. Also, the course will provide students with tools required to make ethical decisions when confronted with conflicting choices occurring within the context of a profession with a specific values base and a code of ethics addressing ethical principles and standards related to clients, colleagues, employers, the profession of social work, and society. Program Development, Policy, and Administration Concentration Courses SWK 651 AND 652 Field Seminar 3 and 4: PDPA (.5 credit each) The goal of these two courses is to strengthen the connections between theory and practice with both taking on new dimension and meaning for students. All students in field placements must participate in the appropriate concurrent Field Seminar. As part of this integrative function, the seminar also serves as a means for making connections among course components and the expansion of classroom content-particularly as relating to dynamics of groups, communities, and organizations; human behavior; policy analysis; and research. SWK 65 7 AND 658 Diversity and Inequality I and 2: PDPA (.5 credit each) These courses explore diversity and social inequality related to race, ethnicity, social class, gender, sexual orientation, age, and disability with application to the social service setting. Students focus on the structural and institutional processes through which social inequality is created and perpetuated. Institutional remedies for inequality are studied, such as affirmative action and equal opportunity policy; culturally competent supervision, administration, program development, and advocacy. SWK 660 Research 2: Program Evaluation Building on the basic research skills developed in Research 1, this course offers a program-oriented exploration of the range of research methods used in social work There will be a particular focus on evaluative research, a critique of the role of research in assessing efficiency and effectiveness in social service delivery; and identification with the responsibility of social workers "to expand the knowledge base" of social work The course emphasizes research as a tool at all levels of social work and will be concerned with strengthening the linkages between research, theory, and program evaluation. SWK 667 Organizations/Social Administrative Practice 1 This course examines organizational theory and strucLure, processes of development, research, and evaluation, and social work values and ethics in the workplace. The need to work effectively within an organizational context means that social work practitioners must acquire a level of expertise in organization theory, dynamics, structure, and behavior, and also an understanding of how organizations provide practice opportunities and constraints. This course provides opportunities for students to build the necessary skills to become effective service providers or change agents in the context of their work in social service organizations. SWK 668 Organizations/Social Administrative Practice 2 This course builds on the theoretical knowledge base of SWK 667 and is intended to provide students with opportunities to apply those critical skills used in supervision and management. These skills are intended as a base for the beginning administrator. This course expects the student to develop specific skills in budgeting and personnel/human resource functions (e.g., recruitment, selection, hiring, training, and evaluation). Prerequisite: SWK 667 SWK 669 Organizations/Social Administrative Practice 3 This course explores strategies and methods for working effectively with other service agencies, legislative and policy-making bodies, regulatory agencies, and advocacy groups. Prerequisite: SWK 668 SWK 675 Planning and Policy Practice 1 This course examines theoretical and conceptual ideas concerning human services, their rationale in a market economy, and their relationship to public policy. Students will gain knowledge and build skills in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of services at various levels of system design, taking into account organizational, financial, and technological dimensions within an analytical framework of defined need and demand for service. SWK 676 Planning and Policy Practice 2 This course examines theories, concepts, and analytical frameworks for analyzing policy. lt addresses the role of economics, demographics, politics, values, and other relevant factors on policy design and implementation. The course emphasizes the analysis of selected existing or proposed policies in such areas as social insurance (e.g., Social Security), welfare reform, health care, long-term care, and tax policy including tax expenditures. Prerequisite: SWK 675 Both Concentrations SWK 699 General Elective Students in both concentrations complete at least one general elective credit for graduation. The following are examples of elective offerings that are rotated each year: • Parent and Professional Planning • Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Aging • Child Welfare: History, Policy, and Practice • Social Work with Involuntary Clients • Spirituality in Social Work and Human Services We also offer electives abroad: Exploring Human Services in International Settings (Examples include England, Mexico , Norway, Portugal, Slovenia, and Taiwan.) SWK 698 Independent Study Students may propose to complete an independent study project. Such directed study projects provide the opportunity for a student to explore a particular area of social work that is of interest to him or her. A faculty sponsor must be secured and a proposal submitted to the Social Work Department. On rare occasions, an independent study may be used to satisfy the general elective requirement. Prior approval is required. Courses that are part of the required curriculum may not be taken as independent study. FIELD WORK AND FIELD PLACEMENT Social work education goes beyond the classroom. Through the field experience, we expect that sLUdents will demonstrate skills to bridge theory and practice. Collaborative efforts between the student, the field agency, and the MSW program are essential to successful learning. The foundation of the practice includes: • ethical, competent professional practice • problem solving within a systems framework and strengths perspective • use of advanced practice theories in Family Practice or Program Development, Policy, and Administration settings • evaluation of the effecLiveness of program or practice activities • an understanding of, and respecL for, diverse peoples and cultures • responsibility and service to the local and global community in the interest of social justice • a commitment to oppose oppression of all forms Field Education Format Under the instruction and supervision of professionallytrained, MSW-level, and program-approved field instructors, students will spend a minimum of 920 hours in two field practica. Each practicum is spread over at least two trimesters (fall and winter) and is concurrent with enrollment in field work integrative seminars as well as other MSW coursework. The fieldwork education of the MSW program is divided into two components: Foundation Practicum The foundation practicum, or generalist practicum, puts emphasis on developing competence as a professional generalist social worker. It requires a minimum of 420 hours and is completed by students admitted at the foundation level. Students spend an average of 15 hours per week during the fall and winter terms in this practicum. Concentration Practicum The concentration practicum places emphasis on advanced practice skills and leadership qualities related to the chosen concentration. It requires a minimum of 500 hours and is completed by all students, including those admitted with advanced standing. Students spend an average of 18 hours per week during the fall and winter terms in this practicum. Process for Field Practicum Selection Field practica begin in the fall. Selection begins the previous spring in collaboration with two other Twin Cities MSW programs. Students attend the student field orientation before beginning their search. The opportunity is also provided to attend a Field Fair held jointly by Augsburg College and the University of Minnesota School of Social Work. At this Field Fair, students are able to meet a large number of agencies and potential field instructors. Practicum selection involves interviews at approved sites, arranged by the student, and a matching process conducted collaboratively by the field coordinators at the three MSW programs in the Twin Cities. In some instances, students can petition to complete a field practicum at an agency not on the approved list or at their place of employment. Students work with the MSW field coordinator for such proposals. • • • • • • • • victims of torture faith-based social services neighborhood services legislation advocacy housing services employment services community organizing research centers DUAL DEGREE IN SOCIAL WORK AND THEOLOGY Augsburg College's Department of Social Work (Minneapolis) and Luther Seminary (St. Paul) offer a dual degree: Master of Social Work and Master of Arts in theology (MSW/MA) or Master of Divinity (MSW/MDiv). The dual degree has been approved by both institutions and by the Council on Social Work Education. If you are interested in combining a Master of Social Work with a Master of Arts in Theology, we recommend you begin with the Luther Seminary program first and identify yourself as seeking the dual degree. For application information visit the Luther Seminary website at www.luthersem.edu/catalog/05_07/ dual_msw.asp. Purpose The dual degree focuses on meeting the educational interests of people planning to serve the spiritual and social needs of families, individuals, and communities in both rural and urban settings. Both institutions have a commitment to social and economic justice and to teamwork in the pastoral and human service settings. This joint program is ecumenical in its admission policies as well as its academic outlook. Objectives Field Practicum Settings Three primary objectives have been established: The Augsburg field faculty are committed to the success of each student in a stimulating and challenging field practicum. Our current list of approved field sites includes agencies in the following areas of practice: • To educate practitioners in social work and ministry who can combine the values, skills, and knowledge of both theology and social work to serve people in more holistic ways. • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • family and children child welfare mental health crisis intervention senior resources family social policy health and human services corrections and probation public and independent schools youth services hospitals developmental disabilities American Indian family services chronic and persistent mental illness chemical dependency court services immigrant, migrant, refugee services • To generate the partnerships necessary to serve the complex needs of communities and people experiencing transition in their lives, including the change of government support for those in poverty. • To prepare practitioners to seek the strengths of interdisciplinary teams in the human service and pastoral settings. Enrollment Dual degree students enroll in Luther Seminary courses first. Upon completion of this first year of courses, students then enroll in Augsburg courses for a second and third year (full-time). In the dual degree, Luther Seminary offers nine courses which can be completed in one year if pursued fulltime. The remaining Luther Seminary course requirements are waived and replaced by the Augsburg MSW curriculum. At Augsburg, dual degree students complete the entire MSW curriculum with the exception of the general elective. Course Format and Field Practicum Luther Seminary courses are offered on a weekday schedule and Augsburg College courses are offered on a weekend schedule. The field practicum is incorporated into the Augsburg curriculum and will be in a setting reflective of the dual degree program, such as congregational multidisciplinary teams, nursing home chaplaincy, and social work teams. The Luther Seminary program and the Augsburg College program are both full-time; it is not feasible for students to do both programs simultaneously. Summary of Dual Degree Requirements Luther Seminary full courses: 9 Augsburg College full credits: 12-advanced standing, 17-foundation (elective is met at Luther) MSW field practicum course credit hours: see guidelines under field practicum MSW Summative Evaluation Project Admission to the Dual Degree It is the responsibility of dual degree students to be aware of application deadlines for both institutions. Applicants must apply to each program separately. Please note: admission to one institution does not guarantee admission to the other. To request the catalog and application materials, you must contact each program separately. Financial aid is also a separate process. ADMISSION TO THE MSW PROGRAM The Augsburg College MSW program promotes the widest possible diversity within its student populatiop.. Therefore, the admission policies ensure that educational opportunities are provided to persons with a range of abilities, backgrounds, beliefs, and cultures. Listed below are general descriptions for the application process. Refer to the MSW application documents for details regarding specific application requirements.

Refer to the additional requirements outlined in Admission of International Students on page 9. Admission as a transfer student Students may apply to Augsburg as a transfer student. Transfer students follow the same procedure as new applicants. Transfer students may receive up to eight (8.0) transfer credits. (See evaluation of Transfer Credit on p. 6.) Eligible courses must be from a CSWE-accredited program and must receive a grade of B (3.0) or higher. Students must complete no fewer than 10 (10.0) courses at Augsburg in order to receive their MSW degree from Augsburg College. Admission with Advanced Standing Advanced standing is an application category open to those with a bachelor's degree in social work accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) . Advanced standing applicants may seek waivers for up to eight of the following MSW courses: Human Behavior and the Social Environment, History of Social Welfare Policy, Practice Methods 1 and 2, and Integrative Fieldwork Seminars 1 and 2, which include 420 field practicum hours. Advanced standing applicants must offer an equivalent BSW course for each with a grade of B (3 .0) or higher in order to receive a waiver. Admissions Q&A What do I do if my cumulative GPA is below 3.0? Our faculty are willing to review the application files of applicants with a cumulative GPA below 3.0; however, the comparative standard remains 3.0 or higher. A small percentage of applicants not meeting the GPA prerequisite may be admitted, if otherwise qualified. If your GPA is below 3.0, you must include a brief "Explanation of GPA" with your application documents. You should address the following questions: • Were there limitations that affected your GPA? If so, what is your plan to address these limitations? • Were there extenuating circumstances contributing to the GPA? If so , have those circumstances been resolved? Is human service experience required? Although it is not a requirement, strong preference is given to those applicants with paid or volunteer experience in human services, particularly experience that demonstrates responsibility and leadership. Applicants are advised that MSW field placement options may be limited for those who lack prior human service experience. What if my prerequisite coursework is not done? We require nine prerequisite courses for admission to our MSW program. These include four social science courses, three humanities courses, one biology course, and one statistics course. We are willing to review an application if at least seven of the nine prerequisites are finished at the time of application. This means a maximum of two prerequisites can be pending or unfinished at the time of application and the file will still be reviewed. In the event an offer of admission is extended, it will be conditioned on completion of any outstanding prerequisite courses before enrollment in MSW courses. What if my bachelor's degree is not yet finished when I apply? We are willing to review the application file of an applicant who is lacking one semester or two trimesters of coursework (including practicum) at the time of application. This means that when you apply to our program in January; if you have just finished your final fall semester but still have a final spring term to complete, you must ensure that your fall grades have been posted to the official transcript before having it sent to our office for your application. In the event an offer of admission is extended, it will be conditional on the completion of the bachelor's degree before enrollment in MSW courses. Is academic credit granted for life or work experience? Although experience will make for a strong application file, we are unable to waive any degree requirements for work or life experience. This is the policy in all CSWE-accredited programs. May I seek course waivers for the MSW courses listed on the BSSW Equivalency Checklist if I have taken these equivalent courses at the undergraduate level, but did not major in social work? Unfortunately; no. We offer course waivers for certain MSW courses only when the entire BSSW major (CSWE-accred- ited) has been completed by an applicant and we can therefore assume the applicant has been adequately prepared as a generalist social worker. For the particular MSW courses open for waiver to these advanced standing applicants, we expect a grade of B or higher in the BSSW equivalent course. But it also is expected that the remaining BSSW courses from the social work major were completed satisfactorily and the applicant graduated with an accredited bachelor's degree. If an equivalent course has been taken from another MSW program, please ask us about our transfer of credit procedure. Who makes the admission decision on my application file? Each application file is reviewed by three full-time social work faculty who each make a recommendation on the file. These recommendations are taken to the Social Work Admissions Committee which then renders a final admission decision. How long should my personal statement be? On average, MSW applicants submit a personal statement between three and five pages (double spaced). Approximately one page per question is considered adequate. Fewer than three pages is probably too brief, but more than eight is probably too much. May I visit to speak with someone for advice on putting together the strongest possible MSW application? Absolutely! You may contact our graduate admissions counselor at 612-330-1520 or e-mail to mswinfo@augsburg.edu to schedule an advising appointment. ACADEMIC POLICIES Academic Achievement Students must maintain at least a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. If a student falls below a 3.0 average, the student will be placed on academic probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point average must be restored in order for a student to be removed from probation. If the cumulative grade point average again falls below 3.0, the student may be dismissed from the program. Students are retained in the program who can: • maintain expected grade point average (3.0 or higher); • complete course requirements of the program and field placement in a timely manner; • complete the program within four years; • abide by the department's Standards for Social Work Education and the NASW Code of Ethics. • No more than two courses with a grade of 2.0 or 2.5 will count toward the degree. Courses with a grade below 2.0 must be repeated. No more than two courses can be repeated. Only the credits and grades earned the second time are counted in the grade point average. If a student receives a grade of N in a field course the MSW director will initiate a Level III review, as outlined in section 3.2 of the Standards for Social Work Education. Evaluation of Student Field Performance The criteria for evaluating field performance can be found in the MSW Field Manual, which is distributed to newlyadmitted students at our field orientation prior to seeking the field placement. www.aauw.org www.gradview.com www.finaid.org www.petersons.com www.students.gov www.srnexpress.com Four-Year Limit All students are required to finish the degree within four years of matriculation. See page 5 for policy on Continutation of coursework or final thesis. Leave of Absence Students who interrupt their program enrollment must request a leave of absence through the MSW program in order to maintain their admitted status. The request must be made in writing. A leave of absence typically requires a full year away from the program in order to return to classes in sequence. Examples of Social Work Graduate Scholarships Carl A. Scott Book Scholarship Two $500 scholarships offered each year to students from ethnic groups of color. Applications due in May (go to www.cswe.org).

Graduate Scholarship Search Tips Searching for grants and scholarships for graduate study can be an arduous task. As you may know, graduate students do not have access to many of the financial aid opportunities open to undergraduates. Because of this, we strongly encourage you to spend some time doing your own independent research into graduate funding available locally, nationally; and globally. The simplest way to begin a search for graduate funding is to look online. There are many "free" scholarship search engines on the Web. We suggest you start with these before moving on to the fee-based ser vices. As with most free services, there is a draw-back-your e-mail address may be shared with other organizations that may send you solicitations. You should always use caution when providing your personal information via the Internet. Make sure the webpage you are using to enter a "profile" about yourself is protected by a security system. This is usually indicated by your browser with a closed padlock icon in the lower right corner. You should also check the fine print and know if anything besides your e-mail address will be sold to other organizations. Having said that, the following websites may provide a good starting point for your search : www.naswfoundation.org www.gradloans.com www.cswe.org www.gradschools.com www.mnsocialserviceassoc.org www.fastweb.com Vern Lyons Scholarship One award ($2,000) offered to students interested in health/mental health practice and a commitment to the African American community. Applications due in August (see www.naswfoundation.org). American Board of Examiners in Clinical Social Work Several awards ($1,000 each) offered to students who demonstrate excellence in preparation for clinical social work practice. Applications due in March (see www.abecsw.org). MSSA Diversity Educational Scholarship One $500 award offered to students from African-American, American Indian, Asian, GLBT, Hispanic and Immigrant Cultures in completing their education in the Human Service Field. Applications due in June (see www.mnsocialserviceassoc .org). Marjorie J. Carpenter Scholarship One $1,500 award offered to students seeking education in the human service field so they may enhance their professional and/or technical skill development. Applications due injune (see www.mnsocialserviceassoc.org). Resources in Academic Libraries Most academic libraries have several directories to peruse if you prefer using hard print. Examples in Augsburg's library reference section: Grants Register Directory of Financial Aids for Women Scholarships and Other Financial Aid for Minnesota Students Financial Aid for Native Americans 1999-2000 (part of a series consisting of additional volumes for African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Asian Americans .) Augsburg Scholarships Augsburg's Social Work Department offers several scholarships each year. These are available to second-year students only. They range in amount from $300 to $3,000. Phyllis M. Baker Memorial Scholarship Edwina L. Hertzberg Scholarship Arvida Norum Memorial Scholarship Steen Family Scholarship Fund for Minority Social Work Students Edwin Yattaw Memorial Scholarship Bodo F. Suemning Memorial Scholarship Blanca Rosa Egas Memorial Scholarship AmeriCorps Tuition Discount Augsburg offers a tuition discount to students who are or have been AmeriCorps volunteers-25% off the tuition cost of one course per trimester. This would apply to all trimesters of your MSW program. Military Discount (see page 11.) Other Resources There is a general guide on Augsburg's webpage that gives advice to "seniors" about finding funding for graduate school-go to www.augsburg.edu/gradstudy. ACCREDITATIONS AND AFFILIATIONS Augsburg College is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. The Augsburg Master of Social Work program is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education ( CSWE). For a complete list of Augsburg's accreditations, approvals, and memberships, see page 3. MSW FORUM All MSW students are invited to participate in the studentrun organization, MSW Forum. The purpose of the forum is to facilitate communication between social work students and the social work department, as well as to provide the opportunity for student participation in department governance, curriculum development, and program improvements. As such, forum members are invited to attend Social Work department meetings via representatives. The forum historically has been volunteer based. Any student may serve on the forum, provided he or she can make a commitment to attend the meetings and share in the efforts. The MSW director and MSW program coordinator also serve on the forum. Other faculty may be invited as permanent members or as guests. • receive and give feedback on expectations of faculty, students, and the College • plan and coordinate MSW student events, lectures, discussions • organize social action projects FACULTY Anthony Bibus, III, Professor of Social Work, Department Chair.

I had no idea what to expec t or really what I was doing here. That nervous ness was soo n replaced ,vith feelings of relief and acco mplishment , even though the on ly thing I had do ne thu s far was show up . The faculty's app lause welcome d me into these new surr oundin gs and gave me a short preview of all the love and suppo rt I wou ld receive in the fut ure from everyone on this campu s, and in this community . Before I had entered the chapel , I already knew I was in for a lot more than I had plann ed. Little did I know I wou ld find out very shortly j ust how many opportuni ties and experie nces were lying there before me. Dean Kimball's speech uncovere d some of those possib ilities for me . I enrolled at Augsburg most ly for the academic end of things. The fact that it is a Lutheran school also ap pealed to me; however , that was simp ly an added incentive of the College . In the dean 's speech , which emphasized freedom on a political, persona l, and social level, I realized how much of my college career the religious aspect of Augsbu rg would be. Th e sta tement that "the trut h of Jesus and the cross set us free" really moved me. Over by Becky Michaelson '04 the last couple of years, I have become stron ger in my faith to God , and I was concern ed that I might lose that at school. In actuality, I now know that my belief can only grow stronger by being at Augsburg , surround ed by people who also aim to keep God as the center of their lives. Dean Kimball also said "a large part of freedom is prot ecting others' freedom" and that "freedom is depend ent up on a community ." Th ese statements revealed to me that an Augsbur g edu cation ,viii not only get me a degree to teach, but also provid e me with an environm ent in which I am able to be myself, worship my God , and be encomp assed by others who baule the same qu estions and concern s as I do everyday-in my faith , my schoolwork , and every other aspect of my daily life. The openin g convocation last Wed nesday showed me what being an Auggie is all about , and that everyone here, although each person has his or her own reasons for choosing this school, is also here for the sense of love and su pp ort this place offers, whether they kno w it or not. Th e deans speech and the convocation , as a whole, helped me realize this fact and served as a warm welcome into the Augsbur g commun ity. • Largest major s Day Business Adm1mstrauon Educauon Psychology Music Biology Weekend College Education Business Administration Nursing Computer Science MIS Students in the Class of 2004 were welcomed by facu lty and staff at the opening celebration . 4 ,4 uGSBURG NOW Winter 2000-01 Chapeltalk by Mark Engebretson , Professor of Physics Text: Exodus 35:30--36:1 his week Augsburg began its convocation series for the year, with a focus on the dialog between science and religion . You have heard somethin g of the long hisLOryof this dialog-il goes back al least 400 years, and il has become especially confusing and has engaged man y more people in this past centu ry. For some of you , the fact that there is any contact between science and religion al allwheth er that contact is friendly or not so friendly-ma y be a new idea . But for many OLhersit's been serious business , and a mauer of ongoing concern, or of strenuous or even biller deba te. We al Augsburg hope not only that science and religion can be in dialog , but Lhal by discussing them LOg ether we might find some clarity rather than conf usion , and be beuer equipped Lo deal with the comp lexities of our world. It's also consistent with our Lutheran roots, a Christian tradition born in a university, that they can and should be discussed LOgether. It's in that spiri t, of helpin g Lo prepare T was natural , and God called them Lo work the land and Lo use its resources. Walking with God meant living and work ing in the wor ld of Lime and mauer. Our text tells the sLOryof two craftsmen , Bezalel and Aholiab , who were filled ,vith God 's spirit so that they could design and build the tabernacle . It's significant that this is the firsl instance in the Bible in which God is said LOhave filled persons ,vith his sp irit. 0l Moses, the greal leader of Israel, but Bezalel and Aholiab , two craftsmen . ow later on in the Old Testa melll various proph ets and judges , and even ,vise King Solomon, were said LOhave received God's spirit-but it's notabl e that in the Bible, God's spirit isn't divided or specialized in the way our cu ltur e seems LOwant Lo divide it-into chur chly thin gs vs. secu lar or worldly thin gs. Creativity and leadership-in whatever field-are gifts from God . Much later, the prophet Joel used these word s Lo describe what wou ld happen after the coming of the 4essiah: "Everyone who is deeply involved in his or her earthly task, who is skill~d in the craft and wisdom of his or her particular work, brings about something real that they offer to humanity, and to God." ours elves for the important but thorn y issues related to this dialog , that I have gone back Lo what might seem an unlik ely source for a Lexl for this chap el Lalk-a tiny snipp et from the book of Exodu s.

In fact, the Lutheran traditi on insists that the call of God-th e call lo serve God-i s not limited Loa special class of Chri stians who by the supp osed holiness of their lives have placed themselves closer Lo their Creator. Instead , God calls all peop le LOvocations , which are focused precisely in and on thi s world . God indeed pour s out his spirit on all of us , and we serve God by serving each OLherin thi s wor ld. Luther and others, in fact, reacted against a strictly religious view of vocation that said only monks and other professional religious folks (o f both gend ers) had vocations. Luther said no: farmers , business people , laborers, stud ems, parems, childr en , all have equa lly imp ortalll vocatio ns. Lutheran can agree with those who say that hristianit y is really the most materialistic of all religions : it does not imp el us Loescape the world , but LOcare for it and fix it; we are not called LOescape from other people and their concerns, but Lo work with them. We can also agree that our vocations are informed by ou r faith. Vocations are the prin cipa l means by which the love of Christ, and the righteousness of God, make their way into the world , LOuphold it and to tran sform iL Vocation is our way of serving our neighbor , and taking care of our world .

Ambro se Wolr j oined the ph ysics faculty in August 1999, he has won great favor among his stud ent s, and his research has attracted both corpora te and intellectual interest. Previously at rlie University or Missouri -Columbi a, Wolr brin gs to Augsbur g ideas, hopes, and dreams to develop his specialization in experiment al cond ensed matter ph ysics. He began by establishin g a Thin Magnetic Film Research Laborato ry earlier this year. From the start , Wolr kn ew that he wanted stud ents to be involved in the lab's set-up and ensuin g research . So, in Janu ary, he recruit ed two stud ents, seniors Taher Om ar and Marc Tollds on , with an eye toward expandin g their involvement int o rull-tim e summ er research . "Ambrose brok e us in very slowly," says Omar, a ph ysics major. "He held a weekly seminar to discuss meth ods or research and certain topi cs th at we would be dealing with in the lab . Then we did literatur e research and present ed our findin gs to him ." The seminar allowed Omar and Tollefson to become familiar with the material, so that when they entered the lab , says Woir, they could "hit the floor dancing." "My aim is to get this on a continu ous cycle and start out two or three stud ents every year, get their reet wet in the seminar, and then get them into the lab ," says Wolf. , Winter 2000-01 By summ er, Wotr determin ed that Omar and Tollefson were ready to begin research and start maki ng thin magnetic films. These are essentially th in layers of magne tic materials, curr ently being used for read/w rite heads in comput er drives. "Both Honeywell and Seagate have prot otypes ror magnetic comput er RAM," says Wolf. "The RAM curr ently used in comput ers is fastworkin g, but when the comput er is turne d off, you lose infom, ation . With magnetic RAM, when you turn it back on , a second later you're right back where you left off.

'To start , we organized the lab , metals , which then condense on a found what we could use of what was subs trate to form a thin film.

"And th is chamber which can be made to the thinness of a [pictur ed above] is our first result. I single atomic layer.

Omars summer research was also funded by a McNair Scholars grant. In addition , Omar himselr wrote a Bush Foundation grant proposa l which was funded for the fall semester. "I had a lot of fun here this summ er," says Omar. ''I've never thought of myself as very mechanica l, but we've been able Loget this thing up an d running .

I found something that I really like LO do. Hopefully come gradua te schoo l, I'll be able Lo focus on research , because I trul y enjoy it." Computer science senior Cameron Rowe constructed a navigat ion robot with Legos as part of NSF-funded research designed and overseen by Karen Sutherland (pictured with Rowe on page 10) and Charles Shaeffer, computer science faculty members . A ugsburg senior Camero n Rowe never thoug ht the Legos he played with as a child would reapp ear years later in college. But this past summ er, he used the brigh tly-colored plastic blocks as the foundation of a robot he created in a co mputer science research project. The projec t, entitl ed the Robo tic Navigation Project, was conceived and developed by Augsburg associate professor Karen Suth erland and assistant professo r Charles Shaeffer. Funded by a grant from the National Science Founda tion , this und ergradua te program involved eight stud ents from four schoo ls. Rowe , Maisian Xiong, Ryan Forsberg, and Abdu lrashid Salad were among the Augsbur g stud ents; the other four participants came from the 12 A-UGSBURGNOW College of St. Catherine, the University of Minn esota , and the Fond du Lac Tribal and Communit y College. "My partner [Daniel Curry from Fond du Lac] and l worked on usin g neur al networks as a contro l system for ou r robot 's navigation ," says Rowe. "Neura l netwo rks simul ate the wo rkin g of a hum an brain ." Rowe and Currys neural network was a software constru ct wriLten in a simpl e form of th e C progr ammin g language. "Our initial goal was Locreate a robot that wou ld be able LO navigate within the environm ent of the comput er science wing of Sverdrup Hall," says Rowe. "But after some researc h and testing , we found that our robot's contro l board wasn't capab le of handling that comp lex of a task . ln the end , we created a neura l network that would be capable of helpin g a robot learn how Lo drive in a straight line, whic h may Winter 2000-01 nol sound so imp ressive. Bul what a lot of people don 't think about is the fact that when the y were childr en they had Lolearn how to walk in a straight line, too. And the way th is robot is learnin g is very similar Lo the hum an brain ." The robot , nickn amed CB3 for Cataglyphis Bicolor 3-Wheeler , is about one foot in height , and is com posed of Lego blocks and thr ee Lego wheels, a Hand y Board control board (de veloped al MIT and sold in robo tics stores) , two different types of sensors, and thr ee Lego gear motors. Part of Rowe's research experie nce includ ed writing a tech nical report of the project. The 22-page do cum ent , which includ ed det ailed backgro und inform ation and instructions , pictur es, and diagrams, was a valuabl e compon ent of the program , allowing Rowe the opp ort unit y to develop advanced tech nical writing skills. "A lot of people don 't think of research as being something Lhal an und ergrad do es," says Rowe. 'This was a great op portunit y, and I really enjoyed gettin g into programmin g issues that I had never even considered before." Professor Sutherland agrees . "l think il's so important for und ergradu ates to have the opportunit y to get involved in a research experience. It's cen ainly a great benefit for the faculty, Loo, because it lets you stay active in your field . 1 also really like working with und ergraduat es-th ey have mor e interesting ideas , and they're not restricted to the set ideas they've read about. "Emplo yers and gradua te schools look for NSF-sponso red wo rk because they know that you wouldn 't gel this grant if il wasn't a quality proj ect," continu ed Sutherland . 'The NSF is very selective, and they don 't often give these grants Lo small schools; they more often go Lolarge research uni versities, so it was really nice to be able Lo do this research." Rowe recently began a paid internship with United Defense in Fridley, where his work involves modeling and simulation of the W inter 2000-01 Crusader Artillery System for the U.S. Army. He credi ts his robo tics research experience with landin g a higher-Lhennormal internship wage. In the future , Rowe says that he would love Lowork further with robotics, and has considered appl ying LOa robo tics gradu ate program. The NSF grant is a thr ee-year grant , and Suth erland hopes to continu e receiving il beyond this period . "The bo LLOmline is that what a student learns in the classroom has to work , it's not just abou t theory," says Suth erland . "A stud ent research op portunit y suc h as this really brin gs everything together." ~~ ol all research projects involve robots or ph ysics equa tions. This pasl summ er, senior Cassi Van Ausdall and associate professor Jacquelin e deVries teamed up for history research , which was funded by a faculty/student N research grant from Augsburg 's Cent er for Professional Developm ent. ·w e did a literature review and a summ ary draft based on the que stion of wheth er there is a Christian perspective on histor y," says Van Ausdall. "And if th ere is, should that perspective be present ed in the classroom? "A lot of the project was spurr ed on for me by the Augsburg 2004 docum ent that the College publi shed ," cont inu es Van Ausdall. "A big ques tion that this document asks is 'how do we integra te faith into the classroo m?' Th is project went hand-inhand with th at qu estion ." Accord ingly, the second pha se of the project, which is still in progres s, involves Lak ing beginning -level Augsburg classes and exp lori ng how these faith perspec tives cou ld be integrated into the classroom . "Also, in the course of ou r research, Cassi asked some really good questions about who these historians were and A-UGSBURGNOW 13 wha t faith tradi tions they came from," says de\lries . "It opened up a wh ole other line of inqu iry about di fferent kind s of churc h-related schools, and how Aug burg differs from a lennonit e college or a Calvinist college. I think in the process we bo th became mu ch mor e in mne with what Aug bur g is, and what its theological and con Lituency base is." an Ausdall points out that their research served more as a "re-opening , rather th an as an opening , of disc ussion concern ing the nature of Christian cholarship ." "One thin g we realized coming int o th is research was that this was not necessa rily original research ," says an Ausdall. "\ e knew that a lot of historia ns had tried to tackle this ques uon or had asked the qu estion 'how does my faith integrate into my scholarship ?' o we had wanted to go back into the discussions that the>' had ope ned up and present the different views we saw. From that, we were curious to see if we could discover a new perspective that's particularly appli cable to a place like Augsbur g." De ries, wh o appr oached Van Ausdall abou t the projec t as a result of the student 's performance in her history class, The haping of the Modem World , was thrill ed to have the chance to work together. "It's been extremely useful and reall qui te wond erful to work with Cassi," says de ries. "I think too often faculty lose sight of their audie nce. We do n't often have these kinds of disc ussions where we know what is really going on in stude nts' minds . This projec t opened up some of that , and I believe it helped me think more carefully abo ut what my role is as a professor.n After graduation , Van Ausdall hopes to go into yout h ministry. In addit ion to the history research projec t, she also held an interns hip ,vith the Fellowship of Christian Athletes over the summer where she helped organize their high schoo l ......... lnlDd 14 A-UG BURG NOW camps. She curr ently serves as presid ent of the FCA on campu s and volunteer s with a youth group at her chur ch . "I've always had a heart for kid s, especially the high school age group ," says Van Ausdall. "That's where my passion s are." She also believes that she gained a lot from her summ er research project with deVries. "Jacqui is such a knowledgeable person ; it was awesom e to be able to work ,vith a professor of such high caliber," says Van Ausdall. "I for one believe that faith should be integrated more int o the classroo m , and th is research has given me a chance Lo see that oth er people have asked these qu estions, too. Being able to take a look at the different perspectives has allowed me to develop my own. That 's one of the reaso ns why I'm a history major -l o see what other peopl e have gone th rough and writt en before me and appl y it to my own life." • deV'rles (L to RJ,1Nmecl up for 1'85Nrdlto Investigate the existence amn lwnlng. Winter 2000-01 Cruisin' at Camp Snoopy byBe t seyNorgard "B esi des the [Snoopy] characters, we're the only regular live entertainment at one of the biggest tourist attractions in the count ry " Augsburg senior Trevor Johnso n is talking about the part-tim e j ob that he and four classmates have shared for nearly a year. They're the "house band " at the Mall of America's Camp Snoopy, the largest indoor theme park in the largest shoppi ng center in the cou ntry, in Bloomington , Minn. The Snoopy Cruisers-t rumpet, trombone, sousap hone, snare drum , and bass drum - wander through the park on Saturd ay and Sund ay afternoons , playing a musical repertoire to please the oldest and youngest mall visitors. During the summe r months , they played six da,ysa week in Camp Snoopy. "We play whatever we think would be a cool amusement park song-i t's like a pep band for a basketball game," says junior Brendan Anderson , who plays snare drum. Their selections range from '50s tunes to action movie themes to kids' songs. Music department chair and band director Robert Stacke recruited the Cruisers from his band members when he received a call from the mall, inquiring after a group that could be built around these particular five instrum ents. The band members each have a name-Clum sy Cruiser, Cool Cruiser, Classy, Quirky, and Curly Cruiser. The names are natural, says Anderson. "Its not a matter of us playing to the names, its the names playing to us." Their costumes are seasonal; durin g October when Camp Snoopy became Camp Spooky, the Cruisers donned orange "Ghostbusters" jumpsuits. While its not a typical part-tim e stud ent j ob , the Cruisers all feel that playing has been a valuable extension of their Augsburg stud ies. Junior Sara Seekins is a music therapy major. In addition to improving her range and techniqu e on the tromb one, playing often and for this many people has given her more confidence on her horn. The Snoopy Cruisers entertain Mall of Anderson , a music compos ition major, has collaborat ed America visitors with their mixture of music. with fellow Cruiser, sophomor e sousaphoni st Ben Duane, to (L to R) Lindsay Bonner, Trevor Johnson, Sara arrange all the music for the grou p. "I now know how to write Seekins, Brendan Anderson, and Ben Duane. for trombone , trump et, and tuba inside and out, " says Anderson. "We have a good 25 songs in our repertoire, and you really learn how to do it. " John son , the trump et player, is a bu siness and economics major who j oined the j azz and concert band s for enjoyment . After performing with the Cruisers, however, his career aspirations are leaning toward a job in the mu sic indust ry, combinin g music and business experience. Juni or music major and bass drumm er Lindsay Bonner sings in the Augsburg Choir and is a vocalist with Gospel Praise. "Playing percussion is definitely stretc hing me musically, and that is exciting . Next, I get a cowbell, too," she quipp ed . In their wandering around Camp Snoopy, the Cruisers attract lots of attention, especially when the live Snoopy characters join them to dance. "That's really the best time we have- when we can get together, both the band and the characters. They dan ce and we play, and everybod y really gets into it," says Anderson . "One of the greatest things is seeing kids get excited about the music," says Bonner, who occasiona lly rums over her mallet for kids to beat the drum. The Snoopy Cruisers take all of this publi c exposure in stride. Seekins ponders , "I wonder how many home videos we're in."

For eight years, Lilledahl obeyed the practical. After gradu ating in 198 7 with a B.A. in communi cations, she wo rked in public relations. But the urge to be on stage wouldn 't leave her alone. Following an acting class and a summ er pro gram in Los Angeles, she had the bu g. Lilledahl began performing. That's when she met her future husband and partner, John Sweeney He, too , had a business background but was thinkin g of a career change. Both eventually quit their jobs. Newly ar rived in the theatrical communit y with years of corp orate experience, they were misfits. Yet their background s aided them in fulfilling th eir own dreams. Dud ley Riggs was lookin g for someone to bu y his 39 -year-old theater. Who better than two peop le with busin ess savvy who were committ ed to th e field? In March 1997, the deal was finalized . "It felt like an opp ortunit y of a lifetime," Lilledahl said. ''.John and I have similar p rospects are mu ch bright er. Lilleda hl and Sweeney have revived the main stage at Calhou n Square. "The theater is the centerpiece of the business ," said Lilledahl. "Most of our energy goes there." Numb ers wou ld suggest she has also put mu ch effort int o the Brave New Institut e, a school that averages 16 different impr ovisation classes a week . It has grown from seven stud ent s to nearly 300 und er her guid ance. Brave New Commun ications, a forpro fit division , performs an d writes for corporations. "Because we have no outside source of fund ing , like most theaters in town, this component serves as our foun da tion , generating revenue for day-today expenses." Their bu siness also includ es Flanagan's Wake , an interactive theater experience, and a touring company, which serves as a training grou nd for main-stage actors. The two voices in Lilledahl's head now sing in uni son . "We run our bu siness the way we teach imp rovisation ," she said. "Our philosoph y is that you can say 'yes' and be prepared for anythin g only by being ope n to everythin g." • • "We run our business the way we teach improvisation. Our philoso phy is that you can say 'yes' and be prepared for anything only by being open fI ,\J, W-'L to everything." -J enni Lilledahl '87 , co-owner of Brave New Workshop creative energy. We both like to work hard and produ ce and create thin gs." The theater was stru ggling when they assum ed ownership , and as entr epreneurs, so were they. "The first year we had the bu siness, we didn 't kn ow what we were doing," said Lilledahl. "We had a vision , but we didn 't know how we were going to get there." Thr ee years later, the Brave New Workshop still carries debt , but the Winter 2000-01 Jenni Lilledahl '87 and her husband , John Sweeney , have improvised in t he ir entrep reneurial careers equally with their acting caree rs in pu rchasing , reviving , and building Dudley Riggs ' Brave New Wor kshop . A- UGSBURG NOW 17 Life passion to business lllission Kari (Eklund) Logan '82 has ah ays understood her life passion and the mi ion of her bu iness as one and the same. 1aybe that's why she's been so succes ful. Dave loore, an early mentor of Logan's when she worked at \ CCO, once told her , "You'll get there on goodness. " And she has . With busine partner Cindy Leines, Logan has maintained the passion that o man entreprene urs often lo e in the doing , namely, combining her commitment t the beuerrnent of families, business , and community with the service C.E.L. Pubhc Relauons , Inc . provides . "\: e help clients succeed in a hieving their dream ," he said . "By doing o , we achieve our own as well." When she graduated from Augsburg in 1982 with degrees in theatre and comm unications , Logan had )'et to see where her dream would take her. he certainly had no thought of own ing her own busine ss. She landed an interns hip at WCCO-TV, where she learned TV production . Then she spent four years on the assignment desk at Channel 5, whe re she eventua lly produced 'Twin Cities Live" until 1990 . But TV work had little ap peal. "Your !He isn't your own ," said Logan, who considers herself a "reco eringjourna list." Yet she is grateful for these first expe riences. "My knowl edge of producing has been an asset to our business ," she said . C.E.L. Public Relation s, Inc., in \ hich she became partner in 1993, hand les media relations for clients in several markets : health and education, an s and entert ainm ent , and, increasingly, food and banking. "Cind y is the visionary and strategist," said Logan . "I love to write, and have the prod uction expertise, while she handl es operations and manages our three empl oyees." Logan ackno wledges the challenges that come with being an entr epreneur-. "The dec isions I make as a bu siness owner impact four other families," she said . "We choose our clients carefully, because we want to believe in wha t they do. As a result, we've tu rned away a lot of wo rk." Even financia l decisions are hard . "I was raised conserva tively," said Logan. "It's har d to take risks, like when we moved from our base ment office to leasing space." Desp ite the challenges, Logan has never compro mised her principles . "Work is so much a pa n of you r life, you have to be doing what you love," she said. Clearly that has shown in the award- "We help clients succeed in achieving their dream. By doing so, we achieve our own as well. " - Kari (Eklund) Logan '82, co-owner of C.E.L.

Kari (Eklund) Logan '82 (right) and her business partner , Cindy Leines (left) , have built a reputation in media relations that includes placing guests on such shows as the KARE-11 Today show .

The firm also earned three bro nze medals from the Int ernational Festivals Association for marketing the Uptown An Fair. During the fair, Logan hired Augsburg theater stud ents as mimes. "It's great experience for them, and it helps us tremendous ly," she said. It's also one more examp le of how her goodn ess has gou en her to where she is today. Winter 2000-01 Answering a calling Like Saul on the road to Damascus, Lori Moline '82 had a life-changing exper ience du ring her senior year at Augsb ur g. An urb an studi es maj or, she spent a semester traveling on her own in Europ e. "Up to this point , I hadn 't wand ered too far from home," she said . "As a child , I even had a hard time going to summ er camp in north ern Minn esota." But traveling overseas help ed her discover abiliti es and interests she didn 't realize she had . "I decided I wanted the exploration of different cultur es to be a significant pan of my life," Moline said . After she gradu ated , the Office of Alumni Relations conn ected her with a man who had a small comp any that arranged tours to Israel and the Holy Land. "I convinced him to hir e me with out any travel indu stry exp erience," she said. "In one year, I was managing th e office." Moline work ed for a numb er of travel compani es before startin g CrossingBorders in 1996. She shares own ership equ ally "I find what I do a calling. My business is part of who I am." - Lori Moline '82, co-owner of Crossing Borders with her bu siness partn er, Marth a Van Gorder. "We saw the need to create intern ational group travel exp eriences that were mor e meanin gful," Moline explained . "Our services are based on a belief that travel is edu cational and transform ative." CrossingBorders creates intern ational tour programs for chur ch- affiliated group s, with a specialty in travel to Israel. "Every pro gram is uniqu ely customi zed out of the vision and mission of each chur ch leader we work with on a tour, " said Moline. One congregation want ed to do a service proj ect in Israel. Another group wanted music to be the focus. Along the entr epreneuri al way, Moline discove red what many new bu siness own ers do. "Th ere's more to creating a comp any than writin g a good bu siness plan and providin g great service," she said . "We needed to learn how to market our bu siness so people kn ew we existe d ." Moline also found her involvement in the Augsburg alumni communit y Winter 2000-01 ~ o, Oci,L~ ,yms ~~g boa rd helped me learn strategic plann ing and leadership skills," she said. "I even used th e professional services of a former classmate for our logo and image." Curr ently, Moline is wo rkin g on a tour to the Holy Land with former classmate Jeff Sand gren , a Luth era n pastor in Fargo. "It's been wond erful to bring together ou r experiences in creating something special for his congregation ," she said .

A-UGSBURGNOW 19 Meeting the people Sarah (Wojtowicz) tehly '88 intended to go to gradu ate school, but the constru ction indu stry was in her blood. Her father owned a stucco business, and she worked as an estimator since a teenager. Before her senior year, she planned and organized a seminar that introduced innovative construction produ cts from a North Carolina manufacturer trying to break int o this market. "I ran the seminar as an independent study to earn a communications credit and to help out the family business," she explained. "By the end of the day, the contractors who attended were placing orders." Her first bu siness, Simplex Constru ction uppli es, was born in July 1987. A college senior, Stehly learned the manufactur er had other produ cts for bu ilding brid ge decks and highways. "On my way to class one day, I marched into the Departme nt of Transportation and asked who I cou ld sell these produ cts to," she recalled . Soon after, implex was provid ing all cons tru ction materials for the Lafayette Bluff Tunnel along the orth Shore. The compa ny, which 1s involved in major constru ction projects th roughout th e upp er Midwest, will also suppl y materials for the light rail tun nel at the Mmneapolis/ St. Paul airport. said . In March 1993, Stehly started a second comp any, Construction Technology. Together, her two businesses serve thr ee indu stries: highway/h eavy market, commerci al contra ctors, and stucco cont ractors. As an entr epreneur, Stehly has followed few of th e rules. "I didn' t have a business plan , and I never had a bus iness course al Augsburg," she said. "After I gradu ated , I took a class to learn the basics, bu t everythin g else I learned by trial and error." Early on , she felt a particular disadvantage in matters of financing and banking. How did she survive? Stehly cites four strengths shes relied on these past 14 years. "Having a college edu cation is a plus," she said . "The com muni cations skills I developed at Augsbu rg have been critical to my success." Second , she has persevered . "I came into ownership by selling, and I know that if a good produ ct exists , there's a way to sell it." Honesty is also key. "I never have to guess at what I tell someone," she added . Finally, her people skills have allowed Stehly to develop good relationships with customers and provide excellent service. "Meeting the people-t alking to cont ractors at the site- keeps me energized and my business growing ," she said . • Lenore Franzen is afreelance writer who lives in St. Paul.

Winter 2000-01 From the president's desk s alumn i of Augsbu rg College, it is imp ortant to rememb er that we are a very diverse group and that we each had different experiences as Augsbur g stud ents. Some lived at home and commut ed to and from campu s; some came to Augsbur g as an adult with a jo b , kids, and a spouse to take classes over many, many years to get that degree; and oth ers came as 18-year-olds, lived in the dorm (or in an old house, now demolished , like me). These experiences become imp ortant wh en the College sets about to make conn ections with its alumni . That is the prima ry assignm ent of the Augsbur g Alumni Board : to find different and varied ways to conn ect A alumni with the College of today. I recent ly attend ed a gathering of Augsbur g alumni at 3M. There are hundr eds of Auggies workin g for 3M, an d a group of them have organized events to re-conn ect and to learn more about the Augsbur g of today. I talked with many form er stud ents of the College- and each had a different story to tell. The one comm on factor was an int erest in each other and in our College. 3M is helping us pioneer a concept of empl oyer-based alumn i group s as we seek to foster chap ters of Augsbur g alumni -o ne of the associations goals for the comin g year. Chicago area alumni have been invited to a gathering in early Decemb er to bui ld their regional chap ter. Our Homecoming weekend in October provided other opp ortuniti es to get Augsbur g alumni together. In additi on to hosting reuni ons of the Classes of 1950, 1960 , 1975 , and 199 0 , we recognized the outs tandin g accomp lishm ents of a numb er of our alumni who have distinguished themselves in the world and those who have given an extra measure of sup port to the College over the years. The dinner Saturd ay evenin g was lots of fun and was a successful alumni "event " for our communit y. Equally satisfying was a gathering of Augsbur g choir alumn i on Saturday mornin g to celebrate the joy of mu sic and of singing togethe r. Keeping conn ected has majo r benefits, both for the school and the individual. Soon the Alumn i Board hopes to develop other mechanisms for alum ni to help the College, such as a "welcome" letter to new students from individua l Augsbur g alumni , chances to get alumni back into the classroom to share the wisdo m and expe riences of their work , or a series of lectu res to promo te lifelong learnin g. All of these op portun ities can help keep you conn ected to you r alma mater ... you'll be surpri sed at what we can do together!

A publication for Augsburg College alumni and friends Spring 2000 • Vol. 62 • No. 3 Augsburg College, Minneapolis, MN McNair program 'demystifies' grad school for selected students By Lynn Mena Las! year, Augsburg received a four-year grant of $760,000 from the Ronald E. McNair Poslbaccalaureale Achievement Program of the U.S. Department of Education. One of three institutions in Minneso1a 10 receive the grant, it funds Augsburg's new McNair Scholars Program, which was officially launched in October. The purpose of !he national program, as defined by the U.S. Departmenl of Education, is 10 " prepare participants for doctoral st udies through involvement in research and other scholarl y activities." Its goal i to "increase graduate degree at1ainment of students from underreprese n1ed segments of society." A further purpose of 1he program is 10 encourage 1hese s1udents to become college professors. " I'm excited about the progran1:' says Vic1oria M. Littlefield, program director and Augsburg assislant professor of psychology. "It's really a chance 10 level the playing field for people who just didn't have graduate school within their world view - a chance 10 change their world view. h 's the kind of program I wish had been around when I was an undergrad. For people from non-traditional groups - group that don'! typically go on to gradua1e school - they gel there sort of accidentally. You know, a professor will stop them in the hallway and say 'Oh, have you thought about grad school?' One of the things we wan! to help assure is that this stuff happens sys1ematically." Chad Uran, in1erim assistan t direc1or of the program, agrees with Littlefield. "To mosl s1uden ts, and nea rl y all people, graduate school is a mys1ery;' says Uran. "They don't know wha1 it is, what goes on or what ii takes. The McNair Scholars Program is about gelling these students to seriously consider graduate school and to enter graduale school fully conscious of th e challenges and expectations in front of 1hem. " I would say tha1 in the past, student went to graduale school more by accident than design, or were ushered in by professors, family members or some other outside force," continues Uran. uSuch a system of recruitment is by its very nature exclusive. It is this type of system the McNair Scholars Program subverts'.' Eligible students are currenl Augsburg sophomores, juniors or seniors who demons1rate strong academic polential, and who are I) low income and firstgeneration college students, or 2) members of groups underrepresented in graduate education (e.g., African American, C hicano/ Latino or American Indian/ Alaskan Native). f.· ·-::r ,,.

Al the NCAA Division Ill na1ional wrestling tournament, Augsburg head coach Jeff wenson rarely smiles. wenson, hi coaching staff and his Auggie wrestler are all busine . In addi1ion 10 the dominance on the wrestling mal, th e Auggie.s were also dominant in the classroom. Augsburg placed second overall in 1he ational Wrestling Coaches Associa1ion's academic national slandings wi1h a 3.40 learn grade-poinl average, second to Wabash (Ind.) with a 3.48. In the three years 1he NWCA has awarded team academic nalional 1itles, Augsburg has won 1he title once ( 1999) and finished second twice ( 1998, 2000). Bui when the 2000 championships came to an end - after Augsburg had won its AA-record sixth national champion hip, crowned a record four individual national titlis1s and achieved one of th e most dominating performance in the history of college wrestling - you could finally see a smile appear on wenson' fuce. h was a small one at first, but it was soon a beaming grin for wenson, a he wa1ched Auggie after Auggie ascend the champion hip podium and finally, when the entire team took the stand with the g Id national champion hip trophy. "To be hon t, we felt a lot of pressure with where we were and what we we.~ coming from," w nson said after the m..,t. The coach was referring to last season, when the Auggi lo I the national chan1pionship 10 rival Wartburg College b • a slim m3.rgin.

AAL co-produced the movie with Germa n, Canadian and American films companies. It won top honors at the Monte Carlo Television Festival and will be broadcast natio nwide on public television in June. Augsburg's pictorial exhibit portraying the hie and legacy of Bonhoeffer, prepared in 1994 when Bonhoeffer was the subject of the Christensen Symposium, will be on d is play at several locations during May and June, including the German Information Service and Metropolitan Synod of the ELCA, both in New York; and at the AAL home office in Appleton, Wis.

Study finds that Augsburg day students overestimate alcohol and drug use on campus What students believe can shape their own behavior By Nancy Guilbeault T he "Augsb urg College Core Drug and Alco ho l Su rvey [Summary Report]: 1993, 1994, 1996, 1998;' supported by a grant from the Fund for th e Impro vement o f Pos t Secondary Education (FIPSE), provides the first lo ng- term data o n th e n ature, scope and co nsequ ences of d ay student usage of alco hol an d o th er drugs with co mpariso ns to n ati o nal data. T he study finds that Au gsburg students' alco ho l co nsumption pattern s are similar to th ose repo rted in natio nal d ata. As summ arized in the repo rt, "alco ho l and to bacco are the m ost frequ ently used drugs at Augsburg College." And, also like n atio nal patterns, a mo re important find in g is that Au gsburg day stud ents ove restim ate the use of alcohol and other drugs o n campus. T his is significant since resea rch has shown th at these m ispercep tions can sha pe th e beh avio rs o f students in making d ecisions co nce rnin g th eir own alco ho l and drug use. Resear ch also shows th at students co m e to campus with these misperce ptio ns in place and that campus culture reinforces them. In o rder to grapple with this, a number o f college campuses h ave ado pted th e relatively- new "social no rms strategy" of beh av ior change. This a pproach focuses o n the reality o f the more mod erate drinking behavio rs with the intentio n of reducing frequent drinking behaviors and preventing negative co nsequences related to alcoho l and other d rug use. Healthy behaviors are docum ented and reinforced, while problem behavio rs are de -emphasized. "The good news is th at Augsburg stud ents are similar 10 others across th e U.S.;' says Ann Garvey, associate dean for stud ent affairs. " However, that also mea ns that, like o th er colleges, we must wo rk with studen ts to reinforce positive behaviors and minimize the negative behaviors. "The social norming strategy is a way to get out the good news about students and their choices, and to use that positive message to reinforce good choices:• Augsburg's application of this strategy can be seen in a recent ca mpus ca mpaign to prevent DWI (drinking while intoxicated ). The message on posters across campus, supported by the Core Survey d ata, is that " most Augsburg students choose to prevent DWI." This ca mpaign was funded by a grant fro m the Minnesota Department o f Public Safety for the work of the Preventio n Collaboration, a group of several private colleges and universities in St. Paul and Minneapolis formed to provide cooperative alcoh ol and drug prevention services. T he group is coordinated by Casey McGuire, a health educato r in Au gsburg's Center for Counseling an d Health Promotion (CCHP ). i :, t I J - Nancy G11ilbea11lt is director of the Center for Co11nseling and Health Promotion.

AUGSBURG NOW Editor's note: News/medio director Don Benson and I were fortunate to accompany two of the Interim travel classes in January-Dan went with a class on a bus tour through the U.S. South, visiting places of historic importance to the civil rights movement. I traveled to Cuernavaca, Mexico, with a Center for Global Education course. Seeing through their eyes ... By Betsey Norga rd Twenty Weekend College students, coinstructor Don Christense n and I set off from snowy Minnesota for Mexico - not ror a week or fun-in-the-sun , but to study Religion 366, Mexico: The Church and Social Change in Latin America. It was a chance to briefly encounter a culture with which we were unfamiliar, or knew o n]y as tourists. Already on the first mo rning th ere, our immersion began. For an assignment called the Cuernavaca Quest, we were sent into th e cit-y, in gro ups of three, without translators or guides, to visi t the main plaza, the cathed ral and the central market. We had to purchase a kilo of frijoles and check ou t the prices of several common house hold items. Upon returning to Casa CEMAL, Augsburg's study center and our home for the week, we were asked to list words describing what we saw, heard and smelled in the city. Ou r week's act ivities included visits to historical site , lectures o n Mexican history, a visit to a convent to hear th e story or the Vi rgin or Guadalupe and discussion of liberation theology, th e Catholic movement or the 1960s and '70s that put social and th eological focus on th e pli ght of the poor in Latin Am erica. The rea] learning durin g the wee.k, however, came from the people we met and the stories and experiences they shared. We met women strugglin g to co nfro nt the social norms that have limited their roles to being mothers and housewives. We saw the strength they've found in the small, neighbo rhood Base Christian Community groups that grew out of liberation theology, giving them dign ity and voice to seek education and work. In the small indigenous town or Tepotzl:ln, we met members of a women's cooperative who successfull y led a three-year struggle with the government (at times violent) to prevent the building of a go lr cou rse and country club that would usurp their crop land and pollute the environment. But by the end of the week, we discovered that the real lesso n was with in ou rselves we had to learn to see Mexican culture through their eyes in order to truly understand. In looking back on the initial Cuernavaca Quest assignment, we realized tha t we saw, heard and felt the city from our ow n cu]tural perspectives, by allowing our own past experiences to influence what we saw and felt. " I imposed my own cult ure instead of taking their culture into myself," said one student. Another added , "We all had our lists - gotta do this, gotta do that. That's how we approached the q uest, like North America ns." And this speaks directly to the goals or the Ce nter for Global Education's travel seminars and cou rses - that by gaining Historian Armando Lopez's lessons at the ruins of Xochicalco brought to life the eighth-century indigenous culture and ceremony. Center for Global Education intern Stacie Steinbock (center, with hat) translates for the group. better understanding of social issues locally and globally, we can make more informed decisions within ourselves and our communities relating to social justice. Jon Sobrino, the author of our class text on liberation theology, co ncluded a seminar once by sayi ng, "Let the people in Lati n America keep moving you when you return home." Patricia Hume, our Mexican co-instructor, brough t it home for us " Keep the images of this week in your hearts, like the pictures yo u took." .. . and walking in their shoes By Dan Benson Twenty- three Augsburg stud ents became immer ed in civil rights history during the Interim course Civil Rights Immersion. Following two weeks of study, the stud ents embarked on a I 0-day bus trip to the South, stopping in cities where historic civil rights events happened. Leading the tour were the course instructors, sociology proressor Garry Hesser and Pan-Afrikan enter director Joe Young. In Little Rock, Ark., the jou rney's lirst stop, studen ts met Elizabe th Eckford , one or " The Little Rock 9," who in September 1957 faced an angry mob as she and eight other African -American students walked to Central Hi gh School to integrate it. Meeting Eckford was th e most memorable part of the trip for freshman Sop hi a Thompson. " [Listeni ng to Eckford! made me rea] ize that the past can' t go away," Thompson said. " It's gonna always hurt. It's always gonna be there, but you have to grow from it. You can't erase it, you can' t forget it. You just have to take it as a learning experience and learn from it and keep moving on." In Memphis, Tenn., the students toured the ational Ci,•il Rights luseum at the Lo rraine Motel, where Manin Luther King, Jr., was assa inated in April 1968. " randing and looking at the spot where Martin Luther King died had the most impact." said sophomore Nekesha May. " I just couldn' t believe that I was actually there at the hotel where he was shot, looking at where he la)' after he was dead." While many or the tour tops emphasized hi to ry, the uthern Poverty law Center in lontgome ry, Ala., offered perspective on current eve.nts. Internationally known for its tolerance education program and the tracking and prosecuting of hate groups, the center raised questions for sophomore Amanda Hasz from Mitchell, S.D. " I noticed on the m ap that in South Dakota there weren' t any hate groups listed;' Hasz said, "but then I realized that there is so much raci sm there, but it is aU real subtle and undercover. I sta rted th inking, ' is it worse to have hate groups and know the people who hate you, or is it worse to not know if people hate you, or to not know what they a re thinking?'" Some sites prompted students to try to place themselves in the historical events. Senior Matt Lang imagined walking over the Edmund Pettu s Bridge ( elma, Al a.) wi th thousands of peo ple in a 1965 m arch for voting rights. " I was envisioning th e troops , just expect ~ in g them to be there , si tting there waiting for us to come over the bridge," said Lang, "and it kind of made me think sadness, anger, just trying to put myselr in that si tuati on." In Atla nta, students toured the Martin Luther King, Jr., Center for Non-Violence and King's boyhood home and wo rshipped at Ebenezer Baptist Church, where King, like his father a nd grandfather, served as pastor. Other stops included Nashville and Chicago. Offering this course was important in the context of Augsburg's mission and com• mitment to intentional diversity, Hesser explained. " I think its importance was captured by one of the students, who said that what made the course especially valuable was having two instructors - one wh.ite and one black - work together in a way that Augsbu rg students on the civil rights tour stop to pose for a photo at the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Ala. mirrored what was being taught in the course; Hesser said. "This student said seeing how Joe and I enjoyed teaching this course together - making use of and affirmi ng our differences - brought more meaning and a deeper understanding of the issues we were studying, and set the stage for our travels together.• Young said he hopes the class will ha,-e an impact on furthering race relations at Augsburg. • we wanted the immersion experience to address issues of race relations, and to particularly address the issue of relations between African-Americans and European-Americans," Young said, • because race relations in its greatest form is a black-and-white issue, with struggles that date back to the beginning of slavery."

MINNEAPOLIS, MN CAMPUS NEWS • 5 FA CUL TY PERSPECTIVES Kttplng trade, continued CiAIIRY HUSER, sociology and Faculty advising doesn't end with graduation By Betsey Norgard Tony Bibus, associate professor of social work and director of the bachelor of social work program, understands how difficult it can be for a social worker in the field to connect with a licensed supervisor with whom they must work if seeking licensure. So, in add ition to his teac hing and advising current students, he volunteers his time to an Augsbu rg alum who needs a licensed dinical superviso r. j In addition to the specifics of certain cases, their discussion also includes how larger ethical issues transfer to other cases.

JEANNE BOEH, economics, joined Scandinavian music collection accessible worldwide By Deborah Hutterer Augsburg's rare collection of Scandinavian music, contai ni ng approximately 1,400 compositions and over 500 recordi ngs, is now accessible onli ne to researchers everywhere. For the past 33 years, the collection has been available only to Augsburg library patrons, cataloged on 3x5 cards. In 1966 Augsburg was given the Scandinavian collection as a donation from tl1e Ame rican-Scandinavian Foundation (see story in the Augsburg Now, Spring I 999). Botl1 the library and music staff were interested in making tl1is collection more widely available and invited Professor Dag Schjelderup-Ebbe, a noted musicologist from the University of Oslo, to evaluate the music. His determination that the collection has great value and includes one-of-a-kind pieces encouraged the College to seek funding for cataloging. A grant from Aid Association for Lutherans (AAL) allowed the library staff to send the catalog cards to the Online Computer Library Center (O CLC) in Ohio, where they were converted into machine readable files that can be loaded into CL!Cnet, the library's online catalog. Outsourcing the conversion project to O CLC was advantageo us primarily because OCLC has staff with exper tise in cata loging music and non- English language materials. As a result, the project was completed much faster there than it could have been done at Augsburg. Cataloging records in an online format allows patrons to search them locally in CL!Cnet and makes them available to scholars and =archers aro und the wo rld_ "Th= musical scores have been distinguished as a solid, core collection of well-known and lesser known ndinavian composers, gh'lllg it depth SPRING 2000 as well as breadth," says librarian and professor Kare n Mateer.

Over its 13 1 years, the College has been shaped by the rich heritage and history of the Lutheran church. At Augsburg students are nourished in spiritual growth, are challenged to learn through experience, and leave ready to touch the fives of those with whom they live, work and worship. On the next several pages, we explore the many ways in which spiritual growth is integral to an Augsburg education. Living and nurturing faith in daily life By Lenore Franzen A new electronic carillon o n top of Chr is tensen Center rings hymn tunes each day as a reminder of Chapel time. Beyond directing attention to this daily activity in Hoversten Chapel, the carillon also symbolizes the presence of spiritual life campuswide - in classroom discussions of faith issues, in lunchtime conversations studen ts have with the campus pastors, in basketball tournaments with area church groups. David Wold, campus pastor and director of ministries, explains the role of campus ministry. "The founders believed that education should take place in a holistic environment." he said. "The spiritual piece is an important component." Wold and Sonj a Hagander, associate pastor for outreach, provide pastoral care and a supportive, advisory role to student-led programs. "We're on call to the Augsburg community constantly and get involved in the lives of hundreds of students," affirms Wold. Core to campus ministry are the daily chapel services and th e Wednesday night communion service. "They keep Augsburg students connected to word and sacram ent and to the wider church," said Hagander. Under Wold and Haga nder's direction, students have initiated an impressive campus ministry program. From recreational activities to yo uth leadership summits to music festivals, these activities have attracted a growing number of students, community members and congregations. Hagander came to Augsburg in I 998 to help expand campus ministry outreacl1 and inreach activities. "We're the only Lutheran college within a half hour of more th an 300 ELCA congregations;' she said. "We have an opportunity to show what life is like in a city and to be good stewards of it." The real leaders within campus ministry, according to Wold and Hagander, are the students. Ross Murray, a senior majo rin g in youth and family ministry, is co-head coordinator of th e tudent Leadership Team. The team acts as a kind of "church council," directing and supporting campus ministry efforts. " I like the variety campus ministry offers," Murray said. "Each time we try something different, we draw new people in. It's impo rtant for students, the community and congregations to recognize each other's presence." Kir<ten Arveson (left) and Erin Moore (righ t) are among students involved in campus ministry programs. They are pictured here in the chapel balcony with associate campus pastor Sonja Hagander. For years, o utreach has been a foc us of campus ministry through community programs, service projects and food programs. Clowning teams go to hospitals, nursing homes, unday schools and congregations. "These teams allow students to try out music they've written, leadership skills, devo tion al storytelling, peer ministry, even preaching," said Hagander. Campus Pastor Dave Wold takes a momen t after chapel to share storiei with freshman Nathan Erickson and senior Rozenia Fuller. Sports and recreation have also attracted a number of students. Junio r Arn1i e Osberg, a women's varsity hockey player who also plays intramural volleyball and softball, joined the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) as a freshman. " FCA offered me ano ther way lo grow spiritu ally," said Osberg, who plans lo be a church youth direc tor. " I've always been a strong Christian," she added, " but getting involved in FCA has give n me a better perspective on how fa ith and sports relate." An example of how campus ministry partners with athletics is the involvement of Wold as anno un cer and chaplain for Augsburg's men's athletics. He also initiated a basketball league among area EL A congregations. " ixtysome tea ms and hundred of player are involved in this evangelistic effort, and the growth potential is great," sa id Wold. "Augsburg is a catalyst because of its location and the talen ts of our students as coaches, referees and spiritual guides." In 1999, a student experi enced in outdoor act ivities started Faith Adventures. "Students stretch themselves physically and incorporate devotional materials into the challenge," said Hagande r. Hagander has also encouraged a number of inreach programs, which bring students, th e community and congregations to Augsburg. Last fall saw the first Youth Leadership Summit, a weekend for ninth- through I 2th· grade rs. Another recent addition to campus ministry events is th e AuggieFesl, first held in May 1999. "It'• a music festival with five o r six hristian bands, open to the communi ty:' aid Rachel elle, a junior biology major who organized 1he all-day event in Mu rphy Park. Hagander offered the first-ever Weekend College women's retreat in February. "We're trying to connect with women who are extremely busy," he said. The retrea l included stress management techniques, music, devotions, journaling and a spa. C1mpus ministry also works with other groups at Augsbu rg. "We partner wi th th e music departm ent t provide the annua l Advent Vespers services at Central Lutheran Church invo lving hundreds of students and nearly 12,000 auendees," said Wold. Ray Makeever, a local m us ician who plays with the group Bread fo r the Journey, assists with campus worship, especiall y the Wednesday night service. He has helped attract more student leaders. "First, we need 10 take care of people's personal spirituali ty," said Wold. "Out of their faith will come the activi ties and outreach." Lenore Franzet1 is n freelance writer who lives in t. Pa11/. A dual master's degree to serve both social and spiritual needs This year Aug burg College and Luther minary launched a pilot program offering a dual degree in social work (M . .\ .) and ministry (M.A. or M.Div.).

As one who knows both traditions well, I applaud this, with prayer that new things will continue to spring forth from this recommitment to some of the major values of both Augsburg College and Luther Seminary.

Sharing t he faith with inner-city kids ~,,.<.-_-JL-,,--., By Betsey No rgard Augsburg youth and family ministry senior Ross Murray filled out a visitor ca rd at entral Luthera n Church in Mi nneapolis o ne Sunday morning and ended up with an internship. On kind of a gutsy whim, and anticipating the 100hour internship his study required, he wrote "internship?" on the card - and to his pleasant surprise, they took him up o n the suggestion . Since September, he has met on Wednesday evening with a group of senior high youth at Central, working with them on community service projects. On unday mornings, Murray is part o f the ninth- and 10th-grade education hour, and trains 10th-graders in peer mini try. In addition, he participate in the va rious retreats and activities with the youth. About hnlf of the 80- 100 youth at entral are not children of congregation members. They are neighborhood kids, many non-white and non- hristian , who find enrral to be a safe place where they can do fun thing with their friends, "We end a bu around to pick up the kids," Murray explained , and said that others are beginning to come once they AUGSBURG NO W see their friends leave on the bus. " It's really good outreach for us." The youth and family ministry major, begun in 1996, partners the religion department with Augsburg's Youth and Family Institute. The major is designed to train people who seek leadership roles in their churches, but not necessarily as ordained ministers. "The youth and family ministry major is practical; a religion major gives you the knowledge in theology, but doesn't necessarily teach you how to share it_ wi th others;' said Murray, "The special classes we have teach us to go into a congregation, to share our fa ith, and to relay the knowledge we've learned."

Some 30 years later, the gro unding experi ence Au gsburg gave her see ms the obvious training fo r her roles at the synod and national offices. For 11 yea rs Sheie served as assistant to two Saint Paul Area Synod bishops, Lowell Erdahl and Mark Hanson. In 1998, she moved to Chicago, where she is executive assistant to ELCA Bisho p H, George Anderson. In that capacity, she and two colleagues coo rdinate staff services on behalf of the bishop. Sheie is invol ved in planning, budge ting and preparing agendas for churchwid e assemblies and coun cils, and acts as liaiso n with a variety of boards and groups. Comparing her synod and national roles, Sheie said, " I work for the same church but with a different foc us. At the synod level, I was more connected with congregations, pas to rs and lay leaders. Here my focus is churchwide." Augsburg prepared her well. "With its urban location, Augsburg has always been oriented to service beyo nd its waUs;' said Sheie. "As an English and educati on major, I had direct experi ence with children in the neighborhood built into my training:' Mark Hanso n and Sheie were classmates at Augsburg.

Sheie also acknowledges the many leaders Augsburg has nurtured, Hanson amo ng them . Sheie herself was active in campus leadership roles during college. Dail y, Sheie sees Augsburg's mission for its students played o ut in her life. " My liberal arts education at Augsburg gave me a broad base to move from ," she said. " I was Myrna Shele '68 encouraged to engage in both critical and creative th inking. Yes, we had to learn the material, but in new and fresh ways, so that we could embed th at learnin g into our lives and m inds." From her current perspective, Sheie understands the critical role Augsburg and other ELCA colleges play. " Unlike schools in so me other denominations, Lutheran colleges have maintained a stron g co nn ection to the church," said Sheie. "The ELCA secs its colleges as valuable resources. The chu rch's link strengthens the colleges and gives us a way to claim a mission in the world. "Graduates of Lutheran colleges also become tremendous reso urces to congregations because they continu e to be involved in the church, often as leaders," she added. For Sheie personall y, Augsburg holds a meaningful place in her life, She transferred her sophomore yea r so she could live at ho me following her father's death.

AUGSBURG NOW 12 • SPORTS Athletic facilities receiving major renovations By Don Stoner Back in 196 1, Si Melby Hall was unveiled to rave reviews. An innovative, multipurpose facility which was used as a gym nasium, chapel, convocation center and concert hall. Porty years later, the building is getting its first majo r facelift. A new gymnasium floor is being installed for the fi rst time since the building's opening. New bleachers will be placed in the gymnasium , along with a complete HVAC (hea ti ng, ve ntilation, air conditioning) setup for the building. The lower-level fitn ess center is receiving its second expansion in a year. Lower-level athletic department and hea lth and physical new das her boards, bleachers and a new paint job in the main rink. "There's a lot of enth usiasm abo ut the scope of this project," said James Carey, Augsburg's director of at hletic facilities. "This is the biggest improvement made Lo Si Melby Hall in fo ur decades." Augsburg's athletic faci lities are constantly used, not only by the College's 17 varsity athletic teams, but also by a wide cross-section of the Augsburg and greater communities. More than 600 Augsburg students, faculty, staff and alumni participate in the College's intramural programs, noted Kris Kraft, the College's , intramural coordinator. educa tion departme nt offices are being moved and renovated. And the renova tion is not lim ited LO Melby Hall. The Augsburg Ice Arena, celebrating its 25th an niversary this school yea r, is also rece iving a major renovation , with A new heating/a ir cond itioni ng system is part of the M elby Hall renovatio n. yea r have used the Anderson-Nelson Field indoor ai r structure for youth and adult leagues or programs sponsored by the Minnesota Thunder pro soccer team . The Ice Arena is used year-round by local youth and adult hockey teams, along with hockey camps. "We're operati ng our facil.ities pretty much 365 days a year, serving not only our community but the greater community, too;• Carey said. "So many people have heard about Augsburg College because they've come here for you th soccer or yo uth hockey or our learn-to-skate programs. That's their first exposure to the College." Work began on the facilities in early March , when athletic department and health and physical education department offices were moved from Melby Hall into two portable trailers adjacent to the Ice Arena. Much of the work in Melby Hall is slated LO be completed by the time of the College's The Twin Cities Sports Connection, a regional adult athletic league, holds many of its programs in Melby Hall and AndersonNelson Field, drawing several hundred adults to the college during each sport season. As many as 1SO This year's athletic facility renovations are the first steps in a long-term plan to expand and improve athletic fac ilities at the College. The vision for the future includes ano ther expansion of Si Melby Hall and a new fieldhouse, to serve the increased needs for athletic faciliti es by the school's athletic teams, the greater Augsburg community and the entire soccer tea ms per regio n. Commencement exercises. Wrestlers continued from page 1 Over the past three yea rs, Aug burg is the only school to have placed in the top IO both academically and on the mat each year. "That's the foundation of our program, academics," Swenson said. "That's the cake, the base of everything we do in our program. The icing on the cake is our national title on the mat. If our guys weren't doing it well academically, getting the grades and getting good jobs after graduation, we wouldn't get the great crops of wrestlers we get. We do it right. These guys are the ideal of what a true student-athlete can be. They deserve all the credit." Augsburg also had IO NWCA Scholar All-Americans, matching its NCAA alldivisions record total of two seasons ago. Swenson earned the respect of his fellow coaches, being named NWCA Division UI National Coach of the Year for the fourth time (199 1, 1995, 1998, 2000). Swenson's assistants, all Augsburg alumni - Scott Whirley '79, Don Wichmann '89, Dan Lewandowski '97, John Pena '98, Wade Johnson '98, Jamie Hilya r '97 and Jim Peterson '99 - deserve a lion's share of the credit, he said. Only six schools in all NCAA divisions have ever won a seventh national title. The Auggies will lose eight seniors, including four All-Americans, but will return seven wrestlers with national tournament experience (six All-Americans) next yea r. Women's hockey repeats MIAC title; men are second in basketball By Don Stoner Women's hockey For the second yea r in a row, Augsburg's women's hockey team claimed the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference regular-season championship. And this yea r, the Auggies made more history in their fifth varsity season, qualifying fo r the fi rst-ever Division Ill national championships. Augsburg cruised through the MIAC campaign with a 12- 1- 1 conference mark, tying St. Mary's for the league title. In the MIAC playoffs, the Auggies swep t St. Benedict 3-0 and 7- 1 in the semifinals and swept perennial rival Gustavus 4-1 an d 2- 1 in the championshlp series to improve to 2 1-5- 1 overall, advancing to the AWCHA Division Ill national finals agains t ECAC champion Middlebury (Vt. ) in Boston, Mass. National title re ults will appear in the next issue. Angie Rieger (Jr., Courtland, Minn./New Ulm HS) earned M lAC Player of the Year honors by conference coaches. Rieger was a first-team AII-MIAC sele tion for the second yea r in a row, along with defender Emily Miller ( r., Blaine, Minn.) and goalie Meg chmidt (Sr., West St. Paul, Minn./Henry ibley HS). Fonvard Sarah Garrison also was named All-MIAC first team for the first time as an Auggie, along with fonvard Erica Johnson (Sr., Blaine, Minn.). Men 's hockey ugsburg' men's hockey team reached the LIAC playoffi; for the third season in a row, as a young squad continued to show signs of improvement throughout the year. The Auggies finished 10-13-4 overall and -5-3 in the MIAC, good for third place in a competitive league tandings. The AUGSBURG NOW Auggies faced eventual MIAC playoff champion Concordia- Moorhead in the playoff semifinals, but were swept by the Cobbers in two games in Moorhead. Freshman Jaroslav Cesky (Fr., Prague, Czech Republic) earned AII-MIAC honors by leading the team in scoring ( 14 goals, 19 assists, 33 points), as did senior captain Steve LaMere for the second yea r in a row ( 10 goals, 20 assists, 30 points). Goalie Rya n McIntosh (Jr., Calgary, Alberta/ Bishop Grandin HS) earned AllMlAC honors for the third straight yea r, with a sterling .904 save percentage and 3.24 goals-against-average. Men's basketball Augsbu rg didn't let the loss of NBA draft choice Devean Geo rge to graduation affect the squad in 1999-2000, as the team qualified for the MlAC playoffs for the fo urth straight season and finished second in the conference standings. The Auggies finished 16-8 overall and 15-5 in the MIAC, the fifth straight yea r the Auggies have won I 5 games or more in a season. Augsburg lost in the MIAC playoff semifinals to eventual conference playoff champion St. John's 58-57. For the third season in a row, Augsburg had a player earn MlAC Player of the Year honors, as senior point guard Jeof&ey Reed (Sr., Minneapolis, Minn./De La Salle HS) shared the honors with St. John's Troy Bigalke. Reed ,vas the team's key leader all season long, averaging 14.3 points and 3.8 rebounds per game. He ended his career with 79 1 points (27th-best in school history) and 249 career rebounds. Reed was a first team All-MIAC selection and a selection fo r the second year in a row to the conference's All-Defensin, Team. Reed and Kevin Van Rossum (Sr., Green Bay, Wis./Preble HS) formed the best backcourt combinatio n in the conference. Van Rossum broke the school's career record for three-point shooting, hitting 239 extra-pointers on his career. The total puts him second alltime in MIAC history in career threepointers (all games). Van Rossum, an AII-MIAC first team for the second straight year, finished his career wi th 1,025 points, 15th-best in school history. Women's basketball A young Augsburg women's basketball team showed strong improvement throughout the 1999-2000 season, finishing the year wi th a 6- 19 overall record (6-1 6 MIAC), doubling the number of victories from last yea r. With only two seniors on the roster, the Auggies had to rely on a deep rotation of young playe rs all season long, and were able to contend in several gam es against much more experienced opponents. Jodi Soule (Sr., Cannon Falls, Minn.) earned All-M IAC first-team hono rs on a vote of conference coaches. Men's and women 's indoor track and field It was a year for record-setting performances for Augsburg's indoor track and field teams, as the Auggie teams combined to set I 3 new school marks during the indoor season. For the second year in a row, Carrie Lind (Jr., Coon Valley, Wis./Westby HS) finished second in the nation in the 20pound weight throw at the NCAA Division Ill indoor national championshlps in Bloomington, ill. Lind had battled a foot injury most of the indoor season and did not compete until the last meet before the MIAC meet. Jeoffrey Reed (3) brings the ball up the court during Augsburg's home game against Carleton on Jan. 17 al Melby Hall. Reed was named MIAC Co-Player o·f the Year for men's basketball this season. At the national meet, Lind finished second to HarnJine's April Felt in the event, ,vith a best throw of 53- 10 1/2 (16.42 meters). Chrissy Baune (So., Marshall, Minn.) continued her assa ult on the Auggie record books, setting new school records five times in the indoor campaign. She earned All-MIAC honors in three events at the MIAC meet, finishing second in the 3,000-meter run and third in the 800 and 1,500. On the men's side, Christian Dawson (So., lnvercargill, New Zealand/Cargill HS) achieved two school records - in the 1,000-meter run and 1,500-meter run, and earned All-MIAC honors in those two events at the conference meet, firlishing third in each. Desman Oakley (Jr., Indianola, Iowa) finished second in the men's 55-meter hurdles at the MIAC meet to earn allconference honors. MINNEAPOLIS, MN ALUMNI NEWS• 13 Peter Agre honored for research in kidney disease By Lynn Mena Last November, Peter Agre '70, M.D., was presented the 1999 Homer W. Smith Award, which is given annually by the American Society of Nephrology (ASN ) and the American Heart Association to a medical researcher judged to have made a major advance in understanding kidney disease. The award specifically recognizes Agre's discovery and work on aquaporins - a family of molecular membrane water channels. "All of our tissues are comprised of water, it's the most fundamental component of all life forms," explains Agre. "But how does the water move from the cells within our tissues? And why are some tissues, such as the linings of our lungs, so much more permeable than others? It has long been believed that these tissues contain water channels, but no one had ever been able to find proof of their existence." In 1991 , Agre, who is a professor in the biological chemistry department and director of the graduate program in cellular and molecular medicine at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, made the discovery of aquaporin- 1, the first molecular membrane water channel. His finding ultimately revealed an entire family of water channels now called "aquaporins." A N Highlights (the official publication of the ASN) wrote that the discovery "represented a major breakthrough," and has led to a greater understanding of many inherited and acquired water balance disorders (such as kidney disease). "The discovery was a big surprise and tremendous luck," says Agre, who is a blood specialist. " It's not going to be a cure for cancer or anything, but the human ramifications are just unfolding every year the enthusiasm builds." His discovery has resulted in numerous national and international speaking engagements, including stops in Sweden, England, Brazil, New Zealand, Russia and most of the medical universities in the United States. Agre received a B.A. in chemistry from Augsburg in 1970 (a choice perhaps influenced by his father, the late Courtland Agre, who taught chemistry at Augsburg from the 1950s to the ' 70s) . He went on to receive his medical degree from Johns Hopkins University, where he developed an interest in biomedical research. After completing a medical residency at Case Western University and a clinical fellowship at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, he returned to Johns Hopkins for a research fellows hip in the cell biology department. In 1984, he became a fa culty member in the department of medicine at Johns Hopkins. Agre's past honors include national finalist fo r the American Society for Clinical Investigation and the Young Investigator Award for the American Federation of Clinical Resea rch. He was awarded Augsburg's Distinguished Alumnus Award in 1995. He also serves on the editorial boards of the Journal of Clinical Investigation and the Journal of Biological Chemistry.

Augsburg Choir Millennium Gathering ALUMNI PROFILE Traveling the world as a global classroom By Lynn Mena Since graduating from Augsburg in 1991 with a B.A. in both English and philosophy, Andrew Carlson's nomadic path has taken him to more than 20 countries. His global sojourns have included such places as Greece, Israel, Germany, Norway, Hungary, England, Mexico, Syria, France, Egypt and more. problem getting to know the people in the countries he visits. "I try to learn hello, goodbye and thank you. English happe ns to be the de facto international language, so It's often a common bond - though I must admit, in some cases, not speaking a native language probably puts up an invisible wall. "A case of wanderlust, you might say," says Carlson about his inspiration to travel. "I think that having studied English and philosophy and having a liberal arts background lends itself to creating a mind that's curious about things. My earlier travels were mostly about adventure; but lately I've been more interested in observing and studying issues such as ethnicity and religion ." " People in non-Western countries are often very curious - they will grab you or flag you down as you walk down the street," Carlson continues. "They will often invite you for te a or coffee and insist that you tell them where you've b een and where you' re going, if you have a family, what's your job, etc. It's very heartfelt. " Immediately after graduating from Augsburg, Carlson was accepted into the Master of Divinity program at Princeton University. "I didn't go there intending to become a minister or pastor, a lthough I've got a lot of ministers in my family, including my father (the Rev. Myron Carlson ' 60), so I was familiar with that route," says Carlson. " I have an interest in religion, and I wanted to study it further." Carlson received his Master of Divinity degree in 1994, and after moving back to the Twin Cities for three yea rs, he headed to Berkeley, Calif., where he completed a one-year program at Graduate Theological Union in 1998. " I went abroad for the first time in the fall of 1996," says Carlson. " I went to Italy, Morocco, Spain and Tunisia. I came back for a month and then went to India and Nepal." He hasn't been able to stand still since, and as of press time he is either in South Asia o r Eastern Europe. "Anything could happen," says Carlson. "My travel plans are always very vague and fluid. " Although he doesn't know any foreign languages, he has had little Some of Carlson's most memorable moments occurred while he was traveling over the holidays in December 1998 and Janua ry 1999. "I was in Jerusalem leading up to Christmas time, a nd it was a special feeling . I met a lot of good people from a ll over the world. The n I went to Egypt dur ing Ra madan (the Islamic holy month), and it was wonderfu l. The weather was beautiful, people were beautiful. During the day, observant Muslims were fasting, and at sunset they would have this ve ry joyous public celebration - just good people having fun . It was very moving and special." When Carlson is in Minneapolis, he ofte n makes a point of co ming to Augsburg . "Ever since I left, there's been about 4-5 professors that I continue to see over the yea rs," says Carlson. "I even mail them postcards and letters. I think it's nice to know that a professor took a particular interest in you, and that whe n they hear form yo u, they are able to immediate ly tie you back to the pe rson you knew. You can go talk to them and it's like yo u're reestablishing/ building upon something you both know about each other - it's very important to me."

Erlandson was also involved in the 1997 mission, and has been involved with the collaborative effort since 1993. By Lynn Mena "It's been very interesting," says Erlandson about working with his Russian colleagues. ''They are very wa rm, enjoyable peo ple." Instead of noticing cultural differences, Erlandson has mostly noticed similarities. "While we would sit and work on the project together, we would often end up quoting the same literature and refe r to the same books, and it really became evident to me that we all basically speak the same human language and share the same feelings and thought-processes." Many of us have searched the night sky for a sign of the aurora borealis, or northern lights - Mother Nature's celestial light show. Last January, Augsburg alum Bob Erlandson '82 enjoyed a front row seat to the aurora borealis from the outskirts of Fairbanks, Alaska, as part of a collaborative mission between U.S. and Russian scientists to study auroral physics in the earth's ionosphere (the region of the earth's atmosphere where auroras natu rally occur). The international tea m, led by the Applied Physics Labo ratory (APL) of Johns Hopkins University (where Erlandson is a staff scientist), successfully launched the Active Plasma EXperiment (APEX) North Star 1 mission, which is a follow-up to a previous mission in 1997. The goal of APEX is to study auro ral physics by creating an artificial aurora in the ionosphere with a Russian-developed plasma jet device, which creates a burst of energy, simulating an auro ra . "Just as the rocket was about to be launched, a naturally-occurring aurora lit up th e night sky," Erlandson said in an interview for the AP L newsletter."We were able to study both a natural and artificial aurora simultaneously and collect data on both . We couldn 't have asked for a better opportu nity." Class "It's really been a lot of fun," says Erlandson of his research an d work at APL. "There's always something new happening with a project - you always move on to a different aspect of the problem, and look at it in a new way. It's incredibly interesting work and keeps you going. " Erlandson graduated from Augsburg in 1982 with a B.A. in physics. He went on to receive a Ph. D. in physics from the University of Minnesota in 1986. He was a postdoctoral research associate in the space physics department at APL from 1986-90 before being hired as a staff scientist in 1990. He and his wife of 12 years, Susan, live in Columbia, Md., with thei r two sons, Matthew, 9, and Joey, 5. Notes 1940 Wanda (Severson) Benson , Auburn, Wash., and her husband, th e Rev.

For over 20 years, Lise Lunge-Larsen ' 77 has enchanted children and adults alike in Minnesota w ith tales of these trolls, and recently published a collection, The Troll with No Heart in His Body. As a child in Norway, Lunge-La rsen loved troll sto ri es, and delighted in finding evidence of trolls in nature - dead trolls that had become gnarled, overturned tree roots. She believes that children need stories in their lives, and great folktales teach values, reveal truths and provid e for the nouris hment of the soul. How she came to be known as the "Troll Lady" is a tale in itself that began at Augsburg . Through a business friendship between Lunge-Larsen's father, an antique book d ealer in Oslo, and the husband of fo rm er Augsburg professo r and dean Pat Parker, Lunge-Larsen had opportunities to visit Minneapolis. On one trip, she stayed with Parker's daughter, Jackie (Parker) Cherryhomes '78, then a stud ent at Augsburg. The ex pensive drea m of attending college at Augsburg beca me reality for LungeLarsen w hen she applied for and was awarded a Crown Prince Harald Scholarship for one yea r. In o rder to continue at Augsburg, Lunge-La rse n had to wo rk and found a job in th e libra ry, working in the children's li terature collection. "The very first time I told a story was in Pat Parker's children's litera ture class," Lunge- Larsen recoun ted . She d iscovered a love fo r storytelling, especially drawing on the troll stories and fo lkta les from her childhood. With Parker's encouragement, she visited schools and libraries reading and telling stories, and her vocation began to take shape. Births Michelle M. (O'Malley) '84 and Todd ).

In I 924 he graduated as the valedictorian of Augsburg Acad emy, and then summa cum laude SPRING 2000 Lunge-Larsen went on to a graduate degree in li ngu istics at the University of Minnesota, and wrote her thesis on using storytelling to teach Eng lish to foreign students. When her father died, she returned to No rway for a yea r, and studied folklore at the University of Oslo. After limiting her storytelling to biblical stories in Sunday School for a whi le, an "aha realization" brought her back to the trolls and their val ue fo r children. In the book's introduction, she explains that because trolls re present everything negative or bad, "battling trolls brings out the very best in those who dare confron t them.. . To do battle with a tro ll is to learn to draw on the best of ou r humanity.• "These sto ri es offer a wond erful escape from real ity, w here the wo rld acts th e way children think it should act. " she says. To criticism of folktales as being violent, Lunge-Larsen counters, " I've lea rn ed ove r the years that kids will imag ine a story only as violent as they can handl e," she says. "It's not like TV, where violent imag es are provided, and they can't be altered ." Lunge-Larsen was long encouraged to wri te down her stories, but couldn 't visualize her trolls un til she saw the work of illustrator Betsy Bowen. Her bold, strong wood cuts "look old and powerful, and make a good link with nature. ' 1 Bowen was intrigued and agreed to collaborate on the stories. The Troll with No Heart in His Body was published by Houghton Mifflin Company in 1999 and has been no minated fo r a Minnesota Book Award.

In commenting on the appointment, President William Frame mentioned that the searchcommittee members noted "a community-wide regardfor the depth and clarity of [Kimball's]understanding of the advantages of private, churchrelated higher education in an urban context, and for his ability to grasp the implications of these for the management of both student and faculty life.• Since coming to Augsburg in 1991, Kimball has tried to balance a commitment to teaching with participation in various areas of student life. 1\vice he has been selected by Augsburg graduating seniors as the honored faculty person in the soda! sciences division.

"But I will miss the students- I reallyenjoyedworking with students and their families,"says Palmer. RICHARD C. NELSON JOHN E. BENSON '55 John Benson, profeswr of religion, returned to his alma mater in 1963to begin his 37-year teaching career. "Amongthe words one might use to describe the work and activity of John are comprehensive,expansive,methodical, and thorough,"saysPhilip Quanbeck Sr. '50, profeswr emeritus of religion."It has been a privilegeto know and to work with John and I am sure he has left his academic imprint on a variety of students." Along with some part-time teaching, Benson plans to spend most of his time working on severalwriting projects. He says,looking back over the past 37 years, "Teachinghere at Augsburg has beenfor me very much a 'family' type of experience.In large part this is probably due to its cultural and religious heritage, but it has alsobeen due to those particular individuals who have investedtheir lives in this place." DEIDRE MIDDLETON '88 Deidre Middleton, academic adviser, began in I 988 as enrollment coordinator for WeekendCollege,moved to associate program coordinator and then academic advisor for weekend students. In 1995she began advising both day and weekend students. "The things I will remember the most about Deidre is that she would alwaysdo the little extra things to make life a little more pleasant,"says Benjamin Kent, director of academic advising."For example, she alwayshad a full candy jar, she took the time to see how you were doing, and she let you know what was going on in her life." Middleton's plans include writing, volunteer work, and perhaps starting a cottage industry, but "right now I am pretty much caught up in trying to develop my backyard into a myriad of flower beds and walking paths,"she says. "Augsburg has beena significant part of my life since the '70s; many members of my familyhave gone to school here, and I hope someday my grandchildrenwill attend."

As two Augsburg professors are discovering, quite a bit. Christopher W. Kimball, academic dean and associate professor in the history department , has teamed with Kristin Anderson, art department chair, on a research project that will draw out these connections. They are well on their way to breaking new ground on a very old pastime. "Last fall we received a grant from the Minnesota Historical Society to write an article," said Anderson. "In it we plan to use Nicollet Park in Minneapolis and Lexington Park in St. Paul as lenses through which to view the construction of urban identities in the Twin Cities. We'll describe the ways ballparks attempted to blur class lines and mediate class conflict while promoting the identity of each city." Nicollet Park, located at Nicollet Avenue and 31st Street, was home to the American Association Minneapolis Millers from 1896 to 1955. The American Association St. Paul Saints played at Lexington Park, on the corner of University and Lexington Avenues, from 1897 to 1903 and 1910 to 1956. Today, both spaces are commercial ly developed. Anderson and Kimball's research goes well beyond the ties these parks have with Augsburg College. "During the 1940s, the College's baseball and football teams played at the parks on occasion:' said Anderson. connecting several fields-sports history, urban history and architectural designthat scholars haven't fully add ressed before," he said.

Lutheran college graduates enjoy an education in which they were more involved in campus life through student activities, in which they found opportunity for leadership roles, and in which they were more likely to develop friendships for life. Graduates of Lutheran colleges, when compared to graduates of flagship public universities, reported the following: Specifically, Lutheran college graduates are more likely to: • they expressedgreater satisfaction with the overoll quality of their education and ~t better prepared for graduate school and their firstjobs; • they repomd similar levels of advan~ education and income; and • they wa-esignificantly more lilcdy to complete their degttt in four years.

The responses show that AUGSBURGNOW • graduate in four years; • be committed to social values and social justice; and • be actively invoi-1 in their churches and communities. The report, "Reclaiming Lutheran Students," al.socompiles responses of parents of Lutheran 9th- and 10th-grade students, and Lutheran "thought leaders," people working in the Lutheran Church. The report found that Lutheran parmts expect the kinds of benefits and outcomes documented by Lutheran college alumni, but believe that public institutions are equally capable of producing them, and place higher value on the reputation and facilities offered by public schools. Lutheran parents understand the cost of attending Lutheran colleges, but underestimate the extent of financial aid available. The parents are generally not familiar with individual Lutheran higher education institutions. Most people working in the Lutheran Church do not believe that Lutheran colleges prepare their students any differently than public institutions. They, too, do not understand the financial support available to students at Lutheran colleges. Only five percent of all Lutheran high school graduates attend a Lutheran college or university. With the results of this research, LECNA hopes to inaease that number. They have created a special Web page to present the research findings and help parmts make choices about colleges with their tecnagen. VISit <www.collegevalue.com> .

Included in the marketing major, and rather unique in the field,is an aspect of training that Clair Strommen recommends with great conviction from his experiencein the insurance field-that ofleaming interpersonal skills. Interpersonal skillsare needed whether a person is a 'doctor, lawyer,men:hant, or chief, believesStrommen. "The people who have reallysucceededare the ones who have the technicalskill,but then they also know how to deal with people:• saysStrommen. "To the best of my knowledge,there's not one school that deals with people knowledge, i.e. developingpeople relationships." The course that includes the Wilson training, BuildingInterpersonalWorking Relationships, is requiredfor all marketing majors, and is open to other students as an elective. "There isn't a fieldat Aug.iburgthat wouldn't benefit [from the Wilson Learning training], whether it be coaching or teaching,"saysStrommen. In I 994, Clair Strommen '46 retired from Lutheran Brotherhood as chair of its board of directors.He had servedthe fraternalorganization since I980 as president and CEO, andboard chair since 1987. In fact, his ties to the company date back to 1956, when he first joined LB as a field agent, before establishinghis own insurance agency. The Strommen FamilyBusiness Endowment enables Augsburgto establish a major in marketing for both day and weekendstudents, beginning in the fall To date, students have only been able to study marketing as a concentration within the businesscurriculum. Augsburgbecomes one of three private collegesin Minnesota to offer a marketing major. 2000 Goal: $20 milhm,J,,0.... 2000 ,Ii is in keepingwith Aug.iburg'svision for By BetseyNorgard Upon his retirement, and in honor of his long and remarkable service, the Lutheran Brotherhood board designateda gift of $250,000 in his name. Strommen and his wife,Gladys(Boxrud) '46, and family, decided to giveit to AugsburgCollege, This sum has been matched with the intent to support businesseducation and fullyendow a chair in the future. REACHINOTHE GOAL AUGSBURG Thirty years ago, Strommen's insurance agency,Strommen and Associates,was invited by the Wilson Learning Corporation to participate in the same kind of sales training Wdson provided for major national corporations. The effecton Strommen's company,in his view,was remarkable. "It literallychanged the business that we were in, and it changed our corporation dramatically,"he says. He subsequently introduced the same training to Lutheran Brotherhood agents,with the same results. Instead of focusingsolelyon closingthe sale of a product, the Wilson program trains salespeopleto focus on understanding and meeting the needs and objectivesof their customers. "Sellingis not pitching a product; sellingis helping people solve their problems. The most powerful salespeople are the people who spend time helping you find out your objectivesand sharing possiblesolutions," comments Strommen. This approach lits well within an Aul!liburgeducation."Given the strong economy and the need for employeeswho understand what marketing is about, we see this major as the perfect opportunity to provide our students with an education that will help them to succeedin their careers.Such an education blends both the liberalarts and professionalstudies, and it Clair Strommen is a Distinguished Alumnus, a former regent,anda member of the AthleticHall of Fame. He has receivedhonorary doctoral degreesfrom Wittenberg Universityand St Olaf College.In 1982 he was honored by the insurance industry with the G. Bennet SerrillAward,the highest given to a member of that profession in Minnesota In I 992 he receivedthe Wittenberg Award from the Luther Institute for outstanding serviceto church and society. GladysStrommen has servedtwo terms on the Board of Regents.In 1982 she was a co-founder of the AugsburgAssociatesand remains an activemember.

"Augsburg instilledIn me that every day of my life I am in a Janice Aline ' 88 learningmode," she said. Aune's 30-year career at U S WEST exeplifiesthis attitude. From an entry level posiUonin 1970 Aune has moved through various areas of the company. Recentlyshe was named president of U S WESTlnterprise Networking, the fastest-growing, high-tech side of the business. In Aune's new position, learning is constant. "One of my responsibilities is to oversee the innovation, development and implementation of new products and sevicesinvolving data networking," she said. Yet her degree was nontechnical. How did she make that leap? "My coursework in business management trained me to look at business cases from a financial perspective," Aune explained. • 1also learned to read earnings and analyst reports.• Allof which comes to bear when considering a product's feasibility in a highly competitive market and how it will impact the business. Evenas a student in Augsburg's Weekend College, Aune found ways to connect what she was learning with her work. She started at U S WESTto earn money for college so she could go back to school. Along the way, Aune realizedshe wanted to do both-<:ontinue working and earn her degree. "I liked what I was doing, but I realized that without a college degree, I was at a disadvantage for formal opportunities within the company" she said. "I knew my education was going to be pivotal." And it was. Aune worked long hours at U S WESTand took classesin the Weekend College. •1 was really happy at Augsburg,• she said, despite the often grueling balancing act of working and being a student. "Almost everything I learned I was able to bring back to the work environment.• Aune, with a general business background, has demonstrated tremendous success in a cutting-edge field because of her skillsin both areas. Much of her technical training she's learned on the job. "But to be a leader, you need to have operations management skillsand people skills,• she said, both of which she acquired from her business management courses. While the industry's emphasis is on innovative products and services,Aune sees the individualas its most valued resource. "Currently there aren't enough people who have technical training," she said. For anyone choosing a technical area of focus, she offers the same advice that has sustained her own career. "Balanceyour technical training with business management skillsif you want to contribute at a leadership level." LenoreFranzenil a freelancewriter who livesIn St. Paul. Sviggum brothers decide to hang up their whistle By Donny Henn • PostBulletin Thefollowi11g is excerpted from an artide that appearedMarch16 in tirePost Bulletin,Rochester,Minn., and is reprintedwith permission. For the last couple of decades high school basketball coaches in southeast Minnesota had an understandin g: if any combination of the three Sviggurn brothers was officiating their game, they'd better play it clean. Jim and Dick worked their last game together in the Section One, Class AA championship between Rochester Lourdes and Wmona Cotter last Thursday at Mayo Civic Center Arena. Steve, who is better known as House Speaker of the Minnesota state legislature, has been cutting back on his officiating for the last couple of years. The Kenyon natives have been calling games together as an independent crew, unaffiliated with any officials association, since they were in their mid-20s. Dick, who entered the occupation first, is 46. Steve is 47. The three brothers went to nearby college, Dick and Jim to Augsburg, and Steve to St. Olaf, all coming home with math degrees in education . While Steve and Jim each spent more than a half-dozen years in teaching and in junior high coaching, Dick returned din,ctly to the family farm. 4S-50 games each winter, which kept them busy four to five nights each week. "We all love high school basketball, and this was a way to stay close to it," Dick said. The Sviggum brothers all decided to retire at once, largdy for family considerations. Now the Sviggum brothers are farming partners, working 1,100 acres and raising about 70 beef cattle from their three separate farmsteads. Jimand his wife,Sandy have two ITWASAJOB At the height of their officiating careers, before marriage and children, the Sviggurn broth ers worked as many as children, Peder, 6, and Siri, 4. Dick and his wife, Ann, have a son, Connor, who just turned 3. Dick said that he and his brothers will probably still get certified in the years ahead, to fill in in an emergency when a blizzard or something else might keep other crews away from a game. BROTHERS AND PARTNERS As siblings go, you don't get much closer than the Sviggum brothers. The oldest of Peder and &wrly's five children-the boys have two younger sisters, Beth in Oakland, Calif.,and Melissain Cannon Falb-Steve, Jim, and Dick all played football, basketball, and baseball together at Kenyon High School at the tail end of the I 960s and the beginningof the 70s.

Actually, Warren combines the two as a Red Cross mental health volunteer. ll'· ~,' •1 think I'm just one coune and one disaster away from being promoted to coordinator for the disaster mental health team," he said with some eagerness. Robert (Erickson) Warm, ' 46 Thisis not to say that he revelsIn d"ISilSten ; quite the contrary,he's eagerto help others and put his counselingand ministerialskillsto work. He's helped those strickenby a hunicane in Mississippi, floodsIn NorthDakota, and tornadoes in Ohio.Warrenalso workswith a localstress team on an on-callbasis. In his work and life, Warren strivesto fulfillSt. Francisof Assisi's admonition: •Preach Christ all the time, and only as a last resort use words.• He admits, however, that it's a challenge for such a wordy person. Warren'sjourney from divinityto disasters began at Augsburg and continued at Augustana Seminary (Ill .). He served several parishes around Moose Lake, Minn., then became missiondeveloper and first pastor of All Saints Lutheran in Glen Lake,Minn. He earned his master's degree In counseling psychologyat AttredAdler Institute; worked at a sliding-feescale cllnlc;proposed a counseling center and became a counseling minister at St. Andrew's Lutheran Church in Eden Prairie. Alter retiring from all that, he joined the Red Cross. In recounting his Augsburg days, Warren recallsthese words from a plaque In Old Main: •1 am a part of everything that I experience.• "Those words kind of confirmed my feeling that I wanted to be a pastor," he said. "But more than that, they really helped me on my spiritual journey, moving from being a biblical literalist to learning to question and go on to a greater truth. That's been very important to me.• Augsburg's urban campus was also an important Influence, causing him to realize that •we are here to serve people, not to be off in an ivory tower someplace. We're here to make a difference in the wor1d.• Warren and his wife, Mary,a registered nune, have worked to make positive differencesIn many ways. They were long-term volunteen at a local teen clinic, at a food shett and with Mealson-Wheels. Through St. Andrew'sthey initiated clothing donation drives, have worked with a youth service team In Appalachia and last year served on a mission service team in Jamaica. Warren hasn't always been successfulIn making a difference. He strongly regrets not pressing his church council to support the Southern Poverty Law Center during the CivilRights Movement. "Martin Luther King,Jr.'s death shocked me into realizingthat I'd been a real sissyin facing controveny in what I believed. He got killed,and I wouldn't even take a little chance about getting into trouble [with the council). I preached a sermon about this the next week, and promised the congregation that I wouldn't ever do that again. That was the beginning of getting into a lot of trouble, and It was worth It.• Though he doesn't get into much trouble anymore, he still gets into the thick of things. Alter all, where disaster goes, Bob Warren and St. Francis's words follow. SusieGi/hoi is a former staff member in the PublicRelationsand Communk ation Officeand Is Bob Wam,n~ step-daughter.

They wiil be joined by across the U.S. an additional 60 faculty and staff members. This national gathering, Lutheran Summer Music (LSM), will be hosted for the first time by Augsburg College. LSM is a four-week summer camp for student musicians in grades 8-12. Founded by a group of visionary Lutheran educators and musicians in 1982, LSM has been hosted by seven Lutheran colleges or universities. It is a program committed to excellence in music. "LSM encourages youth of high school age to develop their God-given talents. The goal of LSM is to extend the Christian tradition of fine musical performance in worship," explained the Rev Dr. Victor E. Gebauer, LSM executive director. Even though this is the first time LSM has been to Augsburg, the program has an Augsburg connection in Melissa Olson, director of admissions and financial aid. Olson, a 1989 Augsburg graduate with a degree in English and communication, began at LSM in 1996 alter working for Augsburg Fortress Publishing and serving in Switzerland and Ethiopia with the Olson credits her career choices and service to the church to Augsburg. "Augsburg literally opened the world to me," she said. "It Melissa Olson '89 exposed me to ideas and an environment I never knew existed. I have enormous respect for small, Lutheran liberal arts colleges." ln talking with LSM students, Olson is quick to point out Augsburg's advantagesthe best of both worlds, offering a tight- knit community within aLarge metropolitan area. This Ìs echoed by Ruth Hook'03, a current Augsburg student and LSM alum from 1996-99, who described Augsburg as a hometown in a big citli This is the first time LSM will be ln a major metropolitan area, and ú will benefit from the Twin Cities' extraordinary culture for the fine arts. Such an atmosphere is the perfect setting for the more than 50 concerts and recitals that LSM will produce during iLs lour-week duration. It is this aspect of the summer camp that most excites Augsburg music professor and former LSM faculty member (198294) Merilee Klemp. "LSM will bring a vibrant, comprehensive, musical community during ¡þs 5¡mrn¿¡-not just to Augsburg, but to the whole West Bank community," Klemp said. However, the most important part of LSM is not the musical knowledge, Iocal culture, or outstanding facult¡ but the close spiritual community that LSM and Augsburg will foster. The daily schedule includes morning and evening prayer; it is this characteristic that most defines LSM and is what Hook and many other LSM alumni most remember.
