(Photo by Keith Rickabaugh) “Godspell” is latest hit for Ailene Cole, recent winner of highest SAM award Godspell, a musical based on the gospel of Matthew and written by John Michael Tebelak and Stephen Schwartz, was Augsburg College‘s fall theater production. Director Ailene Cole, professor of speech, communications and theater at Augsburg. worked with 1980 graduate, Becky Aune, musical director, Karla Kaye Larson. choreographer and Gary Parker. technical director. Ailene Cole has been presented the Speech Association of Minnesota‘s (SAM) highest award, “Outstanding Individual in the Field of Speech Communication." Other recipients this year are Dave Moore of WCCO and Delmar Hanson of Moorhead State University. The awards were presented at the annual SAM banquet on September 24. Cole, professor of speech, communications and theater at Augsburg since 1956, has a master‘s degree in theater with an emphasis in interpretative reading and a doctorate in theater. Her more than a quarter century at Augsburg College was celebrated last summer. While parables and stories are excerpted directly from Matthew, the enactment of these parables is one step removed. Members of the cast are dressed in clownish costumes playing the parts of gospel characters. The main character, Jesus. played by Dave Russell, (St. Paul), narrates the parables and stories, while members of the cast use improvisa- tion and simultaneously perform. Cast members are Jean Burkholder, Sioux Falls SD; Brian Hoffman, Center City MN; Michael Holmquist, Braham MN; Rita Humola, Golden Valley MN; Jim Kindwall, Spencer IA; Kevin Kortan, Brooklyn Park MN; Belinda Larson, Annandale MN; Jenny Nordstrom, Bismarck ND; Janet Paone, New Brighton MN; Deb Pearson.

The play was directed by Aliene Cole.

During office hours the door is always open and there is no secretary to weed out unwanted guests, The room is filled with the noise of busy senators asking questions, reporting accomplishments or solving problems; administrative and faculty members giving advice; and a ringing telephone which most people would be tempted to take off the hook. Risvold describes the Augsburg Student Senate as “one big happy family and smiles to greet each member as they walk through her door. Koenig not only greets with a,smile but often adds a big hug. Mark Koenig, president of the Student Society. is from Motley. MN and is pursu- ing an accounting/finance major. He is the representative for the Student Society at college events and on commissions and boards, particularly those dealing with faculty and administration. Koenig said the most enjoyable aspect of his job is meeting the new people. “It is the best thing that has ever happpened to me.“ Kordi Risvold, vice president of the Student Society. is a communications major from Minneapolis. She is the chairperson of Student Senate meetings and performs presidential duties in Koenig’s absence. Describing her personal qualities, Risvold said, “I have a vast amount of drive and confidence and the ability to motivate people." The Koenig-Risvold team initiated a monthly newsletter this year called Outreach to inform students of decisions and progress in Student Government, to acquaint students with elected officials, and to provide an agenda of Student Government events, The editor, Nansi Pellinin, is a sophomore from Hutchinson, MN. The issues that Student Senate chose to address this year will focus on areas of student services, academics, policies and college prosperity. The Student Services Committee plans to investigate alternative party locations, assess security improvements, inform students how tuition dollars are spent, distribute housing rules and regulations, solve parking problems and make board plans transferable for Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities students. Academics Committee will be planning, testing. implementing and publishing course evaluations for student use. Risvold sees this project as a major accomplishment but is worried there will not be enough money to pay for it. This committee will also promote “Advisor Days.“ Policy Committee will be revising the Student Bill of Rights and evaluating the revised guidelines and regulations for group use of alcoholic beverages. College Prosperity Committee will take an active role in promoting ways to increase enrollment. Risvold said the 1982 Student Senate is “working in an active way for the betterment of the college.” — Kris Alexander Public Relations Assistant Minneapolis, Minnesota Risvold Koenig Executive Branch -President.

Show moreWise Augsburg is the only fair-year private college in the state which approaches ,' ‘ 1"i-y for wL ‘ L ir bound students. according to Jerry Bjelde. vice president of development at Augsburg. He added that Augsburg is the only college institution. either public or private, in the Twin Cities area which is gaining thalstatus. “Even though the percentage of handicapped students at Augsburg is approximately one percent of the entire enrollment. there are more handicapped students enrolled here than at other private four-year colleges in the Twin Cities area." said Bjelde. As part of the college's mission statement in the spring of 1977. Augsburg's Board of Regents included a specific purpose of providing higher education for handicapped persons. Bjelde said. He added that once this decision was made. a major campaign, (Making A Way). funded by ALC congregations in Southeastern Minnesota, raised 8370.000 for barrier removal at Augsburg. Bjelde said that the next step in improving the accessibility was the acquisition of an intact skyway from. Fairview Hospital. “The 5424.000 skyway was purchased for $1. Fairview made it possible for Augsburg to provide another link in making the campus accessible." said Bjelde. Bjelde said that grants totaling $350,000 will be required to complete installation of the skyway between the Music Building and Memorial Hall. and to accomplish the following; installing a two-stop elevator in the Psychology Building. installing a four- (fiUGSBURG umENOW Accessibility — from construction, improved attitudes, programs stop elevator and tower in Memorial Hall. ramping the two levels of the Psychology " "" v constructing an outside ramp from the Psychology Building to 712 Street. and constructing an inside walkway from the Psychology Building to the Music Building. In the future. Augsburg plans to restructure the interior of Memorial Hall. said Bjelde. This will be one more step to further Augsburg's efforts to create a barrier-free campus. Attitudes and Programs Work continues not only on improving physical accessibility for disabled students at Augsburg. but also on improving attitudinal and programmatic barriers. “Augsburg has done more to assure programmatic accessibility than any other ACl‘C school." said Kathy Lancette. CSHS (Cooperative Services for Handicapped Students) coordinator. Augsburg's CSHS program was developed out of CENTS (Center for Education for Non-Traditional Students). CSHS is a mutual program for Augsburg and CENTS and considered to be a hands- on program. CENTS is a private. non-profit organization located at Augsburg since 1976. Wayne Moldenhauer. executive director of CENTS. explained the program's three main functions: t) It prepares non-traditional students and post-secondary schools for each other; 2) It reaches out to answer needs of special students; and 3) It acts as a service broker between students and institutions, “Even though CENTS is not a part of Augsburg. it helped Augsburg develop a Host parents act as foster family for Augsburg international students _ AA private college is like a family where r u r _. . . are made within a supportive. nurturing environment. Augsburg College fosters this atmosphere. For international students. whose families are far away. the college provides a host family program. Mimi Johnson. international student adviser and director of the center for global education and action. rekindled the program this fall. She has been instrumen- tal in having this year's hosts be Augsburg faculty and staff. After a host volunteers and is assigned a student or students. they are responsible for initiating contact. Most students live on campus and see their hosts on a visiting basis. Three students live with their hosts this year. “The primary responsibility of a host is to determine the amount of contact a student needs. Some students are more independent. while others need more direction. 1 don't want to interfere if my students want more independence." said Marie McNeff. associate professor of education. The McNeffs sponsored Laura Lam. from Vietnam. and Eva Moller, from Denmark. According to McNeff. most hosts see their role as being "someone students can turn to if problems arise. " Grace Sulerud. associate professor of library science. is a host parent for Florence Hu. from Hong Kong. and Hue Pham. from Vietnam. “When Florence was having problems straightening out her transcripts with the registrar. i made the necessary calls to get the problem solved." said Sulerud. Hosts can also provide an opportunity for students to get off campus. The Gene Skibbe family takes their students. Joyce Page] and Monika Handl. both from Sweden. to concerts and plays and to their cabin in northern Minnesota. Skibbe is a professor of religion. Stephen Gabrielsen. associate profesor of music. hosts Sam Eshete. from Ethiopia and Carlos Vasquel. from Colombia. He thinks one role is "providing inexpensive housing for foreign students.“ Gabrielsen echoed a concern of other host families for the need for written guidelines or ideas on the program. Although the Gabrielsens have had Sam and Carlos down for dinner several times. he says. “We are a busy family and they are busy modems. We don‘t know if they would like mecootactwithusornot.“ Students also comment on the need for “‘ " Monika Hand] says of her relationship with Gene Skibbe. “I wish I saw him more often. It is just as much our fault as anyone‘s. He has always said if we would like to come over. just call." Florence Hu says. “I am very glad to know Grace (Sulerud). I can talk to her about everything. But she is so busy. that I feel i shouldn‘t bother her. though it is still important for a foreign student to have a host family." The international students are in resounding agreement about the impact the host family has for their families at home. “My family is very glad that l have someone to turn to if I need something." said Florence Hu. The pairing of Myles Stenshoel. professor of political science. and Alice Duus. from Norway. is close to the ideal. Their common Norwegian heritage and Alice living in the Stenshoel's home contributes greatly to their closeness. "She is a sheer delight" is the way Stenshoel sums up his feelings. “She fits right into our family. She sings in our church choir. bakes in our kitchen and went with our family to New York over Christmas break." Having an international student in the family has had impact on the Stenshoels. “Alice is like a sister to my daughter. in fact they plan to travel together to California over Easter break." said Stenshoel. Similarities between his and Alice's families border on the remarkable. right down to the china on the table “Her father stopped at our home and had dinner while on a business trip. and we found that his china and our china were almost identical.“ Alice confirms a sense of family: “They are my family while i am here." Alice emphasizes that she is “a family person." "I like to do things with my family ll is also a pan of experiencmg the culture. to be able to live in an American home. The Stenshoels help by letting me be a family member: I bake Swedish cakes for them and do chores." she said The Stenshoel's extensn'e knowledge of Norway also helps Alice to feel at home "Sometimes i think they know more than i do " The Stenshoel's have provnded Alice with a broader knowledge of America “There are things i have done that i never would have been able to on my own. The Cooperative Services for Handicapped Students program (CSHS).“ said Modenhauer. CSHS is a volunteer program designed to meet the needs of Augsburg's disabled students. “The program. developed and administered by disabled and nondisablcd students. works with staff. faculty. and other students to overcome architectural. programmatic. and attitudinal barriers of handicapped students.“ said Lancette. Specific services of CSHS include taping courses. typing. reading tests or assignments. and writing down answers. “CSHS works cooperatively with faculty who will have disabled students in their classes to inform them of special needs before classes begin." said Lancette She added that student volunteers working for CSHS obtain course credit. “Teachers are willing to give special services to handicapped students." said Lancette. “and volunteers get a lot out of seeing how disabled students cope. " Lancette added that Augsburg has done a terrific job with accepting handicapped students. The effort has been put forth by staff. teachers. and students. As a result of work done to develop the CSHS program. Lancette said that other colleges are now coming to her for help in starting similar programs. Kevin Boettcher. a disabled student from Albert Lea MN. said. “People are always willing to help." Boettcher. now a sophomore at Augsburg. said that it was the students who sold him on Augsburg. He investigated several different schools before enrolling at Augsburg. especially Southwest State. which is entirely accessible to handicapped students. "But the problem with Southwest (State) is that it‘s like two different campuses — one for handicapped students and one for traditional students.“ Boettcher said. Augsburg offered an option to Boettcher — he is not just a number. “Handicapped people want to have that option." Boettcher said. "I'm in a minority. but l don‘t feel it." —Shellcy$awyer Kay Malcliow Public Relations interns CampusNews~9 Polish Solidarity A symposium on Polish Solidarity was held in March at Augsburg with inter» nationally recognized speakers participating: Piotr Naimski. cofounder of XOR: Ryszard Knauff. solidarity member and cofounder of NOWA; Jan (‘howanicc Kenan professor at Carleton College.

Yet the need for careful planning becoms clear when people confront the three basic quations involved in giving any important gift: What kind of property should i give — seciu-ities. cash, real estate'L'What method of giving should i employ? How should my giftbeputtouse? Many people are surprised to learn that there are different tax results from giving differ-wt kinds of property. Gifts of highly appreciated securities. for example. may be particularly favorable. If the securities were held for more than one year, the gift will produce a substantial income tax deduction, and avoid capital gains taxes. Real property, life insurance, or mutual funds may also be an excellent property for a tax planned gift to Augsburg College. There are many excellent techniques for giving to Augsburg. You might want to join our many friends who have helped us through bequests (gifts made in their wills). Or you may choose to make a gift with lifetime income reserved for you and your family. Or you may prefer the simplicity of an outright gift. By tailoring the form of your gift to fit your own financial situation and your individual objectives. you will gain maximum tax rewards. provide the greatest security for your family, and experience the richest personal satisfaction. Your gift to Augsburg should be carefully planned to assure you the utmost in personal satisfaction, as well as the best tax and financial rewards. Your gift can be established as a continuing testament to the ideals of your own life. of the life of a special friend or family member. You may want to earmark your gift for a particular purpose or program at Augsburg in which you have a deep interest. We invite you to explore with us the many sides of your own planned giving. and the meaning your personal philanthropy can have for both you and Augsburg College. All you have to do is contact the Development Office at the college. Write or call: Office of Development, (612-330-1171), Augsburg College. 731 2151 Avenue South, Minneapolis MN 55454. Jerry Bjeldc Vice President of Development Wonderland fantasy reflected "Through the Looking Glass" “Through the Looking Glass." a play based on the Lewis Carroll novel, will be presented at Augsburg with perfor» mances April 23. 24. 25. 29. 30. 31 and May 1 and 2 in State 2. 725 23rd Avenue South. Performances begin at 8 pm. with the ex- ception of the Sunday matinee May 2 at 2:30 pm. Director Curt Akerlind will use his own adaptation of the play, with a focus on an adult audience. rather than a more traditional children's audience. Akerlind deacrtbea the play as the story of “a child, Alla, growing up in a world that confuses and‘scares her arid seems illogical."

Government debates to be held on campus Three public interest organizations are joining forces to provide nonpartisan debates for the major candidates for Minnesota‘s Governor and US. Senator. The groups are the League of Women Voters of Minnesota. Common Cause of Minnesota. and the Augsburg College Public Affairs Forum (ACPAF). No one- hour debates are scheduled. one for the gubernatorial candidates and one for the US. Senate candidates with both events held at Augsburg College in October 1982. “The purpose of the debates is to allow the public to make face-to-face comparisons of the candidates. So much political television time is spent on paid campaign advertising. The voters of Minamot- dtserve a forum for judging the candidates objectively." said Harriette War. president of the League of Women Votasof Minnuota. attempts to escape into a fantasy world, The fantasy characters who help Alice cope with the “real world" force her back to it with the promise that “they will be there to support her when she needs them." Akerlind hopes the play will have more of a “message” than earlier adaptations. The production promises to be unique. with the entire theater space. including the audience. as the stage. Sound and movement will be stressed and the play will become “a kaleidoscope of movement." Akerlind will do the choreography. using a combination of jazz and modern dance. Music will be abstract. using mostly vocal and Orff instruments. Cast members who are also members of Augsburg musical organizations will be asked to provide music and ideas. ' ' Akerlind attended Augsburg in 1975-79 when he was in the productions of “Match— maker," “f‘ _" r " " and “A M" Night's Dream.“ He left Augsburg in 1909 for the University of Arizona where he received a bachelor's degree in creative dramatics. He is a freelance director in the Twin Cities and on the staff of the Pillsbury-Waite Arts organization. He is a former member of CLIMB.

Show more8 — Accessibility TGSBURG Cghaos Now V Accessibility comes with work together on the way through About six years ago, at a family picnic, I sat watching my cousin. Due to an accident in which he had broken his neck, he was confined to a wheelchair..,As he maneuvered his way across the rough green lawn of the park, I listened to the constant whine of the motor of his chair. It seemed peculiar that such a contraption, consisting of belts, pulleys, wheels, and electrical circuits, now did the work that his legs once did. His chair was not my sole curiosity. Later that day, I stood at a distance and watched him eat. A swivel spoon was attached to the cuff of his hand. It took a great deal of effort to raise the spoon to his mouth, and his attempts occasionally failed. His arm‘s unsteady movements would swing the spoon and its contents. Eventually his girlfriend took the spoon to feed him. From then on I couldn‘t help but wonder what it would be like to be in a wheelchair, dependent upon four wheels and sometimes a person to take you where your legs once took you. I tried to imagine the difficulty in doing simple things like eating, dressing. and brushing my teeth. If someone would have told me that only three years later I would have to rely on a wheelchair instead of my legs. I would have laughed. That reaction was not unique to me. Most of us assume an attitude of invulnerability. We feel accidents happen to other people. We don‘t realize how quickly a physically and mentally functioning "normal" person can be transformed to a state of dependency. We are unprepared for even the possibility of such an incident taking place. I had my accident at the beginning of the 10th grade and spent nine and one-half .months in a hospital. Doctors know that most persons suffering from trauma accidents experience feelings of denial, depression, anger, bargaining, and finally acceptance of their condition. I never went through those stages, and my doctors became worried. They felt I was holding everything in, and when the time came for me to leave the hospital, the reality of the limitations and dependencies of my life would hit hard. of course, I have faced times of frustration and disgust, but to say I’ve gone through the stages expected by the doctors would be untrue. The feelings I’ve had are those experienced by any human, handicapped or not, who must face limitations. v My relationship with God was strong before my accident. Throughout the experience, I have felt that God has directed me toward places where I will have the most to give. Before the accident, I dreamed of becoming a neurosurgeon. During the long months of hospitalization, however, I learned about the effects of stress upon both the trauma victim and the victim's family. God has led me to a new dream, work within the field of psychological reha bilitation. After high school, I began to search for colleges. Many colleges are adapting their campuses and programs to meet the needs of persons with various types of handicaps. I considered schools which are reputedly perfect for handicapped students. Those schools disappointed me. At one, I felt separated from nonhandicapped students. The setup seemed to divide handicapped and nonhandicapped students. At others, I felt lost in the crowd and reduced to a number because of the school's size. Then there were those where everyone seemed Fort Collins alumnus recognized for work with community children Gerald Benson believes it is a -ommunity responsibility to make life better for our less fortunate citizens. Handicapped children, poor children, children with learning disabilities ~ we must help make their lives more meaningful, and thus make life better for all ofus. “If we have any concern for the quality of human life, we must optimize human development," he explains. “People have a right to the best our society can give them.“ And the best, in Benson‘s world, is represented by his many years of service to Fort Collins‘ children, chiefly with the Foothills/Gateway Rehabilitation Center and Poudre R-l's Headstart program. He was in at the beginning of both, and has stuck with both ever since. He currently serves as president of Foothills/Gateway‘s board of directors. and has sat on the board for 13 years. It was be, along with a few other visionary Larimer County citizens, who conceived the idea of an advanced rehabilitation center back in the middle Sixties. A replacement was needed for the two smaller and much less effective agencies that served handicapped children in Lovcland and Fort Collins. And Benson, as a psychology professor at Colorado State University, knew what the new concept of infant stimulation could accomplish for children who had previously been shuttled off to captive lives in holding institutions. Thirteen years later Foothills/Gateway is a success. Its facilities are stretched to the limit with Larimer County children — children who face better lives because of the early rehabilitative training they’re given. Its adult clients lead useful lives, working for a living and becoming part of the community. And Headstart, which Benson has advised for years, gives many of the school district‘s children an early start on achievement, “I could go on and on in terms of Benson's valuable assistance rendered to Poudre R-l,“ says the district's Percy Schmelzer, “and this always cheerfully. helpfully and with no concern for remuneration. We are a better district because of this help.” Former Mayor Nancy Gray, who appointed Benson to the city‘s task force on the International Year Of the Disabled, says the appointment was a fortunate choice. “He used his extraordinary capacities for energy, imagination, innovation, motivation and above all determination to make our program one of the most effective in the country. “He's one of those folks who‘s never shirked giving his time," testifies Psychology Department head Richard Suinn. "And he‘s always done it with quiet grace and dignity, and very little public acclaim." Well, this might help rectify that. People like Gerald Benson not only make Fort Collins better for the disadvantaged, but for all of us. He's our January citizen of the month.

(Photo by Jane llclmkel to be cold, unfriendly, and moving in their own direction without regard for others. I wanted a school where people were warm, friendly, and truly caring. I wanted a small campus where classes would be easy to get to without exerting a lot of energy pushing my chair, a place where the teacher/student ratio was small enough so that I would not be just a number, but an individual. I didn‘t want sympathy, segregation, or special treatment. I wanted a good education, opportunities offered nonhandicapped students, and the right to be accepted, not as a student in a wheelchair, but as the whole person I am. I decided I should write to the private colleges. Augsburg College, a college of The American Lutheran Church, responded most receptively. The college is old, like most private colleges, but it was and still is Augsburg’s goal to help integrate handicapped students who meet admission requirements and want in. The college is in the midst of a campus renewal project. The goal is to provide access to all buildings on campus, making it possible to move from building to building without going outside. Though the process of installing skyways, elevators, and tunnels is not yet complete, work continues. I am now beginning my sophomore year at Augsburg. My first year had its problems, but it was also rewarding. The students, faculty and administration are Kevin Boettcher, a sophomore from Albert Lea MN, can now get from Mensch! "all. warm, kind, friendly and sincere. Rarely do I find anyone—student, faculty, or administrator—who is unwilling to help another. There seems to be a sort of river of acceptance which flows throughout a Christian school, breaking down the mental barriers which divide people. I guess God really led me here. If he showed me the need for my services in psychological rehabilitation, he also showed me the need for a religious aspect in psychology. I have seen that the pain, sorrow and grief after trauma can break up families, especially when doctors and psychologists are concerned solely with g the body. They forget that the person‘s spirit may also be broken. I left the hospital thinking that these people only needed someone to set an example. Now I know that these newly-disabled people need both medicine and faith to heal the body totally. Students can learn religion, tolerance, and acceptance at our private colleges. That is why it is important that more private colleges should follow Augsburg's example and work to make their campuses accessible. We can then work together to make a better, more accessible. world. -— Kevin Baettcher Augsburg Student EDITOR'S NOTE: This article is re- printed with permission from the publica- tion “The Way Through" published by The American Lutheran Church.

Show moreMach—Apti‘lm Internships offer practical on the job experience for students in the Twin Cities Lack of experience is one 0. several problems students face when making the transition from college to career. That transition. however. is made easier by including an internship as part4 of an academic program. Some students like to try their hands at different things to determine the type of work they're interested in. Other students know what they want to do. but need practical experience to put on a resume. An internship provides an opportunity for “reality testing:" an opportunity to apply classroom learning to real situations. Augsburg‘s metropolitan location is advantageous to an internship program. Pat Parker. associate dean at Augsburg. said that her office is a “clearing house" for internships. Students usually work with their academic adviser in developing an internship program and working out an internship contract. Then Parker has a final "okay." However. students often come to her when they are unsure of what type of internship to do. “Internships are an integrated part of the academic experience, Instead of sitting there learning. students go out into the city and learn." said Parker. Places where students have internships include: WCCO Television. The Minneapolis Institute of Arts. Banks Inc.. the Minnesota Department of Revenue. Lehmanri Education Center. South Senior High School. the Minneapolis Aquatennial Association, the Public Housing Agency of the City of St. Paul and the Minnesota House of Representatives. Here is a sample of some of these internships. accompanied by comments from students: Cindy Blomquist is a senior majoring in communications with an internship in the Center for Student Development. Blomquist would like a career in advertising/graphic arts. Through her internship right on campus. she is gaining practical experience in publicity and promotion. Although Blomquist enjoys her work she would encourage students to go off- campus for internships because. “The opportunities within the city are vast and should be used by Augsburg students to the fullest advantage." Martha Oie is a senior majoring in psychology. She is doing an internship through the psychology department at the University of Minnesota. She is interested in a career in marine biology and animal behavior research. and is gaining the experience necessary for her career through her internship. Oie said that. "Internships are a must for anyone seriously considering work in their major. or anyone wanting hands on experience: internships are a fantastic experience! " Denise Engebretson is a senior majoring in accounting and finance. She is doing an internship at the law firm of Doherty. Rumble & Butler P.A. Engebretson began working at the firm last spring as a secretary. and through increased job responsiblities. she developed her job into an internship. Her career goal is to become a controller of a Fortune 500 Corporation. "I'm learning all the legal aspects of corporations. from securities regulations. and taxation aspects. to such basic things as business writing (lawyers are great with big words!) and making business contracts.“ said Engebretson. Melanie Sather is a senior majoring in history. She is doing an internship with the Minnesota Church Society in the archives department. Sather said. “My internship offers me an opportunity to explore the work of an archivist. So if I like it. I can pursue such a job somewhere else.“ Sather found it difficult finding an internship in history but Carl Cbrislock. professor of history. provided contacts and assistance. "Being a history major. it is difficult to know what opportunities there are outside of SChool. The internship program allows me. as well as others. to try out a job in their field for a career choice after graduation." said Sather. Kariann Dahlen is a junior majoring in communications and minonng in political science. She is doing an internship through the department of speech/communica- tions as a teaching assistant for an inter- personal communications class. “No matter what interats a student has. there is a chance to get specific. direct experience in a real work situation through an internship. It allows a student to grow academically as well as socially outside of the institution.“ said Dahlen. She is interested in governmental communications. specifically persuasive communications as a career. John Gisselquist. a sophomore majoring in political science, is doing an internship with the Minnesota House of Representatives. “This internship allows me to get a first hand look at government work and politics at the state level. Internships let a student try out his new field before he graduates. and receive credit. too." said Gisselquist who is interested in law or government work after he graduates. “I am very glad that I got involved in Augsburg‘s internship program. In two months I have learned more than I ever could in a year of classes. Internships are great!” said Gisselquist. Paul Moberg is a senior majoring in psychology. He is doing an internship at St. John's Chemical Dependency Treatment Center. His career goal is to become a clinical psychologist with specialization in chemical dependency. “St. J ohn's has given me the knowledge and background to be a capable. well- trained psychologist." he said. Moberg added that “Augsburg has allowed me to explore many and all areas of my chaice and has provided me with excellent back- ground and support." Through his internship Moberg is eligible to become a certified chemical dependency counselor in Minnesota and has obtained paid consultant work from St. John's and important professional contacts. Brad Lehto is a senior majoring in political science at Augsburg with an internship working on Attorney General Warren Spannaus’ campaign for governor. Lehto‘s career goal is to become a lawyer or work in some type of government servtce. “I have been interning on the campaign since midSeptember. and am presently at the point where I have learned to observe and study a situation carefully before acting: an excellent learning experience." he said. He sees Augsburg's location as a great advantage. also. "Augsburg is located in the heart of the Twin Cities. and therefore offers a multitude of internships. All it takes to get an internship is initiative." — Karen Casanova Public Relations Intern College costs...Education costs rise; (Continued from page I i Incentive Grants (SSIG). as currently proposed. will be cut dramatically About half of the 12 million students attending collége this year depend on federal and state aid to help pay for their college education. Approximately 90 percent of the students at Augsburg are in this category. Cuts in Federal and state dollars for financial aid to students have been significant and appear to be continuing While specific dollar cuts are not known. Augsburg has decided to increase its own aid to students by 5100.000 in 1982-83. This increase is in addition to the already budgeted increase in aid for 1982-83 and will bring the level of college support for scholarships and grants to more than 51.500.000 In a letter sent to students and parents.

Show more2 — Campus News Special education minor introduced “It's a program that is designed to respond to the idealism and commitment of today's college students while offering them the kind of career flexibility so important in the present job market,” remarked Barry Franklin, assistant professor of education, in describing Augsburg‘s new interdepartmental minor in special education which was approved by the faculty at their February meeting. The education and treatment of handicapped individuals is, according to Franklin, a growing field offering many career possibilities as well as the opportunity to be involved in one of the more important social reform efforts of the present day. “The purpose for having this minor at Augsburg," Franklin said, “is to prepare students for a growing number of entry level positions in the education and treatment of the handicapped and other exceptional individuals." Some positions that Franklin mentioned included child care workers in residential treatment centers for the emotionally disturbed, counselors in day activity centers and group homes for the mentally retarded, teachers in certain pre— school programs for the gifted, and other similar kinds of workers in programs for the visually impaired, physically disabled, or language delayed. The minor also complements majors in education, social work, corrective therapy, and music therapy, and is helpful for those thinking about graduate work in special education, counseling or psychology. The minor includes a core of four required courses that are designed to introduce students to the area of excep- tionality and to provide them with the behavior management skills that are commonly used in the treatment and education of exceptional individuals. In addition, students select two electives to further develop their behavioral management skills or to introduce them to a particular exceptional condition such as physical disabilities, behavior disorders, or learning disabilities to nameafew. An important part of the core require- ments is the seminar and practicum in special education in which students work as an intern in an agency or facility that serves handicapped or other exceptional individuals. This provides students, according to Franklin, the opportunity to apply their behavioral management skills and knowledge of exceptionality in a concrete situation as well as to explore a possible career opportunity. Fall Dean’s List The fall semester Dean's List was announced by Richard Green, dean of the college, with 245 students receiving the academic honor. Students must have a 3.5 or better grade point average for the semester to be named to the Dean‘s List.

Caribbean sailors find winter . sunshine; fulfill credits. dreams“; ;, Most of the 1,500 students at Augsburg during January interim had one thing in common: their pale, unweathered skin matched the white landscape. Not so for 16 Auggies. They gave up winter fun and their bank savings to spend 24 days in the Virgin Islands, learning to sail and soaking up the sun to talk about back home. The weather in the Caribbean was a little different than Minnesota's, but most of the crew were able to adjust to the clear skies, BS—degree temperatures. salt spray. sandy beaches lined with palm trees and the daily regiment of hoisting the main. pulling out the jib and trimming the sails. Women‘s Athletic Director Joyce Pfaff. and husband Doug. along with friend Bill Kuszler, captained three 39-foot Cals for the group. Jeff Skoog and Mike Gould took off four weeks of work (as did Kuszler and D. Pfaff) and took on the roles of first mates as well as instructors during the trip. Pfaff originally came up With the idea for the sailing class two years ago for a summer school class. No one signed up. Being the sailing enthusiast she is, Pfaff didn't accept the zero response as a final answer. Over a year ago she seriously began planning a course abroad — sailing in the British Virgin Islands was her choice because of the ideal setting (calm waters) and a knowledge of the area. To help get the course approved she took faculty out sailing on Lake Superior to show how much there actually is to learn while on deck. The course was formally approved in February 1931. Within a short time after announcing the class to students, a long list of tentatively interested students was formed. Pfaff was surprised that the class was filled entirely by Augsburg students. She and her husband had spent many hours preparing slide presentations for St. Olaf and Macalester colleges. Even without any formal advertising of the class to other colleges in the state. several inquiries were made about the class. The sailing class was certainly unique in Minnesota. Pfaff noted on the trip that she thought the trip was probably unique in the country. It was not uncommon to hear dockside comments from other sailors' “If only college was like this when I attended." or “The only credit I ever got while in school was for working! " But for the 16 students on the trip. work was a must to pay the $2,000 cost. The travelers were: Betsy Bly. Julie Goldstein. .1 ..‘Ik . A'ye'. Minneapolis. ii: Pam Naslund. Jim Haugen. Jane ‘ Rand Henjum, Dana Holmes. Kay; Kennedy. Kevin Knutson. Mary Rock, Scott Seewald. Susanne Sienkiewicz. SII'I Strickland. Otto Westenfield. Cindy Winberg and the author. The group chartered three boats — each valued at around 3140.000 — out (1 West Indies Yacht Charters and started the voyage out of Maya Cove in Tortola. The boats, named Anna-Lee, Discovery. and Janis Denetia all contained everything a person could possibly need for 26 days: Beds. bathrooms ("heads" for all you sailors out here). kitchen. lights. and an ice-box. The crew learned engine upkeep procedures, how to cook in choppy waters, swab the deck. coil ropes. and to always get sea-sick down wind. Perhaps most impressive of all accomplishments was ' the way in which the crew learned to live and respect each other in rather M! quarters for the trip's duration. The primary objective of the course was to learn how to sail. Lectures on knots. sail trimming. and navigation were given almost daily while on board. on docks. on beaches. or in restaurants. Students read a text and had to pass a test in order to complete the course successfully. All passed. It‘s hard to imagine water so clear that one could stand on the bow and look down through 75 deep-blue feet of water and see objects on the sea floor. Sailing in the Virgins is a world of no phones. no newspapers. few people, many steel drums and radio reports of how much snow is not falling on the islands. For recreation after the anchor was dropped and secured, the crew snorkled through the emerald depths, collecting Conch and watching fish. Most of us swam every day. Some to ease the pain of rope blisters from pulling up the anchor rope. Flashlight “Uno” became legendary (flashlights were used to save drainage on the boat batteries and to sneak a peek at other player's cards). Wherever there was a beach. there was usually a beach bar close by. And where there was a beach bar there were Pina-Coladas. rum punches, tanned bodies. red faces, laughter and stories. pens and post cards. — John Nichols Echo Editor Alumni sponsor Command Performance Command Performance. an evening of entertainment provided by Augsburg alumni. will be Saturday.

Hockey team skates to NAIA first place The Augsburg College Hockey team skated to a second consecutive NAIA National Ice Hockey Championship in Superior WI, after beating Bemidji State University in the finals 6-3. The number one seeded Auggies beat the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire in the opening round of the tournament 7—6. Head Coach Ed Saugestad was named NAIA “Coach of the Year" as the Auggies ended the seasnn with an overall record of 28-1-1 and a MIAC record of loo-0 gaining the sixth straight conference crown. Saugestad, a 1959 graduate of Augsburg, has coached the team since 1958 and has established a career record of 339-1674). Saugestad was also named NAIA “Coach of the Year" in 1976 and 1978. Saugestad was assisted in coaching responsibilities this season by Bill Ross and Jim Sierakowski. The Augsburg College hockey team has claimed NAIA National Ice Hockey Titles in 1978. 1981. and 1982, compared to the 1981 fourth place finish. Out of 320 individual wrestlers, Augsburg placed four wrestlers in the top six to earn NAIA All-American status: Steve Gliva and Bob Arvold. both placing fifth; Scott Whirley with a fourth place; and Shea Kennedy with a third place. Pride doesn‘t end on the wrestling mat for the Auggies. It‘s extended into the classroom with a 3.3 grade point average on a 4.0 scale with 11 out of 20 wrestlers making the Dean‘s List (3.5 grade point average or above). Working together for five months out of the year and spending endless hours in training. Augsburg wrestlers understand the meaning of family. The wrestlers support and encourage each other. Training includes running twice a day and a two hour practice. “When you pay the price as a team it isn't so expensive." said head coach Jeff Swenson. Assistant coach Brian Arvold echoes these sentiments. “There is no“I"in thewordteam.” The “H” on the door is best represented by the hustle of senior co—captain Scott Whirley, a 1979 national championship with a second place finish in 1981. “We never let up. There isn‘t a wrestler on this team who quits short of the final whistle," said Whirley. Augsburg has outscored their opponents 609 points to 294 points in the third periods this year (2/82). The desire of the Auggies is found in the goals that are set ranging from making the team to winning a national title. “Many of the teams in our conference don‘t look beyond the conference meet. But nationals is where it‘s at." said Whirley. In preparing for the nationals this year the Auggies posted a 132 dual meet record going undefeated in conference competition and defeating the University of Minnesota—Morris. Mankato State and St. Cloud State. The team was ranked third in the nation. «Melinda Tuma.

Behind the desk is the president of a prestigious downtown law firm. the father of three children. the recipient of many civic awards and chairman of the board of regents of Augsburg College. Clayton I... LeFevere. After 12 years on the board of regents. LeFevere will be stepping down at the end of this year. Since 1970 when he was elected to the board. LeFevere has seen many changes at Augsburg. "Very soon after I started. I began thinking about the Renewal Fund. The physical plant was in need of revitaliza- tion. The effort at that time was to ensure the survival of Augsburg." said LeFevere. The Renewal Fund was initiated in the fall of 1916 to provide capital resources for campus facilities. The Renewal Fund campaign was much more ambitious than expected Everyone doubted if Augsburg could reach its goal of $4.8 million because the college was so far behind. Needless to say. that goal was met and exceeded." said LeFevere. "This success was due mainly to Oscar Anderson who was able to build a strong and lasting relationship with the business community.“ said LeFevere. As a consequence of the Renewal Fund. Augsburg made many physical changes and additions such as the new Music Hall. the Women's Physical Education facility. the restoration of Old Main. some remodel- ing of other campus buildings and accessibility projects (tunnel and elevators) for the handicapped. “My first contact with Augsburg was on a part-time basis, I coached debate and oratory in 1946 to supplement my income while I was in law school at the University of Minnesota. From 1947 to 1951 I taught several sections of speech at Augsburg," said beFevcre. He was a student at St Olaf from 1940 to 1943 where he was active in forensics. Prior to law school. LeFevere was a bombardier in the Air Force in the Southwest Pacific. “My contact with Augsburg resumed in 1910 when l was elected to the board of regents. The college's Articles of incorporation had changed so it was per-misible to have a non~A1£ or non- Lulheran on the said LeFevere. chairman of the board since 1972. “The role of a regent is to have the ultimate corporate responsibility for the well-being of the college. Board members are responsible for preserving the institution's tradition and enhancing the mission." said Lel-‘evere. He said members of the board are . r “‘ for " policy ' providing personal financial support and advising and counseling in the areas in which they excel to advance the cause of thecollege. LeFevere thinks the board is even more committed and involved than in past years. “The board has changed only to the extent to which it enters into tasks. The position is no longer one of just honor and ceremony. Board members are willing to jump into tasks ‘with both feet'.“ said LeFevere. “The members have a wide range of abilities and the extent to which they involve themselves in the well»being of the college is a characteristic that l hope can be preserved. " said LeFevere. In the past 10 to 15 years. the college and the board have been committed to responding to legal responsibilities. The board has worked toward providing accessibility for handicapped and meeting equal opportunity guidelines. "While Augsburg is a leader in this area. much remains to be done to make the college fully accessible Augsburg has the opportunity for service to the handicapped which is in keeping with the spirit of the college." said Lel-‘evere. “Augsburg is ready to ‘hitch up its belt' to get ready for another development campaign The academic facilities are serviceable but not necessarily adequate." said LeFevere. Plans are being developed for phySical plant improvements. A Communication Arts and Worship Center would be built to be used as a theater. worship center and conference center. Development of Memorial Hall. the Library and Science Hall would modernize the learning and administrative atmosphere Because approximately 30 students now housed in Memorial Hall would be displaced. coupled with concern for security. new student housmg is being considered Optimum use of athletic facilities [5 also under review “Augsburg is and will be different from the other ALC colleges because of ihe urban location and large population center Augsburg offers a quality education in a metropolitan setting and numerous opportunities for service for students. faculty and staff." said bet-“even , “s ~ ’ . 'l'he metropolitan connection between Clayton L. LeFevere and Augsburg College is one of more than a skyline view out of Lel-‘evcrc's "In the short run. the competition is very tough. Costs are rising and so is tuition. The board has raised tuition with the greatest reluctance and with no choice. Augsburg doesn't have a large endowment. so it has had to run on a ‘pay as you go' basis. which it has been ‘ ' in doing." said LeFevere. “Augsburg‘s long-range prospects are tremendous, The college may well have 2000 to 2250 students by the year 1990. The opportunities are exciting. the staff and faculty are strong and its body of friends and supporters is growing." said LeFevere. “I'm grateful to Augsburg for allowing me to serve on the board, It's been a privilege to serve with all the people I‘ve worked with. A person only has a liiiiilcd number of opportunities to do [be things one feels are meaningful and worthwhilc This has been such an endeavor. It has been satisfying and enriching in that 1 have taken more than 1 have given." said LeFevere. — Pa!

Number 5 Education costs rise; college faces challenge You‘ve heard about it on radio and tele vision. You've read about it in newspapers and magazines and you may be directly affected. The means of financing a college education are changing. Because of the proposed federal and state cuts in financial aid. Augsburg is tackling student financial concerns in three ways: - lnstituting a smaller tuition increasc than most Minnesota private col- leges; - Apportioning an increased amount of the annual budget for financial aid; and - Focusing on helping families find the financial plan suited to their needs, Nationwide. the price of a college edu- cation - tuition. room and board. supplies. personal expenses and transportation costs - has doubled in the last 10 years This year, college costs nationally have gone up 14 percent. For 1982-83. public institutions in Minnesota will raise tuition by an average of 24.8 percent and Minnesota private institutions by 188 percent on an average. Augsburg's tuition increase will be held to 12.1 percent and room. board. and fees to 102 percent. resulting in an average incrczisc of 11:1 percent. Tuition at Augsburg will be $4.821), an increase of $520 from the current year Room and board will be increased by $200 to $2.277. Inflation is still a strong determinant in all areas. Energy costs will continue to be high.

You look about and realize that you will never all be together again. lmportant. incomparable. irretrievable days are ending. The uncertain future is at hand. Parents. relatives and friends look on with feelings of pride. engaging in nostalgic reflections about earlier times in your lives and theirs. Underclassmen reach out to you. as you come and go. for what may be the last opportunities for expressing their regards and their good wishes. Faculty. having invested a significant part of their lives in you. have joined you now in academic processton. celebrating your achievements. feeling rewarded by your growth. experiencing reactions akin to those of parents bidding sons and daughters farewell For staff. for regents. for everyone. this is an occasion of great moment: a day suitable for reflection and stocktaking; a day filled with hope and promise. ‘leavethings alone!“' A more serious-minded friend advised. “Tell them not to be immobilized by self- pitv and doubt. Sure. these are uncertain times. but we and our families have often faced circumstances that were worse. We made it. So will they." I looked for a possible theme by retracing the name of the college As you know. the college was not named after the city of Augsburg. Germany. but after the Confession of Augsburg. an historic statement of Protestant belief. presented to the Emperor Charles V in that city some 452 years ago. I like it that this college is named after a statement of belief rather than a person or a place. Not just ideas but beliefs have always counted here. whether expressed in the precepts of Dr. Martin Luther or the “dreams” of Dr. Martin Luther King Looking further. however. l found that the city of Augsburg was named in honor of Julius Caesar's grand-nephew. the Roman Emperor Augustus who reigned when the city was founded in about H BC Augustus. in turn. was given his name by “I like it that this college is named after a statement of belief rather than a person or a place. Notjust ideas but beliefs have always counted here. . Realizing its importance. I have wondered at times how I ever had the temerity to accept this responsibility. It was a special honor to be asked. however. and I was enough of 8 Walter Mitty to accept. Whether you knew it or not you chose not to have a learned academic dissertation on some weighty subject and not to have a newsworthy declaration on some important public policy issue. This will be instead. an unsophisticated statement by a layman about this college. this day and this class. I cast about in a number of different ways in an effort to prepare: I asked others Vt hat they thought one should say. in these times. toa graduating class. My wife said. “The class will want you to be funny and short " You may already have some suspicions as to whether or not I'll be funny: and we shall leave you in suspense for yet a little while as to whether these comments will be short. One of my older friends said, “Tell them to do their best to get jobs. earn the Roman Senate. The empire had flourished under his leadership and a name was conferred which appears to have been derived from the Latin word "augeo" meaning “to make greater: to augment." I like it that this college derives its name from a word connoting augmentingoraugmentation. I re-read Professor Chrislock's interesting Centennial history of this college. From Fjord to Freeway. If you haven‘t read it (and you should) it gives an account of what now seem like endless disputations about policy and doctrine. conflicts about institutional mission. uncertainty as to the college's permanent location. scandal. bad fortune and bad timing. (Things haven't changed completely. But maybe they're a little better nowadays.) Dr. Oscar A. Anderson. former Augsburg president. characterized the book as being. in part. a description of the college's “unmitigated struggle to remain alive." It is also a story of indomitable courage. faith. idealism and sacrifice. qualities which have continued to sustain this college to this day. Then, [reflected on things as they were here in 1946 when I first became acquainted with the college. Dr. Bernard Christensen and Gerda Mortensen were here. as were such persons as Martin Quanbeck and PA. Sveegen. Arthur Nash and H.N. Hendrickson — whose service on the faculty had begun in the year 1900. The campus was quite small and most of it was located in the block just west of Murphy Square. The college was then starting to face out and reach out. moving away from the isolation of earlier times. What was the Augsburg spirit then? I found this 1948 statement by President Christensen concerning it: "The true Augsburg spirit comes to expression as the Christian life- pattern is wrought out. Principles are not enough. Words must become flesh ’ ‘ ’ let this spirit ofAugsburg express itself over more completely. to the end that each of us may become a noble exemplar of the new Life. the good Way. the living Truth revealed in Christ. This is the goal ofChristion education." It helped me to realize that the ethos of that day is still present: that what Augsburg was about then - expressing belief. working to augment - is what it is about today. Minneapolis, Minnesota programs can never achieve their rightful place as long as they must be presented in the ancient and decrepit “Stage 2“ building next door. suitable chapel on this campus. The Communications Arts and Worship Center. now under consideration. can meet these needs. Nor is it too much to hope that the agenda for the 80‘s will .include improved library. science and athletic facilities. additional student housing. and an endowment that can provide better faculty rewards. more adequate student aids and greater financial security. In making its future physical improvements Augsburg has an opportunity that will come only once. It can design and locate its future buildings so as to create a feeling of unity and harmony throughout the campus: it can create an atmosphere of unpretentious but genuine beauty. Through the coordinated use of courtyards and entrances. walk- ways. street closings and unified landA scaping it can create the distinct environ- ment of the Very Special Place » which it is. I make these comments to you about my hopes for your alma mater‘s future development because it is your alma mater; because I assume that you will care about it; and because one day its welfare will rest in other hands including yours. . ’Of course. I also make these comments today because. as a departing board member. it is one of the last shots I will . . My hopesforyouralma mater’s future development because it is your alma mater: because I assume thatyou will care about it: and because one day its welfare will rest in other hands including yours." If the college's basic reasons for being have remained the same. the last twenty years or so have represented the period of greatest physical change in Augsburg‘s history. During that period the college has completed Melby Hall. Psychology Building. Music Hall. Ice Arena. Student Center. Urness Hall. Mortensen Tower. the renovation of Old Main. barrier removal and a number of other improvements. During the same period the college has completed the acquisition of most of the properties between 20th and 25th Avenues from Riverside to the Freeway. There is now assurance that the ultimate campus. most of which is still not occupied by permanent college buildings. will be nearly as large as the campus at Augsburg Park in Richfield would have been. \ Much more needs doing. This is a liberal arts college; its drama and theater have. (Incidentally. twelve years of service on the Augsburg Board is by no means a record. Sven oftedal. one of the giants in the history of this college and a person whose'name appears on one of its buildings. was chairman of the board almost continuously from June 1874 until his death in 1911. I envy his endurance but. frankly. I do not envy the length of his service - or the manner in which it came to an end. ) ~ ' After all of this casting about. which did prove to be helpful. I chose to comment on a subject encompassed by the title “Commencement of What?" I know: The word “commencement” as it is ordinarily used in connection with graduating seniors means “taking a degree." For rhetorical convenience I have chosen to use the word in its other meaning as “beginning.” Using the word in that sense. when we ask the question “Commencement of What?

Fewer ALC college grads in seminary The percentage of church-college graduates at seminaries related to The American Lutheran Church tALCl is now half of what it was 20 years ago. The 1962493 percentage figure was 79 percent and for the 19111412 term. the figure was 40 percent. Several factors were noted as relating to this declining number. However. the high cost of obtaining an education in a private coltege or university was indicated as being a key factor. Dr. William H. Weiblen. president of Wartburg Theological Seminary in Dubuque. Iowa. says he has seen “a continuing decline in good preparation for seminary study that most seminarians had when they gained their undergraduate education in church colleges and universitis." “There is no doubt in my mind that people who have our full preparation (of church college and seminary study! have the quality of education very necessary for continuing high~caliber clergy." m sNOW Motions—5 Education careers exemplified in selection of college's 1982 distinguished alumni ltisthattimeoftheyearinwhich Augsbin-g College again recognizes those alumni who exemplify the purpose and mission of the college through their continual strin‘ng for excellence and outstanding service to people.
