My life-changing experience in the Augsburg MAL Program has
provided me with a strong foundation to pursue a leadership role in
both my personal and professional life. In addition to being a strong,
challenging program, it is also geared toward flexibility to accommodate
the adult learner. A program in my opinion that goes unmatched!

MASTER OF ARTS
Attaining the MAL degree was a
transforming experience both
personally and professionally. It
increased my self-confidence, enabled
me to recognize and develop my
strengths, and also provided a
valuable networking opportunity with
fellow students and faculty.

IN LEADERSHIP
INTRODUCTION
The primary mission of the Center for Leadership Studies (CLS) at Augsburg
College is to develop leaders for organizations and the community. The core
program of the center is the Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL). The
program, which was launched in 1987, responds to the leadership
development needs of both 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.
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 careeroriented, 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. Classes meet on alternate Saturdays for four hours.
COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS
Essential to the goals of the MAL program is participation in a community of
learners gathered together 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 some special colloquia and seminars each year
to supplement and complement the course work of the master's program.
A SAMPLE CLASS SCHEDULE IN THE MAL PROGRAM
PERIOD I
Saturday
8:00 a.m . to 12:00 noon
PERIOD II
Saturday
1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Note: Each class taken commits a student to either Period I or Period II;
on average two meetings a month.
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT MODEL-AUGSBURG COLLEGE
The MAL program promotes leadership as a process that
1) inspires cooperation among people who must compete for limited resources, 2) promotes productivity within and
beyond the organization, and 3) 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 a broad range of 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.

There are two ways to complete the MAL degree. In the Thesis/Leadership Application Project (Thesis/ LAP) Option,
students complete a thesis or a major leadership application project and 10.5 credits. In the Non-Thesis Option,
students must complete 11 credits, two papers, but no thesis.
Augsburg uses a course system rather than a credit system in its curriculum. An Augsburg course is equivalent to
four semester credits or six quarter credits. Each course 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, debate, 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.
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 research-based 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 the Leadership Application Project is based on practical
application. Both require similar rigor and preparation. For either alternative, the student must register for ML 592,
593, and 594. Differences between these two options will be explored in ML 514 Research Methods and in ML 593
Leadership Research Seminar I.
For more information regarding the Thesis/LAP option, refer to the Information and Guidelines for the Thesis and
Leadership Application Project booklet.
Students who do not complete their thesis or Leadership Application Project while enrolled in ML 594 Leadership
Research Seminar II are required to pay a continuation fee.
-
NON-THESIS OPTION
An alternative to the thesis is the successful completion of two major papers, as described below. The first of these
papers will be written in conjunction with ML 580. The second paper will be written while enrolled in ML 597 NonThesis Independent Project. The independent research projects approved each year will be presented in an annual
colloquium. Students who do not complete their independent project while enrolled in ML 597 are required to pay a
continuation fee.
For more information regarding the Non-Thesis option, refer

EVALUATION STANDARDS
Evaluation of academic performance in the MAL program will
be based on number grades using a 4.0 point scale and as defined
below.
Courses not offered on the numbered grading system are noted in
the course descriptions in this catalog as being graded on PIN basis.
In order to receive a grade of P, a student must achieve at least a
grade of 2.0. No more than two courses with a grade below 3.0 will
count toward the degree. No more than two courses with a grade of
or below 2.5 can be repeated. Only the credits and grades earned the
second time are counted in the grade point average.
4.0
Achieves highest standards of excellence
3.5
3.0
Achieves above basic course standards
2.5
2.0
1.5
Achieves the minimum passing standard
1.0
Performance below basic course standards
0.5
0.0
Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course)
P
Achieves at or above the 2.0 level (not computed in grade point average)
N
Does not meet minimum course standards (no credit and non-punitive-not computed in grade point average)
W
Grade given when a student withdraws from a course after the deadline without notation on the record
Incomplete grade given when student is unable to complete course requirements for reasons beyond the
student's control. (To receive an incomplete, a student must file a petition with the MAL Program Office
stating reasons for the request, the plan
and date for removing the incomplete
grade, the signature of the instructor, and
any other necessary documentation.)
ATTENDANCE POLICY
Because leadership issues are presented, discussed
and analyzed in the classroom, regular attendance is
highly important and should be considered a
responsibility, not only to one's self, but to one's
classmates and course instructor.
ACADEMIC PROBATION AND
DISMISSAL POLICIES
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 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 a student receives a grade of N or 0.0 in a
course, the student must petition successfully with the
MAL Advisory Committee before being allowed to
continue in the program. A plan for the student to
follow would be outlined at that time. If a second
grade of N or 0.0 is received , the student may be
dismissed from the program by the MAL Advisory
Committee. Students may also be dismissed by the
MAL Advisory Committee for behavior detrimental to
the program, such as a gross violation of college policy
(as published in the Student Guide). Dismissal would
occur only after established procedures were followed.
CREDIT FOR PRIOR EDUCATION
Due to the interdisciplinaiy nature of the courses in the
MAL program, it is unlikely that courses taken
elsewhere may be substituted for a particular course in
the curriculum. Students may petition the MAL program
director for approval of any variation in the curriculum
including the transfer of credit. Transfer credits will be
evaluated on an individual basis.
The only courses that will be considered for transfer
credit are those earned from accredited colleges and
universities, whose course content is comparable to
those in the MAL program. No more than two courses
will be accepted for transfer credit.
CREDIT AND CONTACT HOURS
Each full-credit graduate course in the MAL program is
the equivalent of four semester credits or six quarter
credits. Students meet in class a total of 28 hours and
are responsible for a significant amount of individual
study and preparation.
ENROLLMENT POLICY/ LEAVES OF ABSENCE
Students may take either one or two courses per
trimester. Enrolling in two courses per trimester
enables a student to complete the coursework in the
program within two years. All students are required to
complete all components of the program within five
years. Extensions beyond five years will be considered
on the basis of petition to the MAL Advisory
Committee. Students who leave the program for more
than one trimester must request a leave of absence in
writing from the MAL program. A leave of absence may
be granted for one calendar year. Time spent on an
official leave of absence will not count toward the fiveyear deadline for degree completion.
LAST DAY TO WITHDRAW FROM CLASS
The last date on which students may withdraw from a
class and receive a "W" on their records is published
annually in the MAL Supplement.
STUDENT RIGTHS
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 College
-
Catalog and the Student Guide. Students have a right to experience
education without discrimination.
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974, as
amended, provides certain rights to students regarding their education
records. Each year Augsburg is required to give notice on the various
rights accorded to students pursuant to FERPA. A copy of Augsburg's
policy is published in the Augsburg College Catalog and in the
Studertt Guide distributed to students.
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. 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.
Complete information about Augsburg's procedures with regard to
FERPA are available from the registrar's office.
ACCREDITATION AND AFFILIATIONS
Students who successfully complete Augsburg's leadership program will receive a Master of Arts degree. Augsburg is
accredited by The Higher Leaming Commission, North Central Association* and is a member of the Associated Colleges of
the Twin Cities (ACTC), Lutheran Education Council in North America, and the Minnesota Private College Council.
Augsburg College is registered with the
Minnesota Higher Education Services
Office. Registration is not an endorsement
of the institution. Registration does not
mean that credits earned at the institution
can be transferred to other institutions or
that the quality of the educational
programs would meet the standards of
every student, educational institution or
employer.

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

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. Please 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.

ABOUT AUGSBURG
HISTORY
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.
CAMPUS LOCATION
Augsburg's campus is located in the heart of the Twin Cities,
surrounding Murphy Square, the first of 155 parks in the "City
of Lakes." The University of Minnesota West Bank campus and
one of the city's largest medical complexes-Fairview
University Medical Center-are adjacent to Augsburg, with the
Mississippi River and the Seven Corners theatre district just a
few blocks away.
ACCESSIBILITY
Augsburg College has made a major effort to become one of the
most accessible campuses in the region. Skyways, tunnels, and
elevators provide accessible connections among major
buildings-student housing towers, the Christensen Center,
main academic and administrative halls, the library, and the
music building. In addition, there are programs for students
with learning, physical, and psychiatric disabilities.
CHURCH AFFILIATION
Augsburg is a college of the Evangelical Lutheran Church
in America. It has a diverse community with many strong
religious traditions represented among the students, faculty,
and staff, including Lutheran, Protestant, Roman Catholic,
Jewish, American Indian spirituality and thought, Buddhist,
and Islamic faiths.
NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY
Augsburg College, as affirmed in its mission, does not
discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, national
or ethnic origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status,
status with regard to public assistance, or disability in its
education policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan
programs, athletic and/or school administered programs, except
in those instances where religion is a bona fide occupational
qualification. Augsburg College is committed to providing
reasonable accommodations to its employees and students.
Any questions concerning Augsburg's compliance with federal
or state regulations implementing equal access and opportunity
can be directed to the Office of Human Resources, CB 79,

from the President
I hope you are looking at this catalog
because you've enrolled at Augsburg College.
If so, welcome! All of us hope you find, in the
course of your study, a rising enthusiasm for the
work, a clariifylng definition of the vocation to
which you feel called, and a confident satisfaction
that you have rightly chosen Augsburg as the
community in which you will spend time for the
next several years.
If you're dipping into this volume to
find out about Augsburg College and the
education it offers, welcome to these pages! May
E
they convey the fundamental character of our

mission: to provide an education especially
serviceable in the contemporary world because it has been designed in the midst of and in full
contact with the critical social, economic, religious, and political phenomena of the modern city.
This education, however practical and professional, will be serviceable over the long haul only to
the degree that it respects and pursues certain of what Martin Luther called "the fine liberal
arts," and it will be exciting to the degree it is offered for the sake of improving both its
students and the world itself.

A
t Augsburg
- - College, we believe that
the college
experience
should be a time of
- exploration, of discovery, of new experiences, and new possibilities. We also
believe that a liberal arts education is your
best preparation for living in the fastpaced, changing, and complex world of
today and tomorrow. Upon graduation, you
will be able to demonstrate not only the
mastery of a major field of study, but also
the ability to think critically, solve problems, and communicate effectively.
Selection from over 50 majors
Augsburg offers more than 50 major*
or you can create your own major either
on campus or through the Associated
Colleges of the Twin Cities (ACTC). (See
page 58 for a complete list of majors and
minors.) This five-college consortium
allows day program students to take courses on other campuses without charge while
a full-time student at Augsburg. The ACTC
includes Augsburg College, College of St.
Catherine, Hamline University, Macalester
College, and the University of St. Thomas.
Through the Weekend College
Program, 17 majors are offered.
Emphasis on values, perspectives,
experience, and skills
The heart of an Augsburg education is
the Augsburg curriculum-the College's
general education program, which structures your liberal arts studies through challenging and thought-provoking courses
requiring students to consider important
issues and examine values questions. These
Liberal Arts Perspectives include Western
Heritage, Intercultural Awareness, Human
Identity, the Social World, Christian Faith,
The City Aesthetics, and the Natural World.
At the same time, courses across all disciplines stress the skills that will serve you
for a lifetime-writing, speaking, critical
thinking, and quantitative reasoning, to
name a few.
Thanks to Augsburg's prime location in
the heart of a thriving metropolitan area,
many courses are able to offer rich and varied learning opportunities in real-life situations through academic internships, experiential education, volunteer community service, and cultural enrichment. In a sense,
the resources of the Twin Cities are an
extended campus for Augsburg students.
Students who graduate from Augsburg
are well prepared to make a difference in
the world. They stand as testaments to the
College motto, "Education for Service,"
and to the mission of the College:
"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"
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.

About Augsburg 11
Early Leaders Establish a Direction
The Focus Changed
August Weenaas was Augsburg's first
president (1869-1876).
This attitude began to change after
World War I. In 1911, George Sverdrup,Jr.
became president. He worked to develop
college depaments 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.
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.
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.
Education for Service
Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist"
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 College's mission assumed a double character-ministerial preparation
together with a more general education for
life in society. In 1937, Augsburg elected
Bemhard Christensen, an erudite and
scholarly teacher, to be president (19381962). His involvement in ecumenical and
civic circles made Augsburg a more visible
part of church and city life.
After World War 11, Augsburg leaders
made vigorous efforts to expand and improve
academic offerings. Now the College was a
larger part of the institution than the serninary and received the most attention.
Accreditation for the College
Augsburg added departments essential
to a liberal arts college, offering a modem
college program based on general education requirements and elective majors.
With curriculum change came a long effort
to become accredited.
The College reached accreditation in
1954, although many alumni had entered
graduate schools and teaching positions
long before that time.
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.
12 About Augsburg
A College in the City
President Oscar A. Anderson (19631980) continued Augsburg's emphasis on
involvement with the city. He wanted to
reach out to nontraditional student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for
all people. During his years of leadership
the College became a vital and integral part
of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg
added the Music Hall, Mortensen Hall,
Urness Hall, the Christensen Center, Ice
Arena, and Murphy Place.
Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the founders
who believed:
Dr. Charles S. Anderson led the College
from 1980 to 1997. He guided Augsburg's
commitment to liberal arts education, spiritual growth and freedom, diversity in
enrollment and programs, and a curriculum that draws on the resources of the city
as extensions of campus and classroom.
Some of the accomplishments during his
tenure include instituting two graduate
degree programs, hosting national and
international figures at College-sponsored
forums and events, increasing accessibility,
and the addition of the Foss Center for
Worship, Drama, and Communication; the
Oscar Anderson Residence Hall; and the
James G. Lindell Family Library.
The city-with all its excitement,
challenges, and diversity-is an unequaled
learning laboratory for Augsburg students.
Dr. William V Frame became president
in August 1997. Under his leadership, the
college has sharpened its identity as a college of the city, providing an education,
grounded in vocational calling, that provides students both the theoretical learning
and the practical experience to succeed in
a global, diverse world.
In 1999, a new apament-style student
residence opened. Major renovation of
Sverdrup Hall created space for the
Enrollment Center, h e Women's Resource
Center, and the Honors Program Suite. A
skyway link connects Sverdrup Hall to
Lindell Library.
An Augsburg education should be
preparation for service in community and
church;
Education should have a solid liberal
arts core with a practical dimension in
order to send out productive, creative, and
successful citizens;
Augsburg is a quality liberal arts institution
set in the heart of a great metropolitan center.
There are now almost 18,000 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 social work, leadership,
nursing, physician assistant studies, and
education.
Augsburg also offers graduate and
undergraduate level nursing courses as
well as supporting degree courses through
its Rochester Program based in Rochester,
Minnesota.
WEEKEND COLLEGE
Augsburg's Weekend College program
provides an educational alternative to
adults who desire college experience but
who work or have other commitments
during the week. It is a means by which
men and women may earn a baccalaureate
degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for a career change or pursue a personal interest in one or more
areas of the liberal arts.

About Augsburg 13
Weekend College began in 1982 with
69 students taking courses in three majors.
Eight courses were offered in the first term.
Today with more than 1,000 students
enrolled each term and 17 majors,
Augsburg's Weekend College is the largest
program of this type among Minnesota private colleges. Faculty in Weekend College
are full-time Augsburg professors as well as
adjunct professionals. The Weekend
College student body is involved in student government, and students participate
in academic and extracurricular activities
such as the student newspaper, travel seminar, and student organizations.
Augsburg Weekend College continues
to develop to meet the needs of the adult
and nontraditional student.
The Adult as Learner
Augsburg Weekend College is based on
the assumption that students who enroll in
the program will be mature, self-disciplined and motivated learners who seek a
combination of classroom experience and
individual study. Each course is divided
into periods of concentrated on-campus
study separated by time for independent
study and class preparation.
Alternate Weekends
To accommodate this learning format,
classes generally meet on alternate weekends for three and one-half hours on either
Friday evening, Saturday morning,
Saturday afternoon or Sunday afternoon.
Laboratoly sections or additional class
hours may be scheduled during the week.
Weekend College students may take from
one to four courses each term. Selected
courses are also available on weekday
evenings and are open to both day and
Weekend College students. The academic
year for Weekend College is divided into
three trimesters.
A Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg's
Weekend College 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
Weekend College students to make use of
College facilities such as Lindell Library
and the Christensen Center, and to participate in College activities such as music and
dramatic presentations and athletic events.
Weekend College 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 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 teaching. They
are actively involved in a dynamic faculty
development program that introduces
them to current thought in many fields,
but especially in teaching and learning
techniques and theories.
Augsburg's size and small classes
encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and students.
Faculty act as academic advisers and participate regularly in campus activities.
ROCHESTER PROGRAM
Augsburg has established a branch
campus in Rochester, Minnesota. Classes
in Rochester meet on an evening or weekend schedule, making them accessible to
working adults. There are three trimesters
in each academic year, following the same
schedule as the Weekend College program.
14 About Augsburg
Several complete degree programs are
available through the Rochester campus. In
addition, students may work on a variety
of other majors through a combination of
Rochester-based courses and courses taken
in the day or Weekend College program on
the Minneapolis campus. Students who
enroll in Rochester courses are required to
have an individual e-mail address and have
access to the Intemet to facilitate the use
of technology in the learning and communication process. Further information may

admissions plan. Students are notified of
the admission decision, usually within two
weeks after the application file is complete

ALL TRANSFER STUDENTS
Augsburg College welcomes students
who wish to transfer from other accredited
colleges or universities. College credit is
granted for liberal arts courses satisfactorily
completed at accredited institutions. The
College reserves the right not to grant
credit for courses where it considers the
work unsatisfactory, to grant provisional
credit for work taken at unaccredited institutions, and to require that certain courses
be taken at Augsburg.
Augsburg College limits transfer
coursework from two-year colleges once a
student has reached junior status. Students
may transfer a maximum of 64 semester
credits (96 quarter credits) from two-year
colleges. Once a student reaches junior
status, no additional credits will transfer
from two-year institutions toward the
minimum of 32 credits required for a
baccalaureate degree. These courses can,
however, be used to meet liberal arts and
major requirements.
A cumulative grade point average
(GPA) of 2.5 (on a 4.0 scale) or better is
required on previous college work for
admission to the College.
Acceptance of courses submitted for
transfer is done by the registrar's office
based upon the official student
transcript(s). Acceptance of courses presented for a major or minor also requires
approval of the department. The major or
minor department may require certain
courses or a minimum number of courses
be taken at Augsburg.
Students transferring from the
Minnesota State University and College
System who have completed the Minnesota
Transfer Curriculum, have earned the
Associate of Arts degree from MNSCU, and
have a 2.5 (on a 4.0 scale) cumulative GPA
or higher will be given transfer status as
outlined below.
The following applies only to the
MNSCU A.A. graduate:
1. Admission will be with junior standing
following the Minnesota Transfer
Curriculum. A maximum of 17 Augsburg
equivalent courses (64 semester credits or
96 quarter credits from a community college) will be accepted once junior status is
reached. No additional courses may be
transferred from a community college.
2. All Augsburg general education requirements will be waived except:
The City Perspective
Two courses in Christian Faith (any
two areas)
The language requirement as stated
One course that meets the Quantitative
Reasoning Graduation Skill requirement
-
Undergraduate Admissions 23
One graduation skill writing course in
the major
College algebra or Math Placement
Group 3
One lifetime sport
3. Courses with D grades will not be
accepted as prerequisites or for application
to majors. Some Augsburg majors require
additional prerequisite coursework beyond
the A.A. degree. Students are advised to
consult major departments for major
requirements upon transfer.
Admission to a major, as well as admission to the College, is sometimes necessary.
Please check with the Office of
Undergraduate Admissions and consult the
departmental section of this catalog.
Note: No student who falls below the
standards for automatic admission to the
College will be considered for admission
by the Admissions Committee after August
15 for entry in fall semester or December
15 for entry in spring semester.
FORMER STUDENTS
Students who have interrupted attendance at Augsburg College for one semester or more without requesting a leave of
absence and who wish to return must
apply for re-admission through the registrar's office. Students who have attended
other institution(s) during their absence
from Augsburg must have an official transcript sent from each institution to the
Office of the Registrar. Returning students
do not pay the application fee.
SPECIAL STUDENTS
(NON-DECREE)
In some circumstances, people may be
admitted as special students (non-degree)
and granted the privilege of enrolling in
courses for credit. Students may request a
change in their degree status by submitting
a petition to the registrar's office.
Students regularly enrolled at another
college may take coursework at Augsburg
College as a special student (non-degree).
An application form for special-student
status is available from the Office of
Undergraduate Admissions. To apply for
admission as a special student, submit the
completed admission application and academic transcripts to the Office of
Undergraduate Admissions.
SPECIAL STUDENTS
(SECOND DECREE)

four-year degree at an accredited college
or university may complete a second
degree at Augsburg College. Second degree
requirements include: a minimum of eight
course credits taken at Augsburg, completion of a major, and completion of any
liberal arts requirements not covered by
a previous degree.
Depending on the student's previous
degree, completion of a second major
(non-degree) may also be an option.

Financing higher education could be
the most significant investment a person
or family makes in a lifetime. Proper planning and wise choices are important, not
only in choosing a college, but also in the
methods used to pay for it. Augsburg
College, through its Enrollment Center,
will help students and their families protect access to a quality Augsburg education
in a time of increasing financial challenge.
Financial assistance awarded through
Augsburg may be a combination of
scholarships, grants, loans, and part-time
work opportunities. The College cooperates with federal, state, church, and private
agencies in providing various aid programs. During the 2001-2002 academic
year, more than eight out of ten students at
Augsburg received financial assistance.
The primary responsibility for financing
a college education rests upon the student
and family. Financial aid supplements
student and family resources.
The Free Application for Federal
Student Aid (FAFSA) and the Augsburg
Financial Aid Application help determine
the amount of assistance for which a student is eligible. This analysis takes into
account such family financial factors as
current income, assets, number of dependent family members, other educational
expenses, debts, retirement needs, and special considerations.

Subsidized and Unsubsidized Stafford
Loan funds are obtained directly from a

such programs. Subsidized Stafford Loans
are need-based loans that the federal
government subsidizes by paying the
interest while the student is in school
and during the grace period.
For the Unsubsidized Stafford Loan,
interest begins accruing on the date of disbursement and the borrower is responsible
for all interest. The borrower may choose
to make payments while in school or may
defer payments and allow interest to
accrue and be capitalized (added to the
balance of the loan).
The interest rate for new borrowers
through the Subsidized and Unsubsidized
Stafford Loan is variable and changes
annually on July 1. Interest is capped at
8.25%.

expression in chapel worship where students, faculty, and staff gather each day to
give thanks and hear the Gospel proclaimed by a number of speakers and
musicians. Each Wednesday night students
gather for Holy Communion. On Sundays,
Trinity Lutheran worship services are held
on campus, with many other churches
within walking distance.
Because our campus is comprised of
individuals from many different religious
and cultural backgrounds, our worship life
is characterized by a similar diversity and
richness of tradition. Bible studies, growth
groups, outreach teams and community
outreach opportunities, retreats, peace and
justice forums, concerts, and gatherings are
examples of the wide variety of activities

As a college of the church, we are
concerned about spiritual as well as academic and social growth. Our concern
for spiritual growth is evident in the
opportunities we encourage and provide
for students to explore their own faith.
xperiences in the classroom are an
important part of college life, but learning

Augsburg College created a program
entitled Exploring Our Gifts through the
generous support of the Lilly Endowment.
Established in Spring 2002, the Exploring
Our Gifts program is designed to help students in their college journey to make connections between faith, vocation, and
work. The program will assist students in
this journey by intentionally introducing
vocational themes into the cumculum, cocumcular activities, service-learning experiences, and mentoring relationships at the
college. Exploring Our Gifts also provides
resources to encourage students to explore
Christian ministry. Contact the director of

Introduction
Introduction to Interim
The College follows a 4- 1-4 calendar, with fall and spring
semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a four-week
January Interim. Interim is intended to be a time for both
students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and learning
and to investigate questions and topics in places and ways not
possible during the regular term. The College is changing its
calendar next year to a 4-4 calendar so January Interim 2002
will be the last opportunity to take an Interim course.
Freshmen are required to take an Interim course their first
year. All other current students are expected to complete the
two interims required for graduation.
Interim is an opportunity for intense concentration on a
single course of study. Since one Interim course equals a fulltime load, students should plan to spend the same amount of
time in class and preparing for class as they would for a fourcourse load during fall or spring semesters. Students should
be prepared for at least 40 class hours during the Interim and
should anticipate the equivalent of the normal two hours of
study for each class hour. Since the course length is only 3 112
weeks, attendance at every class is imperative. While it is
expected that students will attend every class period,
instructors will establish the precise attendance policy for
their courses. Students can register for only one course credit
during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who
chooses not to enroll in an Interim course.
Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0
scale. Students generally have the option to register on a
PassINo credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on
the PIN system; this is indicated in the course description.
Some courses are offered for either upper or lower division
credit. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and
students must select which is most appropriate for their
needs. Students registering for upper division credit should
anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous
grading standard. Some courses, especially courses with travel
requirements, have additional fees associated with them.
These fees, although intended to be accurate, may change and
students should check with the instructor to verify the final
costs.
Day school students (3.0 credits or more for fall) can take a
total of 1.0 course credit. They may take two half-credit
classes. They may also take a lifetime sport (zero credit). The
lifetime sport is at no additional charge if they are full-time
students (fall term). If less than full time, they will be charged.
Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim as a
cross registration and will be charged WEC tuition $1321 per
course credit and a $25 technology fee. If they do so, they may
petition to take an additional 1.0 course credit in Weekend
College for winter trimester.
Augsburg College, as afirmed in its mission, does not
discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, national
or ethnic origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status,
status with regard to public assistance, or disability in its
education policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan
programs, athletic andlor school administered programs, except
in those instances where religion is a bona fide occupational
qualification. Augsburg College is committed to providing
reasonable accommodations to its employees and its students.
Any questions concerning Augsburg's compliance with federal or
state regulations implementing equal access and opportunity can
be directed to Betty Wade, afirmative action coordinator, Ofice
of Human Resources, CB 79,Augsburg College, 221 1 Riverside
Ave., Minneapolis, M N 55454. She can be reached by telephone,
(612) 330-1023; or by e-mail, <wadeb@augsburg.edu>.

Introduction to Polymer Chemistry and
American Plastic
CHM 104-J
Instructor: Ron Fedie
Previously there was the Stone Age, Iron Age, and Bronze Age.
Now we live in the Age of Polymers (and Plastics). Without
this innovative technology, life as we know it would be much
different. The variety of polymer molecules and their
properties make up many, diverse plastics and the variations
are endless. Many items and materials in the areas of
coatings, adhesives, leisure/sports equipment,
building/construction, automobiles, furniture, clothes,
medical supplies, cosmetics, and others that are used everyday
come from different polymeric materials made from polymer
molecules. In this course we will explore and discuss the
world of polymer chemistry. Polyethylene is one of the most
commonly used synthetic polymers in "plastic" wrap and
trash bags. A common natural polymer, polyisoprene, is
collected from the sap of rubber trees and tires, golf balls, and
latex gloves are just some of the many uses. The class will
focus on two books. One, American Plastic: A Cultural
History, by Jeffrey Meikle, for the historical perspective of our
world of polymers. Themes from the book, the different
types of polymers used, and recent themes such as the
recycling of plastics will be discussed. A second book, Giant
Molecules, by Grosberg and Khokhlov, will help with the
previously mentioned themes and give more depth to the
broad world of polymers not covered in Meikle's book. There
will be six lab periods in which some polymer molecules will
be made and several of their interesting properties will be
explored. Students will be graded on 25 group worksheets,
six quizzes, six reflection papers, six lab periods, and an
individual project and presentation.

Topics: Investigating the Victorian
Thriller
ENG 282-D
ENG 482-D
Instructor: Dallas Liddle
This course will study the phenomenon in 19-century Britain
of the popular novel of suspense, mystery, and terror. From
Frankenstein early in the century to Dracula at its end, the
nightmares imagined by novelists of Great Britain have
continued to interest and horrify readers throughout the 20th
century. Early in the century these tales were generally either
"Gothic" (stories of horror and the supernatural set in Italy
or Spain) or "Newgate" novels (true-crime stories about the
lower classes). By the 1860's however, popular novelists
including Charles Dickens, Mary Braddon, Eliza Wood, and
Wilkie Collins were producing a stunningly successful series
of works in which the action was set in the everyday world of
the Victorian middle classes, and the villains (as one reviewer
remarked) seemed like people the reader might meet at
dinner. Often challenging and sometimes subversive, these
novels drew intense public scrutiny by raising issues that the
politer genre of domestic fiction could hardly hint at
including gender roles and sexual transgression, class and
race oppression, obsession and madness, and the dark sides
of urban life, industrial poverty, and empire. We will read
several of the best of these thrillers, at the same time actively
investigating the culture that produced them. We will read
original reviews and responses, including parodies, and learn
about the context of newspaper and magazine journalism in
which several of the novels appeared. While we investigate
the power of the Gothic and Sensation genres for their
original audiences, however, we will also work to determine
why these novels have continued to appeal to successive
generations of readers. Course grades will be based on class
attendance and participation, two short papers, a group
presentation, and a final exam. Upper-level students will read
one additional novel, write a research-based paper on it, and
share the results of their research with the class.

Instructor: Joe Underhill-Cady
We live and work on the shores of the largest river in North
America. It is the reason the Twin Cities are located where
they are, and it continues to define the city, as human
settlement here in turn has profoundly shaped the river
ecosystem. Of late in cities across America there has been "a
return to the river," and in this class we will be doing the
same. The river stands as a remarkable symbol for the
community, of continuity and change, of cycles and
transformation, of the power and beauty of the natural
world, and there is much to be learned from studying it.
Using the Mississippi as the focus, this course looks at the
changes in thinking about the relationship between humanity
and the natural world, as the relationship has been expressed
in literature, law, science, religion, political philosophy, and
popular culture. Particular attention will be paid to legal and
cultural conceptions of the natural world, including the ideas
of property and ownership. We will explore the distinction
between wilderness and civilization and the political function
of the line dividing those two realms.

and the book of Revelation in the New Testament, as well as
apocalyptic themes elsewhere in the New Testament, such as
the letters of the Apostle Paul. The apocalyptic literature of
the intertestamental period will also be examined. This course
will also address the legacy of apocalyptic literature in the
history of Christian thought and experience including an

Cultures of Violence
SOC 290-J
Instructor: James Vela-McConnell
Street gangs and warfare. Police brutality and genocide.
Domestic abuse and terrorism. What are the dynamics
underlying these and other forms of violence? What do they
have in common? How do they differ? This course takes
violence in its many forms as a topic for sociological analysis
and concludes with an examination of non-violent
alternatives. With this in mind, we will compare different
theoretical perspectives on violence, such as psychological,
social psychological, and socio-cultural perspectives. The
course will involve a combination of lecture and discussion
based on readings and videos, debate of current issues in the
field, and guest speakers from and field trips to local
organizations dealing with problems of violence. Students
will be expected to research, write about, and present on the
sociological dimensions of a particular form of violence. In
addition, there will be short reaction papers based on the
readings, and classroom participation will be an important
part of grading. This course has a lab fee of $25 payable the
first day of class to the instructor.
Prerequisite: None

Topics: The Sociology of Social
Movements
SOC 295-J
Instructor: Lars Christiansen
Scores of social movements have shaped and challenged the
social, political, and economic institutions of the United
States. Many of these protest movements seek to change the
established social order; some seek its defense and
preservation. This course offers the sociological study of
social movements in the United States within the last two
centuries. We will explore important question such as: Why
do people engage in protests at certain times, while at other
times reamin silent? Why are people willing to risk their lives
to create social change? How do social movements form, and
what causes their decline? Is the use of violence an effective
means of establishing social change? We will address these
and other crucial questions through a systematic study of
several social movements including labor, civil rights,
feminist, environmentalist, and anti-global capital
movements.

in social work and to help students explore a possible major
in social work or future career in the human services.
The three-hour weekly seminar is devoted to discussions that
assist students in integrating agency experiences and readings
that explore the historical development of social welfare as an
institution and the nature and value system of social work as a
profession. Students will also examine and critique the
manner in which social, economic, and political structures
impact diverse groups in society. Students will focus on their
own responsibilities in society, as well as examine their
personal value system in relation to special concerns, such as
poverty and the "isms." Detailed information will be sent to

Inside Washington 2002:
Academic seminars
Politics and the Media
Politics, Power, and the Presidency
January 6-1 8, 2001
Pol 398-A(l.O Credit)
January 2002 marks the end of President Bush's first year in office
and the beginning of the race for the congressional midterm
elections that may mean a party switch in the House or Senate.
Much is also at stake at the state level as numerous gubernatorial
races may determine who will run for president in 2004. Many
retirements and new seats as a result of reapportionment and
redistricting means that the political deck is being reshuffled.
Who will be advantaged? What are the likely outcomes? What
main forces will be at play? How will President Bush's policy
agenda affect the political landscape and what role does the
media play in the political and policy games of Washington, D.C.?
Inside Washington 2002 is an exceptional opportunity for
students to step into the fire of politics and gain a unique insight
into these and many other issues. Through site visits, tours,
briefings, and lectures, politicians, media personalities, policy
makers, and scholars will take students on a behind-the-scenes
journey through the halls of power. Don't miss this special
opportunity to go inside Washington!
The first week, "Politics and the Media:' will examine how the
relationship between politicians and the media shapes political
news.
The second week, "Politics, Power, and the Presidency:' will
explore the first year of the Bush Administration, and the
influences that affect the public policy agenda of any new
presidential administration.
For further information about the program see Professor
Hedblom in Memorial Hall 117A, call her at 330-1197, or email:
hedblom@augsburg.edu.There are four scholarships available to
cover registration and tuition costs based on priority in

Introduction to Interim
Interim is an integral part of the school year at Augsburg
College. The College follows a 4-1-4 calendar, with fall and
spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a
four-week January Interim. Interim is intended to be a time
for both students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and
learning and to investigate questions and topics in places and
ways not possible during the regular term.
Interim is an opportunity for intense concentration on a
single course of study. Since one Interim course equals a fulltime load, students should plan to spend the same amount of
time in class and preparing for class as they would for a fourcourse load during fall or spring semesters. Students should
be prepared for at least 40 class hours during the Interim and
should anticipate the equivalent of the normal two hours of
study for each class hour. Since the course length is only 3 112
weeks, attendance at every class is imperative. While it is
expected that students will attend every class period, instructors will establish the precise attendance policy for their
courses. Students can register for only one course credit during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who
chooses not to enroll in an Interim course.
Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0
scale. Students generally have the option to register on a
PassINo credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on
the PIN system; this is indicated in the course description.
Some courses are offered for either upper or lower division
credit. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and students must select which is most appropriate for their needs.
Students registering for upper division credit should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading
standard. Some courses, especially courses with travel requirements, have additional fees associated with them. These fees,
although intended to be accurate, may change; and students
should check with the instructor to verify the final costs.
Students are required to complete at least 33 course credits for
graduation. This course total must include two Interims for
students who enter with fewer than 14 courses. Freshmen are
required to take an Interim course their first year. A maximum of four Interim course credits may be counted toward
the 33 course credits required for graduation. Transfer students should refer to their transfer credit evaluation form or
consult the registrar for the number of Interim courses
required.
Day school students (3.0 credits or more for fall) can take a
total of 1.0 course credit. They may take two half-credit classes. They may also take a lifetime sport (zero credit). The lifetime sport is at no additional charge if they are full-time students (fall term). If less than full-time, they will be charged.
Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim as a
cross registration and will be charged WEC tuition $1258 per
course credit and a $25 technology fee. If they do so, they may
take only 1.0 additional course credit in Weekend College for
winter trimester.
Augsburg College, as affirmed in its mission, does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, national
or ethnic origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, status with regard to public assistance, or disability in its
education policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan
programs, athletic and/or school administered programs,
except in those instances where religion is a bona fide occupational qualification. Augsburg College is committed to providing reasonable accommodations to its employees and its students.
Any questions concerning Augsburg's compliance with federal
or state regulations implementing equal access and opportunity can be directed to Betty Wade, affirmative action coordinator, Office of Human Resources, CB 79, Augsburg College,
221 1 Riverside Ave., Minneapolis, MN 55454. She can be
reached by telephone, (612) 330-1023; or by e-mail,
<wadeb@augsburg.edu>.
Introduction
Options
International Interim-Students are invited to participate in
the international Interim courses offered by the Upper
Midwest Association for Intercultural Education (UMAIE)
and other consortia. These course opportunities are listed on
page 47. Some courses have early registration deadlines.
Internships deadline-Friday, December 8. January Interim
internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an
internship must meet departmental requirements and present
a signed internship-learning agreement plan to the Center for
Service, Work, and Learning (1st floor Memorial) by the first
day of Interim classes. The learning-agreement forms are
available in the same office. Internships during Interim must
involve full-time work placements for approximately four
weeks. Assistance for planning internships is available in the
Center for Service, Work, and Learning.
Independent studylresearch or directed study-Students
may elect a program of independent study (upper division
499) or directed study (lower division 299) for Interim.
Faculty members are strongly discouraged from accepting
responsibility for more than one independent study per
Interim. Students choosing to pursue independent or directed
study must:
1. Meet departmental requirements
2. Present to the registrar a copy of the proposed study
plan approved by the supervising faculty member and
the directedlindependent study registration form.
These forms must be submitted by December 1.
Appropriate study proposal and registration forms can
be obtained in the Office of the Registrar.
Introduction
Interims at other schools-Augsburg students may enroll at
any other 4-1-4 institution that offers a reciprocal Interim
arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim programs are available
in the registrar's office. Registration for Interims at the other
ACTC colleges will be at Augsburg during the regular registration period. Most courses taught during the Interim at other
4-1-4 schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but may
not necessarily be accepted as meeting Augsburg's general
education requirements or major requirements.
Visiting Students
Augsburg College welcomes students from other 4- 1-4 schools
for the January Interim without tuition charges, provided the
student's home institution agrees not to charge tuition to
Augsburg students for the January term. The waiver of tuition
does not include special fees, housing, or board costs. Other
students will be charged $1,726 for the Interim course plus a
$25 technology fee. Students interested in registering for an
Augsburg Interim should write to the Office of the Registrar
for application forms or use the forms provided by the Interim
office at their own school. There is an application processing
fee of $25. Students are welcome to stay on campus but are
not required to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be
made to the Office of Residence Life.
It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor
visiting students may register for 199, 299, 399, or 499 courses.

Drawing
ART 107-J
Instructors: Pary Pezechkian-Weinberg and Tara
Christopherson
The legendary light and geography of Provence has shaped art
history for centuries. In the last hundred years alone, it has
inspired countless works of art. Using French language and
personal art, students will immerse themselves in place, documenting their own inspiration with text and images of
Provence through journal, discussion, sketching and assemblage. The language, culture and art of Provence will come
alive for students, resulting in a very personal memoir
grounded in site-specific content. Students will spend the
majority of their time in Provence, winding up the program
with four days in Paris. For more information, contact Prof.
Pary Pezechkian-Weinberg, (612) 330-1090 or Prof. Tara

Chemistry for Changing Times
CHM 100-J
Instructor: Arlin Gyberg
This course is developed from the perspective of a person living in modern, high-technology society such as the United
States. It assumes that before one can evaluate a moral or
societal issue of a scientific nature one at least must be able to
understand the science involved. Anything less is an impression rather than an informed decision. As we develop scientific concepts we will at the same time relate them to an abundance of current issues. We live in a world of pesticides, fertilizers, plastics, birth control, food abundance and food shortage, food additives and processing and synthesis, organically
grown food, chemical dependency, licit and illicit drugs, the
energy crisis, and the debates about sources of energy, the
green house effect, and nuclear waste storage, pollution,
genetic engineering and much more. Many of these problems
are chemical in nature. Thus, in learning about chemistry, via
lecture and in-class discussion, we can begin to understand
ourselves, our society, our world, and even some of the universe. The grade for the course is based on a percentage of the
score of total points on the daily quizzes.

CSC 373-J
Instructor: Charles Sheaffer
This course is especially intended for students with no prior
exposure to programming in particular or computer science
in general. It will be a laboratory intensive, self-paced course
using the Scheme programming language. We will introduce
an alternative approach to some of the most important concepts of computer science including problem solving, simulation, object-oriented programming, functional programming,
procedural and data abstraction, and program interpretation.
Students with knowledge of programming will benefit from
exposure to the alternative paradigm represented by the
Scheme language and will acquire a concrete understanding
of how these important concepts are actually implemented in
real languages and machines. Students will be evaluated based
on a series of programming projects. CSC 373 is a continuation of CSC 273.

The Cuban Story: Quantitative
Journalism in Cuba
ENG 347-A
Instructor: Cass Dalglish
Students will research and write stories with a statistical issue
at the core, doing their work where few U.S. citizens have
been able to travel or study-Cuba. They will study how to
evaluate and analyze information both numerically and verbally and how to communicate quantitative data. They will
study the Cuban economy and both the gains and challenges
politics have brought to Cuba. During the 10-day seminar,
students will interview economists, meet government officials,
travel to the country to consider food and farming, study
health care and education, and meet students and journalists.
Finally, students will write lucid investigative stories which
demonstrate that they have gained an ability to gather, handles, and present quantitative information in a precise and
readable style - in oral and written formats. The class will
have several meetings at Augsburg before the Cuba travel and
several following the group's return to the U.S. [This is a joint
day Interimlwinter WEC course with enrollment limits.]

Topics: Which West? The American
West in Film and Literature
ENG 282-A
ENG 382-A
Instructor: Joan Thompson
In this class you will read literature and view films in order to
learn about ways in which ideas about the American West
have helped to shape American identity and cohstructions of
the West. Although over 100 years have passed since Frederick
Jackson Turner announced the closing of the American frontier at the 1893 meeting of the American Historical Society,
the West has not lost its associations with the frontier and its
attendant mythology. You will learn that even as formulaic
fiction and film popularized this vision of the West, serious
writers and, more recently, filmmakers have been exploring
other possible versions of the West. Through focusing on
these explorations of the West as place, you will gain an
understanding of the role of myths, such as the romantic gunfighter's conquest of both Native peoples and land, in
American views of the West. You will also explore ideas such
as Manifest Destiny, individual freedom, and appropriate land
use. Because the West has always been filled with a plurality of
voices, you will look'at ways writers and filmmakers who have
visited, imagined, or lived in the West have both affirmed and
countered these myths and ideas in their work.
Course grades will be based on readinghiewing journals, a
three to four page paper, a final exam, and class participation.
Additionally, if you are enrolled in 382, you will read several
critical articles on reserve at Lindell Library, as well as an
additional novel. You will then write an additional short
paper on the novel using the critical ideas you have studied.
You will also give a brief presentation on your additional
reading.

Topics: Investigating the Victorian
Thriller
ENG 282-D
ENG 482-D
Instructor: Dallas Liddle
This course will study the phenomenon in nineteenth-century Britain of the popular novel of suspense, mystery and terror. From Frankenstein early in the century to Dracula at its
end, the nightmares imagined by novelists of Great Britain
have continued to interest and horrify readers throughout
the 20th century. Early in the century these tales were generally either "Gothic" (stories of horror and the supernatural
set in Italy or Spain) or "Newgate" novels (true-crime stories
about the lower classes). By the 1860's however, popular novelists including Charles Dickens, Mary Braddon, Eliza Wood
and Wilkie Collins were producing a stunningly successful
series of works in which the action was set in the everyday
world of the Victorian middle classes, and the villains (as one
reviewer remarked) seemed like people the reader might
meet at dinner. Often challenging and sometimes subversive,
these novels drew intense public scrutiny by raising issues
that the politer genre of domestic fiction could hardly hint at
including gender roles and sexual transgression, class and
race oppression, obsession and madness, and the dark sides
of urban life, industrial poverty, and empire. We will read
several of the best of these thrillers, at the same time actively
investigating the culture that produced them. We will read
original reviews and responses, including parodies, and learn
about the context of newspaper and magazine journalism in
which several of the novels appeared. While we investigate
the power of the Gothic and Sensation genres for their original audiences, however, we will also work to determine why
these novels have continued to appeal to successive generations of readers. Course grades will be based on class attendance and participation, two short papers, a group presentation, and a final exam. Upper-level students will read one
additional novel, write a research-based paper on it, and
share the results of their research with the class.

Topics: The Heroic Journey
ENG 282-M
ENG 382-M
Instructor: Joan Griffin
"The hero," says Joseph Campbell, "Is the man or woman who
has been able to battle past his personal and local historical
limitations to the generally valid, normally human forms."
This struggle, the heroic journey, is a quest for wholeness, for
harmony with oneself, one's society, and even the universe.
The journey may be physical, moral, psychological, or spiritual, but it always concludes with the regeneration of the hero
and/or the redemption of the hero's society.
This course will study archetypal patterns of the heroic journey as well as specific examples of such journeys, emphasizing the work of Joseph Campbell, but also citing studies of
the hero by Lord Ragland, Carol Pearson, and Richard
Slotkin, among others. We will note that major heroic genres
in western tradition-the epic and romance-almost always
assume that the hero is usually a warrior and aristocrat. Thus
we will analyze typical elements of the heroic warrior myth as
depicted in ancient and medieval epics and romance, but will
also pay particular attention to works that challenge or
enlarge the tradition. We will consider the implications of the
enduring popularity of warrior-hero renditions of the heroic
journey.
Evaluation is based primarily on papers. Class attendance is
mandatory. Do not take this course if you know that you will
need to miss more than two classes.

60s a series of major events and fundamental social change
occurred in the United States. For the first two weeks, we will
seek to develop a basic understanding of race relations in the
U.S. through readings, visiting lecturers, videos, learning from
each other, and the MLK, Jr. event on January 15. Then, this
intentionally diverse class will board a bus for an intense,
study-travel journey to Little Rock, Memphis, Selma,
Birmingham, Montgomery, Atlanta and Nashville-the places
where history was made and the museums that chronicle
those times. We will meet with and interview participants in
these critical events, as well as actively engage one another in
dialogue and collaborative learning. The course objectives
Interdisciplinary

Environmental and River Politics
POL 241-J
Instructor: Joe Underhill-Cady
We live and work on the shores of the largest river in North
America. It is the reason the Twin Cities are located where
they are, and it continues to define the city, as human settlement here in turn has profoundly shaped the river ecosystem.
Of late in cities across America there has been "a return to the
river," and in this class we will be doing the same. The River
stands as a remarkable symbol for the community, of continuity and change, of cycles and transformation, of the power
and beauty of the natural world, and there is much to be
learned from studying it.
Using the Mississippi as the focus, this course looks at the
changes in thinking about the relationship between humanity
and the natural world, as the relationship has been expressed
in literature, law, science, religion, political philosophy, and
popular culture. Particular attention will be paid to legal and
cultural conceptions of the natural world, including the ideas
of property and ownership. We will explore the distinction
between wilderness and civilization and the political function
of the line dividing those two realms.
We will explore the river through the eyes and experiences of
those who have worked and lived their lives along it, and
through site visits to locations along the river, speakers in
class, and on the Internet. Students will have an opportunity
to explore their own interests in the river through individual
projects, ranging from boat building, to lobbying at the State
Capital, to the various Mississippi floods, to river ecology and
"green consumerism." There will be opportunities to work
with local river-related groups on those projects. Throughout
the course students will be encouraged to dream, and to work
on taking that vision and making it a reality, in building support for a project, in networking, in having patience, in following through, in working hard, and at the end, having
something concrete to show for their efforts. These projects
can be a prototype for the future pursuit of a vocation to contribute to their world in whatever way one is called to do so.

practice in social work and to help students explore a possible major in social work or future career in the human services.
The three-hour weekly seminar is devoted to discussions that
assist students in integrating agency experiences and readings
that explore the historical development of social welfare as an
institution and the nature and value system of social work as
a profession. Students will also examine and critique the
manner in which social, economic, and political structures
impact diverse groups in society. Students will focus on their
own responsibilities in society, as well as examine their personal value system in relation to special concerns, such as

Intructor: Tony Bibus and Ragnhild Collin-Hansen
This course will introduce students to social work practice in
the area of child welfare with special focus on the relationship
of child welfare laws, policies, and court to the lives of families and children. Students will study Minnesota statutes,
meet with key policy makers, observe court procedures and
discuss practice and legal issues with child welfare social
workers and possibly with families and children as well. There
will also be opportunities to compare child welfare laws and
practice in the US with those in Europe, especially Norway.
The principles of permanency planning, family-centered
practice, prevention and protection, and the twin goals in
child welfare of securing safety and nurturing children while
preserving their ties to their family will be examined. We will
also explore controversies and emerging issues in child welfare law such as concurrent planning, "dual-track" service
strategies, encouragement of the adoption of children of color
by white families, and research related to the effects of poverty and oppression on the neglect of children's need. Students
will analyze the dynamic interplay of societal values, power,
politics, facts and myths as they manifest themselves in child
welfare laws; they will begin to form their own positions
regarding an ideal approach to supporting the welfare of children from a global perspective. Evaluation of learning will be
in the form of assessments by instructors and students of the
major paper or project completed for the course.

answered these and other questions across a variety of times
and cultural contexts? This course will explore these and
other related questions with the assumption that poetic language can and often should be sensual, erotic, sparky, a flirtation with the reader, and the understanding that the sexiest of
poems are seldom actually about the sex act itself. In this
course we will take a look at erotic elements in poems and
explore how poets handle physical desires of all kinds to
engage and seduce their readers. Students will explore a variety of ways to work with erotic language and subjects. We will
examine what makes particular images and metaphors sensual and how poets transform potentially dull and lor unsexy
subjects into vibrant and appealing answers to human desire.
The class will include in-class discussions of text, writers to
the course, on the recommendation of the creative writing
faculty. To be considered for enrollment in this course, con-

A
t Augsburg College, we believe that
the college experience should be a time of
exploration, of discovery, of new experiences, and new possibilities. We also
believe that a liberal arts education is your
best preparation for living in the fastpaced, changing, and complex world of
today and tomorrow. Upon graduation, you
will be able to demonstrate not only the
mastery of a major field of study, but also
the ability to think critically, solve problems, and communicate effectively
Emphasis on values, perspectives,
experience, and skills
The heart of an Augsburg education is
the Augsburg cuniculum-the College's
general education program, which structures your liberal arts studies through challenging and thought-provoking courses
requiring students to consider important
issues and examine values questions. These
Liberal Arts Perspectives include Western
Heritage, Intercultural Awareness, Human
Identity the Social World, Christian Faith,
The City, Aesthetics, and the Natural World.
At the same time, courses across all disciplines stress the skills that will serve you
for a lifetime-writing, speaking, critical
thinking, and quantitative reasoning, to
name a few.
Thanks to Augsburg's prime location in
the heart of a thriving metropolitan area,
many courses are able to offer rich and varied learning opportunities in real-life situations through academic internships, experiential education, volunteer community service, and cultural enrichment. In a sense,
the resources of the Twin Cities are an
extended campus for Augsburg students.
Selection from over 50 majors
Augsburg offers more than 50 majorsor you can create your own major either
on campus or through the Associated
Colleges of the Twin Cities (ACTC). (See
page 55 for a complete list of majors and
minors.) This five-college consortium
allows students to take courses on other
campuses without charge while a full-time
student at Augsburg. The ACTC includes
Augsburg College, College of St. Catherine,
Hamline University, Macalester College,
and the University of St. Thomas.
Through the Weekend College
Program, 14 majors are offered.
MISSION STATEMENT
Students who graduate from Augsburg
are well prepared to make a difference in
the world. They stand as testaments to the
College motto, "Education for Service,"
and to the mission of the College:
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
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.

About Augsburg 1
Early Leaders Establish a Direction
The Focus Changed
August Weenaas was Augsburg's first
president (1869-1876).
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.
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.
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 125 years.
Education for Service
Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist"
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 18905, 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 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 (19381962). His involvement in ecumenical and
civic circles made Augsburg a more visible
part of church and city life.
After World War 11, 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.
Accreditation for the College
Augsburg added departments essential
to a liberal arts college, offering a modem
college program based on general education requirements and elective majors.
With curriculum change came a long effort
to become accredited.
The College reached accreditation in
1954, although many alumni had entered
graduate schools and teaching positions
long before that time.
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.
-
2 About Augsburg
A College in the City
President Oscar A. Anderson (19631980) continued Augsburg's emphasis on
involvement with the city. He wanted to
reach out to nontraditional student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for
all people. During his years of leadership
the College became a vital and integral part
of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg
added the Music Hall, Mortensen Hall,
Urness Hall, the Christensen Center, Ice
Arena, and Murphy Place.
Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the founders
who believed:
Dr. Charles S. Anderson led the College
from 1980 to 1997. He guided Augsburg's
commitment to liberal arts education, spiritual growth and freedom, diversity in
enrollment and programs, and a cuniculum that draws on the resources of the city
as extensions of campus and classroom.
Some of the accomplishments during his
tenure include instituting two graduate
degree programs, hosting national and
international figures at College-sponsored
forums and events, increasing accessibility,
and the addition of the Foss Center for
Worship, Drama, and Communication; the
Oscar Anderson Residence Hall; and the
James G. Lindell Family Library.
The city-with all its excitement,
challenges, and diversity-is an unequaled
learning laboratory for Augsburg students.
Dr. William \! Frame became president
in August 1997. He has initiated a strategic
planning process intended to idennfy the
distinguishing marks of the Augsburg education-in both pedagogy and substance-and
a restructuring effort intended to improve
operating efficiencies and open access for the
College to new sources of capital.
Augsburg also offers graduate and
undergraduate level nursing courses as
well as supporting degree courses through
its Rochester Program based in Rochester,
Minnesota.
In 1999, a new apartment-style student
residence opened. Major renovation of
Sverdrup Hall created space for the
Enrollment and Financial Services Center,
the Women's Resource Center, and the
Honors Program Suite; a skyway link to
Lindell Library was constructed.
An Augsburg education should be
preparation for service in community and
church;
Education should have a solid liberal
arts core with a practical dimension in
order to send out productive, creative, and
successful citizens;
Augsburg is a quality liberal arts institution
set in the heart of a great memopolitan center.
There are now almost 16,000 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 social work, leadership,
nursing, and physician assistant training
(after May 2001).
WEEKEND COLLEGE
Augsburg's Weekend College program
provides an educational alternative to
adults who desire college experience but
who work or have other commitments
during the week. It is a means by which
men and women may earn a baccalaureate
degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for a career change or pursue a personal interest in one or more
areas of the liberal arts.
-
About Augsburg 1
Weekend College began in 1982 with
69 students taking courses in three majors.
Eight courses were offered in the first term.
Today with more than 1,000 students
enrolled each term and 14 majors,
Augsburg's Weekend College is the largest
program of its kind in the state. Faculty in
Weekend College are full-time Augsburg
professors as well as adjunct professionals.
The Weekend College student body is
involved in student government, and students participate in academic and extracurricular activities such as the student newspaper, travel seminar, and student organizations.
A Community of Learners
Augsburg Weekend College continues
to develop to meet the needs of the adult
and nontraditional student.
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 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 teaching. They
are actively involved in a dynamic faculty
development program that introduces
them to current thought in many fields,
but especially in teaching and learning
techniques and theories.
The Adult as Learner
Augsburg Weekend College is based on
the assumption that students who enroll in
the program will be mature, self-disciplined and motivated learners who seek a
combination of classroom experience and
individual study. Each course is divided
into periods of concentrated on-campus
study separated by time for independent
study and class preparation.
Alternate Weekends
To accommodate this learning format,
classes generally meet on alternate weekends for three and one-half hours on either
Friday evening, Saturday morning,
Saturday afternoon or Sunday afternoon.
Laboratory sections or additional class
hours may be scheduled during the week.
Weekend College students may take from
one to four courses each term. Selected
courses are also available on weekday
evenings and are open to both day and
Weekend College students. The academic
year for Weekend College is divided into
three trimesters.
Essential to the goals of Augsburg's
Weekend College 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
Weekend College students to make use of
College facilities such as Lindell Library
and the Christensen Center, and to participate in College activities such as music and
dramatic presentations and athletic events.
Weekend College Faculty
Augsburg's size and small classes
encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and students.
Faculty act as academic advisers and participate regularly in campus activities.

ALL TRANSFER STUDENTS
Augsburg College welcomes students
who wish to transfer from other accredited
colleges or universities. College credit is
granted for liberal arts courses satisfactorily
completed at accredited institutions. The
College reserves the right not to grant
credit for courses where it considers the
work unsatisfactory, to grant provisional
credit for work taken at unaccredited institutions, and to require that certain courses
be taken at Augsburg.
Augsburg College limits transfer
coursework from two-year colleges once a
student has reached junior status. Students
may transfer a maximum of 64 semester
credits (96 quarter credits) from two-year
colleges. Once a student reaches junior
status, no additional credits will transfer
from two-year institutions toward the
minimum of 33 credits required for a
baccalaureate degree. These courses can,
however, be used to meet liberal arts and
major requirements.
A cumulative grade point average
(GPA) of 2.2 (on a 4.0 scale) or better is
required on previous college work for
admission to the College.
Acceptance of courses submitted for
transfer is done by the registrar's office
based upon the official student
transcript(s). Acceptance of courses presented for a major or minor also requires
approval of the department. The major or
minor department may require certain
courses or a minimum number of courses
be taken at Augsburg.
Students transfemng from the
Minnesota State University and College
System who have completed the Minnesota
Transfer Curriculum, have earned the
Associate of Arts degree from MNSCU, and
have a 2.5 (on a 4.0 scale) cumulative GPA
or higher will be given transfer status as
outlined below.
The following applies only to the
MNSCU A.A. graduate:
1. Admission will be with junior standing
following the MN Transfer Curriculum. A
maximum of 17 Augsburg equivalent
courses (64 semester credits or 96 quarter
credits from a community college) will be
accepted once junior status is reached. No
additional courses may be transferred from
a community college.
2. All Augsburg general education requirements will be waived except:
The City Perspective
Two courses in Christian Faith (any
two areas)
The language requirement as stated
One course that meets the Quantitative
Reasoning Graduation Skill requirement
-
Undergraduate Admissions 23

to majors. Some Augsburg majors require
additional prerequisite coursework beyond
the A.A. degree. Also, the physician assistant major requires a cumulative GPA
higher than 2.5. Students are advised to
consult major departments for major
requirements upon transfer.
Admission to a major, as well as admission to the College, is sometimes necessary.
Please check with the Office of
Undergraduate Admissions and consult the
departmental section of this catalog.
Note: No student who falls below the
standards for automatic admission to the
College will be considered for admission

etc. will be made before eligibility for a
cash refund of any resulting credit balance
is determined. Please 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.
Pro-Rata Refund Policy: Applies to all
Augsburg students who withdraw from all
courses during their first term at Augsburg
and receive Federal Title IV financial aid
(Federal Title IV financial aid includes the
Pell Grant, SEO Grant, Perkins Loan,
Stafford Loan, and PLUS Loan).
Tuition, fees, and room costs will be
calculated based on the pro-rated portion
of the term completed. The student may be
eligible for a pro-rata refund up to the 60
percent point in time of the term. The student account will be credited for that portion of tuition and room for which the student was not enrolled. This calculation will
use federal government guidelines.

10 Financial Information
Federal Return of Funds Policy: This
policy applies to returning students who
have completed at least one full term,
withdraw from all courses for the current
term, and receive federal Title IV financial
assistance (including Pel1 Grant, SEO
Grant, Perkins Loan, Stafford Loan, Parent
PLUS Loan). The Return of Funds Policy
is based on a percentage derived from the
number of days attended divided by the
number of days in the term.
The refund of charges calculation used
is the Augsburg College Refund Policy stated above.
Students may appeal refund decisions
through the Petition Committee.
MEDICAL REFUND
If a student is forced to withdraw from
all courses in a term due to illness or an
accident, the refund will include the normal percentage plus one-half of the percentage adjustment, upon submission of
documentation from the attending doctor
stating the inability or inadvisability of
continued enrollment.
UNOFFICIAL WITHDRAWAL
Federal regulations require that records
of financial aid recipients who earn failing
grades in all their classes be reviewed. If
courses are not completed (e.g. unofficial
withdrawal, stopped attending), the
College is required to refund financial aid
to the appropriate sources according to
federal or Augsburg refund policies based
on the last recorded date of attendance.
Students are responsible for the entire cost of
the term including the portion previously
covered by financial aid should they stop
attending. Students are strongly urged to
follow guidelines for complete withdrawal
from college. If there are extenuating
circumstances, a petition to have the cost
of tuition refunded can be made. Petition
forms are available in the Office of Student
Life in Christensen Center.
All students who wish to be considered
for financial assistance must establish financial aid eligibility on an annual basis. This
includes completing the application process
as outlined below and meeting the academic progress standards outlined in the
brochure "Academic Progress Standards for
Financial Aid." This brochure is available
from the Enrollment and Financial Services
Center and is distributed to students on an
annual basis.
Financing higher education could be
the most significant investment a person
or family makes in a lifetime. Proper planning and wise choices are important, not
only in choosing a college, but also in the
methods used to pay for it. Augsburg
College, through its EFSC, will help students and their families protect access to a
quality Augsburg education in a time of
increasing financial challenge.
Financial assistance awarded through
Augsburg may be a combination of
scholarships, grants, loans, and part-time
work opportunities. The College cooperates with federal, state, church, and private
agencies in providing various aid programs. During the 1999-2000 academic
year, more than eight out of ten students at
Augsburg received financial assistance.
The primary responsibility for financing
a college education rests upon the student
and family. Financial aid supplements
student and family resources.
The Free Application for Federal
Student Aid (FAFSA) and the Augsburg
Financial Aid Application help determine
the amount of assistance for which a student is eligible. This analysis takes into
account such family financial factors as
-

current income, assets, number of dependent family members, other educational
expenses, debts, retirement needs, and special considerations.

your financial aid application:

H KINDS OF AID
A student applying for aid from
Augsburg applies for assistance in general
rather than for a specific scholarship or
grant (except as noted). The various forms
of aid available are listed here for information only.
In addition to aid administered by
Augsburg College, students are urged to
investigate the possibility of scholarships,
grants and loans that might be available in
their own communities. It is worthwhile to
check with churches, the company or business employing parents or spouses, high
schools, service clubs, and fraternal organizations for information on aid available to
students who meet their requirements. In
addition to these sources, some students
are eligible for aid through Vocational
Rehabilitation, Educational Assistance for
Veterans, Educational Assistance for
Veterans' Children. and other sources.

5 3TUDENT LIFE
E
xperiences in the classroom are an
important part of college life, but learning
and development also occur in formal and
informal activities of the College and the
metropolitan area. Whether students are
residents or commuters, the climate for
learning and living at Augsburg will add
dimension to their education.
As a college of the church, we are
concerned about spiritual as well as academic and social growth. Our concern
for spiritual growth is evident in the
opportunities we encourage and provide
for students to explore their own faith.
Because our campus is comprised of
individuals from many different religious
and cultural backgrounds, our worship life
is characterized by a similar diversity and
richness of tradition. Bible studies, growth
groups, outreach teams and community
outreach opportunities, retreats, peace and
justice forums, concerts, and gatherings are
examples of the wide variety of activities
on campus.
This ministry finds its most visible
expression in chapel worship where students, faculty, and staff gather each day to
give thanks and hear the Gospel proclaimed by a number of speakers and
musicians. Each Wednesday night students
gather for Holy Communion. On Sundays,
Trinity Lutheran worship services are held
on campus, with many other churches
within walking distance.
We seek to develop a free and open
environment where people are encouraged
to use and discover the gifts and sense of
call and vocation that God has given them.
As a college of the church, we encourage
students to form values guided by our
Christian heritage, which will be the basis
for the kind and quality of life that reaches
beyond their years at Augsburg.
The college pastor, associate college
pastor, and campus ministry staff have
offices in the Foss, Lobeck, Miles Center
for Worship, Drama, and Communication
and are available for spiritual guidance,
counseling, support, or information.
Through Student Government, students
secure a closer relationship with and better
understanding of the administration and
faculty and provide input into the decision-making process at Augsburg. Student
Government also sponsors and directs student organizations, protects student rights,
and provides the means for discussions
and action on all issues pertaining to student life at Augsburg.
Student Government is organized into
the executive branch, the legislative
branch, and the judicial branch. Elections
are held in the spring for the next year.
Freshmen elect their representatives in the
fall of their first year. Many kinds of
involvement are possible-program planning, writing, editing, or service opportunities. If you want to get involved, contact
the president or vice president of the student body in their offices in the lower level
of the Christensen Center.
The Student Activities Program creates
opportunities for students to enhance their
leadership skills through active involvement in developing events, activities, and
organizations that serve the student community Hundreds of major programming
efforts and targeted activities for specific
student interests are generated through
these efforts and make Augsburg a dynamic and enjoyable interactive environment.
SOCIAL, CULTURAL, RECREATIONAL
Throughout the year, a variety of social
and cultural activities takes place on campus as well as in the Twin Cities. These
activities include dances, films, theme
events, name entertainment, and visiting
personalities in various fields.
The Christensen Center is the focus of
leisure-time activity on campus. Cooper's
Attic (the gameroom and student lounge)
is a popular hangout located in the lower
level. Many of the clubs that unite classroom and non-classroom related interests
meet here. Student offices in this area
include the College newspaper, the Echo;
the yearbook, The Augsburgian; Student
Government; and the Augsburg Student
Activities Council. KCMR, a student-operated nonprofit radio station serving the
needs of Augsburg and the surrounding
Cedar-Riverside community, is located in
Urness Tower.
FINE ARTS
Students have many opportunities to
participate in music and drama. In addition to appearing on campus and in the
city, the Augsburg Choir, Concert Band,
and Orchestra perform on national and
international tours. Many other ensembles
are available to cover the entire range of
musical styles and previous musical experience. Students stage several plays on campus each year under the direction of the
Theatre Arts Program and have the opportunity to attend a series of on-campus
workshops with visiting arts professionals.
H INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS
Augsburg is affiliated with the
Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic
Conference (MLAC) and is a member of
the National Collegiate Athletic

annually compete in football, soccer, cross
country, basketball, ice hockey, wrestling,
baseball, track and field, and golf. Women

During 1999-2000, Augsburg men's and
women's athletics marked the 75th
anniversary of intercollegiate competition.
Every student is urged to participate in
some activity for recreation and relaxation.
An intramural program provides competition in a variety of team sports as well as
individual performance activities.
Broomball has been an especially popular
coed sport. Check schedules for times
when there is open use of the gymnasium
and ice arena.
SPORTS AND RECREATION

student as well as the intercollegiate
athlete. The campus offers on a spaceavailable basis a double-rink ice arena,

field for winter fitness use by walkers and
runners. (See Fitness Center on page 47.)

14 Student Life
Augsburg's mission focuses on student
learning in the broadest sense. As an indication of the emphasis placed on student
learning, the student and academic affairs
offices work to bring together the student
learning found in the classroom with the
activities of experiential education and
work, residence life, and the learning
resources of the library and information
technology. The following sections elaborate on facets of student life. The formal
academic programs and requirements are
described on page 55.
ACADEMIC SKILLS CENTER
The Academic Skills Center, located in
Room 171 of Foss Center, is designed to
offer students study-skills assistance so
that they may achieve academic success.
The center assists students in improving
their skills in such areas as time management, notetaking, textbook reading and
comprehension, test-taking, and concentration and memory improvement. Diagnostic
testing is also available to assess skills in
reading, vocabulary, spelling, study strategies, and learning styles. The staff will
assist students in developing effective and
efficient study skills.
The Karen M. Housh Tutor Center,
located in Foss Center, Room 18, arranges
for students to meet with tutors for content tutoring in most freshman- and
sophomore-level courses. The center also
notifies students of tutoring labs available
and coordinates supplementary instruction
sessions, in which tutors attend the classes
and lead discussions after class on major
concepts of the course.
The John Evans Learning Laboratory,
located in Foss Center, Room 18, offers
students the opportunity to improve skills
in reading, writing, and mathematics
through the use of computer software, as
well as to review and prepare software for
tests such as PPST, MCAT, L

Interim Courses
Contents
Introduction to Interim
Interim is an integral part of the school year at Augsburg
College. The College follows a 4- 1-4 calendar, with fall and
spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a
four-week January Interim. Interim is intended to be a time
for both students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and
learning and to investigate questions and topics in places and
ways not possible during the regular term.
Interim is an opportunity for intense concentration on a
single course of study. Since one Interim course equals a fulltime load, students should plan to spend the same amount of
time in class and preparing for class as they would for a fourcourse load during fall or spring semesters. Students should
be prepared for at least 40 class hours during the Interim and
should anticipate the equivalent of the normal two hours of
study for each class hour. Since the course length is only 3 112
weeks, attendance at every class is imperative. While it is
expected that students will attend every class period, instructors will establish the precise attendance policy for their
courses. Students can register for only one course credit during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who
chooses not to enroll in an Interim course.
Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0
scale. Students generally have the option to register on a
PassINo credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on
the PIN system; this is indicated in the course description.
Some courses are offered for either upper or lower division
credit. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and students must select which is most appropriate for their needs.
Students registering for upper division credit should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading
standard. Some courses, especially courses with travel requirements, have additional fees associated with them. These fees,
although intended to be accurate, may change; and students
should check with the instructor to verify the final costs.
Students are required to complete at least 33 course credits for
graduation. This course total must include two Interims for
students who enter with fewer than 14 courses. Freshmen are
required to take an Interim course their first year. A maximum of four Interim course credits may be counted toward
the 33 course credits required for graduation. Transfer students should refer to their transfer credit evaluation form or
consult the registrar for the number of Interim courses
required.
Day school students (3.0 credits or more for fall) can take a
total of 1.0 course credit. They may take two half-credit classes. They may also take a lifetime sport (zero credit). The lifetime sport is at no additional charge if they are full-time students (fall term). If less than full-time, they will be charged.
Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim as a
cross registration but will be charged day school tuition $1630
per course credit. If they do so, they may take only 1.0 additional course credit in Weekend College for winter trimester.
Augsburg College, as affirmed in its mission, does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, national
or ethnic origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, status with regard to public assistance, or disability in its
education policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan
programs, athletic and/or school administered programs,
except in those instances where religion is a bona fide occupational qualification. Augsburg College is committed to providing reasonable accommodations to its employees and its students.
Any questions concerning Augsburg's compliance with federal
or state regulations implementing equal access and opportunity can be directed to Lora Steil, affirmative action coordinator, Office of Human Resources, CB 79, Augsburg College,
221 1 Riverside Ave., Minneapolis, MN 55454. She can be
reached by telephone, (612) 330-1023; or by e-mail,
<steil@augsburg.edu>.

.
International Interim-Students are invited to participate in
the international Interim courses offered by the Upper
Midwest Association for Intercultural Education (UMAIE)
and other consortia. These course opportunities are listed on
page 45. Some courses have early registration deadlines.
Internships deadline-Friday, December 10. January Interim
internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an
internship must meet departmental requirements and present
a signed internship-learning agreement plan to the Center for
Service, Work, and Learning (1st floor Memorial) by the first
day of Interim classes. The learning-agreement forms are
available in the same office. Internships during Interim must
involve full-time work placements for approximately four
weeks. Assistance for planning internships is available in the
Center for Service, Work, and Learning.
Independent study/research or directed study-Students
may elect a program of independent study (upper division
499) or directed study (lower division 299) for Interim.
Faculty members are strongly discouraged from accepting
responsibility for more than one independent study per
Interim. Students choosing to pursue independent or directed
study must:
1. Meet departmental requirements
2. Present to the registrar a copy of the proposed study
plan approved by the supervising faculty member and
the directedlindependent study registration form.
These forms must be submitted by December 1.
Appropriate study proposal and registration forms can
be obtained in the Office of the Registrar.
Interims at other schools-Augsburg students may enroll at
any other 4-1-4 institution that offers a reciprocal Interim
arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim programs are available
in the registrar's office. Registration for Interims at the other
ACTC colleges will be at Augsburg during the regular registration period. Most courses taught during the Interim at other
4-1-4 schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but may
not necessarily be accepted as meeting Augsburg's general
education requirements or major requirements.
Visiting Students
Augsburg College welcomes students from other 4-1-4 schools
for the January Interim without tuition charges, provided the
student's home institution agrees not to charge tuition to
Augsburg students for the January term. The waiver of tuition
does not include special fees, housing, or board costs. Other
students will be charged $1,630 for the Interim course.
Students interested in registering for an Augsburg Interim
should write to the Ofice of the Registrar for application
forms or use the forms provided by the Interim office at their
own school. There is an application processing fee of $25.
Students are welcome to stay on campus but are not required
to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be made to the
Office of Residence Life.
It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor
visiting students may register for 199,299,399, or 499 courses.
About This Catalog
The catalog lists courses by departments in alphabetical order.
At the end of the book are listings of other courses not
offered by Augsburg but recognized by the College for Interim
credit. Students may also register for one of the lifetime sports
listed at the end of the catalog. Courses that include travel are
marked with an airplane.

Chemistry for Changing Timer
CHM 100-J
Instructor: Arlin Gyberg
This course is developed from the perspective of a person
living in a modern, high-technology society such as the
United States. It assumes that before one can evaluate a moral
or societal issue of a scientific nature one at least must be able
to understand the science involved. Anything less is an
impression rather than an informed decision. As we develop
scientific concepts we will at the same time relate them to an
abundance of current issues. We live in a world of pesticides,
fertilizers, plastics, birth control, food abundance and food
shortage, food additives and processing and synthesis, organically and non-organically grown food, chemical dependency,
licit and illicit drugs, the energy crisis, and the debates about
sources of energy, the green house effect, and nuclear waste
storage, pollution, genetic engineering and much more. Many
of these problems are chemical in nature. Thus, in learning
about chemistry, via lecture and in-class discussion, we can
begin to understand ourselves, our society, our world, and
even some of the universe. The grade for the course is based
on a percentage of the score of total points on the daily
quizzes.

Introduction to Polymer Chemistry and
American Plastic
CHM 104-J
Instructor: Ron Fedie
Previously there was the Stone Age, Iron Age, and Bronze age.
Now we live in the Age of Polymers (and Plastics). Without
this innovative technology, life as we know it would be much
different. The variety of polymer molecules and their properties make up many, diverse plastics and the variations are endless. Many items and materials in the areas of coatings, adhesives, leisure/sports equipment, building/construction, automobiles, furniture, clothes, medical supplies, cosmetics, and
others that are used every day come from different polymeric
materials made from polymer molecules. In this course we
will explore and discuss the world of polymer chemistry.
Polyethylene is one of the most commonly used synthetic
polymers found in "plastic" wrap and trash bags. A common
natural polymer, polyisoprene, is collected from the sap of
rubber trees and tires, golf balls, and latex gloves are just some
of the many uses. The class will focus on two books. One,
American Plastic: A Cultural History, by Jeffrey Meikle for the
historical perspective of our world of polymers. Themes from
the book, the different types of polymers used, and recent
themes such as the recycling of plastics will be discussed. A
second book, Giant Molecules, by Grosberg and Khokhlov, will
help with the previously mentioned themes and give more
depth to the broad world of polymers not covered in Meikle's
book. There will be six lab periods in which some polymer
molecules will be made and several of their interesting properties will be explored. Students will be graded on 25 group
worksheets, 6 quizzes, 6 reflection papers, 6 lab periods, and
an individual project and presentation.

Instructor: Charles Sheaffer
This course is especially intended for students with no prior
exposure to programming in particular or computer science
in general. It will be a laboratory intensive, self-paced course
using the Scheme programming language. We will introduce
an alternative approach to some of the most important concepts of computer science including problem solving, simulation, object-oriented programming, functional programming,
procedural and data abstraction, and program interpretation.
Students with knowledge of programming will benefit from
exposure to the alternative paradigm represented by the
Scheme language and will acquire a concrete understanding
of how these important concepts are actually implemented in
real languages and machines. Students will be evaluated based
on a series of programming projects. CSC is a continuation of
CSC 273.

American Dialects: Differences and
Attitudes
ENG 219-J
Instructor: John Schmit
Because language plays an important role in our socialization,
the way we speak tells others who we are and with whom we
identify. Our speech is a reflection of our social and economic
standing and our cultural background. In this course we will
explore the ways in which both personal and group identities
are reflected by the ways in which we speak. We will examine a
number of American varieties of English and will attempt to
describe the rules by which these varieties operate. Class sessions will include brief lectures, student presentations, and
student-led discussions. In addition to presenting a topic, students will write a paper on the presentation topic and take a
final exam.

Topics: Introduction to Asian American
Literature
ENG 282-L
ENG 482-L
Instructor: Joan Thompson
In an essay about multicultural American literature, Walter J.
Ong writes that "literature is organized experience and consciousness. Since cultures organize experience and consciousness variously, the study of the literature of another culture
opens new vistas both into the exterior world and into the
human heart." This course will explore some of these vistas
through readings and discussions of nonfiction works, poetry,
short stories, a play, and a novel by Asian American authors.
Some ideas the writers take as subjects through their art
include definitions of an Asian American voice, explorations
of cultural and individual identity, visions of community, and
coming of age. Class sessions will include discussion of the
historical and social contexts that influence the writers studied. In addition to the reading, students will view at least one

Topics: Investigating the Victorian
Thriller
ENG 282-0
ENG 482-0
Instructor: Dallas Liddle
This course will study the phenomenon in 19th-century
Britain of the popular novel of suspense, mystery, and terror.
Early in the century these tales were generally either "Gothic"
(stories of horror and the supernatural set in Italy or Spain)
or "Newgate" novels (true-crime stories about the lower classes). By the 1860s, however, popular novelists including
Charles Dickens, Mary Braddon, and others were producing a
stunningly successful series of works in which the action was
set in the everyday world of the Victorian middle classes.
These novels drew intense public scrutiny by raising issues
that the more polite genre of domestic fiction could hardly
hint at, including gender roles and sexual transgression, class
and race oppression, obsession and madness, and the dark
sides of urban life. We will read several of the best of these
thrillers, at the same time actively investigating the culture
that produced them. We will read original reviews and
responses, including parodies, and learn about the context of
newspaper and magazine journalism in which several of the
novels appeared. While we investigate the power of the Gothic
and Sensation genres for their original audiences, however, we
will also work to determine why these novels have continued
to appeal to successive generations of readers. Course grades
will be based on class attendance and participation, two short
papers, a group presentation, and a final exam. Upper-level
students will read one additional novel, write a research-based
paper on it, and share the results of their research with the
class.

Topics: Cinema and Sexual Identity
ENG 2824
Instructor: Doug Green
What does cinema reveal about how the 20th century has
thought about sexuality?How do cinematic images affect our
sense of our own sexual identity? This topics course in
English examines films from the early years of cinema to the
present in order to explore depictions of and cultural
assumptions about sexual identity. We will, moreover, consider the impact of these images on audience perceptions and
expectations, including those of the self. We will pay special
attention to the various images and constructions of homosexual as well as heterosexual identity in English-language
cinema, especially Hollywood movies, and in some silent and
foreign films. Taking Celluloid Closet as a point of departure,
we will consider how film affects sexual minorities in the
audience as well as in film production.
There will be short readings on sexuality and film. At each
class there will be a full or partial film screening, followed by
small-group and whole-class discussions. We may go to one
or two films offcampus as well, so students should be prepared to buy tickets; these out-of-class screenings may not be
at the regular class time. There will be at least one typed
journal entry due at each class period. The class will meet
from 1-5 p.m., Monday through Thursday of the first two
weeks of Interim; 1-5 p.m., Tuesday through Thursday of the
third week; and 1-5 p.m., Monday through Thursday of the
last week.
Grading will be based on the completion and quality of all
journal entries and on class/film attendance, preparation,
and participation. Students missing more than two
classes/films and/or two journal entries may not pass the
course. All grades
are PIN option only (i.e., 2.0 is required

Instructor: Don Gustafson
This Interim experience is designed to look at the area of
South Asia (primarily India) that is home to one-fifth of the
people of our world. We'll use novels, films, some standard
historical writings, and current South Asia periodicals to consider the impact that colonialism, nationalism, and various
phases of modernization have had on this old, honored, and
traditional culture. We'll read the marriage ads and talk
about social structure, consider the spot at Ayodhya that has
prompted Hindus to massacre Muslims, think on the Christlikeness of a Gandhi, and perhaps have time to note one or
two of the contemporary religious phenomena. Looking at
South Asians helps us to see ourselves in a fuller perspective.
The course will include the usual pedagogical devices of lectures, discussions, some short reaction papers, and tests
(including a final). Students enrolling for upper division credit will be expected to have at least one prior college history
class, to complete a paper or project beyond the regular

Remembering the 20th Century
HIS 440-J
Instructor: Jacqueline de Vries
As the millennium approaches, everyone-artists, politicians,
gossip columnists, historians-seems to have some opinion
about the waning 20th century. What has this century
wrought? The last hundred years have left a great many contradictions: two global wars that destroyed millions of lives
and swept away governments, but brought economic development; the decline (and recovery) of established religion; the
rise (and collapse) of a messianic faith in communism; great
increases in standards of living while famine and child labor
persist; technological breakthroughs that put teachers in space
and AK-47 rifles in the hands of children; new freedoms and
new forms of exploitation. In this course, we will together
attempt to make sense of the 20th century. Please note that
while the course will examine major events and developments
of the century, it will not offer a narrative history, nor will it
be exhaustive. Instead, it will explore a variety of possible
interpretive frameworks to help us better understand where
our grandparents have been and where we are today. Rather
than relying exclusively on (sometimes dry) textbooks, we will
explore the century through a variety of personal narratives,
both written and oral, and reflect on the shaping of both individual and collective memory.
Course materials will include several monographs and novels,
films, photographs, and guest lectures. Students will complete
three five-page papers, one of which will be an interview with
their oldest living relative.

PH Y 220-J
Instructor: J. Ambrose Wolf
This course deals with physics aspects in movies as well as in
science fiction and fantasy fiction literature on a conceptual
level. We will explore scenes and settings in which physics plays
an important role and also learn to discern if they are physically correct or not. This will also expand the awareness of physics
in everyday life, where it is encountered and how it works. The
math component of this course will be minimized in favor of a
better grasp of the concepts and thought processes involved.
Various scenes from movies and excerpts from literature will be
presented, after which the physics connection and understanding will be explored in discussions. The weekly papers will
cover one of the topics discussed in class during that week; the
long-term paper will cover a general topic from physics in
everyday life and bibliographic research. Students' papers and
reviews will also be discussed class. This course is designed for
those students who do not plan to major or minor in physics.
Grading will be based on active participation in class discussions, three (approx. weekly) short papers involving draft and
peer review (final paper and review graded) and one long
paper including a draft version corrected by the instructor.

a service agency or institution that they select. The placement
must be approved by course faculty and supervised by agency
staff. The course is designed to help students learn about
themselves in relation to a possible major or future career in
the human services.
The three-hour weekly seminar is devoted to discussions that
assist students in integrating agency experiences and readings
that explore the historical development of social welfare as an
institution and the nature and value system of social work as
a profession. Students will also examine and critique the manner in which social, economic, and political structures impact
diverse groups in society. Students will focus on their own
responsibilities in society, as well as examine their personal
value system in relation to special concerns, such as poverty
and the "isms." Detailed information will be sent to students

S WK 295-J
Intructor: Tony Bibus
This course will introduce students to social work practice in
the area of child welfare with special focus on the relationship
of child welfare laws, policies, and court to the lives of families and children. Students will study Minnesota statutes, meet
with key policy makers, observe court procedures, and discuss
practice and legal issues with child welfare social workers and
possibly with families and children as well. There will also be
opportunities to compare child welfare laws and practice in
the U.S. with those in Europe, especially Norway. The principles of permanency planning, family-centered practice, prevention and protection, and the twin goals in child welfare of
securing safety and nurturing children while preserving their
ties to their family will be examined. We will also explore
controversies and emerging issues in child welfare law such as
concurrent planning, "dual-track" service strategies, encouragement of the adoption of children of color by white families, and research related to the effects of poverty and oppression on the neglect of children's need. Students will analyze
the dynamic interplay of societal values, power, politics, facts
and myths as they manifest themselves in child welfare laws;
they will begin to form their own positions regarding an ideal
approach to supporting the welfare of children from a global
perspective. Evaluation of learning will be in the form of
assessments by instructors and students of the major paper or
project completed for the course.

Domestic abuse and terrorism. What are the dynamics underlying these and other forms of violence?What do they have in
common? How do they differ? This course takes violence in
its many forms as a topic for sociological analysis and concludes with an examination of non-violent alternatives. With
this in mind, we will compare different theoretical perspectives on violence, such as psychological, social psychological,
and socio-cultural perspectives. The course will involve a
combination of lecture and discussion based on readings and
videos, debate of current issues in the field, and guest speakers
from and field trips to local organizations dealing with problems of violence. Students will be expected to research, write
about, and present on the sociological dimensions of a particular form of violence. In addition, there will be short reaction

Topics: Discrimination, Harassment,
and Communication
SPC 295-J
Instructor: Robert Groven
If you keep sending poems to an old flame at work, are you
harassing them? If your boss tells racist jokes at a bar after
work, are they guilty of discrimination? Why are neo-Nazis
allowed to march through Jewish neighborhoods, but they
aren't allowed to hurl racial insults at co-workers?
Discrimination and harassment are in the headlines regularly,
but most people don't know what they really mean. What
kinds of communication constitute discrimination or harassment and why? This course covers all forms of illegal discrimination including gender, race, disability, religion, and sexual
orientation. It focuses on the legal approach to discriminatory
communication, but also examines the reactions of employers, employees, and organizations generally. This course uses
the "case method" teaching approach, where many specific
examples are studied to produce general conclusions. The
course involves role-playing, game-playing, debate, and writing. Course work includes a few short papers, one project, and
one test.

eneval Information
Introduction to Augsburg Weekend College
Purpose
I
I
Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults
who desire college experience but who work or have other commitments
during the week. It is a means by which men and women may earn a
bachelor's degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for
career change, or pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
The Augsburg Weekend College program is designed to meet the needs
and preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the
assumption that the men and women who enroll in Weekend College
will be mature, self-disciplined and well-motivated adult learners who
seek a balance of classroclm experience and individualized study. Each
course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated on-campus study
separated by time for independent study and class preparation.
Alternate Weekends
To accommodate this format for learning, classes meet on alternate
weekends for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday
morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon.* Each class selected
by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods.
Weekend College students may take from one to four different courses by
attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg Weekend College is participation in a
community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the
student is involved in a stable community that provides opportunity and
encouragement to become involved in interaction both in and out of the
classroom. This community will be enriched by the presence of both men
and women with a variety of work and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages
Weekend College students to make use of college facilities such as the
library and college center, to take the opportunity of having shared meals
and coffee breaks, to participate in optional lunchtime seminars, and to
attend other college activities such as music and dramatic presentations
and athletic events.
*Laboratory sections or additional class hours may be scheduled on evenings
during the week.

selected areas of professional work, and accomplish a higher level of
personal growth.

Major for Secondary Teaching Licensure in Social Studies
Students preparing to teach social studies on the high school level must
complete, in addition to the professional requirements to be met within
the Department of Education, a competency program designed to
provide a broad foundation in the social sciences. Students must
complete a major in one of five fields - Economics, History, Political
Science, Psychology or Sociology (the History major is described below)
plus 7 courses (ECO 112 or 113, Human Geography, HIS 222, POL 158,
PSY 105, SOC 121 and 336). Students considering a career in social
studies education should consult, as soon as possible, the Augsburg
Department of Education and the Social Studies Coordinator.
History Major: 8 courses plus 1seminar. At least four of these courses
must be upper division. A major must have at least one course (either
survey or upper level) from each of the four areas: Ancient and Medieval;
Modern Europe; U.S.; and non-Western.
English
Those who study English believe that an intense concern for words, ideas
and images helps us understand who we are and who we can become.
Writing helps us clarify and share our thoughts. Literature helps us
contemplate the pains and joys of human existence. Through English
study we see life's complexity, experience life as some others do, and
understand better the world in which we live and work.
English relates closely to other majors. With the other arts, English is
concerned with the pleasure that comes from artistic creation and with
the contemplation of works of art. With psychology and sociology,
English is concerned with individual and group behavior. With
philosophy, English is interested in ideas and the relation between
meaning and language. With science, English is interested in discovering
order and determining structures. With speech and communications,
English studies the effective use of language. With history and the other
social sciences and humanities, English studies the way people have
acted and thought at different times and in different cultures.
Major: 9 courses above 111, including 225; one course in American
literature; one course in Western literary tradition (271 or 272); and three
courses in British literature, one on literature before 1660 (for example, 331
or 438) and one that surveys a number of writers (336, 337, 423). Majors
are encouraged to take ENG 245 early in their college work and to consult
their departmental advisor regularly. A student with a double major or
special program that involves considerable work in the English
department should also work closely with an advisor in the department.
Note: Transfer students must take at least three of their English courses
at Augsburg.
English-Language ArtsTeaching Major: 10 courses, including those listed
under the major, a course in the English language, and an internship in
the teaching of writing. One course must include a component in nonWestern literature. In addition, the ACTC courses Communications Skills
in the English Classroom and Teaching Mass Media are required.
Courses in early American literature, Shakespeare, and film are
recommended. Several of the required courses, including the internship,
are not offered on weekends. Students in this program must work with
advisers in the English Department and the Education Department in
order to meet the professional requirements within the Education
Department as well as requirements in the major.
Students in this program who are transferring from other colleges should
consult the English department chair soon after enrolling.
Minor: 5 courses above 111including one course in British literature and
one writing course above the freshman level (223, 225, 226, or 227).
Management Information Systems (MIS)
This MIS major prepares students to work in the growing field of
information management. The major combines courses and skills from
both the business and computer science majors to help students learn
about the identification, organization, analysis and processing of
information in a business setting.

with no incompletes in courses offered for credit.
Probation and Dismissal
A student will be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term if
his or her achievement is unsatisfactory. Dismissal from the College is not
automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on Student Standing.
A student who has a poor academic record may be strongly advised to
withdraw before the end of the term. A student who has been on
probation for two terms and withdraws from the College voluntarily must
have special permission to re-enroll. See Augsburg College Catalog for
complete explanation.
Grading Procedures
Evaluation and Grading
Student achievement in courses is measured primarily by final
examinations. Shorter tests, written papers, oral reports, and other types
of evaluation also are used.
Most courses are offered with grading options - traditional grading on a
4.0 to 0.0 scale or the PasslNo Credit system, in which P means a grade of
2.0 or better and N means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0. Students
are cautioned to use the PIN grade option with care since some graduate
and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of Pgraded courses, or rank each as a "C." Transfer students are cautioned
that P-graded courses do not count in the requirement that 14
traditionally graded courses be earned at Augsburg in order to be
considered for graduation with distinction. See PIN limitations under
Graduation Requirements in the Augsburg College Catalog.
Certain courses are offered on one grading system only. Sociology 265 is
graded only on the PIN grading system and some education courses are
graded only on the PIN system or only on the traditional system. English
111is graded P or N, or 2.0-4.01N. Some other courses are graded only P,
1.0, N. Lifetime Sports are graded P1O.O.
In courses where this is a choice, students will be graded on the
traditional system unless they indicate on their registration that they wish
to use the PIN grading option. Any changes in choice of grading system
must be made according to dates published each term. A fee is charged
for any changes made after Registration.
Explanation of Grades
Number grades are used with these definitions:
4.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence
3.5
3.0 Achieves above basic course standards
2.5
2.0 Meets basic standards for the course
1.5
1.0 performance below basic course standards
0.5
0.0 Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course)
Grade of P (Pass) or N (No credit) are not computed in the grade point
average. A grade of P represents work at or above the 2.0 level; N
represents work at the 1.5 or below level.
An incomplete grade may be given only in the case of extreme
emergency, To receive it, a student must file a petition with the
Committee on Student Standing stating the reasons for the request, the
plan and date for removing it, and comments from the instructor. If
permission is granted, the incomplete must be removed during the
following semester, or it becomes the grade submitted by the teacher
along with the incomplete.
Internships, independent studies, and directed studies may sometimes
last longer than one term. When this is the case, they must be completed
by the grading deadlines within one year from the beginning of the first
term of registration. A grade of X is given by the instructor to indicate that
the study is extended. It is expected that students given X extensions will
continue to communicate with their instructors and demonstrate that
satisfactory progress is being maintained. The Registrar's Office will
automatically continue the registration in response to an X grade. A final
grade will be issued at the end of the term in whcih the work is
completed and evaluated (but not longer than one year). An instructor
reserves the discretion of not giving an X where satisfactory progress is
not demonstrated. Withdrawal from college, or dropping these continued
courses will terminate their registration. Under this circumstance, a reregistration as 1X by the student would be necessary if done during
registration periods within one year of initial registration; if done after
one year a new registration would be necessary.
Auditing Courses
Students who wish to take courses without credit or grade may do so by
registering for Audit (V). The charge for auditing a course is listed under
Fees and Payment Schedule. Students who audit a course should confer
with the instructor within two weeks of the beginning of the term to
determine expectations, attendance and any other requirement. If
expectations have been met, the course will be listed on the transcript as
having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the course will
be listed with a grade of W (Withdrawn).
Grade Point Average
The grade point average (GPA) is based on final grades for all work at
Augsburg. It does not include credit and grade points for work
transferred from other colleges. Courses taken on the PIN grading option
are recorded, but not computed in the GPA.
Classification
Students are classified in August and at the end of fall and winter terms.
Sophomores - 7 courses completed with at least 14 grade points.
Junior - 16 courses completed with at least 32 grade points.
Seniors - 25 courses completed with at least 50 grade points.
Withdrawal from College
Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are registered,
since this results in a failing grade on the official record. Cancellation of
courses or withdrawal from college must be done in the Registrar's Office.
Withdrawal from college cannot occur during final examination week
unless a petition is approved by the Student Standing Committee.
Withdrawal from college and resulting adjustments in accounts are
effective as of the date the completed Withdrawal From College form is
returned to the Registrar's Office.
Graduation with Distinction
Graduation with distinction is determined as follows:
Summa cum laude 3.8 to 4.0 cumulative GPA
Magna cum laude 3.6 up to but not including 3.8 cumulative GPA
Cum laude 3.3 up to but not including 3.6 cumulative GI'A
To qualify for graduation with distinction, transfer students must have
completed two years (14 traditionally graded courses) of work at
Augsburg .
Assessment of Previous Learning (APL)
Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in
many life situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit
recognition within the disciplines that compose the academic programs
of a liberal arts college. The APL program (Assessment of Previous
Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous
learning, other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward
the completion of a bachelor's degree.
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit
recognition at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two essential
criteria: (1)it is relevant to coursework in a field of study within the
Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and (2) it can be objectively
demonstratebeither.b_y_comprehensi~nex~or.~mmittee
evaluation. The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by
which students may have their previous learning assessed for credit
recognition:
--
CLEP (College Level Examination Program)
Students who achieve acceptable scores in CLEP exams may receive
academic credit in Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a
variety of general and specific subject areas. For more information,
contact Weekend College Admissions (330-1792) or the regional CLEP
center at the University of Minnesota (624-3323).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and do
not have transcript evidence of completed work may request a
departmental assessment of previous learning. This will most often
include an examination that covers the essential components of the
course involved. For more information, contact the Registrar's Office
(330-1036).
CAP (Credit Assessment Process)
This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee
completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the
student. Informal meetings and consultation are provided for students
who wish to prepare a portfolio of previous learning for credit
assessment. Students may apply for CAP after completing at least four
courses of academic work at Augsburg College with a cumulative GPA of
at least 2.5. For more information, contact the Registrar's Office (330-1036).

Introducing Augsburg College
Education
in a Real World
(C tt~dentscommonly speak of graduating from college
as a
L*'way of getting i n t ~"the real world!' In fact, Auphurg
College provides students with an education in a real world. The
diversity of the faculty, staff, and student body, the structure of
the curriculum, and the academic environment minor the camplexity of Life in contemporary society.
The College's location in and involvement with a metropolitan
setting offer continuous access to cultural opportunities, career
experiences, and social realities that enrich shtdents' educations.
Augsburg's commitment to the liberal arts recognizes that the
reality in which contemporary persons live and the persons
themselves have been shaped by the tradition and history horn
which they come. The real world was not made this morning, and
it is not simple. Only a broad education can present our world as
it is and give persons the ability to deal with it. Similar1y,
Augsburg College's continuing dedication to its heritage as a
college of the church affirms a belief that the world is the creation
of a loving God and that human persons are inescapably spiritual
beings.
The College Mission Statement
These qualities of an Augshrg education flow from its mission state
ment which declares that the College exists to provide high quality
educational opportunities which are based in the liberal arts and shaped
by the faith arid vaIues of the Christian church and by the context of a
great metropolitan center.
Augsburgs location in the heart d the city represents the loom on which
the multialored fabric of its idmtity has been woven. WhiIe students
are pmpafed to take a place in and make a contibution to the worId in
which they Iive, they are educated to be critical of the quality of life in
their society and to be reflective of their own d u e s as they respond to it.
"... based in the liberal arts"
The academic program emphasizes the continuing vaZiditg of the liberal
arts as a foundation for developing the Iife of the mind. Augsbmg
CoIIege's faculty are dedicaid to chatlengvlg their students to achiwe
the highest academic standards while supporting &em in that endeavor
with excenent teaching and individual attention
Students are expected to develop their abilities in critical thinking and
communicationand to gain sensitivity to and appreciation for their own
and other cultures. Each student is encouraged to contemplate the
eternal philosophical and spiritual questions of human life and of
personal values and ethics. At Augsburg the great scholars, thinkers,
writers, and artists of the past and present are studied and valued.
Augsbtrrg College considers art understandingof the content and
method of sdcnce, a arecognition of the place of technology,and an
understanding of ways to maintain a sound body as important elements
of a complete education.
This insistence on the breadth of a traditional liberal arts education
reflects a firm belief that human beings are more than their ability to
perfom a job. It reftwrs further a concerted attempt to direct students
toward a full development of the many facets and capacities of the
educated person.
"...within the context of a
great metropolitan center"
Yet, bounded as it is by an interslate freeway and the center of a vital city,
Augsburg CoLlege is no ivory tower escape from the real world. The
College community continually interacts with the city by attending
culhrral events and civic activities and by inviting dty residents and
visitors to the campus as lecturers, performers, and mmfms.The city
M ~ maslaboratory for experiential leaning through Internships,
professional field experiences, and Cooperative Education.
"...and shaped b y faith and values"
This involvement with the real world is a reflection of Augsburg's
spiritual heritage which values all that God has created. While its
tradition supports intellectual freedom in the search for truth, the
ColIege affirmsits belief that all students should reflect upon their
ethical and spiritual values as part of becoming educated. Students are
encouraged though religion courses and through opportunities on
campus for the practice and examination of spirituality to consider their
relationship to God, to others?to society, and to the world,
Traditionally Augsburg College has insisted that an aspect of these
relationships is contained in the motto: "Education for Service." In these
words the College expresses a belief that, whatever career they pursue,
graduates should consider the duty of citizens to contribute to the
common good through service to others.
w
ithin the larger community of the city and the world,
Augsburg College is its own community. It is a community of
support and collegiality composed of persons of diverse talents; of
varied ethnic, national, cultural, and religious backgrounds; and of
complementary interests and orientations. Through a competent, committed faculty and a dedicated staff, Augsburg College builds with its
students a real world in which the whole person can be educated and
developed.
About
Augsburg
A College of the Church
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by N o r w e a n Lutherans in
America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in
Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September 1869, in
MarshalI, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The first college
students 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 dearly articulated the direction of
Augsburg: toeducateNorwegianLutherans to minister lo immigrants;and
to provide such "coI1eg-e" studies tha t would prepare studentsfor theoIogical study.
In 1874they proposed a three part pram 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.
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 one hundred years.
Education for Service
Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist" college, GeorgSverdrup, 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 leadersformed the Friendsof Augsburg, later called
the Lutheran Free Church. The church was a group of independent congregations committed to congregationalautonomy and personal Christianity.
This change made Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the
small Lutheran body. But the collegedivision was still important primarily
as an attachment to the seminary.
The Focus Changes
This attitude began to change after World War I. In 1911Georg SverdrupJr.
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 52 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 Bemhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly teacher,
to be president (1938-1962).His involvementin ecumenical and civic circles
made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city life.
After World War 11,Augsburg leadersmade 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.
Accreditation for the College
Augsburg added departments essential to a liberal arts college, offeringa
modem college program based on general education requirements and
elective majors. With cursimlum change came a long effort to become
accredited.
The College reached full accreditation in 1954, although many alumni had
entered graduate schools and teaching positions long before that time.
A study in 1962 defined the College's mission now as serving the good
society as a whole first, and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church
second. The Seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther
Northwestern Seminary)in St. Paul in 1963.
A College in the City
President Oscar A. Anderson (1963-1980)continued Augsburg's emphasis
on involvement with the city. He wanted to reach out to non-traditional
student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all p p l e .
During his years of leadership the College became a vita1 and integral part
of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg added the Music Hall, Mortensen
Tower, Umess Tower, the C o Z l e ~Center, Ice Arena and PsychoIogy
Building.
Since 1980 Augsbwg has been Ied by Charles S.Anderson We has continued Augsburg's commitment to the value of a libera1 arts education,
emphasizingdiversityin enrollment efforts, spiritual growth and freedom
and an academic program that draws on the Esources of the city as
extensions of the campus and classroom.
Serving the Non-traditional Student
Aupburg's American M i a n Program is recognized as mc~essful.The
program has had the highest retention rate of W a n studentsin Minnesota
-=me 85 percent.The Black Student Support Program, initiated in 1969,
has had a growing number ofstudents and supports a Black Student Union
and a newspaper distributed by the office.
The campus is accessible to the physimlly handicapped with a skywaytunnel-elevator system connecting ten major buildings. In only its second
year, Augsburg's program for the learning disabled had 30 students enrolled. The program received a state award for excellence.
Weekend College, started in 1982 with 69 students, had an enrollment of
over SO0 in fa11 1988. Through Weekend College, adult students can work
M l i m e and pursuea bachelor's degree that has a practicalfocus on a liberal
arts base.
In January of 1987 Augsburg initiated a Master of Arts in Leadership
program. As in Weekend College, students can work full-time and take
graduate courses leading to a master's degree.
These programs bring working add& to the campus. They are comple
mented by the College's Cooperative Education Progsam Cbegun in 19%)
that places Augsburg students into paid work experiences. Tfte Co-op
Education Program helps s tadents get career experience in additiun to their
classroom studies.
Augsburg Today
Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the
founders who believed:
Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community

learning laboratory for Augsburg students.

Your Education
A
11 students receive financial help indirectly, since a quality
liberal arts education costs more than tuition and fees
cover. The College raises that difference in gifts - from alumni,
faculty, staff, parents, church, friends, foundations, a n d endowment income.
However, the primary responsibility for paying for a college
education rests on students and their families. Financial aid is
intended to supplement those resources.

Financial Aid
Financing higher education could be the most significant investment a
person or family makes in a lifetime. So, proper planning and wise choices
are important, not only in choosing a college, but also in the methods used
to pay for it. Augsburg College, through its Office of Student Financial
Services, will help students and their families with both monetary and
advisory assistance to protect access to a quality education in spite of increasing costs.
Financial assistance awarded through Augsburg is a combinationof scholarships, grants, loans, and part-time work opportunities. The College
cooperates with federal, state, church, and private agencies in providing
various aid programs. For the academicyear 1986-87approximately 85%of
all students at Augsburg received scholarships, grants, loans and part-time
employment totalling over $7,200,000 from all aid sources.
The primary responsibility for financing a college education rests upon the
student and family. Financial aid is intended to supplement student and
family resources.
The Family Financial Statement (FFS) of the American College Testing
Program (ACT)or the Financial Aid Form (FAF)of the College Scholarship
Service (CSS)helps determine the amount of assistance for which a student
is eligible. This analysis estimates the amount a student and family can be
expected to provide for college expenses, taking into account such family
financial factors as current income, assets, number of dependents, other
educational expenses, debts, retirement needs, and special considerations.

college life, but learning and development also occur in
formal and informal activities of the College and the metropolitan
area. Whether students are residents or commuters, the climate
for learning and living at Augsburg will add dimension to their
education.
Campus Ministry
As a college of the church, we are concerned about spiritual as well as
academic and social growth. Our concern for spiritual growth is evident in
the opportunities we encourage and provide for students to explore their
own faith.
Sinceour campusis comprised of individualsfrom many different religious
and cultural backgrounds, our worship life is characterized by a similar
diversity and richness of tradition. Bible studies, fellowship groups, outreach teams, planning committees, retreats, peace and justice forums,
hunger conferences, concerts, plays and movies are examples of the wide
variety of activities on campus.
This ministry finds its most visible expression in chapel worship where
students, faculty and staff gather each day to give thanks and hear the
Gospel proclaimed by a number of speakers and musicians. Each Wednesday night students gather for Holy Communion.
We seek to develop a free and open environment where people are encouraged to use and discover the gifts that God has given them. As a college of
the church, we encourage students to form their own values which will be
the basis for the kind and quality of life that reaches beyond their years at
Augsburg.

counseling, consultation, support or information.

Academic
Information
A
ugsburg College constructs its curriculum upon the premise
that students must be educated as full human persons: intellectually, spiritually, and physically. To act effectively, human beings must
have a broad grasp of the world from which they have come as well as
the world in which they live. By providing courses in the humanities,
natural sciences, and social sciences, the general education cumculum
introduces students to the breadth and complexity of knowledge and
culture.
Required courses in religion are designed to acquaint students with the
Christian tradition and encourage them to reflect upon the importance
and meaning of spirituality in their lives. Recreation courses offer
students the opportunity to develop skills for participation in exercise
and sporting activities.
Students choose from over forty major areas of study to gain a depth of
knowledge in a discipline and to prepare for a career or further study.
Thus, through a balance of curricular activities supported by full programs in student life and religious life, an Augsburg College education
strives to educate its students in a real world for the real world.
