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 3'12
weeks, attendance at every class is imperative. It is expected
that students will attend every class period; however, each
instructor will establish the precise attendance policy for
hislher course. 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. 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 credits. 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
(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
($1,497) per course credit. If they do so they may take only
1.0 additional course credits in Weekend College for winter
trimester.
It is the policy ofAugsburg College not to discriminate on the basis of race, creed,
national or ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required by
Title IX of the 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, in its admissions policies, educational
programs, activities and employment practices.
Options
International Interim-Students are invited to be part of
one of the 25 international Interim courses offered by the
Upper Midwest Association for Intercultural Education
(UMAIE). These course opportunities are listed near the
end of this catalog.
Internships deadline-Friday, December 12. 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 Internship
Office (Murphy Place, Rm. 8) no later than the last day of fall
classes (Friday, December 12). 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 your internship is available in the Internship and Cooperative Education'Office.
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 Registrar's Office.
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 can be consulted 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 genera1 education 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 $1,497 for the Interim
course. Students interested in registering for an Augsburg
Interim should write to the Registrar's Office for application
forms or use the forms provided by the Interim office at their
own school. There is an application processing fee of $10.
Students are welcome to stay on campus but are not required
to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be made to the
Residence Life Office.
It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor
visiting students may register for 199,299,399 or 499 courses.

We will use a few historically, economically, and medically
important plants to study some of the ways in which humans
and plants interact, biologically and otherwise. Plants are not
only at the bottom of our food chain but also play a part in
non-food aspects of our lives, either directly (e.g., medicines,
fibers, dyes) or indirectly (e.g., how food crises have influenced
human migrations). We will study the uses, biology, natural
history and classification of several important plants.
Evaluation will be based on three or four 40-minute exams,
several quizzes and an oral presentation.

Chemistry for Changing Times
CHM 100-1
lnstructoc 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 greenhouse 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 total score of total points on the daily quizzes.

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 on
the basis of a series of programming projects. CSC 373 is a
continuation of CSC 273.

Personal Economics
EGO 495-1
Instructor: Satya Gupta
This course will examine, understand and analyze three
aspects of quality life-worldly assets, physical health and the
self. Quality life is defined by many people in terms of the
amount of money one has. The more money one has, the
more command on commodities one can enjoy. We work hard
most of our lives to fulfill our dreams of having a large home,
fancy car, boat, vacation home, education for our children and
enjoyable retirement. We plan a great deal for all these dreams.
It is surprising that we plan 30 or 40 years from now. It is also
true that at some point in life one asks oneself "Who am I
really?" and "What am I here for?" In this third component of
the course we shall critically reflect on our values, ethics and
self-understanding. Knowledge of the self leads us to a higher
plane of thinking and behaving. Thus, we shall try to construct
a well-balanced portfolio of quality life. Students will find the
course very interesting, thought provoking and challenging.
Grades will be based on three quizzes, one paper and discussions in class.

Topics: Writing About the Arts
in the Twin Cities
ENG 282-U482-Z
Instructor: Bob Cowgill
This course is predicated on the assumption that immersion
in all the arts benefits a writer's investigation of any specific
art; or, in other words, that before you become a specialist, it
helps to become a passionate generalist. The class will balance
two related goals: first, to experience and talk about as many
contemporary Twin Cities cultural happenings as is practicable (we will search out and encounter the most exciting, controversial and significant programs in theater, dance, gallery
exhibition, music and film); second, to examine critical methods of observation and reception of art and consider ways in
which writers can enhance the public's understanding and
interaction with artistic culture. Students will keep a critic's
journal, write four short papers and take a final exam.
Students registering under English 482 will have to develop a
10 page critical project in conjunction with one art event that
occurs during the course's span. To register, students must
have successfully completed English 111, must have the willingness, the money and the time to attend events and to
transport themselves to various cultural locations throughout
the Twin Cities.

ENG 282-P/482-P
Instructor: John Mitchell
This course will provide an introductory survey of contemporary American poetry by poets whose work has come into
prominence since World War I1 or mid-century. Emphasis
will be given to the vision and sensibility of each poet and to
the themes of their poems, especially those images and statements that concern philosophical, historical, psychological
and cultural values. Through comparison and contrast, students will be expected to formulate reasonable interpretations
of selected poets and poems and to express their discoveries
in class discussion and short papers. A final examination will
be given and two interpretive papers about three to five pages
in length will be assigned. For Upper Division credit, the student will also read and give a written class report on a book
that discusses contemporary poetry or a contemporary poet;
this choice, based upon recommendations, must be approved
by the instructor.

How accurate is our understanding of the past? How do we
attempt to secure that understanding? Why is history biased?
Can there be history without bias? Should history have entertainment as a goal? These questions, and others, form the basis
for an inquiry into the writing of history and the portrayal of
historical characters, events and themes depicted in the cinema. Filmmakers have presented history in ways ranging from
the mundane to the sublime. In this course we will view selected films and through readings, lectures and discussions examine some of the successes and failures of "History by
Hollywood." This course is intended for first-year students.

Science and Religion
HON 401-1
lnstructor: Mark Engebretson
For some in our society science is the driving engine of a better, more secure life and the basis for a philosophy of life. For
others, science and its associated technologies, along with its
invitation to become a global world view, constitute a grave
threat. This course will address these matters in two ways.
First, it will begin with a historical overview of the relations
between science and the Christian faith, emphasizing three
periods: the origins of the Christian faith, the development of
"modern" science and mechanistic philosophy, and the reevaluation of science and nature in the twentieth century.
Second, it will study systematically the world views of science
and religion to see how they compare.
Class time will be divided among lectures, discussions, small
group tutorials and an extended simulation exercise in developing a space colony. Course evaluation will be based on two short
exams, participation in small group tutorials based on assigned
readings, a group project presentation and a major synthesis
paper based on the group project and course materials.

Universals of Language
LIN 290-1
Instructor: John Schmit
Is our ability to use language acquired by learning, or is it present from birth? What do all languages have in common
despite their obvious differences? How can learning a foreign
language be so frustrating for adults, while young children
learning their native language seem to be having fun?
Questions such as these have fascinated people throughout
history, and recent developments in linguistics have begun to
provide some credible answers. The purpose of this course is
to survey the most remarkable findings in this area and
engage in some principled speculation as to what they mean.
This course is open to all students with a healthy curiosity
about language. No other prerequisite. There will be two tests
and a short paper for class presentation.

Topics/Discrete Mathematics
MAT 481-1
Instructor: Su Doree
Explore the discrete side of mathematics as we consider questions such as ....How many phone numbers start with the 612
area code? What's the shortest route between two cities using
scheduled flights? The term "discrete" refers to separate, distinct
objects such as the whole numbers. Kenneth Rosen, a mathematician at Bell Labs, in the introduction to his text Discrete
Mathematics and Its Applications, explains that ... discrete
mathematics is used whenever objects are counted, when relationships between finite sets are studied and when processes
involving a finite number of steps are analyzed. A key reason
for the growth in the importance of discrete mathematics is
that information is stored and manipulated by computing
machines in a discrete fashion. The course is a rigorous introduction to discrete mathematics including topics such as sets,
logic,,functions, recursions, combinatorics, elementary probability theory and graph theory (as in networks). Algorithmic
thinking and mathematical reasoning is emphasized throughout the course. This course will be a useful and interesting
complement to calculus and continuous mathematics. The
course is intended for students pursuing a mathematics major
or a computer science major with a mathematics minor.
Students are expected to be at least a little familiar with theoretical mathematics and proof. No specific computer experience is expected. Evaluation is based on three examinations
and a small portfolio of homework problems. Please contact
Su Dorke for further information.

HISTORY
OF
WEEKEND
COLLEGE
In fall of 1982 Augsburg
began Weekend College
under the directorship of
Dr. Rick Thoni. At that time
Weekend College had three
majors, 69 students, and
offered eight courses in the
first term.
Today with more than 1,000
students and 13 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 from
the work world. The Weekend
College student body is
involved in student government, and Weekend College
students participate in academic and extracurricular
activities such as the student
newspaper, travel seminars,
and the Weekend College
Commission.
Augsburg Weekend College
continues to develop to meet
the changing needs of the adult
and nontraditional student of
today.
PURPOSE
Augsburg Weekend College
provides an educational alternative to adults who desire
college experience but who
work or have other commitments during the week. It is a
means by which men and
women may earn a baccalaureate degree, gain skills for
professional advancement,
prepare for career change, or
pursue a personal interest in
one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
MISSION
OF THE
COLLEGE
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 of
sewice in 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.
THEADULTAS LEARNER A COMMUNITYOF
LEARNERS
Augsburg Weekend College is
designed to meet the needs
and preferences of adult
learners. The program is based
on the assumption that the
men and women who enroll in
Weekend College will be
mature, self-disciplined and
well-motivated adult learners
who seek a balance of classroom experience and
individualized study. Each
course is therefore divided
into periods of concentrated
on-campus study separated by
time for independent study
and class preparation.
To accommodate this format
for learning, classes generally
meet on alternate weekends
for three and one-half hours
on either Friday evening,
Saturday morning, Saturday
afternoon or Sunday afternoon. Each course selected by
the student involves commitment to one of these four class
periods. Laboratory sections or
additional class hours may be
scheduled during the week.
Weekend College students
may take from one to four
courses each term.
Essential to the goals of
Augsburg's Weekend College is
participation in a community of
adult learners. Learning can be
enhanced when the student is
active in a stable community
that provides opportunity and
encouragement for involvement
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 the Christensen
Center, to take the opportunity
of having shared meals and
coffee breaks, to participate in
optional lunch-time seminars,
and to attend other college
activities such as music and
dramatic presentations and
athletic events.
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 their
teaching to be the focus of their
activity. Faculty are involved in
social, professional and a variety
of research activities, but see
these activities as supporting
their teaching. They are actively
involved in an exciting faculty
development program which
introduces them to current
thought in many fields but
especially in teaching 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.
History
Augsburg College and
Seminary was founded in
1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin,
and moved to Minneapolis in
1872. In 1963, the name officially became Augsburg
College when the Seminary
left campus as part of the
Lutheran Free Church merger
with the American Lutheran
Church.
Location
Augsburg's 23-acre campus is
in the heart of the Twin Cities
metropolitan area, only blocks
from downtown Minneapolis
and the intersection of Interstate
Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent
to the campus are the Riverside
E d u c a t i o n a l
P r o g r a m L 4
Medical Center, the West Bank
campus of the University of
Minnesota and the Mississippi
River parkways.
Campus
Augsburg's campus consists
of 15 major buildings which
include student housing
towers, the College Center,
main academic and administrative halls, the Library,
Music Hall and the Foss
Center for Worship, Drama
and Communication.
Accessibility
We have made a major effort
to become one of the most
accessible campuses in the
region. Our skyway-tunnel
system lets you reach any of 10
major buildings without going
outside. In addition to building
changes, we have a student-run
program to increase awareness
and provide extra help for
students with disabilities.
Church Affiliation
Augsburg is a college of The
Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America. Although a strong
plurality of students are Lutheran,
20 percent represent other
Protestant denominations and
21 percent represent the Roman
Catholic Church. Several other
affiliations are represented
among students and faculty.
POLICIES
It is the policy of Augsburg
College not to discriminate on
the basis of race, color, creed,
religion, sexual or affectional
preference, national or ethnic
origin, age, marital status, sex
or status with regard to public
assistance or disability, as
required by Title IX of the
1972 Educational Amendments
or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended,
in its admissions policies,
education programs, activities
and employment practices.
Inquiries regarding compliance may be directed to the
coordinators listed on pages
249 of the 1994-1996
Augsburg catalog, or to the
Director of the Minnesota
Department of Human Rights,
Bremer Tower, Seventh Place
at Minnesota Street, St. Paul,

included with the application or
discussed personally with the

Transfer Credit
Augsburg College welcomes
students who wish to transfer
after completing work at 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 of credit from twoyear colleges once a student
has reached junior status. If all
transfer work has been taken
at a two-year college, a
maximum of 17 Augsburg
courses, or 96 quarter credits,
will be accepted toward the
minimum of 33 Augsburg
course credits required for the
baccalaureate degree.
Transfer Credit Evaluations
An evaluation of transfer
credit is completed by the
Registrar upon admission for
each degree-seeking student
who is transferring previous
college work. This evaluation
indicates which of the
student's courses have been
accepted for transfer credit at
Augsburg College, and how
many course credits the
student has earned in transfer.
The Registrar also determines
which transfer courses may be
used to fulfill general education requirements, and may
request that the student
provide course descriptions,
syllabi or other information to
assist in this determination.
For an evaluation of transfer
courses toward major, minor
or licensure requirements, the
student should consult the
appropriate department chair.
Augsburg graduates and
students who have not
attended Weekend College for
more than one academic year
(three trimesters) must apply
for readmission through the
Registrar's Office. Students
who have attended any other
institution(s) during their
absence from Augsburg must
have an official transcript sent
from each institution to the

LOANASSISTANCE
Federal Stafford Student
Loans
Subsidized and Unsubsidized
Stafford Loan funds are
obtained directly from a local
lender or state i~gcacyin states
which provide such programs.
Subsidized Stafford loans are
need-based loans which the
federal government subsidizes
by paying accrued interest
while in school and during the
grace period. Therefore, the
borrower is not responsible for
interest accrued while in
school or during the six-month
grace period.
Interest begins accruing on the
date of disbursement for the
Unsubsidized Stafford Loan
A i d
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
be capitalized (added to the
balance of the loan).
The interest rate for borrowers
through the Subsidized and
Unsubsidized Stafford Loan is
variable with a cap of 8.25
percent and changes annually
based on the 91-Day Treasury
Bill. The following borrowing
limits apply to the Stafford
Loan program:
Freshmen: $2,625 annually
($6,625 combined Subsidized
& Unsubsidized Stafford)
Sophomores: $3,500 annually
($7,500 combined Subsidized
& Unsubsidized Stafford)
Juniordseniors: $5,500 annually

(excluding summer) are
considered inactive and must
file an Application for
Re-admission form with the
Office of the Registrar in order
to resume their academic
program. Students are responsible for keeping the Office of
the Registrar informed of their
mailing address.
SYLLABUS
A syllabus is a course outline
written by the instructor which
may include a course description
and objectives, required text(s),
course schedule, grading criteria
and assignments. A syllabus is
especially important in Weekend
College because it advises the
student of any assignment due
the first class weekend. Students
are responsible for picking up
the course syllabus at the times
published in The Weekender,
the Weekend College informational publication.
EVALUATIONAND
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 scale or the
Pass/No Credit system, in
which P means a grade of 2.0
or better and N means no
credit and a grade of less than
2.0. Students who choose the
P/N option are cautioned:
In order to receive a grade
of P, a student must achieve
at least a grade of 2.0.
Some graduate and professional schools do not look
favorably on a large number
of P-graded courses, or rank
each as a "C".
P-graded courses do not
count toward the requirement that 14 traditionally
graded course credits be
earned at Augsburg in order
to be considered for graduation with distinction.
Transfer students should be
especially aware of this
requirement.
See P/N limitations under
Graduation Requirements on
page 28.
Note: Certain courses are
offered on one grading system
only (e.g., Lifetime Sports are
graded P/N only).
In courses where there is a
choice, students will be graded
on the traditional system
unless they indicate on their
registration that they wish to
use the P/N 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 the
published deadline for dropping without record notation.
I n f o r m a t i o n .
NUMERIC
GRADES
Numeric grades are used with
these definitions:
4.0 Achieves highest
standards of excellence
3.0 Achieves above basic
course standards
2.5
2.0 Meets basic standards
for the course
1.0 Performance below basic
course standards
0.5
0.0 Unacceptable performance
(no credit for the course)
Grades of P (Pass) or N (No
credit) are not computed in the
grade point average.
An incomplete grade (I) may
be given only in the case of
extreme emergency. To
receive an incomplete grade, a
student must receive permission of the instructor, and
must file a form with the
Registrar's Office stating the
reasons for the request, the
work required to complete the
course, the plan and date for
completing the work, and
comments from the instructor.
The necessary work must be
completed in enough time to
allow evaluation of the work
by the instructor and filing of
a grade before the final day of
the following trimester. If the
work is not completed by that
date, the grade for the course
becomes a 0.0.
Internships, Indepzndent
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.
A final grade will be issued at
the end of the term in which
the work is completed and
evaluated (but not longer than
one year). An instructor has
the option of not giving an X
where satisfactory progress is
not demonstrated.
A course in which a grade of
0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or N has been
received may be repeated for
credit. Courses in which
higher grades have been
earned may not be repeated
for credit and a grade, but may
be audited. All courses taken
and grades earned each term
remain on the academic
record. Only the credits and
grades earned the second time,
for legitimately repeated
courses, are counted toward
graduation and in the grade
point average.
AUDITINGCOURSES
Students who wish to take
courses without credit or grade
may do so by registering for
Audit (V). The charge for
auditing is listed in the current
year's Weekend College
Catalog Supplement. The
signature of the instructor is
required to register an audit.
Students who audit a course
should confer with the
instructor two weeks prior to
the beginning of the term to
determine expectations, attendance and any other
requirements. 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).
Courses for which transfer
credit has been awarded may
not be repeated for credit at
Augsburg. This includes
courses which are substantially similar despite different
titles or emphases.
GRADEPOINTAVERAGE
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 P/N
grading option are recorded,
but not computed in the GPA.
The formula for computing the
GPA is:
GPA = Total grade points
divided by number of course
credits attempted."
* Using traditionally graded
course credits only.
CLASSIFICATION
Student classifications are
updated in August and at the
end of the Fall Trimester.
Sophomores - Seven course
credits completed.
Juniors - 16 course credits
completed.
Seniors -24 course credits
completed.
ACADEMIC
PROGRESS,
~ROBAT~O
AND
N
DISMISSAL
The College requires that
students maintain the
following cumulative grade
point averages (GPA):
Freshman - A student who
has taken fewer than seven
credits with a cumulative GPA
of 1.6 or higher
Sophomore - A student who
has taken fewer than 16
credits with a cumulative GPA
of 1.7 or higher
Junior - A student who has
taken fewer than 24 credits
with a cumulative GPA of 1.9
or higher
Senior - A student who has
taken 24 or more credits with
a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or
higher.
It should be noted that a
minimum GPA of 2.0 is
required for graduation with
certain majors requiring a
higher minimum GPA.
Students whose academic
achievement falls below these
guidelines will either be placed
on scholastic probation at the
end of the term, will be
continued on probation, or will
be dismissed from the College.
In addition, a freshman who
receives two zero grades or a
sophomore who receives three
zero grades will be considered
for probation or dismissal.
However, dismissal from the
College is not automatic. Each
case is reviewed by the
Committee on Student
Standing. Evidence of the
student's commitment to academic progress is the major
consideration in deciding
whether or not to dismiss a
student. Those on probation
who voluntarily withdraw from
'the College, as well as those
who are dismissed, must have
special permission to re-enroll.
Students may be removed
from probation when the
cumulative GPA reaches the
minimum level stated above.
Students placed on probation
as freshmen for having earned
two zero grades may be
removed from probation if
their classification changes to
sophomore, if they have not
earned additional zero grades,
and if their cumulative GPA
reaches 1.7. Students placed
on probation as sophomores
for having earned three zero
grades may be removed from
probation if their classification
changes to junior and their
cumulative GPA reaches 1.9.
The College reserves the right
to dismiss any student who
does not meet the guidelines
stated above. Once a student is
dismissed, he or she may
appeal the decision within 10
days to the Committee on
Student Standing.
DEAN'S
LIST
The Dean's List is compiled
after each trimester, listing
students whose grade point
average for a trimester is 3.5
or better. Students must be
full-time (a minimum two full
course credits for a Weekend
College student), graded on
the traditional grading system,
with no incompletes in courses
offered for credit. If permission is given by the student, an
announcement is sent to the
hometown newspaper of each
student on the Dean's List.
ASSESSMENT
OF
PREVIOUS
LEARNING
(APL) PROGRAM
Augsburg College recognizes
that learning can and does take
place in many life situations.
Some of this learning may be
appropriate for credit recognition within the disciplines that
compose the academic
program of a liberal arts
college. The Assessment of
Previous Learning (APL)
program at Augsburg
provides a means by which a
student's previous learning,
other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented
for examination for possible
credit toward the completion
of a baccalaureate degree.
Not all learning from life
experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition at
a liberal arts college. Such
learning must meet two essential criteria: 1) it is relevant to
course work in a field of study
within the Augsburg liberal
arts curriculum and 2) it can
be objectively demonstrated
either by comprehensive
examination or committee
evaluation.
The APL program at
Augsburg provides several
means by which students may
have their previous learning
assessed for credit recognition.
The following is a brief
description of each of these
means of assessment:
The College Level
Examination Program
(CLEP)
This is a series of standardized
tests which have been developed by the College Board
and are offered to students for
a small fee at regional testing
centers. (The regional testing
center for this area is the
University of Minnesota.)
Students who score at or
above the 65th percentile on a
subject examination may
receive academic credit for
that subject at Augsburg
College. Additional information about CLEP tests is
available from the Office of
the Registrar.
Departmental
Comprehensive Exams
These are available for students
to use in obtaining credit for
previous learning if the
following conditions are met:
There is a departmental
instrument available for the
subject area in question.
There is a faculty member
designated by the department to administer the
exam.
The Registrar approves the
student's request to take the
exam. Credit for departmental exams is available on
a passlno credit basis only,
and there is a charge per
exam of one-half of tuition
for a full course credit.
The Portfolio Assessment
Program
This is a credit assessment
alternative in which a faculty
team completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio
submitted by the student. The
faculty team is composed of
two faculty members from
fields of study directly related
to the student's previous
learning. Students who wish to
prepare a portfolio of previous
learning for credit assessment
should consult the Off

Topics in Literature: The Heroic Journey Griffin
This course will study archetypal patterns of the
heroic journey as well as specific examples of such
journeys. It will emphasize the ideas of Joseph
Campbell but will also consider other
interpretations of heroic journeys. Since western
civilization usually assumes that the hero is a man,
usually white and belonging to a warrior class,
analysis of the heroic warrior myth, both as it is
depicted in ancient and medieval epics and myths
and as it appears in contemporary American
popular narratives, will be explored. But the heroic
journey is a human journey, and thus the course
will also emphasize the heroic journeys of women
and men who may be neither white nor warriors.

A Greeting
from the
President
Welcome to Augsburg College
from all of us who teach, study
and work here. It is always a
pleasure to introduce the
Augsburg experience to prospective students and to welcome
new and returning students.
Some people refer to us as "the
small town campus in the heart of
the city." That phrase does indeed
capture our character and our
strength as a college. Augsburg is
an affordable, quality liberal arts
college of the church, a place
where people know and care
about you. Here you can also gain
"real world" experience to complement your education - before
you enter the workplace for the
first time.
The College continues to grow
and build on its long tradition of
academic excellence. I invite you
to become a part of the Augsburg
experience by joining this caring
and diverse community of learners and teachers.
I look forward to meeting you
on campus.
Sincerely,
Charles S. Anderson, Ph.D.
President

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.
Select from 50 majors
Augsburg offers more than 50 majors or you can create your own major either on
campus or through the Associated Colleges
of the Twin Cities (ACTC). (See page 49 for
a complete list of majors and minors.) This
five-college consortium allows students to
take courses on other campuses without
charge. The ACTC includes Augsburg
College, Harnline University, Macalester
College, the University of St. Thomas, and
the College of St. Catherine.
We emphasize values, perspectives,
experience and skills
The heart of an Augsburg education is
the Augsburg Curriculum - the College's
general education program that structures
your liberal arts studies through challenging and thought-provoking courses that
require 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 t h d u n g 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 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

-
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, Georg 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 52 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 one hundred 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. But the college division was still
important primarily as an attachment to
the s ~ m i n a ~ .
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
Serninarv) in St. Paul in 1963.
About Auasbura l1
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
Tower, Umess Tower, the Christensen
Center, Ice Arena and Murphy Place.
Dr. Charles S. Anderson has led the
College since 1980. He guides 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.
Augsburg continues to grow under his
leadership. Some of the accomplishments
during his tenure include instituting three
graduate degree programs, hosting
national and international figures at
College-sponsored forums and events,
increased accessibility, and the addition of
the Foss Center for Worship, Drama and
Communication and the Oscar Anderson
Residence Hall.
Augsburg continues to reflect the
commitment and dedication of the
founders who believed:
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;
The city -with all its excitement,
challenges and diversity - is an unequaled
learning laboratory for Augsburg students.
Augsburg is a quality liberal arts
institution set in the heart of a great
metropolitan center. There are now more
than 13,000 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 a traditional undergraduate liberal arts and sciences "day" program,
Augsburg offers a Weekend College
program for nontraditional students and
master's degree programs in social work,
leadership and education-leadership.
CAMPUS LOCATION
Augsburg's campus is located in the
heart of the Twin Cities, surrounding
Murphy Square, the first of 155 parks in
Minneapolis, the "City of Lakes." The
University of Minnesota West Bank
campus and one of the city's largest
medical centers -Riverside Medical
Center - is adjacent to the campus, with
the Mississippi River and the Seven
Comers theater district just a few blocks
away. Downtown Minneapolis and St.
Paul, home to a myriad of arts, sports,
entertainment and recreation opportunities, are just minutes west and east via
Interstate 94, whch forms the southern
border of the campus. (See map in back.)
Convenient bus routes run throughout
the city and connect with the suburbs.
Reaching the Twin Cities is easy. Most

or train connections can be made from all
areas of the United States.

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.

xperiences in the classroom are an
impo&t 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 gfts 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 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 activities, 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 which serve the student community. Hundreds of major programming
Student Life
efforts and targeted activities for specific
student interests are generated through
these efforts and make Augsburg a dynamic
and enjoyable interactive environment.
Throughout the year, a variety of social
and cultural activities take 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
Augsburg 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 Umess 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 Deparbnent and have the
opportunity to attend a series of on-campus
workshops with visiting arts professionals.
INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS
Augsburg is affiliated with the Minnesota Intercollegate Athletic Conference
(MIAC) and is a member of the National
Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA)
Division IU.Men annually compete in
football, soccer, cross country, basketball,
ice hockey, wrestling, baseball, tennis, track
and field and golf. Women annually compete in volleyball, cross country, soccer,
basketball, ice hockey, softball, tennis, track

When Augsburg announced on Feb. 17,
1995 that it was adding women's ice hockey
as a varsity sport, it became the first college
or university in Minnesota to do so. The
women's ice hockey program at Augsburg
offers participants the same opportunities
that the men's program receives.
INTRAMURALS
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
At Augsburg, sports are for the average
student as well as the intercollegiate
athlete. The campus offers on a space
available basis a double-rink ice arena,
gymnasium, six tennis courts, a fitness
center with workout machines and weight
room, and an air supported dome over the
athletic field for winter fitness use by

ALSO O N
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.
Since one Interim course equals a full-time load, students
should plan to spend the sanie amount of time in class and
preparing for class as they would for a four-course load during Fall or Spring semesters. 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.
It is expected that students will attend every class period;
however, each instructor will establish the precise attendance
policy for hislher 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 the
student 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.
To graduate, a student under the 34 course Liberal Arts
Perspective requirements is required to complete two
Interim courses, but three Interim courses may count
toward graduation.
For any student entering after January 1993, a maximum of
two Interim course credits may be counted toward the 33
total course credits required for graduation. The number of
required Interim courses is adjusted for transfer students.
Transfer students should refer to their transfer credit evaluation form, or consult the Registrar. Additional Interim credits
which can count toward the 33 course credits required may be
taken by students who repeat a course for credit in which a
grade below 2.0 was earned, or who need to make up for a
regular term in which they failed or withdrew from a course.
Additional Interim courses not counted toward the 33 course
credits required may be used to fulfill other degree requirements. That is, no more than two Interim course credits may
be taken for credit toward 33, but additional Interim courses
may be used to fulfill major, minor or general education
requirements.
Day School students (3.0 credits or more for Fall) can take a
total of 1.0 course credits. 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 (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
($1,420.00) per course credit. If they do so they may take only
1.0 additional course credits in Weekend College for Winter
Trimester.
It is the policy ofAugsburg College not to discriminate on the basis of race, creed,
notional or etlirtic origin, age, niarital status, sex or handicap as required by
Title IX ofthe 1972 Educotiotial Atnetidmenis or Section 504 ofthe
Rehnbiliiation Act 011973, as otiietided, it1 its adn~issionspolicies, educotiotlol
programs, activities and eniploynietrt practices.
International Interim - Students are invited to be part of
one of the 24 international Interim courses offered by the
Upper Midwest Association for Intercultural Education
(UMAIE). These course opportunities are listed near the
end of this catalog.
Internships deadline - Friday, December 13. 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 Internship
Office (Murphy Place, Rm. 8) no later than the last day of Fall
classes (Friday, December 13). 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 your internship is available in the Internship and Cooperative Education Office.
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 Registrar's Office.
Interims at Other Schools - Augsburg students may enroll at
any other 4-1-4 institution which offers a reciprocal Interim
arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim programs can be consulted 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. This qualification particularly
affects courses offered in religion.
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 $1,420 for the Interim
course. Students interested in registering for an Augsburg
Interim should write to the Registrar's Office for application
forms o r use the forms provided by the Interim office at their
own school. There is an application processing fee of $10.
Students are welcome to stay on campus but are not required
to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be made to the
Residence Life Office.
It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor
visiting students may register for 199,299,399 or 499 courses.

assumes that before one can evaluate a moral or societal issue
of a scientific nature one at the 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 greenhouse 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 be
helped 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 total score for total points on the daily
quizzes.

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.

EDS 495-1
Instructor: Mary Ann Bayless
Why are some things easy for a person to learn while others
seem harder? Why does the same task seem easier at one
moment and more difficult just a few hours later? Why do
some children struggle with seemingly simple assignments
but then suddenly master them? Why do more people suffer
with learning disabilities and weak short-term memory than
ever before? Each of us wants to be an efficient and happy
learner; but most often, no one has shown us how to be our
own lifelong learning coaches. In the last decade, work in
neuro-physiology has given us a whole new set of insights
about how the various parts of the brain actually work to produce learning and high-level functioning. Educational kinesiologists have taken these insights and produced simple but effective ways to increase the learning comfort of each individual.
This course will provide both the theory for each participant
to understand herlhis own unique learning needs and the
practice for becoming an efficient and joyful learner. We will
study learning development, brainlmind function, and the
nature of learning blocks. We will discuss the misuse of brain
dominance theory and learn routines for overcoming learning
blocks and integrating hemisphere functions. There will be
two tests and two demonstrations required of each student,
and upper-division students will have to do two reviews of
relevant research. The course uses two paperback texts. Very
useful for prospective teachers and parents.

be given to the vision and sensibility of each poet and to the
themes of their poems, especially those images and statements
that concern philosophical, historical, psychological and cultural values. Through comparison and contrast, students will
be expected to formulate reasonable interpretations of selected
poets and poems and to express their discoveries in class discussion and short papers. A final examination will be given
and two interpretive papers about three to five pages in lengtk
will be assigned. For upper division credit, the student will als
read and give a written class report on a book that discusses
contemporary poetry or a contemporary poet; this choice,

THECITY/GARDENAND WILDERNESS
ENG 2824
I'nstructor: Joan Griffin
The city has the power either to nourish or corrupt the human
soul. As a garden, the city tames and shapes nature to provide
an environment congenial to humanity. As a wilderness, the
city suggests the lack of moral restraint and self-control. This
course explores these themes in (mostly modern American)
essays, short stories, plays, poetry and films. Taking its cue
from Alfred Kazin's A Walker in the City,the course will
include a service project and field trips in which we will
explore some of the "gardens" and "wildernesses" of the Twin
Cities. Course grades will be based on a journal, two short
papers, class attendance and contributions to discussion.

Instructor: Robert Cowgill
This course reassesses the work of the American cinema's
greatest genius, Orson Welles. From his early radio plays with
the Mercury Theater, through his groundbreaking seminal
1941 film, "Citizen Kane," to his later Shakespearean adaptations, students will encounter and study all of the Welles
extant canon. Welles' stylistic impact on other filmmakers will
be examined, as well as the aesthetic choices Welles made in
transferring other literary forms (such as novels and plays) to
cinema. The course will also explore Welles' re-reading of
developing Hollywood studio techniques and formulas (such
as his deepening of the archetypal psychology presented in
classic film noir), and the changing critical reception of his
work.
Students will be responsible for viewing all the films; many of
the screenings will take place outside of class time. A journal,
two short papers and a final video project are required.
' Students registering under ENG 482 will have to write a long
research paper as well.

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 assignments, and to be

TOPICS

HIS 331-1
Instructor: Chris Kimball
Many people believe that the Civil War was the most important event in the history of the United States, one that transformed the nature of American society. Put more broadly, the
years between the mid-1840s and the late 1870s saw questions
about such fundamental principles as slavery and freedom
resolved; others, however, continue to trouble us to this day.
This course, then, offers a survey of the causes, issues and
consequences of the nation's bloodiest conflict. Topics to be
considered include slavery and anti-slavery, Manifest Destiny,
the growing sectional conflict, the origins of the Republican
Party, the clash of arms, the changing role of women, popular
religion, the transition from slave to free labor in the South,
and post-slavery race relations.
The course will include lectures, discussions, a variety of primary and secondary readings, and films. Grading will be
based on participation, several short writing assignments, a
mid-term and a final.

begins with the rise of mercantilism in the 16th century.
Topics will include the industrial take-off and the creation of
a waged-labor force in the 18th century, the rise of laissez-
faire economic principles and "free-trade" imperialism in the
19th century, and the subsequent challenges of communism
and the rise of the welfare state in the 20th century. We will
read substantial portions of the classic economic thinkers,
including Adam Smith, Thomas Malthus, David Hume,
Jeremy Bentham, David Ricardo, Sidney and Beatrice Webb,
Karl Marx, Max Weber, Alfred Marshall, Thorstein Veblen,
John Maynard Keynes, William Beveridge and Milton
Friedman. The course will also address the long-standing issues
of child labor, poverty and women's roles in the work force.

Instructor: Sonja Thompson, Martha Johnson
This interdisciplinary course will be co-taught by Music and
Theatre faculty. The goal will be to integrate training and per-
formance techniques from music and theatre to help students
gain knowledge, experience and skills in various genres of
Music Theatre (musicals, opera, plays involving singing and
music, and new music theatre). The course will also explore
the power of Music Theatre that links it with ritual, ceremony
and spiritual tradition, seen cross-culturally in ancient Greek
drama, Chinese Opera and Japanese Kabuki. Another goal of
the course is to give students the opportunity to increase their
level of comfort and skill on stage. The course will culminate
in a public performance of scenes from Music Theatre.
Grading will be based on student scenelrole research, class and
rehearsal commitment, and final performance. Interested students will be auditioned in December so that appropriate
material can be assigned to them. Students of all levels are welcome to take this course.

MAKING LIGHT OF MATTER: AN
~NTRODUC~~ON
TO LASERSAND SPECTROSCOPY
PHY 337-1
Instructor Stuart Anderson
The quest to understand how light and matter interact is at
the heart of modern physics, and lasers are probably the most
ubiquitous technical product of these ideas. This course will
begin with a short overview of optics needed for understanding imaging, beam control and dispersion, including the
nature of light, reflection, refraction and interference. The
stage is then set for treating super-radiant devices and lasers
and analyzing the effects of cavity design on output characteristics. The course will conclude by applying these concepts to
the study of atoms and molecules via the emission, absorption and scattering of light. Considerable emphasis will be
placed on laboratory experiences and scientific communication; only one-third of the class time will be used for formal
lectures and discussion. Grades will be determined on the
basis of weekly evaluation of laboratory notebooks, oral and
poster presentations, and two examinations.
Prerequisites: PHY 121, 122, 245 (or equivalenl) and MAT 124, 125, 224 (or 145, 146,

Instructor: Andrew Aoki
This course requires students to struggle with questions of
social justice in America. Students will develop and defend
their own standards of social justice and use those standards
to assess conditions in urban America. To pass this course,
students must engage in a substantial exchange of ideas with
fellow classmates in class discussions.
The course has two goals: to develop student thinking about
social justice, including greater awareness of conflicts between
justice and other values and to increase student ability to
understand urban problems as issues of justice and other central values.
Evaluation will be based on participation in discussion and
other class activities, on two short (4-6 pp.) papers and on a
final exam. Because of the compressed time frame of the
Interim schedule and the importance of material covered on
the first day of class, NO ONE WILL BE ADMITTED TO
THE CLASS WHO DOES NOT ATTEND THE FIRST DAY
OF CLASS, unless first receiving the permission of the
instructor.

During 1996, elections in Israel, Russia and the United
States-as well as political violence in Israel and Lebanoncreated a new context for the Middle East negotiation process.
This course will explore these changes and provide deeper
background for understanding the intractability of the ArabIsraeli conflict.
Drawing upon several theories of conflict and conflict resolution, we will study the historical development of the clash
between different nationalist claims to the land that Israelis
and Palestinians consider their home. How this conflict drew
in neighboring Arab states and superpower interests will be
reviewed. The strategic bargaining positions of the major participants will be analyzed as well as the roles of the United
States and United Nations in the conflict area, known as the
Arab Mashriq. Additional regional factors, such as radical
Islamic movements and tensions in the Persian Gulf, will be
analyzed for their impact on the longer-term negotiation
process. We will consider the potential for geo-political
expansion of the conflict into nearby regions.
Students will present two small oral presentations and one
major oral critique of analytic articles (for 295 credit) and
books (for 495 credit). A mid-term examination and class discussion will provide additional evaluations. Feature length
films from Middle East film producers will complement
course readings and lectures.

Marriage has been described in terms of a free fall, a decision
that we often make with a portion of our brain and all of our
heart. This course will take nothing from the heart, whether
you are married or not. It will, however, increase your certainty and the possibility for meaning and intimacy in your
life with a partner. In the context of Christian teachings,
many theories will be studied, with particular attention given
to the work of C.G. Jung, and will be applied to the marital
relationship primarily, and to the family secondarily.
There will be lectures, discussions and visiting resource persons. Evaluation will be based on class participation, one

Experiential learning occurs as students volunteer 80 hours in
a service agency or institution that students select. The placement must be approved by course faculty and supervised by
agency staff. In the context of this volunteer experience, students have the opportunity to interact with human service
professionals, clients and communities of diverse culturelethnic heritage and special concerns (age, socio-economic status,
lifestyles, developmental/physical abilities, gender, etc.). 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
which 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

work the paper.*)
*A readers' panel, selected by the MAL Advisory committee, will
review the revised paper.
Second Paper:
one of two ways:
The second major paper may be handled in
1) An Independent study ML 59·9 (1. 0 credit) taken with an
Advisor. There will be a major paper(approximately 30-35
pages) required. The student must earn at least a grade of
3.5.
.
2) Thesis Seminar ML 593-594 sequence (.5 er each-1.0 er
total) and complete a major paper(approximately 30-35 pages).
The second Plan B Paper will be reviewed by the readers' panel.
The task of the readers' panel is to determine whether the paper
is at the 3.5 level or better and to maintain consistent quality
across differing project~ and subject areas.
The second Plan B paper will be presented at an annual
Colloquium held for students, faculty, alumni and invited guests.
Students will present an Abstract (approximately 15 minutes) of
their second plan B paper completed during a given academic year.

Developing Leaders for
Organizations and the
Community
The Master of Arts in
Leadership (MAL) program
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
which 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 career oriented,
•
•

:
~
self-disciplined, and wellmotivated individuals, seeking a
balance of classroom experience,
group interaction, and individual
study. Most courses are
organized as seminars with
opportunity for discussion and
dialogue, and classes meet on
alternate Saturdays for threeand-one-half hours and alternate
Thursday evenings for one-andone-half 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 with 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. Students share meals
and coffee breaks; participate in
optional lunch time seminars;
and attend music and dramatic
presentations and athletic events.
Individual Professional
Development
A major component of the MAL
program is the professional.
assessment. Given in the first
year of study, the assessment
can help students to identify
leadership skills and preferred
work and learning styles.
Nationally recognized test
instruments are used and based
. ..
on the results, students are
encouraged to create
personalized goals and plans to
strengthen areas which may
require further development.
MAL students are encouraged to
enroll in ML 500, Leadership
Practicum. Students may enroll
in this professional development
series for six terms and upon
completion of six Practica,
receive a half-course credit to be
used as an elective. Scheduled
each term, Practica are designed
to meet student needs in areas
such as interpersonal
communication, approaches to
career change, coping with
workplace issues, and other
areas related to leadership and
professional development. In
consultation with the Director, the
student may also apply to receive
credit for attending seminars
related to his or her employment
as part of the Practicum course.

~ADERSHIP
DEVELOPMENT MODEL
•
•
•
•
•
The MAL program promotes
leadership as a process which
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 is 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.

MAL students are required to
complete 10.5 course credits
(42 semester hours) and a
Thesis or Leadership
Application Project. 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,
which have had demonstrated
success in advanced courses,
develop targeted leadership
abilities and understanding.
Students are encouraged to
see abilities and
understandings as crossdisciplinary and to see
content areas as integrated.
The very form of the program
reflects the view that the
world in which we operate is
complex and that dealing with
it successfully requires well-

The MAL program will allow
students to take up to two
electives from the Master of
Arts in Education - Leadership
(MEL) program. See the MEL
program bulletin for detailed
descriptions of these courses.
Thesis/Leadership
Application Project
At, or near, the completion of
the course work for the MAL
program, students are required
to develop and carry out a
study of some aspect of
leadership or of a
leadership-related topic. This
research-based study affords
students the opportunity to "tie
together" what has been
learned from the study of
leadership in the course work
and course-related activities.

Students have the option to do
either a Thesis or Leadership
Application Project for
completion of the degree. The
Thesis or Application Project
should be seen as the
culmination of the MAL
program, offering participants
the opportunity to investigate
either some aspect of leadership
in depth or explore the
application of what has been
studied. The distinction between
these two options lies in their
orientation. The Thesis will
have a more theoretical
orientation, while the
Leadership Application Project
will be based on a more
practical application orientation.
Students who do not complete
their Thesis or Leadership
Application Project while
enrolled in ML 594 are
required to pay a continuation
fee during each subsequent
term until the Thesis/Project
is completed.

Family Practice
...
. ..
.·
.. ·:
·)
Family, in its diverse forms, is
central to society. "Family,"
in this context, is interpreted
broadly as the nurturing system
surrounding people. It is inclusive of many areas of need.
As a growing number of familyrelated challenges face society,
there is an ever-increasing need
for professionals who base
their professional practice on indepth study of the broad
spectrum of issues that confront
the family . In the Family
Practice concentration, students
will concentrate on promoting
empowerment of the family
nurturing systems from a developmental and holistic
perspective.
Program Develop111e11t, Policy
and ,\d111i11istratio11
Social change is necessary to
foster policies and services that
respond to human need. The
Program Development, Policy
and Administration concentration has been developed in
response to the growing demand
for creative leadership and
administration. Effective
services require participatory
development, competent practitioners, strong leadership and
effective administration.
Students in this concentration
will develop the abilities and
skills necessary to promote
and achieve needed change, and
to develop, lead, guide and
administer programs that will
serve diverse people in a variety
of settings.
Eied.ivts
Students must select one elective in their course of study
toward the MSW degree.
Master's Thesis and
Seminar
All students will complete a
Master's thesis. The thesis is
intended to integrate research
and practice.

America. Named after the
confession of faith presented by
Lutherans in Augsburg,
Germany, in 1530, Augsburg
opened in September, 1869, in
Marshall, Wisc., and moved to
Minneapolis in 1872. The name
Augsburg College and Seminary
changed to Augsburg College
in 1963 when the Lutheran Free
Church merged with The
American Lutheran Church.
Augsburg's 23-acre campus is
located in the heart of the Twin
Cities surrounding Murphy
Square. Adjacent to the campus
are the Fairview Riverside
Medical Center complex, the
West Bank campus of the
University of Minnesota and
Mississippi River parkways .

major effort to become one of
the most accessible campuses in
the region. Without going
Augsburg is a college of The
Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America. The College is a
diverse community with many
strong religious traditions represented among the students,
faculty and staff, including but
not limited to Lutheran, Roman
Catholic, American Indian
Spirituality and Thought,
Buddhist and Islamic faiths.
Non-Discrimination
Policy
Augsburg College does not
discriminate on the basis of
race, creed, national or ethnic
origin, age, marital status,
gender, sexual orientation or

Topics in Literature: The Heroic Journey Griffin
This course will study archetypal patterns of the
heroic journey, as well as specific examples of such
journeys. It will emphasize the ideas of Joseph
Campbell, but will also consider other
interpretations of heroic journeys. Since western
civilization usually assumes that the hero is a man,
usually a white man belonging to a warrior class,
we will analyze the heroic warrior myth both as it
is depicted in ancient and medieval epics and
myths, but also as it appears in contemporary
American popular narratives. But the heroic
journey is a human journey, and thus the course
will also emphasize the heroic journeys of women
and men who may be neither white nor warriors
as they are depicted in folktales and novels.

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 particularly 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.
Since one Interim course equals a full-time 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
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 Pass/No Credit basis. A few Interim courses
are graded only on the P/N 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.
To graduate, a student under the 34-course Liberal Arts
Perspective requirements is required to complete two
Interim courses, but three Interim courses may count
toward graduation.
INTRODUCTION
For any student entering after January 1993, a maximum of two Interim course credits may be counted
toward the 33 total course credits required for graduation. The number of required Interim courses is adjusted for transfer students. Transfer students should refer
to their transfer credit evaluation form, or consult the
Registrar. Additional Interim credits which can count
toward the 33 course credits required may be taken by
students who repeat a course for credit in which a
grade below 2.0 was earned, or who need to make up
for a regular term in which they failed or withdrew
from a course.
Additional Interim courses not counted toward the 33
course credits required may be used to fulfill other
degree requirements. That is, no more than two Interim
course credits may be taken for credit toward 33, but
additional Interim courses may be used to fulfill major,
minor or general education requirements.
Day School students (3.0 credits or more for Fall) can
take a total of 1.0 course credits. 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 (Fall term). If less than fulltime 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 ($1,350.00) per course credit. If they do so they
may take only 1.0 additional course credits in Weekend
College for Winter Trimester.
It is the policy ofAugsburg College not to discriminate on the basis of race,
creed, national or ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as
required by Title IX ofthe 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of
the Rehabilitation Act of1973, as amended, in its admissions policies, educational programs, activities and employment practices.
International Interim - Students are invited to be part
of one of the 24 international Interim courses offered by
the Upper Midwest Association for International
Education (UMAIE). These course opportunities are
listed near the end of this catalog.
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 Internship Office (Murphy Place,
Rm. 8) no later than the last day of Fall classes (Friday,
December 8). 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 your
internship is available in the Internship and
Cooperative Education Office.
Independent 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 directed/independent study registration form. These forms must be submitted by
December 1. Appropriate study proposal and registration forms can be obtained in the Interim Office.
1 NTRODUCTION
Interims at Other Schools -Augsburg students may
enroll at any other 4-1-4 institution which offers a reciprocal Interim arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim
programs can be consulted in the Interim Office. The
Interim Secretary will help students in applying for registration at other schools. 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.
This qualification particularly affects religion courses .
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 $1,350 for the Interim course. Students interested in registering for an Augsburg Interim should
write to the Interim Director for application forms or
use the forms provided by the interim office at their
own school. There is an application processing fee of
$10. Students are welcome to stay on campus but are
not required to do so. Requests for Interim housing
should be made to the Interim Office.
It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor visiting students may register for 199,299, or
499 courses.

We will use a few historically, economically, and medically important plants to study some of the ways in
which humans and plants interact, biologically and otherwise. Plants are not only at the bottom of our food
chain but also play a part in non-food aspects of our
lives, either directly (e.g. medicines, fibers, dyes, etc.) or
indirectly (e.g. food crises have influenced human
migrations). We will study the uses, biology, natural
history, and classificationof several important plants.
Evaluation will be based on three or four 40-minute
exams, several quizzes, and an oral presentation.

CHM 100-A
Instructor: Arlin Gyberg
This course is developed in 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 the
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 greenhouse 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 be helped 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 total score for total points on the
daily quizzes.

others seem harder? Why does the same task seem easier at one moment and more difficult just a few hours
later? Why do some children struggle with seemingly
simple assignments but then suddenly master them?
Why do more people suffer with learning disabilities
and weak short term memory than ever before? Each of
us wants to be an efficient and happy learner, but most
often, no one has shown us how to be our own life-long
learning coaches. In the last decade, work in neurophysiology has given us a whole new set of insights
about how the various parts of the brain actually work
to produce learning and high level functioning.
Educational kinesiologists have taken these insights and
produced simple but effective ways to increase the
learning comfort of each individual.
This course will provide both the theory for each participant to understand her/his own unique learning needs
and the practice for becoming an efficient and joyful
learner. We will study learning development,
braidmind function, and the nature of learning blocks.
We will discuss the misuse of brain dominance theory
and learn routines for overcoming learning blocks and
integrating hemisphere functions. There will be two
tests and two demonstrations required of each student,
and upper division students will have to do two
reviews of relevant research. The course uses two
paperback texts. Very useful for prospective teachers
and parents.

The ACTC writing workshop is an advanced-level creative writing course, open to three students from each
of the five ACTC colleges and held this year at
Augsburg College. This year's course is designed to
encourage student writers to use memories of the past
as they create their own new work. Writers will dig for
details of the past in urban ruins of old neighborhoods,
sifting through social history found in button jars and
stacks of 78 RPM records in antique stores; they will
harvest myth from diverse cultures; collect stories from
elders living in Minneapolis today; and investigate
cemeteries, churches, and even an occasional museum.
Student writers must have successfully completed at
least one creative writing course and must have the recommendation of a creative writing instructor at their
home campus, but they may choose to work in poetry,
fiction, literary nonfiction or to cross over among the
three during this interim workshop. Meeting times will
include: (1)expeditions into the city in search of the
past; (2) group sessions to talk about the old stories
gathered; (3) group sessions to discuss new work created during the Interim and to sort through layers of past
deposited in the new work: (4) individual conferences
and/or small workshop sessions.

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 impacts 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 which has prompted
Hindus to massacre Muslims, think on the Christ-likeness 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).

This course is a study of Book 1 of Euclid's Elements,
which is sometimes cited as the most-frequently published book ever other than the Bible. Book 1 of the
Elements ends with the Pythagorean Theorem,
Proposition 47. We'll first work backward from that
theorem, considering propositions Euclid cites in proving it (46,41, and 4), and then the propositions he cites
in proving those propositions, and so on, gaining familiarity with about 30 major propositions but especially
34,4, and 3, the ones most used. We'll consider other
logically-sound ways of arranging these propositions
and think about the aesthetic reasons Euclid made his
arrangement. After getting to Proposition 1, we'll consider the common notions, definitions, and postulates,
learn about how attempts to prove Euclid's fifth postulate led to non-Euclidean geometry in the nineteenth
century, and see more logically rigorous geometric
axiom systems of the twentieth century. Then we'll
read the book forward, seeing how the other propositions fit in and seeing how they lend insight into
Euclid's aesthetic choices.

"During World War 11, British military leaders asked
scientists and engineers to analyze several military
problems: the deployment of radar and the management of convoy, bombing, antisubmarine, and mining
operations. The application of mathematics and the scientific method to military operations was called operations research. Today, the term Operations Research (or
often, management science) means a scientific approach
to decision making, which seeks to determine how best
to design and operate system, usually under conditions
requiring the allocation of scarce resources." - Wayne
L. Winston
The main objectives of this course are the discussion of
several mathematical models used in operations
research (OR) and the use of mathematics and the existing computer packages (such as LINDO) in solving

The Lutheran Church is the largest Protestant church in
the world. We will not only examine the Lutheran
Church as it is at the present time, but also study its origin in the 16th century, its development over 450 years,
and its cultural influence. Representative figures to be
studied include Luther, Bach, and Bonhoeffer. There
will be lectures, discussions and visiting resource persons. Requirements include class participation and
exams.

SCIENCE
AND
RELIGION
REL 374-A
Instructors: John Benson and Mark Engebretson
For some in our society science is the driving engine of
a better, more secure life and the basis for a philosophy
of life. For others, science and its associated technologies, along with its invitation to become a global world
view, constitute a grave threat. Some Christians particularly feel threatened by science. This course will
address these matters in two ways. First, it will begin
with a historical overview of the relations between sci-
ence and the Christian faith, emphasizing three periods:
the origins of the Christian faith, the development of
"modern" science and mechanistic philosophy, and the
re-evaluation of science and nature in the 20th century.
Second, it will study systematically the world views of
science and religion to see how they compare.
Class time will be divided among a variety of activities
including lectures, whole class discussions, small group
tutorials, and an extended simulation exercise in developing a space colony, drawing from the ideas developed in the course. Course evaluation will be based on
two short exams, participation in small group tutorials
based on assigned readings, a group project presentation, and a major synthesis paper based on the group
project and course materials.

view of process philosophy and examines how it has

Special attention will be given to the writings of John B.
Cobb, Jr., as a representative of process theology.
Classes will include videos, small groups, and some
lecture to introduce topics. Ethical issues addressed in
the class include killing, abortion, human sexuality and
euthanasia. Grades will be based on the paper (10-15
pages), the presentation of the paper to the class and
class participation.

S WK 257-A
Instructor: Mary Lou Williams
Experiential learning occurs as students volunteer 80
hours in a service agency or institution which students
select. The placement must be approved by course faculty and supervised by agency staff. In the context of
this volunteer experience students have opportunity to
interact with human service professionals, clients, and
communities of diverse culture/ethnic heritage and
special concerns (age, socio-economic status, lifestyles,
developmental/physical abilities, gender, etc.). 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 which assist students in integrating agency experiences and readings which 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".

As practitioners, teachers are
concerned with enhancing their
teaching skills and their
students' learning. As
professionals, teachers are
increasingly responsible for and
concerned about educ;ational
decision-making. Augsburg
College offers a program that
addresses this dual focus of
classroom practitioner and
teacher leader. The Master of
Arts in Education-Leadership
(MEL) program offers opportunities to increase knowledge and
skills (1) for teaching today and
(2) for leading education into
the future. This program values
the role that good teachers play
in the lives of students and operates from the belief that teachers
can exercise leadership, inside
and outside the classroom,
without relinquishing the role of
teacher .
The Minnesota Board of
Teaching, in its requirements for
teacher licensure programs,
acknowledges the importance of
developing teachers who have
the knowledge and skill to act as
leaders, or change agents.
Beginning teachers, however,
often feel overwhelmed with
issues of classroom practice;
thus, it is logical to offer a
program which includes a
"change agent" focus at the
degree level sought by veteran
teachers. The MEL program
incorporates an educational
leadership focus alongside the
more traditional classroom practice focus to address the
expanded role teachers play in
today's schools .
As a part of this program you
will:
• Study issues of classroom
practice, including teaching
and learning, creativity, and
multi-cultural ism;
• Gain specific know ledge of
educational institutions and
processes;
• Examine who and what leadership is about and explore
ways to exercise leadership
within your workplace;
• Develop expertise in an area
of personal interest through an
individualized, capstone
research project.

~ADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT MODEL
..
.,
The MEL program promotes
leadership as a process which
I) inspires cooperation among
people, 2) promotes productivity
within and beyond the educational organization, and
3) works toward growth and
change within the educational
organization. Individuals in
leadership roles identify three
key attributes of leadership: a
sense of vision, the ability to
persuade, and the ability to
direct action. These attributes
form the framework for the
Leadership Developm~nt Model

These courses are required of
students pursuing the MEL
degree and are not available to

These courses are available to
degree seeking students but are
not available to non-degree
seeking students. For students
wanting to explore issues of
leadership and organizational
change within a broader context,
the MEL program will allow up
to two electives from the Master
of Arts in Leadership program.
These courses become part of
the Focus II component of the
MEL program. See the Master
of Arts in Leadership program
bulletin for courses.
Some students express a theoretical and/or empirical interest in
the study of education and/or
leadership and identify topics
which lend themselves to a
more traditional thesis project.
An example of a thesis project
would be a comparison of the
effects of two instructional
strategies on student learning.
The connection to leadership
comes as the thesis writer
considers how to share his/her
expertise with others.

P rnjed:
At, or near, the completion of
the course work for the MEL
program, students are required
to develop and carry out a study
or project related to education
and leadership. The focus can be
on an issue in education with
opportunities for personal
leadership, or it can focus on
leadership itself within the
context of education. This
research-based capstone
experience affords students the
opportunity to become an expert
in an area of personal interest as
well as to "tie together" what
has been learned throughout the
MEL program. Students have
the option to select either a
Thesis or a Leadership
Application Project. The decision as to which of these
alternatives is selected depends
Other students express interest
in an applied project which
includes the development and
implementation of an idea
related to education. These
students find the Leadership
Application Project to be the
appropriate culminating
experience. An example of a
leadership application project is
one which includes the development and implementation of a
peer mediation training program
at the middle school level.
Leadership issues emerge as
part of the training of students
and staff in the use of the
program.
In both capstone experiences,
research forms the foundation
for decision-making and
direction.

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 particularly 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.
Since one Interim course equals a full-time load, students
should plan to spend the same amount of time in class
and preparing for class as they would for a four-course
load during Fall or Spring semesters. 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 P/N 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 the student 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.
To graduate, an Augsburg student who is under the
Distribution requirements is required to complete three
Interim courses. For a student under the Liberal Arts
Perspective requirements, two Interim courses are
required. For any student entering after January 1993 a
maximum of two Interim course credits may be counted
toward the 33 total credits required for graduation. The
number of required Interim courses is adjusted for
transfer students. Transfer students should refer to their
transfer credit evaluation form, or consult the Registrar.
Additional Interim credits which can count toward the 33
credits required may be taken by students who repeat a
credit for a course in which a grade below 2.0 was
earned, or who need to make up for a regular term in
which they failed or withdrew from a course.
Additional Interim courses not counted toward the 33
credits required may be used to fulfill other degree
requirements. That is, no more than two Interim course
credits may be taken for credit toward 33, but additional
Interim experiences may be used to fulfill major, minor
or general education requirements.
Day School students (3.0 credits or more for Fall) can take
a total of 1.0 course credits. 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 (Fall term). If less than full-time they will be
charged.
Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim
which is a Cross-Over, but will be charged Day School
prices ($1,270). They also can only then take 1.0 course
credits in Weekend College.
It is the policy of Augsburg College not to discriminate on the basis of
race, creed, national or ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or
handicap as required by Title IX of the 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended,
in its admissions policies, educational programs, activities and
employment practices.

Introduction
The catalog lists courses by department in alphabetical order.
At the end of the book are listings of other courses not offered
by Aupburg but recogruzed by the College for Interim
credit. Additional descriptions and information about these
courses are available in the Interim Office, Memorial 230.
Students may also register for one of the lifetime sports listed
at the end of the catalog.
International Interim -Students are invited to be part of
one of the 24 international Interim courses offered by the
Upper Midwest Association for International Education
(UMAIE).See page 48 for course listings.
Internships deadline - Friday, December 9. January
Interim internships must be planned in advance. Students
electing an internship must meet departmental require
ments and present a signed internship learning agreement
plan to the Internship Office (Murphy Place, Rrn. 8) no
later than the last day of Fall classes (Friday, December 9).
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 your internship is available in the
Internship and Cooperative Education Office.
Independent 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 November 28. Appropriate
study proposal and registration forms can be obtained in
the Interim Office.
Interims at Other Schools - Augsburg students may enroll at
any other 41-4 institution which offers a reciprocal Interim
arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim programs can be
consulted in the Interim Office. The Interim Secretary will
help students in applying for registration at other schools.
Registration for Interims at the other ACTC colleges will be
at Augsburg during the regular registration period. Most
courses taught during Interim at other 4-1-4 schools are
accepted for credit by Augsburg, but might not meet
Augsburg's general education requirements. This qualification particularly affects religion courses.
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
$1,270 for the Interim course. Students interested in
registering for an Augsburg Interim should write to the
Interim Director for application forms or use the forms
provided by the Interim office at their own school. There is
an application processing fee of $10. Students are welcome
to stay on campus but are not required to do so. Requests
for Interim housing should be made to the Interim Office.
It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students
nor visiting students may register for 299 or 499 courses.

This is a non-laboratory chemistry course based on the
popular book by John W. Hill of the same title. It is not a
traditional chemistry course and does not assume a
science background. Basic science and math are introduced early and taught as needed for understanding the
various topics and implications. The course does assume
the student is interested in and concerned about the
relationship of chemistry to life and living.
Chemistry has been intimately a part of liberal education
for centuries. The early scientists were considered to be
philosophers and their societies were philosophical
societies. In recent decades the human seeking of
personal independence has led to chemistry becoming a
part of everyday life to the point of actual dependence on
chemistry. We live in a world of pesticides, fertilizers,
plastics, "the Pill", food additives and processed foods,
vitamin supplements, the energy crisis, chemical dependency, biocides, pollutants, drugs, searching for life on
other planets, genetic manipulation, and it goes on and
on. Emotions and mental disorders can often be traced to
chemical imbalance. The common dragged out, grumpy
feeling after an afternoon nap is a result of a chemical
imbalance. The nature of a hangover is the result of a
complex system of altered body chemistry. Even learning
appears to be the result of chemical reaction to form a
"memory molecule". Most of the problems we face are
molecular in nature. What then but chemistry can better
help us to understand ourselves, our society, our world,
and our universe? Come join us as we take a molecular
look at the human condition.
This course will be offered in a lecture/discussion format.
Films will supplement the lecture/discussion periods.
Daily quizzes will be used for evaluation. This course does
not satisfy prerequisites for Chemistry 106 or 116.

In this course we will identify what virtue is, inquire
about how one becomes virtuous, and explore some of
the major virtues - like compassion, honesty, prudence,
justice, and love - through classical and contemporary
literature. The goal is to provide opportunity for you to
think about your character and its development, to
enable you to ask about the relation between character
and moral actions, and to probe your curiosity by
considering possible tensions between the virtues, as
found in life situations.
The course is built around the question of values, in
particular, the issue of virtue (qualities of moral character). A broad list of virtues will be considered, including
the classical Christian virtues of faith, hope, and love. We
will look at what these virtues are, at their relationship to
each other, evaluate possible conflicts between them, and
see how they play out in life situations, both in literature
and (through the journals) in students' lives.

Although generally relegated to separate sections in
bookstores or to children's bookshelves, fantasy, as J.R.R.
Tolkien argues, is "not a lower but a higher form of Art,
indeed the most nearly pure form, and so (when
achieved) the most potent."
This course will study 20th century examples of fantasy,
looking for their roots in folktale, myth, epic and romance. At times the course will pair medieval and
modern works of the fantastic imagination (for instance,
"The Mabinogion" and "Evangeline Walton" or
"Beowulf" and 'The Hobbit"). We will attempt to define
the genre of fantasy by discussing essays by C.S. Lewis,
Tolkien, Ursula LeGuin, and Madelein L'Engle, as well as
considering relevant theories of myth and folktale by
Joseph Campbell, Axel Olrik, Lord Raglan, and others.
Students taking the course for lower division credit will
be asked to write several short papers. In addition to
writing several microthemes, ENG 482 students should
be prepared to write a substantial paper on the works of

What is the attraction of French literature for the nonFrench reader? What major French writers have portrayed diverse non-Western cultures and social strata in
their literary works? What can we discover about
ourselves and other cultures in learning how to read,
analyze, and communicate our findings through literature? With these questions in mind we will read and
analyze 8-10 shorter French literary works available to us
in English translation.
What will we be studying? The legend of St. Julien
presented in Middle Ages style by Flaubert, examples of
the Renaissance search for new worlds found in Rabelais,
a bit of Descartes autobiography. We will travel the
world with Voltaire's "Candide," explore social themes
of a 19th century nouvelle, and read 20th century authors
like Gide, Malraux, Camus, St. Exupery, and Duras with
their multi-cultural connections. We will sample one
piece of francophone literature from West Africa,
reflecting the struggle between indigenous and Western
culture. At mid-point you will choose another short work
for personal study, comparative analysis and presentation for the class.
Assessment in such a course will be ongoing, based on
individual and group response to the many activities in the
course. Timely reading of assigned texts, analyses, discussion preparations, short quizzes, and cultural discoveries
will enable you to undertake successfully your independent
study project and further enrich the whole class.
This literature course for the non-literature major is
intended to help you in further free reading, in your
critical thinking about other cultures, and in communica-

engage in a substantial exchange of ideas with fellow
classmates in class discussions.
The course has two goals: to develop student thinking
about social justice, including greater awareness of
conflicts between justice and other values; and to increase
student ability to understand urban problems as issues of
justice and other central values.
Evaluation will be based on participation in discussion
and other class activities, on two short ( 4 6 pp.) papers,
and on a final exam.

In these classes we will investigate the major political
issues facing citizens and policy-makers in Middle East
countries today.
We will analyze Islamic tradition as it has shaped social
values and provided a reservoir for political protest in
the 1990s. Country studies on Egypt, Iran, Syria, Israel/
Palestine, Lebanon, and Saudi Arabia will be used to study
how modernization has given rise to new conflict patterns
and today's Islamic political movements. We will consider
the prospects for improved human rights and democratic
participation. Several featurelength films dramatizing
political conflicts in the f id die East will be shown.
Two textbooks will be used for the course as well as a
variety of specialized country studies. Each student will
prepare comments on political themes, read and critique a
selection from the course booklist, and write a final essay
analyzing political aspects of two countries in the Middle
East. Students taking the 268 level will have fewer analytic
requirements in their presentations and essays.

Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in
September, 1869, in Marshall, Wisconsin,
and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The
first college stude,ntswere enrolled in 1874
and the first graduation was in 1879.
Augsburg is committed to educating
the whole person, encouraging and
respecting diversity and serving the larger
community. Through education, understanding and service, Augsburg faculty,
staff and students can affect the future in
positive ways.
Early Leaders Establish a Direction
The phrase, "Think globally, act
locally" rings true at Augsburg. The
College's location in the heart of the Twin
Cities provides rich opportunities for
experiential education, volunteer service,
internships and cultural enrichment. In a
sense, the cities are an extended campus
for Augsburg students.
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 developfuture leaders of 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,
August Weenaas was Augsburg's first
president (1869-1876).
Professor Weenaas recruited two
teachers from Norway -Sven Oftedal and
Georg Sverdrup. These three men clearly
articulated the direction of Augsburg: to
educate Norwegian Lutherans to minister
to immigrants and to provide such "college" studies that would prepare students
for theological study.
In 1874 they proposed a three part plan:
First, train ministerial candidates; second,
prepare future theological students; and
third, educate the farmer, worker and
businessman. The statement stressed that a
good education is also practical.
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, 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
About Augsburg 7
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. But the college division was still
important primarily as an attachment to
the seminary.
The Focus Changed
This attitude began to change after
World War I. In 1911, Georg 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 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
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 modern
college program based on general education requirements and elective majors.
With curriculum 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 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
Northwestern Seminary) in St. Paul in 1963.
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 non-traditional student
populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all people. During his years of
leadership the College became a vital and

- About Augsburg
Augsburg continues to reflect the
commitment and dedication of the

challenges and diversity is an unequaled
learning laboratory for Augsburg students.

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 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. For the
1993-'94 academic year, nearly 9 out of 10
students at Augsburg received scholarships,
grants, loans and part-time employment.
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 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 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.
HOW AND WHEN TO APPLY

available to students meeting their requirements. In addition to these sources, some

choose to make payments while in school

to be capitalized (added to the balance of
the loan).

- ACADEMIC INFORMATION
A
ugsburg College constructs its
curriculum upon the premise that students
must be educated as fully human persons
-intellectually, spiritually and physically.

providing courses in
the humanities, natural sciences and social
sciences, the general education curriculum
introduces students to the breadth and

spirituality in their lives. Recreation courses
offer students the opportunity to develop
skills for participation in exercise and
sporting activities.
Students choose from over 40 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.
