the profession and role to which you feel called,
and a confident sureness that you have rightly
chosen Augsburg as the community in which to

If you're dipping into this volume to
figure out who and what Augsburg College is
and what education it offers, welcome to these
pages! May they convey the fundamental
character of our mission: to provide an education
especially serviceable in the contemporary world
because it has been designed in the midst of and
in
full contact with the critical social, economic,
Y
religious, and political phenomena of the modern
3
city. This education, however practical and pro6
fessional, will be serviceable over the long haul
only to the degree that it respects and pursues
certain of what Martin Luther called "the fine liberal arts," and it will be exciting to the degree it
is offered for the sake of improving both its students and the world itself.

A
t Augsburg College, we believe that
the college experience should be a time of
exploration, of discovery, of new experiences, and new possibilities. We also
believe that a liberal arts education is your
best preparation for living in the fastpaced, changing, and complex world of
today and tomorrow. Upon graduation, you
will be able to demonstrate not only the
mastery of a major field of study, but also
the ability to think critically, solve problems, and communicate effectively
Emphasis on values, perspectives,
experience, and skills
The heart of an Augsburg education is
the Augsburg cuniculum-the College's
general education program, which structures your liberal arts studies through challenging and thought-provoking courses
requiring students to consider important
issues and examine values questions. These
Liberal Arts Perspectives include Western
Heritage, Intercultural Awareness, Human
Identity the Social World, Christian Faith,
The City, Aesthetics, and the Natural World.
At the same time, courses across all disciplines stress the skills that will serve you
for a lifetime-writing, speaking, critical
thinking, and quantitative reasoning, to
name a few.
Thanks to Augsburg's prime location in
the heart of a thriving metropolitan area,
many courses are able to offer rich and varied learning opportunities in real-life situations through academic internships, experiential education, volunteer community service, and cultural enrichment. In a sense,
the resources of the Twin Cities are an
extended campus for Augsburg students.
Selection from over 50 majors
Augsburg offers more than 50 majorsor you can create your own major either
on campus or through the Associated
Colleges of the Twin Cities (ACTC). (See
page 55 for a complete list of majors and
minors.) This five-college consortium
allows students to take courses on other
campuses without charge while a full-time
student at Augsburg. The ACTC includes
Augsburg College, College of St. Catherine,
Hamline University, Macalester College,
and the University of St. Thomas.
Through the Weekend College
Program, 14 majors are offered.
MISSION STATEMENT
Students who graduate from Augsburg
are well prepared to make a difference in
the world. They stand as testaments to the
College motto, "Education for Service,"
and to the mission of the College:
To nurture future leaders in service to
the world by providing high quality educational opportunities, which are based in
the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and
values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by
an intentionally diverse campus community
A College of the Church
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America,
named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in
1530. Augsburg opened in September
1869, in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved
to Minneapolis in 1872. The first seminarians were enrolled in 1874, and the first
graduation was in 1879.

About Augsburg 1
Early Leaders Establish a Direction
The Focus Changed
August Weenaas was Augsburg's first
president (1869-1876).
This attitude began to change after
World War I. In 1911, George Sverdrup,Jr.
became president. He worked to develop
college departments with an appeal to a
broader range of students than just those
intending to be ministers. Augsburg admitted women in 1922 under the leadership of
Gerda Mortensen, dean of women. She
spent the next 42 years at the College as a
teacher and administrator.
Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway-Sven Oftedal and Georg
Sverdrup. These three men clearly articulated the direction of Augsburg: to educate
Norwegian Lutherans to minister to immigrants and to provide such "college" studies that would prepare students for theological study.
In 1874 they proposed a three-part
plan: first, train ministerial candidates; second, prepare future theological students;
and third, educate the farmer, worker, and
businessman. The statement stressed that a
good education is also practical.
Augsburg's next two presidents also
emphatically rejected ivory tower concepts
of education. This commitment to church
and community has been Augsburg's theme
for over 125 years.
Education for Service
Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist"
college, Georg Sverdrup, Augsburg's second
president (1876-1907), required students
to get pre-ministerial experience in city
congregations. Student involvement in the
community gave early expression to the
concept of Augsburg's motto, "Education
for Service."
In the 18905, Augsburg leaders formed
the Friends of Augsburg, later called the
Lutheran Free Church. The church was a
group of independent congregations committed to congregational autonomy and
personal Christianity. This change made
Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the small Lutheran body. The college division, however, was still important
primarily as an attachment to the seminary.
The College's mission assumed a double character-ministerial preparation
together with a more general education for
life in society. In 1937, Augsburg elected
Bernhard Christensen, an erudite and
scholarly teacher, to be president (19381962). His involvement in ecumenical and
civic circles made Augsburg a more visible
part of church and city life.
After World War 11, Augsburg leaders
made vigorous efforts to expand and improve
academic offerings. Now the College was a
larger part of the institution than the seminary and received the most attention.
Accreditation for the College
Augsburg added departments essential
to a liberal arts college, offering a modem
college program based on general education requirements and elective majors.
With curriculum change came a long effort
to become accredited.
The College reached accreditation in
1954, although many alumni had entered
graduate schools and teaching positions
long before that time.
A study in 1962 defined the College's
mission as serving the good of society first
and the interests of the Lutheran Free
Church second. The seminary moved to
Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther
Seminary) in St. Paul in 1963 when the
Lutheran Free Church merged with the
American Lutheran Church.

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

Augsburg's campus is located in the
heart of the Twin Cities, surrounding

ALL TRANSFER STUDENTS
Augsburg College welcomes students
who wish to transfer from other accredited
colleges or universities. College credit is
granted for liberal arts courses satisfactorily
completed at accredited institutions. The
College reserves the right not to grant
credit for courses where it considers the
work unsatisfactory, to grant provisional
credit for work taken at unaccredited institutions, and to require that certain courses
be taken at Augsburg.
Augsburg College limits transfer
coursework from two-year colleges once a
student has reached junior status. Students
may transfer a maximum of 64 semester
credits (96 quarter credits) from two-year
colleges. Once a student reaches junior
status, no additional credits will transfer
from two-year institutions toward the
minimum of 33 credits required for a
baccalaureate degree. These courses can,
however, be used to meet liberal arts and
major requirements.
A cumulative grade point average
(GPA) of 2.2 (on a 4.0 scale) or better is
required on previous college work for
admission to the College.
Acceptance of courses submitted for
transfer is done by the registrar's office
based upon the official student
transcript(s). Acceptance of courses presented for a major or minor also requires
approval of the department. The major or
minor department may require certain
courses or a minimum number of courses
be taken at Augsburg.
Students transfemng from the
Minnesota State University and College
System who have completed the Minnesota
Transfer Curriculum, have earned the
Associate of Arts degree from MNSCU, and
have a 2.5 (on a 4.0 scale) cumulative GPA
or higher will be given transfer status as
outlined below.
The following applies only to the
MNSCU A.A. graduate:
1. Admission will be with junior standing
following the MN Transfer Curriculum. A
maximum of 17 Augsburg equivalent
courses (64 semester credits or 96 quarter
credits from a community college) will be
accepted once junior status is reached. No
additional courses may be transferred from
a community college.
2. All Augsburg general education requirements will be waived except:
The City Perspective
Two courses in Christian Faith (any
two areas)
The language requirement as stated
One course that meets the Quantitative
Reasoning Graduation Skill requirement
-
Undergraduate Admissions 23
One graduation skill writing course in
the major
College algebra or Math Placement
Group 3
One lifetime sport
3. Courses with D grades will not be
accepted as prerequisites or for application
to majors. Some Augsburg majors require
additional prerequisite coursework beyond
the A.A. degree. Also, the physician assistant major requires a cumulative GPA
higher than 2.5. Students are advised to
consult major departments for major
requirements upon transfer.
Admission to a major, as well as admission to the College, is sometimes necessary.
Please check with the Office of
Undergraduate Admissions and consult the
departmental section of this catalog.
Note: No student who falls below the
standards for automatic admission to the
College will be considered for admission
by the Admissions Committee after August
15 for entry in fall semester or January 15
for entry in spring semester.
FORMER STUDENTS

absence and who wish to return must
apply for re-admission through the registrar's office. Students who have attended
other institution(s) during their absence

forms are available in the Office of Student
Life in Christensen Center.
All students who wish to be considered
for financial assistance must establish financial aid eligibility on an annual basis. This
includes completing the application process
as outlined below and meeting the academic progress standards outlined in the
brochure "Academic Progress Standards for
Financial Aid." This brochure is available
from the Enrollment and Financial Services
Center and is distributed to students on an
annual basis.
Financing higher education could be
the most significant investment a person
or family makes in a lifetime. Proper planning and wise choices are important, not
only in choosing a college, but also in the
methods used to pay for it. Augsburg
College, through its EFSC, will help students and their families protect access to a
quality Augsburg education in a time of
increasing financial challenge.
Financial assistance awarded through
Augsburg may be a combination of
scholarships, grants, loans, and part-time
work opportunities. The College cooperates with federal, state, church, and private
agencies in providing various aid programs. During the 1999-2000 academic
year, more than eight out of ten students at
Augsburg received financial assistance.
The primary responsibility for financing
a college education rests upon the student
and family. Financial aid supplements
student and family resources.
The Free Application for Federal
Student Aid (FAFSA) and the Augsburg
Financial Aid Application help determine
the amount of assistance for which a student is eligible. This analysis takes into
account such family financial factors as
-

current income, assets, number of dependent family members, other educational
expenses, debts, retirement needs, and special considerations.
HOW TO APPLY
The following are required to process
your financial aid application:
1. Be admitted to Augsburg as a regular
student or be a returning student in good
academic standing with the College.

Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the
Renewal FAFSA. FAFSA forms are available

school year. Be sure to include

the processing agency after Jan. 1.
Applications must be mailed by April 15

H WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

includes:
Letter detailing the financial aid
award
Information regarding financial aid
programs and requirements for continued eligibility
Subsidized~UnsubsidizedFederal
Stafford loan application

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

5 3TUDENT LIFE
E
xperiences in the classroom are an
important part of college life, but learning
and development also occur in formal and
informal activities of the College and the
metropolitan area. Whether students are
residents or commuters, the climate for
learning and living at Augsburg will add
dimension to their education.
As a college of the church, we are
concerned about spiritual as well as academic and social growth. Our concern
for spiritual growth is evident in the
opportunities we encourage and provide
for students to explore their own faith.
Because our campus is comprised of
individuals from many different religious
and cultural backgrounds, our worship life
is characterized by a similar diversity and
richness of tradition. Bible studies, growth
groups, outreach teams and community
outreach opportunities, retreats, peace and
justice forums, concerts, and gatherings are
examples of the wide variety of activities
on campus.
This ministry finds its most visible
expression in chapel worship where students, faculty, and staff gather each day to
give thanks and hear the Gospel proclaimed by a number of speakers and
musicians. Each Wednesday night students
gather for Holy Communion. On Sundays,
Trinity Lutheran worship services are held
on campus, with many other churches
within walking distance.
We seek to develop a free and open
environment where people are encouraged
to use and discover the gifts and sense of
call and vocation that God has given them.
As a college of the church, we encourage
students to form values guided by our
Christian heritage, which will be the basis
for the kind and quality of life that reaches
beyond their years at Augsburg.
The college pastor, associate college
pastor, and campus ministry staff have
offices in the Foss, Lobeck, Miles Center
for Worship, Drama, and Communication
and are available for spiritual guidance,
counseling, support, or information.
Through Student Government, students
secure a closer relationship with and better
understanding of the administration and
faculty and provide input into the decision-making process at Augsburg. Student
Government also sponsors and directs student organizations, protects student rights,
and provides the means for discussions
and action on all issues pertaining to student life at Augsburg.
Student Government is organized into
the executive branch, the legislative
branch, and the judicial branch. Elections
are held in the spring for the next year.
Freshmen elect their representatives in the
fall of their first year. Many kinds of
involvement are possible-program planning, writing, editing, or service opportunities. If you want to get involved, contact
the president or vice president of the student body in their offices in the lower level
of the Christensen Center.
The Student Activities Program creates
opportunities for students to enhance their
leadership skills through active involvement in developing events, activities, and
organizations that serve the student community Hundreds of major programming
efforts and targeted activities for specific
student interests are generated through
these efforts and make Augsburg a dynamic and enjoyable interactive environment.
SOCIAL, CULTURAL, RECREATIONAL
Throughout the year, a variety of social
and cultural activities takes place on campus as well as in the Twin Cities. These
activities include dances, films, theme
events, name entertainment, and visiting
personalities in various fields.
The Christensen Center is the focus of
leisure-time activity on campus. Cooper's
Attic (the gameroom and student lounge)
is a popular hangout located in the lower
level. Many of the clubs that unite classroom and non-classroom related interests
meet here. Student offices in this area
include the College newspaper, the Echo;
the yearbook, The Augsburgian; Student
Government; and the Augsburg Student
Activities Council. KCMR, a student-operated nonprofit radio station serving the
needs of Augsburg and the surrounding
Cedar-Riverside community, is located in
Urness Tower.
FINE ARTS
Students have many opportunities to
participate in music and drama. In addition to appearing on campus and in the
city, the Augsburg Choir, Concert Band,
and Orchestra perform on national and
international tours. Many other ensembles
are available to cover the entire range of
musical styles and previous musical experience. Students stage several plays on campus each year under the direction of the
Theatre Arts Program and have the opportunity to attend a series of on-campus
workshops with visiting arts professionals.
H INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS
Augsburg is affiliated with the
Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic
Conference (MLAC) and is a member of
the National Collegiate Athletic
Association (NCAA) Division 111. Men
annually compete in football, soccer, cross
country, basketball, ice hockey, wrestling,
baseball, track and field, and golf. Women
annually compete in volleyball, cross country, soccer, basketball, ice hockey, softball,
track and field, and golf.
During 1999-2000, Augsburg men's and
women's athletics marked the 75th
anniversary of intercollegiate competition.
Every student is urged to participate in
some activity for recreation and relaxation.
An intramural program provides competition in a variety of team sports as well as
individual performance activities.
Broomball has been an especially popular
coed sport. Check schedules for times
when there is open use of the gymnasium
and ice arena.
SPORTS AND RECREATION
At Augsburg, sports are for the average
student as well as the intercollegiate
athlete. The campus offers on a spaceavailable basis a double-rink ice arena,
gymnasium, 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 walkers and
runners. (See Fitness Center on page 47.)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Instructors: Mary Lou Williams and Lois Bosch
Experiential learning occurs as students volunteer 80 hours in
a service agency or institution that they select. The placement
must be approved by course faculty and supervised by agency
staff. The course is designed to help students learn about
themselves in relation to a possible major or future career in
the human services.
The three-hour weekly seminar is devoted to discussions that
assist students in integrating agency experiences and readings
that explore the historical development of social welfare as an
institution and the nature and value system of social work as
a profession. Students will also examine and critique the manner in which social, economic, and political structures impact
diverse groups in society. Students will focus on their own
responsibilities in society, as well as examine their personal
value system in relation to special concerns, such as poverty
and the "isms." Detailed information will be sent to students
at the close of Interim registration.

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

SOC 295-J
Instructor: James Vela-McConnell
Street gangs and warfare. Police brutality and genocide.
Domestic abuse and terrorism. What are the dynamics underlying these and other forms of violence?What do they have in
common? How do they differ? This course takes violence in
its many forms as a topic for sociological analysis and concludes with an examination of non-violent alternatives. With
this in mind, we will compare different theoretical perspectives on violence, such as psychological, social psychological,
and socio-cultural perspectives. The course will involve a
combination of lecture and discussion based on readings and
videos, debate of current issues in the field, and guest speakers
from and field trips to local organizations dealing with problems of violence. Students will be expected to research, write
about, and present on the sociological dimensions of a particular form of violence. In addition, there will be short reaction
papers based on the readings, and classroom participation
will be an important part of grading. This course has a lab
fee of $25 payable the first day of class to the instructor.

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

eneval Information
Introduction to Augsburg Weekend College
Purpose
I
I
Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults
who desire college experience but who work or have other commitments
during the week. It is a means by which men and women may earn a
bachelor's degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for
career change, or pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
The Augsburg Weekend College program is designed to meet the needs
and preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the
assumption that the men and women who enroll in Weekend College
will be mature, self-disciplined and well-motivated adult learners who
seek a balance of classroclm experience and individualized study. Each
course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated on-campus study
separated by time for independent study and class preparation.
Alternate Weekends
To accommodate this format for learning, classes meet on alternate
weekends for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday
morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon.* Each class selected
by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods.
Weekend College students may take from one to four different courses by
attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg Weekend College is participation in a
community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the
student is involved in a stable community that provides opportunity and
encouragement to become involved in interaction both in and out of the
classroom. This community will be enriched by the presence of both men
and women with a variety of work and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages
Weekend College students to make use of college facilities such as the
library and college center, to take the opportunity of having shared meals
and coffee breaks, to participate in optional lunchtime seminars, and to
attend other college activities such as music and dramatic presentations
and athletic events.
*Laboratory sections or additional class hours may be scheduled on evenings
during the week.
Information Sessions
Adults who are interested in Augsburg Weekend College are encouraged
to attend one of the information sessions that are scheduled throughout
the year. These information sessions are free of charge and are
approximately 2 hours in length. Please call the Weekend College Office
(330-1782)to receive further details on these information sessions or to

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

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

Introducing Augsburg College
Education
in a Real World
(C tt~dentscommonly speak of graduating from college
as a
L*'way of getting i n t ~"the real world!' In fact, Auphurg
College provides students with an education in a real world. The
diversity of the faculty, staff, and student body, the structure of
the curriculum, and the academic environment minor the camplexity of Life in contemporary society.
The College's location in and involvement with a metropolitan
setting offer continuous access to cultural opportunities, career
experiences, and social realities that enrich shtdents' educations.
Augsburg's commitment to the liberal arts recognizes that the
reality in which contemporary persons live and the persons
themselves have been shaped by the tradition and history horn
which they come. The real world was not made this morning, and
it is not simple. Only a broad education can present our world as
it is and give persons the ability to deal with it. Similar1y,
Augsburg College's continuing dedication to its heritage as a
college of the church affirms a belief that the world is the creation
of a loving God and that human persons are inescapably spiritual
beings.
The College Mission Statement
These qualities of an Augshrg education flow from its mission state
ment which declares that the College exists to provide high quality
educational opportunities which are based in the liberal arts and shaped
by the faith arid vaIues of the Christian church and by the context of a
great metropolitan center.
Augsburgs location in the heart d the city represents the loom on which
the multialored fabric of its idmtity has been woven. WhiIe students
are pmpafed to take a place in and make a contibution to the worId in
which they Iive, they are educated to be critical of the quality of life in
their society and to be reflective of their own d u e s as they respond to it.
"... based in the liberal arts"
The academic program emphasizes the continuing vaZiditg of the liberal
arts as a foundation for developing the Iife of the mind. Augsbmg
CoIIege's faculty are dedicaid to chatlengvlg their students to achiwe
the highest academic standards while supporting &em in that endeavor
with excenent teaching and individual attention
Students are expected to develop their abilities in critical thinking and
communicationand to gain sensitivity to and appreciation for their own
and other cultures. Each student is encouraged to contemplate the
eternal philosophical and spiritual questions of human life and of
personal values and ethics. At Augsburg the great scholars, thinkers,
writers, and artists of the past and present are studied and valued.
Augsbtrrg College considers art understandingof the content and
method of sdcnce, a arecognition of the place of technology,and an
understanding of ways to maintain a sound body as important elements
of a complete education.
This insistence on the breadth of a traditional liberal arts education
reflects a firm belief that human beings are more than their ability to
perfom a job. It reftwrs further a concerted attempt to direct students
toward a full development of the many facets and capacities of the
educated person.
"...within the context of a
great metropolitan center"
Yet, bounded as it is by an interslate freeway and the center of a vital city,
Augsburg CoLlege is no ivory tower escape from the real world. The
College community continually interacts with the city by attending
culhrral events and civic activities and by inviting dty residents and
visitors to the campus as lecturers, performers, and mmfms.The city
M ~ maslaboratory for experiential leaning through Internships,
professional field experiences, and Cooperative Education.
"...and shaped b y faith and values"
This involvement with the real world is a reflection of Augsburg's
spiritual heritage which values all that God has created. While its
tradition supports intellectual freedom in the search for truth, the
ColIege affirmsits belief that all students should reflect upon their
ethical and spiritual values as part of becoming educated. Students are
encouraged though religion courses and through opportunities on
campus for the practice and examination of spirituality to consider their
relationship to God, to others?to society, and to the world,
Traditionally Augsburg College has insisted that an aspect of these
relationships is contained in the motto: "Education for Service." In these
words the College expresses a belief that, whatever career they pursue,
graduates should consider the duty of citizens to contribute to the
common good through service to others.
w
ithin the larger community of the city and the world,
Augsburg College is its own community. It is a community of
support and collegiality composed of persons of diverse talents; of
varied ethnic, national, cultural, and religious backgrounds; and of
complementary interests and orientations. Through a competent, committed faculty and a dedicated staff, Augsburg College builds with its
students a real world in which the whole person can be educated and
developed.
About
Augsburg
A College of the Church
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by N o r w e a n Lutherans in
America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in
Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September 1869, in
MarshalI, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The first college
students were enrolled in 1874 and the first graduation was in 1879.
Early Leaders
Establish a Direction
August Weenaas was Augsburg's first president (1869-1876).
Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway - Sven Oftedal
and Georg Sverdrup. These three men dearly articulated the direction of
Augsburg: toeducateNorwegianLutherans to minister lo immigrants;and
to provide such "coI1eg-e" studies tha t would prepare studentsfor theoIogical study.
In 1874they proposed a three part pram first -train ministerial candidates,
second - prepare future theological students and third - educate the
farmer, worker, and businessman. The statement stressed that a good
education is also practical.
Augsburg's next two presidents also emphatically rejected ivory tower
concepts of education. This commitment to church and community has
been Augsburg's theme for over one hundred years.
Education for Service
Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist" college, GeorgSverdrup, Augsburg's
second president (1876-1907), required students to get pre-ministerial
experience in city congregations. Student involvement in the community
gave early expression to the concept of Augsburg's motto, "Education for
Service."
In the 1890s,Augsburg leadersformed the Friendsof Augsburg, later called
the Lutheran Free Church. The church was a group of independent congregations committed to congregationalautonomy and personal Christianity.
This change made Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the
small Lutheran body. But the collegedivision was still important primarily
as an attachment to the seminary.
The Focus Changes
This attitude began to change after World War I. In 1911Georg SverdrupJr.
became President. He worked to develop college departments with an
appeal to a broader range of students than just those intending to be
ministers. Augsburg' admitted women in 1922 under the leadership of
Gerda Mortensen, Dean of Women. She spent the next 52 years at the
College as a teacher and administrator.
The College's mission assumed a double character -ministerial preparation together with a more general education for life in society. In 1937,
Augsburg elected Bemhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly teacher,
to be president (1938-1962).His involvementin ecumenical and civic circles
made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city life.
After World War 11,Augsburg leadersmade vigorous efforts to expand and
improve academic offerings. Now the College was a larger part of the
institution than the seminary, and received the most attention.
Accreditation for the College
Augsburg added departments essential to a liberal arts college, offeringa
modem college program based on general education requirements and
elective majors. With cursimlum change came a long effort to become
accredited.
The College reached full accreditation in 1954, although many alumni had
entered graduate schools and teaching positions long before that time.
A study in 1962 defined the College's mission now as serving the good
society as a whole first, and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church
second. The Seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther
Northwestern Seminary)in St. Paul in 1963.
A College in the City
President Oscar A. Anderson (1963-1980)continued Augsburg's emphasis
on involvement with the city. He wanted to reach out to non-traditional
student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all p p l e .
During his years of leadership the College became a vita1 and integral part
of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg added the Music Hall, Mortensen
Tower, Umess Tower, the C o Z l e ~Center, Ice Arena and PsychoIogy
Building.
Since 1980 Augsbwg has been Ied by Charles S.Anderson We has continued Augsburg's commitment to the value of a libera1 arts education,
emphasizingdiversityin enrollment efforts, spiritual growth and freedom
and an academic program that draws on the Esources of the city as
extensions of the campus and classroom.
Serving the Non-traditional Student
Aupburg's American M i a n Program is recognized as mc~essful.The
program has had the highest retention rate of W a n studentsin Minnesota
-=me 85 percent.The Black Student Support Program, initiated in 1969,
has had a growing number ofstudents and supports a Black Student Union
and a newspaper distributed by the office.
The campus is accessible to the physimlly handicapped with a skywaytunnel-elevator system connecting ten major buildings. In only its second
year, Augsburg's program for the learning disabled had 30 students enrolled. The program received a state award for excellence.
Weekend College, started in 1982 with 69 students, had an enrollment of
over SO0 in fa11 1988. Through Weekend College, adult students can work
M l i m e and pursuea bachelor's degree that has a practicalfocus on a liberal
arts base.
In January of 1987 Augsburg initiated a Master of Arts in Leadership
program. As in Weekend College, students can work full-time and take
graduate courses leading to a master's degree.
These programs bring working add& to the campus. They are comple
mented by the College's Cooperative Education Progsam Cbegun in 19%)
that places Augsburg students into paid work experiences. Tfte Co-op
Education Program helps s tadents get career experience in additiun to their
classroom studies.
Augsburg Today

founders who believed:

learning laboratory for Augsburg students.

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

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

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

student life at Augsburg.
Student government is organized into the executive branch, the legislative
branch, and the judicial branch. Electionsare held in the spring for the next

learning environment depends, in part, upon his or her living conditions, a
variety of housing alternatives is provided. The residence hall program
promotes student growth by asking students to actively participate in
group decision-making.Each residence unit has one or more Resident Staff
who facilitate the process of group living and discuss personal concerns
with individua1,students.

in College-operatedhousing. Married student housing is available in annex
housing and South Hall. Students rent a room at the beginning of the fall
term for the entire school year. New students receive room assignments the
summer before they arrive at Augsburg. Upperclass students make housing
arrangements in the spring. All resident students must sign housing contracts.
Freshmen and transfer students are urged to make the tuition deposit by
June 1in order to secure housing. Students who deposit after June 1will be
provided housing only if space is available.
All students living on campus must pay an advance payment when they
sign the housing contract. The feeis credited to the students' accounts when
they move into the residence.

Urness Tower. This eleven story high-rise houses 324. Each floor is considered a house unit providing 36 students (two to a room), with their own
lounge, study and utility areas.

traditional residence hall living. It contains 104 one- and two-bedroom
apartments to accommodate 312 upperclass students.
South Hall -Contains 12 apartments housing 34 upperclass students.
West Hall -Contains 12 one-bedroom apartments housing 24 upperclass
students.
Annex Housing - This provides an alternative opportunity for group
living. Groups of upperclass men or women share living space, house
responsibilities, and cooking. Houses are located in the campus area. One
way to maximize the living and learning of your housing situation is to bid
for a Special Interest House. Groups of students have created exciting
projects by writing and implementing educational impact proposals on
such topics as Environmental Concerns, Men's and Women's Awareness,
International Living, Honors Program, and Scandinavian Studies.
Mortensen Tower is carpeted, air conditioned, and contains kitchen units.
It is otherwise unfurnished. In other residence halls or houses, rooms are
furnished except for bed linens, towels, blankets, bedspreads, and lamps.

and has provided for due process in matters of disciplinary action, grievances, and grade appeal. The Judicial Council is elected by students and
faculty and serves to conduct hearings and review matters of concern. Any
student who wishes to identify appropriate procedures for complaint
should contact the Vice President for Student Affairs.
The College operates in compliance with the Family Rights and Privacy Act
and Title IX. Students have the right to inspect all official records, files and
data which pertain to them and which are maintained in the Office of the

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

maximum of three courses can be earned in the two annual summer
sessions, one of four weeks and one of six weeks.
The calendar is coordinated with those of the four other colleges of the
Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities, so students can take courses on
another campus during the regular term. (See Registration.) January 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. The Interim
catalog, published in the fall of each year, is distributed to all students and
is available by contacting the Interim Office.In addition to classes offered

+ Faculty
The heart of any educational institutionis 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
research, including such varied studies as space physics, the history of
medieval spirituality, women in the Soviet Union, and homelessness in
American cities. Music faculty perform professionally on the local and
national level, and studio artists' works can be seen in buildings, galleries,
and shows around the country. Augsburg faculty see their research as
supportingtheir 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 counselors and participate regularly in campus activities. Every student is assigned a freshman adviser and chooses a major adviser. In this
close interaction, faculty act as both mentors and models for students.

make the library a favorite place to study. The main library houses over
160,000books, periodicals, records, tapes and films.Music, Chemistry, and
Art History slide libraries are located within the departmental areas.

Introduction to Interim
Interim is an integral part of the school year at Augsburg College. The
College followsa 4-1-4 calendar,with Fall and Spring semestersof 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 and 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 with either upper or lower division standing.
Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and the student must select.
Students registering for upper division standing should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading standard.
To graduate, an Augsburg student is required to complete 35 courses of
which at least three must be Interim courses (or one Interim less than the
number of years of full-time enrollment at Augsburg; e.g., a transfer
enrolled full time for two years is required to complete one Interim for
graduation).
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 1972Educational Amendments or Section504 of
the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, in its admissions policies,
educational programs, activities and employment practices.

and their societies wcrPp11ilowplzicr I societies. In recent decades
the human seeking of pcxsonal indcpcnduncc has led to chemistry
becoming a part of evcrychy 1i fc fo the point of actual dependence
on chemistry. We live in a korld of pesticides, fertilizers, plastics,
"the pill", food additives aiqdprocessed foods, vitamin supplements, the energy crisis, chcmical dependency, biocides, pollutants, drugs, searching for lifc cm other planets, genetic manipulation, and it goes on and on. Etnoiions and mental disorders can
often be traced to chemical irnbalancc. The common dragged out,
grumpy feeling after an afternoon nap is a result of a chemical imbalance. The na turc of a hangover is the result of a complex system
of altered body chemistry. Even lcarhi ng appears to be the result
of chemical reaction to form a "rncrnoly molecule". Most of the
problems we &ce are molecular in na tnrc. What thenbut chemistry
can better help us to understand ourselves, our society, our world,
and our universe? Come join us as we b k c a molecular look at the
human ct~ndition.

Social Work and Community Services
in Great Britain
SWK 346-49061
7y!-!L
/
- I
Instructor: Rosemary Link
Great Britain is an exciting mixture of ancient and modern -ancient
in its culture and modern in its social policies. The course explores
social work services with this dual focus. We will visit a variety of
community agencies: formal public, private, and natural helping
networks in a range of urban and rural settings. In order to experience the nation's culture, we will be invited to English family
homes, meet with social work students, attend theatre performances, and visit historic treasures.
London is the nerve center for the country's resources and we will
begin by visiting some of its foremost community institutions such
as Great Ormond Street Childrensl Hospital and Toynbee Hall
Settlement. With the help of English social work students, we will
unravel the post Second World War commitment to universal
socialpolicies. These policies have established servicesavailable to
all citizensin health, education, income maintenance, housing, and
personal social servics. They also provide the major working turf
of the social work profession.
As a contrast to the inner city of London, we will visit Exeter and
explore the rural and beautiful coastal West Country. In addition
to the formal 'public' social work agencies such as Probation and
Corrections, we will make contact with informal services and the
small, more extended family oriented fishing and farming communities.
Throughout the course, there will be an emphasis on understanding current national policies and attitudes through cultural and
literary connections. Therefore, visits to the National Theatre, The
Houscs of Parliament, cathedrals, and ancient community sites
such asOxford are an integral part of rmgnizingand appreciating
the wholc community. CuIturc and history come to lifc duringday
excurtions through the gcntle English countryside ta Oxford and
Stratford, Warwick and Coventry, Bath and Canterbury.
Students will complement their direct experience by reading the
British press and current social policy pamphlets, journals, and
books. Suggested Readings: A. Kahn and S. Kammerman, Not the
Poor Alone; M . Bruce, The Rise of Fhe Welfare Stake; P.Barclay, Social
Workers: T h i r Role and Tmks; Charlcs Dickens, Oliver Twisf; any
play by G.B.Shaw, and the 'quality prcsd - The Gtdardinn, The
Times, The Telegraph.
Student evaluation will be based on a summary of a reflective
journal, an agency study, a critique of a current socialpolicy (which
includes a comparison with their American experience), and participation in visits and discussions. The course is offered on a P/
NP basis.
The comprehensivefee of $1,995 includes air and surfacetravel, accommodations, six dinners, four theater tickets and a one week
London travel pass.
Registration for this interim must be made before October 26 at
the Office of International Programs.

Introduction to Augsburg Weekend College
Purpose
Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults
who desire college experience but who work or have other commitments
during the week. It is a means by which men and women may earn a
bachelor's degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for
career change, or pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
The Augsburg Weekend College program is designed to meet the needs
and preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the
assumption that the men and women who enroll in Weekend College
will be mature, self-disciplined and well-motivated adult learners who
seek a balance of classroom experience and individualized study. Each
course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated on-campus study
separated by time for independent study and class preparation.
Alternate Weekends
To accommodate this format for learning, classes meet on alternate
weekends for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday
morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon.* Each class selected
by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods.
Weekend College students may take from one to four different courses by
attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg Weekend College is participation in a
community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the
student is involved in a stable community that provides opportunity and
encouragement to become involved in interaction both in and out of the
classroom. This community will be enriched by the presence of both men
and women with a variety of work and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages
Weekend College students to make use of college facilities such as the
library and college center, to take the opportunity of having shared meals
and coffee breaks, to participate in optional lunchtime seminars, and to
attend other college activities such as music and dramatic presentations
and athletic events.
*Laboratory sections or additional class hours may be scheduled on evenings
during the week.
Information Sessions
Adults who are interested in Augsburg Weekend College are encouraged
to attend one of the information sessions that are scheduled throughout
the year. These information sessions are free of charge and are
approximately 2 hours in length. Please call the Weekend College Office
(330-1782) to receive further details on these information sessions or to

Major for Secondary Teaching Licensure in Social Studies
Students preparing to teach social studies on the high school level must
complete, in addition to the professional requirements to be met within
the Department of Education, a competency program designed to
provide a broad foundation in the social sciences. Students must
complete a major in one of five fields - Economics, History, Political
Science, Psychology or Sociology (the History major is described below)
plus 7 courses (ECO 112 or 113, Human Geography, HIS 222, POL 158,
PSY 105, SOC 121 and 336). Students considering a career in social
studies education should consult, as soon as possible, the Augsburg
Department of Education and the Social Studies Coordinator.
History Major: 8 courses plus 1seminar. At least four of these courses
must be upper division. A major must have at least one course (either
survey or upper level) from each of the four areas: Ancient and Medieval;
Modern Europe; U.S.; and non-Western.
Coaching Endorsement
Students interested in adding a coaching endorsement must complete
required courses in the Physical Education program. If interested, please
contact the Education Department at 330-1130 for further information.
English
Those who study English believe that an intense concern for words, ideas
and images helps us understand who we are and who we can become.
Writing helps us clarify and share our thoughts. Literature helps us
contemplate the pains and joys of human existence. Through English
study we see life's complexity, experience life as some others do, and
understand better the world in which we live and work.
English relates closely to other majors. With the other arts, English is
concerned with the pleasure that comes from artistic creation and with
the contemplation of works of art. With psychology and sociology,
English is concerned with individual and group behavior. With
philosophy, English is interested in ideas and the relation between
meaning and language. With science, English is interested in discovering
order and determining structures. With speech and communications,
English studies the effective use of language. With history and the other
social sciences and humanities, English studies the way people have
acted and thought at different times and in different cultures.
Major: 9 courses above 111, including 225; one course in American
literature; one course in Western literary tradition (271or 272); and three
courses in British literature, one on literature before 1660 (for example, 331
or 438) and one that surveys a number of writers (336,337, 423). Majors
are encouraged to take ENG 245 early in their college work and to consult
their departmental advisor regularly. A student with a double major or
special program that involves considerable work in the English
department should also work closely with an advisor in the department.
English-Language Arts Teaching Major: 10 courses, including those
listed under the major, a course in linguistics, and an internship in the
teaching of writing. One course must include a component in nonWestern literature. In addition, the ACTC courses Communications Skills
in the English Classroom and Teaching Mass Media are required.
Courses in early American literature, Shakespeare, and film are
recommended. Several of the required courses are not offered on
Weekends. Students in this program must work with advisers in the
English Department and the Education Department in order to meet the
professional requirements within the Education Department as well as
requirements in the major.
New licensure rules become effective July 1, 1989. Students who seek
licensure after that time will be subject to the new licensure rules.
Minor: 5 courses above 111including one course in British literature and
one writing course above the freshman level (223, 225, 226, or 227).
Management Information Systems (MIS)

students are able to complete minors in the following areas:
Psychology Minor
5 courses including 105, with a minimum of 2 courses at Augsburg. Not

minor.
Religion Minor
5 courses approved by the department.
Sociology Minor
5 courses including 121 and two upper division courses (numbered 300
and above).
Dean's List
The Dean's List is compiled after each semester, listing students whose
grade point average for a semester is 3.5 or better, based on a minimum of
two full courses, or equivalent, graded on the traditional grading system,
with no incompletes in courses offered for credit.
Probation and Dismissal
A student will be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term if
his or her achievement is unsatisfactory. Dismissal from the College is not
automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on Student Standing.
A student who has a poor academic record may be strongly advised to
withdraw before the end of the term. A student who has been on
probation for two terms and withdraws from the College voluntarily must
have special permission to re-enroll. See Augsburg College Catalog for
complete explanation.
Grading Procedures
Evaluation and Grading
Student achievement in courses is measured primarily by final
examinations. Shorter tests, written papers, oral reports, and other types
of evaluation also are used.
Most courses are offered with grading options - traditional grading on a
4.0 to 0.0 scale or the PasslNo Credit system, in which P means a grade of
2.0 or better and N means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0. Students
are cautioned to use the PIN grade option with care since some graduate
and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of Pgraded courses, or rank each as a "C." Transfer students are cautioned
that P-graded courses do not count in the requirement that 14
traditionally graded courses be earned at Augsburg in order to be
considered for graduation with distinction. See PIN limitations under
Graduation Requirements in the Augsburg College Catalog.
Certain courses are offered on one grading system only. Sociology 265 is
graded only on the PIN grading system and some education courses are
graded only on the PIN system or only on the traditional system. English
111is graded P or N, or 2.0-4.01N. Some other courses are graded only P,
1.0, N. Lifetime Sports are graded P1O.O.
In courses where this is a choice, students will be graded on the
traditional system unless they indicate on their registration that they wish
to use the PIN grading option. Any changes in choice of grading system
must be made according to dates published each term. A fee is charged
for any changes made after Registration.
Explanation of Grades
Number grades are used with these definitions:
4.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence
3.5
3.0 Achieves above basic course standards
2.5
2.0 Meets basic standards for the course
1.5
1.0 performance below basic course standards
0.5
0.0 Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course)
Grade of P (Pass) or N (No credit) are not computed in the grade point
average. A grade of P represents work at or above the 2.0 level; N
represents work at the 1.5 or below level.
An incomplete grade may be given only in the case of extreme
emergency. To receive it, a student must file a petition with the
Committee on Student Standing stating the reasons for the request, the
plan and date for removing it, and comments from the instructor. If
permission is granted, the incomplete must be removed during the
following semester, or it becomes the grade submitted by the teacher
along with the incomplete.
Internships, independent studies, and directed studies may sometimes
last longer than one term. When this is the case, they must be completed
by the grading deadlines within one year from the beginning of the first
term of registration. A grade of X is given by the instructor to indicate that
the study is extended. It is expected that students given X extensions will
continue to communicate with their instructors and demonstrate that
satisfactory progress is being maintained. The Registrar's Office will
automatically continue the registration in response to an X grade. A final
grade will be issued at the end of the term in whcih the work is
completed and evaluated (but not longer than one year). An instructor
reserves the discretion of not giving an X where satisfactory progress is
not demonstrated. Withdrawal from college, or dropping these continued
courses will terminate their registration. Under this circumstance, a reregistration as 1X by the student would be necessary if done during
registration periods within one year of initial registration; if done after
one year a new registration would be necessary.
Auditing Courses
Students who wish to take courses without credit or grade may do so by
registering for Audit (V). The charge for auditing a course is listed under
Fees and Payment Schedule. Students who audit a course should confer
with the instructor within two weeks of the beginning of the term to
determine expectations, attendance and any other requirement. If
expectations have been met, the course will be listed on the transcript as
having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the course will
be listed with a grade of W (Withdrawn).
Grade Point Average
The grade point average (GPA) is based on final grades for all work at
Augsburg. It does not include credit and grade points for work
transferred from other colleges. Courses taken on the PIN grading option
are recorded, but not computed in the GPA.
Classification
Students are classified in August and at the end of fall and winter terms.
Sophomores - 7 courses completed with at least 14 grade points.
Junior - 16 courses completed with at least 32 grade points.
Seniors - 25 courses completed with at least 50 grade points.
Withdrawal from College
Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are registered,
since this results in a failing grade on the official record. Cancellation of
courses or withdrawal from college must be done in the Registrar's Office.
Withdrawal from college cannot occur during final examination week
unless a petition is approved by the Student Standing Committee.
Withdrawal from college and resulting adjustments in accounts are
effective as of the date the completed Withdrawal From College form is
returned to the Registrar's Office.
Graduation with Distinction
Graduation with distinction is determined as follows:
Summa cum laude 3.8 to 4.0 cumulative GPA
Magna cum laude 3.6 up to but not including 3.8 cumulative GPA
Cum laude 3.3 up to but not including 3.6 cumulative GPA
To qualify for graduation with distinction, transfer students must have
completed two years (14 traditionally graded courses) of work at
Augsburg .
Assessment of Previous Learning (APL)
Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in
many life situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit
recognition within the disciplines that compose the academic programs
of a liberal arts college. The APL program (Assessment of Previous
Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous
learning, other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward
the completion of a bachelor's degree.
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit
recognition at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two essential
criteria: (1) it is relevant to coursework in a field of study within the
Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and (2) it can be objectively
demonstrated either by comprehensive examination or committee
evaluation. The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by
which students may have their previous learning assessed for credit
recognition:
CLEP (College Level Examination Program)
Students who achieve acceptable scores in CLEP exams may receive
academic credit in Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a
variety of general and specific subject areas. For more information,
contact Weekend College Admissions (330-1792) or the regional CLEP
center at the University of Minnesota (624-3323).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and do
not have transcript evidence of completed work may request a
departmental assessment of previous learning. This will most often
include an examination that covers the essential components of the
course involved. For more information, contact the Registrar's Office
(330-1036).
CAP (Credit Assessment Process)
This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee
completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the
student. Informal meetings and consultation are provided for students
who wish to prepare a portfolio of previous learning for credit

Those who hope to lead had better understand both
rationally and intuitively the people who might be theix
followers, and the society in which they are embedded.
They had better comprehend the values of our common
culture, past and present, know how our political and
economic systems work, and understand how and why
science has changed the world ... Leaders need
specialists as advisers and staff members. But leaders
themselves are generalists ... At higher levels of
leader hip they cannot achieve their full potential
without considerable breadth of knowledge. Only this
way can they shape the contexts for decisions where
expert knowledge is used.

Community of learners
Essential to the goals of the Master of Arts in Leadership is
participation in a community of learners. Learning can be
enhanced when the student is involved in a stable community that
provides opportunity and encouragement for active participation
both in and out of the classroom. This community will be enriched
by the presence of men and women who bring to the program a
variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of
community interaction, Augsburg encourages graduate students to
make use of college facilities such as the library, meeting rooms and
college center; to take the opportunity of having shared meals and
coffee breaks; to participate in optional lunchtime seminars; and to
attend other college activities such as music and dramatic
presentations and athletic events.
leadership Practicum
.
I·
Master of Arts in Leadership students enroll in a half course called
"Leadership Practicum." Students are required to enroll in this
professional assessment and development course for six terms
during their graduate work at Augsburg. Upon completion of the
entire practicum, students receive a half course credit. In each
term, one Saturday and one Thursday evening are devoted to
"Leadership Practicum."
Early in the program a major component of this practicum is a fullday professional assessment to determine students' abilities and
potential relative to each of the outcomes of the Leadership
Development Model (see page 7) . Assessment instruments
include paper and pencil exercises and simulation and group
experiences. Following the assessment students meet individually
with a trained assessor who provides guidance in personal goal
setting and in the creation of a professional development plan or
"blueprint:'
In subsequent terms "Leadership Practicum" includes workshops
designed to meet the needs of the students in the following areas:
communication skills, self-assessment measures, group processes,
and other professional development topics identified by graduate
students and staff.
"Leadership Practicum'' concludes with a final assessment followed
by an individual meeting with a trained assessor.
The Master of Arts in Leadership program is composed of 12
courses. Each course unites two or more liberal arts disciplines,
ncournge pursuit of the designated outcomes, and uses a variety
of learning t clrniqu app ropriate to adult learners. In tructional
techniques ar varied, u h as ca e tudy, d bate, written and oral
presentations and group c ctivity. Th s tech niques, which have
had demonstra ted ·ucce in advanced cour e , d v lop targeted
l ader hip abilities and understandings. Continual reinforcement
occur·, s students employ these capacities in multiple c urses.
Students ar encouraged to c abilili sand understandings as

2.5
2.0 Achieves the minimum passing standard
P

student falls below a 3.0 average, the student will be placed on
probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point
average must be restored in order for a student to be removed from

Program Committee. Students who leave the program for more
than one term must request a leave of absence in writing from the

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 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. There will be no summer Interim in 1988.
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 and 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 with either upper or lower division standing. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and the student
must select. Students registering for upper division standing should
anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading
standard.
To graduate, an Augsburg student is required to complete 35
courses of which at least three must be Interim courses (or one Interim less than the number of years of full-time enrollment at Augsburg; e.g., a transfer enrolled full time for two years is required to
complete one Interim for graduation).
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.

About this Catalog
The catalog lists courses by departments. Departments are listed in
alphabetical order. At the end of the book are listings of other
courses not offered by Augsburg but recognized by the college for
Interim credit. Further 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.
Options
International Interims - Students are invited to be part of one of the
26 international interims offered by the Upper Midwest Association
for International Education (UMAIE). These course opportunities
are listed near the end of this catalog.
Internships - Students electing an internship must present a completed internship learning contract to the Internship Office (Memorial 230) no later than Tuesday, November 24. Contract forms are
available in the same 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
or directed study per interim. Students choosing to pursue independent or directed study must:
1.Meet departmental requirements.
2. Present to the Registrar for approval a copy of the proposed
study plan approved by the supervising faculty member. This
proposal must be submitted at least one week before registration and no later than December 4. Appropriate study proposal
forms can be obtained in the Interim 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 Interims 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
Twin Cities 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 distribution requirements.
This qualification particularly affects courses offered for the Religion requirement.
Visiting Students
Augsburg College welcomes students from other 4-14 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 $560
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.

1 Biological Evolution
BIO 107-48003
Instructor: Ralph Sulerud
That organisms have evolved and, accordingly, all creatures are biologically related are probably the most significant conclusions which biology has contributed to human
knowledge. The anti-evolutionist arguments of the "scientific creationist" will be investigated in this course. However, to the vast majority of biologists evolution is accepted as a fact, and the evidence in its support will be
examined.
Biologists do not agree concerning the mechanisms and
pace of evolution. Indeed, theories as to these matters have
evolved and continue to do so. Much of the course will
involve historical study of evolutionary thought from preDarwinian times to the present. Finally, we will address the
course of evolution from the origin of life itself to the origin of human life.
There will be a variety of readings, and classes will consist
of lectures and discussions. Grading will be based primarily on quizzes and tests.

B S 270-48004
Instructor: Dick Herzog
In this course we will focus on the responsibilities of business to society and consider problems that businesses and
business people face in a world of competing value systems. We will explore the moral foundations of capitalism
and the use of reason to study systematically business conduct and behavior.
Topics will include discrimination/affirmative action,
truth in advertising, insider information, corporate take
overs and green mail, multinational corporations and so
on.
There will be lectures, discussions and probably some
guests. Students will write and defend in class two essays
on assigned topics. There will be a final examination.
Prerequisite: Ethics recommended

Room: Old Main 21
Management Simulation Games
BUS 278-48071/378-48072
Instructor: Amin Kader
During this course, students will be grouped into teams to
play a computerized business management exercise. Each
team will control a company which manufactures and sells
similar products. Each team will attempt to outperform
other teams by selecting what appears to be the optimal
operating strategy. This strategy will involve setting production volume, marketing expenditures, and selling prices
and determining plant and securities investments as well as
stockholders dividends.
Students registering for upper division credit will be expected to have had at least one business course and to be
able to apply business concepts learned.
The lower division credit is designed for students who are
interested in business but who have had no academic business training. This level will require students to rely on
systematic and deductive analysis which will allow students to discover for themselves the relationship between
the various component parts of the business decision. The
lower version of the computerized game will be used for
this group.

Chemistry
'
fur Changing Times
CHE 100-48005
Instructor: Arlin Gyberg
This is a non-laboratory chemistry course based on the
very 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 are 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 meets a
distribution need but does not satisfy prerequisites for
Chemistry 106 or 116.
Distribution: Biology-Chemistry
Time: I1
Room: Science 315
Chemistry in Health
CHE 120-48006
Instructor: John Holum
This course will progress from a study of basic principles
of chemistry (with emphasis on acid-base equilibria) to a
study of the chemical reactions by which our bodies manage the transport of oxygen and waste carbon dioxide in
the chemistry of cellular respiration. We shall study several
situations in which this chemistry goes awry - drug overdoses, overbreathing at high altitudes, emphysema, diabetes, hysterics, and pulmonary diseases. There will be some
attention to the nature of chemistry in particular and science in general. Average of four two-hour lectures per
week with demonstrations; evaluations by hour examinations and a final. This course meets distribution but does
not count toward a chemistry major or minor.
Distribution: Biology-Chemistry
Time: I
Room: Science 315
History of Chemistry
CHE 125-48061
Instructor: Jean C. Kung
This course seeks to outline the influence of history on the
discovery of the elements. Ancient peoples discovered and
used a few elements setting the prologue for chemistry. We
will examine the discoveries of the elements, their utility
and the development of chemistry from ancient concepts
to alchemy to the powerful modern science of today. The
course grade will be based primarily upon a term paper.

fke Once and Future King: Arthur Through
the Ages
ENG 130-48018/ENG 430-48025
Instructor: Joan Griffin
"Hic jacet Arthurus Rex quondam rexque futurus (Here lies
King Arthur, the once and future king)." These words, legend says, are engraved on the tomb of the greatest king
who ever lived, Arthur of Britain.
But another tradition says that Arthur never died. Instead,
he was taken to the magical island of Avalon after he was
wounded in his last battle. There he will remain until the
world has need of a leader as great as he.
In fact Arthur has returned again and again in myth, legend, poetry, novels, and films. Arthur (and Arthurian
themes) have appeared in the works of great writers like
T.S. Eliot and James Joyce. But he's appeared just as often
on the best seller lists (in novels by Mary Stewart, for example), on the stage (Camelot) and in the movies (Excalibur).
King Arthur is as compelling a figure in modern imagination as he was in medieval literature. Why7 Who is this
Arthur7 Who was he in his own time, and what has he
become throughout the centuries7
Our quest for the meaning of King Arthur will take us
from medieval to modern times. We will look at classics
like Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morta D'Arthur, and Alfred,
Lord Tennyson's Idylls of the King. We will also look at
more popular works like T.H. White's Once and Future
King and movies like Monty Python and the Holy Grail
and Excalibur.
Evaluation will be based on a number of short papers, contributions to class discussion, and an exam. Students enrolling for upper division credit will also be asked to lead a
class discussion and write a long paper based on additional
readings.
Prerequisites: ENG 111Effective Writing (or consent of instructor)

Rock 'N' Roll: Lyric, Metaphor, Lore
ENG 355-48019
Instructor: John Mitchell
Devotees of rock and roll music tend neither to listen to the
lyrics nor to understand them when they do, probably by
preference. This course will examine the language of rock
and roll, emphasizing figures of speech and other poetic
techniques (metaphor, irony, etc.) and their thematic implications. Feature films, ranging from Blackboard Jungle to
Woodstock to The Wall, will also be examined for their
cultural implications and themes. Students will be required
to take tests and to write an extended analysis based upon
assigned readings and the use of language in the music. A
fee will be charged to help pay for film rentals.
Prerequisites: ENG Ill-Effective Writing
Time: I1
Room: Science 123
Five College Advanced Short Fiction
Writing
ENG 362-48058
Instructor: Carol Bly
This course will focus on writing short stories, but will also
include a study of basic fiction theory and the reading of
excellent works for use as examples. There will be frequent
in-class exercises, short (200 word) homework fiction to
write, peer and class critiquing and frequent conferences
with the instructor. Small group work will be encouraged.
We will explore sophisticated means of writing short
American literature--with emphasis on generosity of plot,
sensuous detail in place and time settings, presentation of
characters, brisk and lovely language as well as we can
manage.
Grades will be based on writing, class participation and
evidence of the grasp of advanced literary principles.

They were written in Yiddish. How did expressions like
"chuspe," "shnook," "klutz," "kitch," "schmaltz," and
"shitik" get into English? Again, the answer is Yiddish. Yiddish is closely related to German and in this interim you
can learn to read Yiddish as well as you can read German.

The course will focus on taking the student to a competent
level of sailboat handling (anchoring, mooring, helming
and crewing). The student will live aboard a 39 foot fixed
keel sailboat with five other people and will function as an
active member of the crew. Actual on the water instruction
will be the major part of the course. Sailing will include
cruises to the various islands and cays in the British and
American Virgin Islands.
Evaluation will be based on performance as a crew member as well as a written final exam.

INS 18848063
Instructor: Bruce Reichenbach
What is it to be a human being? We will first raise questions about the extent of our knowledge, about the meaning of life, and about values. Secondly, we will explore
how individuals are related to their society. We will analyze, among other things, the nature and purpose of education and the role of the individual in the state. Finally, we
will focus on the impact which contemporary developments in artificial intelligence have on how we view ourselves.
The course will emphasize reading original sources from
various historical periods, and frequent written interaction
with those readings. Several short papers plus written
preparation for small group discussions will be expected.
Prerequisite: Freshmen only

Images of America: From Wilderness
Forest to Urban Sprawl
EVE
INS 188-48064
Instructor: Ron Palosaari
When Europeans first settled in America they found themselves in a wilderness they hoped to transform into a garden. We modern Americans find ourselves in an increasingly urbanized environment and want simultaneously to
transform the city to make it more liveable and also to flee
the city and escape its problems by going back to nature.
In this course we will study some works of literature and
other texts that will help us understand how we got our
attitudes toward city and country. We will consider the
Greek development of the idea of the city, move on to the
Hebrew and Christian conceptions of the ideal society and
then study some of the development of American ideas
about country and city. Students will be expected to develop a personal statement of their attitudes towards the
rural and the urban. Students will write three papers and
take a final examination. We will take a field trip or two
and have several guest speakers.

Instructor: Richard Nelson
It has often been observed that leadership cannot be
taught. While that is probably true, it is definitely true that
leaders and leadership can be profitably studied. In this
course we will study leadership within the context of the
city. Through readings, discussion, and lectures we will
view the ancient and modern city and selected problems
within urban culture which require the development of
various types of leaders and styles of leadership. During
the first two weeks of class we will read from texts and
view films which will provide us with background material, and since all events are rooted in time, much of this
material will be historical in nature. The third week of the
course will be devoted to time spent observing the city.
Each student will visit with a leader in our metropolitan
community whom you will interview in order to gain primary data about his or her role as a leader. In addition,
you will work in teams to view the life of the city and
formulate questions and observations about the nature of
our metropolitan area. In the final week of the class we will
reserve time for individual and team reports to be given in
class. During the course you will write four short papers
(3-4 pages), prepare oral reports based on your week in the
city, and write three short exams. Each component, the
short papers, the oral reports, and the short exams will
comprise 30% of your final grade. Your participation in
discussions will count 10% of your final grade.

Instructor: Julie Bolton
The Twin Cities is among the three largest theatre centers
nationally. In this seminar we will use current local productions as a laboratory for our exploration of meaning in
drama and theories of drama (expectations and needs of
the audience, the nature of the dynamic process which is
related between the actor and audience, and the differentiation between the play and the production). Play productions which were available in 1987 were Shakespeare's As
You Like It, Chekhov's Uncle Vanya, Ping Chong's Nosferatu, and David Hare's A Map of the World among others.
The seminar will focus on the themes: city/rural, artificial/
real, technology and civilization/nature, sin and darkness/
healing and restoration. We will use as background material classical humanistic texts: Job, Plato's The Republic,
Shakespeare's Macbeth, Adam's The Dynamo and the Virgin and Lewis Mumford's City in History.
Three productions will be viewed on which three 3-5 page
critical reviews will be written and shared with the group
as a basis for discussions. Research problems will require
library use. Play productions will be supported by visits to
art museums. There will be a fee for play admissions.

H Social Work and Community Services in
Great Britain
SWK 346-48059
Instructor: Rosemary Link
Great Britain is an exciting mixture of ancient and modern
- ancient in its culture and modern in its social policies.
The course explores social work services with this dual focus. We will visit a variety of community agencies: formal
public, private, and natural helping networks in a range of
urban and rural settings. In order to experience the nation's
culture, we will be invited to English family homes, meet
with social work students, attend theatre performances,
and visit historic treasures.
London is the nerve center for the countrv's resources and
we will begin by visiting some of its foremost community
institutions such as Great Ormond Street Childrens' Hospital and Toynbee Hall Settlement. With the help of English
social work students, we will unravel the post Second
World War commitment to universal social policies. These
policies have established services available to all citizens in
health, education, income maintenance, housing, and personal social services. They also provide the major working
turf of the social work profession.
As a contrast to the inner city of London, we will visit
Exeter and explore the rural and beautiful coastal West
Country. In addition to the formal 'public' social work
agencies such as Probation and Corrections, we will make
contact with informal services and the small, more extended family oriented fishing and farming communities.
Throughout the course, there will be an emphasis on understanding current national policies and attitudes through
cultural and literary connections. Therefore, visits to the
National Theatre, The Houses of Parliament, cathedrals,
and ancient community sites such as Oxford are an integral
part of recognizing and appreciating the whole community. Culture and history come to life during day excursions through the gentle English countryside to Oxford and
Stratford, Warwick and Coventry, Bath and Canterbury.
Students will complement their direct experience by reading the British press and current social policy pamphlets,
journals, and books. Suggested Readings: A. Kahn and S.
Kammerman, Not the Poor Alone; M . Bruce, The Rise o f
the Welfare State; l? Barclay, Social Workers: Their Role
and Tasks; Charles Dickens, Oliver Twist; any play by
G.B.Shaw, and the 'quality press' - The Guardian, The
Times, The Telegraph.
Student evaluation will be based on a summary of a reflective journal, an agency study, a critique of a current social
policy (which includes a comparison with their American
experience), and participation in visits and discussions.
The comprehensive fee of $1,965 includes air and surface
travel, accommodations, six dinners, four theater tickets
and a one week London travel pass.
Registration for this interim must be made before October
23 in The International Center, Old Main 20.

About Augsburg College
History
Augsburg College was founded in 1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin and moved to
Minneapolis in 1872. The name Augsburg College and Seminary changed in 1963
when the Lutheran Free Church merged with The American Lutheran Church.
Location
Augsburg's 23 acre campus is in the heart of the Twin Cities metropolitan area,
only blocks from downtown Minneapolis and the intersection of Interstate
Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent to the campus are Fairview and St. Mary's
hospitals, the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota and the
Mississippi River parkways.
Campus
Skyways, tunnels and elevators provide accessible connection between 9 of the 14
major buildings - student housing towers, College Center, main academic and
administrative halls, the Library and Music building.
Accessibility
We have made a major effort to become one of the most accessible campuses in
the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any of the nine major buildings without going outside. In addition to building changes, we have a student-run
program to increase awareness and provide extra help for students with disabilities.
Church Affiliation
Augsburg is a college of The American Lutheran Church. About 51% of the
students are Lutheran, 15%other Protestant and 15%Roman Catholic. Several
other affiliations are represented among students and faculty.
Non-Discrimination Policy
Augsburg College does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, national or
ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX of the
1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
as amended in its admission policies, educational programs, activities, and
employment practices.
Introduction to Augsburg Weekend College
Purpose
Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults who desire
college experience but who work or have other commitments during the week. It is
a means by which men and women may earn a bachelor's degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a personal interest in
one or more areas of the liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
The Augsburg Weekend College program is designed to meet the needs and
preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the assumption that the men
and women who enroll in Weekend College will be mature, selfdisciplined and
well-motivated adult learners who seek a balance of classroom experience and
individualized study. Each course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated
on-campus study separated by time for independent study and class preparation.
Alternate Weekends
To accommodate this format for learning, classes meet on alternate weekends for
three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each class selected by the student involves commitment
to one of these four class periods. Weekend College students may take from one to
four different courses by attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg Weekend College is participation in a community
of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the student is involved in a stable
community that provides opportunity and encouragement to become involved in
interaction both in and out of the classroom. This community will be enriched by
the presence of both men and women with a variety of work and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages Weekend
College students to make use of college facilities such as the library and college
center, to take the opportunity of having shared meals and coffee breaks, to participate in optional chapel services and lunchtime seminars, and to attend other college
activities such as music and dramatic presentations and athletic events.

courses with the English department chairperson, students should consult an
advisor in the Department of Education.
New licensure rules become effective July 1, 1989. Students who seek licensure
after that time will be subject to the new licensure rules.
Major for Secondary Teaching Licensure in Social Studies
Students preparing to teach social studies on the high school level must complete,
in addition to the professional requirements to be met within the Department of
Education, a competency program designed to provide a broad foundation in the
social sciences. Students must complete a major in one of five fields-Economics,

nglish
Those who study English believe that an intense concern for words, ideas and
images helps us understand who we are and who we can become. Writing helps us
clarify and share our thoughts. Literature helps us contemplate the pains and joys
of human existence. Through English study we see life's complexity, experience life
as some others do, and understand better the world in which-we live and work.
English relates closely to other majors. With the other arts, English is concerned
with the pleasure that comes from artistic creation and with the contemplation oE
works of art. With psychology and sociology, English is concerned with individual
and group behavior. With philosophy, English is interested in ideas and the
relation between meaning and language. With science, English is interested in discovering order and determining structures. With speech and communications,
English studies the effective use of language. With history and the other social
sciences and humanities, English studies the way people have acted and
thought at different times and in different cultures.
Major: 9 courses above 111, including 225; one course in American literature;
one course in Western literary tradition (271 or 272); and three courses in British
literature, one on literature before 1660 (for example, 331 or 438) and one that
surveys a number of writers (336, 337,423). Majors are encouraged to take
ENG 245 early in their college work and to consult their departmental advisor
regularly. A student with a double major or special program that involves considerable work in the English department should also work closely with an
advisor in the department.

Payment Options
Tuition is set on an annual basis payable in 3 equal installments at the beginning of
each Trimester. Registration is permitted only if the student's account for a previous term is paid in full as agreed. Augsburg College will not release Academic
transcripts until all student accounts are paid in full or, in the case of student loan
funds administered by the College (National Direct Student Loan), are current
according to established repayment schedules.
Augsburg Offers the Following Payment Options:
1) Trimester payments in full on day of Registration.
2) Payment Plan - Upon application and after College approval, a 3 month plan is
available each trimester.
3) Company Reimbursement - Full courses, or equivalent, which are company
reimbursed require a deposit of $100 per course reimbursed, with full payment
due within 45 days from the end of the term.
Refund Schedule
A per course tuition refund will be made on the following basis: (Students are
responsible for cancelling courses with the Registrar's Office in order to be eligible
for the tuition refund.)
Prior to the first scheduled class meeting - 100% (less a $75 Administrative Fee)
Prior to the second scheduled class meeting - 80%
Prior to the third scheduled class meeting - 60%
No refund after the third scheduled class meeting.
The refund schedule is eflecfive whefheror nof a student has allended classes.
All refunds of charges will be applied to the account of the student and all
adjustments for aid, loans, fines, and deposits, etc. will be made before eligibility
for a cash refund of any resulting credit balance is determined.
Special Grading Procedures
Most courses are offered with grading options - traditional grading on a 4.0 to 0.0
scale or the Pass/No Credit system, in which "P" means a grade of 2.0 or better
and "N" means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0. A student may not take
more than 8 courses on a PIN grading system, with only 2 courses in the major.
Students are cautioned to use the P/N grade option with care since some graduate
and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of
P-graded courses.
An incomplete grade may be given only in the case of extreme emergency. To
receive it, a student must file a petition with the Committee on Student Standing
stating the reasons for the request, the plan and date for removing it, and comments from the instructor. If permission is granted, the incomplete must be
removed during the following trimester, or it becomes the grade submitted by
the teacher along with the incomplete.
Withdrawal From College
Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are registered, since this
results in a failing grade on the official record. Cancellation of courses or withdrawal from College must be done in the Registrar's Office. Withdrawal from
college cannot occur during final examination week unless a petition is approved
by the Student Standing Committee. Withdrawal from college and resulting adjustments in accounts are effective as of the date the completed Withdrawal from
College form is returned to the Registrar's Office.
Dean's List
The Dean's List is compiled after each semester, listing students whose grade point
average for a semester is 3.5 or better, based on a minimum of two full courses, or
equivalent, graded on the traditional grading system, with no incompletes in
courses offered for credit.
Probation and Dismissal
A student will be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term if his or
her achievement is unsatisfactory. A student who has been on probation two or
more consecutive semesters is subject to dismissal at the end of the term. Dismissal
from the College is not automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on
Student Standing. A student who has a poor academic record may be strongly
advised to withdraw before the end of the term. A student who has been on
probation for two terms and withdraws from the College voluntarily must have
special permission to re-enroll.
Student Support Services
Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to assist adults
in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the academic tasks of a
college education, working on their own personal development, and participating
in activities beyond the classroom. Some of these services are:
Academic Planning
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert academic
advising services on an on-going basis to provide for efficient, effective planning.
Students enrolling in Weekend College who have had college experience will have
their previous work evaluated early in the admissions process.
Career Planning Services
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in assessing
their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in combination with sound
academic advising from faculty in a chosen major field, can result in an appropriate and manageable educational and career plan for the individual involved.
Academic Skills Center
This center exists to help students enhance their skills in the areas of writing,
reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic tutors in specialized
course areas are also available through the center.
Counseling/Support Groups
Individual and group activities are available to students who wish to work on a
personal growth interest or concern or who simply want to have the experience of
being in a support group of people who share some similar characteristics
and/or interests.
Veterans of Military Service
Augsburg is approved by the State Approving Agency for Veterans Training.
Veterans should consult with the Office of the Registrar about completion of the
enrollment certificate and the forwarding of other information to the Veterans
Administration. (Please refer to the Augsburg College Catalog for more
detailed information.)
Assessment of Previous Learning (APL) Program
Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in many life
situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit recognition within
the disciplines that compose the academic programs of a liberal arts college. The
APL program (Assessment of Previous Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by
which a student's previous learning, other than that which is transferred from
another accredited institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit
toward the completion of a bachelor's degree.
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition
at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two essential criteria: (1) it is
relevant to coursework in a field of study within the Augsburg liberal arts
curriculum and (2) it can be objectively demonstrated either by comprehensive
examination or committee evaluation.
The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which students may
have their previous learning assessed for credit recognition:
CLEP (College Level Examination Program)
Students who achieve acceptable scores in CLEP exams may receive academic
credit in Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a variety of general and
specific subject areas. For more information, contact the Admissions Oftice
(330-1001).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and do not have
transcript evidence of completed work may request a departmental assessment of
previous learning. This will most often include an examination that covers the
essential components of the course involved. For more information, contact the
Registrar's Ofice (330-1036).
CAP (Credit Assessment Process)
This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee completes a
credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the student. Informal
meetings and consultation are provided for students who wish to prepare a
portfolio of previous learning for credit assessment. Students may apply for CAP
after completing at least four courses of academic work at Augsburg College with
a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5. For more information, contact the Registrar's
Office (330-1036).

Augsburg College
Education
in a Real World
S
tudents commonly speak of graduating from college as a
way of getting into "the real world." In fact, Augsburg College provides students with an education in a real world. The diversity of the faculty, staff, and student body, the structure of
the curriculum, and the academic environment mirror the complexity of life in contemporary society.
The college's location in and involvement with a metropolitan
setting offer continuous access to cultural opportunities, career
experiences, and social realities that enrich students' educations. Augsburg's commitment to the liberal arts recognizes
that the reality in which contemporary persons live and the persons themselves have been shaped by the tradition and history
from which they come. The real world was not made this moming, and it is not simple. Only a broad education can present our
world a s it is and give persons the ability to deal with it. Similarly, Augsburg College's continuing dedication to its heritage
as a college of the church affirms a belief that the world is the
creation of a loving God and that human persons are inescapably spiritual beings.
T h e C o l l e g e Mission Statement
These qualities of an Augsburg education flow from its mission
statement which declares that the college exists to provide high
quality educational opportunities which are based in the liberal
arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian church
and by the context of a great metropolitan center.
Augsburg's location in the heart of the city represents the loom
on which the multi-colored fabric of its identity has been woven.
While students are prepared to take a place in and make a contribution to the world in which they live, they are educated to be
critical of the quality of life in their society and to be reflective of
their own values as they respond to it.
". ..based in the liberal arts
"
The academic program emphasizes the continuing validity of
the liberal arts a s a foundation for developing the life of the
mind. Augsburg College's faculty are dedicated to challenging
their students to achieve the highest academic standards while
supporting them in that endeavor with excellent teaching and
individual attention.
Students are expected to develop their abilities in critical
thinking and communication and to gain sensitivity to and
appreciation for their own and other cultures. Each student is
encouraged to contemplate the eternal philosophical and
spiritual questions of human life and of personal values and
ethics. At Augsburg the great scholars, thinkers, writers, and
artists of the past and present are studied and valued.
Augsburg College considers an understanding of the content
and method of science, a recognition of the place of technology,
and an understanding of ways to maintain a sound body as
important elements of a complete education.
This insistence on the breadth of a traditional liberal arts
education reflects a firm belief that human beings are more
than their ability to perform a job. It reflects further a concerted
attempt to direct students toward a full development of the
many facets and capacities of the educated person.
". ..
..
shaped. by the context o f a great
metropolitan center"
Yet, bounded as it is by an interstate freeway and the center of a
vital city, Augsburg College is no ivory tower escape from the
real world. The college community continually interacts with the
city by attending cultural events and civic activities and by
inviting city residents and visitors to the campus as lecturers,
performers, and mentors. The city becomes a laboratory for
experiential learning through internships, professional program
field experiences, and cooperative education placements.
". ..and shaped by faith and values."
This involvement with the real world is a reflection of
Augsburg's spiritual heritage which values all that God has
created. While its tradition supports intellectual freedom in the
search for truth, the college affirms its belief that all students
should reflect upon their ethical and spiritual values a s part of
becoming educated. Students are encouraged through religion
courses and through opportunities on campus for the practice
and examination of spirituality to consider their relationship to
others, to society, and to the world.
Traditionally Augsburg College has insisted that an aspect of
these relationships is contained in the motto: "Mucation for
Service." In these words the college expresses a belief that,
whatever career they pursue, graduates should consider the
duty of citizens to contribute to the common good through
service to others.
\N
ithin the larger community of the city and the world,
Augsburg College is its own community. It is a community of support and collegiality composed of persons of diverse
talents: of varied ethnic, national, cultural, and religious backgrounds: and of complementary interests and orientations.
Through a competent, committed faculty and a dedicated staff,
Augsburg College builds with its students a real world in which
the whole person can be educated and developed.
Augsburg
College
History
A College o f 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 college
students were enrolled in 1874 and the first college graduation was in
1879.
Early Leaders
Establish a Direction
August Weenaas was Augsburg's first president (1869-1876).
Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway - Sven Oftedal
and Georg Sverdrup. These three men clearly articulated the direction of
Augsburg: to educate Norwegian Lutherans to minister to immigrants:
and to provide such "college" studies that would prepare students for
theological study.
In 1874 they proposed a three part plan: first - train ministerial candidates, second - prepare future theological students and third - educate the farmer, worker, and businessman. The statement stressed that
a good education is also practical.
Augsburg's next two presidents also emphatically rqjected 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 seminary.
The F o c u s C h a n g e s
This attitude began to change alter World War I. In 1911Georg 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 Bemhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly
teacher, to be president (1938-1962).His involvement in ecumenical
and civic circles made Augsburg a more visible part of church 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 mqjors. With cumculum change came a long effort to become accredited.
The college reached full accreditation in 1954, although many alumni
had entered graduate schools and teaching positions long before that
time.
A study in 1962 defined the college's mission now as serving the good
society as a whole first, and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church
second. The Seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther Northwestern Seminary) in St. Paul in 1963.
A College in the City
President Oscar A. Anderson (1963-1980)
continued Augsburg's emphasis on involvement with the city, He wanted to reach out to non-traditional student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all
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, Urness Tower, the College Center, Ice Arena and
Psychology Building.
Since 1980Augsburg has been led by Charles S. Anderson. He has continued Augsburg's commitment to the value of a liberal arts education,
emphasizing diversity in enrollment efforts, spiritual growth and freedom and an academic program that draws on the resources of the city a s
extensions of the campus and classroom.
Serving the
Non-traditional Student
Augsburg's American Indian Program is recognized as successful. The
program has had the highest retention rate of Indian students in Minnesota -some 85 percent. The Black Student Affairs Program, initiated in
1969,has had a growing number of students and supports a Black Student Union and a newspaper distributed by the office.
The campus is accessible to the physically handicapped with a skywaytunnel-elevator system connecting nine major buildings. In only its second year, Augsburg's program for the learning disabled had 30 students
enrolled. The program received a state award for excellence.
Weekend College, started in 1982with 69students, had an enrollment of
nearly 500 in fall 1985.Through Weekend College, adult students can
work fulltime and pursue a bachelor's degree that has a practical focus
on a liberal arts base.
These programs bring working adults to the campus. They're complemented by the new Cooperative Education Program (begun in 1984)
that sends Augsburg students into the workplace. The Co-op Education
Program helps students get career experience in addition to their classroom studies.
Augsburg Today
Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the
founders who believed:
Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community
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 11,000Augsburg 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.

Financial
Aid
Financing higher education could be the most significant investment a
person or family makes in a lifetime. So, proper planning and wise
choices are important, not only in choosing a college, but also in the
methods used to pay for it. Augsburg College, through its Office of Student Financial Services, will help students and their families with both
monetary and advisory assistance to protect access to a quality education in spite of increasing costs.
Financial assistance awarded through Augsburg is a 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 academic year 1984-85 approximately 85% of all students at Augsburg received scholarships,
grants, loans and part-time employment totalling over $6,200,000 from
all aid sources.
The primary responsibility for financing a college education rests upon
the student and family. Financial aid is intended to supplement student
and family resources.
The Family Financial Statement (FFS) of the Amerlcan ~ o l l & eTesting
Program (ACT) or the Financial Aid Porn (FAF) of the College Scholarship Service (CSS) helps determine the amount or 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 a s current income, assets,
number of dependents, other educational expenses, debts, retirement
needs, and special considerations.

based on financial eligibility, satisfactory academic progress, and fund
availability.
K i n d s of Aid
A student applying for aid from Augsburg applies for assistance in gen-
eral 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 could be 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 meeting their
requirements. In addition to these sources, some students are eligible
for aid through Vocational Rehabilitation, Education Assistance for
Veterans, Educational Assistance For Veterans' Children, and others.

xperiences in the classroom are an important part of collene life, but learning and development also occur in formal and informal activities of the college and the metropolitan
area. Whether students are residents or commuters, the climate
for learning and living at Augsburg will add dimension to their
education.
Campus
Ministry
a college of the church, we are concerned about spiritual, a s well as
As
academicand social growth. Our concern for spiritual growth is evident
in the opportunities we encourage and provide for students to explore
their own faith.
Since 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, fellowship
groups, outreach teams, planning committees, retreats, Peace and
Justice forums, Hunger conferences, concerts, plays and movies are
examples of the wide variety of activities on campus.
This ministry finds its most visible expression in chapel worship where
students, faculty and staff gather each Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
to give thanks and hear the Gospel proclaimed by a number of speakers and musicians. Each Wednesday night students gather for Holy
Communion.
We seek to develop a free and open environment where people are encouraged to use and discover the gifts that God has given them. A s a
college of the church, we encourage students to form their own values
which will be the basis for the kind and quality of life that reaches beyond one's years at Augsburg.
The College Pastor has an ofice in the College Center to be readily
available for counseling, consultation, support or information.
Student
Government
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 College Center.
Social, Cultural,
Recreational
Throughout the year, a variety of social and cultural activities takes
place on campus as well a s in the Twin Cities. These activities include
dances, special dinners, name entertainment, and visiting personalities in various fields.
The College Center is the focus of lesiure-time activity on campus. Offices for the College newspaper, the Augsburg Echo, and the yearbook,
the Augsburglan, are on the lower level. Many of the clubs that unite
classroom or non-classroom related interests meet in the Center.
KCMR, a student-operated non-profitradio station serving the needs of
Augsburg and the surrounding Cedar-Riverside community, is located
in the Mortensen 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

recognizes t h a t t h e environment for learning is a critical factor in
achieving growth. Knowledge grows from more than intellectual endeavors. Expanding relationships, exploring values, identifying life
styles, developing autonomy and interdependence, finding purpose
and commitment - all combine with intellectual content and skills to
produce the educational impact of the college on its students.
The Division of Student Affairs supports this task. During the summer
before your freshman year, or a t the time of transfer, you will receive a
copy ofAugsburg Guide. This book will help you assess the possibilities
in your education, choices to make, directions to consider and different
destinations for which to plan. Augsburg Guide was designed t o act a s a
sort of road map.
Center for Student Development
The Center for Student Development provides a variety of services t o
help make yourjourney rich and meaningful. Some of the opportunities are listed below.
Summer Orientation. Students can plan their first academic year and pre-register
for classes. Students and their parents get acquainted with classmates, faculty, and
staff as well as with the campus. They stay in the dormitory, attend events in the met:
ropolitan area and seek answers to many questions about college life.
Career Planning and Placement. Students may be uncertain about where they want
to be whenthey finish their undergraduate experience, whether their life style will be
a balanced one, or how work will provide opportunity for service and fulfillment.
Augsburg has a four-year career development plan to help with a personal assessment, explore possibilities, test realities, and prepare for entry into the next phase of
life. All new students will have a chance to review their interests with a counselor.
Job Service. Augsburg College maintains a referral service in the Placement Office,
Center for Student Development, to help students find part-time, temporaty, and
summer employment off campus. Job Service initiates contact with employers in the
area and the State Employment Service and acts as a clearinghouse to help match
students and jobs.
Human Development Seminars. A series of informal "mini-courses" is offered each
year to help you grow in understanding of yourself and your relationship to others.
Such topics as PEER (Positive Educational Experiences in Relationships),Choosing a
Major, Issues in Men's and Women's Identity, Assertiveness, Job Seeking, and Sexuality are available. Information on current offerings and opportunity to register are
provided several times during the year.
Academic Enrichment. Students may want to improve their skills in such areas as
reading, studying, note-taking, and testing by attending one or more of the workshops offered. Students also will have an opportunity to meet with a counselor to diagnose needs. If a particular course proves difficult, students can arrange for tutoring through the Center.
Counseling and Guidance. Sometimes students find it difficult to cope with relationships or situations which they encounter during their college experience. Counselors
are available to help students who are experiencing personal/interpersonal difficulties by providing individual and group counseling and a variety of personal growth
groups.

areas:
American Indian Support Program. This program provides direct services and assistance in such areas as: recruitment and retention, admissions and financial aids
procedures, orientation and registration, coursework selection and career counseling, tutoring, personal and crisis counseling, referrals and followup. The program
provides advocacy in areas of health, child care, housing, and employment opportunities, with input into the implementation of American Indian courses and liaison

Black Student Program. Augsburg offers a Black student program which provides
career and personal counseling, administrative support, and assistance with the admissions process. Black History Month and the Black Student Union are student affairs programs emphasizing Black heritage and participation.
The other facet of Augsburg's Intercultural Center focuses on students who are from
or are interested in studying in other countries, and in planning activities and events
to increase intercultural awareness of students, faculty and staff.
Foreign Study. If students are interested in study abroad, they can consult the faculty
member who serves as Director of lnternational Programs to check on the many opportunities available.
International Students. Augsburg enjoys the academic and cultural participation of
its students from countries outside the U.S. The Office of the International Student

The Chinwag, located on the ground floor of the Center, features short orders and is
open through the noon hour and in the evenings.
Augsburg provides a variety of board plan options for those living in College houses or
nearby apartments.
Living on Campus
Because Augsburg recognizes that a student's ability to respond to the
learning environment depends, in part, upon his or her living conditions, a variety of housing alternatives is provided. The residence hall
program promotes student growth by asking students to actively participate in group decision-making. Each residence unit has one or more
Resident Staff who facilitate the process of group living and discuss personal concerns with individual students.
Augsburg requires all freshmen and sophomores not living at home to
live in college-operated housing. Married student housing is available
in annex housing and South Hall. Students rent a room at the beginning of the fall term for the entire school year. New students receive
room assignments the summer before they arrive a t Augsburg. Upperclass students make housing arrangements in the spring. All resident
students must sign housing contracts.
Freshmen and transfer students are urged to make the tuition deposit
by June 1in order to secure housing. Students who deposit after June
1will be provided housing only if space is available.
All students living on campus must pay an advance payment when they
sign the housing contract. The fee is credited to the students' accounts
when they move into the residence.
All new freshmen and some upperclass students live in U r n e s s Tower.
This eleven story high-rise houses 324. Each floor is considered a
house unit providing 36 students (two to a room), with their own
lounge, study and utility areas.
Mortensen Tower, the newest residence hall, is an alternative to traditional residence hall living. It contains 104 one- and two-bedroom
apartments to accommodate 312 upperclass students.
South Hall contains 12 apartments housing 34 upperclass students.
W e s t H a l l contains 12 one-bedroom apartments housing 24 upper-
class students.
A n n e x H o u s i n g provides an alternative opportunity for group living.
Groups of upperclass men or women share living space, house responsibilities, and cooking. Houses are located in the campus area. One
way to maximize the living and learning of your housing situation is to
bid for a Special Interest House. Groups of students have created exciting projects by writing and implementing educational impact proposals
on such t o ~ i c sa s Environmental Concerns, Men's and Women's
Awareness, 'international Living, Honors Program, and Scandinavian
Studies.
Mortensen Tower is carpeted, air conditioned, and contains kitchen
units. It is otherwise unfurnished. In other residence halls or houses,
rooms are furnished except for bed linens, towels, blankets, bedspreads, and lamps. Laundry facilities are available in each residence.

A
ugsburg College constructs its cumculum upon the
premise that students must be educated as full human
persons: intellectually, spiritually, and physically. To act effectively, human beings must have a broad grasp of the world from
which they have come as well a s the world in which they live. By
providing courses in the humanities, natural sciences, and social sciences, the general education cumculum introduces students to the breadth and complexity of knowledge and culture.
Required courses in religion are designed to acquaint students
with the Christian tradition and encourage them to reflect upon
the importance and meaning of spirituality in their lives. Recreation courses offer students the opportunity to develop skills for
participation in exercise and sporting activities.
Students choose from over forty mqjor 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 cumcular 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.
