Show more'I‘hvrv is one mursv at Augsburg in which the M‘llulm‘s are supposed to say in honesty, “It's all Greek to me." llr. (iolucvi tests a few Greek students to see whether or not the Aorist of irregular writs is sigmnliv. One of the more favorite spots on campus seems to be the library where students go to read books that are to be “chewed” or “digested.” Some just go to study. Of course the faculty goes there to work on advanced degrees and others to get all they can out of the place before they lift their eyes to the newest building on campus. “AUCSBURG: WORLD PANORAMA” Although Augsburg’s homecoming festivities were coordinated under this theme, a glance at its language department reveals that the phrase is not limited to homecoming week. The courses in Scan- dinavian, Germanic, and Romantic languages par- ticularly attempt to bring students representative pictures of life in these countries. All of the language clubs united into a Cos- mopolitan Club during the past year. At each meet- ing of the club, a different class contributed to the program. The progressive combination of brick, mortar, glass, etc., on the northwest corner of the quadran- gle during the past year focused attention not only on the physical library to be housed there, but also on the proposed curriculum in library science. From 1955 and forward, Auggies may add to their lists of specialized study a minor in library science which will represent study of its most effective use for themselves and others. Show less

Practice teacher. Dave Skaar, teaches his prospective Mozarts and Saterens some fundamentals. The for- mality is probably caused by a “visit” from Mr. Bertness. “All students admitted to the teacher education curriculum must secure two credits of Group Ac- tivity.” This innocent statement from the Augsburg Col- lege catalog annually proves to be supercharged for Auggies enrolled in the Department of Psy- chology and Education. While supervising a Boy Scout group engaged in a heated scrimmage, or assisting 3 4H member rescue cookies from an overheated oven, the student instructor finds that classroom knowledge of educational and psycholo- gical techniques and application of these tech- niques are two different things. Supervision of group activity is but one requirement of this de- partment, however. Insight into classroom teach- ing is given through a month long student teach- ing program. Psychology courses are not limited to education students, however. The department’s objective, to aid students in understanding, pre- dicting and controlling their behavior and that of society, makes these courses a valuable supple- ment to any field of study.

And this task it must approach humbly, grateful for the foundation laid in the lives of its students by home and church, and recognizing that its eflorts, to be successful, must be directed and moved by the spirit of Christ. The members of the college community may well pray with Tennyson, “Let knowledge grow from more to more, But more of reverence in us dwell; That mind and soul, according well, May make one music as before, But vaster.” Martin Quanbeck Summer ground-breaking exercises for the new George Sverdrup Library were participated in by representatives of the Board of Trustees, the administration, and the Alumni Association.

Show moreFOREWORD Nineteen hundred fifty-four was a momentous year at Augsburg. New horizons came into view as old ones were realized. As the library rose brick by brick, it was imposineg symbolic of the continued construction and molding of the life of each member of Augsburg upon. the solid foundation given him by Christ. So our hopes and expectations were increased for greater things in the future. This was a year of progress at Augsburg. The school became fully accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges. This year saw the building of the library and the preparation for the construction of a new women’s dormitory. Augsburg took on a new universal look with students from China, the Philippines, Japan,» Alaska. Canada, Korea, Norway, and Germany. Most ‘ important, there was renewed hope in the never chang- ing gospel of Christ. » V Your 1955 Augsburgian is designed to recapture for you through pictures some of these memories. _,-_ Show less
