It will emphasize the ideas of Joseph Campbell but will also consider other interpretations of heroic journeys. Since western civilization usually assumes that the hero is a man, usually white and belonging to a warrior class, analysis of the heroic warrior myth, both as it is depicted in ancient and medieval epics and myths and as it appears in contemporary American popular narratives, will be explored. But the heroic journey is a human journey, and thus the course will also emphasize the heroic journeys of women and men who may be neither white nor warriors. 6:OO-9:30pnl M,w Old Main 23 HIS 440-5 Topics in World History: The Meaning of 20th Century European Diplomatic History for 21st Century Europe Anderson This course provides historical perspective on some of the security, political and economic problems facing Europe at the end of the millennium while attempting to assess and understand the future of NATO, the possibilities of a United States of Europe, the Yugoslav problem and the relationship of Russia and the United States to Europe.

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

A \ t Augsburg College, we believe that the college experience should be a time of exploration, of discovery, of new experiences and new possibilities. We also believe that a liberal arts education is your best preparation for living in the fastpaced, changing and complex world of today and tomorrow. Upon graduation, you will be able to demonstrate not only the mastery of a major field of study, but also the ability to think critically, solve problems and communicate effectively. Select from 50 majors Augsburg offers more than 50 majors or you can create your own major either on campus or through the Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities (ACTC). (See page 49 for a complete list of majors and minors.) This five-college consortium allows students to take courses on other campuses without charge. The ACTC includes Augsburg College, Harnline University, Macalester College, the University of St. Thomas, and the College of St. Catherine. We emphasize values, perspectives, experience and skills The heart of an Augsburg education is the Augsburg Curriculum - the College's general education program that structures your liberal arts studies through challenging and thought-provoking courses that require students to consider important issues and examine values questions. These liberal arts perspectives include western heritage, intercultural awareness, human identity, the social world, Christian faith, the city, aesthetics and the natural world. At the same time, courses across all disciplines stress the skills that will serve you for a lifetime - writing, speaking, critical t h d u n g and quantitative reasoning, to name a few. Thanks to Augsburg's prime location in the heart of a thriving metropolitan area, many courses are able to offer rich and varied learning opportunities in real-life situations through academic internships, experiential education, volunteer community service and cultural enrichment. In a sense, the resources of the Twin Cities are an extended campus for Augsburg students. Students who graduate from Augsburg are well prepared to make a difference in the world. They stand as testaments to the College motto, "Education for Service," and to the Mission of the College: To nurture leaders in service to the world by providing high quality educational opportunities which are based in the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community. A College of the Church Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September, 1869, in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The first seminarians were enrolled in 1874, and the first graduation was in 1879. l o About Augsburg - Early Leaders Establish a Direction The Focus Changed August Weenaas was Augsburg's first president (1869-1876). This attitude began to change after World War I. In 1911, Georg Sverdrup, Jr., became president. He worked to develop college departments with an appeal to a broader range of students than just those intending to be ministers. Augsburg admitted women in 1922 under the leadership of Gerda Mortensen, Dean of Women. She spent the next 52 years at the College as a teacher and administrator. Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway - Sven Oftedal and Georg Sverdrup. These three men clearly articulated the direction of Augsburg: to educate Norwegian Lutherans to minister to immigrants and to provide such "college" studies that would prepare students for theological study. In 1874 they proposed a three part plan: first, train ministerial candidates; second, prepare future theological students; and third, educate the farmer, worker and businessman. The statement stressed that a good education is also practical. Augsburg's next two presidents also emphatically rejected ivory tower concepts of education. This commitment to church and community has been Augsburg's theme for over one hundred years. Education for Service Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist" college, Georg Sverdrup, Augsburg's second president (1876-1907),required students to get pre-ministerial experience in city congregations. Student involvement in the community gave early expression to the concept of Augsburg's motto, "Education for Service." In the 1890s, Augsburg leaders formed the Friends of Augsburg, later called the Lutheran Free Church. The church was a group of independent congregations committed to congregational autonomy and personal Christianity. This change made Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the small Lutheran body. But the college division was still important primarily as an attachment to the s ~ m i n a ~ . The College's mission assumed a double character - ministerial preparation together with a more general education for life in society. In 1937, Augsburg elected Bernhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly teacher, to be president (19381962).His involvement in ecumenical and civic circles made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city life. After World War 11, Augsburg leaders made vigorous efforts to expand and improve academic offerings. Now the College was a larger part of the institution than the seminary, and received the most attention. Accreditation for the College Augsburg added departments essential to a liberal arts college, offering a modem college program based on general education requirements and elective majors. With curriculum change came a long effort to become accredited. The College reached accreditation in 1954, although many alumni had entered graduate schools and teaching positions long before that time. A study in 1962 defined the College's mission as serving the good of society first and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church second. The Seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther Serninarv) in St. Paul in 1963. About Auasbura l1 A College in the City President Oscar A. Anderson (19631980) continued Augsburg's emphasis on involvement with the city. He wanted to reach out to nontraditional student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all people. During his years of leadership the College became a vital and integral part of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg added the Music Hall, Mortensen Tower, Umess Tower, the Christensen Center, Ice Arena and Murphy Place. Dr. Charles S. Anderson has led the College since 1980. He guides Augsburg's commitment to liberal arts education, spiritual growth and freedom, diversity in enrollment and programs and a curriculum that draws on the resources of the city as extensions of campus and classroom. Augsburg continues to grow under his leadership. Some of the accomplishments during his tenure include instituting three graduate degree programs, hosting national and international figures at College-sponsored forums and events, increased accessibility, and the addition of the Foss Center for Worship, Drama and Communication and the Oscar Anderson Residence Hall. Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the founders who believed: An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community and church; Education should have a solid liberal arts core with a practical dimension in order to send out productive, creative and successful citizens; The city -with all its excitement, challenges and diversity - is an unequaled learning laboratory for Augsburg students. Augsburg is a quality liberal arts institution set in the heart of a great metropolitan center. There are now more than 13,000 Augsburg alumni. In a world that has changed much since those first days of the College, Augsburg still sends out graduates who make a difference where they live and work. In addition to a traditional undergraduate liberal arts and sciences "day" program, Augsburg offers a Weekend College program for nontraditional students and master's degree programs in social work, leadership and education-leadership. CAMPUS LOCATION Augsburg's campus is located in the heart of the Twin Cities, surrounding Murphy Square, the first of 155 parks in Minneapolis, the "City of Lakes."

Whether students are residents or commuters, the climate for learning and living at Augsburg will add dimension to their education. As a college of the church, we are concerned about spiritual as well as academic and social growth. Our concern for spiritual growth is evident in the opportunities we encourage and provide for students to explore their own faith. Because our campus is comprised of individuals from many different religious and cultural backgrounds, our worship life is characterized by a similar diversity and richness of tradition. Bible studies, growth groups, outreach teams and community outreach opportunities, retreats, peace and justice forums, concerts and gatherings are examples of the wide variety of activities on campus. This ministry finds its most visible expression in chapel worship where students, faculty and staff gather each day to give thanks and hear the Gospel proclaimed by a number of speakers and musicians. Each Wednesday night students gather for Holy Communion. On Sundays, Trinity Lutheran worship services are held on campus, with many other churches within walking distance. We seek to develop a free and open environment where people are encouraged to use and discover the gfts and sense of call and vocation that God has given them. As a college of the church, we encourage students to form values guided by our Christian heritage, which will be the basis for the kind and quality of life that reaches beyond their years at Augsburg. The College Pastor and Campus Ministry staff have offices in the Foss, Lobeck, Miles Center for Worship, Drama and Communication and are available for spiritual guidance, counseling, support or information. Through student government students secure a closer relationship with and better understanding of the administration and faculty, and provide input into the decision-making process at Augsburg.

Student government is organized into the executive branch, the legislative branch and the judicial branch. Elections are held in the spring for the next year. Freshmen elect their representatives in the fall of their first year. Many kinds of involvement are possible -program planning, writing, editing or service opportunities. If you want to get involved, contact the president or vice president of the Student Body in their offices in the lower level of the Christensen Center. The Student Activities program creates opportunities for students to enhance their leadership skills through active involvement in developing events, activities and organizations which serve the student community. Hundreds of major programming Student Life efforts and targeted activities for specific student interests are generated through these efforts and make Augsburg a dynamic and enjoyable interactive environment.

The College follows a 4- 1-4 calendar, with Fall and Spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a four-week January Interim. Interim is intended to be a time for both students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and learning and to investigate questions and topics in places and ways not possible during the regular term. Since one Interim course equals a full-time load, students should plan to spend the sanie amount of time in class and preparing for class as they would for a four-course load during Fall or Spring semesters. Students can register for only one course credit during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who chooses not to enroll in an Interim course. It is expected that students will attend every class period; however, each instructor will establish the precise attendance policy for hislher course. Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale. Students generally have the option to register on a PassINo Credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on the PIN system; this is indicated in the course description. Some courses are offered for either upper or lower division credit. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and the student must select which is most appropriate for their needs. Students registering for upper division credit should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading standard. Some courses, especially courses with travel requirements, have additional fees associated with them. These fees, although intended to be accurate, may change and students should check with the instructor to verify the final costs. To graduate, a student under the 34 course Liberal Arts Perspective requirements is required to complete two Interim courses, but three Interim courses may count toward graduation. For any student entering after January 1993, a maximum of two Interim course credits may be counted toward the 33 total course credits required for graduation. The number of required Interim courses is adjusted for transfer students. Transfer students should refer to their transfer credit evaluation form, or consult the Registrar. Additional Interim credits which can count toward the 33 course credits required may be taken by students who repeat a course for credit in which a grade below 2.0 was earned, or who need to make up for a regular term in which they failed or withdrew from a course. Additional Interim courses not counted toward the 33 course credits required may be used to fulfill other degree requirements. That is, no more than two Interim course credits may be taken for credit toward 33, but additional Interim courses may be used to fulfill major, minor or general education requirements. Day School students (3.0 credits or more for Fall) can take a total of 1.0 course credits. They may take two half credit classes. They may also take a lifetime sport (zero credit). The lifetime sport is at no additional charge if they are full-time (Fall term). If less than full-time they will be charged. Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim as a cross registration, but will be charged Day School tuition ($1,420.00) per course credit. If they do so they may take only 1.0 additional course credits in Weekend College for Winter Trimester. It is the policy ofAugsburg College not to discriminate on the basis of race, creed, notional or etlirtic origin, age, niarital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX ofthe 1972 Educotiotial Atnetidmenis or Section 504 ofthe Rehnbiliiation Act 011973, as otiietided, it1 its adn~issionspolicies, educotiotlol programs, activities and eniploynietrt practices. International Interim - Students are invited to be part of one of the 24 international Interim courses offered by the Upper Midwest Association for Intercultural Education (UMAIE). These course opportunities are listed near the end of this catalog. Internships deadline - Friday, December 13. January Interim internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an internship must meet departmental requirements and present a signed internship learning agreement plan to the Internship Office (Murphy Place, Rm. 8) no later than the last day of Fall classes (Friday, December 13).

These changes carry major implications for global trade and international business and certainly for U.S. bilateral interest in this region. This course will provide an understanding of these changes and will identify the opportunities and most effective ways of doing business and investing in Russia, Central and Eastern Europe. Prerequisite: ECO 112 Maximum Enrollment: 15 Time: I - M, W Th Room: Memorial 323 CHM 100-1 Instructor: Arlin Gyberg This course is developed in the perspective of a person living in a modern, high technology society such as the United States. It assumes that before one can evaluate a moral or societal issue of a scientific nature one at the least must be able to understand the science involved. Anything less is an impression rather than an informed decision. As we develop scientific concepts we will at the same time relate them to an abundance of current issues. We live in a world of pesticides, fertilizers, plastics, birth control, food abundance and food shortage, food additives and processing and synthesis, organically and non-organically grown food, chemical dependency, licit and illicit drugs, the energy crisis and the debates about sources of energy, the greenhouse effect and nuclear waste storage, pollution, genetic engineering and much more. Many of these problems are chemical in nature. Thus, in learning about chemistry, via lecture and in-class discussion, we can be helped to understand ourselves, our society, our world and even some of the universe. The grade for the course is based on a percentage of the total score for total points on the daily quizzes. Prerequisite: Math Placement 2 Liberal Arts Perspective: Natural World 2 Maximum Enroilment: 30 Time: I Room: Science 315 FORTRAN CSC 270-1 Instructor: Noel Petit A study of the FORTRAN programming language for students with previous knowledge of computer programming.

Students are expected to know how to do computer programming in some programming language (such as Pascal) before entering this course. This course will involve lectures and several programming assignments in FORTRAN. Evaluation will be based on the successful completion of assignments and examinations. Prerequisite: One course which includes programming Maximum Enrollmenl: 25 Time: I1 Room: Foss 42 1 CSC 495-1 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.

Prerequisite: PPST Maximum Enrollment: 25 Time: I Room: Library 1 EDS 495-1 Instructor: Mary Ann Bayless Why are some things easy for a person to learn while others seem harder? Why does the same task seem easier at one moment and more difficult just a few hours later? Why do some children struggle with seemingly simple assignments but then suddenly master them? Why do more people suffer with learning disabilities and weak short-term memory than ever before? Each of us wants to be an efficient and happy learner; but most often, no one has shown us how to be our own lifelong learning coaches. In the last decade, work in neuro-physiology has given us a whole new set of insights about how the various parts of the brain actually work to produce learning and high-level functioning. Educational kinesiologists have taken these insights and produced simple but effective ways to increase the learning comfort of each individual. This course will provide both the theory for each participant to understand herlhis own unique learning needs and the practice for becoming an efficient and joyful learner. We will study learning development, brainlmind function, and the nature of learning blocks. We will discuss the misuse of brain dominance theory and learn routines for overcoming learning blocks and integrating hemisphere functions. There will be two tests and two demonstrations required of each student, and upper-division students will have to do two reviews of relevant research. The course uses two paperback texts. Very useful for prospective teachers and parents.

As a garden, the city tames and shapes nature to provide an environment congenial to humanity. As a wilderness, the city suggests the lack of moral restraint and self-control. This course explores these themes in (mostly modern American) essays, short stories, plays, poetry and films. Taking its cue from Alfred Kazin's A Walker in the City,the course will include a service project and field trips in which we will explore some of the "gardens" and "wildernesses" of the Twin Cities. Course grades will be based on a journal, two short papers, class attendance and contributions to discussion. Preference given to freshmen.

Welles' stylistic impact on other filmmakers will be examined, as well as the aesthetic choices Welles made in transferring other literary forms (such as novels and plays) to cinema. The course will also explore Welles' re-reading of developing Hollywood studio techniques and formulas (such as his deepening of the archetypal psychology presented in classic film noir), and the changing critical reception of his work. Students will be responsible for viewing all the films; many of the screenings will take place outside of class time. A journal, two short papers and a final video project are required.

Put more broadly, the years between the mid-1840s and the late 1870s saw questions about such fundamental principles as slavery and freedom resolved; others, however, continue to trouble us to this day. This course, then, offers a survey of the causes, issues and consequences of the nation's bloodiest conflict. Topics to be considered include slavery and anti-slavery, Manifest Destiny, the growing sectional conflict, the origins of the Republican Party, the clash of arms, the changing role of women, popular religion, the transition from slave to free labor in the South, and post-slavery race relations. The course will include lectures, discussions, a variety of primary and secondary readings, and films.

This course will begin with a short overview of optics needed for understanding imaging, beam control and dispersion, including the nature of light, reflection, refraction and interference. The stage is then set for treating super-radiant devices and lasers and analyzing the effects of cavity design on output characteristics. The course will conclude by applying these concepts to the study of atoms and molecules via the emission, absorption and scattering of light. Considerable emphasis will be placed on laboratory experiences and scientific communication; only one-third of the class time will be used for formal lectures and discussion. Grades will be determined on the basis of weekly evaluation of laboratory notebooks, oral and poster presentations, and two examinations.

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

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

Catalog Supplement 1996 for MAL Program A Hon-thesis Option for Completion of the MAL Program (Plan B) In March 1996 the MAL program approved a Plan B alternative to provide a third choice for students completing their MAL degree. Plan B involves both a different number and configuration of course requirements than Plan A. (See below for details) The Thesis and the Leadership Application Project are described in the 1995-1997 catalog. The thesis and leadership application project are similar in approach and methodology. They differ principally in the degree of application. thesis, leadership application project, and g1an B are options available to all HAL atudents. ~h• The PLAN B Option: The Plan B option requires 11 courses. Plan B students must take: ML 580 Contemporary Theories of Leadership ML 510 Visions of Leadership ML 514 Research Methods. Plan B students will write two major papers: l'irst Paper: In ML 580 Contemporary Theories of Leadership students write one major paper(approximately 30 pages). This paper will fulfill one of required Plan B papers if a grade of 3.5 or batter is achieved. Students are required to give an oral presentation based on their major paper at the end of the semester. (If the grade achieved on this paper is less than 3.5 and the student has elected the Plan B option, the student will re- work the paper.*) *A readers' panel, selected by the MAL Advisory committee, will review the revised paper. Second Paper: one of two ways: The second major paper may be handled in 1) An Independent study ML 59·9 (1. 0 credit) taken with an Advisor. There will be a major paper(approximately 30-35 pages) required. The student must earn at least a grade of 3.5. . 2) Thesis Seminar ML 593-594 sequence (.5 er each-1.0 er total) and complete a major paper(approximately 30-35 pages). The second Plan B Paper will be reviewed by the readers' panel.

While different in structure and purpose, most organizations seek leaders with the following qualities: a vision which is ethically and morally responsible, extending beyond immediate concerns; an understanding of how change occurs and affects the immediate environment; a sensitivity to the complex problems organizations face, and an ability to achieve solutions consistent with an organization's mission; the ability to motivate and inspire individuals and groups to work toward a common goal; and the ability to effectively represent the organization both internally and externally. The MAL program provides a means by which individuals may discover and refine these and other abilities fundamental to effective leadership. Accommodating the Full-Time Work Schedule Designed to meet the needs and preferences of working adults, the MAL program is based on the assumption that the students who enroll are career oriented, • • • ~ I . .. .,.• ·' • : ~ self-disciplined, and wellmotivated individuals, seeking a balance of classroom experience, group interaction, and individual study. Most courses are organized as seminars with opportunity for discussion and dialogue, and classes meet on alternate Saturdays for threeand-one-half hours and alternate Thursday evenings for one-andone-half hours. Community of Learners Essential to the goals of the MAL program is participation in a community of learners gathered together on the Augsburg campus. This community is enriched by the students with a variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate community interaction, students are encouraged to make use of the Augsburg library, computer labs, and Christensen Center. Students share meals and coffee breaks; participate in optional lunch time seminars; and attend music and dramatic presentations and athletic events. Individual Professional Development A major component of the MAL program is the professional. assessment. Given in the first year of study, the assessment can help students to identify leadership skills and preferred work and learning styles. Nationally recognized test instruments are used and based . .. on the results, students are encouraged to create personalized goals and plans to strengthen areas which may require further development. MAL students are encouraged to enroll in ML 500, Leadership Practicum. Students may enroll in this professional development series for six terms and upon completion of six Practica, receive a half-course credit to be used as an elective. Scheduled each term, Practica are designed to meet student needs in areas such as interpersonal communication, approaches to career change, coping with workplace issues, and other areas related to leadership and professional development. In consultation with the Director, the student may also apply to receive credit for attending seminars related to his or her employment as part of the Practicum course. ~,.. . . . .. ·" •• . ., ' ,, · .~I ,· . ......,., ... ,. ~ ,. ,. ; ' '·.· : . . .. • . ... _, .· .... ... ·.. ., .

To accomplish this, individuals aspiring to positions of leadership must possess three key attributes: a sense of vision, the ability to persuade, and the ability to direct action. Underlying these attributes is a broad range of abilities and awareness, outlined in the Leadership Development Model, that serve as specific outcomes for the MAL Program. Augsburg's model of leadership development is designed to assess, promote, enhance, and refine these capabilities within the individual.

Each course includes two or more liberal arts disciplines, encourages pursuit of the designated outcomes, and uses a variety of learning techniques appropriate to adult learners. Instructional techniques include case studies, debate, written and oral presentations, and group activity. These techniques, which have had demonstrated success in advanced courses, develop targeted leadership abilities and understanding. Students are encouraged to see abilities and understandings as crossdisciplinary and to see content areas as integrated. The very form of the program reflects the view that the world in which we operate is complex and that dealing with it successfully requires well- Core Courses (3.5 course credits) ....

Students have the option to do either a Thesis or Leadership Application Project for completion of the degree. The Thesis or Application Project should be seen as the culmination of the MAL program, offering participants the opportunity to investigate either some aspect of leadership in depth or explore the application of what has been studied. The distinction between these two options lies in their orientation. The Thesis will have a more theoretical orientation, while the Leadership Application Project will be based on a more practical application orientation.

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

The College follows a 4-1-4 calendar, with Fall and Spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a four-week January Interim. Interim is particularly intended to be a time for both students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and learning and to investigate questions and topics in places and ways not possible during the regular term. Since one Interim course equals a full-time load, students should plan to spend the same amount of time in class and preparing for class as they would for a fourcourse load during Fall or Spring semesters. Students can register for only one course credit during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who chooses not to enroll in an Interim course. Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale. Students generally have the option to register on a Pass/No Credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on the P/N system; this is indicated in the course description. Some courses are offered for either upper or lower division credit. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and students must select which is most appropriate for their needs. Students registering for upper division credit should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading standard. Some courses, especially courses with travel requirements, have additional fees associated with them. These fees, although intended to be accurate, may change and students should check with the instructor to verify the final costs. To graduate, a student under the 34-course Liberal Arts Perspective requirements is required to complete two Interim courses, but three Interim courses may count toward graduation. INTRODUCTION For any student entering after January 1993, a maximum of two Interim course credits may be counted toward the 33 total course credits required for graduation. The number of required Interim courses is adjusted for transfer students. Transfer students should refer to their transfer credit evaluation form, or consult the Registrar. Additional Interim credits which can count toward the 33 course credits required may be taken by students who repeat a course for credit in which a grade below 2.0 was earned, or who need to make up for a regular term in which they failed or withdrew from a course. Additional Interim courses not counted toward the 33 course credits required may be used to fulfill other degree requirements. That is, no more than two Interim course credits may be taken for credit toward 33, but additional Interim courses may be used to fulfill major, minor or general education requirements. Day School students (3.0 credits or more for Fall) can take a total of 1.0 course credits. They may take two half credit classes. They may also take a lifetime sport (zero credit). The lifetime sport is at no additional charge if they are full-time (Fall term). If less than fulltime they will be charged. Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim as a cross registration, but will be charged Day School tuition ($1,350.00) per course credit. If they do so they may take only 1.0 additional course credits in Weekend College for Winter Trimester. It is the policy ofAugsburg College not to discriminate on the basis of race, creed, national or ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX ofthe 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of1973, as amended, in its admissions policies, educational programs, activities and employment practices. International Interim - Students are invited to be part of one of the 24 international Interim courses offered by the Upper Midwest Association for International Education (UMAIE). These course opportunities are listed near the end of this catalog. Internships deadline - Friday, December 8. January Interim internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an internship must meet departmental requirements and present a signed internship learning agreement plan to the Internship Office (Murphy Place, Rm. 8) no later than the last day of Fall classes (Friday, December 8). The Learning Agreement forms are available in the same office. Internships during Interim must involve full-time work placements for approximately four weeks. Assistance for planning your internship is available in the Internship and Cooperative Education Office. Independent or Directed Study - Students may elect a program of independent study (upper division 499) or directed study (lower division 299) for Interim. Faculty members are strongly discouraged from accepting responsibility for more than one independent study per Interim. Students choosing to pursue independent or directed study must: 1.Meet departmental requirements. 2. Present to the Registrar a copy of the proposed study plan approved by the supervising faculty member and the directed/independent study registration form. These forms must be submitted by December 1. Appropriate study proposal and registration forms can be obtained in the Interim Office. 1 NTRODUCTION Interims at Other Schools -Augsburg students may enroll at any other 4-1-4 institution which offers a reciprocal Interim arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim programs can be consulted in the Interim Office. The Interim Secretary will help students in applying for registration at other schools. Registration for Interims at the other ACTC colleges will be at Augsburg during the regular registration period. Most courses taught during the Interim at other 4-1-4 schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but may not necessarily be accepted as meeting Augsburg's general education requirements. This qualification particularly affects religion courses . Augsburg College welcomes students from other 4-1-4 schools for the January Interim without tuition charges provided the student's home institution agrees not to charge tuition to Augsburg students for the January term. The waiver of tuition does not include special fees, housing or board costs. Other students will be charged $1,350 for the Interim course. Students interested in registering for an Augsburg Interim should write to the Interim Director for application forms or use the forms provided by the interim office at their own school. There is an application processing fee of $10. Students are welcome to stay on campus but are not required to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be made to the Interim Office. It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor visiting students may register for 199,299, or 499 courses.

Prerequisites: BUS 242 & ECO 113, or permission of instructor Graduation Skill: Critical Thinking Maximum Enrollment: 20 Time: /I Room: Foss 21 CHEMISTRYFOR CHANGINGTIMES CHM 100-A Instructor: Arlin Gyberg This course is developed in the perspective of a person living in a modern, high technology society such as the United States. It assumes that before one can evaluate a moral or societal issue of a scientific nature one at the least must be able to understand the science involved. Anything less is an impression rather than an informed decision. As we develop scientific concepts we will at the same time relate them to an abundance of current issues. We live in a world of pesticides, fertilizers, plastics, birth control, food abundance and food shortage, food additives and processing and synthesis, organically and non-organically grown food, chemical dependency, licit and illicit drugs, the energy crisis and the debates about sources of energy, the greenhouse effect and nuclear waste storage, pollution, genetic engineering, and much more. Many of these problems are chemical in nature. Thus, in learning about chemistry, via lecture and in-class discussion, we can be helped to understand ourselves, our society, our world, and even some of the universe. The grade for the course is based on a percentage of the total score for total points on the daily quizzes. Prerequisite: Math Placement 2 Liberal Arts Perspective: Natural World 2 Maximum Enrollment: 30 Time: I Room: Science 315 1 NTRODUCT~ONTOCOMPUTINGAND COMMUNICATIONS CSC 160-A Instructor: Larry Ragland Use of the computer as an information accessing tool through e-mail, Internet, newsgroups, and remote access to the library; an introduction to computer science topics in hardware, software, and theory.

Prerequisite: PPST Maximum Enrollment: 25 Time: I1 Room: Library 1 EDS 495-A Instructor: Mary Ann Bayless Why are some things easy for a person to learn while others seem harder? Why does the same task seem easier at one moment and more difficult just a few hours later? Why do some children struggle with seemingly simple assignments but then suddenly master them? Why do more people suffer with learning disabilities and weak short term memory than ever before? Each of us wants to be an efficient and happy learner, but most often, no one has shown us how to be our own life-long learning coaches. In the last decade, work in neurophysiology has given us a whole new set of insights about how the various parts of the brain actually work to produce learning and high level functioning. Educational kinesiologists have taken these insights and produced simple but effective ways to increase the learning comfort of each individual. This course will provide both the theory for each participant to understand her/his own unique learning needs and the practice for becoming an efficient and joyful learner. We will study learning development, braidmind function, and the nature of learning blocks. We will discuss the misuse of brain dominance theory and learn routines for overcoming learning blocks and integrating hemisphere functions. There will be two tests and two demonstrations required of each student, and upper division students will have to do two reviews of relevant research. The course uses two paperback texts. Very useful for prospective teachers and parents. Maximum Enrollment: 20 Time: I Room: Science 112 EDU 353-A Instructor: Rich Germundsen This seminar-style course presents an examination and comparison of selected Western and non-Western educational systems with special attention on Scandinavian and Central American models. The course also draws attention to our personal responsibilities to educate ourselves to be able to understand and participate in the emerging global society. There will be lectures, discussions, presentations by students, and guest speakers. Student evaluation will be based on class presentations and investigative projects. Liberal Arts Perspective: Social World 2 Maximum Enrollment: 15 Time: I Room: Library 17 EDU 388-A Instructor: Joseph Erickson This course is the study of prejudice, discrimination, and oppression as it affects persons of color, the handicapped, limited English speakers, and females.

We'll first work backward from that theorem, considering propositions Euclid cites in proving it (46,41, and 4), and then the propositions he cites in proving those propositions, and so on, gaining familiarity with about 30 major propositions but especially 34,4, and 3, the ones most used. We'll consider other logically-sound ways of arranging these propositions and think about the aesthetic reasons Euclid made his arrangement. After getting to Proposition 1, we'll consider the common notions, definitions, and postulates, learn about how attempts to prove Euclid's fifth postulate led to non-Euclidean geometry in the nineteenth century, and see more logically rigorous geometric axiom systems of the twentieth century. Then we'll read the book forward, seeing how the other propositions fit in and seeing how they lend insight into Euclid's aesthetic choices. Prerequisite: MAT 145,AUGMENT (Calculus I) Liberal Arts Perspective: Western Heritage Maximum Enrollment: 20 Time: I Room: Science 213 MAT 481-A Instructor: Steve Zheng "During World War 11, British military leaders asked scientists and engineers to analyze several military problems: the deployment of radar and the management of convoy, bombing, antisubmarine, and mining operations. The application of mathematics and the scientific method to military operations was called operations research. Today, the term Operations Research (or often, management science) means a scientific approach to decision making, which seeks to determine how best to design and operate system, usually under conditions requiring the allocation of scarce resources." - Wayne L. Winston The main objectives of this course are the discussion of several mathematical models used in operations research (OR) and the use of mathematics and the existing computer packages (such as LINDO) in solving real-life problems in OR. Students in applied mathematics, economics, business and any management-related area are encouraged to take this course.

Liberal Arts Perspective: Christian Faith 2 or 3 REL 343-A Instructor: Cathy Paulsen Marriage has been described in terms of a free fall, a decision that we often make with a portion of our brain and all of our heart. This course will take nothing from the heart, whether you are married or not. It will, however, increase your certainty and the possibility for meaning and intimacy in your life with a partner. In the context of Christian teachings, many theories will be studied, with particular attention given to the work of C.G. Jung, and will be applied to the marital relationship primarily, and to the family secondarily. There will be lectures, discussions, and visiting resource persons.

Prerequisite: Religion 111 or 221 Liberal Arts Perspective: Christian Faith 2 or 3 Maximum Enrollment: 25 Time: I1 Room: Science 213 ~ S S U E S IN SCIENCE AND RELIGION REL 374-A Instructors: John Benson and Mark Engebretson For some in our society science is the driving engine of a better, more secure life and the basis for a philosophy of life. For others, science and its associated technologies, along with its invitation to become a global world view, constitute a grave threat. Some Christians particularly feel threatened by science. This course will address these matters in two ways. First, it will begin with a historical overview of the relations between sci- ence and the Christian faith, emphasizing three periods: the origins of the Christian faith, the development of "modern" science and mechanistic philosophy, and the re-evaluation of science and nature in the 20th century. Second, it will study systematically the world views of science and religion to see how they compare. Class time will be divided among a variety of activities including lectures, whole class discussions, small group tutorials, and an extended simulation exercise in developing a space colony, drawing from the ideas developed in the course. Course evaluation will be based on two short exams, participation in small group tutorials based on assigned readings, a group project presentation, and a major synthesis paper based on the group project and course materials.

In the context of this volunteer experience students have opportunity to interact with human service professionals, clients, and communities of diverse culture/ethnic heritage and special concerns (age, socio-economic status, lifestyles, developmental/physical abilities, gender, etc.). The course is designed to help students learn about themselves in relation to a possible major or future career in the human services. The three-hour weekly seminar is devoted to discussions which assist students in integrating agency experiences and readings which explore the historical development of social welfare as an institution and the nature and value system of social work as a profession. Students will also examine and critique the manner in which social, economic, and political structures impact diverse groups in society. Students will focus on their own responsibilities in society, as well as examine their personal value system in relation to special concerns, such as poverty and the "isms".

' As practitioners, teachers are concerned with enhancing their teaching skills and their students' learning. As professionals, teachers are increasingly responsible for and concerned about educ;ational decision-making. Augsburg College offers a program that addresses this dual focus of classroom practitioner and teacher leader. The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership (MEL) program offers opportunities to increase knowledge and skills (1) for teaching today and (2) for leading education into the future. This program values the role that good teachers play in the lives of students and operates from the belief that teachers can exercise leadership, inside and outside the classroom, without relinquishing the role of teacher . The Minnesota Board of Teaching, in its requirements for teacher licensure programs, acknowledges the importance of developing teachers who have the knowledge and skill to act as leaders, or change agents. Beginning teachers, however, often feel overwhelmed with issues of classroom practice; thus, it is logical to offer a program which includes a "change agent" focus at the degree level sought by veteran teachers. The MEL program incorporates an educational leadership focus alongside the more traditional classroom practice focus to address the expanded role teachers play in today's schools . As a part of this program you will: • Study issues of classroom practice, including teaching and learning, creativity, and multi-cultural ism; • Gain specific know ledge of educational institutions and processes; • Examine who and what leadership is about and explore ways to exercise leadership within your workplace; • Develop expertise in an area of personal interest through an individualized, capstone research project. .. ·. ' ' ' . ... • '• ·.. ~ADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT MODEL .. ., The MEL program promotes leadership as a process which I) inspires cooperation among people, 2) promotes productivity within and beyond the educational organization, and 3) works toward growth and change within the educational organization. Individuals in leadership roles identify three key attributes of leadership: a sense of vision, the ability to persuade, and the ability to direct action. These attributes form the framework for the Leadership Developm~nt Model incorporated into the MEL . . .: :.. . ·. ·. ._. program philosophy. . ; . .. ~ ·•·:..

Elective courses in both components allow students to build ... individual programs Focus I: Classroom Issues and Practice Courses (2.5-4.5 course credits) These courses are offered to degree and non-degree seeking students. A maximum of 4.5 courses may be selected from the list below. One of these must be EDU 513 or ML 560.

Learning: Teaching with the NCTM Math Standards (.5-1.0) Paideia Institutes (.25-1.0) New courses related to topics and issues of current interest in education are added to this list periodically. Focus II: Education Leadership Courses (4.5-6.5 course credits) These courses are required of students pursuing the MEL degree and are not available to students who are not enrolled in the degree program. Educational leadership courses provide students with a supportive framework within which to investigate leadership and the institution of education, to consider themselves as leaders, and to develop expertise in a topic of choice. Both thesis and applied project options are available as capstone research experiences . At least one of these three courses is required for the MEL degree: EDU 511 Legacy of Education (1.0) EDU 51 7 Politics and Public Policy in Education (1.0) EDU 599 Topics in Educational Leadership (.5-1.0) All of the following courses are required for the MEL degree: EDU 510 Ethics and Leadership in Education (or an approved MAL alternative) (1.0) EDU 514 Evaluation and Documentation (or ML 514 Research Methods) (1.0) .' ..

These courses are available to degree seeking students but are not available to non-degree seeking students. For students wanting to explore issues of leadership and organizational change within a broader context, the MEL program will allow up to two electives from the Master of Arts in Leadership program. These courses become part of the Focus II component of the MEL program. See the Master of Arts in Leadership program bulletin for courses. Some students express a theoretical and/or empirical interest in the study of education and/or leadership and identify topics which lend themselves to a more traditional thesis project. An example of a thesis project would be a comparison of the effects of two instructional strategies on student learning. The connection to leadership comes as the thesis writer considers how to share his/her expertise with others. 1[' ~M;~ lis:/LcaidlcrsllAil p Aipip ~katnrnrn P rnjed: At, or near, the completion of the course work for the MEL program, students are required to develop and carry out a study or project related to education and leadership. The focus can be on an issue in education with opportunities for personal leadership, or it can focus on leadership itself within the context of education. This research-based capstone experience affords students the opportunity to become an expert in an area of personal interest as well as to "tie together" what has been learned throughout the MEL program. Students have the option to select either a Thesis or a Leadership Application Project. The decision as to which of these alternatives is selected depends Other students express interest in an applied project which includes the development and implementation of an idea related to education. These students find the Leadership Application Project to be the appropriate culminating experience. An example of a leadership application project is one which includes the development and implementation of a peer mediation training program at the middle school level. Leadership issues emerge as part of the training of students and staff in the use of the program. In both capstone experiences, research forms the foundation for decision-making and direction.

The College follows a 4-1-4 calendar, with Fall and Spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a four-week January Interim. Interim is particularly intended to be a time for both students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and learning and to investigate questions and topics in places and ways not possible during the regular term. Since one Interim course equals a full-time load, students should plan to spend the same amount of time in class and preparing for class as they would for a four-course load during Fall or Spring semesters. Students can register for only one course credit during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who chooses not to enroll in an Interim course. Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale. Students generally have the option to register on a PassINo Credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on the P/N system; this is indicated in the course description. Some courses are offered for either upper or lower division credit. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and the student must select which is most appropriate for their needs. Students registering for upper division credit should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading standard. Some courses, especially courses with travel requirements, have additional fees associated with them. These fees, although intended to be accurate, may change and students should check with the instructor to verify the final costs. To graduate, an Augsburg student who is under the Distribution requirements is required to complete three Interim courses. For a student under the Liberal Arts Perspective requirements, two Interim courses are required. For any student entering after January 1993 a maximum of two Interim course credits may be counted toward the 33 total credits required for graduation. The number of required Interim courses is adjusted for transfer students. Transfer students should refer to their transfer credit evaluation form, or consult the Registrar. Additional Interim credits which can count toward the 33 credits required may be taken by students who repeat a credit for a course in which a grade below 2.0 was earned, or who need to make up for a regular term in which they failed or withdrew from a course. Additional Interim courses not counted toward the 33 credits required may be used to fulfill other degree requirements. That is, no more than two Interim course credits may be taken for credit toward 33, but additional Interim experiences may be used to fulfill major, minor or general education requirements. Day School students (3.0 credits or more for Fall) can take a total of 1.0 course credits. They may take two half credit classes. They may also take a lifetime sport (zero credit). The lifetime sport is at no additional charge if they are full-time (Fall term). If less than full-time they will be charged. Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim which is a Cross-Over, but will be charged Day School prices ($1,270). They also can only then take 1.0 course credits in Weekend College. It is the policy of Augsburg College not to discriminate on the basis of race, creed, national or ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX of the 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, in its admissions policies, educational programs, activities and employment practices.

Introduction The catalog lists courses by department in alphabetical order. At the end of the book are listings of other courses not offered by Aupburg but recogruzed by the College for Interim credit. Additional descriptions and information about these courses are available in the Interim Office, Memorial 230. Students may also register for one of the lifetime sports listed at the end of the catalog. International Interim -Students are invited to be part of one of the 24 international Interim courses offered by the Upper Midwest Association for International Education (UMAIE).See page 48 for course listings. Internships deadline - Friday, December 9. January Interim internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an internship must meet departmental require ments and present a signed internship learning agreement plan to the Internship Office (Murphy Place, Rrn. 8) no later than the last day of Fall classes (Friday, December 9). The Learning Agreement forms are available in the same office. Internships during Interim must involve full-time work placements for approximately four weeks. Assistance for planning your internship is available in the Internship and Cooperative Education Office. Independent or Directed Study - Students may elect a program of independent study (upper division 499) or directed study (lower division 299) for Interim. Faculty members are strongly discouraged from accepting responsibility for more than one independent study per Interim. Students choosing to pursue independent or directed study must: 1. Meet departmental requirements. 2. Present to the Registrar a copy of the proposed study plan approved by the supervising faculty member and the directedlindependent study registration form. These forms must be submitted by November 28. Appropriate study proposal and registration forms can be obtained in the Interim Office. Interims at Other Schools - Augsburg students may enroll at any other 41-4 institution which offers a reciprocal Interim arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim programs can be consulted in the Interim Office. The Interim Secretary will help students in applying for registration at other schools. Registration for Interims at the other ACTC colleges will be at Augsburg during the regular registration period. Most courses taught during Interim at other 4-1-4 schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but might not meet Augsburg's general education requirements. This qualification particularly affects religion courses. Augsburg College welcomes students from other 4-1-4 schools for the January Interim without tuition charges provided the student's home institution agrees not to charge tuition to Augsburg students for the January term. The waiver of tuition does not include special fees, housing or board costs. Other students will be charged $1,270 for the Interim course. Students interested in registering for an Augsburg Interim should write to the Interim Director for application forms or use the forms provided by the Interim office at their own school. There is an application processing fee of $10. Students are welcome to stay on campus but are not required to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be made to the Interim Office. It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor visiting students may register for 299 or 499 courses.

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

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

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

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

A ugsburg College in - is grounded traditions - the traditions of its founders, of the church and of higher education in the liberal arts. From this framework springs a dynamic, challenging and evolving institution that rises to the challenges of today's - and tomorrow's changing world. Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September, 1869, in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The first college stude,ntswere enrolled in 1874 and the first graduation was in 1879. Augsburg is committed to educating the whole person, encouraging and respecting diversity and serving the larger community. Through education, understanding and service, Augsburg faculty, staff and students can affect the future in positive ways. Early Leaders Establish a Direction The phrase, "Think globally, act locally" rings true at Augsburg. The College's location in the heart of the Twin Cities provides rich opportunities for experiential education, volunteer service, internships and cultural enrichment. In a sense, the cities are an extended campus for Augsburg students. Mission Statement Students who graduate from Augsburg are well prepared to make a difference in the world. They stand as testaments to the College motto, "Education for service," and to the Mission of the College: To developfuture leaders of service to the world by providing high quality educational opportunities which are based in the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community. A College of the Church Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, August Weenaas was Augsburg's first president (1869-1876). Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway -Sven Oftedal and Georg Sverdrup. These three men clearly articulated the direction of Augsburg: to educate Norwegian Lutherans to minister to immigrants and to provide such "college" studies that would prepare students for theological study. In 1874 they proposed a three part plan: First, train ministerial candidates; second, prepare future theological students; and third, educate the farmer, worker and businessman. The statement stressed that a good education is also practical. Augsburg's next two presidents also emphatically rejected ivory tower concepts of education. This commitment to church and community has been Augsburg's theme for over one hundred years. Education for Service Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist" college, Georg Sverdrup, Augsburg's second president (1876-1907),required students to get pre-ministerial experience in city congregations. Student involvement in the community gave early expression to the concept of Augsburg's motto, "Education for Service." In the 1890s, Augsburg leaders formed the Friends of Augsburg, later called the About Augsburg 7 Lutheran Free Church. The church was a group of independent congregations committed to congregational autonomy and personal Christianity. This change made Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the small Lutheran body. But the college division was still important primarily as an attachment to the seminary. The Focus Changed This attitude began to change after World War I. In 1911, Georg Sverdrup, Jr., became President. He worked to develop college departments with an appeal to a broader range of students than just those intending to be ministers. Augsburg admitted women in 1922 under the leadership of Gerda Mortensen, Dean of Women. She spent the next 52 years at the College as a teacher and administrator. The College's mission assumed a double character -ministerial preparation together with a more general education for life in society. In 1937, Augsburg elected Bernhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly teacher, to be president (19381962). His involvement in ecumenical and civic circles made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city life. After World War 11, Augsburg leaders made vigorous efforts to expand and improve academic offerings. Now the College was a larger part of the institution than the seminary, and received the most attention. Accreditation for the College Augsburg added departments essential to a liberal arts college, offering a modern college program based on general education requirements and elective majors. With curriculum change came a long effort to become accredited. The College reached full accreditation in 1954, although many alumni had entered graduate schools and teaching positions long before that time. A study in 1962 defined the College's mission as serving the good of society first and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church second. The Seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther Northwestern Seminary) in St. Paul in 1963. A College in the City President Oscar A. Anderson (19631980) continued Augsburg's emphasis on involvement with the city. He wanted to reach out to non-traditional student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all people. During his years of leadership the College became a vital and integral part of the city. Also in these years, Augsbwg added the Music Hall,Mortensen Tower, Urness Tower, the College Center, Ice Arena and Murphy Place. Dr. Charles S. Anderson has led the College since 1980. He guides Augsburg's commitment to liberal arts education, spiritual growth and freedom, diversity in enrollment and programs and a curriculum that draws on the resources of the city as extensions of campus and classroom. Augsburg continues to grow under his leadership. Some of the accomplishments during his tenure include instituting three graduate degree programs, hosting national and international figures at College-sponsored forums and events, increased accessibility and the addition of the Foss Center for Worship, Drama and Communication. - About Augsburg Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the founders who believed: An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community and church; Education should have a solid liberal arts core with a practical dimension in order to send out productive, creative and successful citizens; The city, with all its excitement, challenges and diversity is an unequaled learning laboratory for Augsburg students. Augsburg is a quality liberal arts institution set in the heart of a great metropolitan center. There are now more than 11,800 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.

Anderson President CHARACTERISTICS 0.F- T H E EDUCATIONAL or over a century, Augsburg College has emphasized intellectual freedom in the search for knowledge. Augsburg's academic program builds on a liberal arts foundation to help students understand the past, interpret the present, and plan for the future. F As in the weekday program, Augsburg Weekend College ofSers students a unique combination of the liberal arts disciplines and professional education. Our goals are to help students develop the intellectual skills and attitudes to be lifelong learners, increase their competence in selected areas of professional work, and accomplish a higher level of personal growth. HISTORY OF WEEKEND COLLEGE In Fall of 1982 Augsburg began Weekend College under the directorship of Dr. Rick Thoni. At that time Weekend College had three majors, 69 students, and offered eight courses in the first term. Today with more than 1,100 students and 12 majors, Augsburg's Weekend College is the largest program of its kind in the state. Faculty in Weekend College are full-time Augsburg professors as well as adjunct professionals from the work world. The Weekend College student body has become involved in student government, and Weekend College students participate in academic and extracurricular activities such as the student newspaper, travel seminars, the Weekend College Student Union and the Weekend College Advisory Network (WECAN). Augsburg Weekend College continues to grow and develop to meet the changing needs of the adult and nontraditional student of today. PURPOSE Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults who desire college experience but who work or have other commitments during the week. It is a means by which men and women may earn a baccalaureate degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the liberal arts. MISSION OF THE COLLEGE Students who graduate from Augsburg are well prepared to make a difference in the world. They stand as testaments to the College motto, "Education for Service," and to the Mission of the College: To develop future leaders of service to the world by providing high quality educational opportunities which are based in the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community. THEADULTAS LEARNER A COMMUNITYOF LEARNERS Augsburg Weekend College is designed to meet the needs and preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the assumption that the men and women who enroll in Weekend College will be mature, self-disciplined and well-motivated adult learners who seek a balance of classroom experience and individualized study. Each course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated on-campus study separated by time for independent study and class preparation. Essential to the goals of Augsburg's Weekend College is participation in a community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the student is 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 ALTERNATE WEEKENDS such as the library and the To accommodate this format Christensen Center, to take the for learning, classes generally opportunity of having shared meet on alternate weekends meals and coffee breaks, to for three and one half hours on participate in optional luncheither Friday evening, time seminars, and to attend Saturday morning, Saturday other college activities such as afternoon or Sunday aftermusic and dramatic presentanoon.

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.

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 liberal arts perspectives introduce 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 are encouraged to consult frequently with their advisers to ensure that all requirements are met for graduation. A comprehensive explanation for the General Education Curriculum may be found in the Augsburg College general catalog. C RADUATION REQUIREMENTS The following are the requirements for a baccalaureate degree: 1) Fulfillment of entry level skill requirements in these areas: Math Placement, Critical Thinking, Writing (ENG 1 11 Effective Writing or equivalent), Reading, Word Processing 2) Completion of a major. 3) Completion of courses that fulfill the following Liberal Arts Perspective requirements: Human Identity (one course) Aesthetics (one course) Christian Faith and Values (three courses, or as adjusted for juniortsenior transfer status) The City (one course or community service1 internship experience) A single course may fulfill one perspective only. Only one course from a department may be used to fulfill a single category, except Christian Faith, language and a year long science sequence for Natural World. No more than three courses from any one department may fulfill perspectives. 4) Completion of courses that fulfill the following Graduation Skills: Social World (two courses from different departments) Writing (two courses, one within the major) Western Heritage (two courses from different departments) Critical thinking (one course) Intercultural Awareness (one course) Language Levels 1 and 2 (two courses of the same language) Natural World (two courses from different departments) Speaking (one course) Quantitative reasoning (one course) These courses must be completed with a minimum grade of 2.0 or P. These requirements may be met with courses in the major or by perspectives. Noie: A course may saiisb boih a major or minor requiremeni, a perspeciive and a gradualion skill requiremen,. 5) Demonstration of proficiency in two Lifetime Sports 6 ) Achievement of a Math Placement Group score of I11 The following requirements also must be met to graduate: 1) Completion of 33 course credits 11 of these must be Upper Division (numbered 300 and above); no more than 13 courses may be in any one department with the exception of Accounting, Nursing and Social Work. 2) Maintenance of a minimum grade point average A minimum GPA of 2.0 for most majors is necessary to graduate. A grade point average of 2.0 is required both in overall courses taken and in courses which apply toward the major. Some majors, licensure and certification require higher grades in each course or a higher grade point average. (For example, see Licensure in Education, Nursing, Social Work. See departmental section for details). 3) Residency Seven of the last nine credits must be completed at Augsburg. No less than a total of nine credits are to be taken at Augsburg College. Contact the Registrar if an offical interpretation is needed. 4) Maximums--no more than: Two courses by independent1 directed study Four courses of Internship Eight course credits with a grade of Pass (P) Nontraditional grading (P) also has these limits: two in the major, except Elementary Education and Nursing; one in the minor, if approved by the department chairperson. Students who enter an academic program with a baccaulareate or higher degree should contact the Registrar's Office about specific requirements for a second baccalaureate degree or for the equivalent of a major. The responsibility for meeting all degree requirements rests with the student. Academic advisers, department chairpersons, the Assistant to the Dean for Academic Advising and the Registrar are available for counsel and assistance in program planning. Each student must apply for graduation. Students should apply at the start of their last academic year to confirm remaining graduation requirements. Application forms are available in the Registrar's Office. All degree and course requirements must be completed and verified in the Registrar's Office prior to the anticipated date of graduation (there may be no incomplete courses or open courses on the academic record). See the separate section on Graduation With Distinction on page 34 to learn about requirements for these honors. POLICIES AND PROCEDURES REGISTRATION Registration consists of two parts: Scheduling (choosing classes) - A student reserves a space in classes for each trimester by completing a schedule form. Scheduling can be done in advance of payment. Payment (confirmation of schedule) - A student who has scheduled courses must then confirm that schedule by paying. Dates and deadlines for scheduling and payment are listed in detail in the Weekend College catalog supplement. SOME IMPORTANT ON POINTS REGISTRATION: A student must be registered for a course in order to receive course credit for it. A student in Weekend College is considered fulltime if they register for two courses per trimester (or 2.5 if receiving a Minnesota State Student Grant). Students are responsible for obtaining registration materials from the Weekend College Office. A student who has not paid or made partial payment prior to the first day of classes is not registered for their course(s). The student may register and confirm the first class weekend, but late fees will apply and their space in the course(s) will not be held. CROSSOVER POLICY It is expected that Weekend College students complete their degree requirements in the Weekend College schedule; however, students may take a course in the day schedule as a crossover. A Weekend College student wishing to attend a day schedule course, or a day student wishing to attend a course in Weekend College, must schedule at the Office of the Registrar. Students taking courses in both the day program and Weekend College program schedules which total three or more courses on any given date will be charged comprehensive day program tuition. A Weekend College student taking one day schedule course and who has fewer than three total courses will be charged the current part-time tuition for day school. Students will also follow these guidelines: Students may cross over for one full courselcredit per term. The course selected must have space availability. Weekend College students may not cross over to attend ACTC (Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities) courses, except when required by the major to do so. Courses cross-listed in the Weekend College schedule and the day schedule are not subject to cross over policy. Contact the Office of the Registrar for more information on the crossover policy. WITHDRAWING FROM COURSES Students may drop (also referred to as canceling or withdrawing) a particular course by completing a CancelIAddlChange of Registration form at the Office of the Registrar before the deadline (published in the Weekend College Catalog Supplement). Dropping a class will result in a "W" for withdrawal on an official academic record. Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are registered because this may result in a failing grade on their official academic record. The refund schedule is listed on page 14. Note: A student may withdraw after the refund schedule has expired. WITHDRAWAL FROM COLLEGE Students who do not intend to continue at Augsburg must file a Withdrawal from College form at the Office of the Registrar. This is not necessary if the student is taking a term off; however, Weekend College students who do not attend courses for three consecutive trimesters (excluding summer) are considered inactive and must file an Application for Re-admission form with the Office of the Registrar in order to resume their academic program. Students are responsible for keeping the Office of the Registrar informed of their mailing address. SYLLABUS A syllabus is a course outline written by the instructor which may include a course description and objectives, required text@), course schedule, grading criteria and assignments. A syllabus is especially important in Weekend College because it advises the student of any assignment due the first class weekend. Students are responsible for picking up the course syllabus at the times published in The Weekender, the Weekend College informational publication. EVALUATIONAND C RADI NG 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 Pass/No Credit system, in which P means a grade of 2.0 or better and N means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0. Students who choose the PIN option are cautioned: In order to receive a grade of P, a student must achieve at least a grade of 2.0. Some graduate and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of P-graded courses, or rank each as a "C". P-graded courses do not count toward the requirement that 14 traditionally graded course credits be earned at Augsburg in order to be considered for graduation with distinction. Transfer students should be especially aware of this requirement. See PIN limitations under Graduation Requirements on page 28. Note: Certain courses are offered on one grading system only (e.g., Lifetime Sports are graded PIN only). In courses where there is a choice, students will be graded on the traditional system unless they indicate on their registration that they wish to use the 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 the first five days of classes. NUMBER GRADES Number grades are used with these definitions: 4.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence 3.0 Achieves above basic course standards 2.0 Meets basic standards for the course 1.0 Performance below basic course standards 0.0 Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course) Grades of P (Pass) or N (No credit) are not computed in the grade point average. An incomplete grade (I) may be given only in the case of extreme emergency. To receive an incomplete grade, a student must receive permission of the instructor; must file a form stating the reasons for the request, the work required to complete the course, the plan and date for completing the work, and comments from the instructor; and must gain the approval of the Registrar. If permission is granted, the necessary work must be completed in enough time to allow evaluation of the work by the instructor and filing of a grade before the final day of the following trimester. If the work is not completed by that date, the grade for the course becomes a 0.0. Internships, 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. A final grade will be issued at the end of the term in which the work is completed and evaluated (but not longer than one year). An instructor has the option of not giving an X where satisfactory progress is not demonstrated. A course in which a grade of 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or N has been received may be repeated for credit. Courses in which higher grades have been earned may not be repeated for credit and a grade, but may be audited. All courses taken and grades earned each term remain on the academic record. Only the credits and grades earned the second time, for legitimately repeated courses, are counted toward graduation and in the grade point average. AUDITINGCOURSES Students who wish to take courses without credit or grade may do so by registering for Audit (V). The charge for auditing is listed in the current year's Weekend College Catalog Supplement. The signature of the instructor is required to register an audit. Students who audit a course should confer with the instructor two weeks prior to the beginning of the term to determine expectations, attendance and any other requirements. If expectations have been met, the course will be listed on the transcript as having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the course will be listed with a grade of W (Withdrawn). GRADEPOINTAVERAGE ACADEMIC PROGRESS, PROBATION AND The grade point average (GPA) is based on final grades DISMISSAL 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. The formula for computing the GPA is: - GPA Total grade points divided by number of credits taken.* * Using traditionally graded course credits only. CLASSIFICATION Students are classified in August and at the end of the Fall Trimester. Sophomores - Seven credits completed. Juniors - 16 credits completed. Seniors - 24 credits completed. The College requires that students maintain the following cumulative grade point averages (GPA): Freshman - A student who has taken fewer than seven credits with a cumulative GPA of 1.6 or higher Sophomore - A student who has taken fewer than 16 credits with a cumulative GPA of 1.7 or higher Junior - A student who has taken fewer than 24 credits with a cumulative GPA of 1.9 or higher Senior - A student who has taken 24 or more credits with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher. It should be noted that a minimum GPA of 2.0 is required for graduation with certain majors requiring a higher minimum GPA. Students whose academic achievement falls below these guidelines will either be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term, will be continued on probation or, will be dismissed from the College. In addition, a freshman who receives two zero grades or a sophomore who receives three zero grades will be considered for probation or dismissal. However, dismissal from the College is not automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on Student Standing. Evidence of the student's commitment to academic progress is the major consideration in deciding whether or not to dismiss a student. Those on probation who voluntarily withdraw from the College, as well as those who are dismissed, must have special permission to re-enroll. Students may be removed from probation when the cumulative GPA reaches the minimum level stated above. Students placed on probation as freshmen for having earned two zero grades may be removed from probation if their classification changes to sophomore, if they have not earned additional zero grades, and if their cumulative GPA reaches 1.7. Students placed on probation as sophomores for having earned three zero grades may be removed from probation if their classification changes to junior and their cumulative GPA reaches 1.9. The College reserves the right to dismiss any student who does not meet the guidelines stated above. Once a student is dismissed, he or she may appeal the decision within 10 days to the Committee on Student Standing. DEAN'S LIST The Dean's List is compiled after each trimester, listing students whose grade point average for a trimester is 3.5 or better. Students must be full-time (a minimum two full course credits for a Weekend College student), graded on the traditional grading system, with no incompletes in courses offered for credit. If permission is given by the student, an announcement is sent to the hometown newspaper of each student on the Dean's List. 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 credits) of work at Augsburg. ASSESSMENT OF PREVIOUS LEARNING (APL) PROGRAM Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in many life situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit recognition within the disciplines that compose the academic program of a liberal arts college. The Assessment of Previous Learning (APL) program at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous learning, other than that which is transferred from another accredited institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward the completion of a baccalaureate degree. Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two essential criteria: 1) it is relevant to course work in a field of study within the Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and 2) it can be objectively demonstrated either by comprehensive examination or committee evaluation. The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which students may have their previous learning assessed for credit recognition. The following is a brief description of each of these means of assessment: The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) This is a series of standardized tests which have been developed by the College Board and are offered to students for a small fee at regional testing centers. (The regional testing center for this area is the University of Minnesota.) Students who score at or above the 65th percentile on a subject examination may receive academic credit for that subject at Augsburg College. Additional information about CLEP tests is available from the Office of the Registrar. Departmental Comprehensive Exams These are available for students to use in obtaining credit for previous learning if the following conditions are met: There is a departmental instrument available for the subject area in question. There is a faculty member designated by the department to administer the exam. The Registrar approves the student's request to take the exam. Credit for departmental exams is available on a passlno credit basis only, and there is a charge per exam of $485.00 for a full course credit. The Credit Assessment Program (CAP) This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the student. The faculty committee is composed of a representative from the Office of the Registrar and two faculty members from fields of study directly related to the student's previous learning. Informational meetings and consultation are provided for students who wish to prepare a portfolio of previous learning for credit assessment. This may include a personal meeting with the CAP committee. In completing the evaluation of a student's previous learning, the CAP committee applies the following criteria: There is documentable evidence of a cognitive component in the previous learning experience that involved prescribed andlor systematic study of content material found within liberal arts course work. The learning has been objectively verified by individuals in addition to the presenting student. The learning lends itself to both qualitative and quantitative measurement. The learning relates well to the student's educational goals. The learning and skills involved are current and could be used at the present time. Students may apply for the credit assessment process after completing at least four courses of academic work at Augsburg College with a cumulative Augsburg GPA of at least 2.5. It is strongly recommended that the process not be used when four or fewer courses remain for graduation. There is an application deposit to initiate the credit assessment process, and a charge for each semester credit applied to the student's transcript if credit is approved. Transcript credit will be granted on the basis of semester credits, and the total number of credits granted will be divided by four to determine the number of course credits applied to graduation. These credits will be recorded with the course number of CAP 2xx. Application of this credit toward the Liberal Arts Perspective requirements, Upper Division requirements, and academic majors and minors may be subsequently addressed by the departments involved in response to a formal request by the student. Maximum Credit Accepted for Previous Learning While Augsburg College recognizes the validity of learning that takes place outside the traditional classroom, this learning must be placed in the context of formal study in campus-based liberal arts courses. Therefore, Augsburg places a maximum of eight courses (one-fourth of a baccalaureate degree) on transcript credit that is obtained through previous experiential learning. In compiling the eight courses of credit for previous experiential learning, the student may use any combination of the three assessment processes available in the APL program: CLEP exams, departmental exams and credit granted through CAP Committee assessment. Lifetime Sports Assessment of Previous Learning (APL) Program Students in the Weekend College may complete one or both of the two required graduation skills of Lifetime Sports through the APL process. The Lifetime Sports graduation skills are non-academic courses and no credit is earned by their completion; however, fulfillment of two Lifetime Sports is necessary to graduate. There is a fee for each Lifetime Sport completed by APL. Additional information about Lifetime Sport APL is available from the Weekend College Office.

A minor is available in several of these academic areas as well as in Sociology, American Indian Studies and Women's Studies (see page 55 for details). ACCOUNTING - ACC The major in accounting prepares students for professional careers in a wide variety of accounting-related positions. This major has two tracks: General Accounting and Professional Accounting. The General Accounting specialization is adequate for a wide variety of positions. The Professional Accounting track includes two specializations: public accounting and managerial accounting. The public accounting spccialization is recommended for positions with CPA firms. The managerial accounting specialization is recornmended for positions with large or rapidlygrowing companies. Thc two professional specializations rclate to two professional dcsignations: the CPA and the CMA. A CPA (Ccrtificd Public Accountant) focuses on cxtcrnal reporting; a CMA (Ccrtificd Management Accountant) focuscs on internal reporting. The public accounting specialization includes the materials emphasized on the CPA exam; the managerial specialization includes the materials emphasized on the CMA exam. Designations have an experi- ence requirement in addition to passing the national exam. Under the rules of the Minnesota State Board of Accountancy, Accounting majors in the public accounting specialization are qualified to sit for the CPA examination during their last semester. Accounting Core: 14 courses including: ECO 112 Principles of Macroeconomics ECO 113 Principles of Microeconomics MIS 175 Principles of Computing for Business BUS 242 Principles of Management BUS 252 Principles of Marketing ACC 221 Principles of Accounting I ACC 222 Principles of Accounting I1 MIS 379 Quantitative Methods for Business and Economics BUS 301 Business Law BUS 331 Financial Management ACC 322 Accounting Theory and Practice I BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION BUS ACC 323 Accounting Theory and Practice I1 The major in Business Administration prepares students for professional careers in business administration or for graduate studies. The four specializations within this major share a common business core. This common core provides students with a broad foundation so they can readily adapt to internal changes in interests and goals and to external changes in circumstances and opportunities. ACC 324 Managerial Cost Accounting ACC 425 Advanced Accounting (It is recommended that students take the courses in the sequence given above.)

The minor is automatically completed while completing a major in Accounting or Management Information Systems (MIS). COMMUNICATION SPC Our quality of life, both personally and professionally, depends in large part upon the quality of our communication. A Communication major at Augsburg is designed to enhance understanding of communication in a variety of contexts and to improve communication skills. Since careers in communication demand a broad educational background, the Department strongly encourages a second major or two minors in fields such as business, economics, English, history, international relations, political science, psychology, religion, social work or sociology. The Augsburg Communication major focuses on competency in both speech and writing, as well as effective use of media. Since the study and practice of communication is grounded in both the humanities and the social sciences, majors are encouraged to include such related subjects as aesthetics, ethics, philosophy, logic, literature, statistics and research methods in their programs. All Communication majors must complete a core group of seven required courses, supplemented by five electives in one of the following concentrations: public relations and advertising, marketing communication, human relations, or supervisory management. Prospective majors should meet with a departmental adviser as early as possible to design an approved major program, preferably by the end of the sophomore year. Majors in Communication are candidates for the Bachelor of Arts degree. Communication Core Seven courses including: SPC 111 Public Speaking SPC 351 Argumentation SPC 352 Persuasion SPC 354 Interpersonal Communication SPC 355 Small Group Communication POL 342 Mass Communication in Society and one of the following: ENG 223 Writing for Business and the Professions ENG 225 Intermediate Expository Writing ENG 226 Introduction to Creative Writing ENG 227 Journalism In addition, 5 courses must be completed within one of the following concentrations: Public Relations and Advertising Students interested in the Public Relations emphasis are strongly urged to take ENG 227 (Journalism) as part of the major.

I . Developing Leaders for Organizations and the Community The Master of Arts in Leadership responds to the leadership development needs of profit and not-for-profit organizations. While different in structure and purpose, most organizations seek leaders with the following qualities: • a vision which is ethically and morally responsible, extending beyond immediate concerns; • an understanding of how change occurs and affects the immediate environment; • a sensitivity to the complex problems organizations face, and an ability to achieve solutions consistent with an organization's mission; • the ability to motivate and inspire individuals and groups to work toward a common goal; and • the ability to effectively represent the organization both internally and externally. The Master of Arts in Leadership provides a means by which individuals may discover and refine these and other abilities and awareness fundamental to effective leadership. Accommodating the Full-Time Work Schedule The Master of Arts in Leadership program is designed .. . .. .... to meet the needs and preferences of working adults. The program is based on the assumption that the men and women who enroll are employed, self-disciplined and well-motivated individuals who seek a balance of classroom experience, group interaction and individual study. Each course is, therefore, divided into periods of study, group efforts and class preparation. To accommodate this format for learning, each class meets on alternate Saturdays for three-and-one-half hours and alternate Thursday evenings for one-and-one-half hours. Leadership Development Model . • t . The Master of Arts in Leadership program promotes leadership as a process which I) inspires cooperation among people who must compete for limited resources, 2) promotes productivity within and beyond the organization, and 3) works toward progress for the individual and the organization. To accomplish this, individuals aspiring to positions of leadership must possess three key attributes: a sense of vision, the ability to persuade, and the ability to direct action. ... .. '. ...... ·:·. .. ...·· . t .. . 1· f ~· ·: · : ., •' • ; I ' -1 ' • • • I , ' .~ . .. . l., . 4 ... . :.;' . •. ·. ... . . ...,• . • .. -.• ·, . ·. ' •I ~TRODUCTION Underlying these attributes is a broad range of abilities and awareness. These abilities and awarenesses, outlined in the diagram on page 5, serve as specific outcomes for the Master of Arts in Leadership. Augsburg's model of leadership development is designed to assess, promote, enhance and refine these capabilities within the individual. Community of Learners . .. ~ ' ; ..,..•'•· , - .. ', I. ·• .. ·.. ~. .•. • .. . ' ·• ·'·" . , Essential to the goals of the Master of Arts in Leadership is participation in a community of learners gathered together on the Augsburg campus. Learning is 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 facilitates such as the library, computer labs and the Christensen Center; to take the opportunity to share meals and coffee breaks; to participate in optional lunch time seminars; and to attend other college activities such as music and dramatic presentations, and athletic events. Individual Professional Development 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 tenns during their graduate work at Augsburg. Upon completion of the entire practicum, students receive a half course credit. In each tenn, specific activities related to the practicum are scheduled. Early in the program a major component of this practicum is a full-day professional assessment to determine students' abilities and potential relative to each of the outcomes of the Leadership Development Model (see page 5). 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". Augsburg has contracted with Personnel Decisions, Inc. (PDI) to organize and facilitate the practicums. PDI is a professional consulting firm providing the full range of psychological and human resource services to enhance individual and organizational effectiveness. The practicums work on a rotating series of six, one per trimester. The practicums are designed to meet the needs of the students in the following areas: effective persuasion, communication techniques, identifying and defining problems, decision making, interpersonal skills required for leadership and other professional development topics. Each practicum will focus on a specific topic and use mini-lectures, small group exercises and experiential learning. Students are required to participate in the practicum workshop with PDI during the same term they participate in the professional assessment. • r • ;·, .._.,.

Thesis/Leadership Application Project Requirement At, or near, the completion of the course work for the Master of Arts in Leadership program, students are required to develop and carry out a study of some aspect of leadership or leadership related topic. This research based study affords the student the opportunity to "tie together" what has been learned from the study of leadership in the course work, course related activities and the practicum sessions. Students in the Master of Arts in Leadership program have the option to do either a Thesis or a Leadership Application Project for completion of the Master of Arts in Leadership degree. The decision as to which of these capstone alternatives is selected depends on the interests and orientation of the student. Some students express a theoretical interest in the study of leadership and identify topics which lend themselves to a more traditional thesis project. Other students express interest in a more applied approach to leadership and wish to pursue investigations which are not appropriate for more traditional thesis topics. Students with more practical topics in mind are likely to select the Leadership Application Project. Both the Thesis and the Leadership Application Project should be seen as the culmination of the Master of Arts in Leadership program, offering participants the opportunity to either investigate some aspect of leadership in depth or explore the application of what has been studied. The principal distinction between these two options lies in their underlying orientation. The Thesis will have a more theoretical orientation, while the Leadership Application Project will be based on a more practical applied orientation. The difference between these two options will be explored in more detail in the ML 514 Research Methods course, taken during the first year of the student's program. ·~ .

Drawing on various disciplines, course participants will examine the different stages of the decision making process including: analysis of the decision setting and its relevant boundaries, identification of acceptable decision outcomes, definition of the implementation of the decision and appraisal of potential contingencies. While emphasis is given to the qualitative rather than quantitative aspects of decision making, about 20 percent of the course will include the development of some basic analytical concepts: data collection, graphs and charts, measuring central tendency and dispersion, and association. .... .. .. ..., . ... . . . .. .. ...: . . ..:. .. . . . . .. ... ... ·• . ·. •' ~ ~, .......

Dual concerns of the Augsburg Master of Social Work Program are the delivery of service to families in all their diverse forms and the planning, development and administration of services. Social justice is a particular focus throughout the program, while individuals are recognized as capable of adaptation, growth and change. Intellectual, physical, spiritual, emotional and psychosocial issues are addressed with clients in relation to their locus, be they within the individual, the family, the community or the larger societal systems. Client self-determination, growth and empowermen t (personal recognition of one's ability, rights and place in the social change process) are recognized and fostered through support and education. In the interests of constructive social change that promotes social justice, students are educated to address institutional oppression (e.g. , age, gender, race, disability and religion). Professional preparation at the Master of Social Work level at Augsburg is founded on the following assumptions: .., Analysis and presentation of complex social issues and solutions must be based on solid research. Augsburg MSW students will develop competencies to conduct, analyze and present practice-based research . .., The world is interdependent in all areas, including human needs and the services to address them. Students will become knowledgeable of social welfare policies and programs that address changing needs of the world community. Accommodating the Needs of Adult Learners The Master of Social Work Program is designed to meet the needs of adult students, (e.g. ,students who are employed, have family obligations and/or must travel distance to obtain graduate social work education). Augsburg College takes pride in its focus on adult learners throughout its programs. TI1e College is committed to education for experienced working people. The Weekend College now equals the size of the traditional day program. The library, student center, computer center, counseling, parking, food service and many other support services are open to accommodate students. Faculty arrange office hours to meet student needs. Inexpensive oncampus accommodations are available for students who travel to attend the program and wish to stay overnight. Classes meet during alternate weekends in four hour blocks: Friday evening, Saturday morning and Saturday afternoon. Students meet one Sunday afternoon per trimester for a program seminar that addresses specific professional issues related to ethics. The MSW Program builds on the liberal arts base of the College and supports the College's mission statement: To dt.>velop future leaders of service to the world by providing high quality educational opportunities wl11'ch are based in tlie liberal arts and shaped by tlte faith and values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community. The courses of study include the Core, the Concentration, one elective and the Thesis seminar. Students must complete 18 courses (twelve, if the Foundation Core is waived). The complete program includes: nine core courses (six Foundation; three Advanced) seven Concentration-related courses; one elective and a Master's Thesis Seminar. This includes 900 hours of professionally supervised, MSW Program-approved social work field experience. The Foundation Core begins the Augsburg MSW Program. These six courses, including 420 hours of MSW Program approved field work, must be successfully completed prior to enrollment in the Advanced Core or concentration courses. These courses may be waived for persons who hold a baccalaureate degree in Social Work from a CSWE accredited program. • I The Pre-Concentration Core consists of three courses, which are required of all students. These courses are the enrry point in the program for persons with baccalaureate degrees in social work from institutions accredited by the Council on Social Work Education. Concentrations Concentrations are in two areas: Family Practice and Prognm Development, Policy and Administration. These concentrations include six courses beyond the Pre-Concentration Core, including 480 hours of college approved, professionally-supervised field work. Research II focuses on practice of the concentration. Family Practice Family, in its diverse forms, is central to society. ''Pamily,"in this context, is interpreted broadly as the nurturing system surrounding people. It is inclusive of many areas of need. As a growing number of family-related challenges face society, there is an ever-increasing need for professionals who base their professional practice on in-depth study of the broad spectrum of issues that confront the family. In the Family Practice concentration, students will concentrate on promoting empowerment of the family nurturing systems from a developmental and holistic perspective. Program Development, Policy and Administration Social change is necessary for fostering policies and service that respond to human need. Tile Program Development, Policy, and Administration concentration has been developed in response to the growing demand for creative leadership and administration. Effective services require participative development, competent practitioners, strong leadership and effective administration. Students following this concentration will develop the abilities and skills necessary to promote and achieve needed change, and develop, lead, guide and administer programs that will serve diverse people in a variety of settings. Electives Students must select a minimum of one elective in their course of study toward the MSW degree. Students are encouraged to select other electives to develop special interests. Master's Thesis and Seminar The thesis is intended to represent the capstone of the student's work. All students complete a Master's thesis based on practice in their area of concentration. A thesis seminar supports students in developing their theses. .A.

Emphasized is the role of the "nurturing environment" in relation to human growth, the impact of the "sustaining environment," and other special stresses relevant to growth. Growth related to populations and groups which represent ethnic and/or life-style diversity is a focus. Students gain self-understanding through use of their own experiences. SWK 501 History of Social Welfare Policy This course emphasizes the dynamic nature of social welfare history and current social systems and social policy as they relate to all our lives and especially to the lives of clients, communities and social workers. Comparisons are made internationally, with a focus on England's influence on early U.S. "poor law''and social welfare. Special emphasis will be placed on analyzing the major assumptions, ideas and events which contributed to the rise of the welfare state and the profession of social work. The profession's values, ethics and historical development are also reviewed. Both theoretically and practically, this course enables students to assess the development of social welfare with an understanding of the influence of social work and of the development and impact of social policy. SWK 502 Field Work I Students select their own field placement from a list of Programapproved agencies. Beginning supervised professional experience in a social work setting focuses on interviewing experience and relationship building. Supportive seminars coordinate integration of theory and practice, as well as providing the supportive setting for raising social work practice issues with peers. SWK 503 Field Work II Continuing supervised professional experience in the same social work setting, consecutive to Field Work I, focuses on refining previous skills and understanding and moving into new tasks. Initiative and progressively more independent work over time is supported. - ·_. ·:-.. SWK 505 Methods and Skills of Social Work I This course identifies basic features of the helping process: theoretical foundation, principles and techniques of Social Work intervention. It provides role play and simulation experience necessary for social work practice with individuals, families and groups. Throughout the course, work with a diversity of professional, natural helping networks and client groups is stressed. SWK 506 Methods and Skills of Social Work II This course emphasizes systems and social change through a focus on community organization, social planning and social change and their connection to social policy. A focus on group work continues into the macro setting with task oriented groups. Other theories and methods appropriate to these macro approaches are studied. Skills are developed using role plays and actual work with a community group. Throughout, the focus is on work with diverse groups. Pre-Concentration SWK 504 Research I Research plays an important role in building knowledge for social work practice. This course provides an overview of methods commonly used in social science research, in addition to the ethical and applicability concerns in social work research. Research design is studied using both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Methods of program evaluation are discussed. Students have beginning hands-on experience with the use of computers to analyze data statistically. SWK 520 Introduction lo Family Practice Theories and concepts underlying holistic professional social work practice with families are explored. This course addresses concepts of families in their diverse forms and function in the context of the life cycle of their members, family systems theory, the dual perspective, and stressors which may shape or alter family development. Ethical issues of professional social work practice with families are integral to this course. SWK 521 Introduction to Program Development, Policy and Administration Social services are commonly carried out through organizations; thus social workers are usually members of organizations. Organizations and the effective functioning of social workers within them is the focus of this course. With an assumption of "organizations as communities," an overview of theories of organizational development, maintenance and communication are presented. The contributions of diversity in the agencyI community is an important focus. Social workers' important roles in agencies, as well as professional, ethical, effective functioning in organizations are explored. Concentrations SWK 523 & 524 Field Work III & IV The purposes of the Field Support Seminars are (1) to provide the student opportunities to share experiences from his/her practice in a confidential setting; (2) to give and get support, honest feedback, and valid encouragement on issues regarding field placements, in particular, and social work practice with families or in administration/program development, in general; (3) to discuss and help the student integrate theories and methods from other social work classes into the practice experience; and (4) to promote the development of students' leadership roles in organizations. These seminars accompany the 480 hours of professional supervised field work in the area of concentration. SWK 527 Research II This course offers a practice-oriented exploration of the range of research methods used in social work, a critique of the role of research in assessing effectiveness in the social service delivery, and identification with the responsibility of social workers "to expand the knowledge base" of social work. Building on the basic research skills developed in Research I, students actively adopt the researcher's role in relation to both their current agency experience and their preferred practice setting. The course will enable students to use basic statistical methods for organizing, interpreting and analyzing quantitative data, plus creative techniques for qualitative data. Family Practice SWK 540 Family Practice I This course builds on content initiated in the Introduction to Family Practice course, focusing in-depth on the "normal" developmental crises of the family across the lifespan, and in relation to the larger environment. Problem-solving methods and cross-cultural models of practice are studied as well as policies that affect families and practice. This course is a prerequisite to SWK 541 Family Practice II and must be taken prior to or concurrent with SWK 523 Field Work III. SWK 541 Family Practice II This course is a continuation of Family Practice I. It further explores the family as cause and effect in the community in benefitting from or changing social policy. Students will study issues for further discussion, culminating in development of their own service delivery models. Ethical and religious dilemmas (e.g. abortion, euthanasia) will be raised. Advanced study of family developmental issues focuses on catastrophic events and on empowering families and the profession to take leadership in developing appropriate intervention strategies and policies. SWK 542 Family Diversity This course examines the various theories underlying professional practice with families in their many diverse forms. Recognizing that the family is the basic institution through which one is socialized, this course will also examine how family membership shapes one's understanding and appreciation of ethnicity, gender roles, sociological script. The course also explores the impact of policies, discrimination and political, social, and economic disorder on diverse families. SWK 543 Creative Problem Solving for Supervision This course examines how social workers can discover their own creative abilities in relation to innovation in social work supervision and practice. The course examines the relationship of creativity and self-esteem. This course also explores ways to help others, e.g. workers, clients, agencies and communities to eliminate barriers which inhibit creative responses to problemsolving and practice. Program Development, Policy and Administration SWK 550 Processes of Program Planning and Development Building on the community organization and research foundation (including needs determination and program evaluation), the primary processes of program development study in this course are: techniques of program planning and budgeting, development of necessary community and larger public support, identification and mobilization of resources, and funding proposal preparation. SWK 551 Organizational Development and Administration The activities and skills necessary for effective program administration are studied including short- and long-range planning; leadership; program implementation and management; personnel recruitment, allocation, supervision and management; social work values and ethics in the workplace; analysis of financial statements; administrative policy, board relations and agency policy implementation. SWK 552 Interorganization, Community and Political Relations The development and maintenance of constructive relationships with external organizations in both the public and private sectors are critical to successful implementation and management of social service programs. An organization's power to influence social policy is related to such relationships. The development and maintenance of these relationships so critical to the provision of services that address community needs, and the influence of social policy to effect social change are the foci of this course. Among topics included are: interorganizational relations, public relations, public information, political activity and leadership. SWK 553 Advanced Social Policy All social workers have impact on the development and modification of social policy whether intentionally or unconsciously. This course provides an in-depth focus on the development and implementation of social policy at the various levels of the public and private sectors. The various means by which social workers can have intentional impact on policymaking and exercise leadership roles is studied. Reading, seminars and an internship in the policy area are included. Topics Topics 560 Topics such as the following are offered for students to choose as electives: SWK 560 Old Age: Identifying and addressing creatively, the physical, psychological and socioeconomic needs of elderly people, their families and the communities in which they live. A variety of racial, cultural and life-style perspectives are studied. Values and ethical considerations which accompany geriatric knowledge and its technological advances are explore together with existing and proposed public policies. Methods of developing and changing social policy related to this population to promote social justice are studied. SWK 560 Child Welfare: History Policy and Practice. An overview of child welfare services. Permanency planning and family-based services are the underlying themes through which current child welfare policies and practices are examined. The course will concentrate on ethnically sensitive practice to address the disproportion of oppressed groups and persons represented in the child welfare system. SWK 560 Dual Diagnosis: Mental Health and Substance Abuse. Focusing on individuals who suffer from both addictive behaviors and mental health disorders, a broad array of related topics are considered. The challenges involved with assessment; comparisons and contrasts; psychopathology and the outcome of psychoactive substances abuse; management approaches in the human services delivery system; the effects of and response to dual diagnosis cross-culturally; and available services are among topics explored . ..· '. . . SWK 560 Poverty, Equality and Income Support Policy: Program and policy issues around poverty, income distribution and social welfare reform are examined. Among issues explored are equality and income distribution, the changing composition of the poverty population, causes and politics of poverty, existing and proposed strategies. Current federal, state and local approaches as well as new initiatives are studied such as the social insurance program, child support policies, the Earned Income Tax Credit concept, etc. SWK 560 Contemporary Practices in Developmental Disabilities: The nature of developmental disabilities and services needed by persons with developmental disabilities and their families are studied. Current systems of services, legal perspectives, responsibilities and roles and functions of the various disciplines which provide services are explored. SWK 560 Social Work with Involuntary Clients: Clients who are required by legal mandates or other forces to have contact with social workers and the involuntary transactions therein are the foci of this course. Social work theory, ethical principles, research findings and practice skills needed to help involuntary clients are studied and applied. Thesis SWK 589 Master's Thesis and Seminar The study of research, like all of social work, comes alive in the implementation. A thesis is required of all Master of Social Work candidates so they may experience and learn the utility of research to social work practice, and so they can contribute to the knowledge of social work practice and to the building of social work theory. The thesis is based on an area of the student's practice focus.
