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.

Most faculty hold the doctorate or other terminal degree and all consider their teaching to be the focus of their activity. Faculty are involved in social, professional and a variety of research activities, but see these activities as supporting their teaching. They are actively involved in an exciting faculty development program which introduces them to current thought in many fields but especially in teaching techniques and theories. Augsburg's size and small classes encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and students. Faculty act as academic advisers and participate regularly in campus activities. History Augsburg College was founded in 1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The name Augsburg College and Seminary changed in 1963 when the Lutheran Free Church merged with The American Lutheran Church. Location Augsburg's 23-acre campus is in the heart of the Twin Cities metropolitan area, only blocks from downtown Minneapolis and the intersection of Interstate Highways 94 and 35W.

Campus Augsburg's campus consists of 15 major buildings which include student housing towers, the College Center, main academic and administrative halls, the Library, Music Hall and the Foss Center for Worship, Drama and Communication. Accessibility We have made a major effort to become one of the most accessible campuses in the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any of 10 major buildings without going outside. In addition to building changes, we have a student-run program to increase awareness and provide extra help for students with disabilities. Church Affiliation Augsburg is a college of The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Although a strong plurality of students are Lutheran, 18 percent represent other Protestant denominations and 2 1 percent represent the Roman Catholic Church. Several other affiliations are represented among students and faculty.

Persons seeking additional information on these topics should contact the Vice President for Student Affairs Office. A ugsburg College constructs its curriculum upon the premise that students must be educated as fully human persons - intellectually, spiritually and physically. To act effectively, human beings must have a broad grasp of the world from which they have come as well as the world in which they live. By providing courses in the humanities, natural sciences and social sciences, the 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.

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.

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.

NURSING - NUR The Augsburg Nursing Program is designed exclusively for registered nurses who want to increase their opportunities in the health care field. The scope of nursing practice is changing and expanding. Nurses are being called on to function in a variety of settings that differ from those in the past. Today nurses work in hospitals, clinics, corporations, government agencies, schools and community organizations; some are self-employed running their own businesses. All of these nurses provide comprehensive health assessment for individuals from all cultures and socioeconomic levels. From helping parents have safe deliveries of healthy infants to coordinating home care for the dying, nurses assist people through their entire life span. The Baccalaureate degree equips the nurse with a working knowledge of the biological, physical, social, behavioral and nursing sciences. The nursing program at Augsburg College also provides the educational opportunities to increase skills in critical thinking, clinical investigation and decisionmaking that prepare nurses to handle challenging new positions in today's health care field. NUR 3.50 Introduction to Nursing Research Augsburg's nursing program, leading to a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Nursing, is accredited by the National League for Nursing.

PSYCHOLOGY - PSY Psychology, with its emphasis on behavioral observation and data, provides a perspective on human activities which is an integral part of liberal education. The goal of the Psychology program is the improved understanding of human behavior by studying how people cope with their environment and interact with each other. Psychologists use a variety of methods to study behavior, including experimentation, observation and clinical case analysis. Faculty members have varied professional specializations such as counseling, physiological psychology, human development, personality, social and organizational psychology, and analysis of public policy. The Psychology program's emphasis on the use of a problem solving approach, the acquisition of information about human development and interaction, and the development of human relations skills can be beneficial in careers in business, education and other social services, the church government, as well as in careers such as research, law and medicine.

RELIGION- REL Augsburg College understands itself as a college of the church and it is persuaded that the Christian faith provides an appropriate perspective from which to undertake its educational task. The biblical faith and tradition of the Christian Church have influenced the whole world and they have affected and continue to influence language, literature, history, values and political structures. The student encounters this religious tradition in studying these and other areas. The study of religion and theology is intended to make such encounters more meaningful through a better knowledge of biblical history and that of the Christian Church, and by a larger acquaintance with theological thought. While it is true that the fundamental orientation of this College is to the Christian faith, it is also true that the field of religion obviously includes more than is represented by the Christian faith. Large segments of the earth's population live by religious concepts and ideas which are different from Christianity. The Department of Religion seeks to introduce students to some of these major religious traditions. Religion Major Eight courses including: REL 11 1 Introduction to Theology REL 221 Biblical Studies Other Requirements Religion 11 1 or 221 is prerequisite to all other courses and is to be taken in either the freshman or sophomore year at Augsburg. Exceptions may be made for junior or senior transfer students, but the basic courses are still highly recommended as preparation for Upper Division courses.

' 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.

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.

Interim Courses ................................................................ 6 UMAlE Courses............................................................... 48 Other Courses ................................................................ 49 Augsburg Lifetime Sports ................................................ 51 . . . Interim is an integral part of the school year at Augsburg College. The College follows a 41-4 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 Pass/No 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, 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. 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. 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.

The catalog lists courses by departments. Departments are listed in alphabetical order. At the end of the book are listings of other courses not offered by Augsburg but recognized by the College for Interim credit. Additional descriptions and infomation 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). These course opportunities are listed near the end of this catalog. Internships deadline - Friday, December 10. January Interim internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an internship must meet departmental requirements and present a signed Internship Learning Agreement Plan to the Internship Office (Murphy Place, Rm. 8) no later than the last day of Fall classes (Friday, December 10). 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 29. 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 the Interim at other 41-4 schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but may not necessarily be accepted as meeting Augsburg's general education require ments. This qualification particularly affects courses offered in religion. Augsburg College welcomes students from other 41-4 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 dors not include special fees, housing or board costs. Other students will bc charged $1,050 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 both ACTC exchange students and visiting students may not register for 299 or 499 courses.

In so doing the massive body of evidence in support of evolution will be addressed as will the pathway of the evolutionary process and the proposed mechanisms of that process. Notwithstanding its acceptance by the vast majority of biologists, evolution continues to be surrounded with controversy. The antievolution movement including its newest form, "scientific creationism," will be studied as will the ongoing scientific debate concerning evolutionary mechanisms. Finally the course will focus on some of the reciprocal relationships between evolution and society. There will be a variety of readings, and classes will consist primarily of lectures and discussion. Some audieslide presentations and videotapes will be utilized. Grading will be based primarily on quizzes and tests, but participation in discussion will also be a consideration. Prerequisite: High school biology Distribution: Biology/Chemistry Liberal Arts Perspective: Natural World 2 Maximum Enrollment: 20 Time: I Room: Science 2 1 3 BIO 7 40-A BIO 340-A lnstructoc Dale Pederson The Florida Keys provide an excellent site for the study of marine organisms and marine ecology. Most of the approximately two weeks in Florida will be spent at the Newfound Harbor Marine Institute located on Big Pine Key. The Institute offers laboratory facilities and field trips in addition to housing and a dining hall. Field trips will permit the study of diverse habitats such as those of coral reefs, shallow bays, mangrove swamps, sea-grass communities, and tide pools. Organisms from these communities and others will be investigated on site and in the laboratory. A marine biologist from the Institute will be available to lead all field trips and conduct specialized classes. Upon termination of the program at the Institute, there will be a short t i p to the Florida Everglades to experience yet another interesting environment. Preparation for the excursion to the Keys will be made during the week prior to the trip. This will include an introduction to marine biology utilizing a variety of audiovisual materials. The final week will be devoted primarily to study and the completion of the course requirements. Cost is $1,350. Evaluation will be based on overall participation in the program, a detailed journal based on daily experiences, and a final examination. Upper division students will also do a special research project which will be the basis of an extensive paper.

Prerequisite: ECO 1 12 Distribution: Liberal Arts Perspective: Maximum Enrollment: 15 Time: I Room: Memorial Hall 323 CHE 100-A lnstructoc Arlin Gyberg This is a non-laboratory chemistry course based on the popular book by John W. Hill of the same title. It is not a traditional chemistry course and does not assume a science background. Basic science and math are introduced early and taught as needed for understanding the various topics and implications. The course does assume the student is interested in and concerned about the relationship of chemistry to life and living. Chemistry has been intimately a part of liberal education for centuries. The early scientists were considered to be philosophers and their societies were philosophical societies. In recent decades the human seeking of personal independence has led to chemistry becoming a part of everyday life to the point of actual dependence on chemistry. We live in a world of pesticides, fertilizers, plastics, "the Pill," food additives and processed foods, vitamin supple ments, 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.

TOPICS IN U.S. HISTORY: A HISTORY OF HIS 33 1 -A lnstructoc Chris Kimball The poet Walt Whitman once called baseball "America's game." In the century since Whitman uttered those words, baseball has occupied a prominent (and permanent) place in American life in some ways equivalent to business, politics, religion, and race. In this course, then, we will examine the relationship between the United States and its national pastime. Our focus will not be on the game between the lines, the great players and teams. Instead, we will take up several topics which can illuminate the historical evolution of this country. Some of these include: professionalization and its impact on amateur baseball, the role of ethnicity and ethnic rivalry, the color line, the emergence of the "big" leagues at the expense of the "minor" leagues, women's baseball, labor relations and the empowerment of the players, the impact of television, and the ballpark as an urban place. Special attention will be paid to baseball in the Twin Cities and students will be asked to do a short research paper on some aspect of baseball history in this region. Grading will be based on the research paper, class participation and a final exam.

How do we respond to theater? What is the nature of art? How are ideas conveyed in art forms? What do the visual arts, music, and theater have in common? How do they reflect the society in which they were created? Is art timebound or timeless? All art forms are linked to a particular time and place. We see that the visual arts, music, and theater always reflect the spiritual and intellectual climate of their time. Using examples of music, art, and theater created in Europe in the Baroque period, the course will explore how to appreciate and understand the various art forms, examine the relationships among the arts, and consider the expression of enduring themes and ideas at different points in time. Students will participate in the course through various readings, including reading plays, studying scores and listening to recordings, and reading primary source material comected to the art pieces considered. Using the resources of the College and the city, students will also attend a special performance of the Augsburg Faculty Artist Series, visit art collections, including the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, and attend music performances, including the Minnesota Orchestra, the Minnesota Opera, or the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra.

Is killing a terminally-ill person murder? Are there some crimes for which capital punishment is justified? Is there such a thing as a just war? These questions and the various answers proposed arouse deep emotions and often hostile confrontations among many groups in our society. All too often, complex moral issues get reduced down to simplistic slogans when these groups campaign to maintain or change laws on these issues. This course will utilize readings on these complex and burning moral issues as an introduction to ethics and critical moral thinking. We will consider some philosophical theories on the nature of moral obligation and personhood to help us get past emotions and slogans to a much deeper and informed understanding of the philosophical problems which lie behind the controversies surrounding abortion, euthanasia, capital punishment, and war. The course will combine lecture and class discussion on some contemporary philosophical readings on killing. Students' work will be evaluated on the basis of four (2 to 3) page papers (each on some aspect of one of the topics) and class participation.

"Making Light of Matter" will begin with an overview of optics needed for understanding imaging, beam control and dispersion, including the nature of light, reflection, refraction and interference. This sets the stage for treating the physics of superradiant devices and lasers, and the impact of cavity design on output characteristics. The course will conclude by applying these concepts to the study of atoms and simple molecules by the emission, absorption and scattering of light. Considerable emphasis will be placed on laboratory experiences; only onethird of the class period will be used for formal lectures and discussion, with the balance spent in the laboratory. Grades will be determined on the basis of weekly evaluation of laboratory notebooks, two onehour exams, and a formal research paper.

Three topics of major policy importance will be selected for examination in the way they are addressed by particular political practices and/or institutions. The class will evaluate the options available to policy-makers in light of the scholarly literature and other information available on each subject. It will then assess the interplay between these choices and their handling by the political system. Close attention will be given to an exploration of the ethical situation and dilemma of decision-making in politics. As part of the course, students will submit written analyses and evaluations of the success and/or failure of the policymaking process in addressing these problems. These, plus additional articles and portions of books from the social sciences, will serve as a basis for class discussion. The papers, a test on the assigned readings outlining the policymaking process in the United States, and class participation will determine final grades.

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 science and the Christian faith, emphasizing three periods: the origins of the Christian faith, the development of "modern" science and mechanistic philosophy, and the reevaluation of science and nature in the 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 synthe sis paper based on the group project and course materials.

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. The research- selected by the student in consultation with the thesis advisor - focuses on an area of social need, practice, service and/or policy. The thesis seminar is described in the Thesis Guidelines, which all students must review. The seminar provides a forum for students to develop their thesis plans, consult with each other and the faculty leader, present research methodology and identify how they will accomplish completion of the thesis.

The name Augsburg College and Seminary changed in 1963 when the Lutheran Free Church merged with The American Lutheran Church. Location Augsburg's 23-acre campus is in the heart of the Twin Cities metropolitan area, only blocks from downtown Minneapolis and the intersection of Interstate Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent to the campus are the Riverside Medical Center, the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota and the Mississippi River parkways. Campus Skyways, tunnels and elevators provide accessible connection between 10 of the 15 major buildings - student housing towers, College Center, main academic and administrative halls, the Library, Music Hall and Foss Center for Worship, Drama and Communication. Accessibility We have made a major effort to become one of the most accessible campuses in the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any of 10 major buildings without going outside. In addition to building changes, we have a student-run program to increase awareness and provide extra help for students with disabilities. Church Affiliation Augsburg is a college of The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. About 51 percent of the students are Lutheran, 15percent other Protestant and 15 percent Roman Catholic. Several other affiliations are represented among students and faculty. Non-Discrimination Policy Augsburg College does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, national or ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX of the 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended in its admission policies, educational programs, activities, and employment practices.

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. ... ..

' •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. ·~ .

Leaders, regardless of their field, are continually held accountable for decisions in settings characterized by incomplete information and limited time. The constrained nature of the typical decision making environment necessitates the use of a systematic and objective decision making process. 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. .... .. .. ..., . ... . . . .. .. ...: . . ..:. .. . . . . .. ... ... ·• . ·. •' ~ ~, .......

' -. :, ._%TERNATIONAL APPLICANTS ·~ .~ ~ Augsburg College Graduate Programs Office encourages qualified applicants from other countries and feels that they contribute significantly to the program. International applicants should keep in mind that classes meet on alternating Thursday evenings and Saturdays. Students can take only two classes plus a practicum per trimester for a yearly total of six classes and three practicums. With this schedule students can complete the required course work in two years. Please see the section under Admission Requirements for a general description of the admission process, selection criteria and work experience requirements. Application materials required for international applicants are: • Completed application form; • $25.00 application fee (nonrefundable) payable in U.S. dollars; • A brief ( 1-3 page) statement relating the applicant's career and life goals to his or her leadership aspirations; • Completed Declaration of Finances (see below for additional information); • Letter of recommendation in English from an immediate supervisor, assessing leadership potential; • Letter of recommendation in English from a co-worker (at the same level) describing the applicant's work style and potential as a leader; • Official marksheets with certified translations from all undergraduate institutions attended listing all courses taken, marks earned, dates attended, and any degree(s) conferred (diploma(s)); • Official marksheets with certified translations from all graduate institutions attended listing courses taken, marks earned, dates attended and degree(s) or diploma(s) conferred, if any; • Official results on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) with a minimum score of 550; and • Applicant may be asked to participate in an interview with graduate programs faculty and/or staff member, if applicant is in the United States. As a first step toward application, all international students must arrange for their own financial sponsorship, because limited financial aid from Augsburg College may or may not be available. Students and their sponsor must complete a Declaration of Finances as part of the application for admission, along with appropriate certifications. Students will need to provide proof of availability of funds for tuition, books and living costs. For the 1993-1994 academic year, we require students to provide proof of a minimum of $10,000 in U.S. funds for living expenses and the cost of tuition must be added to this amount. Students wishing to have spouses and/or children accompany them, must plan on having additional funds available for their support. . " ..... ,, . . ··.· ... ··.., . •; . : . ... .

Students may also be dismissed by the Master of Arts in Leadership Program Committee for behavior detrimental to the program, such as a gross violation of college policy (as published in the Student Guide). Dismissal would occur only after established procedures were followed. Credit for Prior Education, Training and Experience Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the courses in the Master of Arts in Leadership program, it is unlikely that courses taken elsewhere may be substituted for a particular course in the curriculum. Students may petition the Associate Dean of Graduate and Non-traditional Programs for approval of any variation in the curriculum including the transfer of credit. Transfer credits will be evaluated on an individual basis. The only courses that will be considered for transfer credit are those earned from accredited colleges and universities whose course content is comparable to those in the Master of Arts in Leadership program. No more than two courses will be accepted for transfer credit. • Credit and Contact Hours Each full credit graduate course in the Master of Arts in Leadership program is the equivalent of four semester credits or six quarter credits.

The College follows a 41-4 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-courseload during Fall and Spring semesters. Students can register for only one course credit during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who chooses not to enroll in an Interim course. Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale.Students generally have the option to register on a Pass/ No Credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on the PIN system; this is indicated in the course description. Some courses are offered with either upper or lower division standing. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and the student must select. Students registering for upper division standing should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading standard. To graduate, an Augsburg student is required to complete 35 courses of which at least three must be Interim courses. 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. 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 D( of the 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973,as amended, in its admissions policies, educa tional programs, activities and employment practices.

At the end of the book are listings of other courses not offered by Augsburg but recognized 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 interims offered by the Upper Midwest Association for InternationalEducation(UMAlE).Thesecourse opportunitiesare listed near the end of this catalog. Internships: Deadline: Friday, December 11.January Interim internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an internship must meet departmentalrequirements and present a signed internshiplearning agreement plan to the Internship Office (Murphy Place, Rrn. 8) no later than the last day of Fall classes (Friday, December 11).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.Studentschoosing 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 Introduction I direded/independent study registration form. These forms must be submitted by November 30. Appropriate study proposal and registration forms can be obtained in the Interim Office. Interims at Other Schools -Augsburg students may enroll at any other 4-1-4 institution which offers a reciprocal Interim arrangement. Catalogs of these Interims can be consulted in the Interim Office. The Interim Secretarywill 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 theInterim at other 4-1-4 schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but may not necessarily be accepted as meeting Augsburg's distribution requirements. This qualification particularly affects courses offered for the religion requirement. 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 $825 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 feeof $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.

Madmum Enrollment:25 lime: I1 Room: Llbrary 1 ENG 2 19-A Instructor: John Schrnlt Language plays an important role in our socialization and acculturation. The way we speak tells others who we are and tells us who others are. Our speech is a reflection of our social and economical standing and our cultural background. For this reason we should expect women to speakdifferently from men. And yet somehow we do not. We should expect anyone from a different background to have differences of language. Even more importantly, we must understand these differences in order to make sure that we understand speakers from different language communities. This course will examine the dialects of various Englishspeaking communities and attempt to describe and understand their rules of speech:their grammatical rules, phonological rules, and their rules of discourse. It will include lectures, student presentations, and student-led discussions. Besides presenting a topic, students will write a paper on the presentation topic and take a final exam.

These issues are vitalizing both contemporary drama and productions of classic texts. We will examine how dramatic works of the late '70s, the '80s, and the '90s, written in English, have been shaped by and have addressed issues ranging from racial tension to sexual preference. (We sometimes survey current drama on several such topics, like class, gender and language in 1989, and sometimes concentrate solely on plays about one issue, like homosexuality in 1990 and 1991.)For comparative purposes, we will also view a few films on related topics and try to attend at least two productions in the Twin Cities.There will be moderate fees for the local productions.

Through comparison and contrast, students will be expected to formulate reasonableinterpretationsof selected poets and poems and to express their discoveries in class discussion and short papers. A final examination will be given, and two interpretivepapers about three to five pages in length will be assigned.

Each role has related expectations for behavior, presents an opportunity for personal growth and also exerts pressure. When the roles are considered jointly, they may competefor time and energy and require conflicting types of behavior. The subject of this course is the interaction of the work and family roles of women. To investigate this topic, students will read several books related to women's roles in the work and family domains. The assessment of this component of the course is based on written responses to questions assigned for small group discussion. A second component of the course is a group project on the work and family roles of women. The assessment of this project is based on the group's presentation of their work to the class. Examples of past student projects include an historical overview of the work and family roles of women, an overview of the possible choices for the combination of the work and family roles over the life course, a summary of issues related to the work-role, a summary of issues related to the family-role, a survey of the work and family issues most important to women in different age brackets, and an indepth case study of the lives of three women.

"How can I stop feeling tense and inhibited when I perform?" "How can I reach my full potential as a singerlactor?" These are common questions voiced by performers. To answer these questions it is necessary to acknowledgethat performing is a holistic activity, involving mind, body, and spirit. Because all people possess a creative spirit which can directly empower their performing, this course focuses on exploring each participant's unique ability for selfsxpression. Through exercises, designed to acquaint them with their own performing power, students learn and practice the basic pro- cess of singing/ading, and apply it to the study and performance of scenes from opera and musical theatre. Students will participate in the course through study and re hearsal of the assigned literature, completion of reading and listening assignments, daily inclass experience of singinglacting exercises, and participation in a final paformance of all scenes.

We will try to decide what it is to be in love with someone, and how this differs from just being friends, liking that person, and desiring that person sexually. In the remainder of the course, we will consider the following ethical issues concerning sex: (a) Sex and morality -Is there such a thing as ethics for sex? Is there such a thing as sexual immorality? (b) Sex and marriage -Is the use of birth control moral? Is promiscuity bad? What strengths and weaknesses does the institution of monogamy have? Is adultery immoral? (c)The morality of alternative sexual preferences and lifestyles -Is sexual perversion a viable concept? Are homosexuality and lesbianism sexual perversions? Or are they merely alternative sexual preferences?

However, it is also possible to use spread sheets to solve physics problems without using "high-powered" mathematics. Spreadsheetsallow the student, who is not an expert in mathematics, to experience physics on a more intuitive level. We will use Cotus 1-2-3 to solve problems in a wide variety of physics areas including planetary and projettile motion. Some of the problems investigated might be in areasother than physics.

This is the realm of high vacuum, without which most of what we know as modern high technology would be impossible. This course will acquaint the student with the tools and techniques employed to produce, control and monitor high vacuum environments, and allow students to use these to study the behavior of gases and surfaces under these conditions. Experiments will exploit a variety of chambers, pumps and gauges as well as a quadruple mass spectrometer. Considerable emphasis will be placed on laboratory experiences;only one-third of the class period will be used for formal lectures and discussion.

Pankratova The former Soviet Union was, among other things, a huge experiment showing the possibilities and failuresof a totalitarian government to change at will people's traditions, values, and customs. Numerous peoples living in the territory of the former Soviet Union had differing beliefs and customs which influenced women's lives. In the early stages after the revolution, the Bolshevik authorities sought to destroy all the institutions supporting the old regime, including the family and religion. Accordingly, they encouraged women's independence and denied their family obligations. In a later stage, the policy was reversed and family values positively stressed. But, objective situations contradicted the policy in both cases. Students will be expected to read several books, plus some articles. There will be discussion and some written assignments.

Certainly leadership is characterized by more than knowing. It is also more than acting. It is ultimately defined in coalescing others to act when they otherwise might not have. Leadership, including teacher leadership, is ultimately proven in the efforts of others to attempt to scale heights of human achievement and plunge depths of human caring not otherwise envisioned." -Ken Howey Augsburg College 731 21st A venue South Minneapolis, MN 55454 612/330-1786 Table of Contents Introduction to the Master of Arts in Education-Leadership ... 4 Leadership Development Model ................................................. 5 Curriculum Design ....................................................................... 7 Course Descriptions ..................................................................... 9 Graduate Faculty ........................................................................ 11 Library ......................................................................................... 11 Accreditation and Affiliations ................................................... 11 Student Support Services ........................................................... 12 Student Rights ............................................................................. 12 Admission Requirements ........................................................... 13 Application Procedures .............................................................. 13 Evaluation Standards ................................................................. 14 Academic Policies ....................................................................... 15 Fee and Payment Information ................................................... 16 Financial Aid ............................................................................... 17 Campus Map ............................................................................... 20 Campus Location ........................................................................ 21 About Augsburg ......................................................................... 22 Faculty and Administration ....................................................... 23 Introduction to the Master of Arts in EducationLeadership Developing Leaders for Education The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership is a program for educators who value and enjoy their direct contact with students and want to retain that focus in their careers. It is a program that at the outset promotes the importance of teaching. It is also a program that values the roles educators can play as leaders in their places of work. People who become part of this Master of Arts program will have opportunities to: • Examine what '1eadership" is and who leads; • Explore who they are as leaders, both within an educational setting and outside of it; • Gain specific knowledge of education and leadership that can support their development; and • Develop skills that can increase the effectiveness of their leadership. This program values the role that good educators play in the lives of students and operates from the belief that educators need to exercise leadership within the workplace without relinquishing the role of teacher. Accommodating the Full-Time Work Schedule The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership program is designed to meet the needs and preferences of working adults. TI1e program is based on the assumption that the men and women who enroll are employed, self-disciplined and wellmotivated 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 The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership program promotes leadership as a process which 1) inspires cooperation among people who must compete for limited resources, 2) promotes productivity within and beyond the educational organization, and 3) works toward progress within the educational community. 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. Th ese abilities and awarenesses, outlined in the diagram on page 5, Leadership Development Model Leadership Sense of Vision Orientation Toward Action ~ / Ethical + Long-term perspective + Flexibility • Adaptability • Innovativeness I Risk Assumptive + Curiosity + Achievement motivation • Self-esteem / Cofflmunicative Creative + Social awareness + Environmental awareness + Tolerance of religious and philosophical differences + Appreciation of situational complexity Facility for Persuasion Effective listener Effective speaker Effective writer Diplomatic ability + Effective team member + Interpersonal sensitivity + + + + \ Decisive + Self-confidence • Analytical ability + Ability to think critically • Understanding of research • Ability to manage conflict ""' Culturally Aware + Appreciation for cultural differences • World-view perspective + Tolerance of individual differences serve as specific outcomes for the Master of Arts in EducationLeadership. Augsburg's model of leadership development is designed to assess, promote, enhance and refine these capabilities within the individual. Community of Learners Essential to the goals of the Master of Arts in EducationLeadership is participation in a community of learners. Leaming can be enhanced when the student is involved in a stable community that provides opportunity and encouragement for active participation both in and out of the classroom. This community will be enriched by the presence of men and women who bring to the program a variety of life and work experiences. -. ' ~· .. To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages graduate students to make use of college facilities such as the library, meeting rooms and the Christensen Center; to take the opportunity to share meals and coffee breaks; to participate in optional lunchtime seminars; and to attend other college activities such as music and dramatic presentations and athletic events. Leadership Practicum Master of Arts in Education-Leadership students enroll in a half course called "Leadership Practicum." Students are required to enroll in this professional assessment and development course for six terms during their graduate work at Augsburg. Upon completion of the entire practicum sequence, students receive a half-course credit. Early in the program, a major component of the practicum is a full day assessment to determine students' abilities and potential relative to each of the outcomes of the Leadership Development Model. Assessment instruments include paper and p_encil 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 focused on dimensions of leadership. In subsequent terms, "Leadership Practicum" includes workshops designed to meet the needs of students in the following areas: communication skills, self-assessment measures, group processes and other professional development topics as identified and designed by participants. Also included is the opportunity for participants to develop and monitor a leadership project within their workplace. Curriculum Design The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership is composed of ten course credits composed of eight full credit and four half credit courses. Each course uses a variety of learning techniques appropriate to adult learners including case study, debate, written and oral seminar presentations and small group activity. These courses develop targeted leadership abilities and understandings as a boundary crossing endeavor in need of the leadership skills and visions of people from all levels of an organization. The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership will provide opportunities for students to: • • • • • • Reflect • • • • Assess • • Exercise • • Integrate • • Study conceptual frameworks of leadership issues of leadership history of education current issues in education conceptual models of teaching and learning on the various natures of leadership on themselves as leaders options and opportunities for leadership in education on ethics and values in leadership themselves as leaders situations in which they lead programs, projects and ideas creative leadership both individual and collective a variety of thought processes viewpoints on leadership with personal experiences viewpoints on education from a variety of disciplines Core Courses (4 course credits) The following core courses are required of all students in the Master of Arts in Education-Leadership program: EDU 500 Assessment and Leadership (.5 credit course) EDU 513 Diversity and Education OR ML 560 Developing a Multi-Cultural Perspective EDU 514 Evaluation and Documentation OR ML 514 Research Methods EDU 593 Thesis-Research Seminar I (.5 credit course)* EDU 594 Thesis-Research Seminar II (.5 credit course)* EDU 592 Thesis Consultation (.5 credit course) Elective Courses (4-6 course credits) The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership program requires, at a minimum, that four of the six required elective courses be selected from the following list: EDU EDU EDU EDU 510 511 512 515 Ethics and Leadership Legacy of Education Models of Teaching and Leaming Creativity and Problem Framing OR ML 511 Creativity and the Problem-Solving Process EDU 516 Models of Educational Process EDU 517 Politics and Public Policy of School Offerings EDU 599 Special Topics (.5or1 credit course) Master of Arts in Leadership Elective Courses (0-2 course credits) The Master of Arts in Education-Leadership program will allow up to two electives from the Master of Arts in Leadership program to be selected from the following list: ML 510 ML 520 ML 521 ML 530 ML 531 ML 540 ML 545 Foundations of Leadership Self-Identity, Values, and Personal Growth Methods of Critical Thought Ethics in Communication The Dynamics of Change Politics, History, and Leadership Decision Making I: Qualitative Process and Applica tion ML 550 Decision Making and Technology ML 599 Special Topics Please see the Master of Arts -in Leadership program bulletin for detailed descriptions of these courses. *EDU 590 and EDU 591 are now known as EDU 593 and EDU 594, respectively.

Only the credits and grades earned the second time are counted in the grade point average. Attendance Policy Because leadership issues are presented, discussed and analyzed in the classroom, regular attendance is highly important and should be considered a responsibility, not only to one's self, but to one's classmates and course instructor. Irregular attendance may, at the discretion of the instructor, adversely affect one's grade. Academic Policies Academic Probation and Dismissal Policies Students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average.

Students may also be dismissed by the Master of Arts in EducationLeadership Program Committee for behavior detrimental to the program, such as a gross violation of college policy (as published in the Student Guide). Dismissal would occur only after established procedures were followed. Credit for Prior Education Transfer credits will be evaluated on an individual basis.

Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September, 1869, in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872.The first college students were enrolled in 1874 and the first graduation was in 1879. 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 "college1' 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. Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist" college, Georg Sverdrup, Augsburg's second president (18761907), 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 independentcongregations 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. This attitude began to change after World War I. In 1911, George Sverdrup, Jr. became President He worked to develop college departmentswith an appeal to a broader range of students than just those intending to be ministers. Augsburg admitted women in 1922under 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 Quistensen, an erudite and scholarly teacher, to be pmident (1938-1%2).His involvement in ecumenical and civic circles made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city life. After World War JI, 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. Augsburg added departmentsessential to a liberal arts college, offering a modern college program based on general education requirements and elective majors. With curriculum change came a long effortto 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 definedthe College's mission now as serving the good society as a whole first and the interests of the Lutheran Fnx Church second. The Seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther Northwestern Seminary)in St. Paul in 1963. President Oscar A. Anderson (19&1980) continued Augsburg'semphasis on involvement with the city. He wanted to reach out b non-traditional student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all people. During his years of leadership the College became a vital and integral part of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg added the Music Hall, Mortensen Tower, Urness Tower, the College Center, Ice Arena and 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 Weekend College and three Master of Arts degree programs, hosting national and international figures at College-sponsoredforums and events, increased accessibility and the addition of the Foss Center for Worship, Drama and Communication. 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 metre politan center. There are now more than lO,W Augsburg alumni. In a world that has changed much since those first days of the College, Augsburg still sends out graduates who make a differencewhere they live and work. Augsburg's campus is located in the heart of the Twin Cities, surrounding Murphy Square, the first of 155parks in Minneapolis, the "City of Lakes."

Augsburg College, through its Office of Student Financial Services, will help students and their families with both monetary and advisory assistanceto protect access to a quality education in spite of i n m i n g costs. Financial assistance awarded through Augsburg is a combination of scholarships,grants, loans and part-time work opportunities.

EXPERIENTIAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS Internships, Cooperative Education and Service-Learning Through Internships, Cooperative Education and Community Service, Augsburg students integrate and expand their liberal artseducation by embracing the worlds of work and service. Each work or community service placement is closely related to a student's major, course work or career interest. Augsburg's Internship, Cooperative Education and Community Service programs link employers, community organizationsand the academic program in a way that enriches and expands a student's educational experience and personal development. An underlying assumption is that a liberal arts education is an effective preparation for careers and citizenship. The integration of "knowingand doing" adds breadth and depth to the liberal artscurriculum and assists students in making more informed academic, career and personal decisions. The College's metropolitan location makes possible a wide range of opportunities. Students have gained valuable learning experiencesin small and midsize companies, large corporations, non-profit organizations, schools, government agencies and community-based organizations. Academic Internships An academic internship is a carefully planned work-based learning experience where a student focuses on specific academic and individual learning objectives. A learning agreement plan, negotiated with a faculty supervisor and work supervisor, outlining the internship objectives, strategies and evaluation methods is required. An academic internship is approved, supervised and evaluated by a faculty member in the department in which the student wishes to earn the Internship credit. Upper Division Internships are numbered 399 and Lower Division Internships are numbered 199. Registration for Internshipsconsists of the following steps: 1. Obtain the Internship registration permission form from the Internship and Cooperative Education Office and secure the signaturesof the faculty supervisor and Director of Internshipsand Cooperative Education. 2. Register for a 199 or 399 Internship during the registration period. The signed permission form must be tumed in at the time of registration. (Students may preregister without a placement seared, but a suitable internship must be found by the end of the registration or drop/add period.) 3. A learning agreement (forms are available from the Internship and Cooperative Education office) must be negotiated with the faculty member responsible for grading the experience and the work supervisor. The completed original is turned in to the Internship and Cooperative Education Office. Internships are available in all majors and can be taken during a semester (or Weekend College trimester),interim or summer session. For extension of an internship beyond one term see the section of the catalog under grading. A maximum of four courses of Internship may count toward the 35 courses required for the degree. Cooperative Education CooperativeEducation is a college supported and monitored, paid, worklearning experience that is closely related to a student's major or career objective. The goal is to combine theory with practice. Students also earn money to help defray educational costs while gaining important on-the-job experience.Job placements typically are part-time during the academic year and/or full-time summer. Co-op jobs are flexible and can begn and end anytime. Co-op Ed is not aedited in and of itself,but a nonaedit CooperativeEducation transcript entry is available during the academic terms the student is employed. Co-op Ed students are encouraged to complete at least one Internship for credit in conjunction with their Cooperative Education participation. Co-op Ed is available to Augsburg students who have completed their freshman year and are in good academic standing. Service-Learning Augsburg's ServiceL.eaming program combines response to human needs in the community with a conscious awareness and understandingof issues, reflection and educationalgrowth. Augsburg students learn from and about the community and society in which they live by participating in orientation sessions, direct servicelearningactivities and seminarsor class discussions. Through direct service, such as volunteering at a homeless shelter, tutoring building housing for low income people or working with environmental groups, students engage in a dynamic and interactive educational approach which employs reciprocal learning between the student(s1and the community. The Service-I-eamhg Program works with community organizations and organizes @c projects to enhance student involvement and also assists with and supports the integration of service-learninginto departmental courses. The program works closely with the student directed Augsburg LINK program and campus ministry. Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative for adult students who work or have other commitments during the week. It is a means by which men and women may earn a college degree, complete a second mapr or pursue a personal interest or skill. Weekend College classes meet on alternate weekends. There are three trimester terms during the early September through June academic year. Students may take from one to four classes each term. Although the Augsburg Weekend College program involves the same courses as the day school program, the cumculum is limited to selected liberal arts courses and the followingmajors: Business Administration (specializationsin accounting, finance, international business, management, and marketing), Communication (concentrationsin human relations, marketing communications, public relations/advertising, and supervisory management), Computer Science, Economics, Elementary and Secondary Education, English, Management Information Systems, Nursing, Psychology, Religion and Social Work. Augsburg College offers three graduate degree programs: the Master of Arts in Leadership, the Master of Arts in Education-Leadership and the Master of Social Work Designed for working adults, the Augsburg Graduate Program operates on alternate Saturdays and alternate Thursday evenings. There are thnx trimester terms during the early September through June academic year. The Master of Arts in Leadership program is based on the subject matter and approaches of the traditional liberal arts.This cross-disciplinary program directs its acadanic content and pedagogical approaches at situations, issues and problems relevant to orpnimtional leaders. AugsbUrg's program recognizes that today's leaders need broad-spectrum abilities to provide them with a more comprehensive understandingof their world. The Master of Arts in Education-Leadershipprogram values the role that good educators play in the lives of students, and operates from the belief that educators need to exercise leadership within the workplace without relinquishingthe role of teacher. The program promotes leadership as a process, promotes productivity within and beyond the organization and works toward progress. The Master of Social Work at Augsburg offerstwo concentrations:Family Practice and Program Development, Policy and Administration. In the Family Practice concentration, students concentrate on empowering the family nurturing systems from a developmental and holistic perspective. The Program Development, Policy and Administration concentration has been developed in response to the growing demand for creative leadership and administration of policies and servicesthat respond to human need. Both concentrations are founded on the asumptions that analysis of complex social issues and solutionsmust be based on solid research, and that the world is interdependent in all areas, includinghuman needs and the services to address them. These programs bring working adults to the campus. They are complemented by the College's Cooperative Education Program (begun in 1984) that places Augsburg students into paid work experiences. OrFmPRContinuing Education Program Augsburg College offers selected courses through ContinuingEducation. Inquiries should be addressed to the Office of the Associate Dean for Graduate and Special Programs. Canadian Program The Canadian Program was inaugurated in 1985 with an endowment from the Mildred Joel Bequest for Canadian Studies. The program supports s p e d events and conferences as well as student internships and faculty activity in Canadian studies. The goals of the program include community involvement, increased awarenessof the importance of Canadian/U.S. relations, and provision of opportunities to learn directly from Canadians through visits and exchanges. Milda K. Hedblom, Canadian Program Coordinator Center for Global Education The Center for Global Education, founded at Augsburg in 1985 facilitates crosscultural learning experiences which prepare people to think more critically about global issues and to work toward a more just and sustainable world. The Center's programs explore a diversity of viewpoints and are grounded in the perspectives of the poor and of others struggling for justice and human dignity. Students can participate in semester abroad programs, as well as Weekend College and Graduate Program courses offered at the Center's program sites in Latin America, the Middle East, Southern Africa, and the Asia/Pacific region. A student must be registered for a course to receive credit for it. Full-time students normally register for four courses per semester and one course in the Interim. Students registered for three or more courses in a semester are classified as full-time students. To register for more than 4 5 courses, students must contact the Registrar's office to petition the Committee on Student Standing for permission. Although a student may register up to five days after the semester b e p s , registration is encouraged at the regularly scheduled time. Special fees are charged for late registration. Special fees also are charged for cancellingor adding courses or changing grading option after the first five days of a semester. A joint class schedule is published each Spring by the Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities, listing courses and their location at the five colleges for the followingsemesters. As some courses are offeredonly in alternate years, students should also consult with Departmental advisers when planning their class registrations. Separate catalogs of courses are published by the Interim Office, Summer School Office,Weekend College Office and Graduate Program Office for those sessions at Augsburg, listing registration times and procedures.

Rationale for the Augsburg General Education Curriculum: The Augsburg faculty has designed a cohesive academic program incorporating general education, major courses, supportingcourses and elective courses leading to the bachelor's degree. The core of the Augsburg curriculum is found in the liberal artsas expressed in the General Education component of the college curriculum. Augsburg, in its Mission Statement, declares the College exists '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." One way which the College seeks consciously to realize this Mission is through its General Education curriculum, which Augsburg has divided under two headings: liberal artsperspectives and skills. The term "perspective" assumes that not only are we engaged in the search for truth, but that this requires the searcher to consider questions from a variety of viewpoints, each of which has something valuable to contribute to the whole. These perspectives are not strictly identified with traditional disciplines, but are understood in ways which encourage multi-disciphq reflections on the questions at issue. They combine concerns about content with those of process and approach, directed ultimately to making the student a more effective learner and participant in society. The following requirements reflect the way in which Augsburg has chosen to view the liberal arts. Two of the four features of the Mission Statement are embodied in the General Education Perspectives: 'The Character and Mission of Augsburg College: The Christian Faith and the City." These Perspectives emphasize that the College's affiliationwith the Lutheran Church,its insistence on the value of howing the approach which derives from the Christian roots of the College and its location in the city, deserve s p e d considerationin Augsburg's educational program. The third feature-that Augsburg is a liberal arts institution -is also emphasized in the other Liberal Arts Perspectives. Certain dimensions of human life -of what it is to be human -form the core of the required liberal arts experience. These overall perspectives on what it is to be human can themselves be studied from the vantage points of the various academic disciplines. Students need to learn about themselves, about what it is to be a person. Hence, the Perspective on Human Identity. But the person exists in both a social community and a natural world. Hence, the importance of the Perspectives on the Social World and the Natural World. Because the way in which we understand ourselves derives largely from our Western heritage, students need to learn about and reflect on sigruficant aspects of this heritage. Thus, the Perspective on the Western Heritage. At the same time, to focus on the West,alone would be ethnocentric:We live in a global society. Hence the Perspective on Inter-CulturalAwareness. Attention to moral values is found not only in the Perspective on the Character and Mission of the College: the Christian Faith, but throughout the other perspectives as well. The Perspective on Aesthetic Values enables students to foms upon aesthetic works created by themselves or others, which convey fundamentalinsights, express beauty and enhance life. Finally, the Mission Statement emphasizes that we are concerned with academic excellence. This has a number of features, including the way we teach all the courses in General Education. Beyond this, academic excellence presupposes that students have the requisite skills to do college-level work. The General Education Requirements are couched in a context which pays attention to the skills of both incoming and graduating students. Entry-level skill requirements in a number of critical areas, including reading, writing, quantitative reasoning and critical thinking, will be assessed and help given to students who need it. Graduation-level skills are also emphasized, so that students not only maintain but develop their skills during their Augsburg experience. The General Education Requirements provide a coherent way to address the Mission of Augsburg College. They are not the only way, neither do they guarantee that students who graduate from Augsburg possess the desired knowledge and character traits. What they do is provide a coherent description of the context in which we liberally educate students, a clear statement of expected outcomes and an opportunity for students to see and understand the complexity of what it is to be human and Christian in an urban setting. Entry Level Skills Requirements The entry level skills tests are inventory assessments in: reading writing word processing critical thinking quantitative reasoning (along with Math Placement) Placement in writing courses and math courses is determined by these inventories. Freshmen (all students entering Augsburg with fewer than seven college credit courses) and Sophomore (entering 1992-'93 or after) Transfer Students: Take entry level skills tests and satisfy requirements. If skill levels are deficient, students will be enrolled in the appropriate course or advised on preparation for retaking the respective tests. Students are q i i r e d to take the assessments before registering for the second term and to have demonstrated removal of deficiencies by the end of their first year at Augsburg. Effective Writing or its equivalent is required. Students who do not satisfy the entry level skill in writing will be required to take Developmental Writing before Effective Writing. Freshmen must complete the writing requirement before the begnmng of their Sophomoreyear. Students who pass the writing assessment inventory at the advanced levels (to be determined by the English Department)will not be required to take Effective Writing. Those with demonstrated word processing skills; e.g. recent verifiable work experience, are exempt from the word processing inventory. Students who have college credit for a critical thinking or logic course are exempt from the critical thinking inventory. Students with an acceptable transfer mathematics course are exempt from the quantitative reasoning inventory, and will be given information about taking the Math Placement Test based upon previous mathematics courses. Freshman and Sophomore (entering 1992-'93 or after) transfer students will be required to satisfy all the graduation skill course requirements. Junior and Senior Transfer Students Entering Junior and Senior transfer students (entering 1993294 or after) are I exempt from word processing, reading and critical thinking assessments. Those who have not taken an Effective Writing course or a college level mathematics course must take entry level tests in writing and/or quantitative reasoning. If they do not achieve exemption from those mpirements, they must satisfy the requirement in those areas. Those who have a transfer mathematics course accepted for college credit by Augsburg College are exempt from the quantitative reasoning inventory and will be given information about taking the Math Placement test based upon previous college mathematics courses. Junior and Senior transfers (entering 1994'95 or after) are required to satisfy all the graduation skill course requirements, except that only one writing component course is required. 1 Graduation Level Skills General Education includes enhancement of certain skills during the years in college. Skills related to writing, critical thinking spealung and quantitative reasoning are deliberatecomponents of certain courses. Completion of the requisite courses with a minimum grade of 2.0 or P is required for graduation. Students are required to have two courses with writing components and one course each with critical thinking, speaking and quantitative reasoning components. These courses can simultaneously satisfy skill requirements and graduation requirements for the major or general education perspectives. 1 Lifetime Spohs Demonstrated proficiency in two different Lifetime Sports is required. Lifetime sports are no-credit courses and are not included in the 35course requirement. The General Education Liberal Arts Perspectives have the primary goal of providing the basis for begmmng to understand what it means to be a human being at this time. The goals of the Perspectives are achieved through a variety of courses which have been approved as meeting the criteria established for each Perspechve. Although courses approved for each Perspective meet the General Education requirements, not every course meets all the goals of each Perspective. Students will choose from a list of courses meeting the Liberal Arts Perspectives, available from the Office of the Registrar. These choices are controlled by the following policies: A student will choose one course from each category. No single course can fulfill the requirementsin two or more categories. No student will be permitted to count more than three courses from the same department in meeting perspective requirements. No student may count more than one course from the same department in meeting the requirements of any single perspective except: 1.Up to three courses in religion may be used to meet the perspective, "The Character and Mission of Augsburg College: The Christian Faith." 2. Up to two courses in a year-long sequence (biology, chemistry or physics) may be used to meet the perspective, "The Natural World." 3. Up to two courses of the same foreign language may be used to meet part of the perspective, "Intercultural Awareness." Perspective: The Character and Mission of Augsburg College: The Christian Faith This Perspective focuses on Augsburg as a College of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. As a college of the Church, Augsburg accepts as a basis for its educationalprogram the doctrines of the Christian faith as ~vealedin Scriptureand the creeds affirmed by the Lutheran Church. It consciously affirms that all students should reflect upon the Christian Scrip tures, theological concepts, ethical values, their own faith and values and dgious concepts outside of the Christian faith as part of becoming educated. From this Perspective, students should gain an understandingof and critically reflect on: 1.The Bible ( for example, its origins, structures, content or interpretation). 2. Christian theological and religious concepts and their own religious beliefs. 3. Religious concepts and practices found in religious traditions outside the Christian faith. 4. Their own and others' values, their relation to Christian values, the possible grounds for these values, how these values might be critiqued and defended and the role values play in the issues that confront our society. Three courses are required to meet this Perspective except for the following 1. Junior transfer students will be required to take two courses in the Christian Faith Perspective while registered at Augsburg; and 2. Senior transfer students will be required to take one course in the Christian Faith Perspective while registered at Augsburg. Perspective: The Character and Mission of Augsburg College: The City This Perspective focuses on the College's location in the heart of a metropolitan area. From this Perspective, students should gain an understandingof and critically reflect upon the city with its diverse populations, cultural, governmental and economic institutions, and opportunities and challenges.In addition, students should experience the community and should explore opportunities for service in the community. This requirement must be covered either by specific courses, by internship and cooperative education experiencesor by designated or college a p proved noncredit experiences (such as volunteer service or college pmgrams). Experiences that satisfy the requirement must be accompanied by seminars related to the experience. One course is required to meet this Perspective. Perspective: Western Heritage This Perspective is intended to help students critically examine themes (found, for example, in literature, philosophy and the arts) and events that have historically shaped Western civilization Attention should be paid to the contributions to or critiques of Western thought by women and ethnic minorities. From this Perspective, students should gain an understandingof and critically reflect on: 1. Central ideas, texts or works of art that historically have been sighcant for Western society and the relation of these to present world views. 2. S p d c historical themes, trends, events and persons and their roles in shaping both the past and the present. 3. Historical and literary methods of ascertaining and conveyingthe past. Two courses are required to meet this Perspective. Perspective: Human Identity This Perspective is intended to help students view themselves as persons, men and women with unique abilities, values, beliefs, experiencesand behaviors. From this Perspective, students should gain an understandingof and critically reflect on: 1.Methods and approachesthat attempt to explain how individual persons think,feel and ad. 2. Scientific or humanistic interp~tationsof their own development as persons. 3. Questions of faith, ethics and moral choice in their personal and professional lives. 4. Fadors involved in physical and mental health. One course is required to meet this Perspective. Perspective: Aesthetics Aesthetic creationsconvey fundamental insights and values, expressbeauty and enhance life. This Perspective focuses on aesthetic qualities in artistic expressions by oneself and others. From this Perspective, students should gain an understandingof and critically reflect on: 1.Forms of artistic expression. 2. Historical development and variation in aesthetic taste and performance across cultures and how different cultures have expressed themselves through various aesthetic forms. 3. Different theories of aesthetics. 4. Their own creation or performance of a work of art. One course is required to meet this Perspective. Perspective: The Social World This Perspective is intended to help students learn to identdy, examine and critique &, economic or political systems:to understand how and why such systems develop, to see the connectionsamong these systems and to use this knowledge as a participant in society. I From this Perspective, students should gain an understanding of and critically reflect on: 1.The characteristicsand dynamics of human organization at the group and societal level. 2. Current theories and methods for understanding social, political or economic systems. 3. The historical development of selected social, economic or political structures. 4. The relationship between various social, political, or economic systems and the student's own responsibilities in society. 5. The ways that social, economic or political structures differ across cultures and affect diverse groups in society. Two courses are required for this Perspective. Perspective: lntercultural Awareness This Perspective is intended to complement the Western Heritage Perspective by expanding students' awareness of other cultures. One course is required in which students critically reflect upon ways their own cultural biases operate when confronting other cultures. They should become better able to communicate with persons of other cultural backgrounds partially by being introduced to a specific culture other than European or mainstreamNorth American cultures. In addition, students are to gain entry into another culture by learning to speak and read a language other than their native language. For this part of the Perspective, studentsare required to have demonstrated proficiency in a foreign language. The foreign language requirement will be based upon placement: Foreign Language Placement Course Requirement 111,112 112 211 212 No course required Students who are m p r e d to complete two semestersof foreign language must complete the requirement with sequential courses in the same language. Perspective: The Natural World This Perspective is intended to help students understand themselves in relation to the physical world. Their active role as observers, explorers, and moral agents will be emphasized. Sufficient technical training in scientific knowledge, concepts and methods will be provided to equip students for critical and intelligent participation in public debates on technical issues. From this Perspective, students should gain an understandingof and critically reflect on: 1.Selected aspects of the natural world. 2. The characteristics, strengthsand limitations of science and the scientific method, and the complex relations between data and theories, at least in part through practical laboratory experience. 3. The history of science, its relations to other historical/social develop ments and the variety of ways persons and civilizationshave approached the natural world. 4. The relations and differencesbetween science and theology; the mutual influences of technology, values, and the natural/physical environment; the limits imposed on humans by the natural environment, and the interconnectedness of all living systems. 5. The importance of symbol systems such as mathematics in attempting to describe, classify, and model objects and events. Two courses are required to meet this Perspective. 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 chose the P/N option are cautioned: In order to receive a grade of P, a student must achieve at least a grade of 2.0 Some graduate and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of P-graded courses, or rank each as a "C". For transfer students, P-graded courses do not count in the requirement that 14traditionally graded courses be earned at Augsburg in order to be considered for graduation with distinction. See P/N limitationsunder Graduation Requirements. Certain courses are offered on one grading system only. Sociology 265 and several Interim courses are graded only on the P/N grading system. Some education courses are graded only on the P/N system or only on the traditional system. English 111is graded P or N, or 2.0-4.O/N. Some other courses are graded only PI 1.0 or N. Chemistry Seminar and Lifetime Sports are graded P/N. In courses where there is a choice, students will be graded on the traditional system unless they indicate on their registration that they wish to use the P/ N grading option. Any changes in choice of grading system must be made according to dates published each term. A fee is charged for any changes after the first five days of classes. Explanation of Grades Number grades are used with these definitions: 4.0 3.5 3.0 2.5 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 0.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence Achieves above basic course standards Meets basic standards for the course Performancebelow basic course standards Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course) Grades of P 8ass) or N (No credit) are not computed in the grade point average. A grade of P represents work at or above the 2.0 level; N represents work at the 1.5 or below level. An incomplete grade may be given only in the case of extreme emergency. To receive an incomplete grade, a student must receive permission of the instructor of the course; must file a form stating the reasons for the request, the work q u i d to complete the course, the plan and date for completing the work, and comments from the instructor; and must gain the approval of the R e t r a r . Ifpermission 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 semester. 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. The Registrar's Office will automatically continue the registration in response to an X grade. A final grade will be issued at the end of the term in which the work is completed and evaluated (but not longer than one year). An instructor reserves the discretion of not giving an X where satisfactoryprogress is not demonstrated. Withdrawal from college or dropping these continued courses will terminate their registration Under this circumstance, a re-registration as 1X by the student would be necessary if done during registration periods within one year of initial registration; if done after one year, a new registration would be necessary. A course in which a grade of 0,05,1.0,15, N, I or X 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. A course is given a grade of W when it is dropped after the deadline for dropping classes without a notation on the record. Auditing Courses Students who wish to take courses without credit or grade may do so by registering for Audit (V).Full-time students may audit a course without charge. The charge for part-time students is listed under College Costs. Students who audit a course should confer with the instructor within two weeks of the beguuung of the term to determine expectations, attendance and any other requirement. If expestations have been met, the course will be listed on the tramaipt as having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the course will be listed with a grade of W (Withdrawn). Grade Point Average The grade point average (GPA) is based on final grades for all work at Augsburg. It does not include credit and grade points for work transferred from other colleges. Courses taken on the P/N grading option are recorded, but not computed in the GPA. The formula for computing the GPA is: GPA = Total a a d e mints - 2 (P or TransferCourses) Courses taken - 8 or Transfer Courses) Classification Students are classified in August and at the end of the Fall and Interim terms. Sophomores-Seven courses completed with at least 14 grade points. Juniors-16 courses completed with at least 32 grade points. Seniors-25 courses completed with at least 50 grade points. Advanced Placement Program Test Advanced placement in courses beyond the begnning level is granted to students with scores of 3,4, and 5 on the CEEB Advanced Placement Program Test Additional credit or placement is at the discretion of the department. Inquiries should be addressed to the Office of the Registrar. International Baccalaureate Program Coursesearned from the International BaccalaureateProgram will be considered by the College for advanced placement and appropriate d Departmental guidelines are available from the Office of the Regstrar. t 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 APL program (Assessment of Previous Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous learning other than that which is transferred from another accredited institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward the completion of a 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 coursework in a field of study within the Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and 2) it can be objectively demonstrated either by comprehensive examination or committee evaluation. The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which students may have their previous learning assessed for credit recognition. 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 e&nination 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 s u b j j area in question. There is a faculty member designated by the department to administer the exam. The Student StandingCommittee approves the student's request to take the exam. Credit for departmental exams is available on a pass/no credit basis only, and there is a charge per exam. 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 the Registrar and two faculty members from fields of study diredly 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 followingcriteria: There is documentable evidence of a cognitive component in the previous learning experiencethat involved prescribed and/or systematic study of content material found within liberal arts coursework. 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. Transaipt 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 courses applied to graduation. These credits will be recorded with the course number of CAP 2xx. Application of this credit toward distribution requirements I 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, thii learning must be placed in the context of formal study in campus-based liberal arts courses. Therefore, Augsburg places a maximum of nine courses (onefourth of a baccalaureate degree) on transcript credit that is obtained through previous experiential learning. In compiling the nine 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. English as a Second Language (ESL) Program Students who declare a language other than English to be their primary language, or who are citizens of another country, must take the ESL placement test in conjunction with the English writing placement test at orientation. Students' placement in ESL, Developmental Writing or Effective Writing will be detenriined by their scores on the Michigan test (8@90 range for exemption from ESL) and by a writing sample. Near the end of each term of the English as a Second Language course, an objective test will be administered to all students in the class. The score on this test and the grade earned in the class will determine whether additional ESL course work is required. Usually a score of 80 to 90 and a course grade of 35 or 4.0 will fulfill the student's ESL requirement. If students do not meet the ESL requirement, they will remain in ENG 217/ 218 until they meet the criteria stated above. Academic credit will normally be granted for no more than two courses. Students who fulfill the ESL requirement, by examination or by course completion, have completed the foreign language requirement for graduation. Academic Progress, Probation and Dismissal The College requires that students maintain the following cumulative grade point averages (GPA): Freshman -A student who has taken fewer than seven courses with a cumulative GPA of 1.6 or higher Sophomore-A student who has taken fewer than 16courses with a cumulative GPA of 1.7 or higher Junior-A student who has taken fewer than 25 courses with a cumulative GPA of 1.9 or higher Senior -A student who has taken 25 or more courses with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher. It should be noted that a minimum GPA of 2.0 is q u i r e d for graduation with certain majors requiring a higher minimum GPA. Students whose academic achievement falls below these guidelineswill either be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term, or 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, d i s missal fromthe College is not automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on Student Standing. Evidence of the studenfs commitment to academic progress is the major considerationin deciding whether or not to dismiss a student. Studentswho have a poor academic record may be strongly advised to withdraw beforethe end of a term. 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 levels stated above. Studentsplaced 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 classificationchanges 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 semester, listing students whose grade point average for a semester is 3.5 or better, based on a minimum of three full courses, or equivalent, for a weekday schedule student or two full courses, or equivalent, for a Weekend College student, graded on the traditional grading system, with no incompletes in courses offered for credit. If permission is given, an announcement is sent to the hometown newspaper of each student on the Dean's List. / Graduation with Distinction Graduation with distinctionis determined as follows: Summa cum laude -3 8 to 4.0 cumulative GPA M a p cum laude -3.6 up to but not including 38 cumulativeGPA Cum laude -3 3 up to but not including 3.6 cumulativeGPA To quahfy for graduation with distinction, transfer students must have completed two years (14 traditionally graded courses) of work at Augsburg. Veterans of Military Service Augsburg is appmveci by the State Approving Agency for Veterans Education. Veterans should consult with the Office of the Registrar about completion of the enrollment certificate and the forwarding of other information to the Veterans Administration. Augsburg's standards of academic progress are given in this Catalog.When a veteran or eligible person fails to maintain these p&bed standards of progress, the College will so inform the Veterans Administration. It is the responsibility of each veteran to report any change in registration and/or academic load to the Office of the Registrar, as it is for all students. If less than full-time, veterans will be referred to the State Approving Agency after any period of two consecutive terms if they did not earn the equivalent for which they had been certified. A non-punitive grade which brings a veteran's academic load for the term below three courses will be reported to the Veterans Administration. Veterans will need to meet the requirementsof the Veterans Administration regarding repayment of educational assistance funds received. m DEPARTMENTS AND PROGRAMS Aands atruth liberal a* institution, College beliews thnt knaoledge are infmrehtai and are infiegrakd infoa whole.

Department entries also contain a narrative discussion of the educational philosophy of each department, its gmls and its place in the College's program. A listing of requirementsfm individual majors and minms follows the narrative. Class Schedule Courses listed are subject to change. In general, classes are offered Fall and/ or Spring terms. The ACTC Schedule of Classes published each spring lists offerings and locations for Fall and Spring terms. Since some courses are offered in alternate years, it is important that the student review major requirementsand course offeringswith an adviser to ensure that all requirements can be met. Descriptions and schedulesfor courses offered in January Interim, Summer School, Augsburg Weekend College and the Master of Arts in Leadership, Master of Arts in Leadership-Educationand the Master of Social Work programs are published in separate catalogs. Credits A full course is offeredfor one credit A few fractional courses, for one-half or onequarter credit, are offered in the Division of Professional Studies. A full course has the approximate value of four semester credits or six quarter hours. Most courses meet for three 6Gminute periods or two 90-minute periods a week, in addition to laboratories. Numbering Coursesnumbered below 300 are Lower Division courses. Courses numbered 300 and above are classified as Upper Division. In general, courses in the 100s are primarily for freshmen, 200s for sophomores, 300s for juniors, and 400sfor seniors. Prerequisites Courses that must be taken before enrolling in a higher level course are listed in the course description.A student ky enroll in a course when a prerequisite has not beenfulfilled if there is prior approvalby the professor teaching the course and of the academic adviser. Augsburg College offers a minor in American Indian Studies. See listing under InterdisciplinaryStudies (INS). Am DETT~~ENT (ART) Art is important as a field of study for our modem age. Our suryival as a culture may very well depend on whether we are able to create order and beauty in the design and function of communities. Realizing this,we have made design and sensitivity to all aspects of visual experience central to the art program at Augsburg. Giving and receiving visual messages is so much a part of everyday life that it is often taken for granted. At the same time, however, the interchange of visual ideas is frequently misunderstood. The task of the artist, art teacher and art historian is to celebrate visual experiencethrough a variety of media and art examples. In short, the visual arts teach us how to see. Because of the College's commitment to the liberal arts,the visual arts,as taught at Augsburg, draw ideas and inspiration from all disciplines. Art as a human activity does involve manual skill, although to become broadly significant it should interact with the content available in other fields, such as language,history, drama, music, literature, philosophy, theology, business, physical education and science. A liberal arts college like Augsburg is an ideal setting for the study of art because it provides a constant possibility for the interaction of ideas, I lI I I disciplines and attitudes. At Augsburg art study is further enhanced by associations with a sigruticant number of artgalleries and museums in the Twin Cities area. Cooperative Education and Internships in studio art and art history provide on-the-pb, supervised, evaluated experienceswhich contribute to the student's overall education and development. Primary goals include improvement of art and museum skills, production and creative strategies. Hundreds of s m c careers exist in the general area of art. Augsburg graduates have established careers in such fields as teaching in public schools and colleges, anthropology, pottery making antique restoration and sales, film and video work, portrait painting and gallery and museum work. The f u t u holds ~ a great deal of promise for artists who can combine skills with a breadth of understanding.

BIOLOGY DEP- (BIO) Biology is the study of life and it is natural that we, as contemplative living matures, seek a deeper understanding of the living world that envelops us. This search has led to the realization that the earth is filled with an enormous variety of living organisms. Since humans are a part of the biological world, an understandingof the basic biological processes common to all organisms, as well as those features which are unique to humans, is essential to attain seIf-understanding and to provide a basis for wise decisions. Another si@ant insight that has emerged from the study of life is that even the simplest organisms are incredibly complex and a complete understanding of even one of these has, as of yet, eluded the grasp of biologists. This is true even though some organisms have been subjected to years of intensive scrutiny. Biology will thus continue to be a fertile field for research for many years to come. Still, an enormous amount of knowledge regarding living organismshas accumulated over the years. In recent decades great strides have been made in understandingimportant biological processes, particularly those at the cellular and molecular levels. Biological research has also provided some extremely important benefits to humans. Most advances in medicine, veterinary medicine, agricultureand food science have depended on the findingsof basic biological research. Because the biological world reveals such variety, complexity, and knowledge, an undergraduate major in biology needs to be broadly based. Because a complete understanding of biological systems depends on applicationsof the principles of physics and chemistry, a firm background in the physical sciences is also important for biologists. For many, an undergraduatemajor in biology serves primarily as a basis for further study. In past years Augsburg graduates have gone on to further studies in professional schools such as medicine, veterinary medicine, and dentistry. Others have entered graduate programs in the life sciences, leading to careers in areas such as college or university teaching, basic and applied research, and public or environmental health. Other graduates have embarked directly after graduation on a variety of careers, including high school teaching and laboratory technology.

To this end, three majors are offered: Business Administration, Management Information Systems (MIS) and a combination major in Economics-Business Admhistration. Business Administration and MIS should be considered separately in regard to the limitation of no more than 13courses in any one department. Within Business Administration, there are five specdizations:Accounting, Finance, Management, Marketing and InternationalBusiness. Each of these areas is dependent upon a strong foundation in the liberal arts with an emphasis on solid communication and analytical skills. Recognizing the occupational realities of the business disciplines, the Department is equally committed to maintaining an application-oriented balance. This balance is achieved in part by fosteringclose ties with the corporate community, which in turnprovides a wealth of practical expertise and a wide variety of Internship opportunities as well as future job prospects. Departmental faculty believe they can best serve both the student and the community by contributing to an education which is ethically based, technically competent and socially aware.

(Prereq.: consent of instructor) Chemistry is the science of the changes in matter, examining those changes and working toward an understanding of them. Correlating the results of physics and opening the vistas of molecular biology, chemistry has been described as the central science because matter includes the entire physical world such as the things we use, the food we eat and even ourselves. Chemists as scientistsmust be well versed in the science of chemistry, howledgeable in fad and theory for solving scientific problems, capable of providing a public understandingof their work including potential problems as well as benefits. Chemists as people must be broadly educated in order to understand themselves and their society. The liberal arts core of religion, humanities, the arts and the social sciences is imperative if a chemist is to be truly human and therefore truly scientific. The Department is on the List of Approved Schoolsof the American Chemical Society (ACS)and offers a chemistry major which meets the chemistry background required by many fields. Consonant with these ideas, the Department of Chemistry has established the following objectives to help its students develop into mature scientists To provide a course of study of sufficient rigor and depth to enable our graduates who complete our ACS chemistry major to compete successfully with their peers of similar ability in graduate school or research positions. To provide programs of study for professional goals in addition to the traditional positions as chemists. To provide an atmosphere of learning so that students will want to remain lifelong learners, thereby remaining competent in their field however that may change after graduation and be able to move into new areas as opportunities arise. To encourage students to take a broad view of their education and to seriously study areas outside of the sciences; and To present the excitement of chemistry to non-science majors as an example of the methodology of the natural sciences in examining the world around us. The presentation of mapr concepts underlying the changes in matter, the opportunity to examine change in the physical world and the reflection of the implications and limitations of science in our society will enhance the ability of non-science persons to make better value judgments concerning science questions in their own endeavors.

ECONOMICS (ECO) D E P . The Department of Economicsat Augsburg College offers a program stressing a strong theowtical background, quantitative techniques and an emphasis on both national and international issues. Students who graduate with a degree in Economics are well prepared to continue their education in a variety of fields due to the strong liberal arts emphasis within the mapr. Three majors are offered to students within this Department. The General Economicsmajor is designed for students who are planning graduate or professional studies. The Applied Economics mapr generally leads to careers in the business world. Finally, the combined Business Administration/Economics major is designed for those who wish to have more flexibility in plannning their program of study. Economics course offerings are designed to meet the needs of students preparing for advanced studies as well as for those who, immediatelyafter graduation, are interested in starting a career. An Augsburg Economics mapr provides a solid foundation on which to build national or international careersin business, law, government or public service. The program allows students, once they have completed the core courses, to concentrate on their specrficareas of interest. Studentsare able to combine an Economics major with other disciplines. For example, business, international relations, mathematics, management information systems (MIS), political science, Soviet and East European area studies or Scandinavian area studies are often combined with economics. Economicsmajors and minors are available both through Day School and Weekend College. Economics F a d * Satya P. Gupta (Chairperson),Jeanne Boeh,Magda PalecznyZapp, Edward Sabella.

E D U ~ ODEPARTMENT N (EDE, EDS, EDU) Studentsintemted in attaining teacher licensure or developing a background in education as a base for advanced study in other careers will find opportunities in the Department of Education Professional education combinesthe study of theory with practice, and field experiences are an essential part of the course offerings. The location of Augsburg College is particularly advantageous for field experiences because of the wide variety of public, private and special schools in the Twin Cities. Classroom teachingis the career that first comes to mind for graduates of teacher education pmgmns. Augsburg graduates are found in many classrooms within the Twin Cities m.In addition, they provide educational services in classrooms across the nation and in some foreign countries. The teacher education program coupled with the liberal arts program serves as a solid base for graduate education Some teaching fields mquire graduate work beyond the initial license in either elementaryor secondary education However, not all graduates choose to teach in school settings. Teacher education graduates are also found in business, working in management, sales, production and service areas. As of April 1,1988, all persons are required to take basic competency tests (prescribedby the Minnesota Board of Teaching) in reading, writing skills and mathematics prior to begnning Upper Division courses. All students must apply for acceptance into the Education
