Through the informal campaigning of candidates at the Democratic and Republican coffee hours and the ('oll\'o('ali0nal address of Senator Humphrey, in- structors hoped students would gain a clearer in- sight into the subject matter which was presented the other thirty-five weeks of the school year.

After they had gone, some twelve hours later, the faculty and students met to- gether to discuss, evaluate and propose concrete solu- tions and courses of action for the situation at Augs» burg. The proposals included special scholarships for students of minority races and the possibility of re- quiring a course in minority history for all students. lt was pointed out that Augsburg's main area of re— sponse, within its role as a college, lies in curriculum and constituency. It was a day which will not soon be forgotten: for perhaps it was the beginning of a new kind ofcollege community. Show less

She was sovereign of a College united under the Homecom- ing theme. Ale-GSBL'RC: \VORLD PANORAMA. The dormitories that housed foreign students were transformed to represent dwellings in the students homelands. The Sivertsen Hall sisterhood even produced landscape in the form of mock flow- ering almond bushes to flank the walks to their Japanese tearoom. W’ithin this World panoramic setting. the various phases of Augsburg life were reviewed for return- ing alumni. The decisive victory of the Auggie eleven over Bethel College exemplified athletic life at its best. The united choral concert on Sunday afternoon exhibited the artistic possibilities in sacred music. But the week-end was probably crowned by the laying of the cornerstone for the new Library later that afternoon. At that time the dimensions of Augsburg’s horizons in Christ were apparent to all. The Homecoming Royalty—Bev, Queen Mary Jean. and Jan—enjoy every triumphant moment of the Auggie victory over Bethel. Show less
