Every student shall. upon registering. sign a state- ment giving his word of honor that he will not use, give, or receive aid during examinations or tests, and that he will report all such irregularities as come under his notice to the Student Council.

Show morefiiatnriral fitmmmt AUGSBURG SEMINARY, the divinity school of the Lutheran Free Church, was founded in 1869. It is the oldest Norwegian Lutheran school of its kind in America. From its foundation until 1890 it was the Theological Seminary of the Norwegian-Danish Con— ference, and from 1890 until 1893 it served as the di- vinity school of the United Norwegian Lutheran Church of America. Since the latter date it has been connected with the Lutheran Free Church movement. For several years prior to 1869 the Scandinavian Augustana Synod had maintained a Theological Sem- inary at Paxton, Illinois. This institution served both the Swedish and the Norwegian churches of that Synod as a union seminary. The founding of Augsburg Sem— inary was the result of a mutual agreement to divide the Paxton school and to establish a separate institution to serve the Norwegian congregations. as it was quite evi— dent that the interests of the Norwegian branch of the Augustana Synod would in that way be served to greater advantage. Augsburg Seminary commenced its work in Septem- ber 1869 at Marshall, a small village in Dane County, \Visconsin. and was at first more or less loosely con— nected with “Marshall Academy”. In the fall of 1870 it was separated from that institution. and during the summer of 1872 it was moved to Minneapolis. A pre- paratory curriculum has been maintained from the be- ginning, consisting at first of a one-year course, but later on developed and enlarged into complete Academic and College Divisions. The beginning was quite insignificant; the congrega- Show less
