The major subject is determined by the student’s aims as well as by his particular interests and aptitudes as shown in the quality of work he does in the Junior College. It is well for the student to know in his Freshman year what major line of study he will pursue. Students who are still unde— cided as to their major choice when they appear for registration in the Junior year, should, before they register, consult with a faculty counselor and with heads of the various departments to determine their field of major work. In planning the major, a student is re- quired to consultlwith the Head of the Department offering the major. For major and minor requirements as to hours of credit see departmental statements. ELECTIVES Electives are planned with the purpose of properly distributing a student's choices among the fundamental fields of knowledge and culture, as well as among the correlatives of the major.

Approval of the teachers concerned and the student’s adviser and the Registrar must be obtained before a change will be permit- ted. A course which is abandoned without being cancelled through the Registrar’s Office will result in a grade of F. Changes of registration which involve the adding of courses cannot be made later than two weeks after the beginning of classes. Changes which involve canceling a course cannot be made after the middle of the semester. A fee of $1.00 is‘ charged for each change of registration after the beginning of the second week of classes. A student who finds it necessary to leave school before the end of a semester must cancel his registration at the Registrar’s oflice in order to remain in good standing. UNIVERSITY COURSES By arrangement with the University of Minnesota, students may register for courses at the University. But such registration will not be allowed unless the student has a grading of C average, or I honor point per credit, in his courses at Augsburg. Also, the combined number of credits in any semester must not exceed I7. The credits thus gained at the University may be transferred to Augsburg College and counted towards graduation. Classification In order to be classified in one of the college classes, a student must be carrying a minimum of twelve hours of work in which college credit is given. Classification is based on the attainment of the following num- ber of credit hours together with an equal number of honor points: Saphomore, 24; Junior, 58; Senior, 92.

FINANCIAL SUPPORT AND CONTROL From 1870 to 1890, Augsburg was supported by the Norwegian- Danish Lutheran Conference. The merger of that church body with two others, in 1890, resulted in the affiliation of Augsburg with the newly created United NorWegian Lutheran Church. Due to differences concerning the control of Augsburg a division arose, and in 1897 congregations whose sympathies were deeply rooted in Augsburg formed the Lutheran Free Church. The resulting close association, in educational and spiritual activity, of Augsburg and the Lutheran Free Church has been marked by complete harmony of purpose and ideals for more than half a century. The control exercised by the Lutheran Free Church is indirect. The Annual Conference of the Church nominates the members of the Augsburg Corporation and the Board of Trustees. The Cor— poration through the Board of Trustees exercises direct control over property, finance, and personnel. Academic control is vested in the President and the Faculty. In addition to the income from student tuition and fees, which has materially increased with the growth and development of the College, the chief financial support of the institution comes from the congregations of the Lutheran Free Church. In recent years a growing circle of friends also outside the Lutheran Free Church, both alumni and others, have contributed financially to the sup- port of the school. Augsburg welcomes and invites such support on the part of all who believe in her program of vital Christian edu- cation. MEMBERSHIP IN EDUCATIONAL ASSOCIATIONS Augsburg College is a member of the Association of American Colleges, the National Lutheran Educational Conference, the As- sociation of Minnesota Colleges, and the State Council of Minne- sota Colleges.
