The debate team took part in several regional collegiate tourna- nu‘nts including the Northwest and the Euu (iluirc lolll‘lmmt‘nls. The team also acted as hosts to Visiting high school teams on campus for the .'\ugslulrg-sponsorml meet. “Sneer the line” is Dayne Sather’s suggestion as he coaches a class room scene of “Death Takes a Holi- day.” As a part of the final examina- tion in the acting class students are expected to choose a scene from a play and a supporting cast and give a costumed performance. A tour of the campus would conclusively prove that Augsburg students are well practiced in the art of communication. But courses in English and speech have been made available to them because the founding fathers felt that even Augsburg stu- dents could improve the quality of their com- munication. In addition to emphasizing the proper use of the English language in oral and written expression, the English department exposes the student to the classical literature from all times. The speech department influences many areas of school life. The Christmas program, homecoming coronation, Operetta, etc., are the eflorts of the speech department in co-operation with other areas of instruction. For the first time, the University of Minnesota Campus Theater this year extended sea- son tickets to Augsburg students through the speech department here. Show less

It’s a good thing they read shorthand instead of speak it! ' Cold, clear facts and statistics are not the only concern of the business administration, commer- cial, and mathematics departments. According to the instructors, the people manipulating the cold, clear facts and statistics are important, too. A working knowledge of mathematics is felt to be a necessity in making the lives of these people simpler. This is the main basis for the existence of the department. The business administration de- partment also seeks to undergird the statistics with a broad knowledge and sound perspective of busi- ness and our economic society.

On any day, at any time, students in the natural science division at Augsburg College may be found engaged in anything from the disection of a tape- worm to a discussion of the important classes of aliphatic and aromatic compounds. Though crude, this statement illustrates the range of study pos- sible in the departments of biology and physical science. It is the general purpose of these depart- ments to provide students with a total scientific background for the enrichment of life, to spotlight the role of science in the contemporary world, and primarily to correlate and interpret science in the light of the Creator’s Word. Specifically, these de- partments train students for vocations in the natural sciences. Show less

The A-men who manned the popular apple-hamburger-pop stand at basketball games will probably be remembered by grateful fans as long as the seasons will be. In this way the A-Club’s aim, to promote interest in athletics at Augsburg. was indirectly furthered. As its name indicates. this club’s membership is limited to Auggies who have earned a letter in any college sport activity. The A-Club talent show was not confined to such a display of brawn, however; for the eve- ning the anonymous participants in the beauty contest were primarily concerned with leg art. A-men displayed their athlete-sized appetites at the fall hamburger-fry and at the spring steak fry. T; 96 Show less

LET’S DO IT The Lutheran Student Association formally existed on the Augsburg Campus for the first time this year. replacing the established Luther League. Under its new title. the group has more intimate contact with college students in the regional. national. and international L.S.A. The basic emphasis of the associa- tion at all levels is on Bible study and discussion groups. Although Augsburg students previous were collectively considered to be members of L.S.A.. this new organization has increased and specified interest. This interest was displayed in the multiplied attendance at the L.S.A. Ashrams this year. The common objectives of all the L.S.A. groups, namely worship, study, service. evangelism. and recreation were at the center of the 5 RM. Sunday evening fellowships co-sponsored with the Mission Society. The two groups also unitcd efforts to publish “The Scoop,” which reviewed activities of eleven interest groups in their different fields of service and printed original creative Work by members.

We all seem to agree that she is an Elilt‘al editor. Elaine Hunt is the managing editor who decides what should be printh and what shouldn‘t. Beverly Olson is the news editor who is always trying to find things she can call news. Ted Berkas is feature editor and likes to write poetry. Gaylen L se is the business manager that goes around worrying about how many inches of ads he has to get. Many people are the reporters. They write all the news and pop popcorn at staff meetings. Dennis Barnaal takes the pictures for the Echo but doesn’t eat popcorn. .\lr. Thorson is faculty adviser. He eats popcorn and criticizes stories and headlines if they‘re not good.

The book is a New Testament written in Greek and Latin and printedin the 17th cen- tury. It is a part of his personal library. One requirement of the course in Christian Churches is visiting the worship services of churches.of dif- ferent types. Augsburg students also find their church homes in the city’s many churches. According to Webster, religion is “any system of faith or worship;” philosophy, “the science of the theory of knowledge.” The religion and philo- sophy with which the Augsburg department of the same name concerns itself are of a far more speci- fic and personalized nature than those defined by Mr. Webster, however. Advancing on the assump- tion that Christianity alone is the basic force for satisfactory human existence, students are instruct- ed in the means to personal faith in Christ and encouraged to support their knowledge on this faith. This assumption underlies all phases of activity at Augsburg. Therefore, each student is required to register for at least one course in religion per semester. These courses provide a backbone for other study through the years; they also provide at least one common bond between all students. Faculty members and students unite in the Re- ligious Life Committee to direct the devotional life of Augsburg. Show less
