Now (Photos by Keith Hickabaughl He works the old-fashioned way with 'humor, love and a smile’ For years after graduation I wondered why my alma mater never put out an alumni magazine. Once I mentioned it to an old roommate, who had dropped out of college after only one semester. “Whaddya mean. no alumni magazine?" he re lied. "I get mine every quarter." So one ay when I was at alma mater, I dropped by the alumni office and asked why my friend who dropped out after only one semester got a magazine and I, who Enrollment up with more weekend students The fall 1983 enrollment at Augsburg College is 1.542 students compared to an aimllment of 1.502 in fall 1&2. Freshmen enrollment remained steady from last fall. and new transfers were up by 21) students. The increase in total numbers reﬂects a rise in students attending Weekend College.me 69 in fall 1982 to 219 in fall 1983. “We are very pleased with the increased enrollment in Weekend College." said Richard Green, vice president of academic affairs and dean of the college. "Interest in Weekend College is an additional reﬂection of Augsburg's mission to help meet the educational neetk of the Twin Odes." Recently. Charles S. Anderson. president of the college, held an informal information session called “Community Conversations with the President" for students, faculty aTid staff. This was the first in a series of six monthly sessions. During this meeting the praident provided demographics for the entering classes for the last four years: 46% men and 54% women: 78% residents and 22% commuters. Sixty percent of these students come from the Win Cities seven- county metro area. 27% from non- metropolitan Minnesota, and 13% from. out of state. The profile of students‘ religious affiliation is 57.4% Lutheran. 21.8% Roman Catholic. 9.4% other Protestant religions. and_11,4% other religions. Looking at the future Dean Green stated. “We will continue to meet the needs of our metropolitan community through the offerings in Weekend College and anticipate yowth in enrollment and increased interest in the academic opportunities of this program." In terms of Augsburg's undergraduate program he said. “We expect to experience the same kind of growth as the private colleges in the state and in the nation." —Karen Casanova ‘83 Stafferter actually graduated didn't, “Hmm.” shrugged the secretary. "Must be a computer error." Small consolation, My friend Jeroy Carlson is the sort of fellow who doesn‘t leave everything to a dadblamed computer. Jeroy is a development officer at Augsburg College. where I used to teach. A development officer is a person who has the unenviable task of dragging money out of graduates who have house payments and think college already dragged out too much tuition years back, I figure a development officer‘s job is similar to the messenger who brings bad news to Nero and then gets his head whacked off by one of the vestal virgins. Had that happened to Jeroy Carlson. his face would still have been smiling as his head rolled across the Roman Forum. But Jerov hasn‘t ever been to Rome. He‘s been too busy for therpast 20 years dragging money out of Augsburg alumni. an especially tough job in these perilous times when colleges are sinking in a sea of red ink and graduates find jobs hard to find. Some development officers get desperate and go for the big score. hoping to find a multi-billionaire who has just disinherited his wastrel son. Others rely on mass mailings and most rely heavily on the warmth generated by a computer. But not Jeroy. He does it the old- fashioned way. He talks. he tells jokes. he presses the ﬂesh, he shows concern. And there's never a donation too small. as far as Jeroy is concerned. How can a guy like that survive in a jungle of computer printouts? Good question, I was over at Augsburg the other day and ran into my old friend in Memorial Hall. He always has a bounce in his step, but this time he wasn‘t even walking on the floor. He looked as if he‘d just swallowed a solid-gold canary. "Dave," he said. "I‘ve got to tell you a story." “Sure, Jeroy. but I can‘t be funning my day away." “No. no. This is a true one," said Jeroy. "Eight years ago I tracked down this graduate from the class of 1915. a Ph. D.. a chemist in Garden City. NY. He was a bachelor and so I thought he might have some money to spare. I reached him on the phone and introduced myself. He said he'd heard of me and asked what I wanted I told him I thought it would be wonderful if he could donate some money to the college, Sure. sure. he said. but first let‘s talk. So we did. He wanted to know what happened to this classmate and that teacher and what it was like on campus. I happened to Jeroy Carlson. 12 "’93 Fall 1983 Volume 47, Number 1 Formo, Grindal, Gudmestad join ranks of Distinguished Alumni Augsburg College honored three alumni with the Distinguished Alumni Award during 1983 homecoming festivities.

Herm Holten, a 1943 graduate of Augsburg, retired last spring after 32 years as athletic director at Montevideo High School, in Minnesota.

He took Montevideo to the state tournament in 1956. Holten coached basketball for 11 years, golf for 20 years, tennis and basketball for a number of years, and was a football line coach. Holten came to Augsburg after an ex- cellent career at South High School in neapolis. Since his home was only srx blocks from campus, he was an Augsburg natural. Captain of the basketball team for two years, Holten was third in conference scoring.

Center to coordinate Scandinavian events and information underway Representativs of Scandinavian organi- zations are develogi‘rlrrg a Scandinavian Center on the Augs g campus for the Twin Cities metropolitan area. The Scandinavian Centers' prime func- tion is to serve as a coordinating center for Scandinavian events and as an informa- tion center. “We think the center will render a real service that would fill a need not provided new by an area organiza- tion, ' said Dr. Gordon ork, president of the Scandinavian Center. Mark is a retired professor of the college of education at the University of Minnesota. He is president of the Norwegian National League. “There is no central coordinating facili- ty in the Upper Midwest, where the largest concentration of Scandinavian people live. It will serve as a service center for Scan- dinavain events,” said Abner Batalden, coordinator of the project and longtime development officer for Augsburg. “This Center will be a continuation of the Scandinavian Today program which ended last May," said Batalden. The Center is to promote non-political ac- tivities that advance the cause of Scandinavian-American relations. The center will aid five groups with Scandinavian backgrounds including Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Norwegian and Swedish plus related institutions. The board of directors, with a maximum of 15 From the Pastor members, will have three members from each of those five Scandinavian beck- grounds. "The purpose is to strengthen Scandinavian organizations and imtitu- lions,” said Jerry Bjelde vice praident of development and public relations at Augsburg. “Plans for this went back to thedreams of Oscar Anderson, former president of Augsburg College. He had ideas of a Scan- dinavian Center at Augsburg Cong" said Mork. Augsburg's current presi t, Charles S. Anderson, helped this dream become reality by offering the use of hous- ing for office use and conference s cc. Augsburg has also offered the me 0 col- lege buildings, dining and other faciliti. Mork concluded that the center would work in close cooperation with Augsburg. As a coordinating body, the center will host and serve Scandinavian groups or in- dividuals from this country or Scan- dinavia, encourage the uisuit of Scan- dinavian studies and e exchange of students between Scandinavian countries and the United States, and foster Scan- dinavian arts. crafts and cultures of Sean- dinavian countries through sponsorship. The center will also have contact with the Scandinavian-American Genealogical Society. — Michelle Marita '30 Student Staﬂwrlter Bring home hope of world peace Perhaps it was because 100,000 would assemble on a day that was nearly 100 degrees. Perha it was because of its location on Ian owned by a government uns mpathetic to religious concerns. Per ps it was became I had never seen such a large and lively assembly in the three summers I had been in this country. Whatever the reason, I came away from this Christian festival in East Germany with a greater sense of urgency for creating a better understanding between the peoples of East and West. The words that were 5 ken and sung concerned peace, reconc‘ iation and dar- ing involved in trusting God. They were not simply words to these people who were from Lutheran, Catholic, Presbyterian, Moravian and other backgrounds. They were a lifestyle.

They had worn theae patches until they were banned 1) the government leaders who feared reper- cussrons among sympathizers. Most had never met an American. Naturally, most of the 100 young adults with me on these visits had never met an East German. The thought of destroyindgiglne another sud- denly took on personal ensions. Those who once were thought to be enemies were now friends and family. As the new college pastor. I me a sense of urgency to showing so dan- ty with our brothers and sisters t the world. I am bonded by a faith in Christ to the people who cannot travel beyond the concrete and wire walls which enclose them I am also bonded by faith to people who are enclosed within the walls of op- prssion, hunger, and injustice in other parts of the world. I ﬁnd it interesting to observe that with all of the technological advances made in our world in the last decades, there have not been overwhelming advances in the realm of people getting along with other people. In the religious community, we often talk about reconciliation. In other areas, we talk about conflict resolution. Yet, many of is feel inadequate when it coma to addressing thae issues and con- certs.

Though Shalom may not be an immediate possibility, we might work to create the conditions for its appearance in the human community. I am confident that through worship a Shalom community can begin.

The progam developed by the Alumni Board's Development and Admissions committee aims to identify repre sentatives in 100 congregations by May 3!. Nearly 70 already have been identiﬁed through efforts of Quanbeck and others, Most of them are in Lutheran congregations in the Twin Cities metropolitan area. but there are some in other churches and several other states. Anyone interested in the program is invited to contact Wahl by letter to Augsburg College. 731 2151 Avenue South.

Augsburg's Education Department Chairperson. spent fall semester 1982 doing a faculty internship at Wilson Learning Corpora» tion. an Eden Prarie company that repares educational materials for usmesses. “More education is going on outside the traditional walls of education." said McNeff. “and I wanted to see some of it." McNeff worked in the program development office. which primarily produces materials “to help people realize their tential. Thirty~two programs have been evelopedovertheyears.“ She worked with teams of people from a variety of backgrounds: “teachers. salesmen. people with a background in computers. managers. secretaries. Putting the programs together was a collaborative effort. We struggled with major social concepts - history. sociology. arts. and education. It was a process of taking information and making it useful." One of the biggest fears McNeff found herself facing was the role change. “I quationed after having been a teacher if I could do anything else. When l first walked in. everyone was doing Wangs and workin with machines called bursters. By the en of the first week. though. I was doing Wangs and I knew what bursters were. My greatest asset was my ability to leamandtolearn uickly." “The boss as ed where a college professor learned to do all those things. It was lnterating for me to see the myths that business has about academic institutions." McNeff found her internship valuable in ex loring one of the alternative ways in whic educators may interact with the business community, “I saw institutions normally independent of each other. and l ""4 . .- . Marlo Mchﬂ'I one com-Ito: ln‘.rﬂ|hlp ll WIIID" Looming Corp enpandod her information saw how their differences can enhance one another." Declining enrollment may bring about increased interaction between the community and schools. or it may change the type of interaction the schools and the community have traditionally had, “In this high tech world. things are changing rapidly. Four percent unem loyment has traditionally been consi ered full employment. We may be coming to a point where they may need to consider eight percent unemployment as full employment. because there are large numbers of people who are in transition from one career to another. or who are retraining to keep up with changes in their present jobs. Some career areas. such as nursing. medicine. and education have continuing education built in as a requirement for continuation of their license. There is much dissatisfaction in these areas. and at some point. people in those areas will rise up and demand relevant education." noted McNeff. She hopes to be able to utilize her experience in assisting students in exploring the changing needs and role of education in society. and to apply some of her ideas in areas such as Augsburg Weekend College and in seminars that involve members of the business communit .

Roommate friendships span two generations and Pacific Ocean for Ose and Hsiao families A friendship that started at Augsburg College in the mid-19505 has been maintained during all these years across the Pacific Ocean, and a new friendship has been started —- again at Augsburg College — in the second generation of Hsiaos and Oses. From 1954 to 1956, Andrew Hsiao and Gaylen Ose were roommates at Augsburg. Now 27 years later, their sons David Hsiao and Paul Ose are roommates and classmates at Augsburg. Andrew and Gaylen kept in contact after graduation from college. Over the years, all three of Andrew and Anna Hsiao‘s children have lived with the Oses in McIntosh MN during their high school or college years. Hsiao is president of Lutheran Theological Seminary in Hong Kong and second vice president of the Lutheran World Federation. Hsiao‘s daughter lived with Gaylen‘s family as part of a foreign exchange program during her high school years. David Hsiao, Andrew‘s ounger son, decided then, “that 1 want to come over too. I lived with the Ose family during my junior and senior years in high school. Paul and I were in the same class." When Paul Ose, Gaylen's son, and David made their college plans, they both applied at Augsburg. "We knew the campus and we knew the school," said Paul. “My father, my Uncle Roger, and my father's sister, and my mother (Phyllis Redenbaugh ‘55) and her sister all went to Augsburg." Philip Hsiao, David’s older brother, also attended Augsburg. “My father and David‘s father share some common interests. That‘s probably what kept them in contact for all these years,“ said Paul Ose. His father is pastor of the ALC parish at McIntosh. “David and I have some common interests as well. We’re both interested in photography: in fact David is the one who first got me interested in photography." The sons are both sophomores at Augsburg this year. Ose is planning a major in engineering and David has not decided on an area of study. One of the greatest contributions... A parent recently asked me, “why should 1 send my daughter to Augsburg College?" It seemed that other church- related colleges were “safer - out of the city with larger and more beautiful campuses and offering a somewhat Winnie Anderson isolated community for their prospective student." The college campus was their town. Why Augsburg? Augsburg is one of the few Lutheran Colleges located in a large metro-urban area. If an urban college were to be built today. a look at a Twin Cities map would probably show the Augsburg location 7th Street and 21$t Avenue to be the strategic location. The college‘s location enables students in all disciplines to participate in internship programs throughout Minneapolis and St. Paul. The Twin Cities metro area serves as both a laboratory and classroom to Augsburg students. Or, if the students chooses, the Augsburg community can be found within the confines of the campus. Founded in 1869, Augsburg has been located at the geographic center of the dynamic Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul since 1872. With 75 percent of the population soon to be living in the metro- urban areas - what better way is there to prepare your son or daughter for life than to offer unique opportunities for relating liberal arts learning to real life situations. The liberal arts faculty at Augsburg helps students develop a conscience and consciousness to deal with the real world in which we live. In a message to the Alumni Association Board, Dr. Joel Torstenson. professor emeritus of sociology, said “Augsburg is in the front seat of modern urban life." Why take the back seat! Many alumni and readers of Augsburg College Now have submitted names of prospective students to the Office of Admissions. A number of these are now students at Augsburg College. If you know of students who are exploring college choices and may be interested in a church college, please send us their names. They can be your own sons and daughters, your relatives, or students from your church and community contacts. One of the greatest contributions you can give to Augsburg College is a student. We look forward to working with the students you recommend. —Winnlc Anderson (‘61) President, Augsburg Alumni Association Prospective Student Request Name Address City State Zp Telephone l ) High School Your Name Address City State Zip Send to: Admissions Office Augsburg College, 731 let Avenue South Minneapolis, MN 55454

Thirty- three students earned 4.0 averages Students must have a 3.5 or better grade point average for the semester to be named to the Dean's List. In Green‘s letter of congratulations to students, he stated “I am proud to have you as a member of the Augsburg College community, and I am sure your special efforts in your academic program will provide you with a multitude of blessings and successful experiences once you conclude your studies at the college." Peter Skjervold Citystock sets stage for summer Augsburg College Theater has a reputation of energy and excellence, of overcoming difficulties and providing plays that are truly exceptional by amateur standards. Augsburg‘s drama students, like the faculty members who lead them, are innovative and serious artists. They are optimistic and as enthusiastic as ever to continue the new year as the old year ended with the success of Godspell last autumn. This year the theater season will not end with Spring Term. Peter Skjervold, a senior theater major, has formed a new and independent Summerstock Company that would keep the Stage 11 Theater during the summer. The project called Citystock, will be managed and directed by students and is not a part of the Augsburg Department of Communication and Theater Arts, although it has the full support of Dr. Ailene Cole and other theater faculty. Citystock will be a professional company and the demands on the actors will be great. But it is hoped that the quality of the productions will generate new and even greater enthusiasm among alumni and the community for a theater that boasts great talent. The drama majors at Augsburg have been joined by other students who feel strongly that Augsburg theater is an important means by which the college can be a center of its community. The students want to show that Augsburg Theater can not only continue but can grow despite a very limited budget. Skjervold, Citystock artistic director, is a professional musician and has had experiences in many plays at Augsburg and last year directed a one-act play performed with other student directors in the Little Theater. He performed most recently in Godspell last Autumn and he hopes to continue acting and directing in the future. The proposed Summer project, Citystock, will use the talents of local actors to produce two opular shows. The first of these sche uled for opening Friday, June 10 1983, will be Noel Coward’s “Blithe Spirit." The second, scheduled to open July 8 will be Tennessee Williams' “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." Both shows will be cast from the Citystock Company formed from open auditions. Although is unlikely that actors will be paid for their performances, the experience will be invaluable and any interested professonals, semi-profes- sionals, college and even graduating high school students are invited to audition for the company. Skjervold's business manager for the non-profit organization is Kimberly Korbel, a senior majoring in international business at Augsburg. Together they hope to be able to create a whole new learning environment for Augsburg theater students, as well as an opportunity for pro- spective theater majors from Twin Cities high schools to be exposed to college theater at Augsburg. But this will require support and donations from Augsburg alumni and patrons in the community. All alumni are urged to take the time to attend these shows in addition to the two shows produced during the regular season. Approximately $5,000 must be raised in order to cover the cost of costumes, scenery and advertisement. Donations of $25, $50, or $100 or more will entitle contributors‘ names to be listed in the programs as patrons; also, season tickets will be available in advance for Citystock. This is an unprecedented and ambitious development in the history of Augsburg‘s Theater Department. The theater season now includes a major play in the autumn and spring and the Children's show during January Interim. With Citystock, Augsburg's season will include a play during the two Summer School terms as well, rounding out the year. Anyone interested in becoming a Citystock patron or receiving full information, auditions, performance dates and season ticket rices should write to: Ms. Kimberly Korbel, Citystock Business Manager, Augsburg College, 731 South let Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 55454. —James W. Maortcns Augsburg Student Minneapolis, Minnesota Some things don’t have to change like the magic made in “Cigam” Although we are well into the beginning of spring semester and our interim experiences seem far in the past, I often have to restrain myself from skipping through the College Center or from shouting "CIGAM!" every time a door is opened in Urness. I was not prepared for the lasting effect my interim class has had on my life. The brief description of “Story Theater“ in the interim catalogue consisted of the following: “This class will improvise, produce, and perform a children's play. Whatever is needed - script, costumes, props, lights, scenery, music, dance - will be created and executed by the class. Performances are scheduled for the final week." Well, we did learn quite a bit about theater and acting, but more importantly, we learned about unity — “a state of oneness." I am convinced that it would be nearly impossible to duplicate the environment which created our unity in a regular classroom situation. As cast member Lisa Pestka (FR - Rochester, MN) commented, “We really got to know everyone — and not just names. Now that it's over with, we're still friends, not just acquaintances." Another cast member, Steve Danielson (Cadott, WI), said, “I learned much more than I had expected about how to work with other people. It was the only class I‘ve had where I could give my all." Job Fair ’83 assists graduating students Job Fair '83 is one way that graduating students from Augsburg learn about entering the job market and come closer to that job after graduation. The Career Planning and Placement Office at Augsburg assists students in making contact with such events as Job Fair ’83. This year 36 Augsburg students attended the event. More than 450 seniors from Minnesota private colleges and more than 50 national and regional employers participated in Job Fair. The event is hosted by the 17 Minnesota Private College Career Planning and Placement Offices. Job Fair is structured to assist college seniors and corporate recruiters meet their respective employment needs. Activities include workshops on entering the job market; company presentations and formal interviews with recruiters. An all-alumni event is set for Thursday, June 16 in conjunction with a Citystock comedy play, to be announced. Save the night and mark your calendars to attend this theater production on the Augsburg campus. Interestingly enough, interim, when used as an adjective, is defined as “temporary.” But the relationships formed in this course certainly were not temporary. St. Exupery, in his book “The Little Prince," speaks of the wonderful concept of “taming.” For those of you not familiar with this story, it concerns a small boy who lives all alone on his tiny planet. Confused arid lonely, he departs for other planets to learn all that he can about love and the secrets of the universe. When he eventually reaches the Earth, he meets a fox, who says to the little prince, “Tame me.” The little prince doesn’t understand. So the fox begins to explain to the boy about friendships, and commitment, and love. Eventually, he warns his friend, “If you tame me, then when you leave, I shall cry." Why would the fox want to be tamed if it would only bring him sadness in the end? The fox replies, “It is because of the color of the wheatfields." “I do not eat bread. Wheat is of no use to me. And that is sad. But you have hair that is the color of gold. Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat... “ The final scene of CIGAM dealt with the most beautiful magic of all - the magic of our memories. The cast joined Steve Danielson and D’Anne Privette in singing the theme song, written by Steve: “Good things don’t always last forever — Some things don’t remain the same. But when we use the magic of our memories, the best things don’t have to change. ” Our interim experiences couldn‘t go on forever, no matter how good they were. But some things don't ever have to change - like the friendships that grew out of our unity. So thank you, Ms. Cole, for the memories...and thank you Sharron, Ed, and Andrew, Steve, Dave, Char and Julie, Scott, Laurie, D'Anne and Anna, Brenda, Sue, Lisa...thank you, my friends, for taming me. If you see a group of people form a danceline and dance through the skyway, or if the next time you go through a door someone shouts “CIGAM!", please understand. .it‘s because of the color of the wheatfields. — Tammy J. Rider Student Staffwriter

A $25,000 gift to the archives from Andrew Urness was coordinated by Gerald Bjelde in the Development Office. The gift provided the funding for Futcher's position of temporary archivist and several other necessary improvements for the archives. Bjelde said about the gift. “It was evident there was a need to bring in a professmnal. experienced staff person to reorganize the archives and to provide the basis for future use of the archives," A major portion of the budget includes plans for the installation of a badly needed climate control system to delay deterioration problems especially common to older pa ers used in publications during the ast ccntury lt combines air filtration, ventilation. humidity and temperature control systems to maintain a desirable storage environment Another portion of the budget was sci for the purchase of acid-free document holders.

The Auggies participated in six indoor meets this year with senior Mark Hirsch (Minneapolis) showing the best perfor- mance in the shot put. At MIAC Con- ference Day, Hirsch placed third with a toss of 48 feet 1%; inch. Seniors Kevin Haugstad (Preston MN) and Tim Wendt (Brooklyn Center MN) are the team's co—captains. "Kevin and Tim have both done a nice job for us in the sprints so far this season." said Coach Paul Grauer. At an early indoor meet Haugstad ran the 300 meter dash in 38.0 to claim first place from a six-team field and in the same day Wendt finished fourth in the 55 meter dash with a time of 6.8. "Greg Bagley (Bloomington MN) is another sprinter with potential. Right now he has a knee injury, but I hope he can come back for us. He runs the 400 meter (race) and is a member of our relay team," said Coach Grauer. Bagley, a sophomore, tied for fifth in the 300 meter dash with a 39.2 mark early in the season. Freshman Tom Ott (Lakeville MN) is Augsburg‘s hurdler. His specialty is the intermediate hurdles. As a rule he doesn't usually run the high hurdles. but lately he has been. At Carleton he finished second, just five tenths of a second behind the first place mark in the 60 yard highs. Sophomore Todd Hubbard (Anoka MN) and senior Dave Triebwasser (Monticello MN) are the middle distance men for Augsburg and also run the mile relay. The distance races are covered by senior Dan Schueller (South St. Paul MN). 0n the field, sophomore Auggies Dave Johnson (Bloomington MN) and Mike Kindem (Apple Valley MN) both placed. third and fourth respectively, at Carleton earlier in the season. Pole vaulters sophomore Paul Ose (McIntosh MN) and freshman Dave Drake (Sarona WI) have been making their marks as well. At the opening meet of 1983, Drake hit 12-6 to tie for third place. Ose finished first at Carleton in the pole vault and went on to claim another first place finish in the long jump with a leap of 184.

Minneapolis freshman leads scoring for women The Augsburg women's basketball team concluded the 1982-83 season with an overall record of 7 wins-15 losses, The Auggies posted a young team this year with only two upper classwomen on the roster: co—captains senior Julie Gold- stein (Glencoe. MN) and junior Terese Taylor (Buffalo Lake, MN). Goldstein was the team‘s third leading scorer averaging 11.0 points per game. She also averaged 6.0 rebounds per game and came up with 40 steals and 43 assists throughout the season. Taylor was the Auggies spark plug. She is small on the court at 5 foot 3 inches, but she is quick enough to cause turnovers in favor of Augsburg, leading the team in steals with 62 overall this season. Taylor was strong offensively as well for the Auggies and even after being injured for the last two games, she claimed the second leading scorer position for the season, averaging 12.7 points per game along with her 88 assists on the year. The underclasswomen were not without their share of standouts. Brenda Hart (Minneapolis) was starting freshman center for the Auggies. Throughout she was on the boards rebounding and looking to score from underneath on offense. Hart was both Augsburg’s leading scorer and rebounder for the 1982—83 season averaging 15.1 and 6.8 rebounds per game respec- tively. She was named to the MIAC All- Conference team. The inconsistent team play for Augsburg was not without high points. For example, the last home game of the season placed the Auggies against rival Gustavus Adolphus and it was close to the wire. When the buzzer sounded to end regulation time the score was tied at 49—49. Led by the 18 points and 9 rebounds of sophomore forward/guard Trudy Fairbanks (North Branch, MN), Augsburg pulled off a 62-55 victory in overtime to end the team’s home season with a win. The Auggies were coached by Marilyn Pearson. She is in her third season as head basketball coach at Augsburg. OPPONENT Augs.

Mass in b minor at Orchestra Hall To commemorate the 500th anniversary of the birth of Martin Luther, the Augsburg College music department presented a performance of Johann Sebastian Bach‘s MASS in B minor on Sunday March 13, 1983 at Minneapolis‘ famed Orchestra Hall. The performance, conducted by Larry L. Fleming. featured the Augsburg Choir, faculty soloists, a professional orchestra and a festival Chorus comprised of Augsburg faculty, alumni and friends In lieu of taking a traditional annual tour, the Augsburg Choir devoted its energies to the study and preparation of one of the crowning masterpieces of Western art, Johann Sebastian Bach's MASS in B minor which is seldom performed because of its complexity and massive scope. “Each is recognized and undoubtedly is the greatest composer in the western world," said Fleming, "Produced on top of that is the MASS which is the single most significant work." The MASS in B minor has never lacked praise for its perfect symmetry and pro- portions. The perfect balance of restrained chamber music intimacy (in the arias), with festive outbursts of joy (the “Et resurrexit"), of expressive chromaticism ("Crucifixus"), with restful lyricism (“Dona nobis pacem“), exemplify Bach at his finest. This unique synthesis of contrasting elements into an overall unity is a strong contributing factor to the greatness of his masterpiece. From the resounding opening chords of the “Kyrie” through the final prayer “Dona nobis pacem", Bach‘s MASS in B minor is sheer inspiration. Fleming, chairmen of Augsburg College music department since 1979, completed his undergraduate education at Concordia College and has degrees in conducting, compisition and musicology 1M.A,, M.F.A,, and PhD) from the University of Minnesota. A composer and a conductor, Fleming has received composition and conducting commissions from high schools and colleges in Connecticut, Minnesota, New York and Pennsylvania. City arson investigator '49 graduate On Thanksgiving evening, after the aroma of the traditional holiday feast had faded and the football game had ended, many Twin Citians were relaxing with full stomachs and hearts full of the company of loved ones. However, the Thanksgiving scene was quite different for the firefighters who were working to extinguish one of the largest holocausts in downtown Minneapolis Working with these men, using knowledge and curiosity instead of hoses and axes, was the Chief Fire and Arson Investigator for Minneapolis, James Carlson. Carlson is an Augsburg graduate from Job and career services offered The Career Planning and Placement ""fice at Augsburg offers many services to lmlp students locate jobs and inform stu- dents about careers.

His wife, Barbara Eske Carlson (‘48) and son Dan (‘76) are also Augsburg alumni. He has been working as chief fire investigator for five years, after spending 17 years on the Arson Squad. Carlson has spent a total of 30 years with the Minneapolis Fire Department. The Thanksgiving fire which consumed the old downtown Donaldsons building is one of the estimated 500 fires that the Arson Squad investigates each year. “It was different because of the amount of publicity and the large amount of money involved," said Carlson, “As arson investigators, we‘re not concerned with where the fire went, but where it started. All fires start small, but it's where it begins that’s important." “When the police get a call, they always know they have a crime; here we don’t know what happened." Carlson describes Arson investigators as detectives who work together with the police. “First we determine who saw the fire first, and narrow the source down by eliminating all possible causes. If there are no apparent causes left, we have arson." Determining suspects is the most difficult part of investigating a fire, due to lack of evidence, according to Carlson. Investigators generally find who‘s involved by hearsay; — talking to people to find out their observations and what they hear. “Somebody involved usually says something. Secrets can‘t be kept for very long." Carlson said that apprehending someone who has been a long term fire setter is a rewarding part of his job._“It’s a pure form of fire prevention; we can‘t measure it because there is no way of knowing how many fires that person would have started if they wouldn't have been caught.“ Janice Haselhorst Student Staffwriter Minneapolis, Minnesota Augsburg sponsors Ojibwe Art Expo The 10th anniversary of the Ojibwe Al‘t Expo will be celebrated this year with exhibits at Minneapolis and Bemidji.

There are also nurses. secretaries. assemblers and library clerks. 0n weekends, they attend classes in Augsburg's Weekend College. Until recent years. college education was available only in traditional day schools and in evening classes. Augsburg‘s Weekend College provides a new educational alternative where students can earn a college degree by attending classes on alternate weekends, Courses are taught in such areas as business administration, communication and social work. Next fall, the college's new management Information systems major wlll e available through Weekend College. Many adults want a college degree but find that day and evening classes are difficult to balance with jobs, business meetings. community responsibilities and family competing for that time slot.

"I've take several evening classes before. but I often found that l was tired after a day's work. With Weekend College. I attend classes every other weekend. and I still have time to meet other obligations." Returning to school has an impact in the personal lives of students. Although the every-other-weekend schedule of weekend college classes offers greater ﬂexibility than ordinary college classes. it still cuts into the time usually set aside for family activities or for free time. Frequently family and friends do not immediately understand the desire to go back to school when the student already has a good job. “When I first went back to school (in the Honeywell classes). my wife didn't understand why 1 wanted to do that." said Kamps. “But then I got a job in management. I was promoted after my first eight months in management. and l was promoted again in 112 years. Now my wife supports this new venture 100 per- cent." lrene Stemmer said. "l'm noticing changes in my family. We lived through test anxiety. and can clearly relate to some of the things that my children have already experienced. This changes and enriches our relationship in a unique way." Students cite many reasons for returning to school—preparation for a career change. personal enrichment or professional advancement Others find that technology has changed the requirements in job fields. As computers and other technical advancements eliminate unskilled and semi-skilled positions. a new level of jobs appears that requires a college degree at entry level posrlions "1 need to do this for myself." said Irene Stemmer. a SG-ycarold Weekend College student Stemmer went to busrncss school when she graduated from high school. took business administration and office management classes and attended bu5|n(‘SS seminars through thv years "I've done well in business. but l want to got a utllt‘gcdogrm' l \t‘nt‘\ vr dam-that Stemmer said shc goes to “l‘t‘ltt‘l’ld College for personal enhanccmi‘nt and a dmate mason ' _ .

As participants in the work force. Weekend College students have had the opportunity to assess the relevance of their educational preparation. At times. Weekend College students are aware of changes in their occupational areas that require additions or changes in college curriculums. Learning in Weekend College becomes an exchange process in three directions: students learn from the professor. students learn from other students. and professors learn from the students. The tone and feel of Weekend College classes is shaped by the experiences of the students, As professors present general principles. students can often provide concrete examples of where and how these principles are applied in their own areas. Questions have a clear focus. Professor Rick Thoni. director of thc Weekend College. joked in his general psychology class. “I'm going to have to talk about Freud in front of a psychiatric nurse ” As a discussmn of the principles of personality development and the use of various tests. such as intelligence tests. progressed. students gave examples of clinical application and their practical use in school systems where their children had taken them The motivation level of Weekend College students is high Having worked. they have either discovered fields they llltt’ or they have crossed off occupations they \e found less rewarding The) ban» Nlmt' idea of the practical and financial \aluc of a dcng in their chosen fields. and have deemed the inicstmi-nt is worth the risk Kamps said The instructor down! how to wonder \Ah\ people are in the class.

Show more6 — Faculty News You just can‘t pull people off the street and ask them to translate Early New High German into English. That's the dilemma in which Lutheran Brotherhood officials found themselves when they began a search to find an expert to read the Georg Spalatin letters and put them into understandable English. Many can read German, but it‘s the rare individual who can understand Early New High German. Fortunately one of those rare individuals was at Augsburg College in Minneapolis He‘s Dr. Donald Steinmetz. associate professor of German and linguistics, one of perhaps two or three persons in the entire state who could have handled the job. Donald Steinmetz “It was one of the most interesting and challenging translations I've ever done.“ said Steinmetz. “Early New High German was prominent from 1400 to 1600. but it was an artificial language. That is. it was used mostly for writing and not for speaking“ It took Steinmetz nearly one week to translate the 19 documents. and the hurdles were many. “One of the early difficulties was the handwriting.“ he pointed out. “At times. lettering was in a rapid running style, while at other times it was a formal hand, more decorative. Even in the rapid running style. the writing. at times, appeared to be made in more haste than normal. Once i got used to the hand, it went more smoothly. although some words were indistinguishable.“ Steinmetz explained that translating from archaic Early New High German presented problems. but they were not unexpected. “First of all. there is no comprehensive Early New High German dictionary. so, at times. I had to refer to a Middle High German dictionary and dialect dictionaries of modern German to get clues for some of the words." he said. “The grammar. vocabulary and style are different from other forms of German; words have different meanings than in the languages that followed. I couldn't translate some of the words at all. Apparently they became obsolete. And some were so obscure that it would have taken me months to find them. Sateren continues professional work Leland B. Sateren, professor emeritus of music. has been continuing choral workshops throughout the United States and abroad. His six-movement choral work “Nature Set" was performed by the University of Oslo (Norway) at a concert given at the Munch Museum in Oslo. In mid-February, Sateren conducted the 120-voice Kennesaw College “All-Star Choir" in Atlanta GA and later that month he did a session with the_ Minnesota Chapter of the American Choral Directors Association. Sateren and several other composer—conductors will work with the Brainerd High School Choir April 20 and 21 preparing three of his compositions for a on concert. The Cathedral Choir of Uppsala, Sweden, will perform Sateren‘s “Prayer for Peace“ at the World Peace Conference being held in Uppsala during the week of April 17. Sateren also just completed a major work for choir, organ, small orchestra, readers. and dancers, commisssioned jointly by the Minnesota Composers Commissioning Program and St. John‘s Lutheran Church in Minneapolis for the 100th anniversary of the church in May. (amuseusmmw Translator, Don Steinmetz, finds Spalatin letters challenging ,' ’W] I rate-“~- ’... .... a}, ‘n' Written on highly durable cloth paper, the Spalatin letters data between 1528 and 1542. The collection consists of 19 documents. (Photo from Lutheran Brotherhood) “However, these few words had no bearing on the outcome of the translation. It leaves me no doubt of the message and intent of the documents. My only regret is the project had to come to an end. It was an exciting experience, and I hope I have the opportunity to translate more materials." Editor's Note: This article is reprinted with permission from the Lutheran Brotherhood publications Life and Leader. Georg Spatlain was a close associate of Martin Luther and a strong supporter of the Reformation. The Spalatin letters. owned by Lutheran Brotherhood, are written on highly durable cloth paper and date between 1528 and 1542. Among the significant letters are a paper on parish visitation. a series of instructions to peasants and instructions for pastors concerning duties and personal conduct. The Spalatin letters will be among the first materials to be microfilmed for the newly established Lutheran Brotherhood Refor- mation Research Library. Steinmetz came to Augsburg in 1968. He is an associate professor of foreign languages and has bachelor’s and master's degrees and a doctorate from the University of Minnesota. This semester Steinmetz is teaching in the ACTC German Program at the University of Vienna in Austria. Sociological and educational concerns topics for research and articles by professors Housing, neighborhoods Garry Hesser, associate professor of sociology and director of the Metro—Urban Studies Program at Augsburg, had two major articles published on housing and neighborhoods during the past year. He also presented two papers at the World Congras of Sociology in Mexico City and the American Sociological Association An- nual Meeting in San Francisco. The paper presented in Mexico City in August 1982 was entitled “Mobility, Neighborhood Interaction and Main~ tenance." Hesser's findings were based on two major studies in Minneapolis and Wooster OH, and are based on 1200 responses from homeowners and renters. The paper focused upon public licy deci- sions which influence mo ility and permanence of homeowners, thus documenting the importance and impact these policies have on the actual and perceived problems of urban neighborhoods such as crime and safety. Lori Moline, a 1982 metro-urban studies major, co—authored this article. The second paper, "Kinship, Neighborth and Social Participation" examines theories that predict persons substitute one form of social participation with others. or, that there is a cumulative effect such as persons who "belong" to one type of group are more likely to have multiple memberships and interaction. Hesser has recently published two ar- ticles in collaboration with George Galster, College of Wooster. Their research centers on residential satisfac- tion and the importance of neighborhood cohesion to housing maintenance and improvements. Tilt? have made some rogress in iden ' ying how different liouseholds evaluate and/or adapt to similar housing and neighborhood problems and opportunities. Both articles specified the im rtance of perceived commonality an friendliness amon neighbors and their satisfaction with an maintenance of the neighborhood in which they live. Both articles document the value of neighborth input in lanning and policy formation. Their evi ence suggest that policies which are not tailored to par- ticular neighborhoods and residents will be diluted. These articles utilized inter- views and follow-up surveys of 600 Min- neapolis homeowners. Eight Augsburg students majoring in sociology and metro urban studies have played key roles as in- terviewers. Hesser Franklin Curriculum history Barry Franklin, assistant professor in education, and a faculty member since 1908, received funding from the Office of Faculty Development to prepare a monograph entitled, “Building the American Community: The American School Curriculum and the Search for Social Contro .” Franklin’s research centered on the history of curriculum practice in the schools. He beoame interofshted in the sub- 'ect as a way 0 supp ying e miss‘ link between the history of educational ildlegas as articulated by theorists and the way in which these ideas are actually im- plemented in the school systems throughout the United States Using the Minneapolis Public Schools archives, Franan examined the history of curriculum change in the Minneapolis Public Schools from 1917 to 1950. He focused on the social efﬁciency movement. which was dedicated to restructuring the school curriculum toward more func- tional, vocational and social goals and away from traditional, liberal arts train- ing. This movement introduced courses such as vocational education, home economics, civics and health. He concluded that rarely are educa- tional ideas implemented in their pure form. There are always mediating factors at the local school level that curtail im- plementin ideas. And secondly, charges that schoo suppress the poor and ethnic minorities cannot be proved empirically, since these charges are made by criticiz- ing curriculum theory. not practice. School personnel seemed to resist ideas that suppressed these two minorities, and were much more egalitarian and humane- ly oriented.

Oak Ridge Minimester—time to soak up science Augsburg students spent two weeks in January soaking up science in Oak Ridge, Tennessee as part of a Science Mini- mester, an intensive program of basic nuclear-related research at Oak Ridge Universities. The exacting. but exciting schedule of the minimester program is tailored to the interests of undergraduate majors in physical as well as life science disciplines. Each day consisted of two hours of lecture and six hours in the laboratory. The students were able to gain experience with more than $2 million worth of specialized scientific equipment. Field trips to Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Tennessee Valley Authority power plants supplemented the classroom experience. “it was great to be able to use laboratory equipment and do experiments in nuclear physics that I could not do at Augsburg. Without the trip. I would never have been able to experience the things that I did." said Tim Solberg. a sophomore engineering/math major at Augsburg, from New Hope MN. Each program participant pays only for travel and living expenses; there is no charge for the educational portion of the program. Augsburg students can take the course for one credit, just like a regular interim class. Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) is a private, non-profit association of more than 50 colleges and universities It seeks to help the US. Department of Energy. and other private and governmental organizations. It conducts diverse. cooperative programs of research. training, education, and information and is noted for contributions to the development of science and human resources. The group of Augsburg students. plus 17 others from around the United States, was led by ORAU staff members and visiting scientists. One of these visiting faculty was Kermit Paulson. associate professor of Alpha Chi officers Last fall Augsburg College became a member of Alpha Chi National Honor Society. Junior and senior students were admitted to membership. Officers for the group are Tove Dahl, a junior from St. Paul; Richard Asiamah, a senior from Obo. Ghana; Nancy Schlueter. a junior from Hutchinson MN; and Myles Weber, a junior from Virginia MN. Norma Noonan, center and professor of political science, is the faculty sponsor and Richard Green. left, is vice president for academic affairs and dean of the college. Two national Alpha Chi officers also attended the all-college convocation. (Photo by Keith Rickabaughl physics at Augsburg. Paulson spends one- fourth of his year at ORAU: during the minimester he taught a session on photons. Augsburg students have been attending these minimesters for ten years. Sixty- three Auggies, with majors such as chemistry. biology and physics. have taken part in this special educational opportunity. One of these students, Cyndi Landowski, a 1981 graduate, who took part in a minimester in 1981, is now employed by ORAU. She began work there on September 8, 1982, as a health physics technician working in Professional Training Programs courses. Prior to joining the ORAU staff she was a physics laboratory instructor at Augsburg. She assisted Augsburg students studying at ORAU this past January. — Karen Casanova Public Relations lntern Stenshoels publish family history book Few people are as dedicated to tracing their family‘s history and genealogy as are Professor Myles Stenshoel and his family. Stenshoel, his wife Eunice, and their son Eric have written four books in the last six years about their ancestors. The latest, “Ole og Kari fra Sognefjord: A family story," is a compilation of intensive and thorough research done b the family. As the introduction to the k states, “Genealogical studies and family research tend to be addictive." The division of labor among the family during the writing of the book was quite helpful. Most of the descriptive writing was done by Eric. Myles, professor of political science at Augsburg, was respon- sible for the layout, maps, and charts. Eunice was the main researcher and cor- respondent. The Stenshoels credited Eric's proficiency in Norwegian as the starting place for their research. The book itself is intriguing. It‘s the type that you can't put down once ou‘ve picked it up. Laden with photograp and charts, the book also contains such in- teresting information as the meanings of the given names of each of the ancestors. The book is seventy pages of well- researched information and is divided into four main parts: the family story, genealogical charts, a family directory, and maps and features The family direc- tory lists 1,281 persons, 913 of whom are direct descendants. Though most of us have not put such ex- tensive time and energy into tracing our roots, we do have the chance to read this extraordinary account of one family’s history and admire the excellent research done by the Stenshoel family.
