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 . .- .

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 . McNeflyhas already applied some of her ideas in working on a seminar. “Finders Keepers." at Augsburg for college faculty and corporate personnel. The seminar explored educational values and skills that are given the highest priority in the hiring process. employer perception of liberally educated applicants. and promotion of liberal learning in the workplace. — Barb Ari'cson Public Relations Intern on changing nude and the role of education in society and bus-non Wilson Looming II located in Eden Prairie MN (Photo by Keith Rick-bought Commencement participation for Lowell Brandt campus pastor for nine yours bmanu- .i family affair in 1982 when his Wife Linda graduated tvoni Auqxtuuq Ytu-u (LIlltllHI‘l s miiuo l\ Anna [Photo by Jane Helmke) Farewell and thank you — Pastor Brandt "For everything there is a season. and a timofor every purpose under heaven.

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.

Much of thematerials are written in the Norwegian language. making cataloging difficult Futcher's addition to the library's staff last September brought the first trained archivist to Augsburg in more than a decade. She is working with a history intern to set up procedures for future work in the archives. Her job is to provide enough guidance and direction during her limited time here to help maintain a continuing effort to protect and preserve Augsburgrelics. “There's so much more I wish I could do. but time will run out when I leave in May." said Futcher. 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. Their use as storage alternatives to the cardboard boxes some publications currently arc in is very important to the prevention of deterioration. Augsburg's archives have a history of llll‘ll’ own. Originally. they found their home under the front steps of Old Main because it was the only room on campus available that could he considered fireproof The only access to the room was through a three-fmt square opening in the wall between it and the basement of the building There wasa dirt floor. When ScienCe Hall was constructed in the 19505, the archives were moved to a small room where they stayed until fall of 1955 when the George Sverdrup library was completed This room was properly fireproof. and milk-glass windows were installed to lessen the effects of light intrusion.

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.

Monday through Friday many of Augsburg's new adult students work in a variety of roles. lrene Stemmer is an office and business manager at an insurance company and a member of a suburban city council. Warren Kamps is a lead engineering administrator at a major metropolitan company. 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. Warren Kamps. lead en ineering administrator at Honeywell an studying business administration in the Weekend College. said. "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. The students have been out in the work force. and came to the class with specific goals in mind " The appearance of weekend colleges across the nation is. in part. a response to the greater freedom and mobility in society. Women are taking more competitive r016 in the job market than ever before. and they need the educational background necessary to stay competitive. “My classes are predominantly women." said Stemmer. "Women arc trying to develop their potential Weekend college is a good way (ll doing this it allows us to continue our work and activities in other areas. and still strive for growth in new areas " chkcnd College is one important adaptation to meet the greater flexibility and mobility in socrcty.

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. Minneapolis, Minnesota Art Norman Holen, professor. was awarded the Rachel Leah Armour award and prize money for his standing terra cotta ﬁgure, The competition was sponsored by the Allied Artists of America. The exhibit was shown at the National Arts Club in New York City.

Richard Sar ent. associate professor, had an article pu lished in the fall 1982 issue of the Minnesota English Journal, entitled “A Family Therapy Approach to the Taming of the Shrew." History Khin Khin Jensen, professor. has been informed that the manuscript that she and her husband co-authored, “Cross Cultural Encounters: the Newly Arrived Asian Student," has been accepted for publication in the College Student Journal later this year.

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.

He was invited by Lutheran World Relief to attaid a Seminar in India on the Rural Poor." Upon his return to w, be recounted his experimces marveled at changa which have oc- curred in the'last decade. The advance of the population explo- sion was the ﬁrst change which made a distinct impression on Batalden. a 1935 graduate of Augsburg who has worked at the college for nearly 50 years. At the time that he lived in India and Bangladesh. India was crowded with approximately 600 million t:ipIe—now it has over 700 million. Bangla h. about two-thirds the size of Minnesota (which has a population of 4 million). has over 90 million residents. "In other words. if all the people in the world were crowded into the contiguous states of the USA. we would have the same crowded conditions found in Bangladesh today.“ commented Batalden, Though a great emphasis has been put on family planning education. and many families limit their offspring to two. the population problem is still a concern due to the increased number of children surviving now and people in general living longer because of improved health care. Batalden found that many progressive changes had been made. Speaking on Lutheran World Relief. he said. “I had worked in their programs in Asia. and had helped to set up some of their projects and offices. so I wanted to see what had hap penedtolhem." Great im rovements have been made in the fieI of health care. In many communities. there is a health worker who has been “given special training and a medical kit containing some medicines and equipment for dealing with colds and other simple ailments, and for providing midwife services." On the next level. there is a mobile unit with van, nurse, and sometimes a doctor. The highest level of the health care system involves the trans- portation of severely sick people to a near y hospital or medical center. Batalden International adviser travels to Far East on tie-building tour Church. alumni and other Augsburg and international educational contacts were visited in January 1983 by Mimi and Einar Johnson, The Johnsons traveled to the Far East on a recruitment trip for students from East and Southeast Asian countries. Mimi is the international student adviser and an associate professor/chair of the Foreign Language Department at Augsburg. She was accompanied by her husband. Einar. a professor emeritus of education. The Johnsons were pleased to be able to represent Augsburg and thought the administration of the college was to be complemented on the decision to go forward with this recruitment effort, "Alumni in the areas wc visited have been urging Augsburg to do this for some years. Some alumni have been unhappy with Augsburg‘s “benign ncglcct‘ of them and have sent their children to other Lutheran colleges in the United States Other ALC colleges actively recruit in Hong Kong. Korea and Japan." said Mimi Johnson The mis5ion statement of the college emphasizes diversity in education and student body. "Attention to our diversity in the past is witnessed by the number and depth of our ties to the Christian people of East and Southeast Asia through several generations of missionaries and teachers and a number of alumni. former students and faculty in these areas “ “The tradition of having international students as part of thc student body at Augsburg (currently about 2 rccnti needs to be strengthene " As international and American student relations are developed.

Abner Batalden stated that. “the trend....to bring health care to all villages and using hospitals only as emergencies require. is bringing results.“ Other wise developments resulted from this system. including farmeis‘ clubs and women‘s clubs. The farmers were assisted in “seed selection. irrigation. composting. artificial insemination.“ and other areas to improve their agricultural output, “I was amazed to see the progress which has been made toward self-sufficiency in food production." Batalden commented. One interesting development is the im ct of change on the status of women in vil age society. “Their servica. which paid them just a pittance per month, was so valued that their status was dramatically improved In a number of cases they ithe womcni were sought out for special leadership roles In onc case one of these harajan Ioutcaslc' health workch was elected mayor of a village, Moreover. these \vomcn took on new importance in their own homes. and amongst their neighbors." While there. he shared experiences with many others from such places as Kenya. Peru. Bangladesh. Somalia. India. Sudan. Tanzania. and Togo “Fuctional education programs. evaluation methods. distribution of land to the landless. and other occupations for the poor were dis- cussed." Summing up his experiences.

He was the first reci ient of the Distinguished Service Award or “signifi- cant contributions to sociology within the state of Minnesota during an exceptional career dedicated to the discipline." The award criteria included: For pursuing an extended line of inquiry involving faculty and students in Min- nesota: Professor Torstenson was intensel in- terested in urban development bo in Minnesota and in Norway and he con- ducted studies in both settings over the years. He founded the Center for Social Research at Augsburg. involving students and faculty in studies of urban neighborhoods and their needs. Several publications resulted from this work and at least one of those was instrumental in a model urban development and neighborhood organization in St, Paul. For contributions to a Program of Instruc- tion in Sociology in Minnesota: Professor Torstenson founded the Sociology ma‘or at Augsburg in the early 19505 and c ired its Department of Sociology for more than 20 years.

These majors are computer seience and management information systems 4M15‘ The computer science major will expand the existing minor that has been in place for the past two years. A minor will also be available in the fall in management information systems. National consultants worked with Augsburg faculty in the daign of the programs for the new majors Both majors will require a liberal arts course background as a base for specialized study. in addition to developing these computer science majors and minors. Augsburg faculty have integrated the use of computers into most of the college‘s 20 academic departments Faculty for the new majors include seven instructors from existingdepartments Larry Copm. assistant professor of mathematics at Augsburg, will teach courses in the majors. in support of the addition of the programs to the curriculum. Copes said "A com uter science major is consistent with a li ral arts education. in the traditional ‘liberating' sense of the term; it is a major tool for helping the development of students‘ thinking abilities. Moreover. the inﬂux of students with computer interests should benefit the entire campus as we move toward increased computer usage " The computer science major was initiated by a proposal from the Mathematics Department and was passed by the faculty in early February. Within the proposal computer science is described as "an area of study that is independent of. but related to, mathematics. Computer science is the study of computer systems. which includes both phvslcal devices and computer irstructiorLs The implications of the use of computers for smiety an‘ a pervasrve component of computer science The management information systems major and minor were initiated by a proposal from Amin Kader. associate professor of bisiness administration. and the Business Department. and was also passed by the faculty in February The program is described as .1 major to teach students “information systems concepts and processes within the contexts of organization functions and management knowledge. and technical information systems knowledge It plans substantial emphaSis on the ability to dovclop. implement and manage an inforiii.itioii system within an organization Loss emphasis on the technical aspects of tho hardware and software makes the proposed major cons‘istcnt with the liberal arts philosophy " New courses will he added to the college curriculum to facilitate lhc new majors However, the costs for those will be minimal The present compiitcr equipment is enough to initiate lht'St‘ two programs. but in the future niorc equipment may need to be added Students will use the Computer t‘cnior‘s l‘l‘l‘ tlrm system ivilli terminals :it St‘\t‘r.’ll campus locations The college also has .-\pplc ll microcomputers and iriicropriiilcrs.

He was a founder of the Higher Education Consortium for Urban Affairs. Students are enthusiastic about his teaching. For facilitating programs relevant to the Application of Sociology in Minnesota: His urban studies programs directly contributed to urban development pro- grams in Minnesota which are seen as models for development elsewhere. Many of his students have benefited from his work and gained an appreciation for the application of sociological methods and theory. He interpreted and used his Sociology perspectives in lectures to various segments of the public regarding significant as ts of their lives. He serves on many Ioca and regional committees. Torstenson's career began as a 1932 elementary school teacher in Minnesota’s Lae Qui Parle County at a one-room coun- try school. “1 witnessed first-hand the im- pact of the Great Depression. plus a devastating drought upon the lives of families and children in that vulnerable rural comunity." “It transformed my prior preoccupation with personal ethics to a much more comprehensive concern for social ethics,” stated Torstenson in his friend‘s trial probably had some influenece: it pro ably made me take a more assertive stand. But I have always been concerened with women and children as victims. so it was an easy position for me to move into.“ “The first case I ever prosecuted was that of a young black retarded female. who was deathly afraid of the prosecutor. She had been raped. and she was afraid of all men. The prosecutor was a middleaged white man. and she wouldn't talk to him. so he asked me to talk with her. The girl didn't have any problems with me." “After that. I ended up getting a lot of sexual assault casesl Sexual assault cases are difficult to prosecute. and many people don‘t want to take them. Once the police departments found out I would prosecute. they'd make sure that I got the complicated cases.“ “Prosecuting sexual assault cases is so hard. Perhaps it's because the conse quences are so heavy. Fortunately. I never lost a case. I had one hung jury. The effect that had on the girl was that she felt that people didn‘t believe her. It takes 1‘2- 2 years for the trial to be completed. There is a tremendous pressure all through that time. Sometimes the victim needs to go into treatment to work through things. In incest cases. one or more family members might be in prison. another in treatment. another in a foster home. and they are just beginning to understand what was going on between them. Sometimes they never do. There‘s always a hidden price. Some people keep paying that for a long time. Some people make it. and others don‘t.“ Despite the growing numbers of women entering the legal profession. Alexander has still found that men have difficulty accepting women in the role as a prosecutor. "As a prosecutor. you really have to take a strong stand. Many men don‘t expect women to be that assertive." She laughed softly and added. “Oddly enough. some women have difficulty with it, too. Since I received this appointment, I have spoken to a few different women's groups. A couple of times I've been asked. ‘Don‘t you think you‘re moving a little too fast? Don‘t you want to take some time out and have children?‘ I told them that I want to do everything. I mean, I know I can‘t do everything. but I want to try to do as much as I can with the life I have. I want to take on new challenges." Then she reminisced for a minute. “You know. one of the things I remember about Augsburg was the diversity of people there. There was one woman we graduated with who was 56 years old. She would always ask us why we did this or that. and she‘d keep trying to tell us how important that schooling was. It wasn't something we really understood at the time ~ you don‘t always hear it at 18 or 19. But it brings a kind of wisdom later." Alexander married her husband. a banker. about a year ago. They live in south Minneapolis, a few blocks away from where she grew up. Her family was “very happy" with her recent appointment. Pam laughed and added, “When I was in law school. I told my Dad that I was going to be a judge. He told me. “Well. let's worry about being a trial lawyer first." When I told him I was appointed municipal court judge. he smiled and said. “honey. I know you told me you were going to be a judge. but I thought you meant a couple years from now." — Barb Arveson Student Staff“ riter ‘ s‘ . , tothe“ " ofMi ‘ at the October 23, 1982 award ceremony at the University of Mankato.

Torstenson taught part time at Augsburg and became involved in the Peace Move- ment. “I participated in establishing a cooperative farm community near the city for the purpose of exploring alternatives for a conflict-oriented competitive culture. This led to employment until 1947 with Midland Cooperatives as an educational director and community organizer. While completing graduate study for a doctorate (1958) in sociology at the Univer- sity of Minnesota. Torstenson again work- ed at Augsburg on developing its academic programs in social work and sociology. His community commitments included presi— dent of the Greater Minnea lis Joint Committee for Equal Opportumty and Ma- jor Arthur Naftalin’s Commission on Human Relations. chairing the Educa- tional Sub-Committee. Torstenson developed a collegewide Metro-Urban Studies Program which led to the establishment of an inter-college Higher Education Consortium for Urban Affairs (IECUA). HECUA still administersglrl-lo- grams initiated by Torstenson inclu ' g the Metropolitan Urban Studies Term in the ’l‘win Cities and a Scandinavian Urban Studies Term at the University of Oslo. He was the first president and among the founders of I-[ECUA. These experiences in Torstenson’s academic career were inﬂuential in his development of an educational philosophy in sociology. “Throughout my teaching career. I have always perceived sociology as a humanistic discipline. providing a basis for an informed humane response to the disruptive and distintegrative social problems of a turbulent world." Torstenson noted in his presentation at Mankato that the participant-observer strategy for sociological research was In- fluential in his program development at Augsburg. “It had an important influence on the development of our field placement program in social work education at Augsburg and in the development of our in- ternship programs for students majoring in metro-urban studies." In his resentation, Torstenson also comment on “the fate of sociology in the 1980s.“ He ended with the comment that “It would be a tragedy if we were to allow such sociological innocence to blot out one of the most central contributiom of sociology to social consciousness — ‘the discovery of society.‘ " Torstenson continues to serve both the community and the college as a professor emeritus of sociology at Augsburg. — Kay Cad y Now Editor Augsburg Now Augsburg College Now provides infor- mation for alumni. parents. friends. businesses and churches.

His primary responsibility is recruitment and retention of black students. He replaces Valerie Geaither who resigned from the position last fall. Minor wants increased admission, retention and graduation of black students from Augsburg College. This will be accomplished through a combination of program development. counseling, teaching and special event activities. Next fall Minor will teach a course in Afro» American Studies. Coordination of Black History Month events in February was Minor‘s initial concern. “This is a month of events that are important in recognizing the pride and achievement in black history." Minor will seek to increase the percentage of minority students on the Augsburg campus. Augsburg has minority enrollment of about 4 percent. "Being an international learning center, this college should be closer to the national percentage of 10 to 15 percent black students.“ said Minor. Minor has 11 years of experience in career development and academic advising. In 1967 he went to the University of Minnesota on a football scholarship where he was named to the Big Ten All- Academic Team. Dean's list and Williams Scholar.

Alumni phone response generous, dollars marked for scholarships Generous alumni response to this year's Phonothon is expected to yield gifts equivalent to the college share of finanr cial aid for one out of every three or four 1983-84 Augsburg freshmen. Each year the college must raise money to match and supplement scholar- ship funds provided by government and other outside sources. This year‘s Phono- thon is dedicated to that purpose. Over 2000 calls have been made to seek gifts totaling at least $100,000 by the close of the fiscal year on May 31. according to Jeroy Carlson. Annual Fund Director. The Annual Fund includes gifts through matching programs of employers and Lutheran Brotherhood's IMPACT program. “More alumni are contributing and people are giving more than in the past." Carlson said. "which is vital if we are to replace funds lost by governmental cuts in aid available to students." The average financial aid for fresh- men this year was $4.l90 from all sources. The average amount awarded in college scholarships and grants was $1.217 per student receiving financial aid.
