CHARACTERISTICS
0.F- T H E
EDUCATIONAL
or over a century,
Augsburg College has
emphasized intellectual
freedom in the search for
knowledge. Augsburg's academic program builds on a
liberal arts foundation to help
students understand the past,
interpret the present, and plan
for the future.
F
As in the weekday program,
Augsburg Weekend College
ofSers students a unique
combination of the liberal arts
disciplines and professional
education. Our goals are to
help students develop the
intellectual skills and attitudes
to be lifelong learners,
increase their competence in
selected areas of professional
work, and accomplish a higher
level of personal growth.
HISTORY
OF
WEEKEND
COLLEGE
In Fall of 1982 Augsburg
began Weekend College
under the directorship of
Dr. Rick Thoni. At that time
Weekend College had three
majors, 69 students, and
offered eight courses in the
first term.
Today with more than 1,100
students and 12 majors,
Augsburg's Weekend College
is the largest program of its
kind in the state. Faculty in
Weekend College are full-time
Augsburg professors as well
as adjunct professionals from
the work world. The Weekend
College student body has
become involved in student
government, and Weekend
College students participate in
academic and extracurricular
activities such as the student
newspaper, travel seminars,
the Weekend College Student
Union and the Weekend
College Advisory Network
(WECAN).
Augsburg Weekend College
continues to grow and develop
to meet the changing needs of
the adult and nontraditional
student of today.
PURPOSE
Augsburg Weekend College
provides an educational alternative to adults who desire
college experience but who
work or have other commitments during the week. It is a
means by which men and
women may earn a baccalaureate degree, gain skills for
professional advancement,
prepare for career change, or
pursue a personal interest in
one or more areas of the
liberal arts.
MISSION
OF THE
COLLEGE
Students who graduate from
Augsburg are well prepared to
make a difference in the
world. They stand as testaments to the College motto,
"Education for Service," and
to the Mission of the College:
To develop future leaders of
service to the world by
providing high quality educational opportunities which are
based in the liberal arts and
shaped by the faith and values
of the Christian Church, by
the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an
intentionally diverse campus
community.
THEADULTAS LEARNER A COMMUNITYOF
LEARNERS
Augsburg Weekend College is
designed to meet the needs
and preferences of adult
learners. The program is based
on the assumption that the
men and women who enroll in
Weekend College will be
mature, self-disciplined and
well-motivated adult learners
who seek a balance of classroom experience and
individualized study. Each
course is therefore divided
into periods of concentrated
on-campus study separated by
time for independent study
and class preparation.
Essential to the goals of
Augsburg's Weekend College is
participation in a community of
adult learners. Learning can be
enhanced when the student is
involved in a stable community
that provides opportunity and
encouragement to become
involved in interaction both in
and out of the classroom. This
community will be enriched by
the presence of both men and
women with a variety of work
and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of community
interaction, Augsburg encourages Weekend College students
to make use of college facilities

sors. Most faculty hold the
doctorate or other terminal
degree and all consider their
teaching to be the focus of their
activity. Faculty are involved in
social, professional and a variety
of research activities, but see
these activities as supporting
their teaching. They are actively
involved in an exciting faculty
development program which
introduces them to current
thought in many fields but
especially in teaching techniques and theories.
Augsburg's size and small
classes encourage its tradition
of close involvement between
professors and students.
Faculty act as academic
advisers and participate regularly in campus activities.
History
Augsburg College was
founded in 1869 in Marshall,
Wisconsin, and moved to
Minneapolis in 1872. The
name Augsburg College and
Seminary changed in 1963
when the Lutheran Free
Church merged with The
American Lutheran Church.
Location
Augsburg's 23-acre campus is
in the heart of the Twin Cities
metropolitan area, only blocks
from downtown Minneapolis
and the intersection of Interstate
Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent
to the campus are the Riverside
Medical Center, the West Bank
campus of the University of
Minnesota and the Mississippi
River parkways.
Campus
Augsburg's campus consists
of 15 major buildings which
include student housing
towers, the College Center,
main academic and administrative halls, the Library,
Music Hall and the Foss
Center for Worship, Drama
and Communication.
Accessibility
We have made a major effort
to become one of the most
accessible campuses in the
region. Our skyway-tunnel
system lets you reach any of 10
major buildings without going
outside. In addition to building
changes, we have a student-run
program to increase awareness
and provide extra help for
students with disabilities.
Church Affiliation
Augsburg is a college of The
Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America. Although a strong
plurality of students are Lutheran,
18 percent represent other
Protestant denominations and
2 1 percent represent the Roman
Catholic Church. Several other
affiliations are represented
among students and faculty.
POLICIES
It is the policy of Augsburg
College not to discriminate on
the basis of race, color, creed,
religion, sexual or affectional
preference, national or ethnic
origin, age, marital status, sex
or status with regard to public
assistance or disability, as
required by Title IX of the
1972 Educational Amendments
or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended,
in its admissions policies,
education programs, activities
and employment practices.

EXPERIENTIAL
EDUCATION PROGRAMS
Through Internships,
Cooperative Education and
Community Service, Augsburg
students integrate and expand
their liberal arts education by
embracing the worlds of work
and service. These programs
link employers, community
organizations and the academic program in a way that
enriches and expands a
student's educational experience and personal
development. An underlying
assumption is that a liberal
arts education is an effective
preparation for careers and
citizenship. The integration of
"knowing and doing" adds
breadth and depth to the
liberal arts curriculum and
assists students in making
more informed academic,
career and personal decisions.
The College's metropolitan
location makes possible a
wide range of opportunities.
Students have gained valuable
learning experiences in small
and mid-size companies, large
corporations, non-profit organizations, schools, government
agencies and communitybased organizations.

credit is a carefully planned
work-based learning experience
where a student focuses on
specific academic and individual learning objectives. A
learning agreement plan negotiated with a faculty supervisor and work supervisor,
outlining the internship objectives, strategies and evaluation
methods - is required. An
academic internship is
approved, supervised and evaluated by a faculty member in the
department in which the student
wishes to earn the Internship
credit. Upper Division intemships are numbered 399 and
Lower Division internships are
numbered 199.
Students also earn money to
help defray educational costs
while gaining important onthe-job experience. Job
placements typically are parttime during the academic year
and full-time in the summer.
Cooperative Education jobs
are flexible and can begin and
end anytime. Cooperative
Education is not credited in

encouraged to complete at least
one Internship for credit in
conjunction with their
Cooperative Education participation. Cooperative Education
is available to Augsburg

one term see the section of the
catalog under grading.
Augsburg's Service-Learning
program combines response to
human needs in the community
with a conscious awareness
and understanding of issues,
reflection and educational
growth. Augsburg students
learn from and about the
community and society in
which they live by participating in orientation sessions,
direct service-learning activities and seminars or class
discussions. Through direct
service, such as volunteering at
a homeless shelter, tutoring,
building housing for low
income people or working with
environmental groups, students
engage in a dynamic and interactive educational approach
which employs reciprocal
learning between the student(s)
and the community. Service
Learning includes courseimbedded community service,
tutoring, internships, cooperative education, and a wide
range of volunteer options.

sciences, the liberal arts
perspectives introduce students
to the breadth and complexity
of knowledge and culture.

students with the Christian
tradition and encourage them
to reflect upon the importance
and meaning of spirituality in
their lives. Recreation courses

of the Registrar before the
deadline (published in the
Weekend College Catalog
Supplement). Dropping a class

and objectives, required text@),
course schedule, grading criteria
and assignments. A syllabus is
especially important in Weekend
College because it advises the
student of any assignment due
the first class weekend. Students
are responsible for picking up
the course syllabus at the times
published in The Weekender,
the Weekend College informational publication.
EVALUATIONAND
C RADI NG
Student achievement in
courses is measured primarily
by final examinations. Shorter
tests, written papers, oral
reports and other types of
evaluation also are used.
Most courses are offered with
grading options - traditional
grading on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale or
the Pass/No Credit system, in
which P means a grade of 2.0
or better and N means no
credit and a grade of less than
2.0. Students who choose the
PIN option are cautioned:
In order to receive a grade
of P, a student must achieve
at least a grade of 2.0.
Some graduate and professional schools do not look
favorably on a large number
of P-graded courses, or rank
each as a "C".
P-graded courses do not
count toward the requirement that 14 traditionally
graded course credits be
earned at Augsburg in order
to be considered for graduation with distinction.
Transfer students should be
especially aware of this
requirement.
See PIN limitations under
Graduation Requirements on
page 28.
Note: Certain courses are
offered on one grading system
only (e.g., Lifetime Sports are
graded PIN only).
In courses where there is a
choice, students will be graded
on the traditional system
unless they indicate on their
registration that they wish to
use the PIN grading option.
Any changes in choice of
grading system must be made
according to dates published
each term. A fee is charged for
any changes made after the
first five days of classes.
NUMBER
GRADES
Number grades are used with
these definitions:
4.0 Achieves highest
standards of excellence
3.0 Achieves above basic
course standards
2.0 Meets basic standards for
the course
1.0 Performance below basic
course standards
0.0 Unacceptable performance (no credit for the
course)
Grades of P (Pass) or N (No
credit) are not computed in the
grade point average.
An incomplete grade (I) may
be given only in the case of
extreme emergency. To
receive an incomplete grade, a
student must receive permission of the instructor; must file
a form stating the reasons for
the request, the work required
to complete the course, the
plan and date for completing
the work, and comments from
the instructor; and must gain
the approval of the Registrar.
If permission is granted, the
necessary work must be
completed in enough time to
allow evaluation of the work
by the instructor and filing of
a grade before the final day of
the following trimester. If the
work is not completed by that
date, the grade for the course
becomes a 0.0.
Internships, Independent
Studies and Directed Studies
may sometimes last longer
than one term. When this is
the case, they must be
completed by the grading
deadlines within one year
from the beginning of the first
term of registration. A grade
of X is given by the instructor
to indicate that the study is
extended. It is expected that
students given X extensions
will continue to communicate
with their instructors and
demonstrate that satisfactory
progress is being maintained.
A final grade will be issued at
the end of the term in which
the work is completed and
evaluated (but not longer than
one year). An instructor has
the option of not giving an X
where satisfactory progress is
not demonstrated.
A course in which a grade of
0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or N has been
received may be repeated for
credit. Courses in which
higher grades have been
earned may not be repeated
for credit and a grade, but may
be audited. All courses taken
and grades earned each term
remain on the academic
record. Only the credits and
grades earned the second time,
for legitimately repeated
courses, are counted toward
graduation and in the grade
point average.
AUDITINGCOURSES
Students who wish to take
courses without credit or grade
may do so by registering for
Audit (V). The charge for
auditing is listed in the current
year's Weekend College
Catalog Supplement. The
signature of the instructor is
required to register an audit.
Students who audit a course
should confer with the
instructor two weeks prior to
the beginning of the term to
determine expectations, attendance and any other
requirements. If expectations
have been met, the course will
be listed on the transcript as
having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the
course will be listed with a
grade of W (Withdrawn).
GRADEPOINTAVERAGE ACADEMIC
PROGRESS,
PROBATION
AND
The grade point average
(GPA) is based on final grades
DISMISSAL
for all work at Augsburg. It
does not include credit and
grade points for work transferred from other colleges.
Courses taken on the PIN
grading option are recorded,
but not computed in the GPA.
The formula for computing the
GPA is:
-
GPA Total grade points
divided by number of credits
taken.*
* Using traditionally graded
course credits only.
CLASSIFICATION
Students are classified in
August and at the end of the
Fall Trimester.
Sophomores - Seven credits
completed.
Juniors - 16 credits completed.
Seniors - 24 credits completed.
The College requires that
students maintain the
following cumulative grade
point averages (GPA):
Freshman - A student who
has taken fewer than seven
credits with a cumulative GPA
of 1.6 or higher
Sophomore - A student who
has taken fewer than 16
credits with a cumulative GPA
of 1.7 or higher
Junior - A student who has
taken fewer than 24 credits
with a cumulative GPA of 1.9
or higher
Senior - A student who has
taken 24 or more credits with
a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or
higher.
It should be noted that a
minimum GPA of 2.0 is
required for graduation with
certain majors requiring a
higher minimum GPA.
Students whose academic
achievement falls below these
guidelines will either be placed
on scholastic probation at the
end of the term, will be
continued on probation or, will
be dismissed from the College.
In addition, a freshman who
receives two zero grades or a
sophomore who receives three
zero grades will be considered
for probation or dismissal.
However, dismissal from the
College is not automatic. Each
case is reviewed by the
Committee on Student
Standing. Evidence of the
student's commitment to academic progress is the major
consideration in deciding
whether or not to dismiss a
student. Those on probation
who voluntarily withdraw from
the College, as well as those
who are dismissed, must have
special permission to re-enroll.
Students may be removed
from probation when the
cumulative GPA reaches the
minimum level stated above.
Students placed on probation
as freshmen for having earned
two zero grades may be
removed from probation if
their classification changes to
sophomore, if they have not
earned additional zero grades,
and if their cumulative GPA
reaches 1.7. Students placed
on probation as sophomores
for having earned three zero
grades may be removed from
probation if their classification
changes to junior and their
cumulative GPA reaches 1.9.
The College reserves the right
to dismiss any student who
does not meet the guidelines
stated above. Once a student is
dismissed, he or she may
appeal the decision within 10
days to the Committee on
Student Standing.
DEAN'S
LIST
The Dean's List is compiled
after each trimester, listing
students whose grade point
average for a trimester is 3.5
or better. Students must be
full-time (a minimum two full
course credits for a Weekend
College student), graded on
the traditional grading system,
with no incompletes in courses
offered for credit. If permission is given by the student, an
announcement is sent to the
hometown newspaper of each
student on the Dean's List.
GRADUATION
WITH
DISTINCTION
Graduation with Distinction is
determined as follows:
Summa cum laude - 3.8 to
4.0 cumulative GPA
Magna cum laude - 3.6 up to
but not including 3.8 cumulative GPA
Cum laude - 3.3 up to but
not including 3.6 cumulative
GPA
To qualify for graduation with
distinction, transfer students
must have completed two
years (14 traditionally graded
credits) of work at Augsburg.
ASSESSMENT
OF
PREVIOUS
LEARNING
(APL) PROGRAM
Augsburg College recognizes
that learning can and does take
place in many life situations.
Some of this learning may be
appropriate for credit recognition within the disciplines that
compose the academic
program of a liberal arts
college. The Assessment of
Previous Learning (APL)
program at Augsburg
provides a means by which a
student's previous learning,
other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented
for examination for possible
credit toward the completion
of a baccalaureate degree.
Not all learning from life
experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition at
a liberal arts college. Such
learning must meet two essential criteria: 1) it is relevant to
course work in a field of study
within the Augsburg liberal
arts curriculum and 2) it can
be objectively demonstrated
either by comprehensive
examination or committee
evaluation.
The APL program at
Augsburg provides several
means by which students may
have their previous learning
assessed for credit recognition.
The following is a brief
description of each of these
means of assessment:
The College Level
Examination Program
(CLEP)
This is a series of standardized
tests which have been developed by the College Board
and are offered to students for
a small fee at regional testing
centers. (The regional testing
center for this area is the
University of Minnesota.)
Students who score at or
above the 65th percentile on a
subject examination may
receive academic credit for
that subject at Augsburg
College. Additional information about CLEP tests is
available from the Office of
the Registrar.
Departmental
Comprehensive Exams
These are available for students
to use in obtaining credit for
previous learning if the
following conditions are met:
There is a departmental
instrument available for the
subject area in question.
There is a faculty member
designated by the department to administer the
exam.
The Registrar approves the
student's request to take the
exam. Credit for departmental exams is available on
a passlno credit basis only,
and there is a charge per
exam of $485.00 for a full
course credit.
The Credit Assessment
Program (CAP)
This is a credit assessment
alternative in which a faculty
committee completes a credit
evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the student.
The faculty committee is
composed of a representative
from the Office of the
Registrar and two faculty
members from fields of study
directly related to the student's
previous learning.
Informational meetings and
consultation are provided for
students who wish to prepare a
portfolio of previous learning
for credit assessment. This
may include a personal
meeting with the CAP
committee. In completing the
evaluation of a student's
previous learning, the CAP
committee applies the
following criteria:
There is documentable
evidence of a cognitive
component in the previous
learning experience that
involved prescribed andlor
systematic study of content
material found within liberal
arts course work.
The learning has been objectively verified by individuals
in addition to the presenting
student.
The learning lends itself to
both qualitative and quantitative measurement.
The learning relates well to
the student's educational
goals.
The learning and skills
involved are current and
could be used at the present
time.
Students may apply for the
credit assessment process after
completing at least four
courses of academic work at
Augsburg College with a
cumulative Augsburg GPA of
at least 2.5. It is strongly
recommended that the process
not be used when four or
fewer courses remain for graduation. There is an application
deposit to initiate the credit
assessment process, and a
charge for each semester
credit applied to the student's
transcript if credit is approved.
Transcript credit will be
granted on the basis of
semester credits, and the total
number of credits granted will
be divided by four to determine the number of course
credits applied to graduation.
These credits will be recorded
with the course number of
CAP 2xx. Application of this
credit toward the Liberal Arts
Perspective requirements,
Upper Division requirements,
and academic majors and
minors may be subsequently
addressed by the departments
involved in response to a
formal request by the student.
Maximum Credit Accepted
for Previous Learning
While Augsburg College
recognizes the validity of
learning that takes place
outside the traditional classroom, this learning must be
placed in the context of formal
study in campus-based liberal
arts courses. Therefore,
Augsburg places a maximum
of eight courses (one-fourth of
a baccalaureate degree) on
transcript credit that is
obtained through previous
experiential learning. In
compiling the eight courses of
credit for previous experiential
learning, the student may use
any combination of the three
assessment processes available
in the APL program: CLEP
exams, departmental exams
and credit granted through
CAP Committee assessment.
Lifetime Sports Assessment of Previous
Learning (APL) Program
Students in the Weekend
College may complete one or
both of the two required graduation skills of Lifetime
Sports through the APL
process. The Lifetime Sports
graduation skills are non-academic courses and no credit is
earned by their completion;
however, fulfillment of two
Lifetime Sports is necessary to
graduate. There is a fee for
each Lifetime Sport completed
by APL. Additional information about Lifetime Sport APL
is available from the Weekend
College Office.

(see page 55 for details).
ACCOUNTING
- ACC
The major in accounting
prepares students for professional careers in a wide
variety of accounting-related
positions. This major has two
tracks: General Accounting
and Professional Accounting.
The General Accounting
specialization is adequate for a
wide variety of positions. The
Professional Accounting track
includes two specializations:
public accounting and
managerial accounting. The
public accounting spccialization is recommended for
positions with CPA firms. The
managerial accounting specialization is recornmended for
positions with large or rapidlygrowing companies.
Thc two professional specializations rclate to two
professional dcsignations: the
CPA and the CMA. A CPA
(Ccrtificd Public Accountant)
focuses on cxtcrnal reporting;
a CMA (Ccrtificd Management
Accountant) focuscs on
internal reporting. The public
accounting specialization
includes the materials emphasized on the CPA exam; the
managerial specialization
includes the materials emphasized on the CMA exam.
Designations have an experi-
ence requirement in addition
to passing the national exam.
Under the rules of the
Minnesota State Board of
Accountancy, Accounting
majors in the public accounting
specialization are qualified to
sit for the CPA examination
during their last semester.

COMMUNICATION
SPC
Our quality of life, both
personally and professionally,
depends in large part upon the
quality of our communication.
A Communication major at
Augsburg is designed to
enhance understanding of
communication in a variety of
contexts and to improve
communication skills.
Since careers in communication
demand a broad educational
background, the Department
strongly encourages a second
major or two minors in fields
such as business, economics,
English, history, international
relations, political science,
psychology, religion, social
work or sociology.
The Augsburg Communication
major focuses on competency
in both speech and writing, as
well as effective use of media.
Since the study and practice of
communication is grounded in
both the humanities and the
social sciences, majors are
encouraged to include such
related subjects as aesthetics,
ethics, philosophy, logic, literature, statistics and research
methods in their programs.
All Communication majors
must complete a core group of
seven required courses, supplemented by five electives in one
of the following concentrations: public relations and
advertising, marketing communication, human relations, or
supervisory management.
Prospective majors should meet
with a departmental adviser as
early as possible to design an
approved major program,
preferably by the end of the
sophomore year. Majors in
Communication are candidates
for the Bachelor of Arts degree.

This bulletin is a supplement to the Augsburg College Catalog and is published for the convenience of
Augsburg Weekend College students . Weekend College is a program of Augsburg College and is subject
to the policies and provisions as stated in the Augsburg College Catalog.
INTRODUCTION TO AUGSBURG WEEKEND COLLEGE
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
PURPOSE
Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults who
desire college experience but who work or have other commitments during the
week. I t is a means by which men and women may earn a bachelor's degree, gain
skills for professional advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a
personal interest in one or more areas of the liberal arts.
EDUCATIONAL MISSION
For over a century Augsburg College has emphasized intellectual freedom in the
search for knowledge. Our academic program builds on a liberal arts foundation to
help students understand the past, interpret the present, and plan for the future.
THE ADULT AS STUDENT
The Augsburg Weekend College program is designed to meet the needs and
preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the assumption that the
men and women who enroll in Weekend College will be mature, self-disciplined and
well-motivated adult learners who seek a balance of classroom experience and
individualized study. Each course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated
on-campus study separated by time for independent study and class preparation.
ALTERNATE WEEKENDS
To accommodate this format for learning, classes meet on alternate weekends
for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday
afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each class selected by the student involves
commitment to one of these four class periods. Weekend College students may
take from one to four different courses by attending class every other weekend.
COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS
Essential to the goals of Augsburg Weekend College is participation in a
community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the student is
involved in a stable community that provides opportunity and encouragement to
become involved in interaction both in and out of the classroom. This community
will be enriched by the presence of both men and women with a variety of work
and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages Weekend
College students to make use of college facilities such as the library and college
center, to take the opportunity of having shared meals and coffee breaks, to
participate in optional chapel services and lunchtime seminars, and to attend other
college activities such as music and dramatic presentations and athletic events.
As in the weekday program, Augsburg Weekend College offers students a unique
combination of the liberal arts disciplines and professional education. Our goals
are to help students develop the intellectual skills and attitudes to be life-long
learners, increase their competence in selected areas of professional work, and
accomplish a higher level of personal growth.
ACCREDITATION AND AFFILIATIONS
Augsburg College is fully accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges
and Secondary Schools and The National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher
Education (Secondary and Elementary). Our programs are approved by The
American Chemical Society, The Council on Social Work Education and the
National League for Nursing. We are a member of the Associated Colleges of the
Twin Cities (ACTC), Lutheran Education Council in North America, Minnesota
Private College Council, National Association for Music Therapy, Inc., and are
registered with the Minnesota Higher Education Coordinating Board (HECB).
FACULTY
Augsburg College prides itself on its highly qualified faculty. Members of the
faculty serve as academic advisers to students who are in the pre-major stage of
planning as well as to students in declared major fields.
LIBRARY
Students and faculty use a carefully selected library of some 138,000 volumes
plus audio-visual materials, with access to over 5,000,000 volumes through the
Twin Cities private college consortium and Minitex.
INTERNSHIPS
Internships on and off campus are an established part of most academic programs,
helping students make career choices and develop experience in their chosen fields.
DEGREES AND MAJORS
Augsburg Weekend College allows adults to begin a bachelor's degree program or
to continue their education after beginning at another time or institution. I t also
enables adults to add a second major to an already completed college degree. The
following information outlines what is involved in completing a degree or major in

BACHELOR'S DEGREE

STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES
ASSESSMENT OF PREVIOUS LEARNING (APL) PROGRAM
Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to assist adults
in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the academic tasks of a
college education, working on their own personal development, and participating in
activities beyond the classroom. Some of these services are:
Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in many life
situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit recognition within
the disciplines that compose the academic programs of a liberal arts college. The
APL program (Assessment of Previous Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by
which a student's previous learning, other than that which is transferred from
another accredited institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit
toward the completion of a bachelor's degree.
ACADEMIC PLANNING
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert academic
advising services on an on-going basis to provide for efficient, effective planning.
Students enrolling in Weekend College who have had college experience will have
their previous work evaluated early in the admissions process.
CAREER PLANNING SERVICES
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in assessing
their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in combination with sound
academic advising from faculty in a chosen major field, can result in an appropriate
and manageable educational and career plan for the individual involved.
ACADEMIC SKILLS CENTER
This center exists to help students enhance their skills in the areas of writing,
reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic tutors in specialized
course areas are also available through the center.
COUNSELING/SUPPORT GROUPS
Individual and group activities are available to students who wish to work on a
personal growth interest or concern or who simply want to have the experience of
being in a support group of people who share some similar characteristics and/or
interests.
VETERANS OF MILITARY SERVICE
Augsburg is approved by the State Approving Agency for Veterans Training.
Veterans should consult with the Office of the Registrar about completion of the
enrollment certificate and the forwarding of other information to the Veterans
Administration. (Please refer to the Augsburg College Catalog for more detailed
information.)
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition
at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two essential criteria: (1) it is
relevant to coursework in a field of study within the Augsburg liberal arts
curriculum and (2) i t can be objectively demonstrated either by comprehensive
examination or committee evaluation.
The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which students may
have their previous learning assessed for credit recognition:
CLEP (COLLEGE LEVEL EXAMINATION PROGRAM)
Students who achieve acceptable scores in CLEP exams may receive academic
credit in Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a variety of general and
specific subject areas. For more information, contact the Admissions Office
(330-1 002)
DEPARTMENTAL ASSESSMENT
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and do not
have transcript evidence of completed work may request a departmental
assessment of previous learning. This will most often include an examination that
covers the essential components of the course involved. For more information,
contact the Registrar's Office (330-1036).
CAP (CREDIT ASSESSMENT PROCESS)
This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee completes a
credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the student. Informal
meetings and consultation are provided for students who wish to prepare a
portfolio of previous learning for credit assessment. Students may apply for CAP
after completing at least four courses of academic work at Augsburg College with
a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5. For more information, contact the Registrar's
Office (330-1036).

There are a number of ways in which students may receive assistance in meeting
the costs of Augsburg Weekend College. The Financial Aid Office will assist adults
in assessing financial need and constructing an aidlpayment program from the
following alternatives:
COMPANY TUITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS
Many companies, agencies, and corporations offer full or partial tuition assistance
to employees who participate in work-related or degree-oriented college programs.
Augsburg provides several payment plans by which employees may handle tuition
reimbursement.
PELL GRANT
This is a federal aid program, based on need, that is available to students who
take at least one course in Weekend College.
MINNESOTA PART-TIME STUDENT GRANT PROGRAM
The State of Minnesota provides an aid program, based on need,,for state
residents who take a part-time load in an eligible Minnesota institution such as
Augsburg College.
AUGSBURG TUITION GRANT
Augsburg College will provide grants and scholarships to Weekend College
students who show academic potential and have financial need.
SPECIAL GRADING PROCEDURES
Most courses are offered with grading options - traditional grading on a 4.0 to 0.0
scale or the PassINo Credit system, in which "P" means a grade of 2.0 or better
and "Nu means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0. A student may not take more
than 8 courses on a PIN grading system, with only 2 courses in the major. Students
are cautioned to use the PIN grade option with care since some graduate and
professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of P-graded courses.
An incomplete grade may be given only in the case of extreme emergency. To
receive it, a student must file a petition with the Committee on Student Standing
stating the reasons for the request, the plan and date for removing it, and comments
from the instructor. If permission is granted, the incomplete must be removed
during the following trimester, or it becomes the grade submitted by the teacher
along with the incomplete.
WITHDRAWAL FROM COLLEGE
Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are registered, since
this results in a failing grade on the official record. Cancellation of courses or
withdrawal from College must be done in the Registrar's Office. Withdrawal from
college cannot occur during final examination week unless a petition is approved
by the Student Standing Committee. Withdrawal from college and resulting adjustments in accounts are effective as of the date the completed Withdrawal from
College form is returned to the Registrar's Office.
GUARANTEED STUDENT LOAN/MINNESOTA STATE STUDENT LOAN PROGRAM
Students must carry at least one-half the normal full-time load. Eligibility for the
loan is determined by the Office of Student Financial Services. When repayment
begins, the student pays the full interest at 8%. The maximum loan is $2,500 per
year or the cost of education, whichever is less, and the aggregate undergraduate
maximum is $12,500. Loan applications are available at Augsburg, some banks,
and the Minnesota State Loan Office.

HISTORY
Augsburg College was founded in 1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin and moved to
Minneapolis in 1872. The name Augsburg College and Seminary changed in 1963
when the Lutheran Free Church merged with The American Lutheran Church.
LOCATION
Augsburg's 23 acre campus is in the heart of the Twin Cities metropolitan area,
only blocks from downtown Minneapolis and the intersection of Interstate
Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent to the campus are Fairview and St. Mary's
hospitals, the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota and the
Mississippi River parkways.
CAMPUS
Skyways, tunnels and elevators provide accessible connection between 9 of the 14
major buildings - student housing towers, College Center, main academic and
administrative halls, the Library and Music building.
ACCESSIBILITY
We have made a major effort to become one of the most accessible campuses in
the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any of the nine major buildings
without going outside. In addition to building changes, we have a student-run
program to increase awareness and provide extra help for students with disabilities.
CHURCH AFFILIATION
Augsburg is a college of The American Lutheran Church. About 51% of the
students are Lutheran, 15% other Protestant and 15% Roman Catholic. Several
other affiliations are represented among students and faculty.
NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY
Augsburg College does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, national or
ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX of the
1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
as amended in its admission policies, educational programs, activities, and
employment practices.

About Augsburg College
History
Augsburg College was founded in 1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin and moved to
Minneapolis in 1872. The name Augsburg College and Seminary changed in 1963
when the Lutheran Free Church merged with The American Lutheran Church.
Location
Augsburg's 23 acre campus is in the heart of the Twin Cities metropolitan area,
only blocks from downtown Minneapolis and the intersection of Interstate
Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent to the campus are Fairview and St. Mary's
hospitals, the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota and the
Mississippi River parkways.
Campus
Skyways, tunnels and elevators provide accessible connection between 9 of the 14
major buildings - student housing towers, College Center, main academic and
administrative halls, the Library and Music building.
Accessibility
We have made a major effort to become one of the most accessible campuses in
the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any of the nine major buildings without going outside. In addition to building changes, we have a student-run
program to increase awareness and provide extra help for students with disabilities.
Church Affiliation
Augsburg is a college of The American Lutheran Church. About 51% of the
students are Lutheran, 15%other Protestant and 15%Roman Catholic. Several
other affiliations are represented among students and faculty.
Non-Discrimination Policy
Augsburg College does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, national or
ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX of the
1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
as amended in its admission policies, educational programs, activities, and
employment practices.
Introduction to Augsburg Weekend College
Purpose
Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults who desire
college experience but who work or have other commitments during the week. It is
a means by which men and women may earn a bachelor's degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a personal interest in
one or more areas of the liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
The Augsburg Weekend College program is designed to meet the needs and
preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the assumption that the men
and women who enroll in Weekend College will be mature, selfdisciplined and
well-motivated adult learners who seek a balance of classroom experience and
individualized study. Each course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated
on-campus study separated by time for independent study and class preparation.
Alternate Weekends
To accommodate this format for learning, classes meet on alternate weekends for
three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each class selected by the student involves commitment
to one of these four class periods. Weekend College students may take from one to
four different courses by attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg Weekend College is participation in a community
of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the student is involved in a stable
community that provides opportunity and encouragement to become involved in
interaction both in and out of the classroom. This community will be enriched by
the presence of both men and women with a variety of work and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages Weekend
College students to make use of college facilities such as the library and college
center, to take the opportunity of having shared meals and coffee breaks, to participate in optional chapel services and lunchtime seminars, and to attend other college
activities such as music and dramatic presentations and athletic events.

to be arranged through the department chairperson. Students are encouraged to
take courses toward their major during the freshman and sophomore years, enroll
in Orientation to Education in the sophomore year and apply for teacher education not later than the fall of their junior year. In addition to planning their
courses with the English department chairperson, students should consult an
advisor in the Department of Education.
New licensure rules become effective July 1, 1989. Students who seek licensure
after that time will be subject to the new licensure rules.
Major for Secondary Teaching Licensure in Social Studies
Students preparing to teach social studies on the high school level must complete,
in addition to the professional requirements to be met within the Department of
Education, a competency program designed to provide a broad foundation in the
social sciences. Students must complete a major in one of five fields-Economics,
History, Political Science, Psychology or Sociology (The History Major is
described below) plus 7 courses (ECO 112 or 113, Geography, HIS 222, POL
158, PSY 105, SOC 121 and 336). Students considering a career in social studies
education should consult, as soon as possible, the Augsburg Department of
Education and the Social Studies Coordinator.
History Major: 8 courses plus 1 seminar. At least four of these courses must be
upper division. A major must have at least one course (either survey or upper
level) from each of the four areas: Ancient and Medieval; Modem Europe; US.;
and non-Western.
nglish
Those who study English believe that an intense concern for words, ideas and
images helps us understand who we are and who we can become. Writing helps us
clarify and share our thoughts. Literature helps us contemplate the pains and joys
of human existence. Through English study we see life's complexity, experience life
as some others do, and understand better the world in which-we live and work.
English relates closely to other majors. With the other arts, English is concerned
with the pleasure that comes from artistic creation and with the contemplation oE
works of art. With psychology and sociology, English is concerned with individual
and group behavior. With philosophy, English is interested in ideas and the
relation between meaning and language. With science, English is interested in discovering order and determining structures. With speech and communications,
English studies the effective use of language. With history and the other social
sciences and humanities, English studies the way people have acted and
thought at different times and in different cultures.
Major: 9 courses above 111, including 225; one course in American literature;
one course in Western literary tradition (271 or 272); and three courses in British
literature, one on literature before 1660 (for example, 331 or 438) and one that
surveys a number of writers (336, 337,423). Majors are encouraged to take
ENG 245 early in their college work and to consult their departmental advisor
regularly. A student with a double major or special program that involves considerable work in the English department should also work closely with an
advisor in the department.

Payment Options
Tuition is set on an annual basis payable in 3 equal installments at the beginning of
each Trimester. Registration is permitted only if the student's account for a previous term is paid in full as agreed. Augsburg College will not release Academic
transcripts until all student accounts are paid in full or, in the case of student loan
funds administered by the College (National Direct Student Loan), are current
according to established repayment schedules.
Augsburg Offers the Following Payment Options:
1) Trimester payments in full on day of Registration.
2) Payment Plan - Upon application and after College approval, a 3 month plan is
available each trimester.
3) Company Reimbursement - Full courses, or equivalent, which are company
reimbursed require a deposit of $100 per course reimbursed, with full payment
due within 45 days from the end of the term.
Refund Schedule
A per course tuition refund will be made on the following basis: (Students are
responsible for cancelling courses with the Registrar's Office in order to be eligible
for the tuition refund.)
Prior to the first scheduled class meeting - 100% (less a $75 Administrative Fee)
Prior to the second scheduled class meeting - 80%
Prior to the third scheduled class meeting - 60%
No refund after the third scheduled class meeting.
The refund schedule is eflecfive whefheror nof a student has allended classes.
All refunds of charges will be applied to the account of the student and all
adjustments for aid, loans, fines, and deposits, etc. will be made before eligibility
for a cash refund of any resulting credit balance is determined.
Special Grading Procedures
Most courses are offered with grading options - traditional grading on a 4.0 to 0.0
scale or the Pass/No Credit system, in which "P" means a grade of 2.0 or better
and "N" means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0. A student may not take
more than 8 courses on a PIN grading system, with only 2 courses in the major.
Students are cautioned to use the P/N grade option with care since some graduate
and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of
P-graded courses.
An incomplete grade may be given only in the case of extreme emergency. To
receive it, a student must file a petition with the Committee on Student Standing
stating the reasons for the request, the plan and date for removing it, and comments from the instructor. If permission is granted, the incomplete must be
removed during the following trimester, or it becomes the grade submitted by
the teacher along with the incomplete.
Withdrawal From College
Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are registered, since this
results in a failing grade on the official record. Cancellation of courses or withdrawal from College must be done in the Registrar's Office. Withdrawal from
college cannot occur during final examination week unless a petition is approved
by the Student Standing Committee. Withdrawal from college and resulting adjustments in accounts are effective as of the date the completed Withdrawal from
College form is returned to the Registrar's Office.
Dean's List
The Dean's List is compiled after each semester, listing students whose grade point
average for a semester is 3.5 or better, based on a minimum of two full courses, or
equivalent, graded on the traditional grading system, with no incompletes in
courses offered for credit.
Probation and Dismissal
A student will be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term if his or
her achievement is unsatisfactory. A student who has been on probation two or
more consecutive semesters is subject to dismissal at the end of the term. Dismissal
from the College is not automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on
Student Standing. A student who has a poor academic record may be strongly
advised to withdraw before the end of the term. A student who has been on
probation for two terms and withdraws from the College voluntarily must have
special permission to re-enroll.
Student Support Services
Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to assist adults
in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the academic tasks of a
college education, working on their own personal development, and participating
in activities beyond the classroom. Some of these services are:
Academic Planning
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert academic
advising services on an on-going basis to provide for efficient, effective planning.
Students enrolling in Weekend College who have had college experience will have
their previous work evaluated early in the admissions process.
Career Planning Services
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in assessing
their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in combination with sound
academic advising from faculty in a chosen major field, can result in an appropriate and manageable educational and career plan for the individual involved.
Academic Skills Center
This center exists to help students enhance their skills in the areas of writing,
reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic tutors in specialized
course areas are also available through the center.
Counseling/Support Groups
Individual and group activities are available to students who wish to work on a
personal growth interest or concern or who simply want to have the experience of
being in a support group of people who share some similar characteristics
and/or interests.
Veterans of Military Service
Augsburg is approved by the State Approving Agency for Veterans Training.
Veterans should consult with the Office of the Registrar about completion of the
enrollment certificate and the forwarding of other information to the Veterans
Administration. (Please refer to the Augsburg College Catalog for more
detailed information.)
Assessment of Previous Learning (APL) Program
Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in many life
situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit recognition within
the disciplines that compose the academic programs of a liberal arts college. The
APL program (Assessment of Previous Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by
which a student's previous learning, other than that which is transferred from
another accredited institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit
toward the completion of a bachelor's degree.
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition
at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two essential criteria: (1) it is
relevant to coursework in a field of study within the Augsburg liberal arts
curriculum and (2) it can be objectively demonstrated either by comprehensive
examination or committee evaluation.
The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which students may
have their previous learning assessed for credit recognition:
CLEP (College Level Examination Program)
Students who achieve acceptable scores in CLEP exams may receive academic
credit in Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a variety of general and
specific subject areas. For more information, contact the Admissions Oftice
(330-1001).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and do not have
transcript evidence of completed work may request a departmental assessment of
previous learning. This will most often include an examination that covers the
essential components of the course involved. For more information, contact the
Registrar's Ofice (330-1036).
CAP (Credit Assessment Process)
This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee completes a
credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the student. Informal
meetings and consultation are provided for students who wish to prepare a
portfolio of previous learning for credit assessment. Students may apply for CAP
after completing at least four courses of academic work at Augsburg College with
a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5. For more information, contact the Registrar's
Office (330-1036).

Essential to the goals of Augsburg Weekend College is participation in a
community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the
student is involved in a stable community that provides opportunity and
encouragement to become involved in interaction both in and out oi the
classroom. This community will be enriched by the presence of both
men and women with a variety of work and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages
Weekend College students to make use of college facilities such as the

meals and coffee breaks, to participate in optional chapel services and
lunchtime seminars, and to attend other college activities such as music

SOCIAL WORK
Accredited by the Council on Social Work Education, the Bachelor of
Science in Social Work degree program at Augsburg College is built on
a solid liberal arts foundation, on theory-based training, and on
professionally directed field experiences. As important, social work
education at Augsburg is built on an appreciation for the needs,
concerns, and values of the individuals and groups who constitute
today's multi-cultural society. The Social Work major in Augsburg
Weekend College includes nine courses from the departments of
psychology, biology, and sociology. Concentrations are possible in the
areas of aging, chemical dependency, corrections, social ministries, and

STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES
Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to
assist adults in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the
academic tasks of a college education, working on their own personal
development, and participating in activities beyond the classroom.
Some of these services are:
Academic Planning
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert
academic advising services on an on-going basis to provide for
efficient, effective planning. Students enrolling in Weekend College who
have had college experience will have their previous work evaluated
early in the admissions process.
Career Planning Services
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in
assessing their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in
combination with sound academic advising from faculty in a chosen
major field, can result in an appropriate and manageable educational
and career plan for the individual involved.
Academic Skills Center
This center exists to help students enhance their skills in the areas of
writing, reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic
tutors in specialized course areas are also available through the Center.
CounselinglSupport Groups
Individual and group activities are available to students who wish to
work on a personal growth interest or concern or who simply want to
have the experience of being in a support group of people who share
some similar characteristics and/or interests.
Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in
many life situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit
recognition within the disciplines that compose the academic programs
of a liberal arts college. The APL program (Assessment of Previous
Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous
learning, other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward
the completion of a baccalaureate degree.
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit
recognition at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two
essential criteria: (1) it is relevant to coursework in a field of study within
the Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and (2) it can be objectively
demonstrated either by comprehensive examination or committee
evaluation.
The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which
students may have their previous learning assessed for credit
recognition:
CLEP (College Level Examination Program)
Students who achieve acceptable scores in CLEP exams may receive
academic credit in Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a
variety of general and specific subject areas. For more information,
contact the Admissions Office (330-1002).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and
do not have transcript evidence of completed work may request a
departmental assessment of previous learning. This will most often
include an examination that covers the essential components of the
course involved. For more information, contact the Registrar's
Office (330-1036).
CAP (Credit Assessment Process)
This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee
completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the
student. Informational meetings and consultation are provided for
students who wish to prepare a portfolio of previous learning for credit
assessment. Students may apply for CAP after completing at least four
courses of academic work at Augsburg College with a cumulative GPA
of at least 2.5. For more information, contact the Registrar's
Office (330-1036).

About Augsburg College -Campus Location
inside back cover
Purpose
Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to
adults who desire college experience but who work or have other
commitments during the week. It is a means by which men and women
may earn a baccalaureate degree, gain skills for professional
advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a personal interest
in one or more areas of the liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
The Augsburg Weekend College program is designed to meet the
needs and preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the
assumption that the men and women who enroll in Weekend College
will be mature, self-disciplined and well-motivated adult learners who
seek a balance of classroom experience and individualized study. Each
course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated on-campus
study separated by time for independent study and class preparation.
Alternate Weekends
To accommodate this format for learning, classes meet on alternate
weekends for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday
morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each class selected
by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods.
Weekend College students may take from one to four different courses
by attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
This bulletin is published for the convenience of Augsburg Weekend
College students. Weekend College is a program of Augsburg
College and is subject to the policies and provisions as stated in the
Augsburg .College catalog.
Essential to the goals of Augsburg Weekend College is participation in a
community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the
student is involved in a stable community that provides opportunity and
encouragement to become involved in interaction both in and out of the
classroom. This community will be enriched by the presence of both
men and women with a variety of work and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages
Weekend College students to make use of college facilities such as the
library and college center, to take the opportunity of having shared
meals and coffee breaks, to participate in optional chapel services and
lunchtime seminars, and to attend other college activities such as music
and dramatic presentations and athletic events.
CHARACTERISTICS
OF THE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
Educational Mission
For over a century Augsburg College has emphasized intellectual
freedom in the search for knowledge. Our academic program builds on
a liberal arts foundation to help students understand the past, interpret
the present, and plan for the future.
As in the weekday program, Augsburg Weekend College offers
students a unique combination of the liberal arts disciplines and
professional education. Our goals are to help students develop the
intellectual skills and attitudes to be life-long learners, increase their
competence in selected areas of professional work, and accomplish a
higher level of personal growth.
Accreditation and Affiliations
Augsburg College is fully accredited by the North Central Association of
Colleges and Secondary Schools and The National Council for the
Accreditation of Teacher Education (Secondary and Elementary). Our
programs are approved by The American Chemical Society, The
Council on Social Work Education and the National League for Nursing.
We are a member of the Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities
(ACTC), Lutheran Education Council in North America, Minnesota
Private College Council, National Association for Music Therapy, Inc.,
and are registered with the Minnesota Higher Education Coordinating
Board (HECB).
Faculty
Augsburg College prides itself on its highly qualified faculty. Members of
the faculty serve as academic advisers to students who are in the premajor stage of planning as well as to students in declared major fields.
Library
Students and faculty use a carefully selected library of some 138,000
volumes plus audio-visual materials, with access to over 5,000,000
volumes through the Twin Cities private college consortium and Minitex.
lnternships
lnternships on and off campus are an established part of most
academic programs, helping students make career choices and develop
experience in their chosen fields.
DEGREES AND MAJORS
Augsburg Weekend College allows adults to begin a baccalaureate
degree program or to continue their education after beginning at
another time or institution. It also enables adults to add a second major
to an already completed college degree. The following information
outlines what is involved in completing a degree or major in Augsburg
Weekend College.
Baccalaureate Degree

essentially the same as the weekday program. A total of 35 semester
courses are required to graduate and may be fulfilled through transfer

Weekend College coursework. (Augsburg semester courses are valued
at 4 semester credits and 6 quarter credits.) Included in the 35 total
courses must be an approved major program, eleven upper division

Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to
assist adults in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the
academic tasks of a college education, working on their own personal
development, and participating in activities beyond the classroom.
Some of these services are:
Academic Planning
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert
academic advising services on an on-going basis to provide for
efficient, effective planning. Students enrolling in Weekend College who
have had college experience will have their previous work evaluated
early in the admissions process.
Career Planning Services
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in
assessing their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in
combination with sound academic advising from faculty in a chosen
major field, can result in an appropriate and manageable educational
and career plan for the individual involved.
Academic Skills Center
This center exists to help students enhance their skills in the areas of
writing, reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic
tutors in specialized course areas are also available through the Center.
CounselinglSupport Groups
Individual and group activities are available to students who wish to
work on a personal growth interest or concern or who simply want to
have the experience of being in a support group of people who share
some similar characteristics and/or interests.
DEAN'S LIST
The Dean's list is published after each trimester, listing students whose grade
point average for the trimester is 3.5 or better, based on a minimum of two full
courses, or equivalent, graded on the traditional grading system, with no
incompletes in the courses offered for credit.
ASSESSMENT OF PREVIOUS
LEARNING (APL) PROGRAM
Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in
many life situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit
recognition within the disciplines that compose the academic programs
of a liberal arts college. The APL program (Assessment of Previous
Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous
learning, other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward
the completion of a baccalaureate degree.
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit
recognition at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two
essential criteria: (1) it is relevant to coursework in a field of study within
the Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and (2) it can be objectively
demonstrated either by comprehensive examination or committee
evaluation.
The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which
students may have their previous learning assessed for credit
recognition:
CLEP (College Level Examination Program)
Students who achieve acceptable scores in CLEP exams may receive
academic credit in Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a
variety of general and specific subject areas. For more information,
contact the Admissions Office (330-1002).
Departmental Assessment
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and
do not have transcript evidence of completed work may request a
departmental assessment of previous learning. This will most often
include an examination that covers the essential components of the
course involved. For more information, contact the Registrar's
Office (330-1036).
CAP (Credit Assessment Process)
This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee
completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the
student. Informational meetings and consultation are provided for
students who wish to prepare a portfolio of previous learning for credit
assessment. Students may apply for CAP after completing at least four
courses of academic work at Augsburg College with a cumulative GPA
of at least 2.5. For more information, contact the Registrar's
Office (330-1036).

ABOUT AUGSBURG COLLEGE
History
Augsburg College was founded in 1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin and
moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The name Augsburg College and
Seminary changed in 1963 when the Lutheran Free Church merged
with The American Lutheran Church.
Location
Augsburg's 23 acre campus is in the heart of the Twin Cities
metropolitan area, only blocks from downtown Minneapolis and the
intersection of Interstate Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent to the
campus are Fairview and St. Mary's hospitals, the West Bank campus
of the University of Minnesota and the Mississippi River parkways.
Campus
Skyways, tunnels and elevators provide accessible connection between
9 of the 14 major buildings-student housing towers, College Center,
main academic and administrative halls, the Library and Music building.
Accessibility
We have made a major effort to become one of the most accessible
campuses in the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any
of the nine major buildings without going outside. In addition to building
changes, we have a student-run program to increase awareness and
provide extra help for students with disabilities.
Church Affiliation
Augsburg is a college of The American Lutheran Church. About 51 % of
the students are Lutheran, 15% other Protestant and 15% Roman
Catholic. Several other affiliations are represented among students and
faculty.
Nondiscrimination Policy
Augsburg College does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed,
national or ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or handicap as required
by Title IX of the 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended in its admission policies,
educational programs, activities, and employment practices.

Those who hope to lead had better understand both
rationally and intuitively the people who might be theix
followers, and the society in which they are embedded.
They had better comprehend the values of our common
culture, past and present, know how our political and
economic systems work, and understand how and why
science has changed the world ... Leaders need
specialists as advisers and staff members. But leaders
themselves are generalists ... At higher levels of
leader hip they cannot achieve their full potential
without considerable breadth of knowledge. Only this
way can they shape the contexts for decisions where
expert knowledge is used.

Community of learners
Essential to the goals of the Master of Arts in Leadership is
participation in a community of learners. Learning can be
enhanced when the student is involved in a stable community that
provides opportunity and encouragement for active participation
both in and out of the classroom. This community will be enriched
by the presence of men and women who bring to the program a
variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of
community interaction, Augsburg encourages graduate students to
make use of college facilities such as the library, meeting rooms and
college center; to take the opportunity of having shared meals and
coffee breaks; to participate in optional lunchtime seminars; and to
attend other college activities such as music and dramatic
presentations and athletic events.
leadership Practicum
.
I·
Master of Arts in Leadership students enroll in a half course called
"Leadership Practicum." Students are required to enroll in this
professional assessment and development course for six terms
during their graduate work at Augsburg. Upon completion of the
entire practicum, students receive a half course credit. In each
term, one Saturday and one Thursday evening are devoted to
"Leadership Practicum."
Early in the program a major component of this practicum is a fullday professional assessment to determine students' abilities and
potential relative to each of the outcomes of the Leadership
Development Model (see page 7) . Assessment instruments
include paper and pencil exercises and simulation and group
experiences. Following the assessment students meet individually
with a trained assessor who provides guidance in personal goal
setting and in the creation of a professional development plan or
"blueprint:'
In subsequent terms "Leadership Practicum" includes workshops
designed to meet the needs of the students in the following areas:
communication skills, self-assessment measures, group processes,
and other professional development topics identified by graduate
students and staff.
"Leadership Practicum'' concludes with a final assessment followed
by an individual meeting with a trained assessor.
The Master of Arts in Leadership program is composed of 12
courses. Each course unites two or more liberal arts disciplines,
ncournge pursuit of the designated outcomes, and uses a variety
of learning t clrniqu app ropriate to adult learners. In tructional
techniques ar varied, u h as ca e tudy, d bate, written and oral
presentations and group c ctivity. Th s tech niques, which have
had demonstra ted ·ucce in advanced cour e , d v lop targeted
l ader hip abilities and understandings. Continual reinforcement
occur·, s students employ these capacities in multiple c urses.
Students ar encouraged to c abilili sand understandings as

D valuation Standards
Evaluation of academic performance for the Master of Arts in
Leadership will be based on number grades using a 4.0 point scale
with these definitions:
4.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence
3.5
3.0 Achieves above basic course standards
2.5
2.0 Achieves the minimum passing standard
P
Achieves at or above the 2.0 level (not computed in grade point
average)
N
Does not meet minimum course standards (no credit and nonpunitive - not computed in grade point average)
W
Grade given when course is dropped
Incomplete grade given in case where student is unable to
complete course requirements for reasons beyond the
student's control (to receive an incomplete, a student must file
a letter with the Graduate Program staff stating reasons for the
request, the plan and date for removing the incomplete grade,
the signature of the instructor, and any other necessary
documentation) .
Not more than two courses with a grade below 3.0 will count
toward the degree. Not more than two courses with a grade below
2.0 can be repeated . Only the credits and grades earned the second
time are counted in the grade point average.
Alcademic Policies
Academic Probation and Dismissal
Students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. If a
student falls below a 3.0 average, the student will be placed on
probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point
average must be restored in order for a student to be removed from
probation. If a student receives a grade of Nin a course, the
student must petition successfully with the Graduate Program
Committee before being permitted to continue in the program. A
plan for the student to follow would be outlined at that time. If the
cumulative grade point average again falls below 3.0, the student
may be dismissed from the program by the Graduate Program
Committee. Students also may be dismissed by the Graduate
Program Committee for behavior detrimental to the program such
as a gross violation of college policy (as published in the Student
Guide). Dismissal would occur only after established procedures
were followed.
Credit for Prior Education, Training and Experience ·
Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the courses in the Master of
Arts in Leadership program, it is unlikely that courses taken
elsewhere may be substituted for a particular course in the
curriculum. Students may petition the Graduate Program
Committee for approval of any variation in the curriculum
including the transfer of credit or the receipt of credit for other
training.
Credit and Contact Hours
Each graduate course in the Master of Arts in Leadership program
is the equivalent of four semester credits or six quarter credits.
Students meet in class a total of 30 hours (excluding finals) and are
responsible for a significant amount of individual study and
preparation.
Enrollment Policy/Leaves of Absence
Students may take either one or two courses each trimester.
Enrolling in two courses per trimester enables a student to
complete the program in two years. All students are required to
complete the program within four years. Extensions beyond four
years will be considered on the basis of petition to the Graduate
Program Committee. Students who leave the program for more
than one term must request a leave of absence in writing from the
Graduate Program Committee.

Medieval Life in 12th-Century Europe
4 Semester Credits
This is the introductory course for medieval studies. It uses an interdisciplinary approach to study European culture during a period
known as the High Middle Ages, roughly AD 1100 to 1300. It attempts to examine medieval culture as a complex system of thought and
feeling, which includes history, religion, philosophy, literature, art, theatre, music, and food. It also takes an experiential approach to this
material, for example, by having students and faculty attend class in academic regalia, just as they did in medieval universities.

Keystone: Medieval Studies Project
4 Semester Credits
The final project in medieval studies functions like an independent study. Because medieval studies is an interdisciplinary major, the
final project must be also be interdisciplinary. Students are free to choose any topic connected to the Middle Ages, but must examine it
with professors from at least three different disciplines. The traditional disciplines that comprise medieval studies are art history,
English, history, music history, philosophy, religion, and theater history, but students have also completed projects involving professors
from other disciplines, such as sociology and psychology. Experiential approaches are encouraged but not required. For example, past
students have built medieval musical instruments, medieval suits of armor, and Renaissance commedia dell’arte masks, and then
written about the process.
