Nor is receiving scholarships. However. with cuts in both state and federal aid. an emphasis on increasing alternative resources to fund an education is the task at hand for Augsburg College. Four primary types of financial aid are available to students: scholarships, grants, loan aid. and work study. Approximately 1,300 — 82 percent — of students at Augsburg receive some form of financial aid. The total dollar amount last year was $5.7 million. “The significant thing is that we have one of the highest percentages of students on aid in our competition." said Herald Johnson. assistant vice president of financial services. Johnson specified Augsburg's competition as other ACTC tAssociated Colleges of the Twin Citicsi schools including Hamline. St. Thomas, St. Catherine‘s and Macalestcr and other private institutions. Gift aid for a student‘s education takes three forms: third party designated scholarships. where the non-college agency giving the scholarship selects the student; restricted funds. grants from an agency with Ausgburg selecting the recipient: and college budget funds with Augsburg budgeting for scholarships and grants. Grants. like scholarships. do not have to be repaid by the recipient. Three major chunch in state scholarships and grants have been made that greatly reduce the amount of aid available to students. The changes are an adjustment in the formula used to determine awards to studcnts so that more students can receive assistance; ignoring 15 percent of the total cost of attending a college: and a limit on the amount of money that can flow to private colleges [50 percent oi available fund5i. With these changes. state aid to Augsburg went down $286000 according to prcliininziry cstimatcs Cuts made in federal basic grants made 113 fewer Augsburg students eligible for a total of 51 10,000 less this year. Loan programs were also hit by financial aid cuts. “Changes included a 5 pcrccnt origination fcc to be paid on Guaranteed Student Loans tGSLi; the start of repayment was cut from iiinc months to six months after graduating or quitting school; on new loa us for students who have never borrnwcd money the interest rate will be 9 percent (Students that have loans prior to the changc will not llt' affected and the interest rate of 7 percent still holds i; the GSI. program will no longer l)L‘ tipcn to all students (Families with a gross income of more than $30,000 will have to prove financial iiccd before becoming eligiblel," cxpaincd Johnson To compensate. a new program has been initiated. PLUS tParcnt Loans for Undcrgrtidiiatc Students) will have a 14 percent simple annual interest with repayment starting within 00 days (if dispersement. Up to $3.000 can be taken out in one year through PLUS with art aggrcgzitc of $5.000 “Because PLUS is a new program there are not yet many lenders Parcnts intcrcstcd may bavc to do a little shopping to find a lender. ()ne of thc unattractive things for lcndcrs is the low It pcrct-nt interest charge." said Johnson. National Direct Student Loans tNDSLi. created in 1958 and the oldcst studcnt aid program crcatcd by Congress. is a need-based program funded by the Federal Government. Augsburg's institutional match. and funds created by former Augsburg students repaying thcir NDSI. loans. A total of $600,000 was loaned to eligible students last year Work Study is another form of financial aid available to students John lljt-lmcland. director of admissions. defines the program as a “working scholarship."

Show more"In recognizing student needs we always wish we could do more. Within our area the potential for more is always greater than the staff. time and energy to meet that potential." said Marianne Sander. vice president of student affairs. Services offered through the Center for Student Development (CSD) extend throughout the campus including housing. placement. academic skills. retention and counseling. Over the past academic year. there was an increase in the demand for study skills service offered through the Academic Skills Center. “People are now more willing to not struggle and get help." Sander said. Also. according to the Report of the Academic Enrichment Program prepared by the director. Don Warren. the “Introduction to the Liberal Arts (course) greatly improved the reading. vocabulary. and study skills of a large majority of the students enrolled." A housing staff overview for the past year posed the need for an expanded staff. “We did not have sufficient staffing last year.” said Sander. Last year‘s 1'4 full-time. live-in staff has been increased this year to 21 2 full~time. live-in staff members in the dormitories, The placement staff reviewed the 1980-81 year and saw the need to get students involved earlier in the year. Sander stated that as a result of this. people will be more prepared to graduate and will be able to face life after college more easily. The Retention Committee, formed in 1980. has two purposes: “To gather information relevant to the understanding of the factors related to student retention at Augsburg. and to make proposals to the administration and standing committees of the college regarding programmatic changes that might have a positive impact on retention." said Sander. A student survey was also issued regarding the problems of being in school with the purpose of making appropriate changes where necessary. On an overall basis, Sander stated that “The demand for counseling increased over the past year in everything from academic skills to placement counseling to counseling students about their personal problems." Seven inititatives have been determined by the CDS staff for the future. according to Sander. - The first involves the basic role of the staff, which is “to be more intentional in developing programs through a team process." - The second initiative is “to improve the public relations and outreach efforts of Student Affairs so that more students are aware of the programs and services available to them." Maior development campaign expected in 1982-83 Jerry Bjelde. vice president of development and public relations. finished his first year in office in October. During that time efforts were made to increase fund raising for the 1980-81 year and to establish programs for the future. In the past year concentration was on two fund—raising projects: the Annual Fund and development of a major campaign. The Development Committee of the Board of Regents. with Bjelde as director. concluded that the first order of fund raising would be in response to the needs of the current operating budget through the Annual Fund. "The Annual Fund for I980~81 exceeded the goal and greatly exceeded the Annual Fund for 197980." said Bjelde, He added that other restricted funds. such as Renewal Funds. equaled what was anticipated. The Development Committee also did the groundwork for a major campaign. parts of which involved plans for raising money for a communication arts and worship center, “At the November meeting of the Regents the campaign was endorsed with specifics to be considered at the February 1982 meeting of the Regents." said Bjelde. Within Public Relations this past year. Bjelde said the Augsburg campus community began to realize what the Public Relations Department had to offer. “There was an effort to enhance the quality of work and timeliness of what was produced in the department." said Bjelde. According to Bjelde. there also was an increase in alumni and parent activity due to new programs developed within the past year. “The successes of the past year directly relate to the staff. We were successful because of the professionalism and general concern for Augsburg shown by staff members.“ said Bjelde. Bjelde also credits the year‘s success to those who gave to Augsburg “Although there was a change in administration. people were still willing to give to Augsburg. This is a credit to the whole institution. showing that people have confidence in Augsburg.“ said Bjelde. Looking toward the future. Bjelde said the success Augsburg had with the Renewal Fund placed the college in a position of strength to move into it major campaign for I982 The campaign will likely be concerned with capital funds, endowment and annual funds. l2 # Annual Report GSBURG C‘BIUJEGENOW CSD services extend throughout campus community Marianne Sander Vice President of Student Affairs and Dean of Students - The third initiative is to review the student affairs model by examining and critically reviewing the SEMAPHORE to determine whether or not it is consistent with CSD and if it is functional for current students. 0 CSD also wishes to become more involved in residence life and facilities as well as that of other faculty and staff as part of its fourth initiative. - The fifth initiative involves the “continued study and evaluation of retention and new student programs and implementing needed changes." 0 The sixth initiative involves working on at least “one program related to ‘weliness‘ and assessing its effectiveness and potential.“ - The seventh initiative, as stated by Sander. is “to determine at least two topics for Student Affairs Staff '5 professional development and a process for implementing such learning. " A final phase of CSD involves the Human Development Programs, which Sander summarized as “anything we feel will help students grow.” The Food For Thought lecture series is a new addition to the Human Development Program offered this fall. — Kay MaIchow Public Relations Intern Gerald Bjelde Vice President of Development and Public Relations An important element of outreach fundraising for the coming year will include a phone program. Phone-a-Friend. that will have a new emphasis and organization. It will involve alumni students and faculty/staff as phone callers. The many opportunities for people to give to Augsburg will be emphasized during the coming year. The corporate match program. where employers match gifts given by employees. is one such program. A life endowment program. Life Eudowmem Fund. developed by Augsburg alumni and friends. will be activated and made available to alumni to secure and buy insurance policies naming Augsburg as the beneficiary. Spedal projects that provide an opportunity to respond to unexpected expenses will also be continued. Bjelde said the program that needs the most visibility is the i deferred (planned giving) program. The gift. arranged during a donor‘s lifetime. may not benefit Augsburg until a later date. It builds for the future and makes the greatest use of the tax advantages offered by the Federal Government. ‘ The success of the new major campaign will depend on continued support. “We need the support of all friends of Augsburg.

Y Gamma No“ Augsburg to meet challenges with clear sense of mission During the latter half of the 19705 the Augsburg College Community committed itself to improve the academic facilities of the institution in preparation for the balance of the century, The College also established the objective of eliminating architectural barriers to the handicapped. To achieve these objectives the College embarked upon a renewal fund campaign to raise $4.8 million. The campaign goal was met and exceeded. The past year saw the completion of most of the major components of campus renewal. By the end of the current year most of the architectural barriers will have been removed. We are grateful for this progress and know that it could not have been accomplished without the hard work and generous financial support of hundreds of people who believe in this institution.

Augsburg faculty and staff consrstently rank first among Minnesota private colleges in support of their college 1 L _i‘ A ~ Annual Roport Dean's Office advocate for quality liberal arts education Time to be new couldn't be a part of Dr. Richard Green’s responsibilities as vice president for academic affairs and dean of the college. Plans were already underway when he started office in October 1980 for a faculty development grant and a computer science minor but coordination and continuing efforts were needed. “I didn’t have time to be new. I needed to know the faculty and students and other members of the Augsburg community in a very short time. I made a special effort to meet and learn about the faculty. administration and students,” said Green. “I‘ve made some advancement in academic programming and have brought together the faculty, staff and others to cooperate on grant writing, proposal writing and awards for the college, said Green, Faculty Development The faculty development grant. funded by the Bush Foundation. was awarded with the efforts of many who helped to initiate the program this past year.“ The grant extends over a three-year period. “I am pleased that the faculty found the faculty development grant to be an important effort which was supported by other facets of the College. I'm hoping the interest of the administration and students will increase as the program progresses," said Green. The 1981-82 academic year will be an active one for the faculty because of the grant. Dr. Norma Noonan, director of faculty development, will provide guidance for a variety of programs offered with Dr. Mary (Mimi) Johnson as eo-director. The Faculty Development Grant will provide instructional improvement and professional growth: - Included in instructional improvement are a series of programs providing an annual workshop for improvement of teaching and academic advising techniques and allowing for multi‘cultural experiences with application to teaching which will provide alternative teaching styles and will be conducted by Augsburg faculty and off campus consultants. There will be general teaching workshops, awards for course development, courses for faculty in computer training, workshops regarding advising of students and faculty internships whereby faculty can obtain experience in government, community businesses and related areas . - Included in professional growth are a series of programs providing a summer research program for faculty, a faculty lecture series given by the Augsburg faculty, department chair development programs, purchase of faculty development materials for the library, proposal writing, a grant writing series, a conference on holistic faculty development. life and career planning and other interests the faculty would like to pursue. Computer Science Minor “The computer minor was a significant addition to the college this past year," said Green, “It was a timely addition and was responsive to student interest. Computer usage is increasing daily and is a universal concern. Computer knowledge is essential in today's world,“ The college purchased PDP 11/60 computer to meet the students‘ needs. Professor Leo Lake. director of the computer programs, was hired to offer guidance to faculty and students regarding the use of the computer and to help develop computer science courses, It is anticipated that the college will coordinate computer use not only as course offerings but also for implementation in all areas of the college. “During 1980-81. increased interest was shown in external grants and actual submission of proposals to Federal and private agencies," said Green, In order to help interested faculty members write grant proposals, information has been provided through the dean‘s office and elsewhere off campus. “With the help of Dr. Robert Clyde, who provided technical assistance, a number of proposals were funded such as the Bush Faculty Development Grant and a grant from DCUS for Global Education and Service." said Green. “Faculty committees are charged with the overseeing of academic programs and they have been and will continue to be active," said Green. Several changes have been made in course offerings which will enhance the programs. The committees are continuing to explore possibilities in continuing education. graduate programs and association with area community colleges. liberal arts colleges and local businesses. Further development of existing programs may lead to the initiation of more programs being developed next year." Admissions Emphasis Emphasis will be placed in four major areas next year: recruitment, continuing education. access for and recruitment of CgUGSBURG HEGENOW Richard Green \‘ice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of the College handicapped students and feasibility of transfers from community colleges. Recruitment “There will be a decided emphasis in the area of recruitment." said Green. “There is great interest in the non-traditional student with the forecast of a decrease in the traditional 18 to 22-year-old student. I would like to explore the possibilities of meeting the educational needs of the older student here at Augsburg. " “A committee is currently exploring the concept of the weekend college and will make a report in the fall of 1982.“ said Green. “It is hoped that a plan can be developed to offer college courses and degrees through the continuing education program to those who can‘t take classes in the regular daytime manner." "In regard to handicapped students. Augsburg is making provisions for them with the present tunnel and with the new skyway system. Augsburg is one of the accessibility leaders for the handicapped nationally and it is hoped more can be done in the future,“ said Green, ' “I would like to spend time working with the community colleges in the area," said Green. “1 think a feasible transfer program could be worked out between the community colleges and Augsburg as well as a possible faculty exchange program with the other ACTC colleges. " Dean's Office Dean Green sees his responsibilities as “broad. varied and of significant importance to the education of the student." There are four divisions of departmental offerings with more than 20 specific departments and area studies programs. Augsburg has special programs such as CHR (Conservation of Human Resources), summer school, interim, an international program, a foreign student program and a minority program which have coordinators or directors who function through the Dean‘s office. “Last year. several departments worked with CHR on the ALPHA (A Learning Program for Handicapped Adults) program. The faculty attended courses which were taught and supported by Augsburg faculty and which were designed to have Augsburg students work with handicapped persons as part of l their class curriculum, " said Green. , “My responsibilities include the conduction of activities for academics. Policies, procedures and ensurance of the quality of academic programs are part of my responsibilities," said Green. Included are promotion. tenure and leave of absence. The Dean helps to recruit and hire faculty and is concerned with promotion, tenure and leaves of absence. “The basic aim of the Dean‘s ofﬁce is to serve as an advocate for a quality liberal arts education and to seek new and existing resources to allow continuation of the college's goals." said Green. — Pat Phetpa Editorial Assistant Minmpolh.

Show moreAugsburg College Annual Report 1980-81 G (13%ﬁow Volume 45. Number: November/December I’ll Mlnneapolls MN 55454 President Anderson outlines challenges of the years ahead A year-end report appropriately deals with the events and records of the immediate past. In my comments I wish to concentrate on what lies ahead, with only a brief reference to last year. You will ﬁnd an extended description of the 1980-81 school year elsewhere in this issue of Augsburg College Now. Let me note briefly -— this has been a satisfying first year. The program continues at a high-level quality due to the fine faculty and staff that give themselves so unsparingly. Faculty and staff are functioning well. Some newcomers have joined us. My own staff has increased by two: Rev. Norman Wahl (’76) has become director of church relations, and John Hjelmeland ('69 i , director of admissions. Facilities Development Our Facilities Development program took a great stride forward with the installation of the Fairview skyway between Memorial Hall and Music Hall; the construction of elevators for Memorial and Psychology Building; and the construction of an on-grade connecting passage between Music and Psychology. Our fiscal year showed an $81,000 surplus due to careful management and favorable enrollment figures. I am immensely grateful for the past year and all its challenges, and trials, its failures and successes. My eyes are fixed, however, on the future; join with me in a forward look. As I look to the years ahead I am assuming that our current mission statement will continue to provide direction and imperatives. We will, therefore. continue to affirm the values of high quality liberal arts education as a college of the church and as a college which is a significant part of a major metropolitan center. At this point I suppose a president‘s annual report usually extolls the records of the past and speaks confidently about the promise of the future. Not this time, my friend. The future for private higher education at this moment is more threatening than promising. We are all haunted by the three spectors of demo- graphics, inﬂation, and changed governmental policy. Let me tell what these mean to Augsburg, and then suggest what we must do to address the situation. Demographics Demographics. For at least ten years there will be an ever decreasing number of Americans in the 18 to 22 age bracket, the traditional ages of college students. This is due to a dip in the birth rate in the late 505 and early 605. It is estimated that by 1991 the traditional pool of students will have decreased by nearly one thir . Inflation Inflation. On a national scale the average tuition at the private colleges increased 78 percent between 1971 and 1981. Comparatively, higher education is still a bargain, as one notes other inﬂation averages for the same period. For example, fuel oil increased about 390 percent, rent about 390 percent. and medical expenses about 212 percent. Our costs are being driven up by inflation and even with regular increases, our faculty and staff are not reasonably paid. The inflationary push is doubly dangerous because, lacking the support base of public institutions, we find the difference between what they can charge and what we must charge is increasing. Governmental Changes Governmental changes in policy. Massive cuts in programs to aid qualified students to attend the college of their choice have already been made at both federal and state levels. and it looks as if further reductions will be made. The high governmental priority given to the preparation of an educated citizenry has been seriously diminished. The wealthy will always be able to attend college. But what of those who are equally as bright and talented. but who have fewer funds? Last year 82 percent of our Augsburg students received financial aid. Over 300 fewer students this year were eligible for federal aid than last: over 50 fewer were eligible for state aid. in addition, signiﬁcant numbers of upper division students left Augsburg for the University of Minnesota because of the loss of financial aid What can be done to face these challenges? First we should frankly acknowledge the difficulty of our situation. The fact that the predicament is widely shared does not ease the problem. “Misery may love company," but its cure will not come by way of mutual condolence. We cannot continue doing things as we did before. In higher education today, “Business as usual." means "going out of business." Alumni, parents. friends, faculty and staff can all take an active part in addrssing the issues. let's look at two crucial areas: iStudent Population We are already reaching out to non-traditional populations and to others by our campis activities. We are reaching into six new “We are well poised to move forward again." ~ Clarion L Lva‘i-n'.

Unless our volunteer supporters move immediately, there will be a period in which students who are highly qualified. but from less than affluent homes. will be discouraged from attending Augsburg. “The success, Augsburg had with the Renewal Fund has placed the college in a position ofstrcngth to move into a major campaign for 1982. " (it"(lltl “Jilltll" Vict' l‘lt"»llll'lll of “('I‘t'ltlplllf’lll and Public lft'ltiliom We are assuming some increase in corporate support. but the main responsibility will rest on individuals.

We should move to at least 33 percent with a higher average gift. We have about 10,000 alumni. lfone-lhird of them averaged $250. the total would be $833,250 annually. Amazing! And that doesn't consider the participation of our many other friends. 2. Endowment. Consider the college and its needs as you plan for the future.

Show more‘( ;si -MIAC hockey action filled with competition, improved facilities My action in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference tMlAC i may not be at "sesame level as that in the Watem Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA ). but more and more players are coming into the MlAC with the same skills as players in Division I schools Betta-players. and more of them. are the result of expanding and improving summer hockey camps. high school programs. and facilities. "Hie MlAC is the best small college league in the country." said Ed Saugestad. head coach of the Augsburg Auggies. “The league has reached a point where there is so much depth and balance that any team in the league is capable of beating any other team. " Last season St. Mary's College lost to Augsburg 1L2 at Augsburg but when the traveling Auggies went to St. Mary's the tides were turned with St. Mary's defeating Augsburg 54. The league crown is not easily won. Two years ago Augsburg had to win the last game of the year for the MlAC title. And in 1981. Concordia won a share of the MIAC title on the last night of the season. The competition in the league stems from years of hard work in hockey programs. For every wokids that play Pee Wee hockey. only 20 make it to the high school level. . Fundamental skills are encouraged at an early age so the coaches later on can concentrate on positional play and the matching of personnel Schools in the MlAC (Augsburg. Bethel. Concordia. Gustavus. Hamline. St. John's. St. Mary's. St. Olaf and St. Thomas) attract players that Division I schools fail to offer scholarships. In addition. MlAC schools pick up players who turn down scholarships and transfer students. There are players in the MIAC who turn down scholarships from Division I schools for an opportunity to combine ice time with an education. “Our league blends academics with high levels of hockey competition." said Saugestad. Three players that transferred for last season from Division I schools to the MIAC were Pat Conlon. Mike Burkhardt. and Jim Finch. Conion. the league‘s leading point scorer. transferred from Air Force to St. Thomas. Burkhardt came from the University of Minnesota to Augsburg where he earned NAIA All-American and MIAC All-Conference honors. Finch transferred from Ohio State to Augsburg. Facilities have helped attract Division l caliber players to the MIAC. Ten years ago teams in the MIAC practiced outside and played games indoors. St. Mary's is wle turn left that plays in an uncovered rink. The Auggies use the Augsburg Ice Arena, completed in 1974. with two ice rinks and a seating capacity of 700. The MlAC has seen the likes of professionals Tom Younghans and Bob Paradise (both started with St. Mary‘si; minor league player Doug Johnson (St. Thomas): and ‘76 Olympic Squad member Jeff Boesser (St. Thomas). Out of respect for the league and its players. Herb Brooks invited several MlAC players to the Olympic try-out camps. Both state schools, Mankato and St. Cloud. were beaten by MlAC teams last year. MIAC teams have also done well against Division I teams they have played. St. Thomas beat Air Force Academy in 1975. and the following year both Augsburg and Gustavus flew to Denver and repeated the Tommie's feat, This year Augsburg will have 45~50 people returning from last year’s NAlA and MIAC championship team, An additional 80 people have expressed interest in going to Augsburg to play hockey. According to Saugestad. the situation is basically the same throughout the league. Saugestad takes pride in thc com~ petitiveness. "When kids come to me and say they want to play and I tell them that my roster is full and there isn't much chance of playing and the kid still says he wants to play. well. he‘s got to be a good man. lwant people like that," Augsburg has not only won the MlAC title for five years in a row, but has two NAIA championships in the last four years. - John Nichols ECHO Editor Auggie Boosters For game scores. schedules or press guides contact Sports Information (612430-1186).

The Auggies. defending 1980 MlAC champions. ended the season with an overall record of 4-9-1. “Defensively we were one of the better teams in the state. Offensively we just couldn't put the ball in the net.“ said Coach Rolf Eriksen. Last season the Auggies scored 22 goals to the opponents 8. This year the team netted 12 goals to the opponents 18. The Auggies improved for the second half of the season. winning the last three games in regular play and losing in playoff competition “We dominated 70 to 80 percent of the play at St. Olaf. We should have scored before the shootout. but I guess it just wasn't Alumni named to athletic Hall of Fame Four Augsburg College alumni have been named to the Augsburg Hall of Fame for men‘s athletics. joining 51 former recipients.

Show more10 — Campus News Clawson, From 1 put him in touch with a number of different people and agencies. Being a people person is not the only factor affecting the performance of a legislator. “The strongest legislators are those who can be identified with an obvious set of principles,“ Clawson feels. Integrity is also an essential quality. “otherwise you isolate yourself. No politician lasts whose integrity is questioned." Finally. a legislator must be reasonably sure of him- self: “I am aware of my limitations and my strengths." The legislature as a whole must be a wellainformed group. Clawson believes. “We must have information and the oppor» tunity to understand. Leadership asks people to act on information and not biases or instinct." In addition, legislators need training on how the system works. and to know their part in it. Clawson is a member of the Membership Resources Committee. which offers such training to legislators. With the new session of the House of Representatives beginning on March 6. Clawson sees certain issues as being primary this year. Taxes and spending will be dealt with in the House, with pressure to not spend much new money. “There will be some kind of tax restruo turing so somebody pays less money.“ A big question will be who should pay taxes—the property owners or the wage earners? Education will probably be a recipient. Clawson intends to push for funds going to nursing homes. He is a member of the Legislative Commission on Pensions and Retirement. and has interests in nursing home rate reform, judicial re-organization and governmental operations. He believes liberal arts education is essential in the background of a legislator. “A liberal arts education gives us an ap- preciation for humanity. What happens in the legislature is more related to such areas of study as philosophy. art and music." Legislators without this ex- perience have a harder time in their posi- tions: “It's difficult for them to figure out the whole, to put all the pieces together.” Looking back to the time he spent at Augsburg during the mid-60$ he commena ted. “It was a smaller school struggling to exert its uniqueness in the midst of the U of M and the Cedar-Riverside area." To Clawson. religion seemed to be a part of everything at Augsburg, explaining that it was “less of a piety and more of a basic under-girding for the school." But there was more than religion: “I tried to find out more about science, history. etc. because of my religion. Clawson lists many names when thinking of Augsburg people who in- fluenced him. Don Gustafson. associate professor of history, “let me into a history (seesaw seminar course that he shouldn't have let me into; he taught me a lot about teaching.” Carl Chrislock professor of history. “inspired me to do something with Minnesota history." Clawson took three semesters of French from Ruth Aaskov, associate professor of foreign language. “I can still speak a little. but I read it quite well.“ Being a Latin and Greek major, Clawson took many courses from the late Mario Colacci. former professor of classic language at Augsburg. “He did more to shape me than anyone; he was almost a father to me. He taught me more about language and religion than probably any other individual." Clawson also mentioned Leland Sateren. professor emeritus of music; Paul Sonnack, former professor of religion; Phil Quanbeck, professor of religion; and Khin Khin Jenson, professor of history and director of East and Southeast Asian studies as important figures in his Augsburg experience. At Augsburg, Clawson was able to find an excellent and supportive faculty who encouraged his growth. “Augsburg is a diverse place that is developed and developing. It was there that I was able to spread my wings.” —Karen Casanova ’83 Staffwritor Nelson, From 1 Nelson works hard at staying in touch with the people he represents. “I‘m ac- countable to these people for the decisions I make. I must stay in touch with the people and be willing to tackle the tough problems." Accountability is a quality which makes for a strong legislature. he believes, Nelson's varied experiences have been quite beneficial to his work as a legislator. Growing up on a farm in rural Minnesota had an important impact on him. “My parents and the church had a bearing on my values and feelings of human worth.“ His work in the ministry was “very much a people experience.“ When Nelson was in the army in 1955-56 he was stationed in Europe, and he also traveled around the world for 15 months. “The diversity of people you encounter was very helpful, You meet a broad spectrum of people and problems, but you realize that there is also a great deal of commonality.“ His education includes studies at SriVenkastasvara Univeristy at Timpati. India. a degree from Luther Northwestern Theological Seminary. and graduate work at the Humphrey Institute of the Univer- sity of Minnesota. All of this came after his graduation from Augsburg in 1961. Nelson‘s education. of course, has been vital in his work, but “learning is never done; we are constantly being stimulated tolearn." Nelson’s years at Augsburg were ones of “concentrated study. It was a very solid. supportive community, which stimulated me academically." A liberal arts education is “what we need in this specified age; we need people who are able to integrate knowledge. You get the necessary skills and development, but liberal arts goes on to put you in touch with the rich traditions of humanity." He remembers Augsburg as being “stimulated by its heritage. but contem- porary with its urban setting." He recalls the “community support. with a commit- ment to the students on the part of the faculty and staff." People like Carl Chrislock, professor of history. “had quite an impact on my life;” Jerry Thorson. former professor of English; Anne Peder- son, former professor of English; Ber- nhard Christianson, Augsburg’s president from 1938 to 1963, who was “profound in his spirituality and intellectual vision;" Phil Quanbeck. professor of religion; Paul Sonnack. former professor of religion; , If Auggies in Mozambique Minneapolis, Minnesota. ‘Joel Torstenson, professor emeritus of sociolog)’; Ailene Cole, professor of theater and speech; and Gerda Mortensen, dean of women from 1924 to 1964. Nelson saw the opportunities to participate as being vast. “There were many chances to develop skills outside of the classroom." In giving advice to current Augsburg students Nelson said, “Act conciously and not passively or you will miss so many things. Augsburg is a fantastic community of learning that can positively impact and develop your life for years to come. as it did mine. ” — Karen Casanova '83 Staffwriter Spring Now The spring issue of Augsburg College Now will carry articles about two more Auggies In the legislature: Senator Don Anderson '60, Wadena MN. and Representative Jerome Peterson '58, Princeton MN. Last fall, David H. Rokke '52 and Mrs. Kaanaeli (Ngowi '70] Makundi were part of a seven- memher team chosen by the Lutheran World Federation to evaluate the relief and develop- ment work of Lutheran World Service in Mozambique.

Show more8 — Little Theater “It is wonderful thatfive thousand years have now elapsed since the creation of the world. and still it is undecided whether or not there has ever been an instance of the spirit of any person appearing after death. All argument is against it. but all belief is for it. "—Samuei Johnson (1709—1784) Out on the fringes of Augsburg‘s cam- pus lies the Little Theater. Used now only for a few classes and by the Theater Department. it lives a quiet, rather obscure existence It appears to be another old building in its decline, nothing out of the ordinary. But the occasional reports of strange noises, filmish lights and eerie feelings stir the imagination. These rumors cause one to wonder what is going on in the Little Theater. Is it just the combination of wild imagination and the unusual but perfectly natural noises? Or is it something more? Could there be something dwelling within the Little Theater or even the building itself, which is unexplainable given our current scientific knowledge? Something which, if we accepted its ex— istence, would require a new and refreshing look at the world around us. From Church to Theater Beginning in 1911 and continuing until shortly before Augsburg purchased it in 1959, the Little Theater building was the Apostolic Faith Mission Church. The old parsonage is still attached to the theater. The last pastor to serve this church was Miss Minnie Hanson—an extraordinary person. Working as a pastor at a time when this field was dominated by males, she was, as one of her relatives put it, “bold enough to be different," and had a charismatic preaching style that included speaking in tongues. In 1956 Minnie‘s congregation voted to have her evicted after she was unable to continue her duties as pastor. But Minnie, who had lived at the church nearly all her life, believed she had inherited the proper- ty from the former pastor—The Reverend Jackson White and his wife, Martha White—by virtue of her continued service. The controversy got quite heated. Finally. Minnie agreed to leave. Less than two months after her move. Minnie Hanson died Since Augsburg purchased the building many changes were made in converting it from a church to a theater. Walls have been removed and added, light booths and storage closets built. Numerous Stairways connect these areas in a confusion of routes. It’s not beautiful in any obvious way, yet there is something special about it. like the old mountain man with a rugged face and ragged clothes. The beauty is not on the surface, but deep within its character, in the experiences it‘s bad and the stories it could tell, From the outside the Little Theater looks quite plain, almost dull. Inside, a conglomeration of chairs, costumes, props and scrap wood all seem to fit together, to belong to the theater. There are a few things that don‘t seem to fit, Like the tombstone in the basement, made for a young girl named Alice Q. Geis— inger and dated December 18, 1864. Beyond what can be said about Alice from her tombstone, nothing is known. Nothing can be found of where she‘s buried or how she died. No one by the name of Geisinger (ﬁUGSBURG IlEGENOW The Little Theater: Tombstones, footsteps, ghosts and more Little Theater lived anywhere in the state according tc the 1860 and 1880 censuses. This then, is the Little Theater: stair- ways, dark corners and tombstones—a perfect breeding ground for ghosts. It‘s not surprising, then, that a number of para- natural occurences have been reported. The most common experience is a strong, gut-level feeling that arises from obvious cause: sometimes a very good sense. other times a frightfully malevolent sense. Stories of the Little Theater— Tom Cornell ('83 Buffalo MN), who has worked on the technical side of the theater said, “There'll be times when I get this feeling as if something is looking over my shoulder, very interested in what I'm do ing. It's a protective, good feeling. 1 always work much better whenever I sense it.“ Don Fidler, who worked as a costume designer for a couple of years had several experiences with the negative energy. Once it was during the middle of the after- noon, on a bright, sunny day. He was bring- ing in old light fixtures that Ailene Cole. theater director at Augsburg since 1956, had purchased and was to put them into the light booth. As he was crossing the stage it was like he had: “run into a wall. There was a horrible blackness around the light booth. There was no way I was going in there. Leaving the fixtures on the floor of the stage I chose costumes (which were to go up into the attic) for my next load. As I was going up I looked through the door- way at the stage and saw Paul Sannerud (‘80 Minneapolis) stop where I had and set his load down also." Another time he and Paul were carry- ing a couch across the stage over to the old parsonage. About halfway across they both stopped, set down the couch and without saying a word, left the theater. Photo by Bruce Chaise Both of them, at the same moment had felt as if they must leave the building. A half hour later they were able to finish the job without any further problems. In the Little Theater, there are times when hearing footsteps doesn‘t mean that- someone is moving about. Almost everyone who has worked long hours in the theater has heard a pitter—patter of unex- plainable feet. The first time Fidler heard strange footsteps, which was before he’d even heard the riunors about the theater being haunted, he decided to find out who it was moving about. He and a student assistant were sewing late one night. The radio was on and they were talking, so it wasn't as if they were waiting and listening. Yet, they both distinctively heard footsteps above them in the scene shop. When they got up there no one was to be seen, but the footsteps could be heard going down the stairs of the parsonage. They followed the footsteps, they called out, but no one answered. Once downstairs they heard the footsteps, still ahead of them, move to the stage as if pacing them. Hurrying up they got to the stage only to find that they were still alone. Perhaps the most bizarre tales involve more than one person experiencing the same phenomena. The first of these stories was the "basic-footsteps«mothe-stage" story with a s ial effect twist, It began late one nig t after a long rehearsal. Staying to work on costumes, Karla Haij (‘76 Coon Rapids MN) tells of her and Jackie ('77 Knight) Akerlind's (Bristol VA) ex- perience: “When Miss Cole left the building she said she was going to lock the door and to be sure we relocked it when we left. Jackie and I were sewing away. All of a sudden I said, ‘Jackie, who's in this building?‘ She Minneapolis. Minnesota said, ‘Nobody, Carla. You know Miss Cole locked the building behind her. Nobody can get in and nobody can get out. It's just the two of us.’ “I had to agree, but still I felt like some- ohe else was in the theater. Finally, I said, 'Jackie there is someone in hei :.' She just shook herhead no. When all of a sudden we started getting scared because we heard footsteps walking across the stage. I mean someone def‘uiitely walking. “I thought, well maybe it’s the security guard, or it’s the person cleaning, or whatever, but there were no llghts on so it wouldn't be logical that anybody else was up there. We got up our courage, snuck up “:88 steps, and around the corner to the 5 go. Allwesawwasthisﬂashoflightlike something just skittering across the stage; real bright, filmish and then it was gone." A Final Tale , V My final tale occurred late in the after- noon of a final dress rehearsal. Doree Johnson ('79 Floodwood MN), Nancy Ris- ty ('82 Golden Valley MN), Janet Paone (’83 Minnea Iis) and Deb Pearson (’83 Coon Rapi MN) were getting the costumes ready for that evening’s show. The dream costumes, which had ‘ust been dyed that morning, were anging downstairs. A fan had been on them all day, but seeing that the costumes were dry, Miss Cole shut it off. About an hour before call, Doree and Janet went downstairs to use the bathroom. Feeling mischievous, Nancy took off after them, only she headed up to the stage area and was going to sneak down the backstairs to scare them. When Doree and Janet got down to the basement they were first surprised to see the costumes blowing about as if the fan were still on. S rised and frightened to see a ﬁgure standing in front of them they screamed. And Nancy screamed—up stairs. Whatever Doree and Janet saw, it wasn’t Nancy. She screamed when she had sensed an incomprehensible dread that stopped her as soon as she entered the back stairway. Besides, what Janet claim- ed to see was the top half of lii‘sbearded man,w ' a instri suit.T ' appari- tion fachadunall‘iriogt immgediatel . Once they got back to the stairs, Jane and Doree turned around. All they could see were the clothes, hanging still as death. Ps chic Power hese tales, accepted as supernatural, are brushes with the unknown. The vast majority of us are only aware of the world In the later years of the Apostolic Faith Mis- sion Church, Mrs. Martha White llehl. and Miss Minnie Hanson conducted the services of the church. This photograph was used by the psychic in Hoffman's research. of the five senses. But there are a few who claim to perceive a world beyond this one. If it is possible to accept the existence of unseen forces, then these ‘seers' of the un— seen can also be accepted. Before concluding the interviews I decided to see what those claiming psychic powers sensed in the Little Theater. Through my research I had come intocon- tact with Andre, a psychic who could perceive 'recordings‘ in the environment. Andre agreed to come to the Little Theater. Giving him pictures of Minnie, The Rev. and Mrs. White, a fourth gentleman, and merely stating that these people had once lived here, I posed the uestion of whose spirit, if anyone’s, was welling in the Little Theater. I left him alone. After he called me back, he said “It's her. It‘s Minnie Hanson." He went on to say “Min- nie is taking care of this place. Bless her heart, she doesn’t think it can be done Without her. I told her that she doesn‘t have to stay here anymore, but if she does you're very lucky."

Show moreWinter 1984 International Falls hockey players drawn to education, ice tradition Over the years International Falls has produced many good high school teams and players. This hockey hot-bed is responsible for two current Olympic athletes (Gary Sampson and Bob Mason) and numerous collegiate players. Recently, four International Falls athletes, Kevin Gordon, Mike Riley. Kipp Raboin and Charlie Dalton, have found their way to Augsburg College. a small. 1500 enrollment campus located five minutes from the University of Minnesota. What was the factor that drew these border athletes to Augsburg College? Senior center Mike Riley echoed a con» sensus opinion of the four. “It’s (Augsburg) small," said Riley. “It's in Minneapolis but it’s like a city within a ci- ty. I came from a small background and it’s nice." Augsburg may be a small college but its hockey tradition is not. Since 1977 Augsburg hockey teams have produced three NAIA and six MIAC Conference titles. In his 26 years as head coach, Ed Saugestad has compiled a 357-176o record going into this season. “The level of play here is very good." said Riley. “Last year we beat Air Force twice." The high level of play by the Auggies was exemplified two years ago when Augsburg won a third NAIA title with Gor. don and Riley on the squad. During the 1982 season, Gordon was named NAIA All- American and Riley scored the winning goal in the national tournament against Bemidji State College. Riley also was on the 1981 NAIA Championship Team. Kevin Gordon, a 1982 graduate of Augsburg. is the oldest of the four Interna— tional Falls natives. He is now the assis- tant coach for Ed Saugestad and his Aug- ies. g But Gordon did not come directly to Augsburg after his high school senior year. Like Riley, Gordon played on a strong Larry Ross coached team that was stop- ped in the later stages of the Section VII playoffs. Gordon was on the 1977 team that was eliminated on a ﬂuke goal while Riley played on both the 1978 and 1979 squads which lost to Grand Rapids in the tourna- ment's final games two consecutive years. The losses cost both players a chance at the state tournament and further exposure to collegiate scouts. “I really only played one year (in high school)," said Gordon. “So I wasn't really well known. I was kind of small. So I went to Rainy River." Gordon stayed at home for two years, playing at the local community college. At Rainy River he compiled around 190 points in his two years of play. “It was fun. I was at home and I got to play a lot," said Gordon. “That league had a lot of penalties and you could score short- handed as well as on the power play." Gordon made his way to Augsburg when Rainy River coach Terry Thompson sent his statistics to a number of small col- lege coaches, including Saugestad. “He probably didn’t believe them (the statistics) but he called me," said Gordon who then chose Augsburg. During his career as an Auggie he played the 1909-80 season. sat out the following campaign with a knee injury, then returned for his senior year. Gordon led the team in scor- Baseball team opens season at Metrodome The baseball team opens the season March 17 at the HHH Metrodome for a six~ game series with other MIAC schools. This series replaces the traditional spring trip. Augsburg finished second in the MIAC last season and, according to head coach Ron Petrich. “1984 is a rebuilding year.“ The team record in 1983 was 15-14 overall and 13—5 in the MIAC. Top returning players include tri» captains Pat Flanders. a senior catcher from Richfield MN; Mark Herzog. a junior second baseman from West St. Paul: and Steve Rixe. a junior designated hitter from New Hope MN. Flanders and Herzog were named 1983 MIAC All-Conference and held seasonal batting averages of .333 and .325 respectively. Herzog had 27 RBIs. Petrich has coached baseball at Augsburg for six years. He is a teacher at South High School in Minneapolis.

Riley, like Gordon. played elsewhere before Augsburg having spent one year with Green Bay in the United States Hockey League (USHL). “I didn’t know w ere I wanted to go." said Riley of his d ision to go to Green Bay. “I didn‘t want to make a wrong deci- Sion," Riley, who was accompanied by Olym- pic goaltender Bob Mason to the USHL, spent one year in Green Bay before mov- ing on to Augsburg. Mason stayed on at Green Bay another year. then played two years at the University of Minnesota. Duluth before trying out for the Olympic team. “I don’t regret my decision one bit," said Riley. who had offers from other col— leges. “I had to set my priorities, I wanted an education first. Augsburg had a good program and plenty of ice time with two rinks." Riley is third on the team in scoring with 11 goals and 15 assists through 22 games. Raboin and Dalton chose Augsburg straight from high school,_having played on last years’ state tournament squad. Both are currently playing on the junior varsity team. Both players were contacted last season by Riley about playing at Augsburg. "I felt that they were the best players on the team." said Riley of Dalton and Ra- boin. “You have to want to come here. You can’t come here and be unhappy about not playing." Although not playing varsity fulltime their freshman years, seldom done at Augsburg, Dalton and Raboin are happy and learning. “It’s a lot more disciplined." said Ra- boin of Augsburg hockey. Dalton agreed, “Practices are more strict. In high school you could just skate around and shoot but here you have to be in a certain place at a certain time or it's off the ice." Both Dalton and Raboin agree that education was the first consideration in selecting Augsburg. But they also have en- joyed the hockey end of the decision. As of now they both agree that they made the right choice of attending Augsburg. Future play after Augsburg? Dalton and Raboin are not yet looking four years ahead. For Riley. now nearing the end of his collegiate career, it is a different story. "Possibly," said Riley. “I have an agent and I‘m looking at possibilities in Europe." Gordon, who tried out with the New York Rangers last year. seems con- tent un staying where he is at the moment. Would the four players recommend Augsburg to a player now in high school? “To some." said Riley. “But they have to want to come here." —-Mat1 Roberg Freelance Writer Editor's Note: Roberg is a former sports reporter for the Mesabi Daily News.

This year he took over the number two spot in all -time scoring with more than 1,600 points in his three years of play (2/24/83). In his freshman year, Ammann was se- cond in MIAC scoring and in his sophomore year he led the MIAC with a 22.2 point average. This season he has been in the top five of Division III scoring and led the scoring column for the NCAA III in the first half of the season. Amann‘s game high this year was 41 points in the season opener when the Auggies lost in double overtime to UW/Eau Claire (79438). a top» ten ranked team by the NAIA. Ammann is the leading scorer at Augsburg and in the conference with a 26 point average overall. He is a physical education major and the son of Ralph and Grace Ammann, Richfield.

Could it be a poltergeist playing tricks on us'.’ Or Min- nie's ghost wandering across the stage. just checking on things? Some Augsburg theater L{.Eeople, including Ailene Cole, believe t nothing is going on, nothing out of the ordinary. One final factor that has to do with natural causes for the phenomena reported is cats. A devious stray cat can get into the theater several different ways. 25 Students inducted in Alpha Chi Society Twenty~five Augsburg students were inducted into the Alpha Chi Honor Society thisfall.

GSBLRG HEGENOW An incident that happened to Pete Rosenkvist (‘81 West St. Paul MN) clearly shows just how frightening a sneaky cat can be. He was working alone in the Playwright's Lab on Franklin Avenue when he heard a loud crash in the base- ment. He checked it out but found no sign of anyone. So he returned to his desk on the ground floor and called his girl friend. After a while he began to feel as if some- one were watching him. standing right beside him. He told his girl friend that he thought someone was in the building. Before he could turn around. though, he sensed that something was coming at him. He screamed. threw the phone in the air. and dove for cover. When he looked up there was nothing but his girl friend screaming on the phone and a large cat purring on his desk. Finale Tombstones. cats and ghosts. What is going on in the Little Theater? After drag- ging psychics around. hunting down long- lost Augsburg graduates and reading miles of microfilm. there is still no answer. For those who want to believe. there is enough evidence. but there is also a definite lack of it for those who don't. I guess I'm too much of a romantic to not believe. It's not that I'm sure the Little Theater is haunted. It‘s just that I‘d rather believe in the possibility of the unknown existing. Life is more fun with a few mysteries left to be discovered.

He was named chair— man of the board at Augsburg in Novem- ber 1982. having joined the board in OC- tober 1978. In presenting the gift from the First Bank System Foundation, it was noted that two of Grangaard‘s great interests have been education and the development of people “The establishment of the fund for the purpose of faculty development seems singularly appropriate." said Gerald Bjelde, vice president of public relations and development.

Embassies in Paris and Vienna who outlined their work in France and Austria. They contrasted their work with the restrictions they would find in a police state such as East Ger» many and the controlled information media in the Soviet Union. The interviews the students had in Berlin were with television and radio sta- tions that carry to both West and East Ger- many. According to Hedblom. that ”...can produce strange results. One of the most famous incidents involved the arrival_in East Germany of 10.000 Volkswagen cars from West Germany to help meet the H year East German waiting list. This was announced on the West Berlin radio station on Thursday...which carries to 10 million East Germans, but was not acknowledged on East German radio until 3 days later. By 7:00 am.
