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.

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.

(Anatomy and Physiology, Microbiology, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic or

Science in Social Work degree program at Augsburg College is built on a solid

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

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
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.

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).

Augsburg Tuition Grant

College students who show academic potential and have financial need.

however, request that the student have a personal interview with a
Weekend College facultylstaff member or submit letters of
recommendation to the Committee. Students who are admitted
conditionally may be referred to the Academic Skills Center and
encouraged to participate in the developmental skills programs that
are available.
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 n?ajor 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.

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

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.

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.

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.

PRESIDENT'S GREETING

President's
Greeting
Experiences during the first year after high school play a major
role in one's development of a philosophy of life, which consequently determines how one lives his life and what he gets out of it.
Golden Valley Lutheran College was established with the main
purpose of providing an opportunity for the student to develop a
philosophy of life founded on Christian convictions.
We strive to provide this foundation for life by emphasizing a personalized education which includes the opportunity for the study of
both liberal arts and the Scriptures, a curriculum which we feel will
best help the student understand the world in which he will be living
and working.
We ask that those who come have an open mind, a grateful heart,
and a desire to learn. Preparation for "making a living" is not sufficient for the Christian today. Golden Valley Lutheran College is also
designed to provide an education which will serve as preparation for
"making a life."
Bernt C. Opsal, President

General Information
HISTORY
Golden Valley Lutheran College is a two-year coeducational
liberal arts college established in 1967 by The Lutheran Bible Institute of Minneapolis which had been engaged in adult Christian education since 1919. Beginning as a Bible school in 1919, The Lutheran
Bible Institute moved from St. Paul to Minneapolis in 1929, and to
Golden Valley, a suburb four miles west of downtown Minneapolis,
in 1961. Through the years this educational institution has addressed itself to the needs of young people and has sought to meet
those needs by establishing programs appropriate to the times. The
College is inter-Lutheran and is not directly affiliated with any particular Lutheran synod. It cooperates with and seeks to serve all
synods and society as a whole. The College admits qualified men
and women from various geographic, cultural, ecohomic, racial,
and religious backgrounds.
THE CAMPUS AND ITS LOCATION
Golden Valley Lutheran College is located on a beautiful 30-acre
campus in Golden Valley, a western suburb of Minneapolis which is
the cultural, recreational, and sports center of the Upper Midwest.
The academic life of the students is centered in a large split-level
complex. Classrooms, library, faculty and administrative offices, a
prayer chapel, the College auditorium-gymnasium, cafeteria and
lounges are located in this building.
·
Four residence halls on campus, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta
dormitories, house approximately 400 students. The facilities· incJude fireplace lounges, laundry facilities, rooms for prayer a:nd

meditation, and apartments for residence counselors. Adjacent to
Gamma dormitory is the Commons, a student lounge and recreation area. A student center with a grill is located in Delta dormitory.
PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES
Golden Valley Lutheran College is a liberal arts institution with a
program of studies in the areas of general education, Biblical literature, music, physical development, and semi-professional training.
Its primary purpose is to provide two years of higher education for
students interested in the arts and sciences, and also piovide
opportunity for a study of the sources oi the Christian faith.
Through special activities the College provides the basis for personal growth and cultural enrichment, and encourages students to
participate in community and church activities.
In order to reach these goals, Golden Valley Lutheran College offers students a choice of one of the following curricula:
1. Completion of a two-year liberal arts education that functions
according to the standards common to the academic enterprise and that prepares the student to transfer to a four-year
college or university.
2. The completion of a two-year program provides the basis for
semi-professional employment in the fields of parish work,
missions, secretarial work, social service and recreational
leadership.
3. Study of the Bible and liberal arts in a collegiate setting for
individuals who do not intend to pursue a degree or semi-professional programs.
Golden Valley Lutheran College strives to supplement these curricular programs by emphasizing the following objectives with
opportunities ...
. . . to develop knowledge of the Hebrew-Christian world view as
set forth in the literature of the Old and New Testaments and
an analysis on the part of each student concerning his or her
basic beliefs and spiritual commitments .
. . . to develop service motivated standards of conduct for young
adults as they move into the many areas of national life, including social improvement, community involvement and
active membership in Christian congregations .
. . . to appreciate the great works of art, music and the theater
through courses and cultural events on the campus and
through the extensive presentations offered by the metropolitan surroundings of the College.
GENERAL INFORMATION

... to attain physical well-being through the application of standards conducive to good health and participation in physical
education and sports activities .
. . . to develop personal self-confidence through the determination
of individual goals, the building of relationships with other
people and the experience of companionship in a Christian
setting.
ACCREDITATION, AFFILIATIONS AND
TRANSFER OF CREDIT
Golden Valley Lutheran College received regional accreditation
through the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools in
July of 1978. Thus, entering students can be confident that if they
make a creditable record at Golden Valley Lutheran College, their
credits will be accepted elsewhere in the academic community.

Transfer of Religion Courses
With reference to transfer of religion courses, it should be noted
that most colleges and universities accept our courses in religion.
Students who are planning to continue their education at a college
with limited transfer of religion .credits may register for the religion
courses which are listed in the liberal arts departments. Through
the proper selection, most religion courses are transferable, and a
student with a satisfactory academic record can normally complete
a Bachelor's degree two full academic years after receiving the A.A.
degree from Golden Valley Lutheran College.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Golden Valley Lutheran College is oriented to the Christian Gospel and expects its students to live accordingly.
'
The College reserves the right to discipline those who conduct
themselves in a manner which is not in the best interests of the

to be familiar with the regulations and standards pertaining to
student conduct as described in the Student Life Handbook.
Chapel
All classes are dismissed each morning for a 25-minute chapel
program. These programs are varied in content. Some are in the nature of worship services conducted by students, faculty, or guest
speakers, while others include films, lectures, drama, music or
other special convocation programs.
Each student is encouraged to participate fully in the daily chapel
services of the College community. He or she is also encouraged to
attend public worship every Sunday in the church of ones choice.
Student Use of Automobiles
Since parking space is limited on campus, those students who do
not need an automobile for commuting or transportation to or from
work are urged not to bring a vehicle to college. Those who do need
an automobile or motorcycle must secure a parking permit through
the business office. The Dean of Students shall have the right to
terminate a permit :at any time if, in his opinion,. circumstances
warrant such action.

Student Personnel Services
NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION
Prior to the start of the fall quarter, new students are invited to
the campus to participate in orientation activities. During this time
the student will have an opportunity to learn more about the College
and meet staff and faculty personnel who will assist in course planning for the coming year.
The orientation period also includes a series of ability and
personality tests which are used to help provide a more effective
counseling service for students. Selected upperclassmen are available to help the new students become familiar with and adjust to
college life.
COUNSELING SERVICES
The major decisions which students have to make during their
early college years are often difficult and perplexing. Counseling
provides a service which helps students learn ways of solving their
academic, social, personal, and vocational problems.
The College counselors are available to assist students in
clarifying or establishing appropriate educational and vocational
goals, to help the students evaluate aptitude and interests, to help
them plan programs in preparation for further study, and to help
them deal with personal and/or emotional problems.
Each student is assigned to a faculty advisor who will assist him
or her in planning an appropriate schedule of classes for each aca..
demic term or with other aspects of college life. In addition to the
12
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
assigned faculty advisor, each student may make appointments to
visit Vv'ith instructors, Residence Hall Directors, the deans, the Co!lege nurse or others on the staff who can give assistance if difficulties are encountered.
Study skills assistance is provided for students who need to improve their reading rate, reading comprehension, spelling, mathematics skills, study skills, or writing skills. Students seeking this
assistance should register for one of the Personal Orientation
courses described on page 63.
HEAL TH SERVICES
The College has a registered nurse on the staff to provide basic
medical services. Students requiring additional treatment are usually referred to the Golden Valley Clinic which is located less than a
mile from the campus.
INSURANCE
The personal property of staff members and students is not
covered by insurance and the college does not assume any responsibility for the loss of such property.
HOUSING SERVICES
Golden Valley Lutheran College is primarily a residential college.
Provided space is available, all full-time students live in the College
residence halls. Exceptions are those who commute from their
tiomes, or who work for their board and room. All students living on
campus are required to participate in the cafeteria program which
provides three meals a day, seven days a week. The price fixed for
the weekly 21 meal plan is set with the knowledge that a certain percentage of the meals will be missed during a week. Students who

programs of the College provide wholesome recreation together
with programs that stimulate spiritual and intellectual growth. Students are involved in the planning of social activities which can enrich college life and foster friendships.
STUDENT GOVERNMENT AND SOCIAL LIFE
Student self-government is carried out by a Committee on Student Activities (CSA) elected by the student body. This representative group serves as a coordinator of student-faculty relations. It
seeks continually to improve and make the life of the student more

the financial aids that are available to assist the student in meeting
these costs. The College reserves the right to change the costs of

The college does not receive direct financial support from any denomination or Lutheran synod. Many of the gifts that come in are
through legacies, matching gifts from corporations and Lutheran
Brotherhood, Minnesota Private College Contract, and congregations and congregational organizations. Most of the funds,
however, come from individual gifts. These contributors include
alumni, parents and friends of the college. There are two programs
to which people have committed themselves. They are the Loyalty
program, where one may pledge $400 to be paid over a four-year
period, and the Inasmuch program, where one may pledge $1,000 or
more to be paid over a four-year period. We believe that the Lord
answers prayer as we tell our friends what our needs are and ask
them to join us in participation by prayer and by giving.

Gift Support
The charges that are made to students for tuition, room and
board do not adequately cover the costs of operating the college. In
fact, 35% of the cost of operation must come from gifts and grants.
In the present budget this amounts to $700,000 a year. Therefore,
over and above all help s/he may get, each student receives the
equivalent of a $1200 scholarship per year in order to cover the total
expenses of the operation.

registered and paid their tuition will receive a computed refund
figured from the date the Bookkeeping Office receives the application for withdrawal.

FINANCIAL AID
23
Financial Aid
Golden Valley Lutheran College offers several· kinds of financial
aid to help students and their parents defray the expenses incurred
by the student's college education. All such awards are made by the
Financial Aid Committee and are based on the student's academic
achievement, special abilities, and financial need.
Basically, there are three sources of financial aid:
Federal Government
State of Minnesota
Golden Valley Lutheran College
There are three forms of aid:
Gift Aid
Loans
Student Employment
All types of financial assistance are made for only one academic
year, but students may expect to receive their financial assistance
for the second year if they remain in good academic and personal
standing and if their financial need continues. If a student withdraws during the quarter, he or she forfeits the entire amount of gift
aid that was awarded from College funds for that quarter as well as
proportionate amounts awarded from state or federal funds for that
quarter.
GIFT AID
Gift Aid is a categorical name given to all awards from GVLC plus
the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant and the Minnesota State Scholarship/
Grant Program. These awards do not have to be repaid.
Basic Educational Opportunity Grant-A grant provided by the
24
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Federal Government based on financial need. Th.e amount is determined by a formula based on expected parental contribution from
income and assets. Students applying for financial aid from the
College will be expected to apply for this grant.
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant-Awarded by the
Federal Government through the College, these funds allow GVLC
to make awards of $200 or more to students who show exceptional
financial need.
Golden Valley Lutheran College Gift Aid-Includes all awards in
the areas of academics, athletics, Christian service, drama and
music as well as the GVLC financial need grants. These awards are
based on demonstrated excellence in the specified skill area and financial need as defined by the ACT (American College Testing)
Family Financial Statement. The GVLC Gift Aid awarded to freshmen is based on their high school achievement, while the Gift Aid
awarded to sophomores is based on participation and achievement
while freshmen at GVLC. One-third of the award is credited to the
student's account each quarter.
Minnesota State Scholarship/Grant Program-Available to Minnesota residents with awards up to $1,250 per year depending on
need. All Minnesota residents who apply for financial aid at GVLC
are expected to apply for this aid. Contact your high school counselor or the GVLC Financial Aid Office for specifics because filing
details (such as deadlines) vary from year to year.
Other Grants- There are a number of grants and scholarships
available from other sources. The student is encouraged to consult
his/her high school counselor and the College's Director of Financial Aid for other federal, state, and community-sponsored scholarships and grants.
DEFERRED PAYMENT LOANS
National Direct Student Loans (NDSL)-Federal NDSL Loans are
available to students who have financial need and have been
accepted for admission to Golden Valley Lutheran College. Repayment and interest do not begin until nine months after the student
completes his/her studies. The interest rate is 3%, and repayment
may be extended over a ten-year period. Part of the loan is forgiven
if the student enters certain fields of teaching or specified military
duty.
Guaranteed Student Loans-The student may borrow up to
$2,500 per year at 7% interest from a bank, and the federal government will pay the interest during the time the student is in college.
The borrower pays the principal and 7% interest during the repayment period.
FINANCIAL AID
25
When a bank will not give the loan, the student may borrow up to
$2,500 per year at 7% interest from the Minnesota State Student
Loan program. First year students are limited to $1,500 per loan,
but may apply for second loans under the $2,500 limit. The federal
government will pay the interest during the time the student is in
college. The borrower pays the principal and 7% interest during the
repayment period. These loans are processed through the GVLC
Financial Aid Office.
Lutheran Brotherhood loan-If a member of the student's family
holds a Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance policy, a student may
borrow up to $2,500 per year from the Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance Society at the same terms described under Federal Insured
Student Loans.
STUDENT EMPLOYMENT
College Work-Study Program-Golden Valley Lutheran College
participates in State and Federal Work-Study Programs. The
student's eligibility depends on his/her financial need and individual skills.
Student Part-time Employment- The College offers a variety of
campus jobs with moderate pay. In addition, there are numerous
part-time employment positions available in the Twin Cities and
surrounding suburban areas. The Student Employment Office maintains a listing of opportunities available.
PROCEDURE FOR APPL YING FOR FINANCIAL AID
In general, no financial aid is offered to entering freshmen until
they have declared their intention to attend. The first step, then, is
to apply and be admitted to the College. In addition to the application for admission, the student must complete an application for financial aid and return it to the Admissions Office.
The next step is to obtain from the high school counselor an ACT
Family Financial Staiement as this is the basic means used to
determine financial need. Many otherwise qualified students fail to
receive financial assistance simply because they failed to get their
financial statements sent in early enough; they should be on file
before March 1. Minnesota residents must file the ACT Family
Financial Statement by March 1 to be eligible for the Minnesota
State Scholarship/Grant Program.
26
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Students who complete the above process can expect to hear
from the Director of Financial Aid as soon as a!! pertinent information can be assembled. Once a qualified student receives the resulting Financial Aid "Package," he or she must indicate acceptance
within three weeks of the date of receipt.

THE ACADEMIC PROGRAM
29
The Academic Program
Golden Valley Lutheran College grants three types of two-year
completion awards: the Associate in Arts Degree (Liberal Arts and
Transfer Program), the Associate in Arts Degree (Specialized Program), and the Junior College Certificate. A one-year Vocational
Certificate is awarded for completion of a selected one-year vocational curriculum. In addition there are specialized programs of
study available for certain qualified students who do not seek a
graduation award.
The academic program at Golden Valley Lutheran College is basically liberaf arts and allows one to concentrate in the area of general
education, Biblical and theological studies, or a specific vocation.
Students who eventually plan to attain a four-year liberal arts degree are encouraged to get the general education requirements satisfied while at GVLC, thus allowing them to concentrate chiefly on
their major and minor areas of study during the last two years of
college.
General education courses ask the student to know something of
the world of nature and scientific method, of the society in which he
or she lives and in which one has a part to play, of the historic perspective and human achievements called the fine arts and humanities, and of the eternal values perceived in Biblical and theological
studies.
GENERAL ACADEMIC INFORMATION
Credit Load and Student Classification
A normal credit load consists of 16 hours per term. Exception to
this credit load will be considered in consultation with a student's
30
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
faculty advisor. Permission to take more than 18 credits must be
granted by the Academic Dean. Students enro!!ed for 12 or more
credit-hours per term will be considered full-time; those with less
than 12 credit-hours will be considered part-time students. A student who has earned less than 45 cumulative credits will be classified as a freshman; a student who has earned 45 or more cumulative
credits will be classified as a sophomore.
The auditing of courses is not encouraged since classroom capacities are needed by students interested in earning college credit.
Auditors are required to do all work assigned by the instructor and
tuition costs are the same as costs for credit.
Grading and Honor Point System
A student's grade point average is figured at the end of each term
and is determined by dividing the number of earned honor points by
the number of earned credits. Honor points are computed by the
following scale:
Grade

***An optional grading system of Sand U may be used at the discretion of the instructor for non-transferable credit. If a student is to
work for an S instead of a letter grade, the decision must be determined by the instructor and the student before the sixth week of the
quarter. An S counts as two honor points per credit for the Junior
College Certificate only and will not be credited toward an Associate in Arts degree.
Academic Honors
An Honors List composed of those students who have earned a
grade point average of 3.00-3.49 is compiled at the end of each
term. Those students who achieve a grade point average of 3.50 or
better are included on the Dean's List.

faculty, a student will be counseled in relation to unsatisfactory
progress toward the Associate in Arts degree: (a) when his or her
grade point average for any quarter is less than 2.00; (b) when his or
her transcript shows two or more grades of I (Incomplete) in one
quarter. If a student's grade point average falls below 1.50 for any
quarter, he or she will be placed on academic probation until the
grade point average is raised to 1 .50 or above. A student who persists in a pattern of unsatisfactory progress may be dismissed from
college.
Eligibility for Varsity Sports
Eligibility rules for participation in varsity sports at Golden Valley
Lutheran College conform to the National Junior College Athletic
Association eligibility rules. In general, in order to participate in a
varsity sport, a student must be a full-time (12 credits) student
during the qualifying and competing quarter. He or she must earn a
grade point average of 1.5 or better in at least 10 hours of course
work listed in the College catalog. Freshmen enrolled at GVLC in
their first quarter of college are exempt from the qualifying quarter
requirements. A student's eligibility is reviewed each quarter and all
hours of a complete course (subject) must be counted in computing
a student's grade point average. (See NJCAA Eligibility Rules.)
With regard to co-curricular activities other than varsity sports, a
student who earns a grade point average of less than 1.5 for a
quarter may have co-curricular activities curtailed or programs of
study reduced, at the discretion of the Scholastic Standing Committee.

GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Repeating A Course
A student may repeat only courses in which a grade of Dor F has
been received. The intention to repeat a course must be certified at
the time of registration for the course. If a student repeats a course
in which a D or F grade has been received, only the more recent
grade earned will be entered on the student's transcript and included in the computation of the grade point average.
Class Attendance
Each student is responsible for completing work as required in
each class. With respect to unexcused absences, excused
absences, or make-up work, it is the student's responsibility to
learn the policy of each instructor. The instructor's policy is usually
stated in the course outline. At the discretion of the instructor, a
student may be expelled from the course for an excessive number of
unexcused absences or uncompleted assignments.
Independent Study
A maximum of six credits in Independent Study may be applied
toward the Associate in Arts Degree. The student must meet the
criteria established by the department and have the approval of the
chairman of the department in which he plans to do the study. Standards require a 3.0 average in the department in which Independent
Study is taken, a limit of four credits per term in Independent Study,
and a demonstration of relevance to the student's objectives. Independent Study applications are available in the Registrar's Office.
Bible and English Requirements
All students enrolled at Golden Valley Lutheran College are required to take one Bible course each quarter if they are enrolled for
eight credits in Divisions other than Bible. The only exception is the
student who has taken extra Bible courses in previous quarters. A
student who transfers from another college is not required to complete the full 18 credits in Bible for graduation but is required to
take one course each quarter while enrolled at GVLC. History 102,
English 230, and Greek 101, 102, 103 and all of the courses listed in
the Department of Biblical Studies are open to the student for
selection. The suggested Bible core sequence is listed on pages
57-58.
All freshmen students are required to take the sequence in College English (English 111, 112, 113).
THE ACADEMIC PROGRAM
33
Activity Credits
A total of nine credits in co-curricular activities may be applied
toward an Associate in Arts Degree. The three credits of required
physical education are not included in this category, however one
physical education credit toward the requirement will be given for
varsity sports. (If the student plays on a varsity team two years,
only one credit will be granted for the sport.) Co-curricular activities
include the Golden Valley Lutheran College Choir, Golden Valley
Singers, Madrigal Singers, Band, Golden Valley Orchestra, Theater
Practice, Christian Service, additional physical education activity
courses after required courses are completed, and activity credits
that a transfer student might bring to Golden Valley Lutheran College. In each case the student must indicate during registration
whether the activity is being taken for credit or non-credit.
Credit by Special Examination
Under special circumstances, a student may seek to gain credits
or exemption by special examination, in accordance with specific
departmental policies.
Admission of Transfer Students
College work done at other accredited institutions may be applied
toward a degree or certificate at Golden Valley Lutheran College.
Transfer students are required to follow regular admissions procedure and submit an official transcript of record from each college
attended. Credit for the college work done, if satisfactory in grade
and applicable toward the College's divisional degree requirements,
will be accepted toward an Associate in Arts Degree. Golden Valley
Lutheran College will not accept D's in transfer except by special
petition approved by the Scholastic Standing Committee.
The actual number of credits earned at other institutions are entered on the student's record, but transferred credits and grade
points are not included in the computation of the grade point average.
Withdrawals from the College
If a student wishes to withdraw from the College during any term,
application for this action must be made in the Office of the
Registrar. An unauthorized withdrawal results in failure in all
courses. Partial refunds on fees already paid will be based on the
time the application was approved. (See page 22.)
34
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
REGISTRATION
New students must report to the College for Orientation Days as
indicated in the calendar in this catalog. Both new and returning
students are required to register on the days indicated in the
calendar.
Registration is not completed until the student has made settlement for the quarter charges at the Bookkeeping Office. Until such
settlement has been made, the student is not eligible to attend any
class or individual lesson.
Changes in Registration
Necessary changes to eliminate conflicts and to correct evident
mistakes in registration may be permitted during the first ten days
of classes, upon the written approval of the Academic Dean, the advisor, and the teachers concerned. A Change of Course Permit for
this purpose may be obtained in the Registrar's Office. After the
tenth day, no regularly scheduled classes may be added except
upon petition and favorable action by the Academic Affairs
Committee. Petition forms are available from the Registrar's Office.
There is a $1.00 fee for each change in registration after the tenth
day of classes.

President's
Greeting
Experiences during the first year after high school play a major role in
one's development of a philosophy of life. This consequently determines
how one lives his or her life.
Golden Valley Lutheran College was established with the main
purpose of providing an opportunity for the student to develop a
philosophy of life founded on Christian convictions.
We strive to provide this foundation for life by emphasizing a
personalized education which includes the opportunity for the study of
both liberal arts and the Scriptures. This is a curriculum we believe will
best help the student understand the world in which he or she will be
living and working.
We ask that those who come have an open mind, a grateful heart and a
desire to learn. Preparation for "making a living" is not sufficient for the
Christian today. Golden Valley Lutheran College is also designed to
provide an education which will serve as preparation for "making a life."
Bernt C. Opsal, President
GENERAL INFORMATION

GENERALI F RMATION
History
Golden Valley Lutheran college is a two-year coeducational liberal arts
college established in 1967 by The Lutheran Bible Institute of Minneapolis. Beginning as a Bible institute in 1919, The Lutheran Bible Institute
moved from St. Paul to Minneapolis in 1929. In 1961 it moved to Golden
Valley, a suburb four miles west of downtown Minneapolis. Through the
years this educational institution has addressed itself to the needs of
people and has sought to meet those needs by establishing programs
appropriate to the times. The College is inter-Lutheran and is not directly
affliated with any particular Lutheran synod. It cooperates with and seeks
to serve all synods and society as a whole. The College admits qualified
men and women from various geographic, cultural, economic, racial, and
religious backgrounds.
The Campus and Its location
Golden Valley Lutheran College is located on a beautiful 30-acre
campus in Golden Valley, a western suburb of Minneapolis. The greater
Twin City area is a cultural, recreational, and sports center of the Upper
Midwest.
The academic life of the students is centered in a large two-level
complex. Classrooms, library, faculty and administrative offices, a prayer
chapel, the College auditorium-gymnasium, cafeteria and lounges are
located in this building.
Four residence halls on campus, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta
dormitories, house approximately 400 students. The facilities include
fireplace lounges, laundry facilities, rooms for prayer and meditation,
and apartments for residence hall directors. Adjacent to Gamma dormitory is the Commons, a student lounge and recreation area. A student
center is located in Delta dormitory.

GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Philosophy and Objectives
Golden Valley Lutheran College is a liberal arts institution with
programs of study in general education, Biblical literature, music,
physical development, and semi-professional training. It seeks to provide
two years of higher education for students interested in the arts and
sciences, and also to give opportunity for a study of the sources of the
Christian faith. Through special activities the College provides the basis
for personal growth and cultural enrichment. Students are encouraged
to participate in community and church activities.
In order to reach these goals, Golden Valley Lutheran College offers
students a choice of one of the following curricula:
1. Completion of a two-year liberal arts education that functions
according to the standards common to the academic enterprise
and that prepares the student to transfer to a four-year college or
university.
2.
Completion of a two-year program that provides the basis for semiprofessional employment in the fields of church staff work,
missions, secretarial work, social service, recreational leadership,
law enforcement and a cooperative computer training program.
3. Study of the Bible and liberal arts in a collegiate setting for
individuals who do not intend to pursue a degree or a semiprofessional program.
Golden Valley Lutheran College strives to supplement these curricular
programs by emphasizing the following objectives with opportunities ...
to develop knowledge of the Judea-Christian world view as set
forth in the literature of the Old and New Testaments and an
analysis on the part of each student concerning his or her basic
beliefs and spiritual commitments.
to develop service motivated standards of conduct for young
adults as they move into the many areas of national life, including
social improvement, community involvement and active membership in Christian congregations.
to appreciate the great works of art, music and the theatre through
courses and cultural events which take place on the campus and in
the metropolitan area.
to attain physical well-being through the application of standards
conducive to good health and through participation in physical
education and sports activities.
to develop personal self-confidence through the determination
of individual goals, the building of relationships with other people
and the experience of companionship in a Christian setting.
GENERAL INFORMATION

Accreditation and Transfer of Credit
Golden Valley Lutheran College received regional accreditation
through the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools in
July of 1978. Thus, entering students can be confident that if they
make a creditable record at Golden Valley Lutheran College, their
credits will normally transfer to other colleges and universities. Students
who are planning to continue their education at a college with limited
transfer of religion credits may register for the religion courses which are
listed in the liberal arts departments. Through the proper selection, most
religion courses are transferable. A student with a satisfactory academic
record can normally complete a bachelor's degree two full academic
years after receiving the Associate in Arts degree from Golden Valley
Lutheran College.

General Guidelines
Golden Valley Lutheran College is oriented to the Christian Gospel
and expects its students to live accordingly.
The College reserves the right to discipline those who conduct
themselves in a manner which is not in the best interest of the individual,
other students, or the College. Each student is expected to be familiar
with the regulations and standards pertaining to student conduct as
described in the Student Life Handbook.
STUDENT LIFE
11
STUDENT LIFE
Campus life at Golden Valley Lutheran College provides activities and
experiences which help develop the whole person. The programs of the
College provide wholesome recreation designed to stimulate spiritual
and intellectual growth. Students are involved in the planning of social
activities which can enrich college life and foster friendships.
New Student Pre-Registration
Prior to the start of the fall quarter, new students are invited to the
campus to participate in pre-registration activities. During this time the
student will have an opportunity to learn more about the College and
meet staff and faculty personnel who will assist in course planning for the
coming year.
Selected sophomores are available to help the new students become
familiar with and adjust to college life.
Counseling Services
The major decisions which students have to make during their early
college years are often difficult and perplexing. Counseling provides a
service which helps students learn ways of solving their academic,
vocational, social, emotional and spiritual problems.
Each student is assigned to a faculty advisor who will assist him or her in
planning an appropriate schedule of classes for each academic term. In
addition to individual counseling, several counseling groups, concerned
with matters such as personal growth, chemical dependency and other
problems, meet regularly. Each student also may make appointments to
visit with instructors, residence hall directors, the deans, the College
nurse or others on the staff who can give assistance.
Study skills assistance is provided for students who need to improve
their reading rate, reading comprehension, spelling, mathematics skills,
study skills, or writing skills. Students seeking this assistance should
register for one of the Personal Orientation courses listed in the Course
Description section.
Health Services
The College has a full-time registered nurse on the staff to provide basic
medical services. Students requiring additional treatment are usually
referred to the Golden Valley Clinic which is located less than a mile from
the campus. Major Twin City hospitals also are readily accessible.

COLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
library
The iibrary, iocated on the ground fioor of the Main buiiding provides
a variety of materials and services to support the college curricula. There
are over 30,000 volumes, 247 periodicals, local and national newspapers,
and a substantial vertical file in the collection. In addition, there is a
sizeable audiovisual collection including phonograph records and
cassettes, as well as filmstrips with necessary listening and viewing
equipment available to the students.
Insurance
The College does not assume any responsibility for the loss of or
damage to personal property. Many families have homeowners policies
that will cover losses of family members at college.
Housing Services
Golden Valley Lutheran College is primarily a residential college. If
space is available, full-time students live in the College residence halls.
E~ceptions are those who commute from their homes, or who work for
their board and room. All students living on campus are required to
participate in the cafeteria program which provides three meals a day,
seven days a week. The price fixed for the weekly 21 meal plan is set with
the knowledge that a certain percentage of the meals will be missed
during a week. Students who are commuting may purchase either their
noon or evening meal in the College cafeteria.
Student Government and Social life
A forum for student expression and student-initiated improvements in
campus life is provided by a Student Senate chosen from the student
body. This representative group serves as a coordinator of studentfaculty relations. It seeks continually to improve and make student life
more enjoyable.
The social program of the College is under the supervision of the
Student Activities Commission (SAC). Homecoming, Sno-Daze and the
Spring Banquet are examples of the many social activities available.
Disciplinary problems are arbitrated by the student Judiciary Board.
Religious life
As an institution of Christian higher education, Golden Valley Lutheran
College believes that religious life activities are an integral part of its
program. Therefore the College provides regularly scheduled chapel
services, campus worship services, transportation to local church services,
all-campus devotions, dormitory devotions and Christian student organizations. Special programs include the Days of Prayer & Praise and the
Christmas Festival of the Christ Child. Religious activities are co-ordinated
by the faculty Chapel & Special Events Committee and by a student Faith &
Life Commission.
STUDENT LIFE
13
Many students also participate in Christian Service activities in the
community and in world mission activities. The College has a Fellowship
of Christian Athletes chapter in which many students take an active part.
There also is an opportunity to serve on outreach teams which travel to
present the Gospel in word and song.
Chapel
All classes are dismissed each morning for a 25-minute chapel
program. These programs are varied in content. Some are in the nature of
worship services conducted by students, faculty, or guest speakers, while
others include films, lectures, drama, music or other special convocation
programs.
The chapel service is the heart and center of our collegiate program. It
is here that messages are shared from the Scriptures, and opportunity is
given for worship, intellectual stimulation and the development of a
sense of community.
Each student is encouraged to participate in the chapel services of the
college community and to attend public worship every Sunday.
Student Use of Automobiles
Parking space is limited on campus. Those students who do not need
an automobile for commuting or transportation to or from work are
urged not to bring a vehicle to college. Those who do need an
automobile or motorcycle must secure a parking permit through the
business office. The Dean of Students has the right to terminate a permit
at any time if circumstances warrant such action. The College assumes no
responsibility for damage, theft, or vandalism involving student vehicles.
Alcohol and Drug Abuse
Golden Valley Lutheran College strongly discourages all students from
using alcohol and/or mood altering drugs. Students possessing, using, or
under the influence of alcohol or drugs on campus, in college-approved
housing, or at college-sponsored events both on and off campus will be
subject to disciplinary action. In instances where college officials are
informed that Golden Valley Lutheran College sturlents have caused a
disturbance off campus in connection with the use of alcohol or drugs
the College reserves the right to take disciplinary action.
Golden Valley Lutheran College upholds all federal and state statutes
pertaining to the illegal use of alcohol or drugs. A student who uses,
possesses, or persuades someone else to use alcohol or drugs in violation
of the law will be subject to disciplinary action. The College's action will
be determined by the circumstances surrounding each individual case.
The College provides counseling services and support groups for those
with chemical dependency problems.

Athletics
Through the physical education and athletic prograiT1S the College
seeks to teach the value of good health and physical fitness, to cultivate
interest in the proper use of leisure time, to develop character and good
sportsmanship and to give instruction in various sports and games used in
recreaf1onal acf1vHies. Intercollegiate athletic competition for men is
available in football, baseball, basketball, wrestling, soccer, track, marathon, and cross country. Women may participate in intercollegiate
basketball, cross country, softball, volleyball, marathon and track competition. The College is a member of the Minnesota Community College
Conference, and the National Junior College Athletic Association.
Intramural programs are available for both men and women. These
include activities such as volleyball, basketball, broomball, softball, etc.
Music
Golden Valley Lutheran College is sensitive to the cultural and spir"1tual
values that music contributes to our society. It desires, therefore, to
cultivate and nurture student interest and participation in music by
giving opportunity for self-expression as a member of a performing
group. These groups include the Golden Valley Lutheran College Choir,
a selected group of 65 voices; the Madrigal Singers, a smaller ensemble
which specializes in certain types of music literature; the Golden Valley
Singers, a women's chorus; a pep band and concert band; the Golden
Valley Orchestra, a community and college organization; and various
vocal and instrumental ensembles. In addition to specific courses in the
field of music, the College offers private voice and instrumental
instruction.
The location of the College in the Twin City area provides opportunity
for students to gain a new appreciation of the fine arts. Community
concerts, the Minnesota Orchestra, the Minneapolis Civic Orchestra, the
St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, and programs given by other colleges
including the University of Minnesota, offer continuing opportunities
for cultural enrichment.
Drama
The drama program at Golden Valley Lutheran College is two-fold in its
purpose. It attempts to expose the student to the inner workings of the
College theatre, and it seeks to foster a sense of appreciation for
dramatics by encouraging active participation in the field.

COSTS
19
COSTS
Student Costs 1983-84
The following explains the basic costs to the student and the financial aids that are available to assist the student in meeting these costs.
The College reserves the right to change the costs of tuition, board, room
or fees at any time.
The charges that are made to students for tuition, room and board do
not adequately cover the costs of operating the College. Approximately
35% of the cost of operation must come from gifts and grants. In the
present budget, this amounts to over one million dollars a year.
Therefore, over and above all help given, each student receives the
equivalent of a $2,000 scholarship per year in order to cover the total
expenses of the operation.
The College does not receive direct financial support from any
denomination or Lutheran synod. Gift income is received from congregations, organizations and foundations, and by matching funds from
Lutheran Brotherhood and other corporations.
Most of the funds, however, come as individual gifts from alumni,
parents and friends of the College. Over 600 people are supporting the
College through the INASMUCH program whereby they have pledged
and/or paid from $1,000 to $25,000 over a three year period. As we make
our needs known, the Lord answers our prayers through the gifts of these
many friends.

FINANCIAL AID
23
Fl ANCIAL AID
Golden Valley Lutheran College is concerned about the financial
problems of students. In order to assist students who have inadequate
financial resources, the Director of Financial Aid coordinates a program
of financial aid based on a student's academic achievement, special
abilities, and financial need.
Basically, there are three sources of financial aid:
Federal Government
State of Minnesota
Golden Valley Lutheran College
There are three forms of aid:
Gift Aid
Loans
Student Employment
All types of financial assistance are made for only one academic year.
Students, however, may expect to receive their financial assistance for
the second year if they remain in good academic and personal standing
and if their financial need continues. If a student withdraws during any
quarter, he or she forfeits the entire amount of gift aid that has been
awarded from College funds for that quarter. He or she also forfeits
proportionate amounts of aid awarded from state or federal funds for
that quarter.

GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Gift Aid
Gift Aid is a categorical name given to all awards from GVLC pi us the Peii
Grant (formerly BEOG), Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant
(SEOG), and the Minnesota State Scholarship/Grant Program (MSS/G).
Such awards do not have to be repaid.
Pell Grant: This grant is provided by the Federal Government based on
financial need. The amount is derived from uniform methodology, using
family and student financial information. All students applying for
financial assistance at GVLC are required to apply for this grant.
Golden Valley Lutheran College President's Scholarship: This scholarship is available to the gifted student who has demonstrated outstanding
leadership in a given field and attained an unusual degree of academic
excellence. A recipient must be ranked in the upper five percent of his or
her high school or college class and be willing to provide leadership in
music, sports, theatre or other college related activities. The President's
Scholarship may be awarded without regard to financial need, but if a
recipient has a demonstrated financial need, the Federal and State
guidelines for financial assistance must be followed. The amount of the
scholarship may vary depending upon circumstances.
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant: Awarded by the Federal Government through the College, these funds allow GVLC to make
awards of $200 or more to students who show financial need based on
uniform methodology.
Golden Valley Lutheran College Gift Aid: Includes all awards granted
for scholarship, athletics, Christian service, drama and music as well as
the GVLC financial need grants. These awards are based on demonstrated excellence in specified areas and financial need as defined by the
ACT (American College Testing) Family Financial Statement. The GVLC
Gift Aid awarded to new students is based on their high school
achievement, while the Gift Aid awarded to returning students is based
on participation and achievement while enrolled at GVLC. One-third of
the award is credited to the student's account each quarter.
Minnesota State Scholarship/Grant Program: Available to qualified
Minnesota residents each year depending upon financial need. All
Minnesota residents who apply for financial aid at GVLC are expected to
apply for this aid.
Other Grants: There are a number of grants and scholarships available
from other sources. The student is encouraged to consult his or her high
school counselor and the Director of Financial Aid at GVLC for other
federal, state, and community-sponsored scholarships and grants.
FINANCIAL AID
25
Deferred Payment loans
National Direct Student Loans (NDSL) - Federal NDSL Loans are
available to students who have financial need and have been accepted
for admission to Golden Valley Lutheran College. Repayment and
interest do not begin until nine months after the student completes his or
her studies. The interest rate is 5% (APR), and repayment may be
extended over a ten-year period. Part of the loan is forgiven if the student
enters certain fields of teaching or specified military duty.
Guaranteed Student Loans: The Student may borrow up to $2,500 per
year from a bank and the federal government will pay the interest during
the time the student is in college. The borrower pays the principal and 9%
(APR) interest during the repayment period.
When a bank will not give the loan, the student may borrow up to
$2,500 per year from the Minnesota State Student Loan Program. First
year students are limited to $1,500 per loan, but may apply for a second
loan under the $2,500 limit. The federal government will pay the interest
during the time the student is in college. The borrower pays the principal
and 9% (APR) interest during the repayment period. These loans
are processed through the GVLC Financial Aid Office.
Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students: When necessary an application can be made for a Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS).
The parent can apply for up to $3,000 per academic year to be used for
educational expenses. The interest rate on this loan is 12% (APR) and
repayment must begin 60 days after disbursement, with terms to be
worked out with the lender. The Financial Aid Office has a list of private
institutions which are participating in this program. Our list, however, is
incomplete and parents are free to inquire at the lending institution of
their choice.
Lutheran Brotherhood Loan - If a member of the student's family
holds a Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance policy, a student may borrow
up to $2,500 per year from the Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance Society
at the same terms described under Federal Insured Student Loans.
Student Employment
College Work-Study Program - Golden Valley Lutheran College
participates in State and Federal Work-Study Programs. The student's
eligibility depends on his or her financial need and individual skills.
Student Part-time Employment - The College offers a variety of
campus jobs with moderate pay. In addition, there are numerous parttime employment positions available in the Twin Cities and surrounding
suburban areas. The Student Employment Office maintains a listing of
opportunities available.
26
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Procedure for Applying for Financial
A :...J
tቢuu
Any student wishing to apply for financial aid must first make proper
application through the admissions department and be admitted to the
College.
The basic forms used to determine financial aid need are the Famil)"'
Financial Statement (FFS) from ACT, or the Financial Aid Form (FAF) from
CSS. Many qualified students fail to receive financial assistance because
they neglect to get their financial statements submitted on time.
Minnesota residents must file their FFS by April 1, 1983 to be eligible for
priority consideration from the Minnesota State Scholarship/Grant
Program.
As soon as all pertinent information has been assembled, the Financial
Aid Office sends the student an aid package. The student must
accept the aid package within 15 days to be guaranteed the funds.
Students are expected to contribute part of their summer earnings
toward the cost of education. The Federal Government also has
established an amount that each family is expected to contribute to the
educational expenses of a son or daughter.
We believe that Federal and State assistance programs, plus the
financial aid available through Golden ValJey Lutheran College, places
two years of quality college education within the reach of all who desire
it.

for any Lutheran American minority person who is a member of a
Lutheran church, or is an immigrant who has been sponsored by a

ACADEMIC PROGRAM
29
ACADEMIC PROGRAM
Golden Valley Lutheran College grants three types of two-year
completion awards: the Associate in Arts Degree (Liberal Arts and
Transfer Program), the Associate in Arts Degree (Specialized Program),
and the Junior College Certificate. A one-year Vocational Certificate is
awarded for completion of a selected one-year vocational curriculum.
Golden Valley Lutheran College is a liberal arts institution which allows
a student to concentrate in the areas of general education, Biblical and
theological studies, or a specific vocation.
Students who plan to earn a four-year degree are encouraged to satisfy
general education requirements while attending Golden Valley Lutheran
College. When this suggestion is followed, students may concentrate on
their major and other requirements during the last two years of college.
General education courses invite the student to learn about the world,
the scientific method, the society in which he or she lives, the fine arts
and humanities, and the eternal values perceived in Biblical and
theological studies.
General Academic Information
Credit load and Student Classification
A normal credit load consists of 16 hours per quarter. Exceptions to this
credit load will be considered in consultation with a student's academic
advisor. Permission to take more than 18 credits must be granted by the
Academic Dean. Individuals enrolled for 12 or more credit-hours per
quarter are considered full time students. Individuals with less than 12
credit-hours are considered part-time students. A student who has
earned less than 45 cumulative credits is classified as a freshman. A
student who has earned 45 or more cumulative credits is classified as a
sophomore.
The auditing of courses is not encouraged since classroom capacities
are needed by students interested in earning college credit. Auditors are
required to do all work assigned by the instructor and tuition costs are the
same as costs for credit.
30
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Grading and Honor Point System
A student's grade point average is computed at the end of each
quarter. The grade point average is determined by dividing the number
of earned honor points by the number of earned credits. Honor points
are computed by the following scale:
Honor Points
Per Credit
Grade

4
for A.A. Degree

*Incomplete work, must be made up satisfactorily by the end of the
fourth week of the next term the student attends. If a student desires an
extension beyond four weeks, he or she must secure approval of the
instructor involved and must petition the Scholastic Standing Committee
for the extension. If the work is not completed, the grade becomes an F.
**Withdrawals after the third week of classes and through mid-term
are indicated by W or WF (to be determined by the instructor); and after
the mid-term and until the last regularly scheduled class day of each
quarter by a W, WF, or Fas determined by the instructor. A student may
not drop a course after final examinations begin.
***The grading system of Sand U is used only for those courses which
are taken to meet the requirements of the Junior College Certificate. An
S counts as two honor points per credit for the Junior College Certificate
only and will not be credited toward an Associate in Arts Degree. The U
grade yields no honor points or credits.
Academic Honors
An Honors List composed of those students who have earned a grade
point average of 3.00-3.49 is compiled at the end of each term. Those
students who achieve a grade point average of 3.50 or better are included
on the Dean's List.
ACADEMIC PROGRAM
31
Academic Progress
In accordance with policies established by the administration and
faculty, a student will be counseled in relation to academic progress
toward the Associate in Arts degree: (a) when a student's grade point
average is less than 2.00; (b) when his or her transcript shows two or more
grades of I (Incomplete) in one quarter. If a student's grade point average
falls below 1.50 he or she will be placed on academic probation until the
grade point average is raised to 1.50 or above. The College reserves the
right to dismiss a student if his or her academic performance is regarded
as unsatisfactory.
Eligibility for Varsity Sports
Eligibility rules for participation in varsity sports at Golden Valley
Lutheran College conform to the National Junior College Athletic
Association eligibility rules. In general, in order to participate in a varsity
sport, a student must be a full-time (12 credits) student during the
qualifying and competing quarter. During the qualifying quarter, he or
she must earn a grade point average of 1.5 or better in at least 10 hours of
course work listed in the College Catalog. Freshmen enrolled at GVLC in
their first quarter of college are exempt from the qualifying quarter
requirements. A student's eligibility is reviewed each quarter and all
hours of a complete course (subject) must be counted in computing a
student's grade point average. (See NJCAA Eligibility Rules.)
No student shall be certified on an eligibility list until the College has
received the final transcript indicating the high school graduation date
and any college transcript(s), if another college has been previously
attended. The responsibility to obtain any such transcripts rests upon the
individual student.
Credit by Spedal Examination
Under special circumstances, a student may seek to gain credits or
exemption by special examination, in accordance with specific departmental policies.
Transfer Students
The actual number of credits earned at other institutions are entered
on the student's record, but transferred credits and grade points are not
included in the computation of the grade point average.
Class Attendance
Each student is responsible for regular class attendence and for
completing work as required in each class. With respect to unexcused
absences, excused absences, or make-up work, it is the student's
responsibi I ity to learn the policy of each instructor. The instructor's
policy is usually stated in the course outline. At the discretion of the
instructor, a student may be withdrawn from a course for an excessive
number of unexcused absences or uncompleted assignments.
32
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Independent Study
A maximum of six credits in Independent Study may be applied toward
the Associate in Arts Degree. The student must meet the criteria
established by the department and have the approval of the chairperson of
the department in which he plans to do the study. Standards require a 3.0
average in the department in which Independent Study is taken, a limit of
four credits per term in Independent Study, and a demonstration of
relevance to the student's academic objectives. Independent Study
applications are available in the Registrar's Office.
Bible and English Requirements
All students enrolled for eight credits or more are required to take at
least one Bible course each quarter that they attend classes at the
College. A student who transfers from another college is not required to
complete the full 18 credits in Bible but is required to take one course
each quarter while enrolled at the College. All Bible core courses listed in
the Department of Biblical Studies will satisfy this requirement.
All degree seeking students are required to register for English until
the sequence, English 111and112 - College Composition, and English
113 - Introduction to Literature, has been completed. Placement in
English 100, 110, or 111 will be determined by specific English Placement
tests administered to all new students during student orientation in the
fall, or at the time of their registration for winter or for spring quarters.
Co-Curricular Activity Credits
A total of nine credits in co-curricular activities may be applied toward
an Associate in Arts Degree. The three credits of required physical
education are not included in this category. Co-curricular activities
include all music ensembles, Theatre Practice, Christian Service, additional physical education activity courses after the three required courses
are completed, and activity credits that a transfer student might bring to
the College.
With regard to co-curricular activities other than varsity sports, a
student who earns a grade point average of less than 1.5 for a quarter
may have co-curricular activities curtailed or programs of study reduced,
at the discretion of the Scholastic Standing Committee.
Orientation and Registration
All students must report to the College for Orientation Days as
indicated in the calendar in this catalog.
The orientation period includes a series of placement and personality
tests which are used to provide a more effective placement and
counseling service for students. Both new and returning students are
required to register on the days indicated in the calendar.
Registration is not completed until the student has made settlement for
the quarter charges at the Bookkeeping Office.
ACADEMIC PROGRAM
33
Changes in Registration
Necessary changes to eliminate conflicts and to correct evident
mistakes in registration may be permitted during the first ten days of
classes, with the written approval of the academic advisor. A Change of
Course Permit for this purpose may be obtained in the Registrar's Office.
After the tenth day, no regularly scheduled classes may be added except
by special permission.
Repeating a Course
A student may repeat only courses in which a grade of Dor F has been
received. The intention to repeat a course must be certified at the time of
registration for the course. If a student repeats a course in which a Dor F
grade has been received, only the more recent grade and credit earned
will be included in the computation of the grade point average. Both
grades, however, will remain on the student's permanent record.
Withdrawals from the College
A student who wishes to withdraw from the College during any term,
must make application for this action in the Office of the Registrar.
Failure to comply with this regulation may deprive a student of refund
privileges and result in an F grade in all classes. Partial refunds on fees
already paid will be based on the date the application was signed and
returned to the Registrar's Office.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
35
GRADUATION
REQUIREMENTS
The responsibility rests with the student for seeing that his or her
program includes all requirements for graduation.
Applicants for admission should study the requirements for graduation outlined in this section of the catalog and plan their college
program as a whole as early as possible. A student who is in doubt about
how certain requirements are interpreted should consult with his or her
academic advisor, the Registrar, or the Academic Dean. When circumstances might warrant a justifiable modification in a requirement, a
petition (obtained from the Registrar) should be submitted to the
Committee on Academic Affairs.

PRESIDENT'S GREETING
5
President's
Greeting
Experiences during the first year after high school play a major
role in one's development of a philosophy of life, which consequently determines how one lives his life and what he gets out of it.
Golden Valley Lutheran College was established with the main
purpose of providing an opportunity for the student to develop a
philosophy of life founded on Christian convictions.
We strive to provide this foundation for life by emphasizing a personalized education which includes the opportunity for the study of
both liberal arts and the Scriptures, a curriculum which we feel will
best help the student understand the world in which he will be living
and working.
We ask that those who come have an open mind, a grateful heart,
and a desire to learn. Preparation for "making a living" is not sufficient for the Christian today. Golden Valley Lutheran College is also
designed to provide an education which will serve as preparation for
"making a life."
Bernt C. Opsal, President
GENERAL INFORMATION

General Information
HISTORY
Golden Valley Lutheran College is a two-year coeducational
liberal arts college established in 1967 by The Lutheran Bible Institute of Minneapolis which had been engaged in adult Christian education since 1919. Beg inning as a Bible school in 1919, The Lutheran
Bible Institute moved from St. Paul to Minneapolis in 1929, and to
Golden Valley, a suburb four miles west of downtown Minneapolis,
in 1961. Through the years this educational institution has addressed itself to the needs of young people and has sought to meet
those needs by establishing programs appropriate to the times. The
College is inter-Lutheran and is not directly affiliated with any particular Lutheran synod. It cooperates with and seeks to serve all
synods and society as a whole. The College admits qualified men
and women from various geographic, cultural, economic, racial,
and religious backgrounds.
THE CAMPUS AND ITS LOCATION
Golden Valley Lutheran College is located on a beautiful 30-acre
campus in Golden Valley, a western suburb of Minneapolis which is
the cultural, recreational, and sports center of the Upper Midwest.
The academic life of the students is centered in a large two-level
complex. Classrooms, library, faculty and administrative offices, a
prayer chapel, the College auditorium-gymnasium, cafeteria and
lounges are located in this building.
Four residence halls on campus, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta
dormitories, house approximately 400 students. The facilities include fireplace lounges, laundry facilities, rooms for prayer and

meditation, and apartments for residence counselors. Adjacent to
Gamma dormitory is the Commons, a student lounge and recreation area. A student center with a gri!! is located in De!ta dormitory.
PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES
Golden Valley Lutheran College is a liberal arts institution with a
program of studies in the areas of general education, Biblical literature, music, physical development, and semi-professional training.
Its primary purpose is to provide two years of higher education for
students interested in the arts and sciences, and also provide
opportunity for a study of the sources of the Christian faith.
Through special activities the College provides the basis for personal growth and cultural enrichment, and encourages students to
participate in community and church activities.
In order to reach these goals, Golden Valley Lutheran College offers students a choice of one of the following curricula:
1. Completion of a two-year liberal arts education that functions
according to the standards common to the academic enterprise and that prepares the student to transfer to a four-year
college or university.
2. The completion of a two-year program provides the basis for
semi-professional employment in the fields of church staff
work, missions, secretarial work, social service, recreational
leadership and a cooperative computer training program.
3. Study of the Bible and liberal arts in a collegiate setting for
individuals who do not intend to pursue a degree or semi-professional programs.
Golden Valley Lutheran College strives to supplement these curricular programs by emphasizing the following objectives with
opportunities ...
. . . to develop knowledge of the Hebrew-Christian world view as
set forth in the literature of the Old and New Testaments and
an analysis on the part of each student concerning his or her
basic beliefs and spiritual commitments .
. . . to develop service motivated standards of conduct for young
adults as they move into the many areas of national life, including social improvement, community involvement and
active membership in Christian congregations .
. . . to appreciate the great works of art, music and the theatre
through courses and cultural events on the campus and
through the extensive presentations offered by the metropolitan surroundings of the College.
GENERAL INFORMATION

... to attain physical well-being through the application of standards conducive to good health and participation in physical
education and sports activities .
. . . to develop personal self-confidence through the determination
of individual goals, the building of relationships with other
people and the experience of companionship in a Christian
setting.
ACCREDITATION, AFFILIATIONS AND
TRANSFER OF CREDIT
Golden Valley Lutheran College received regional accreditation
through the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools in
July of 1978. Thus, entering students can be confident that if they

Transfer of Religion Courses
With reference to transfer of religion courses, it should be noted
that most colleges and universities accept our courses in religion.
Students who are planning to continue their education at a college
with limited transfer of religion credits may register for the religion
courses which are listed in the liberal arts departments. Through
the proper selection, most religion courses are transferable, and a
student with a satisfactory academic record can normally complete
a Bachelor's degree two full academic years after receiving the A.A.
degree from Golden Valley Lutheran College.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Golden Valley Lutheran College is oriented to the Christian Gospel and expects its students to live accordingly.
The College reserves the right to discipline those who conduct
themselves in a manner which is not in the best interest of the
10
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
individual, other students, or the College. Each student is expected
to be familiar with the regulations and standards pertaining to
student conduct as described in the Student Life Handbook.
Chapel
All classes are dismissed each morning for a 25-minute chapel
program. These programs are varied in content. Some are in the
nature of worship services conducted by students, faculty, or
guest speakers, while others include films, lectures, drama, music
or other special convocation programs.
The chapel service is the heart and center of our collegiate
program. It is here that challenges are made from the Scriptures,
where announcements of great significance are made, where there
is an opportunity for worship, inspiration and intellectual
stimulation and where a sense of community is developed.
Each student is encouraged to participate fully in the daily
chapel services of the College community. He or she is also
encouraged to attend public worship every Sunday in the church
of one's choice.
Student Use of Automobiles
Since parking space is limited on campus, those students who do
not need an automobile for commuting or transportation to or from
work are urged not to bring a vehicle to college. Those who do
need an automobile or motorcycle must secure a parking permit
through the business office. The Dean of Students shall have the
right to terminate a permit at any time if, in his opinion, circumstances
warrant such action. The College assumes no responsibility for
damage, theft, or vandalism involving student vehicles.
Alcohol and Drug Abuse
Golden Valley Lutheran College strongly discourages all students
from using alcohol and/or mood altering drugs. Students possessing, using, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs on campus, in
college-approved housing, or at college-sponsored events both on
and off campus will be subject to disciplinary action. In instances
where college officials are informed that Golden Valley Lutheran
College students have caused a disturbance off campus in connection with the use of alcohol or drugs the College reserves the right to
take disciplinary action.
Golden Valley Lutheran College upholds all federal and state
statutes pertaining to the illegal use of alcohol or drugs. A student
who uses, possesses, or persuades someone else to use alcohol or
drugs in violation of the laws will be subject to disciplinary action.
The college's action will be determined by the circumstances
surrounding each individual case.
The College provides counseling services and support groups

NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION
Prior to the start of the fall quarter, new students are invited to
the campus to participate in orientation activities. During this time
the student will have an opportunity to learn more about the College
and meet staff and faculty personnel who will assist in course planning for the coming year.
The orientation period also includes a series of ability and
personality tests which are used to help provide a more effective
counseling service for students. Selected upperclassmen are available to help the new students become familiar with and adjust to
college life.
COUNSELING SERVICES
The major decisions which students have to make during their
early college years are often difficult and perplexing. Counseling
provides a service which helps students learn ways of solving their
academic, vocational, social, emotional and spiritual problems.
The College counselors are available to assist students in
clarifying or establishing appropriate educational and vocational
goals, to help the students evaluate aptitude and interests, to help
them plan programs in preparation for further study, and to help
them deal with personal and/or emotional problems.
Each student is assigned to a faculty advisor who will assist him
or her in planning an appropriate schedule of classes for each
academic term or with other aspects of college life. In addition to
individual counseling, several counseling groups, concerned with
matters such as personal growth, chemical dependency and other
12
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
problems, meet regularly. Beyond the service described, each
student may make appointments to visit with instructors,
residence hall directors, the deans, the Co!!ege nurse or others on
the staff who can Qive assistance if difficulties are encountered.
Study skills assistance is provided for students who need to improve their reading rate, reading comprehension, spelling, mathematics skills, study skills, or writing skills. Students seeking this
assistance should register for one of the Personal Orientation
courses described on page 63.
HEAL TH SERVICES
The College has a registered nurse on the staff to provide basic
medical services. Students requiring additional treatment are usually referred to the Golden Valley Clinic which is located less than a
mile from the campus.
INSURANCE
The personal property of staff members and students is not
covered by insurance and the College does not assume any
responsibility for the loss of such property. Many families have
homeowners policies that will cover losses of family members at
college.
HOUSING SERVICES
Golden Valley Lutheran College is primarily a residential college.
Provided space is available, all full-time students live in the College
residence halls. Exceptions are those who commute from their
homes, or who work for their board and room. All students living on
campus are required to participate in the cafeteria program which
provides three meals a day, seven days a week. The price fixed for

STUDENT GOVERNMENT AND SOCIAL LIFE
Student self-government is carried out by a Committee on

Student Judiciary Board. The social program of the College is
under the supervision of the CSA. Homecoming, Sno-Daze, and the
Spring Banquet are examples of the many social activities

RELIGIOUS LIFE
As an institution of Christian higher education, Golden Valley
Lutheran College believes that sound religious life activities must

Praise and the Christmas Festival of the Christ Child.

activities. Intercollegiate athletic competition for men is available
in football, baseball, basketball, wrestling, track, marathon, and
cross country. The College is a member of the Minnesota
Community College Conference, and the National Junior College
Athletic Association.
Women may participate in intercollegiate basketball, cross
country, softball, volleyball, marathon and track competition. An
intramural program is available for both men and women.
MUSIC
Golden Valley Lutheran College is sensitive to the cultural and
spiritual value that music plays in the life of any society. It desires,
therefore, to cultivate and nurture student interest and participation
in music by giving opportunity for self-expression as a member of a
performing group. These organizations include the Golden Valley
Lutheran College Choir, a selected group of 65 voices; the Madrigal
Singers, a smaller ensemble which specializes in certain types of
music literature; the Golden Valley Singers, a women's chorus; a
pep band and concert band; the Golden Valley Orchestra, a community and College organization; and various vocal and instrumental
ensembles. In addition to specific courses in the field of music, the
College gives opportunity for private lessons in voice and instrumental study.
The location of Golden Valley Lutheran College within the Twin
City area makes it easy for students to gain a new appreciation of
the fine arts. Various community concerts, the Minnesota Orchestra, the Minneapolis Civic Orchestra, and programs given by other
colleges and the University of Minnesota, offer continuing opportunities for cultural enrichment.

the financial aids that are available to assist the student in meeting
these costs. The College reserves the right to change the costs of

The college does not receive direct financial support from any denomination or Lutheran synod. Many of the gifts that come in are
through legacies, matching gifts from corporations and Lutheran
Brotherhood, Minnesota Private College Contract, and congregations and congregational organizations. Most of the funds,
however, come from individual gifts. These contributors include
alumni, parents and friends of the college. There are two programs
to which people have committed themselves. They are the Loyalty
program, where one may pledge $400 to be paid over a four-year
period, and the Inasmuch program, where one may pledge $1,000 or
more to be paid over a four-year period. We believe that the Lord
answers prayer as we tell our friends what our needs are and ask
them to join us in participation by prayer and by giving.

Gift Support
The charges that are made to students for tuition, room and
board do not adequately cover the costs of operating the co!!ege.
Approximately 35% of the cost of operation must come from gifts

dollars a year. Therefore, over and above all help given, each
student receives the equivalent of a $1850 scholarship per year
in order to cover the total expenses of the operation.

FINANCIAL AID
23
Financial Aid
Golden Valley Lutheran College is concerned with the financial
problems of students who wish to continue their formal
education. In order to assist students with inadequate financial
resources, the Financial Aid Committee coordinates a program of
financial aid based on the student's academic achievement,
special abilities, and financial need.
Basically, there are three sources of financial aid:
Federal Government
State of Minnesota
Golden Valley Lutheran College
There are three forms of aid:
Gift Aid
Loans
Student Employment
All types of financial assistance are made for only one academic
year, but students may expect to receive their financial assistance
for the second year if they remain in good academic and personal
standing and if their financial need continues. If a student withdraws during the quarter, he or she forfeits the entire amount of gift
aid that was awarded from College funds for that quarter as well as
proportionate amounts awarded from state or federal funds for that
quarter.
GIFT AID
Gift Aid is a categorial name given to all awards from GVLC
plus the Pell Grant (formerly BEOG), Supplemental Education
Opportunity Grant (SEOG), and th'e Minnesota State Scholarship/Grant Program (MSS/G). Such awards do not have to be
repaid.
24
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Pell Grant:This grant is provided by the Federal Government
based on financial need. The amount is derived from uniform
methodology, using family and student financial information. All
students applying for financial assistance at GVLC are required to
apply for this grant.
Golden Valley Lutheran College President's Scholarship: This
scholarship is available only to the gifted student who has
demonstrated outstanding leadership in a given field and attained
an unusual degree of academic excellence. A recipient must be
ranked in the upper ten percent of his or her high school or college
class and be willing to provide leadership in music, sports, theatre
or other college related activities. The President's Scholarship may
be awarded without regard to financial need but if a recipient has a
demonstrated financial need, the Federal and State guidelines for
financial assistance must be followed. The amount of the
scholarship may vary depending upon circumstances.
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant: Awarded by the
Federal Government through the College, these funds allow GVLC
to make awards of $200 or more to students who show financial
need based on uniform methodology.
Golden Valley Lutheran College Gift Aid: Includes all awards
granted for scholarship, athletics, Christian service, drama and
music as well as the GVLC financial need grants. These awards are
based on demonstrated excellence in specified areas and financial
need as defined by the ACT (American College Testing) Family
Financial Statement. The GVLC GiftAid awarded to new students is
based on their high school achievement, while the Gift Aid awarded
to returning students is based on participation and achievement
while enrolled at GVLC. One-third of the award is credited to the
student's account each quarter.
Minnesota State Scholarship/Grant Program: Available to
qualified Minnesota residents each year depending upon financial
need. All Minnesota residents who apply for financial aid at GVLC
are expected to apply for this aid. Contact your high school
counselor or the GVLC Financial Aid Office for exact information
because requirements and deadlines vary from year to year.
Other Grants: There are a number of grants and scholarships
available from other sources. The student is encouraged to consult
his/ her high school counselor and the Director of Financial Aid at
GVLC for other federal, state, and community-sponsored scholarships and grants.
FINANCIAL AID
25
DEFERRED PAYMENT LOANS
National Direct Student Loans (NDSL)- Federal NDSL Loans
are available to students who have financial need and have been
accepted for ad mission to Golden Valley Lutheran College.
Repayment and interest do not begin until nine months after the
student completes his/her studies. The interest rate is 5%, and
repayment may be extended over a ten-year period. Part of the
loan is forgiven if the student enters certain fields of teaching or
specified military duty.
Guaranteed Student Loans: The Student may borrow up to
$2,500 per year at 9% interest from a bank and the federal
government will pay the interest during the time the student is in
college. The borrower pays the principal and 9% interest during the
repayment period.
When a bank will not give the loan, the student may borrow up to
$2,500 per year at 9% interest from the Minnesota State Student
Loan program. First year students are limited to$1,500 per loan, but
may apply for a second loan under the $2,500 limit. The federal
government will pay the interest during the time the student is in
college. The borrower pays the principal and 9% interest during the
repayment period. These loans are processed through the GVLC
Financial Aid Office.
Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students: When necessary an
application can be made for a Parent Loan for Undergraduate
Students (PLUS). The parent can apply for up to $3,000 per
academic year to be used for educational expenses. This is a 14%
loan and repayment must begin 60 days after disbursement, with
terms to be worked out with the lender. The Financial Aid Office has
a list of private institutions which are participating in this program.
Our list, however, is incomplete and parents are free to inquire at
the lending institution of their choice.
Lutheran Brotherhood Loan - If a member of the student's
family holds a Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance policy, a student
may borrow up to $2,500 per year from the Lutheran Brotherhood
Insurance Society at the same terms described under Federal
Insured Student Loans.
STUDENT EMPLOYMENT
College Work-Study Program-Golden Valley Lutheran College
participates in State and Federal Work-Study Programs. The
student's eligibility depends on his/her financial need and individual skills.
26
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Student Part-time Employment- The College offers a variety of
campus jobs with moderate pay. In addition, there are numerous
part-time employment positions available in the Twin Cities and
surrounding suburban areas. The Student Employment Office maintains a listing of opportunities available.
PROCEDURE FOR APPLYING FOR FINANCIAL AID
Any student wishing to apply for financial aid must first make
proper application through the admissions department and be
admitted to the college.
The basic forms to determine financial aid need are the Family
Financial Statement (FFS) from ACT, or the Financial Aid Form
(FAF) from CSS. Many qualified students fail to receive financial
assistance because they neglect to get their financial statements
submitted on time. Minnesota residents must file their FFS by April
1, 1982 to be eligible for priority consideration from the Minnesota
State Scholarship/Grant Program.
As soon as all pertinent information has been assembled, our
Office of Student Financial Aid sends the applicant student an "Aid
Package." A student must accept the aid package within 15 days to
be guaranteed the funds .
Because of the many Federal and State changes in financial
assistance to students, it is necessary to expect students to
contribute part of their summer earnings toward the cost of
education. The Federal Government also has established an
amount that each family is expected to contribute to the
educational expenses of a son or daughter.
In summary, it is believed that Federal and State assistance
programs, plus the financial aid available through Golden Valley
Lutheran College, places two years of quality college education
within the reach of all who desire it.
SCHOLARSHIPS
The AAL Lutheran Campus Scholarship Program is for
students who hold a certificate of membership and insurance
from the Aid Association for Lutherans. The awards are based on
academic achievement, Christian character and professional
promise.
The AAL Lutheran American Minority Scholarship Program is
available for any Lutheran American minority person who is a
member of a Lutheran church, or is an immigrant who has been

THE ACADEMIC PROGRAM
29
The Academic Program
Golden Valley Lutheran College grants three types of two-year
completion awards: the Associate in Arts Degree (Liberal Arts and
Transfer Program), the Associate in Arts Degree (Specialized Program), and the Junior College Certificate. A one-year Vocational
Certificate is awarded for completion of a selected one-year vocational curriculum. In addition there are specialized programs of
study available for certain qualified students who do not seek a
graduation award.
The academic program at Golden Valley Lutheran College is basically liberal arts and allows one to concentrate in the area of general
education, Biblical and theological studies, or a specific vocation.
Students who eventually plan to attain a four-year liberal arts degree are encouraged to get the general education requirements satisfied while at GVLC, thus allowing them to concentrate chiefly on
their major and minor areas of study during the last two years of
college.
General education courses ask the student to know something of
the world of nature and scientific method, of the society in which he
or she lives and in which one has a part to play, of the historic perspective and human achievements called the fine arts and humanities, and of the eternal values perceived in Biblical and theological
studies.
GENERAL ACADEMIC INFORMATION

which are taken to meet the requirements of the Junior College
Certificate. An S counts as two honor points per credit for the
Junior College Certificate only and will not be credited toward an
Associate in Arts Degree. The U grade yields no honor points or

An Honors List composed of those students who have earned a
grade point average of 3.00-3.49 is compiled at the end of each
term. Those students who achieve a grade point average of 3.50 or

progress toward the Associate in Arts degree: (a) when his or her
grade point average for any quarter is less than 2.00; (b) when his or
her transcript shows two or more grades of I (Incomplete) in one
quarter. If a student's grade point average falls below 1.50 for any
quarter, he or she will be placed on academic probation until the
grade point average is raised to 1.50 or above. The College
reserves the right to dismiss a student if his or her academic
performance is regarded as unsatisfactory.

Each student is responsible for completing work as required in
each class. With respect to unexcused absences, excused
absences, or make-up work, it is the student's responsibility to
learn the policy of each instructor. The instructor's policy is usually

Activity Credits
A total of nine credits in co-curricular activities may be applied
toward an Associate in Arts Degree. The three credits of required
physical education are not included in this category, however one
physical education credit toward the requirement will be given for
varsity sports. (If the student plays on a varsity team two years, only
one credit will be granted for the sport.) Co-curricular activities
include all music ensembles, Theatre Practice, Christian Service,
additional physical education activity courses after required
courses are completed, and activity credits that a transfer student
might bring to Golden Valley Lutheran College. In each case the
student must indicate during registration whether the activity ·is
being taken for credit or non-credit.
With regard to co-curricular activities other than varsity sports, a
student who earns a grade point average of less than 1.5 for a
quarter may have co-curricular activities curtailed or programs of
study reduced, at the discretion of the Scholastic Standing
Committee.
Credit by Special Examination
Under special circumstances, a student may seek to gain credits
or exemption by special examination, in accordance with specific
departmental policies.
Admission of Transfer Students
College work done at other accredited institutions may be
applied toward a degree or certificate at Golden Valley Lutheran
College. Transfer students are required to follow regular
admissions procedure and submit an official transcript of record
from each college attended. Credit for the college work done, if
satisfactory in quality and applicable toward the College's
divisional degree requirements, will be accepted toward an
Associate in Arts Degree. Golden Valley Lutheran College will not
accept D's in transfer except by special petition approved by the
Scholastic Standing Committee.
The a~tual number of credits earned at other institutions are entered on the student's record, but transferred credits and grade
points are not included in the computation of the grade point average.

term, must make application for this action in the Office of the
Registrar. Failure to comply with this regulation may deprive a
student of refund privileges and result in an F grade in all classes.

PRESIDENT'S GREETING

President's
Greeting
Experiences during the first year after high school play a major role in
one's development of a philosophy of life. This consequently determines
how one lives his or her life.
Golden Valley Lutheran College was established with the main
purpose of providing an opportunity for the student to develop a
philosophy of life founded on Christian convictions.
We strive to provide this foundation for life by emphasizing a
personalized education which includes the opportunity for the study of
both liberal arts and the Scriptures. This is a curriculum we believe will
best help the student understand the world in which he or she will be
living and working.
We ask that those who come have an open mind, a grateful heart and a
desire to learn. Preparation for "making a living" is not sufficient for the
Christian today. Golden Valley Lutheran College is also designed to
provide an education which will serve as preparation for "making a life."
Bernt C. Opsal, President

GENERAL INFORMATION
History
Golden Valley Lutheran college is a two-year coeducational liberal arts
college established in 1967 by The Lutheran Bible Institute of Minneapolis. Beginning as a Bible institute in 1919, The Lutheran Bible Institute
moved from St. Paul to Minneapolis in 1929. In 1961 it moved to Golden
Valley, a suburb four miles west of downtown Minneapolis. Through the
years this educational institution has addressed itself to the needs of
people and has sought to meet those needs by establishing programs
appropriate to the times. The College is inter-Lutheran and is not directly
affiliated with any particular Lutheran synod. It cooperates with and
seeks to serve all synods and society as a whole. The College admits qualified
men and women from various geographic, cultural, economic, racial, and
religious backgrounds.
The Campus and Its location
Golden Valley Lutheran College is located on a beautiful 30-acre
campus in Golden Valley, a western suburb of Minneapolis. The greater
Twin City area is a cultural, recreational, and sports center of the Upper
Midwest.
The academic life of the students is centered in a large two-level
complex. Classrooms, library, faculty and administrative offices, a prayer
chapel, the College auditorium-gymnasium, cafeteria and lounges are
located in this building.
Four residence halls on campus, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta
dormitories, house approximately 400 students. The facilities include
fireplace lounges, laundry facilities, rooms for prayer and meditation,
and apartments for residence hall directors. Adjacent to Gamma dormitory
is the Commons, a student lounge and recreation area. A student center
is located in Delta dormitory.

GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Philosophy and Objectives
Golden Valley Lutheran College is a liberal arts institution w1tn
programs of study in general education, Biblical literature, music,
physical development, and semi-professional training. It seeks to provide
two years of higher education for students interested in the arts and
sciences, and also to give opportunity for a study of the sources of the
Christian faith. Through special activities the College provides the basis
for personal growth and cultural enrichment. Students are encouraged
to participate in community and church activities.
In order to reach these goals, Golden Valley Lutheran College offers
students a choice of one of the following curricula:
1. Completion of a two-year liberal arts education that functions
according to the standards common to the academic enterprise
and that prepares the student to transfer to a four-year college or
university.
2. Completion of a two-year program that provides the basis for semiprofessional employment in the fields of church staff work,
mission, secretarial work, sodal service, recreational leadership,
law enforcement and a cooperative computer training program.
3. Study of the Bible and liberal arts in a collegiate setting for
individuals who do not intend to pursue a degree or a semiprofessional program.
Golden Valley Lutheran College strives to supplement these curricular
programs by emphasizing the following objectives with opportunities ...
to develop knowledge of the Judea-Christian world view as set
forth in the literature of the Old and New Testaments and an
analysis on the part of each student concerning his or her basic
beliefs and spiritual commitments.
to develop service motivated standards of conduct for young
adults as they move into the many areas of national life, including
social improvement, community involvement and active membership in Christian congregations.
to appreciate the great works of art, music and the theatre th rough
courses and cultural events which take place on the campus and in
the metropolitan area.
to attain physical well-being through the application of standards
conducive to good health and through participation in physical
education and sports activities.
to develop personal self-confidence through the determination
of individual goals, the building of relationships with other people
and the experience of companionship in a Christian setting.

Accreditation and Transfer of Credit
Golden Valley Lutheran College received regional accreditation
through the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools in
July of 1978. Thus, entering students can be confident that if they
make a creditable record at Golden Valley Lutheran College, their
credits will normally transfer to other colleges and universities. Students
who are planning to continue their education at a college with limited
transfer of religion credits may register for the religion courses which are
listed in the liberal arts departments. Through the proper selection, most
religion courses are transferable. A student with a satisfactory academic
record can normally complete a bachelor's degree two full academic
years after receiving the Associate in Arts degree from Golden Valley
Lutheran College.

General Guidelines
Golden Valley Lutheran College is oriented to the Christian Gospel
and expects its students to live accordingly. Each student is expected to
be familiar with the regulations and standards pertaining to student
conduct as described in the Student Life Handbook.

STUDENT LIFE
13
STUDENT LIFE
Campus life at Golden Valley Lutheran College provides activities and
experiences which help develop the whole person. The programs of the
College provide wholesome recreation designed to stimulate spiritual
and intellectual growth. Students are involved in the planning of social
activities which can enrich college life and foster friendships.
New Student Pre ... Registration
Prior to the start of the fall quarter, new students are invited to the
campus to participate in pre-registration activities. During this time the
student will have an opportunity to learn more about the College and
meet staff and faculty personnel who will assist in course planning for the
coming year.
Selected sophomores are available to help the new students become
familiar with and adjust to college life.
Counseling Services
The major decisions which students have to make during their early
college years are often difficult and perplexing. Counseling provides a
service which helps students learn ways of solving their academic,
vocational, social, emotional and spiritual problems.
Each student is assigned to a faculty advisor who will assist him or her in
planning an appropriate schedule of classes for each academic term. In
addition to individual counseling, several counseling groups, concerned
with matters such as personal growth, chemical dependency and other
problems, meet regularly. Each student also may make appointments to
visit with instructors, residence hall directors, the deans, the College
nurse or others on the staff who can give assistance.
Study skills assistance is provided for students who need to improve
their reading rate, reading comprehension, spelling, mathematics skills,
study skills, or writing skills.
Health Services
The College has a full-ti me registered nurse on the staff to provide basic
medical services. Stu'dents requiring additional treatment are usually
referred to the Golden Valley Clinic which is located less than a mile from
the campus. Major Twin City hospitals also are readily accessible.

GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Library
The library, located on the ground floor of the Main building, provides
a variety of materials and services to support the college curricula. There
are over 30,000 volumes, 247 periodicals, local and national newspapers,
and a substantial vertical file in the collection. Through the Minnesota
Interlibrary Telecommunications Exchange (MINITEX) the student has
access to a vast network of more than ten million volumes in a five state
area. In addition, there is a sizeable audiovisual collection including
phonograph records and casssettes, as well as filmstrips with necessary
listening and viewing equipment available to the students.
Insurance
The College does not assume any responsibility for the loss of or
damage to personal property. Many families have homeowners policies
that will cover losses of family members at college.
Housing Services
Golden Valley Lutheran College is primarily a residential college. If
space is available, full-time students live in the College residence halls.
Exceptions are those who are married, commute from their homes, or who
work for their board and room. Students living on campus participate in
the cafeteria program which provides three meals a day, seven days a
week. The price fixed for the weekly 21 meal plan is set with the
knowledge that a certain percentage of the meals will be missed during a
week. Students who are commuting may purchase individual meals in
the College cafeteria.
Student Government and Social Life
A forum for student expression and student-initiated improvements in
campus life is provided by a Student Senate chosen from the student
body. This representative group serves as a coordinator of studentfaculty relations. It seeks continually to improve and make student life
more enjoyable.
The social program of the College is under the supervision of the
Student Activities Commission (SAC). Homecoming, Sno-Daze and the
Spring Banquet are examples of the many social activities available.
Disciplinary problems are arbitrated by the student Judiciary Board.
STUDENT LIFE
15
Religious life
As an institution of Christian higher education, Golden Valley Lutheran
College believes that religious life activities are an integral part of its
program. Therefore the College provides regularly scheduled chapel
services, campus worship services, transportation to local church services,
all-campus devotions, dormitory devotions and Christian student organizations. Special programs include the Days of Prayer & Praise and the
Christmas Festival of the Christ Child. Religious activities are coordinated
by the faculty Chapel & Special Events Committee and by a student Faith &
Life Commission.
Many students also participate in Christian Service activities in the
community and in world mission activities. The College has a Fellowship
of Christian Athletes chapter in which many students take an active part.
There also is an opportunity to serve on outreach teams which travel to
present the Gospel in word and song.
Chapel
All classes are dismissed each morning for a 25-minute chapel
program. These programs are varied in content. Some are in the nature of
worship services conducted by students, faculty, or guest speakers, while
others include films, lectures, drama, music or other special convocation
programs.
The chapel service is the heart and center of our collegiate program. It
is here that messages are shared from the Scriptures, and opportunity is
given for worship, intellectual stimulation and the development of a
sense of community.
Each student is encouraged to participate in the chapel services of the
college community and to attend public worship every Sunday.
Student Use of Automobiles
Parking space is limited on campus. Those students who do not need
an automobile for commuting or transportation to or from work are
urged not to bring a vehicle to college. Those who do need an
automobile or motorcycle must secure a parking permit through the
business office. The Dean of Students has the right to terminate a permit
at any time if circumstances warrant such action. The College assumes no
responsibility for damage, theft, or vandalism involving student vehicles.

Student Costs
1984~85
The following explains the basic costs to the student and the financial aids that are available to assist the student in meeting these costs.
The College reserves the right to change the costs of tuition, board, room
or fees at any time.
The charges that are made to students for tuition, room and board do
not adequately cover the costs of operating the College. Approximately
35% of the cost of operation must come from gifts and grants. In the
present budget, this amounts to over one million dollars a year.
Therefore, over and above all help given, each student receives the
equivalent of a $2,000 scholarship per year in order to cover the total
expenses of the operation.
The College does not receive direct financial support from any
denomination or Lutheran synod. Gift income is received from congregations, organizations and foundations, and by matching funds from
Lutheran Brotherhood and other corporations.
Most of the funds, however, come as individual gifts from alumni,
parents and friends of the College. Over 600 people are supporting the
College through the INASMUCH program whereby they have pledged
and/or paid from $1,000 to $25,000 over a three year period. As we make
our needs known, the Lord answers our prayers through the gifts of these
many friends.

Guaranteed Student Loans enable eligible students to borrow directly
up to $2,500 annually from participating banks or other lenders at an
interest rate of 8%. Repayment of loan principal and interest begins six
months after graduation or leaving college.
The Minnesota Student Loan Program provides Guaranteed Student
Loans to eligible students who are unable to find a participating lender to
fund them.
Parent Loans for Undergraduate Student (Plus). This program helps
parents borrow money to pay for their children's cost of attending
postsecondary schools without the constraint of collateral securing the
loan. Parents of undergraduate students may borrow $3,000 per year for
each dependent, undergraduate student to a maximum of $15,000 per
student. Repayment begins within 60 days of disbursement. Normal
repayment is made over a five to ten year period at an interest rate of 12%.
The number and amount of each payment depends on the size of the
debt and the parents' ability to pay. The minimum repayment is $600 per
year. PLUS loans do not require a needs test.
Work Opportunities
College Work - Study enables students who demonstrate financial
need an opportunity to help defray college expenses through part-time
employment. Work - Study students may be employed in the cafeteria,
in maintenance, as clerical assistants to professors, library and audiovisual assistants, resident assistants, or in other available positions.
Student Employment. There are numerous part-time employment
positions available in the Golden Valley community and the surrounding
area. Our College bulletin board carries notices of available employment.
Other Assistance Programs
College Payment Schedule: Because most people prefer to pay
educational expenses in installments, Golden Valley Lutheran College
has set up a tuition payment plan. This plan is a convenient payment
program beginning in June and ending in February.
Hidden Subsidy: Golden Valley Lutheran College gives a "hidden
subsidy" each year to every student who attends the College as a full-
FINANCIAL AID
27
time student. This "hidden subsidy" reflects the fact that the total
instructional program at the College costs more than the total amount
received from tuition and fees. Such a "hidden subsidy" is made possible
by gifts from many sources, especially church congregations, alumni, and
friends of the College. The College also receives income from endowment funds.
Lutheran Brotherhood Loan - If a member of the student's family
holds a Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance policy, a student may borrow
up to $2,500 per year from the Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance Society
at the same rates described under Federal Insured Student Loans.
Other Grants - There are a number of grants and scholarships
available from other sources. The student is encouraged to consult his or
her high school counselor and the Director of Financial Aid at Golden
Valley Lutheran College for other federal, state, and communitysponsored scholarships and grants.
Procedure for Applying for Financial Aid
1.
To apply for admission to Golden Valley Lutheran College, request
an application form from the Office of Admissions, Golden Valley
Lutheran College, 6125 Olson Highway, Golden Valley, MN 55422.
2. If you are applying only for Golden Valley Lutheran scholarships and
grants - and not for state or federal grants - indicate this on the
Golden Valley Lutheran College Financial Aid Application.
3. To apply for federal or Minnesota aid you must complete a Family
Financial Statement and a Student Data Form using income information
for the 1983 tax year and submit it to ACT. Forms are available from
your high school guidance counselor or by writing the Office of
Admissions at Golden Valley Lutheran College. Although the FFS is
preferred, non-Minnesota residents may submit the CSS Financial
Aid Form. Allow six to eight weeks for processing of the ACT Family
Financial Statement.
4. Since all financial aid programs have limited funds, within ten days of
our notifying you that you will receive financial aid you must let us
know that you accept the offer. Funds that are not accepted are given
to other students who need them.
All types of financial assistance are made for only one academic year.
Students, however, may expect to receive financial assistance for the
second year if they remain in good academic and personal standing and if
their financial need continues. If a student withdraws during any quarter,
he or she forfeits the entire amount of gift aid that has been awarded
from College funds for the quarter. He or she also forfeits proportionate
amounts of aid awarded from state or federal funds for that quarter.
Golden Valley Lutheran College makes every effort to enable all
accepted students to attend regardless of financial resources. Your
financial need may be met through a combination of federal, state, and
institutional financial aid programs. We encourage students and parents
to visit campus to discuss financial planning.

ACADEMIC PROGRAM
31
ACA EMIC PROGRAM
Golden Valley Lutheran College grants three types of two-year
completion awards: the Associate in Arts Degree (Liberal Arts and
Transfer Program), the Associate in Arts Degree (Specialized Program),
and the Junior College Certificate. A one-year Vocational Certificate is
awarded for completion of a selected one-year vocational curriculum.
Golden Valley Lutheran College is a liberal arts institution which allows
a student to concentrate in the areas of general education, Biblical and
theological studies, or a specific vocation.
Students who plan to earn a four-year degree are encouraged to satisfy
general education requirements while attending Golden Valley Lutheran
College. When this suggestion is followed, students may concentrate on
their major and other requirements during the last two years of college.
General education courses invite the student to learn about the world,
the scientific method, the society in which he or she lives, the fine arts
and humanities, and the eternal values perceived in Biblical and
theological studies.
General Academic Information
Credit load and Student Classification
A normal credit load consists of 16 credits per quarter. Exceptions to
this credit load will be considered in consultation with a student's
academic advisor. Permission to take more than 18 credits must be
granted by the Academic Dean. Individuals enrolled for 12 or more
credits per quarter are considered full-time students. Individuals with
less than 12 credits are considered part-time students. A student who has
earned less than 45 cumulative credits is classified as a freshman. A
student who has earned 45 or more cumulative credits is classified as a
sophomore.
The auditing of courses is not encouraged since classroom capacities
are needed by students interested in earning college credit. Auditors are
required to do all work assigned by the instructor and tuition costs are the
same as costs for credit.

GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN.COLLEGE
Grading and Honor Point System
/\ student's grade point average is computed at the end of each
quarter. The grade point average is determined by dividing the number
of earned honor points by the number of credits attempted. Honor
points are computed by the following scale:
Honor Points

*Incomplete work, must be made up satisfactorily by the end of the
fourth week of the next term the student attends or within one year if the
student does not return to Golden Valley Lutheran College. If a student
desires an extension beyond four weeks, he or she must secure approval
of the instructor involved and must petition the Scholastic Standing
Committee for the extension. If the work is not completed in the allotted
time, the grade becomes an F.
**Withdrawals after the third week of classes and through mid-term
are indicated by W or WF (to be determined by the instructor); and after
the mid-term and until the last regularly scheduled class day of each
quarter by a W, WF, or Fas determined by the instructor. A student may
not drop a course after final examinations begin.
***The grading system of Sand U is used only for those courses which
are taken to meet the requirements of the Junior College Certificate. An
S counts as two honor points per credit for the Junior College Certificate
only and will not be credited toward an Associate in Arts Degree. The U
grade yields no honor points or credits.
Academic Honors
An Honors List composed of those students who have earned a grade
point average of 3.00-3.49 is compiled at the end of each term. Those
students who achieve a grade point average of 3.50 or better are included
on the Dean's List.
ACADEMIC PROGRAM
33
Academic Progress
In accordance with policies established by the administration and
faculty, a student will be counseled in relation to academic progress
toward the Associate in Arts degree: (a) when a student's grade point
average is less than 2.00; (b) when his or her transcript shows two or more
grades of I (Incomplete) in one quarter. If a student's grade point average
falls below 1.50 he or she will be placed on academic probation until the
grade point average is raised to 1.50 or above. The College reserves the
right to dismiss a student if his or her academic performance is regarded
as unsatisfactory.
Eligibility for Varsity Sports
Eligibility rules for participation in varsity sports at Golden Valley
Lutheran College conform to the National Junior College Athletic
Association eligibility rules. In general, in order to participate in a varsity
sport, a student must be a full-time (12 credits) student during the
qualifying and competing quarter. During the qualifying quarter, he or
she must earn a grade point average of 1.5 or better in at least 10 hours of
course work listed in the College Catalog. Freshmen enrolled at GVLC in
their first quarter of college are exempt from the qualifying quarter
requirements. A student's eligibility is reviewed each quarter and all
hours of a complete course (subject) must be counted in computing a
student's grade point average. (See NJCAA Eligibility Rules.)
No student shall be certified on an eligibility list until the College has
received the final transcript indicating the high school graduation date
and any college transcript(s), if another college has been previously
attended. The responsibility to obtain any such transcripts rests upon the
individual student.
Credit by Special Examination
Under special circumstances, a student may seek to gain credits or
exemption by special examination, in accordance with specific departmental policies.
Transfer Students
The actual number of credits accepted in transfer from other institutions
are entered on the student's record, but transferred credits and grade
points are not included in the computation of the grade point average.
Transfer credit will not be granted for courses in which a grade below
C- was received.
34
GOLDEN VALLEY LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Class Attendance
Each student is responsible for regular class attendance and for
completing work as required in each class. With respect to unexcused
absences, excused absences, or make-up work, it is the student's
responsibility to learn the policy of each instructor. The instructor's
policy is usually stated in the course outline. At the discretion of the
instructor, a student may be withdrawn from a course for an excessive
number of unexcused absences or uncompleted assignments.
Independent Study
A maximum of six credits in Independent Study may be applied toward
the Associate in Arts Degree. The student must meet the criteria
established by the department and have the approval of the chairperson of
the department in which he or she plans to do the study. Standards
require a 3.0 average in the department in which Independent Study is
taken, a limit of four credits per term in Independent Study, and a
demonstration of relevance to the student's academic objectives. Independent Study applications are available in the Registrar's Office.
Bible and English Requirements
All students enrolled for eight credits or more are required to take at
least one Bible course each quarter that they attend classes at the
College. A student who transfers from another college is not required to
complete the full 18 credits in Bible but is required to take one course
each quarter while enrolled at the College. All Bible core courses listed in
the Department of Biblical Studies will satisfy this requirement.
All degree seeking students are required to register for English until
the sequence, English 111and112 - College Composition, and English
113 - Introduction to Literature, has been completed. Placement in
English 100, 110, or 111 will be determined by specific English Placement
tests administered to all new students during student orientation in the
fall, or at the time of their registration for winter or for spring quarters.
Co-Curricular Activity Credits
A total of nine credits in co-curricular activities may be applied toward
an Associate in Arts Degree. The three credits of required physical
education are not included in this category. Co-curricular activities
include all music ensembles, theatre practice, Christian service, additional physical education activity courses after the three required courses
are completed, and activity credits that a transfer student might bring to
the College.
With regard to co-curricular activities other than varsity sports, a
student who earns a grade point average of less than 1.Sfor a quarter may
have co-curricular activities curtailed or programs of study reduced, at
the discretion of the Scholastic Standing Committee.
ACADEMIC PROGRAM
35
Orientation and Registration
All students must report to the College for Orientation Days as
indicated in the calendar in this catalog.
The orientation period includes a series of placement and personality
tests which are used to provide a more effective placement and
counseling service for students. Both new and returning students are
required to register on the days indicated in the calendar.
Registration is not completed until the student has made settlement for
the quarter charges at the Bookkeeping Office.
All students have at their disposal the advice and counsel of faculty
advisors. Before registering for any term, the student must consult with
his or her advisor concerning the schedule of study. The selection of the
proper courses is the individual student's responsibility.
Changes in Registration
Necessary changes to eliminate conflicts and to correct evident
mistakes in registration may be permitted during the first ten days of
classes, with the written approval of the academic advisor. A Change of
Course Permit for this purpose may be obtained in the Registrar's Office.
After the tenth day, no regularly scheduled classes may be added except
by special permission.
Repeating a Course
A student may repeat only courses in which a grade of Dor F has been
received. The intention to repeat a course must be certified at the time of
registration for the course. If a student repeats a course in which a Dor F
grade has been received, only the more recent grade and credit earned
will be included in the computation of the grade point average. Both
grades, however, will remain on the student's permanent record.
Withdrawals from the College
A student who wishes to withdraw from the College during any term,
must make application for this action in the Office of the Registrar.
Failure to comply with this regulation may deprive a student of refund
privileges and result in an F grade in all classes. Partial refunds on fees
already paid will be based on the date the application was signed and
returned to the Registrar's Office.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
37
GRADUATION
REQUIREMENTS
The responsibility rests with the student for seeing that his or her
program includes all requirements for graduation.
Applicants for admission should study the requirements for graduation outlined in this section of the catalog and plan their college
program as a whole as early as possible. A student who is in doubt about
how certain requirements are interpreted should consult with his or her
academic advisor, the Registrar, or the Academic Dean. When circumstances might warrant a justifiable modification in a requirement, a
petition (obtained from the Registrar) should be submitted to the
Committee on Academic Affairs.

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
