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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Tom Terpening in Augsburg‘s Central Services Working way through school - more than 1 payoff “I once heard that the more you take on, the more you get done,“ commented Jenny Nordstrom ('84 Bismarck ND). “It's true.“ It certainly seems true of the great number of Augsburg students who have jobs. It's almost harder to find a student who doesn't work these days than to find one who holds down one, two, or even three jobs. “Financial aid has been decreased and this makes work necessary," said Pam Jinnett, a director of career planning and placement. “Students are taking on more than one job and their need is greater than job availability. Often a job is tem- Literacy program part of work study Augsburg has received additional work-study funds to take part in a pilot adult literacy program. Students from 20 colleges across the country will be involved as tutors to adult illiterates. The new program combines efforts of the Federal Government, Minnesota Literacy Council, three private colleges in Minnesota, and B. Dalton Booksellers to teach adults who are among the estimated 23 million Americans who cannot read or write. The colleges involved in the project have been awarded $20,000 to find tutors. That provides 80 percent of the student’s wage. The additional 20 percent is paid by B.Dalton. who initiated the campaign for this program. The Adult Literacy Council provides the work sites and tutor training. There are basically two types of training: English as a Second Laguage to tutor adults from other cultures; and the Laubach method, which tutors functionally illiterate adults. Students can be employed by either tutoring program, assist in a classroom or work as office assistants. “We‘re anticipating that a number of our students will get involved and also arrange these jobs as internships," said Herald Johnson, assistant vice president for financial aid. Students with majors in foreign languages. English, communica- tion and education would be ideal for the program said Johnson. It started, according to Johnson. when B. Daltons decided to make a push. “They called us and asked if we'd be involved. I went to the Dean, who endorsed it.“ The college is currently taking applications from interested students The other Minnesota colleges involved are St. Thomas and Macalester. Financial aid directors at the schools say the $20,000 represents about a 7 to 10 percent increase in their federal work-study funds. Scholarships available to transfer students Augsburg is offering a new Lutheran Student Transfer Scholarship to prospec- tive students, Students transferring to Augsburg from a two-year Lutheran college. with at least a 3.0 GPA, are eligible. The Scholarships are not need-based. A scholarship committee will look at the ap- plicant's academic abilities, extracurricu- lar involvement, leadership qualities, volunteer activities and special achieve- ments. The applicant doesn’t need to be Lutheran to apply. Seven $500 scholarships are available, each of which is renewable for one year. Interested students should apply in March. More information is available from the Admissions Office,612-330-1001. porary or the pay is too small, so they take on more than one." Students are also seeing another need and reason for work. “No one is going to just hand them a job after graduation," said Jinnett. “It makes you realize that there‘s a whole other world out there. beyond the ivory tower of Augsburg," said Sue Rich- mond. a senior majoring in communica- tion from Wilmington DE. One of her jobs is at SATCO on Franklin Avenue. “A job helps you deal with people, and gives you practical business ex rience," said Tom Terpening (’86 Ma 'son WI). Terpening works for Central Services at Augsburg. Jinnett was hired last year to run the job service which was started by Abner Batalden in the 19305. Batalden, a student at the time, found part-time employment for his peers in restaurants, hotels and hospitals. He reactivated the service in 1981 to cover the decrease in government grants and scholarshi . Pat Garland and Jinnett now direct suc programs through the Center for Student Development. There are difficulties with the jobs. Around finals, Nordstrom said. it gets pretty hard to balance everything. “Whatever is screaming for my attention at the moment gets it!” Richmond shared the secret of her success: “Caffeine. I study really late at night.“ And Mike Pirner ('85 Deerwood MN), an Augsburg wrestler who works at Eddie Webster's in Bloomington as a bouncer, said he uses weekends to make up for the lost studying time. Most students work between 10 to 20 hours a week. About 45% of Augsburg students are employed in a campus work-study pro- gram, according to Virene Luthi (’78), associate director of financial aid. There has been a noted increase in this rcen- tage in the past three years, sai Luthi, because “jobs off cam us aren't as readily available. We used to have trouble finding students to fill all of the positions the departmean had open, but now it’s the other way around. We have trouble finding enough jobs for the students." Part of the popularity of these jobs is flexibility. “These jobs are convenient, Mix and Match . . . and scheduling isn‘t as much of a roblem because departments usually rea ize that a student’s schedule changes every semester," commented Luthi. There are other advantages. Said Nord- strom, “As a tutor, I get to know people at Augsburg. I started tutoring one girl, and now she's my best friend and my room- mate." Luthi also pointed out that it's valuable for studean to see how parts of the college operate, and for students to be helped by their peers. The only real disadvantages of work-stud are that there is a limit to how much stu ents can earn and jobs off cam- pus usually pay more. Working students are quick to point out the importance of ordering priorities and making time for studying. Nordstrom, who works at the Loft on Riverside, says she puts school first. “My job does take away time I could be studying. Could be, not necessarily would be. Richmond remains involved with the honors program and says working hasn’t harmed her grades. It is temptin to imagine these students as mini-worka olics on a class-study- work~slee schedule with little or no social life. But e stereotype doesn't hold. Nord- strom sings in the Augsburg Choir and has appeared in five major eater produc- tions and was student director for this year‘s interim musical, Lil‘ Abner. Rich- mond is involved in intramural sports, MPIRG, religious life, and the honors pro- gram. Terpening sings in Augsburg’s choir, and Pirner puts in 3 or 4 hours a day with the wrestling program. Students in- sist that working actually helps them to order their priorities to accomplish more. Many students are working to cover or help cover the expense of attending a private college like Augsburg. “I want to elp finance my way through school," said Terpening. “I don't feel it’s my parents' responsibility.“ Said Richmond, “Working cuts down on your time, your fun, and your studying. But it makes you more responsible. Youkleam more about what the real world IS I e.“ - Tammy J.

It is set in the 0] West during the 18318 and will make use of a large cast and much music. “The lay,” said Parker, “utilizes the music he style of theater, meaning there is alot of music within the play and also a lot of musical interludes." Dates for the spring play are set for two weekends in April, beginning Friday the 13th 7 and continuing through Sunday the 29th at Stage 2. The drama's emphasis will be on music and emotion. The cast will work from a script, but the style will be improvisational. “Billingsley” was written by Parker in 1964 and has been roduced several times, but never by a col ege before. This is Parker's second year teaching at Augsburg. and his first play directed at the college. He has worked on other major productions here as set designer, which is a role he will also fill for “Billingsley.” His emphasis in theater has always been im- rovisational, because. said Parker, "1 ike people to feel that they helped create the p ay." Parker also works with the Min- nesota Renaissance Festival, and is in- strumental in the school which is held in the summer at Augsburg for Renaissance participants.

Clawson began representing the people of Chisago County as a member of the House of Representatives in 1974. Chisago County is an area where the old meets the new. “The farmers are colliding with a lot of people moving out of the Twin Cities to a rural area and commuting to work." he observes. Clawson ran for the office because someone asked him to. and because he had a number of issues he felt strongly about. “It was largely a case of the DFL'ers trying to keep a Republican Incumbent honest—he needed to be challenged. I didn‘t really expect to win.” But win he did. in ’74. '76. ‘78. '80. '82. He is up for re— election again this year. After graduating from Augsburg in 1967. Clawson went on to get his M.Div. from Luther Northwestern Theological Seminary in 1971. Upon completing his studies there. he was called to the parishes of First Lutheran Church in Harris MN. and Calvary Lutheran Church in Stanch- field MN. where he served as pastor until 1974. He then took a position as a cha lain for the Hazelden Foundation. where e is presently employed as a pastoral care consultant. He is also an instructor in history and political science at East Cen- tral Community College.

This four-year grant pro- vides resources for September 1984 through spring 1988. The Center for Facul~ ty Development is completing its first three-year cycle of a 5186.000 grant funded by Bush in summer 1981. “In a time of major. national academic retrenchment in the United States, the grant provides opportunities and incen- tives for individual professional growth. and for the general improvement of teaching at Augsburg." said Norma Noonan. director of faculty development and professor of political science. “We are fortunate to have had support from the Bush Foundation for a vigorous program of faculty development and renewal." The major projects in the last few years have been computer training of the faculty, teaching workshops. grants for summer research and course develop- ment. department retreats and faculty in- ternships. Approximately 14 different faculty development activities are encom- passed in the present program. In Phase 11 (1984-88) the program will continue some of the key aspects of the ex- isting offerings: computer workshops, an: nual teaching seminars. faculty intern. ships. summer research and course development grants.

The request for funding discussed how a strong faculty development program helps provide the ﬂexibility and excite- ment of the traditional Augsburg model of teaching and learning. “Faculty develop- ment falls at the core of the college's agen» da for responding to decade changes while maintaining the distinctive strengths of the institution.“ Norma Noonan The program becomes central to the college by assisting faculty with new ways to offer students quality instruction. per- sonal attention and adequate exposure to the values of liberal education. The final proposal for Phase II was written by Norma Noonan; Mark Engebretson. assistant professor of physics; and Diane Pike. assistant pro fessor of sociology. Noonan will continue to serve as director of the Center for Faculty Development assisted by the Committee on Faculty Development. Grant activities related to instructional improvement are teaching workshops. course development grants, computer training. curricular revision. writing seminars. course-related travel grants. faculty internships. weekend seminars. teaching resource materials and depart- mental and divisional retreats.

Christians need optimism in contribution to peace effort. As Christians, we have a special re- sponsibility in the peace effort. Most people think nuclear weapons and war are wrong. The question is, how do we remove this threat? The peace effort is very strong in this country. It's strong throughout the world. Members of Physicians for Social Respon- sibility have traveled to Russia and found that peace is also a deep concern in that country. How do we bring about a meaningful peace effort? I have no magic formula but I want to stimulate you in your thinking about your personal role in this effort. At a recent talk at a church in LaPorte MN on the shores of Kabekona Lake, we talked about the consequences of nuclear weapons. Events of the world—the inva- sion of Grenada, the Korean airliner disaster, the murder of Marines in Lebanon, the movie “The Day After" and resulting discussions—have led us to a sense of despair. To a degree all of us are living in a time which can be described as a “supreme crisis." Feelings of despair lead to a wrong kind of response: psychological feelings of denial or allowing someone else to deal with an issue that brings despair. That‘s where our faith comes in: our faith in God‘s mission for us on earth and our role in accomplishing that mission. What makes contem lating nuclear confrontation so difficu t is that the destruction would be that part of the crea- tion that was placed on earth in God's. Christ's imagcvthe human beings of this earth. A 1945 quote from._Albert Einstein behooves our basis for doing something about peace now. "The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything except our way of thinking, thus we're drifting toward a catastrophe beyond comparison. We shall require a substantially new way of thinking if mankind is to survive." And that is very difficult. In some of my engagemenm, I've heard such comments as “I'm sure that a similar type of conference was held when they discovered bows and arrows. when they discovered dynamite, when they discovered other weapons." But I think this is quite different. In 1977 I visited Japan and the cities of Nagasaki and Hiroshima. A visit to the. Peace Park in either of those cities is very moving. The Japanese have done what they can to make sure that such an event never happens again. That's been their mission. One of the remainin memories is a fountain in Hiroshima s ped like a clove. The dove is for peace and the water commemorates those thousands who died crying for water as they died alone and without comfort. Elie Wiesel, after the program “The Day After“, said. “It's as if all the world now is Jewish." Some of you don’t remember the anguish experienced when we read about the events of the Jewish peo— ple in Europe during World War II, However, many of you have read the diary of Anne Frank and the contemplation of the fate of those people. Now we have that same fate. A fate that is galvanizing us to the effort to bring about the reduction of nuclear weapons in the realization that all of God's people are loved by him. One analogy that can be made is that in the body there are about 4 billion cells call- ed leukocytes. The purpose of these cells is to protect the body from invasion by bacteria and also to rotect against malignancy. Nuclear ro iferation is now as close to cancer for t 's fragile planet as anything. With more and more resources being used up, the possibility exists for the death of the planet. The protection from malignancy in our bodies has been distributed between those 4 billion cells.‘ln the world there are about 4 billion ple. The rotection of this planet is ependent on e actions and ac- tivities of those 4 billion people. As individuals, you do count. You can be part of the peace movement in your own way. In 1957, the 10th anniversary of the World Health Organization (WHO), leaders of WHO met in Minneapolis. Several countries proposed that a mission of that organization should be the eradication of small pox. The Russians were here. The French were here. At the conclusion of the rogram, it was decided by proclamation t this would'be a mis- sion of the organization. They gave themselves 20 years. As 0tyou know. 1977 was the last ﬁr a case small pox was reported on ' globe. This is an example of international cooperation that can and does work. Some of the optimism that is hard to find these days can be found in the writings of Dean Rusk. He has described some seven agreements that have been made throughout the years with the Russians. They are all honored. They’re part of'the existence on this planet. There can be more but it takes an enormous effort. I‘d like to leave you with that kind of op- timism. The peace movement in this coun- try has a strong moral base with hard, reasoned strategy and a sustained drive. Each of us can contribute with our minds and with our voices. Dear Lord, thank you for a strong faith that you’ve given us. Keep us from despair. Help us and guide us as we per- suade with a loving heart. Help as k your love for all brothers and sisters in this world foremost in our minds. Amen. — Dr. Paul Oulo, University of Minnesota Editor's Note: Dr. Paul Quie, chief of staff at University of Minnesota Hos ltals, delivered this talk at a campus wars 9 on December 5, 1983.

Show more12 — Alumnews Helping others, according to Grace (Peterson ‘33) Nelson, is what we do “to pay our share for the privilege of being on earth." It is our duty and our responsiblity as citizens to care for each other. And Grace Nelson has certainly paid her share during her 75 years of life. if social and political activism is any measure of her concern for those around her. An activist in the true sense of the word. vibrant and alive. Nelson describes herself as “being drawn into“ her present concern: the rights of senior citizens. If lifted onto the bandwagon somewhat unconsciously, Nelson now seems to be pullingitalong herself. As she sat in her apartment in an Edina senior co-op one evening, Nelson‘s face became alive and interested as she described the concerns which are before her and spoke of her involvement with various groups and organizations. President of the Minnesota Senior Federation in 1981, Nelson hasn‘t let her involvement lag since that commitment came to an end. She chairs the longvterm care committees of the state and metropolitan Senior Federations and also serves on committees on aging for the Metropolitan Council and the Ebenezer Society. She is a convener on a task force on supportive care. which applies to the terminally ill and to those with irreversible disabilities. “We seek to give a competent individual the right to accept or not accept supportive care." There are no guidelines for this type of care at present, so thelcare actually being given can be pretty limited: Nelson serves on the advisory committee to the Interagency Case-mix Project, and has spoken to the White House Committee on Aging. She is currently serving on the Coalition for Health Care Containment, which, Nelson observes, "is a very prestigious task force, except for me!" The coalition includes, among others, a Minnesota Supreme Court judge, a past president of St, Olaf College and a health care commissioner. And Nelson is active in the National Coalition for Nursing Home Reform and also serves on the consortium of COMPAS’ arts, humanities and aging project. “That’s all,"shesaid. But it’s not. The woman is also vitally interested in environmental and peace issues. She is greatly concerned about the state of education in our country. She has been involved in civil rights and has spoken on television and radio. She has also had her share of influence in both the state and national legislatures. What drives a woman to take on such a task after retirement, to continue to push on with such force that it becomes to her "a second occupation?" “Oh, it makes viewing the news and reading the papers more interesting." she replied. Actually. Nelson is the product of a service-oriented family. Her father was active in the formation of the Non-partisan League, a predecessor of the Democratic- Farmer-Labor Party in Minnesota. The family also made service a part of their daily lives. “If anyone needed lodging or food, we'd provide it. We helped search for employment positions.“ Nelson also gives Augsburg its due. “I‘ve always appreciated Augsburg‘s philosophy that education is for service. I always told my students that if you‘re becoming educated to be rich, that‘s wrong, but if you're becoming educated to livea full life, you’re on the right track.“ Nelson majored in history while at Augsburg, and then taught in a one-room school in Dassel MN. Her career decision was not a startling one, she claims. At Augsburg then, “it was either teach or preach!” But marriage brought a temporary end to her career in 1937, as married women didn‘t teach in the 19305. Nelson took advantage of the interlude and went to business school, after which she became an accountant. Later, she returned to teach in the Roseville Public Schools. from which she retired a year early in 1972 to care for her aging mother. But education remains one of Nelson‘s favorite subjects. “I have always been a student and could be happy just being that. but there is also a need to be a productive member of society. ljust love learning.“ Nelson is totally in favor of a liberal arts education. Although her “only” reason for attending Augsburg instead of Hamline (she‘s Methodist) was that, in those days, it took only one streetcar token to get to Augsburg, while it took two to get to Hamline, she now speaks highly of Augsburg‘s liberal arts tradition. "To be welleducated, you need the liberal arts as a basis. Science is wonderful, but unless you have that GS mam - Augsburg was a streetcar closer; and began a life of serving others background and are familiar with history and culture, you‘ve lost a great deal in life. Those who have not learned the lessons of history will have to relive them and relearn them." Her background in history has also increased Nelson's devotion to her country. “I value my citizenship more than anything right now, and l have every reason to place that value on it." Her concern for education. and for what she feels to be the current administra- tion's disregard for it, stems from that value. "We are a democracy, and a democracy cannot survive without educated people." Nelson graduated summa cum laude from Augsburg and was president of the women‘s self-governing organization. She was a member of the debate team and the French Club. She taught Sunday School and sang in the church choir. Although she determined early not to pursue advanced degrees (“They‘re too specialized, their horizons are limited“), Nelson has attended school at frequent intervals all her life. As a result, she has business and legal training, has done advanced work in French and library science and speaks five languages. Now she concen.rates most of her energies in the area of senior's rights. Most of the needs arise because of economics. “Many of us are disad< vantaged economically through no fault of ours. We worked when money was dear, and live in a time in which it is cheap. We also have more health problems, and are often taken advantage of by unscrupulous people. So...out to battle!" Nelson noted enthusiastically the recent addition of Old Main to the National Register of Historical Buildings. “One notices the reverence which Europeans have for the old, while here the old must be torn down.” Nelson has committed herself to the building up of the old. There is something which reminds one of Samson or Hercules when conversing with this woman, and you wonder where she gets her strength. Grace Nelson is simply a 75-year—old, retired schoolteacher with a B.A. in history from Augsburg College. But what drives her? “It is simply the duty of educated individuals to serve others," she insists. “We must repay what society has invested in us.“ —Tarnmy J.

Minneapolis, Minnesota Graduation emotions run gamut: fear and pressure — excitement! “Life after Augsburg? What a scary thought!” Leslie Scholar is a senior on the brink of graduation. As she contemplata her direction after Augsburg. a pensive expression crosses her face. “I feel frustration, fear, pressure, and above all excitement." Scholar said. “I came (to Augsburg) with the attitude the four years of college would do everything for me. Now I know that if things are going to turn out the way I want them to, it will take a lot more from me," she explained. Scholar came to Augsburg from Eveleth MN, 3 small town on the Iron Range. She chose Augsburg because of its size and its reputation for being close-knit. “It's a lot like my hometown. I felt I could leave high school and not leave the closeness I once knew." Scholar said. She cites the only disadvantage of Augsburg's togetherness is that everyone knows what everybody else is doing. “Word travels really fast around here," she explained. Leslie Scholar Does Augsburg prepare the student for the transition between college and job or graduate school'.’ “Yes and no," Scholar said. “A little while ago I would've said no, but now I feel getting prepared for the transition is more up to the student." Scholar said. Scholar thinks there is only so much a college can do and then it is up to the student to take the initiative. There are a lot of things available to the concerned student at Augsburg. “I used to think that if it wasn’t in my schedule of classes. I didn't need to pursue anything else," Scholar said. She now says that if she wants to learn something like resume writing. she had better make time for it. Scholar feels glad she came to a liberal arts college because although she isn‘t skilled in a vocational school sense. she feels prepared psychologically for any job. “There’s a lot more to school than what you can learn from a book." said Scholar with a pleased look at her newly found philosophy: “If you apply yourself, you can prepare yourself for almost anything." 7 A . ‘_ - g g , Scholar reflected on how she has changed in the last four years. The friends she acquired as a freshman aren’t necessarily her friends now. “When you start school you have convenience friends — dorm floor friends. As you get older you gravitate towards and choose friends you can relate to," Scholar explained. “By the time you are a senior your friendships are felt more in your head and heart." Scholar said. As for Scholar's future plans, the most frustrating part is the pressure she feels in deciding right now what she should do. “I'll do what is best for me: either more schooling or get a job," she said. “Either way, I know I‘m never really happy unless I'm learning more and more." — Liz Kemp Communications Major EDITOR'S NOTE: Leslie Scholar is a senior majoring ln psychology with minors in sociology and communication. She is a 1978 graduate of Eveleth High School. Liz Kemp is a communications major from Brooklyn Center MN and a 1979 graduate of Park Center High School.

"The Hour“ from 191749. by Cameron Booth, who died in l980. was a gift from his wife. Booth was a University of Minnesota professor of art. The Booths have a long-standing association with Dr. and Mrs. Bernhard Christensen. Chairman of the Augsburg Art Department Phil Thompson and Don Padilla. Augsburg Regent with Padilla and Speer lnc. accepted the artwork for the college. Molder's artwork characterizes life, with rhythms in dynamic extremes As August Molder worked in the basement of his Golden Valley MN home preparing for a one-man art exhibit of his latest paintings. watercolors and prints held this fall in the College Center one couldn't help but be curious about the memories that ran through the mind of the 67-year-old artist. Memories of his 15 years in residency at Augsburg. Memories of his first Augsburg studio in an abandoned pet shop. For August Molder memories neither begin nor end in the realities of the present. The reality of his sister Alma growing blind with age behind the Soviet tron Curtain. The reality of trying to support her through parcels and the reality of how they both search for their lost brother Heinrich who was rumored to be in East Germany before he disappeared. Memories for August Molder are as vast and vivid as the spectrum of color in his art. This massive swirling ball of memories and realities must be recognized in order to gain full appreciation of Molder‘s artwork. In the year 1939. Estonia was invaded by Soviet troops in preparation for German conflict. During their occupation. the Soviet regime was set up at every level. Leaders were killed, pro- fessors—men of knowledge—deported to Siberia. in 1940 the German conflict occurred. and the German army drove Soviet troops back into Asia. but not before they burned and destroyed much of the countryside. For all practical purposes. World War It had begun for Molder. Flees from classroom With Tartu University short-staffed. Molder was brought on as a full time instructor of law. During his next two years of teaching. the war went bad for Germany. The BBS broadcasted news that the Allies were pushing from the west. Then in September 1944. the unthinkable happened. Soviet troops swept into Estonia with such force and speed that August could not even reach his family. From the classroom Molder fled with nothing but what was in his pockets: a razor. a few hundred marks, and a cake of soap. Just ahead of the Soviet guns, Molder traveled to miles a day on foot. Rafts were built and rivers crossed with boards used as oars. He slept at night in ditches and under bushes rolling in an old overcoat a Latvian farmer had given him for warmth. He barely missed being captured in the city of Mamel. instead Molder scaped into the German occupied city of Konigsberg by way of the Kurskay A Kosa Penimiila He was met there by Yolkssturm sddiers—GO-year-old men in brown shirts Molder sensed the war was coming to an end. Enticed by food and shelter by the Volkssturm. the refugees were loaded onto cattle cars and taken to a forced labor camp on the Eastern Front for military fortification. The move from village to village digging trenches eleven hours a day. seven days a week soon took its toll on Molder. With what little strength he had left, Molder made his escape in the village of Konigsberg. To look like a traveler, he stuffed a knapsack with an old shirt and shoes and bluffed his way as a passenger on a train to Berlin. Friends in Berlin set him up with a travel permit and essential ration coupons necessary to obtain goods. Traveling west. Molder found work as a farm hand in a small village outside the city of Jena. It was here that Molder fulfilled his desire to meet the Allies. Meets Americans While planting potatoes in late May of 1945. Molder stopped to watch a retreating troop of German soldiers. Marching within a hundred yards of Molder. the soldiers were attacked by American fighter planes. Flat on the ground. Molder was ecstatic with his first sight of the Allies. but for the time being. keeping out of their sight was utmost on his mind. The next day Molder laughed when he saw these funny, undisciplined Americans enter the village. They were so easygoing as compared to the German soldiers. who even in retreat marched as though they were in parade order drill. As the American troops were pulling out of the village, Molder discovered that the United States was givingJena to the Soviets. “My ears got red with blood i got so mad. They gave it to the Soviet Union. Jena. the ‘Green Heart' of Germany, and for nothing...not even for the dirt under their fingernails." At age 31. Molder packed his knapsack once again and was off to Augsburg, Germany. where he lived on a refugee camp in an abandoned Messerschmitt aircraft hanger. Australia to Augsburg it was at Augsburg the Molder began his art career under the guidance of a fellow refugee, Martin. who taught art at Tartu University. Every weekend the two would travel to Munich to VlSii the great museums. They also sold watercolors to American soldiers for opera and ballet tickets Three years passed before Molder grabbed the opportunity to leave the camp and go to Australia. the first country to accept Estonian refugees This more took away the status of refugee from Molder. making it 10 years before he could enter the Umted States under the immigrant quota system in Australia Molder \iorked as a The Third Annual Minnesota Trombone Workshop will be Saturday.

While at Augsburg Kennedy will be at an informal discussion with honor students at 5 pm. followed by a 6 pm. dinner and a program at 8 pm. in the College Center. Kennedy will address the purpose and mission of the Peace Institute. Kennedy was the third ranking Foreign Service officer at the American Embassy when it was taken over by Iranian students in September 1979. While he was held hostage. Kennedy saw that his captivity was in part a direct consequence of a failure by western observers to give proper weight to religion as a force in international relations. It was at that time he began thinking about the Cathedral Peace Institute. a world center for the study of religion and international affairs. According to a quote in the Minnea- polis Tribune, Kennedy called the takeover “the best thing that ever happened to me" because it gave him time to decide what to do with his life. Moorhead Kennedy Upon his retirement last summer from the Foreign Service, Kennedy founded the institute at the Episcopal Church. Seminars. lectures and articles written by the director and associates of the institute will be used within the church and other religious organizations to encourage a deeper and sharper understanding of international relations.

Mees (’71). district representative for Lutheran Brotherhood on October 14. The contest is sponsored by Lutheran Brotherhood and is open to all college students having a Lutheran background. Four of the five works were done by students at Augsburg. The works are on extended loan to the College. The Office of Church Relations. under the directorship of the Rev. Norman Wahl. has established a Speakers Bureau of Augsburg College regents, faculty and staff. A catalog of participating speakers and the topics in their areas of expertise was completed and sent out to approximately 800 churches in mid-December. Most speaker requests are for Sunday Adult Forums. banquets and Sunday worship services. In a letter Wahl received from Dean Larson. a 1962 Augsburg graduate. he wrote “I want you to know of my apprecia- tion for the ‘Speakers Bureau' booklet we received. I feel it's important for Augs- burg and for Christian Colleges." Another project just completed by Wahl in mid-December was a church bulletin insert. This insert deals with the issue of Christian Higher Education and its importance at Augsburg and in the world. It is used when campus representatives speak at a church. or upon request from a church. The bulletin insert has been used in churches in Minnesota. North Dakota and Arizona. Wahl is available to preach and hold forums on Christian Higher Education. A project that is just getting underway is a Church Relations Newsletter, entitled "Reformation." which will go out to 300 pastors in the metropolitan area.
