Show more .. Y. W W W . . . 3 from the President I hope you are looking at this catalog because you've enrolled at Augsburg College. If so, welcome to the College! All of us hope you find, in the course of your study, a rising enthusiasm for the work, a deepening appreciation of the profession and role to which you feel called, and a confident sureness that you have rightly chosen Augsburg as the community in which to spend the next several years of your life. If you're dipping into this volume to figure out who and what Augsburg College is and what education it offers, welcome to these pages! May they convey the fundamental character of our mission: to provide an education especially serviceable in the contemporary world because it has been designed in the midst of and in full contact with the critical social, economic, religious, and political phenomena of the modern city. This education, however practical and professional, will be serviceable over the long haul only to the degree that it respects and pursues certain of what Martin Luther called "the fine liberal arts," and it will be exciting to the degree it is offered for the sake of improving both its students and the world itself. The study you are undertaking at Augsburg-r thinking of undertaking-will occur on a small campus in the core of a great city; it will be led by faculty preoccupied with your welfare and the emergence and refinement of your vocational plans. As you join the enterprise, or consider doing so, please know that those of us who await you here find the College an exciting setting, full of diversity and yet possessed of a community dedicated to higher learning and good living, in which you can set off in new directions and in which new destinations are reachable.

We also believe that a liberal arts education is your best preparation for living in the fastpaced, changing, and complex world of today and tomorrow. Upon graduation, you will be able to demonstrate not only the mastery of a major field of study, but also the ability to think critically, solve problems, and communicate effectively Emphasis on values, perspectives, experience, and skills The heart of an Augsburg education is the Augsburg curriculum-the College's general education program, which structures your liberal arts studies through challenging and thought-provoking courses requiring students to consider important issues and examine values questions. These Liberal Arts Perspectives include Western Heritage, Intercultural Awareness, Human Identity, the Social World, Christian Faith, The City, Aesthetics, and the Natural World. At the same time, courses across all disciplines stress the skills that will serve you for a lifetime-writing, speaking, critical thinking, and quantitative reasoning, to name a few. Thanks to Augsburg's prime location in the heart of a thriving metropolitan area, many courses are able to offer rich and varied learning opportunities in real-life situations through academic internships, experiential education, volunteer community service, and cultural enrichment. In a sense, the resources of the Twin Cities are an extended campus for Augsburg students. Selection from over 50 majors Augsburg offers more than 50 majorsor you can create your own major either on campus or through the Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities (ACTC). (See page 53 for a complete list of majors and minors.) This five-college consortium allows students to take courses on other campuses without charge while a full-time student at Augsburg. The ACTC includes Augsburg College, College of St. Catherine, Hamline University, Macalester College, and the University of St. Thomas. Students who graduate from Augsburg are well prepared to make a difference in the world. They stand as testaments to the College motto, "Education for Service," and to the mission of the College: To nurture future leaders in service to the world by providing high quality educational opportunities, which are based in the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community. A College of the Church Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America, named after the confessibn of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Gennany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September 1869, in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The first seminarians were enrolled in 1874, and the first graduation was in 1879. 10 About Augsburg Early Leaders Establish a Direction The Focus Changed August Weenaas was Augsburg's first president (1869-1876). This attitude began to change after World War I. In 1911, George Sverdrup,Jr. became president. He worked to develop college departments with an appeal to a broader range of students than just those intending to be ministers. Augsburg admitted women in 1922 under the leadership of Gerda Mortensen, dean of women. She spent the next 42 years at the College as a teacher and administrator. Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway-Sven Oftedal and Georg Sverdrup. These three men clearly articulated the direction of Augsburg: to educate Norwegian Lutherans to minister to immigrants and to provide such "college" studies that would prepare students for theological study. In 1874 they proposed a three-part plan: first, train ministerial candidates; second, prepare future theological students; and third, educate the farmer, worker, and businessman. The statement stressed that a good education is also practical. Augsburg's next two presidents also emphatically rejected ivory tower concepts of education. This commitment to church and community has been Augsburg's theme for over 125 years. Education for Service Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist" college, Georg Sverdrup, Augsburg's second president (1876-1907), required students to get pre-ministerial experience in city congregations. Student involvement in the community gave early expression to the concept of Augsburg's motto, "Education for Service." In the 1890s, Apgsburg leaders formed the Friends of Augsburg, later called the Lutheran Free Church. The church was a group of independent congregations committed to congregational autonomy and personal Christianity. This change made Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the small Lutheran body. The college division, however, was still important primarily as an attachment to the seminary. The College's mission assumed a double character-ministerial preparation together with a more general education for life in society. In 1937, Augsburg elected Bernhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly teacher, to be president (19381962). His involvement in ecumenical and civic circles made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city life. After World War 11, Augsburg leaders made vigorous efforts to expand and improve academic offerings. Now the College was a larger part of the institution than the seminary and received the most attention. Accreditation for the College Augsburg added departments essential to a liberal arts college, offering a modem college program based on general education requirements and elective majors. With cumculum change came a long effort to become accredited. The College reached accreditation in 1954, although many alumni had entered graduate schools and teaching positions long before that time. A study in 1962 defined the College's mission as serving the good of society first and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church second. The seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther Seminary) in St. Paul in 1963 when the Lutheran Free Church merged with the American Lutheran Church. About Augsburg A College in the City President Oscar A. Anderson (19631980) continued Augsburg's emphasis on involvement with the city. He wanted to reach out to nontraditional student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all people. During his years of leadership the College became a vital and integral part of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg added the Music Hall, Mortensen Tower, Urness Tower, the Christensen Center, Ice Arena, and Murphy Place. Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the founders who believed: Dr. Charles S. Anderson led the College from 1980 to 1997. He guided Augsburg's commitment to liberal arts education, spiritual growth and freedom, diversity in enrollment and programs, and a cumculum that draws on the resources of the city as extensions of campus and classroom. Some of the accomplishments during his tenure include instituting two graduate degree programs, hosting national and international figures at College-sponsored forums and events, increasing accessibility, and the addition of the Foss Center for Worship, Drama, and Communication; the Oscar Anderson Residence Hall; and the James G. Lindell Family Library. The city-with all its excitement, challenges, and diversity-is an unequaled learning laboratory for Augsburg students. Dr. William V Frame became president in August 1997. He has initiated a strategic planning process intended to iden* the distinguishing marks of the Augsburg education-in both pedagogy and substance-and a restructuring effort intended to improve operating efficiencies and open access for the College to new sources of capital. An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community and church; Education should have a solid liberal arts core with a practical dimension in order to send out productive, creative, and successful citizens; Augsburg is a quality liberal arts institution set in the heart of a great metropolitan center. There are now almost 14,000 Augsburg alumni. In a world that has changed much since those first days of the College, Augsburg still sends out graduates who make a difference where they live and work. In addition to a traditional undergraduate liberal arts and sciences "day" program, Augsburg offers a Weekend College program for nontraditional students and master's degree programs in social work and leadership.

Whether students are residents or commuters, the climate for learning and living at Augsburg will add dimension to their education. As a college of the church, we are concerned about spiritual as well as academic and social growth. Our concern for spiritual growth is evident in the opportunities we encourage and provide for students to explore their own faith. Because our campus is comprised of individuals from many different religious and cultural backgrounds, our worship life is characterized by a similar diversity and richness of tradition. Bible studies, growth groups, outreach teams and community outreach opportunities, retreats, peace and justice forums, concerts, and gatherings are examples of the wide variety of activities on campus. This ministry finds its most visible expression in chapel worship where students, faculty, and staff gather each day to give thanks and hear the Gospel proclaimed by a number of speakers and musicians. Each Wednesday night students gather for Holy Communion. On Sundays, Trinity Lutheran worship services are held on campus, with many other churches within walking distance. We seek to develop a free and open environment where people are encouraged to use and discover the gifts and sense of call and vocation that God has given them. As a college of the church, we encourage students to form values guided by our Christian heritage, which will be the basis for the kind and quality of life that reaches beyond their years at Augsburg. The college pastor and campus ministry staff have offices in the Foss, Lobeck, Miles Center for Worship, Drama, and Communication and are available for spiritual guidance, counseling, support, or information. Through Student Government, students secure a closer relationship with and better understanding of the administration and faculty and provide input into the decisionmaking process at Augsburg. Student Government also sponsors and directs student activities, protects student rights, and provides the means for discussions and action on all issues pertaining to student life at Augsburg. Student Government is organized into the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch. Elections are held in the spring for the next year. Freshmen elect their representatives in the fall of their first year. Many kinds of involvement are possible-program planning, writing, editing, or service opportunities. If you want to get involved, contact the president or vice president of the student body in their offices in the lower level of the Christensen Center. The Student Activities Program creates opportunities for students to enhance their leadership skills through active involvement in developing events, activities, and organizations that serve the student community. Hundreds of major programming efforts and targeted activities for specific student interests are generated through these efforts and make Augsburg a dynamic and enjoyable interactive environment. - Student Life 41 Throughout the year, a variety of social and cultural activities takes place on campus as well as in the Twin Cities. These activities include dances, films, theme events, name entertainment, and visiting personalities in various fields. The Christensen Center is the focus of leisure-time activity on campus. Cooper's Attic (the gameroom and student lounge) is a popular hangout located in the lower level. Many of the clubs that unite classroom and non-classroom related interests meet here. Student offices in this area include the College newspaper, the Echo; the yearbook, The Augsburgian; Student Government; and the Augsburg Student Activities Council. KCMR, a student-operated nonprofit radio station serving the needs of Augsburg and the surrounding Cedar-Riverside community, is located in Umess Tower. Students have many opportunities to participate in music and drama. In addition to appearing on campus and in the city, the Augsburg Choir, Concert Band, and Orchestra perform on national and international tours. Many other ensembles are available to cover the entire range of musical styles and previous musical experience. Students stage several plays on campus each year under the direction of the Theatre Arts Program and have the opportunity to attend a series of on-campus workshops with visiting arts professionals. INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS Augsburg is affiliated with the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) and is a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division 111. Men annually compete in football, soccer, cross country, basketball, ice hockey, wrestling, baseball, track and field, and golf. Women annually compete in volleyball, cross country, soccer, basketball, ice hockey, softball, track and field, and golf. When Augsburg announced in February 1995 that it was adding women's ice hockey as a varsity sport, it became the first college or university in Minnesota to do so. H INTRAMURALS Every student is urged to participate in some activity for recreation and relaxation. An intramural program provides competition in a variety of team sports as well as individual performance activities. Broomball has been an especially popular coed sport. Check schedules for times when there is open use of the gymnasium and ice arena. SPORTS AND RECREATION At Augsburg, sports are for the average student as well as the intercollegiate athlete. The campus offers on a spaceavailable basis a double-rink ice arena, gymnasium, tennis courts, a fitness center with workout machines and weight room, and an air supported dome over the athletic field for winter fitness use by walkers and runners. (See Fitness Center on page 45.) 42 Student Life - Augsburg's mission focuses on student learning in the broadest sense. As an indication of the emphasis placed on student learning, the student and academic affairs offices work to bring together the student learning found in the classroom with the activities of experiential education and work, residence life, and the learning resources of the library and information technology. The following sections elaborate on facets of student life. The formal academic programs and requirements are described on page 52. GAGE FAMILY ACADEMIC ENRICHMENT CENTER The Gage Family Academic Enrichment Center, located in Rooms 17 and 18 of Foss Center, is designed to offer students study-skill assistance so that they may achieve academic success. The center has four offices: the Learning Skills Office, the Tutor Center, the Learning Laboratory and the Center for Learning and Adaptive Student Services (CLASS). The Learning Skills Office, located in Foss Center, Room 17, assists students in improving their skills in such areas as time management, notetaking, textbook reading and comprehension, test-taking, and concentration and memory improvement. Diagnostic testing is also available to assess skills in reading, vocabulary, spelling, study strategies, and learning styles. The staff will assist students in developing effective and efficient studv skills. The Karen M. Housh Tutor Center, located in Foss Center, Room 18, arranges for students to meet with tutors for content tutoring in most freshman- and sophomore-level courses. The center also notifies students of tutoring labs available and coordinates supplementary instruction sessions, in which tutors attend the classes and lead discussions after class on major concepts of the course. The John Evans Learning Laboratory, located in Foss Center, Room 18, offers students the opportunity to improve skills in reading, writing, and mathematics through the use of computer software, as well as to review and prepare software for tests such as PPST, MCAT, GAT, and GRE. Tutors are available to demonstrate the uses of the software, and students are able to monitor their progress. PROGRAM FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES (CLASS) The Center for Learning and Adaptive Student Services (CLASS) Program serves nearly 200 students and is recognized as a leader in educating college students with disabilities. The CLASS Program exemplifies the College's commitment to provide a high-quality liberal arts education for students with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and preparation. Augsburg is committed to recruiting, retaining, and graduating students with diagnosed learning, physical, and psychiatric disabilities who demonstrate the ability and willingness to participate in college-level learning. The CUSS staff includes four licensed learning disabilities specialists and a physical disabilities specialist who meet individually with students to assist them with advising and registration, academic support services, learning strategies, self-advocacy skills, organization and time management, and selecting appropriate accommodations. The accommodations specialist coordinates testing accommodations, notetaking services, taped textbooks, adaptive technology, such as dictation and voice recognition software, a scanner, CCTY Braille printer, adaptive keyboards, and computer assistance. Student Life The Groves Computer Lab is designed for students with disabilities and contains computers and adaptive equipment to assist them in their academic progress. The campus is accessible to students with physical disabilities and includes a skyway tunnel elevator system that connects 10 major buildings. Modified and accessible rooms are available in all residence halls. For more information, please contact the CLASS Program at (612) 330-1053 to request a copy of the CLASS brochure and video andlor to schedule an appointment with a specialist.

It advises and supports the Intertribal Student Union. 1 STEPUP PROGRAM Intertribal Student Union: ITSU serves as a peer support group for incoming and currently-enrolled American Indian students. ITSU also organizes and co-sponsors cultural events. The mission of the StepUP Program at Augsburg College is threefold: (1) it strives to affirm the College's commitment to provide a high-quality liberal arts education for students with diverse backgrounds, experiences and preparation; (2) it provides students in recovery who demonstrate the willingness and ability to participate in college-level learning with ongoing study and living skills that support them in their academic progress toward a degree; and (3) it supports students in their commitment to sobriety. Minnesota Indian Teacher Training Partnership: MNITTP is a cooperative effort between Augsburg College and the Minneapolis Public School District, intended to increase the number of American Indian teachers in the Minneapolis public schools. Funded by the Minnesota State Legislature in 1990, this project is designed as a special grant and loan forgiveness program. Students who are awarded state teaching licensure may then apply for loan forgiveness for each year the student teaches; one fifth of the loan will be forgiven. AMERICAN INDIAN STUDENT SERVICES The American Indian Student Services Program, located at 620 2lst Avenue South, is a multifaceted office established in 1978 to recruit and retain American Indian students. It is a national model of success and continues to have one of the highest retention and graduation rates of American Indian students in the state of Minnesota. American Indian Studies Minor: An academic component encompassing the range of American Indian contributions to North American culture. Courses offered include art, religion, history, literature, Ojibwe language, and women's issues. For more information, contact the director of American Indian studies at (612) 3301385, or see course listings under Interdisciplinary Studies in the Departments and Programs section of the catalog. Anishinabe Library Project: Over 1,000 books, a variety of journals and scholarly publications, research materials, American 2 - Student Life Indian magazines and newspapers, and over 125 VHS videos are housed in the Lindell Library and at the American Indian Student Services office. The library project offers both a historical and contemporary perspective on the cultures of various tribal nations in the United States. PAN ASIAN STUDENT SERVICES The Pan Asian Student Services Program was created in 1992 to recruit and retain Asian American students and to enhance the quality of their total experience while at Augsburg College. The program seeks to create opportunities where Asian American students can be involved in and contribute to all aspects of academic and student life. The program provides assistance in the admissions and financial aid application procedures, orientation, registration and coursework selection, career development, academic and non-academic difficulties, and employment and placement referrals. The Asian American Association is affiliated with the program. The association cames out various activities during the academic year to increase the network of friendship and support for Asian American and other students at Augsburg. PAN-AFRIKAN STUDENT SERVICES The program is committed to enhancing the education and personal development of students of African descent, and to promote cultural and historical awareness, academic achievement, and social interaction. It sponsors events and activities such as celebrating Martin Luther King's birthday, Afrikana History Month, the Each One Reach One mentoring program, and Augsburg African American Alumni Council gatherings. The Pan-Afrikan Student Union (PASU) provides support to students, including a schedule of social and cultural activities. The headquarters is in the Pan-Afrikan Student Services office, as is the PanAfrikan Center. HISPANIC/LATINO STUDENT SERVICES The HispanicLatino Student Services Program offers students individualized attention in many areas, including academic support, counseling, and advocacy. Students find assistance in admissions and financial aid procedures, orientation and registration, academic planning, career counseling, housing, internships and employment, and placement referrals.

Introduction to Interim Interim is an integral part of the school year at Augsburg College. The College follows a 4- 1-4 calendar, with fall and spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a four-week January Interim. Interim is intended to be a time for both students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and learning and to investigate questions and topics in places and ways not possible during the regular term. Interim is an opportunity for intense concentration on a single course of study. Since one Interim course equals a fulltime load, students should plan to spend the same amount of time in class and preparing for class as they would for a fourcourse load during fall or spring semesters. Students should be prepared for at least 40 class hours during the Interim and should anticipate the equivalent of the normal two hours of study for each class hour. Since the course length is only 3 '12 weeks, attendance at every class is imperative. While it is expected that students will attend every class period, instructors will establish the precise attendance policy for their courses. Students can register for only one course credit during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who chooses not to enroll in an Interim course. Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale. Students generally have the option to register on a PassINo credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on the PIN system; this is indicated in the course description. Some courses are offered for either upper or lower division credit. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and students must select which is most appropriate for their needs. Students registering for upper division credit should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading standard. Some courses, especially courses with travel requirements, have additional fees associated with them. These fees, although intended to be accurate, may change and students should check with the instructor to verify the final costs. Students are required to complete at least 33 course credits for graduation. This course total must include two Interims for students who enter with fewer than 14 courses. Freshmen are required to take an Interim course their first year. A maximum of four Interim course credits may be counted toward the 33 course credits required for graduation. Transfer students should refer to their transfer credit evaluation form or consult the registrar for the number of Interim courses required. Day school students (3.0 credits or more for fall) can take a total of 1.0 course credit. They may take two half-credit classes. They may also take a lifetime sport (zero credit). The lifetime sport is at no additional charge if they are full-time students (fall term). If less than full-time, they will be charged. Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim as a cross registration but will be charged day school tuition ($1,564) per course credit. If they do so they may take only 1.0 additional course credits in Weekend College for winter trimester. Augsburg College, as affirmed in its mission, does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, national or ethnic origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, status with regard to public assistance, or disability in its education policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, athletic and/or school administered programs, except in those instances where religion is a bonafide occupational qualification. Augsburg College is conimitted to providing reasonable accommodations to its employees and its students. Any questions concerningAugsburgs compliance with fideral or state regulations implementing equal access and opportunity can be directed to Lora Steil, affirmative action coordinator, Ofice of Human Resources, CB 79,Augsburg College, 2211 Riverside Ave., Minneapolis, MN 55454. She can be reached by telephone, (612) 330-1023; or by e-mail, ateil@augsburg.edu>. Options International Interim-Students are invited to participate in the international Interim courses offered by the Upper Midwest Association for Intercultural Education (UMAIE) and other consortia. These course opportunities are listed on page 45. Some courses have early registration deadlines. Internships deadline-Friday, December 11. January Interim internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an internship must meet departmental requirements and present a signed internship-learning agreement plan to the Center for Service, Work, and Learning (1st floor Memorial) by the first day of Interim classes. The learning-agreement forms are available in the same office. Internships during Interim must involve full-time work placements for approximately four weeks. Assistance for planning internships is available in the Center for Service, Work, and Learning. Independent studylresearch or directed study-Students may elect a program of independent study (upper division 499) or directed study (lower division 299) for Interim. Faculty members are strongly discouraged from accepting responsibility for more than one independent study per Interim. Students choosing to pursue independent or directed study must: 1. Meet departmental requirements 2. Present to the registrar a copy of the proposed study plan approved by the supervising faculty member and the directedlindependent study registration form. These forms must be submitted by December 1. Appropriate study proposal and registration forms can be obtained in the Office of the Registrar. Interims at other schools-Augsburg students may enroll at any other 4- 1-4 institution that offers a reciprocal Interim arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim programs are available in the registrar's office. Registration for Interims at the other ACTC colleges will be at Augsburg during the regular registration period. Most courses taught during the Interim at other 4-1-4 schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but may not necessarily be accepted as meeting Augsburg's general education requirements. Visiting Students Augsburg College welcomes students from other 4-1-4 schools for the January Interim without tuition charges, provided the student's home institution agrees not to charge tuition to Augsburg students for the January term. The waiver of tuition does not include special fees, housing, or board costs. Other students will be charged $1,564 for the Interim course. Students interested in registering for an Augsburg Interim should write to the Office of the Registrar for application forms or use the forms provided by the Interim office at their own school. There is an application processing fee of $10. Students are welcome to stay on campus but are not required to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be made to the Office of Residence Life. It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor visiting students may register for 199,299,399, or 499 courses.

Prerequisite: Junior standing or consenl of the instructor Liberal Arts Perspective: IntercuNural Awareness 1 Maximum Enrollment: 20 Time: I Room: Old Main 29 Introduction to Polymer Chemistry and American Plastic CHM 104-J Instructor: Ron Fedie Previously there was the Stone Age, Iron Age, and Bronze Age. Now we live in the Age of Plastics. Without this innovative technology, life as we know it would be much different. The variety of polymer molecules and their properties make up various plastics. Through chemistry the variations are endless. Many items and materials such as coatings, adhesives, leisure/sports equipment, construction supplies, automobile parts, clothes, medical supplies, cosmetics, and others used every day come from different polymer molecules. In this course we will explore and discuss the world of polymer chemistry with a special focus on plastic. There are both synthetic and natural polymers. Most plastics come from synthesized polymers found in "plastic" wrap and trash bags. A common natural polymer, polyisoprene, is collected from the sap of rubber tree-golf balls and latex gloves are just two of its popular uses. The class will also focus on the book American Plastic: A Cultural History by Jeffrey Meikle. Themes from the book, the different types of polymers used, and recent themes such as the recycling of plastics will be discussed. There will be supplemental handouts on some of the important natural polymers not covered in the book. There will be labs in which some polymer molecules will be made and the various properties will be explored. This will help to give a hands-on experience with the seemingly unlimited possibilities of properties in these long chain molecules. Prerequisite:Malh Placement Group 2 Liberal Arts Perspeclive: Natural World 1 or 2 Maximum Enmllmenl: 25 Time: I1 Room: Science 315 Introduction to Computer Science and Communications CSC 160-J Instructor: Larry Ragland This course introduces the major areas of computer science and computer communications.

Students must complete designated hours of fieldwork as well as written and reading assignments. Prerequisite: EOU 282, completion of courses for special education minor, or consent of instructo~ Maximum Enrollmenf: 9 (This course involves fieldworksupe~isionfor the faculty member) Time: 11 Room: Sverdrup 4 American Dialects: Differences and Attitudes ENG 219-J Instructor: John Schmit Language plays an important role in our socialization and acculturation. The way we speak tells others who we are and tells us who others are. Our speech is a reflection of our social and economical standing and our cultural background. For this reason we should expect women to speak differently from men. And yet somehow we do not. We should expect anyone from a different background to have differences of language. Even more importantly, we must understand these differences in order to make sure that we understand speakers from different language communitites. This course will examine the dialects of various English-speaking communities and attempt to describe and understand their rules of speech: their grammatical rules, phonological rules, and their rules on discourse. It will include lectures, student presentations, and student-led discussions. Besides presenting a topic, students will write a paper on the presentation topic and take a final exam. Liberal Arts Perspective: Intercultural Awareness 1 Maximum Enrollment: 25 Time: I1 Room: Old Main 29 Topics: Introduction to Asian American Literature ENG 282/382-1 Instructor: Joan Thompson In an essay about multicultural American literature, Walter J. Ong writes that "literature is organized experience and consciousness. Since cultures organize experience and consciousness variously, the study of the literature of another culture opens new vistas both into the exterior world and into the human heart." This course will explore some of these vistas through readings and discussions of nonfiction works, poetry, short stories, a play, and a novel by Asian American authors. Some ideas the writers take as subjects through their art include definitions of an Asian American voice, explorations of cultural and individual identity, visions of community, and coming of age. Class sessions will include discussion of the historical and social contexts that influence the writers studied. In addition to the reading, students will view at least one Asian American film and possibly attend a relevant performance or reading. Course grades will be based on reading journal, a short paper, a final exam, class attendance, and participation. Upper division students will read an additional novel and write a research-based paper on it. Liberal Ads Perspective: Intercultural Awareness 1 Maxium Enrollment: 25 Time: I1 Room: Old Main 16 Topics: The Heroic Journey ENG 282-J Instructor: Joan Griffin "The hero:' says Joseph Campbell, "is the man or woman who has been able to battle past his personal and local historical limitations to the generally valid, normally human forms." This struggle, the heroic journey, is a quest for wholeness, for harmony with oneself, one's society, and even the universe. The journey may be physical, moral, psychological, or spiritual, but it always concludes with the regeneration of the hero and/or the redemption of the hero's society. This course will study archetypal patterns of the heroic journey as well as specific examples of such journeys, emphasizing the work of Joseph Campbell, but also citing studies of the hero by Lord Ragland, Carol Pearson, and Richard Slotkin, among others. We will note that major heroic genres in western traditionthe epic and romance-almost always assume that the hero is usually a warrior and aristocrat. Thus we will analyze typical elements of the heroic warrior myth as depicted in ancient and medieval epics and romances, but will also pay particular attention to its appearance in contemporary American popular narratives. We will consider the implications of the enduring popularity of this rendition of the heroic journey. The heroic journey, however, is a human journey, and thus the course will also emphasize the heroic journeys of women as well as of men who may be neither aristocratic nor warriors. As a lower division literature course, ENG 282 does not assume that the student is proficient in literary analysis. Rather the course will help students develop analytic and critical reading, thinking, and writing abilities. Course requirements: There will be 15 class meetings, each lasting three to four hours. Course grades are based on class attendance and participation as well as on daily writing and formal papers. If you must miss more than one or two classes or frequently leave class early, you should not take this course.

Intercultural principles are studied in the context of personal, national, and global differences. Students identify the factors that shape their ways of seeing the world and, through experiential activities, discover how similar factors help shape distinctive ways of seeing the world among those who are culturally different. Specific cross-cultural competencies are then presented to help students embrace a diverse and complex world. In addition to required readings, students will be evaluated on the basis of a journal (15 percent), completion and analysis of a self-assessment questionnaire (15 percent), writing of critical incidents (20 percent) and culture-specific reports (20 percent), and daily quizzes (30 percent).

It's got four more letters than ours, but some of the letters are the same. There is just one new sound-the same "r" that's in Spanish. The alphabet that features a backwards "R" and an "H"that morphs into an "0"gets a lot of use in international business, in science, and in the arts. More Europeans speak Russian natively than any other language: 170 million native speakers. The course will hit vocabulary, sentence structure, communication, and culture-like any other foreign-language course on campus. And that alphabet means you'll be giggling all the time.

Developed mainly through the viewing of films and class discussions, the course is complemented with brief readings and audio-visual materials on the historic, literary, and social aspects that contribute to the background of these films. Most of the films are in Spanish with English subtitles, and all the class work is in English.

Caribbean musical forms, such as reggae and salsa, have long been popular and effective means of expressing cultural difference and social discontent, particularly for those with African heritage. This course will explore the world of Caribbean music through visits to recording studios, clubs where Caribbean music is performed, and neighborhoods that brought about this music. Also studied in depth will be social issues that have influenced music like reggae. Cities to be visited are Miami; and Montego Bay, Negrel, and Kingston in Jamaica. Cost is $2,460, which includes all travel, accommodations, breakfast, and tuition.

Frame President .I[. 1 E d u c a t i o n a l HISTORY OF WEEKEND COLLEGE In fall of 1982 Augsburg began Weekend College under the directorship of Dr. Richard Thoni. At that time Weekend College had three majors, 69 students, and offered eight courses in the first term. ; Today with more than 1,000 students and 14 majors, Augsburg's Weekend College is the largest program of its kind in the state. Faculty in Weekend College are full-time Augsburg professors as well as adjunct professionals from the work world. The Weekend College student body is involved in student government, and Weekend College students participate in academic and extracurricular activities such as the student newspaper, travel seminars, and the Weekend College Commission. Augsburg Weekend College continues to develop to meet the changing needs of the adult and nontraditional student of today. PURPOSE Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults who desire college experience but who work or have other commitments during the week. It is a means by which men and women may earn a baccalaureate degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the liberal arts. MISSION OF THE COLLEGE Students who graduate from Augsburg are well prepared to make a difference in the world. They stand as testaments to the College motto, "Education for Service," and to the mission of the College: To nurture future leaders in service to the world by providing high quality educational opportunities, which are based in the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community. THEADULTAS LEARNER A COMMUNITYOF LEARNERS Augsburg Weekend College is designed to meet the needs and preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the assumption that the men and women who enroll in Weekend College will be mature, self-disciplined, and well-motivated adult learners who seek a balance of classroom experience and individualized study. Each course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated on-campus study separated by time for independent study and class preparation. ALTERNATE WEEKENDS To accommodate this format for learning, classes generally meet on alternate weekends for three and one-half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each course selected by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods. Laboratory sections or additional class hours may be scheduled during the week. Weekend College students may take from one to four courses each term. Selected courses are also available on weekday evenings. Essential to the goals of Augsburg's Weekend College is participation in a community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the student is active in a stable community that provides opportunity and encouragement for involvement 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 Lindell Library and the Christensen 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. FACULTV The heart of any educational institution is its faculty, and Augsburg College is particularly proud of the excellence and commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold the doctorate or other terminal degree and all consider their teaching to be the focus of their activity. Faculty are involved in social, professional, and a variety of research activities, but see these activities as supporting their teaching. They are actively involved in an exciting faculty development program that introduces them to current thought in many fields, but especially in teaching techniques and theories. Augsburg's size and small classes encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and students. Faculty act as academic advisers and participate regularly in campus activities. History Augsburg College and Seminary was founded in 1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. In 1963 the name officially became Augsburg College when the Seminary left campus as part of the Lutheran Free Church merger with the American Lutheran Church. Location Augsburg's 23-acre campus is in the heart of the Twin Cities metropolitan area, only blocks from downtown Minneapolis and the intersection of Interstate Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent to the campus are the FairviewUniversity Medical Center, the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota, and the Mississippi River parkways. Campus Augsburg's campus consists of 16 major buildings, which include student housing towers, Christensen Center, main academic and administrative halls, Lindell Library, Music Hall, and the Foss Center for Worship, Drama, and Communication. Accessibility We have made a major effort to become one of the most accessible campuses in the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any of 10 major buildings without going outside. In addition to building changes, we have a dedicated program to provide support for students with disabilities. Church Affiliation Augsburg is a college of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Although a strong plurality of students are Lutheran, 20 percent represent other Protestant denominations and 21 percent represent the Roman Catholic Church. Several other affiliations are represented among students and faculty.

Transcripts Have official transcripts from all previously attended postsecondary institutions sent directly to the Augsburg Weekend College Office. Applicants with less than one year of previous transferable college work should also have their official high school transcript sent. The G.E.D. test certificate may be presented instead of the high school transcript. Additional Information If there is personal information that may have affected the applicant's previous academic performance, it may be included with the application or discussed personally with the admissions director. Academic recommendations may be required by the Admissions Committee before an admissions decision is made. On occasion, the Admissions Committee may also defer on a candidate's admission until other information has been received. For example, test scores, results of current coursework, additional letters of recommendation, or writing samples may be requested by the committee. If any additional credentials are needed, the Admissions Office will inform the candidate. Notification of Admissions Decision Augsburg College uses a "rolling" admissions plan. Students are notified of the admissions decision, usually within two weeks after the application file is complete and has been evaluated by the Admissions Committee. Admission to a major, as well as admission to the College, is sometimes necessary. Please check with the admissions coordinator and major sections in this catalog to see if admission to the major is necessary. ~raisferCredit Augsburg College welcomes students who wish to transfer after completing work at other accredited colleges or univer- sities. College credit is granted for liberal arts courses satisfactorily completed at accredited institutions. The College reserves the right not to grant credit for courses where it considers the work unsatisfactory, to grant provisional credit for work taken at unaccredited institutions, and to require that certain courses be taken at Augsburg. Augsburg College limits transfer of credit from twoyear colleges once a student has reached junior status. If all transfer work has been taken at a two-year college, a maximum of 17 Augsburg courses, or 96 quarter credits, will be accepted toward the minimum of 33 Augsburg course credits required for the baccalaureate degree. Transfer Credit Evaluation An evaluation of transfer credit is completed by the registrar upon admission for each degree-seeking student who is transferring previous college work. This evaluation indicates which of the student's courses have been accepted for transfer credit at Augsburg College and how many course credits the student has earned in transfer. The registrar also determines which transfer courses may be used to fulfill general education requirements and may request that the student provide course descriptions, syllabi or other information to assist in this determination. For an evaluation of transfer courses toward major, minor, or licensure requirements, the student should consult the appropriate department chair. ACADEMICADVISING The Academic Advising Center advises all incoming students, provides information about general education requirements, administers and tracks entry level skill assessments, and advises students placed on academic probation. The Advising Center also assists students with degree planning and assigns each student to a faculty adviser during their first term at Augsburg.

Students who unofficially withdraw (stop attending) and do not complete the dropladd form are responsible for all charges. Financial aid may be adjusted based on the student's last recorded date of attendance. Augsburg College will determine the appropriate refund calculation based on the student's circumstances and federal guidelines.

A i d Augsburg Refund Policy Applies to new and returning Augsburg students who drop a portion of their scheduled course load. Also applies to students who completely withdraw from college and do not receive financial aid.

The Augsburg Refund Schedule is effective whether or not a student has attended classes. All refunds of charges will be applied to the account of the student and all adjustments for aid, loans, fines, deposits, etc, will be made before eligibility for a cash refund of any resulting credit balance is determined. Please allow two weeks for a refund. Note: The refund is a percentage of the full tuition charged, not a percentage of any deposit made toward tuition (e.g., deposits; made under the company reimbursement payment plan). Pro-Rata Refund Policy Applies to new Augsburg students who withdraw from all courses during their first term at Augsburg and receive Federal Title IV financial aid. (Federal Title IV financial aid includes the Pell Grant, SEO Grant, Perkins Loan, Stafford Loan, and PLUS Loan.) Tuition, fees, and room costs will be calculated based on the pro-rated portion of the term completed. The student may be eligible for a pro-rata refund up to the 60 percent point in time of the term. The student account will be credited for that portion of tuition and room for which he or she was not enrolled. This calculation will use federal government guidelines. Federal Refund Policy Applies to returning Augsburg students who withdraw from all courses for the current term and receive Federal Title IV financial aid. (Federal Title IV financial aid includes the Pell Grant, SEO Grant, Perkins Loan, Stafford Loan, and PLUS Loan.) Augsburg College is required by federal regulations to complete two refund calculations for students who have completed at least one full term at Augsburg and receive Title IV funds. Refunds will be based on the calculation that provides for the greatest refund of tuition, fees, and room charges to the student's account and the greatest refund of financial aid dollars to the fund from which they were awarded.

Requests for this additional refund must be made to the Petition Committee and must be accompanied by a written report from the attending health professional stating the inability for, or inadvisability of, continued study. Students charged on a singlecourse fee basis who have completed payment of assessed tuition may choose between this partial tuition refund and a tuition-free course retake credit. A retake credit may be used only to repeat the same course from which the student withdrew. This choice between refund and tuition-free retake credit must be made at the time of the request to the Petition Committee, and the choice of monetary refund or retake credit may not be changed subsequently. Students should be aware that their choice of refund or retake credit may adversely affect their financial aid eligibility and that they bear full responsibility for the effects of their choices. Retake credits must be used within one academic year or the next time the course is offered if that is longer than one year.

Cooperative education jobs are flexible and can begin and end anytime. Cooperative education is not credited in and of itself, but a non-credit cooperative education transcript entry is available during the academic terms the student is employed. Cooperative education students are encouraged to complete at least one internship for credit in conjunction with their cooperative education participation. Cooperative education is available to Augsburg students who have completed their freshman year and are in good academic standing. Academic Internships An internship for academic credit is a carefully planned, work-based learning experience where a student focuses on specific academic and individual learning objectives. A learning agreement plan-negotiated with a faculty supervisor and work supervisor, outlining the internship objectives, strategies, and evaluation methods-is required. An academic internship is approved, supervised, and evaluated by a faculty member in the department in which the student wishes to earn the internship credit. Upper division internships are numbered 399 and lower division internships are numbered 199. Information on registering for internships may be obtained from the Center for Service, Work, and Learning. Internships are available in all majors and can be taken during a Weekend College trimester or summer session. For extension of an internship beyond one term see the section of the catalog under grading. Community Service-Learning Augsburg's Community Service-Learningprogram combines response to human needs in the community with a conscious awareness and understanding of issues, reflection, and educational growth. Augsburg students learn from and about the community and society in which they live by participating in orientation sessions, direct servicelearning activities, and seminars or class discussions. Through direct service, such as volunteering at a homeless shelter, tutoring, building housing for low income people, or working with environmental groups, students engage in a dynamic and interactive educational approach that employs reciprocal learning between the student(s) and the community. Service-learning includes course-imbedded community service, tutoring, internships, cooperative education, and a wide range of volunteer options. Career Services The Career Services Office is committed to assisting all students with their career planning.

The intramural program provides competition in a variety of team sports as well as individual performance activities. Broomball has been an especially popular coed sport. Check schedules for times when there is open use of the gymnasium, fitness center, ice arena, and the air structure, which offers a place to walk or run during winter months. Social, Cultural, Recreational Activities Throughout the year, a variety of social and cultural activities takes place on campus as well as in the Twin Cities. These activities include dances, films, theme events, name S t u d e n t R e s o u r c e s . entertainment, and visiting personalities in various fields. Weekend College Commission The Weekend College Commission (WECC) is a student organization that plans educational and social programs for Weekend College students and their families. Membership is open to all students. Academic and Learning Services The Academic and Learning Services Division is comprised of the academic programs, services, and activities dedicated to supporting students' educational experience at Augsburg College. Student Government Through student government students secure a closer relationship with and better understanding of the administration and faculty, and provide input into the decision-making process at Augsburg. Student government also sponsors and directs student activities, protects student rights, and provides the means for discussion and action on all issues pertaining to student life at Augsburg. Student government is organized into the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch. Representatives from the Weekend College are elected each year. Eleven Weekend College representatives and the Weekend College president comprise the Weekend College delegation. Many kinds of involvement are possible-program planning, writing, editing, or service opportunities. Students who are interested should contact the president or vice-president of the student body in their offices in the lower level of the Christensen Center. Student Guide Augsburg publishes its policies and procedures in the Student Guide, which is available to every student. Included are the Academic Honesty Policy, Policy on Sexual Harassment and Violence, Disciplinary Policy and Procedure, and the Grievance Policy and Procedure. Students wishing to obtain a Student Guide may contact the Student Life office. Student standards of behavior, complaints, records The College has adopted a statement of standards for student behavior and has provided for due process in matters of disciplinary action, grievances, and grade appeal. The College operates in compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. Students have the right to inspect certain official records, files, and data that pertain to them, which are maintained in the Office of the Registrar and the Placement Office, and to challenge inaccurate or misleading information. Persons seeking additional information on these topics should contact the associate dean for student affairs.

Only one course from a department may be used to fulfill a single category, except Christian Faith, language, and a year long science sequence for Natural World. No more than three courses from any one department may fulfill perspectives. 4) Completion of courses that fulfill the following Graduation Skills: Writing (two courses, one within the major) Critical thinking (one course) Speaking (one course) Quantitative reasoning (one course) These courses must be completed with a minimum grade of 2.0 or P. ?ate: A course may satisfy both a major or minor requirement, a perspective, and a graduation skill requirement. 5) Demonstration of proficiency in two Lifetime Sports 6) Achievement of a Math Placement Group score of 3 (College algebra level ) The following requirements also must be met to graduate: 1) Completion of 33 course credits 1 1 of these must be upper division (numbered 300 and above); no more than 13 courses may be in any one department with the exception of accounting and social work. 2) Maintenance of a minimum grade point average A minimum GPA of 2.0 for most majors is necessary to graduate. A grade point average of 2.0 is required both in overall courses taken and in courses that apply toward the major. Some majors, licensure, and certification require higher grades in each course or a higher grade point average. (For example, see Licensure in Education, Nursing, Social Work.) See departmental section for details. 3) Residency Seven of the last nine course credits must be completed at Augsburg. No less than a total of nine course credits are to be taken at Augsburg College. Contact the registrar if an official interpretation is needed. 4 ) Muximums-no more than: Two course credits by independentldirected study Four course credits of Internship Eight course credits with a grade of Pass (P) Nontraditional grading (P) also has these limits: two in the major, except elementary education (two in the major plus student teaching) and nursing (no P/N grading is permitted); one in the minor, if approved by the department chairperson. Students who have completed a four-year degree at an accredited college or university may complete a second degree at Augsburg College. Depending on the student's previous degree, completion of a second major (non-degree) may also be an option. Second degree requirements include: a minimum of eight course credits taken at Augsburg, completion of a major, and completion of any liberal arts requirements not covered by the previous degree. The responsibility for meeting all degree requirements rests with the student. Academic advisers, department chairpersons, the Advising Center, and the registrar are available for counsel and assistance in program planning. Each student must apply for graduation. Students should apply at the start of their last academic year to confirm remaining graduation requirements. Application forms are available in the Registrar's Office. All degree and course requirements must be completed and verified in the Registrar's Office prior to the anticipated date of graduation (there may be no incomplete courses or open courses on the academic record). A c a d e m i c (or 2.5 if receiving a Minnesota State Student Grant). Registration consists of two parts: Scheduling (choosing classes)-A student reserves a space in classes for each trimester by completing a schedule form. Scheduling can be done in advance of payment. Payment (confirmation of schedule)-A student who has scheduled courses must then confirm that schedule by paying. Dates and deadlines for scheduling and payment are listed in the Weekend College Catalog Supplement. SOMEIMPORTANT POINTSON REGISTRATION: A student must be registered for a course in order to receive course credit for it. A student in Weekend College is considered fulltime if he or she registers for two courses per trimester Students are responsible for obtaining registration materials from the Weekend College Office. A student who has not paid or made partial payment prior to the first day of classes is not registered for their course(s). The student may register and confirm the first class weekend, but late fees will apply and their space in the course(s) will not be held. CROSSOVER POLICY It is expected that Weekend College students complete their degree requirements in the Weekend College schedule; however, students may take a course in the day schedule as a crossover. A Weekend College student wishing to attend a day schedule course, or a day student wishing to attend a course in Weekend College, must schedule at the Office of the Registrar. Students taking courses in both the day program and Weekend College program schedules that total three or more courses on any given date will be charged comprehensive day program tuition. A Weekend College student taking one day schedule course and who has fewer than three total courses will be charged the current part-time tuition for day school. Students will also follow these guidelines: Students may cross over for one full course credit per term. The course selected must have space available. Weekend College students may not cross over to attend ACTC (Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities) courses, except when required by the major to do so. Courses cross-listed in the Weekend College schedule and the day schedule are not subject to cross over policy. Contact the Office of the Registrar for more information on the crossover policy. WITHDRAWING FROM COURSES Students may drop (also referred to as canceling or withdrawing) a particular course by completing a CancelIAddChange of Registration form at the Office of the Registrar before the deadline (published in the Weekend College Catalog Supplement). Dropping a class will result in a W for withdrawal on an official academic record. Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are registered because this may result in a failing grade on their official academic record. The refund schedule is listed on page 14. Note: A student may withdraw after the refund schedule has expired. WITHDRAWAL FROM COLLEGE Students who do not intend to continue at Augsburg must file a Withdrawal from College form at the Office of the Registrar. This is not necessary if the student is taking a term off; however, Weekend College students who do not attend courses for three consecutive trimesters (excluding summer) are considered inactive and must file an Application for Re-admission form with the Office of the Registrar in order to resume their academic program. Students are responsible for keeping the Office of the Registrar informed of their mailing address. SYLLABUS A syllabus is a course outline written by the instructor that may include a course description and objectives, required text@), course schedule, grading criteria, and assignments. A syllabus is especially important in Weekend College because it advises the student of any assignment due the first class weekend. Students are responsible for picking up the course syllabus at the times published in The Weekender, the Weekend College informational publication. EVALUATION AND C RADING Student achievement in courses is measured by final examinations, shorter tests, written papers, oral reports, and other types of evaluation. Most courses are offered with grading options-traditional grading on a 4.0 scale or the Pass/No Credit system, in which P means a grade of 2.0 or better and N means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0. Students who choose the P/N option are cautioned: In order to receive a grade of P a student must achieve at least a grade of 2.0. Some graduate and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of P-graded courses, or rank each as a C. P-graded courses do not count toward the requirement that 14 traditionally graded course credits be earned at Augsburg in order to be considered for graduation with distinction. Transfer students should be especially aware of this requirement. See P/N limitations under Graduation Requirements on page 29. Note: Certain courses are offered on one grading system only (e.g., Lifetime Sports are graded P/N only). In courses where there is a choice, students will be graded on the traditional system unless they indicate on their registration that they wish to use the P/N grading option. Any changes in choice of grading system must be made according to dates published each term. A fee is charged for any changes made after the published deadline for dropping without record notation. I n f o r m a t i o n . NUMERIC GRADES Numeric grades are used with these definitions: 4.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence 3.0 Achieves above basic course standards 2.5 2.0 Meets basic standards for the course 1.0 Performance below basic course standards 0.5 0.0 Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course) Grades of P (Pass) or N (No credit) are not computed in the grade point average. An incomplete grade (I) may be given only in the case of extreme emergency. To receive an incomplete grade, a student must receive permission of the instructor and must file a form with the Registrar's Office stating the reasons for the request, the work required to complete the course, the plan and date for completing the work, and comments from the instructor. The necessary work must be completed in enough time to allow evaluation of the work by the instructor and filing of a grade before the final day of the following trimester. If the work is not completed by that date, the grade for the course becomes a 0.0. Internships, independent studies and directed studies may sometimes last longer than one term. When this is the case, they must be completed by the grading deadlines within one year from the beginning of the first term of registration. A grade of X is given by the instructor to indicate that the study is extended. It is expected that students given X extensions will continue to communicate with their instructors and demonstrate that satisfactory progress is being maintained. A final grade will be issued at the end of the term in which the work is completed and evaluated (but not longer than one year). An instructor has the option of not giving an X where satisfactory progress is not demonstrated. REPEATING COURSES A course in which a grade of 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or N has been received may be repeated for credit. Courses in which higher grades have been earned may not be repeated for credit and a grade but may be audited. All courses taken and grades earned each term remain on the academic record. Only the credits and grades earned the second time, for legitimately repeated courses, are counted toward graduation and in the grade point average. AUDITINGCOURSES Students who wish to take courses without credit or grade may do so by registering for Audit (V). The charge for auditing is listed in the current year's Weekend College Catalog Supplement. The signature of the instructor is required to register an audit. Students who audit a course should confer with the instructor two weeks prior to the beginning of the term to determine expectations, attendance, and any other requirements. If expectations have been met, the course will be listed on the transcript as having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the course will be listed with a grade of W (Withdrawn). Courses for which transfer credit has been awarded may not be repeated for credit at Augsburg. This includes courses that are substantially similar despite different titles or emphases. GRADEPOINTAVERAGE The grade point average (GPA) is based on final grades for all work at Augsburg. It does not include credit and grade points for work transferred from other colleges. Courses taken on the P/N grading option are recorded, but not computed in the GPA. The formula for computing the GPA is: GPA = Total grade points divided by number of course credits attempted.* * Using traditionally graded course credits only. CLASSIFICATION Student classifications are updated in August and at the end of the fall trimester. Sophomores-Seven credits completed. course Juniors - 16 course credits completed. Seniors-24 course credits completed. ACADEMIC PROGRESS, ~ROBAT~O AND N DISMISSAL The College requires that students maintain the following cumulative grade point averages (GPA): Freshman-A student who has taken fewer than seven credits with a cumulative GPA of 1.6 or higher Sophomore-A student who has taken fewer than 16 credits with a cumulative GPA of 1.7 or higher Junior-A student who has taken fewer than 24 credits with a cumulative GPA of 1.9 or higher Senior-A student who has taken 24 or more credits with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher. It should be noted that a minimum GPA of 2.0 is required for graduation with certain majors requiring a higher minimum GPA. Students whose academic achievement falls below these guidelines will either be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term, will be continued on probation, or will be dismissed from the College. In addition, a freshman who receives two zero grades or a sophomore who receives three zero grades will be considered for probation or dismissal. However, dismissal from the College is not automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on Student Standing. Evidence of the student's commitment to academic progress is the major consideration in deciding whether or not to dismiss a student. Those on probation who voluntarily withdraw from the College, as well as those who are dismissed, must have special permission to re-enroll. Students may be removed from probation when the cumulative GPA reaches the minimum level stated above. Students placed on probation as freshmen for having earned two zero grades may be removed from probation if their classification changes to sophomore, if they have not earned additional zero grades, and if their cumulative GPA reaches 1.7. Students placed on probation as sophomores, juniors, and seniors for having earned three zero grades may be removed from probation if their classification changes to junior and their cumulative GPA reaches 1.9. The College reserves the right to dismiss any student who does not meet the guidelines stated above. Once a student is dismissed, he or she may appeal the decision within 10 days to the Committee on Student Standing. A c a d e m i c I DEAN'S LIST The Dean's List is compiled after each trimester, listing students whose grade point average for a trimester is 3.5 or better. Students must be full-time (a minimum two full course credits for a Weekend College student), graded on the traditional grading system, with no incompletes in courses offered for credit. If permission is given by the student, an announcement is sent to the hometown newspaper of each student on the Dean's List. ASSESSMENT OF PREVIOUS LEARNING (APL) PROGRAM Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in many life situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit recognition within the disciplines that compose the academic program of a liberal arts college. The Assessment of Previous Learning (APL) program at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous learning, other than that which is transferred from another accredited institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward the completion of a baccalaureate degree. Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two essential criteria: (1) it is relevant to course work in a field of study within the Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and (2) it can be objectively demonstrated either by comprehensive examination or committee evaluation. The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which students may have their previous learning assessed for credit recognition. The following is a brief description of each of these means of assessment: The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) This is a series of standardized tests which have been developed by the College Board and are offered to students for a small fee at regional testing centers. (The regional testing center for this area is the University of Minnesota.) Students who score at or above the 65th percentile on a subject examination may . . receive academic credit for that subject at Augsburg College. Additional information about CLEP tests is available from the Office of the Registrar. Departmental Comprehensive Exams These are available for students to use in obtaining credit for previous learning if the following conditions are met: There is a departmental instrument available for the subject area in question. There is a faculty member designated by the department to administer the exam. The registrar approves the student's request to take the exam. Credit for departmental exams is available on a passlno credit basis only, and there is a charge per exam of one-half of tuition for a full course credit. The Portfolio Assessment Program This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty team completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the student. The faculty team is composed of two faculty members from . fields of study directly related to the student's previous learning. Students who wish to prepare a portfolio of previous learning for credit assessment should consult the Office of the Registrar. In completing the evaluation of a student's previous learning, the faculty team applies the following criteria: There is documentable evidence of a cognitive component in the previous learning experience that involved prescribed and/or systematic study of content material found within liberal arts course work. The learning has been objectively verified by individuals in addition to the presenting student. The learning lends itself to both qualitative and quantitative measurement. The learning relates well to the student's educational goals. The learning and skills involved are current and could be used at the present time. Students may apply for the credit assessment process after completing at least four course credits of academic work at Augsburg College with a cumulative Augsburg GPA of at least 2.5. It is strongly recommended that the process not be used when four or fewer courses remain for graduation. There is an application deposit to initiate the credit assessment process and a charge for each semester credit applied to the student's transcript if credit is approved. Transcript credit will be granted on the basis of semester credits, and the total number of credits granted will be divided by four to determine the number of course credits applied to graduation. These credits will be recorded with the course number of APL 2xx. Application of this credit toward the Liberal Arts Perspective requirements, upper division requirements, and academic majors and minors may be subsequently addressed by the associate academic dean in response to a formal request by the student. Maximum Credit Accepted for Previous Learning While Augsburg College recognizes the validity of learning that takes place outside the traditional classroom, this learning must be I . . placed in the context of formal study in campus-based liberal arts courses. Therefore, Augsburg places a maximum of eight course credits (about one-fourth of a baccalaureate degree) on transcript credit that is obtained through previous experiential learning. In compiling the eight courses of credit for previous experiential learning, the student may use any combination of assessment processes available in the APL program: CLEP exams, departmental exams, and credit granted through portfolio assessment. Lifetime SportsAssessment of Previous Learning (APL) Program Students in the Weekend College may complete one of the two required graduation skills of Lifetime Sports through the APL process. The Lifetime Sports graduation skills are non-academic courses and no credit is earned by their completion; however, fulfillment of two Lifetime Sports is necessary to graduate. There is a fee for each Lifetime Sport completed by APL. Additional information about Lifetime Sports APL is available from the Weekend College Office. A c a d e m i c M a j o r s . I ACCOUNTING-ACC The major in accounting prepares students for professional careers in a wide variety of accounting-related positions. This major has two tracks: General Accounting and Professional Accounting. The General Accounting specialization is adequate for a wide variety of positions. The Professional Accounting track includes two specializations: public accounting and managerial accounting. The public accounting specialization is recommended for positions with CPA firms. The managerial accounting specialization is recommended for positions with large or rapidlygrowing companies. The two professional specializations relate to two professional designations: the CPA and the CMA. A CPA (Certified Public Accountant) focuses on external reporting; a CMA (Certified Management Accountant) focuses on internal reporting. The public accounting specialization includes the materials emphasized on the CPA exam; the managerial specialization includes the materials emphasized on the CMA exam. Designations have an experience requirement in addition to passing the national exam. Under the rules of the Minnesota State Board of Accountancy, accounting majors in the public accounting specialization are qualified to sit for the CPA examination during their last semester. Accounting Core: 14 courses are required for this major (an exception to the 13-course limitation): (It is recommended that students take the courses in the sequence given below.)

At Augsburg, art study is further enhanced by associations with a significant number of art galleries and museums in the Twin Cities area. Hundreds of specific careers exist in the general area of art, such as teaching in the public schools and colleges, ceramics, interior design, photography, film and video work, painting, gallery and museum work, and design. ART 223 Printmaking I ART 225 Communication Design I ART 360 Watercolor Painting One course in three dimensional art from: ART 221 Sculpture I ART 250 Ceramics I Five additional studio arts courses ART 240 Art History Survey And two additional art history courses Studio Art Major Majors are required to begin their programs with the Studio Arts Foundations: ART 102 Design ART 107 Drawing One course in two dimensional art from: ART 118 Painting I Teaching Licensure Major The State of Minnesota has specific licensing requirements for teachers that may differ slightly in emphasis from the Augsburg major requirements. The state requirements may also be subject to change after publication of this catalog. Students therefore should consult with the Augsburg Education Department to identify current Minnesota teacher licensure requirements.

The minor is automatically completed while completing a major in accounting or management information systems (MIS). COMMUNICATIONSPC Our quality of life, both personally and professionally, depends in large part upon the quality of our communication. A communication major at Augsburg is designed to enhance understanding of communication in a variety of contexts and to improve communication skills. Since careers in communication demand a broad educational background, the department strongly encour- ages a second major or two minors in fields such as business, economics, English, history, international relations, political science, psychology, religion, social work, sociology, or theatre arts. SPC 351 Argumentation The Augsburg communication major focuses on competency in both speech and writing as well as effective use of media. Since the study and practice of communication is grounded in both the humanities and the social sciences, majors are encouraged to include such related subjects as aesthetics, ethics; philosophy, logic, literature, statistics, and research methods in their programs. SPC 355 Small Group Communication All communication majors must complete a core group of seven required courses, supplemented by five electives in one of the following concentrations: public relations and advertising, marketing communication, human relations, or supervisory management. Prospective majors should meet with a departmental adviser as early as possible to design an approved major program, preferably by the end of the sophomore year. Majors in communication are candidates for the Bachelor of Arts degree. Communication Core Six courses including: SPC 111 Public Speaking SPC 352 Persuasion SPC 354 Interpersonal Communication and at least one course from the following: ENG 223 Writing for Business and the Professions ENG 225 Intermediate Expository Writing ENG 226 Introduction to Creative Writing ENG 227 Journalism In addition, six courses must be completed within one of the following concentrations: Public Relations and Advertising Students interested in the Public Relations emphasis are strongly urged to take ENG 227 (Journalism) as part of the major.

Those who study English believe that an intense concern for words, ideas, and images helps people understand who they are and who they can become. Writing helps us clarify and share our thoughts. Literature helps us contemplate the pains and joys of human existence. Through the study of English 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 of 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 communication, 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 indifferent cultures. ENG 336 British Literature: 17th and 18th Centuries Students with an English major pursue careers in elementary, secondary, and college education, journalism, government, law, the ministry, library science, medicine, advertising, public relations, publishing, writing, and other professions and businesses.

Majors are encouraged to consult their departmental adviser regularly.

MSW students will develop competencies to conduct, analyze and present practice-based research in oral and written form. • The world is interdependent in all areas; students will become knowledgeable of social welfare policies and programs that address changing needs of the world community. • In the interests of constructive social change that promotes social justice, students are educated to address institutional oppression created by issues of age, gender, race/ethnicity, class, disability, sexual orientation or religion. Social justice is a focus throughout the program. MSW Program Concentrations The Master of Social Work program has two program concentrations: Family Practice, or Program Development, Policy and Administration. Students choose one of the two concentrations for their program focus. Family Practice Family, in its diverse forms, is central to society. "Family," in this context, is interpreted broadly as the nurturing system surrounding people. It is inclusive of many areas of need. As a growing number of familyrelated challenges face society, there is an ever-increasing need for professionals who base their practice on in-depth study of the broad spectrum of issues that confront the family . In the Family Practice concentration, students will concentrate on promoting empowerment of the family-nurturing systems from a developmental and holistic perspective. Program Development, Policy and Administration Social change is necessary to foster policies and services that respond to human need. The Program Development, Policy and Administration concentration was developed in response to the growing demand for leadership and administration. Effective services require participatory development, competent practitioners, strong leadership and effective administration. Students in this concentration will learn the knowledge base and develop the skills necessary to promote and achieve needed change, and to develop, lead, guide and administer programs that will serve diverse people in a variety of settings. • ~RRICULUM DESIGN • • • • Integrative Field Work Seminars (including 480 hours of MSW-supervised field work), Research II, one elective and the Thesis Seminar.

Definitions of other letter grades: w Grade given when course is dropped after midterm I Incomplete grade given in case where student is unable to complete course requirements for reasons beyond the student's control. To receive an incomplete, a student must complete a petition and return it to instructor prior to the end of the course. x A grade of X is given by the instructor to indicate that the study (Field Placement and Independent Studies) is extended. A final grade will be issued at the end of the term in which the work is completed and evaluated (but not longer than one year). No more than two courses with a grade below 3.0 will count toward the degree. If a course grade is below 2.0, the course must be repeated; however, no more than two courses can be repeated. Only the credits and grades earned the second time are counted in the grade point average. Summary of Degree Requirements The candidate for graduation must successfully complete 18 courses, 900 hours of supervised field work, and a thesis as outlined in the Curriculum Plan with a GPA of 3.0 or higher. The candidate who has been admitted with Advanced Standing must successfully complete 12 courses, 480 hours of supervised field work and a thesis as outlined in the Curriculum Plan with a GPA of 3.0 or higher.These courses, field work and the thesis must be completed within a four-year period.

While different in structure and purpose, most organizations seek leaders with the following qualities: a vision that is ethically and morally responsible, extending beyond immediate concerns; an understanding of how change occurs and affects the immediate environment; a sensitivity to the complex problems organizations face and an ability to achieve solutions consistent with an organization's mission; the ability to motivate and inspire individuals and groups to work toward a common goal; and the ability to effectively represent the organization both internally and externally. The MAL program provides a means by which individuals may discover and refine these and other abilities fundamental to effective leadership. Accommodating the FullTime Work Schedule Designed to meet the needs and preferences of working adults, the MAL program is based on the assumption that the students who enroll are career-oriented, self-disciplined and well- motivated individuals, seeking a balance of classroom experience, group interaction and individual study. Most courses are organized as seminars with the opportunity for discussion and dialogue. Classes meet on alternate Saturdays for threeand-one-half hours and alternate Thursday evenings for one-andone-half hours. Community of Learners Essential to the goals of the MAL program is participation in a community of learners gathered together on the Augsburg campus. This community is enriched by the students with a variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate community interaction, students are encouraged to make use of the Augsburg library, computer labs and Christensen Center. Individual Professional Development An important component of the MAL program is the professional assessment. The assessment can help students to identify leadership skills and preferred work and learning styles. Nationally recognized test instruments are used; based on the results, students are encouraged to create personalized goals and plans to strengthen areas that may require further development. MAL Practica are designed to meet student needs in areas such as interpersonal communication, approaches to career change, coping with workplace problems, time management and other issues related to leadership and professional development. ~ADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT MODEL The MAL program promotes leadership as a process that 1) inspires cooperation among people who must compete for limited resources, 2) promotes productivity within and beyond the organization, and 3) works toward progress for the individual and the organization. AUGSBURG Leadership Development Model, that serve as specific outcomes for the MAL program. Augsburg's model of leadership development is designed to assess, promote, enhance and refine these capabilities within the individual. To accomplish this, individuals aspiring to positions of leadership must possess three key attributes: a sense of vision, the ability to persuade and the ability to direct action. Underlying these attributes is a broad range of abilities and awareness, outlined in the Leadership Sense of Vision / Ethical • Social awareness • Environmental awareness • Tolerance of religious and philosophical differences • Appreciation of situational complexity Orientation Toward Action ~ ~ Creative Facility for Persuasion / Communicative •Long-term perspective • Flexibility • Adaptability • Innovativeness • Effective listener • Effective speaker • Effective writer • Diplomatic ability • Effective team member • Interpersonal sensitivity "" Culturally Aware • Appreciation for cultural differences • World-view perspective • Tolerance of individual differences ' Risk Assumptive •Curiosity • Achievement motivation • Self-esteem Decisive • Self-confidence • Analytical ability • Ability to think critically • Understanding of research • Ability to manage conflict (This model was developed by Augsburg Faculty Graduate Advisory Committee, 1985-87.) ~RICULUM DESIGN There are two ways to complete the MAL degree. In the Thesis/Leadership Application Project (Thesis/LAP) Option, students complete a thesis or a major leadership application project and 10.5 credits. In the Non-Thesis Option, students must complete 11 credits, two papers, but no thesis. Augsburg uses a course system rather than a credit system in its curriculum. An Augsburg course is equivalent to four semester credits or six quarter credits. Each course includes two or more liberal arts disciplines, encourages pursuit of the designated outcomes and uses a variety of learning techniques appropriate to adult learners. Instructional techniques include case studies, debate, written and oral presentations, and group activity. These techniques develop targeted leadership abilities and understanding. Students are encouraged to see abilities and understandings as cross-disciplinary and to view content areas as integrated. The program reflects the view that the world in which we operate is complex and that dealing with it successfully requires welldeveloped integrative abilities. Thesis/LAP Option Students who select the Thesis/LAP Option are required to develop and carry out an indepth study of some aspect of leadership or of a leadershiprelated topic. This researchbased study gives the student the opportunity to "tie together" what has been learned from the study of leadership and courserelated activities. The principal distinction between the Thesis and the Leadership Application Project lies in their underlying orientation. A Thesis has a more theoretical orientation, while the Leadership Application Project is based on practical application. Both require similar rigor and preparation. For either alternative, the student must register for ML 592, 593 and 594. Differences between these two options will be explored in ML 514 Research Methods and in ML 593 Leadership Research Seminar I. Students who do not complete their Thesis or Leadership Application Project while enrolled in ML 594 Leadership Research Seminar II are required to pay a continuation fee. Non-Thesis Option An alternative to the thesis is the successful completion of two major papers, as described below. The first of these papers will be written in conjunction with ML 580. A student must get a grade of 3.5 or higher on this major paper to complete the Non-Thesis requirement. If the grade for the paper is below 3.5, the student will revise the paper WuRRICULUM DESIGN Elective Courses for Both Options: (at least 7.0 course credits) and submit it to the MAL faculty panel for review and approval. The second paper will be written while enrolled in ML 597 NonThesis Independent Project. A student must get a grade of 3.5 or higher on this paper; it will then be submitted to the MAL faculty panel for review and approval. The judgment of the MAL faculty panel is the final one. The independent research projects approved each year will be presented in a special annual colloquium. All courses are valued at 1.0 credit, unless otherwise designated. ML 592 Thesis/LAP Consultation (0.5 course) ML 521 Methods of Critical Thought (Note: If students wish to (ML 592 is taken in conjunction with ML 594.) ML 530 Ethics in ML 593 Leadership Research Seminar I (0.5 course) ML 531 The Dynamics of ML 594 Leadership Research Seminar II (0.5 course) ML 535 Organizational Theory and Leadership (ML 592, 593 and 594 are to be taken in a student's last two consecutive terms or after the student has completed at least five electives and ML 510.)

International applicants should keep in mind that classes meet on alternating Thursday evenings and Saturdays and that students can take only two classes (plus an optional practicum per trimester, if desired) for a yearly total of six classes. With this schedule students can complete the required course work in less than two years. See Admission Requirements for a description of the admission process, selection criteria and work experience requirements. Application materials required for international applicants are: • Completed application form • $25.00 application fee (nonrefundable) payable in U.S. dollars • A 1-3 page statement relating the applicant's career and life goals to leadership aspirations • Completed Declaration of Finances (see below for further information) • Letter of recommendation in English from an immediate supervisor, assessing leadership potential • Letter of recommendation in English from a work colleague (at the same level) describing the applicant's work style and potential as a leader • Official marksheets with certified translations from all undergraduate institutions attended listing all courses taken, marks earned, dates attended and degree(s) or diploma(s) conferred, if any • Official marksheets with certified translations from all graduate institutions attended listing all courses taken, marks earned, dates attended and degree(s) or diploma(s) conferred, if any • Official results on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) with a minimum score of 590 Applicants may be asked to participate in an interview with graduate program faculty and/or staff members, if the applicant is in the United States. Students and their financial sponsor must complete a Declaration of Finances as part of the application for admission, along with appropriate certifications. Students will need to provide proof of availability of funds for tuition, books and living costs for the academic year in which they want to attend. The College requires students to provide proof of a minimum of $10,000 in U.S. funds for living expenses for themselves plus the cost of tuition. NOTE: Additional information may be required, as requested by Augsburg College, to accurately evaluate educational credentials. Furthermore, supplemental information may be needed to issue an 1-20 or J-1 for students admitted to the MAL program. Information requested for the 1-20 or J-1 will not be used to make an admission decision. ~ALUATION STANDARDS Evaluation of academic performance in the MAL program will be based on number grades using a 4.0 point scale with these definitions: 4.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence. 3.5 3.0 Achieves above basic course standards. 2.5 2;0 1.5 1.0 0.5 0.0 Achieves the minimum passing standard. Performance below basic course standards. Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course). p Achieves at or above the 2.0 level (not computed in grade point average). N Does not meet minimum course standards (no credit and non-punitive - not computed in grade point average). w Grade given when a student withdraws from a course after the deadline for dropping without notation on the record I Incomplete grade given when student is unable to complete course requirements for reasons beyond the student's control. (To receive an incomplete, a student must file a petition with the Graduate Programs Office stating reasons for the request, the plan and date for removing the incomplete grade, the signature of the instructor and any other necessary documentation.) Courses not offered on the numbered grading system are noted in the course descriptions in this catalog as being graded on PIN basis. In order to receive a grade of P, a student must achieve at least a grade of 2.0. No more than two courses with a grade below 3.0 will count toward the degree. No more than two courses with a grade of or below 2.5 can be repeated. Only the credits and grades earned the second time are counted in the grade point average. ~DENT RIGHTS The College has adopted a statement of student rights and responsibilities and provides due process in matters of disciplinary action, grievances and grade appeal. Students who wish to identify appropriate procedures for complaints should contact the Vice President for Student Affairs (330-1160). The College operates in compliance with the Family Rights and Privacy Act and Title IX. Students have the right to inspect all official records that pertain to them and that are maintained in the Registrar's Office and the Placement Office (except where a waiver of access has been signed) and to challenge inaccurate or misleading information. Students have a right to experience education free from discrimination. A Because leadership issues are presented, discussed and analyzed in the classroom, regular attendance is highly important and should be considered a responsibility, not only to one's self, but to one's classmates and course instructor. TTENDANCE POLICY Irregular attendance may, at the discretion of the instructor, adversely affect one's grade. A cADEMIC POLICIES Academic Probation and Dismissal Policies Credit for Prior Education Enrollment Policy/ Leaves of Absence Students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. If a student falls below a 3.0 average, the student will be placed on probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point average must be restored in order for a student to be removed from probation. If a student receives a grade of N or 0.0 in a course, the student must petition successfully with the MAL Advisory Committee before being allowed to continue in the program. A plan for the student to follow would be outlined at that time. If a second grade of Nor 0.0 is received, the student may be dismissed from the program by the MAL Advisory Committee. Students may also be dismissed by the MAL Advisory Committee for behavior detrimental to the program, such as a gross violation of college policy (as published in the Student Guide). Dismissal would occur only after established procedures were followed. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the courses in the MAL program, it is unlikely that courses taken elsewhere may be substituted for a particular course in the curriculum. Students may petition the MAL program director for approval of any variation in the curriculum including the transfer of credit. Transfer credits will be evaluated on an individual basis. The only courses that will be considered for transfer credit are those earned from accredited colleges and universities, whose course content is comparable to those in the MAL program. No more than two courses will be accepted for transfer credit. Students may take either one or two courses per trimester. Enrolling in two courses per trimester enables a student to complete the course work in the program within two years. All students are required to complete all components of the program within five years. Extensions beyond five years will be considered on the basis of petition to the MAL Advisory Committee. Students who leave the program for more than one trimester must request a leave of absence in writing from the MAL program director. A leave of absence may be granted for one calendar year. Time spent on an official leave of absence will not count toward the five year deadline for degree completion. Credit and Contact Hours Each full-credit graduate course in the MAL program is the equivalent of four semester credits or six quarter credits. Students meet in class a total of 31.5 hours and are responsible for a significant amount of individual study and preparation. Last Day to Withdraw from Class The last date on which students may withdraw from a class and receive a "W" on their records is published annually in the MAL Calendar. ~DENT SUPPORT SERVICES Academic advising from the MAL director for program planning is available. As students approach the capstone experience, they select thesis or project advisers to guide them throughout the completion of their program. Graduate program staff are also available to help students with nonacademic advising issues. and a career-search plan are available through the Career Services Office, (612) 330-1162. Professional assessment is administered through the Graduate Programs Office. Work experience related to a student's field of specialization is possible through the Cooperative Education Office, (612) 330-1148.

The College follows a 4- 1-4 calendar, with fall and spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a four-week January Interim. Interim is intended to be a time for both students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and learning and to investigate questions and topics in places and ways not possible during the regular term. Interim is an opportunity for intense concentration on a single course of study. Since one Interim course equals a fulltime load, students should plan to spend the same amount of time in class and preparing for class as they would for a fourcourse load during fall or spring semesters. Students should be prepared for at least 40 class hours during the Interim and should anticipate the equivalent of the normal two hours of study for each class hour. Since the course length is only 3'12 weeks, attendance at every class is imperative. It is expected that students will attend every class period; however, each instructor will establish the precise attendance policy for hislher course. Students can register for only one course credit during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who chooses not to enroll in an Interim course. Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale. Students generally have the option to register on a PassINo Credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on the PIN system; this is indicated in the course description. Some courses are offered for either Upper or Lower Division credit. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and students must select which is most appropriate for their needs. Students registering for Upper Division credit should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading standard. Some courses, especially courses with travel requirements, have additional fees associated with them. These fees, although intended to be accurate, may change and students should check with the instructor to verify the final costs. Students are required to complete at least 33 course credits for graduation. This course total must include two Interims for students who enter with fewer than 14 courses. A maximum of four Interim course credits may be counted toward the 33 course credits required for graduation. Transfer students should refer to their transfer credit evaluation form or consult the Registrar for the number of Interim courses required. Day school students (3.0 credits or more for fall) can take a total of 1.0 course credits. They may take two half-credit classes. They may also take a lifetime sport (zero credit). The lifetime sport is at no additional charge if they are full-time (fall term). If less than full-time they will be charged. Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim as a cross registration but will be charged Day School tuition ($1,497) per course credit. If they do so they may take only 1.0 additional course credits in Weekend College for winter trimester. It is the policy ofAugsburg College not to 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 admissions policies, educational programs, activities and employment practices. Options International Interim-Students are invited to be part of one of the 25 international Interim courses offered by the Upper Midwest Association for Intercultural Education (UMAIE). These course opportunities are listed near the end of this catalog. Internships deadline-Friday, December 12. January Interim internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an internship must meet departmental requirements and present a signed internship learning agreement plan to the Internship Office (Murphy Place, Rm. 8) no later than the last day of fall classes (Friday, December 12). The learning agreement forms are available in the same office. Internships during Interim must involve full-time work placements for approximately four weeks. Assistance for planning your internship is available in the Internship and Cooperative Education'Office. Independent studylresearch or directed study-Students may elect a program of independent study (Upper Division 499) or directed study (Lower Division 299) for Interim. Faculty members are strongly discouraged from accepting responsibility for more than one independent study per Interim. Students choosing to pursue independent or directed study must: 1. Meet departmental requirements 2. Present to the Registrar a copy of the proposed study plan approved by the supervising faculty member and the directedlindependent study registration form. These forms must be submitted by December 1. Appropriate study proposal and registration forms can be obtained in the Registrar's Office. Interims at other schools-Augsburg students may enroll at any other 4-1-4 institution that offers a reciprocal Interim arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim programs can be consulted in the Registrar's Office. Registration for Interims at the other ACTC colleges will be at Augsburg during the regular registration period. Most courses taught during the Interim at other 4- 1-4 schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but may not necessarily be accepted as meeting Augsburg's genera1 education requirements. Visiting Students Augsburg College welcomes students from other 4-1-4 schools for the January Interim without tuition charges, provided the student's home institution agrees not to charge tuition to Augsburg students for the January term. The waiver of tuition does not include special fees, housing or board costs. Other students will be charged $1,497 for the Interim course. Students interested in registering for an Augsburg Interim should write to the Registrar's Office for application forms or use the forms provided by the Interim office at their own school. There is an application processing fee of $10. Students are welcome to stay on campus but are not required to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be made to the Residence Life Office. It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor visiting students may register for 199,299,399 or 499 courses. Interim Calendar 1998 November 17 to December 5 . .........

It assumes that before one can evaluate a moral or societal issue of a scientific nature one at least must be able to understand the science involved. Anything less is an impression rather than an informed decision. As we develop scientific concepts we will at the same time relate them to an abundance of current issues. We live in a world of pesticides, fertilizers, plastics, birth control, food abundance and food shortage, food additives and processing and synthesis, organically and non-organically grown food, chemical dependency, licit and illicit drugs, the energy crisis and the debates about sources of energy, the greenhouse effect and nuclear waste storage, pollution, genetic engineering and much more. Many of these problems are chemical in nature. Thus, in learning about chemistry, via lecture and in-class discussion, we can begin to understand ourselves, our society, our world and even some of the universe. The grade for the course is based on a percentage of the total score of total points on the daily quizzes.

Prerequisite: ECO 112 or ECO 113 preferred Maximum Enrollment: 25 Time: I Room: Old Main 13 Personal Economics EGO 495-1 Instructor: Satya Gupta This course will examine, understand and analyze three aspects of quality life-worldly assets, physical health and the self. Quality life is defined by many people in terms of the amount of money one has. The more money one has, the more command on commodities one can enjoy. We work hard most of our lives to fulfill our dreams of having a large home, fancy car, boat, vacation home, education for our children and enjoyable retirement. We plan a great deal for all these dreams. It is surprising that we plan 30 or 40 years from now. It is also true that at some point in life one asks oneself "Who am I really?" and "What am I here for?" In this third component of the course we shall critically reflect on our values, ethics and self-understanding. Knowledge of the self leads us to a higher plane of thinking and behaving. Thus, we shall try to construct a well-balanced portfolio of quality life. Students will find the course very interesting, thought provoking and challenging. Grades will be based on three quizzes, one paper and discussions in class.

The class will balance two related goals: first, to experience and talk about as many contemporary Twin Cities cultural happenings as is practicable (we will search out and encounter the most exciting, controversial and significant programs in theater, dance, gallery exhibition, music and film); second, to examine critical methods of observation and reception of art and consider ways in which writers can enhance the public's understanding and interaction with artistic culture. Students will keep a critic's journal, write four short papers and take a final exam. Students registering under English 482 will have to develop a 10 page critical project in conjunction with one art event that occurs during the course's span. To register, students must have successfully completed English 111, must have the willingness, the money and the time to attend events and to transport themselves to various cultural locations throughout the Twin Cities.

How do we attempt to secure that understanding? Why is history biased? Can there be history without bias? Should history have entertainment as a goal? These questions, and others, form the basis for an inquiry into the writing of history and the portrayal of historical characters, events and themes depicted in the cinema. Filmmakers have presented history in ways ranging from the mundane to the sublime. In this course we will view selected films and through readings, lectures and discussions examine some of the successes and failures of "History by Hollywood."

' , .W .I Science and Religion HON 401-1 lnstructor: Mark Engebretson For some in our society science is the driving engine of a better, more secure life and the basis for a philosophy of life. For others, science and its associated technologies, along with its invitation to become a global world view, constitute a grave threat. This course will address these matters in two ways. First, it will begin with a historical overview of the relations between science and the Christian faith, emphasizing three periods: the origins of the Christian faith, the development of "modern" science and mechanistic philosophy, and the reevaluation of science and nature in the twentieth century. Second, it will study systematically the world views of science and religion to see how they compare. Class time will be divided among lectures, discussions, small group tutorials and an extended simulation exercise in developing a space colony. Course evaluation will be based on two short exams, participation in small group tutorials based on assigned readings, a group project presentation and a major synthesis paper based on the group project and course materials.

What do all languages have in common despite their obvious differences? How can learning a foreign language be so frustrating for adults, while young children learning their native language seem to be having fun? Questions such as these have fascinated people throughout history, and recent developments in linguistics have begun to provide some credible answers. The purpose of this course is to survey the most remarkable findings in this area and engage in some principled speculation as to what they mean. This course is open to all students with a healthy curiosity about language. No other prerequisite. There will be two tests and a short paper for class presentation.

What's the shortest route between two cities using scheduled flights? The term "discrete" refers to separate, distinct objects such as the whole numbers. Kenneth Rosen, a mathematician at Bell Labs, in the introduction to his text Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications, explains that ... discrete mathematics is used whenever objects are counted, when relationships between finite sets are studied and when processes involving a finite number of steps are analyzed. A key reason for the growth in the importance of discrete mathematics is that information is stored and manipulated by computing machines in a discrete fashion. The course is a rigorous introduction to discrete mathematics including topics such as sets, logic,,functions, recursions, combinatorics, elementary probability theory and graph theory (as in networks). Algorithmic thinking and mathematical reasoning is emphasized throughout the course. This course will be a useful and interesting complement to calculus and continuous mathematics. The course is intended for students pursuing a mathematics major or a computer science major with a mathematics minor. Students are expected to be at least a little familiar with theoretical mathematics and proof. No specific computer experience is expected. Evaluation is based on three examinations and a small portfolio of homework problems. Please contact Su Dorke for further information.

Faculty in Weekend College are full-time Augsburg professors as well as adjunct professionals from the work world. The Weekend College student body is involved in student government, and Weekend College students participate in academic and extracurricular activities such as the student newspaper, travel seminars, and the Weekend College Commission. Augsburg Weekend College continues to develop to meet the changing needs of the adult and nontraditional student of today. PURPOSE Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to adults who desire college experience but who work or have other commitments during the week. It is a means by which men and women may earn a baccalaureate degree, gain skills for professional advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the liberal arts. MISSION OF THE COLLEGE Students who graduate from Augsburg are well prepared to make a difference in the world. They stand as testaments to the College motto, "Education for Service," and to the Mission of the College: To nurture future leaders of sewice in the world by providing high quality educational opportunities which are based in the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community. THEADULTAS LEARNER A COMMUNITYOF LEARNERS Augsburg Weekend College is designed to meet the needs and preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the assumption that the men and women who enroll in Weekend College will be mature, self-disciplined and well-motivated adult learners who seek a balance of classroom experience and individualized study. Each course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated on-campus study separated by time for independent study and class preparation. To accommodate this format for learning, classes generally meet on alternate weekends for three and one-half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon or Sunday afternoon. Each course selected by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods. Laboratory sections or additional class hours may be scheduled during the week. Weekend College students may take from one to four courses each term. Essential to the goals of Augsburg's Weekend College is participation in a community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the student is active in a stable community that provides opportunity and encouragement for involvement 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 the Christensen Center, to take the opportunity of having shared meals and coffee breaks, to participate in optional lunch-time seminars, and to attend other college activities such as music and dramatic presentations and athletic events. FACULTY The heart of any educational institution is its faculty and Augsburg College is particularly proud of the excellence and commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold the doctorate or other terminal degree and all consider their teaching to be the focus of their activity. Faculty are involved in social, professional and a variety of research activities, but see these activities as supporting their teaching. They are actively involved in an exciting faculty development program which introduces them to current thought in many fields but especially in teaching techniques and theories. Augsburg's size and small classes encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and students. Faculty act as academic advisers and participate regularly in campus activities. History Augsburg College and Seminary was founded in 1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. In 1963, the name officially became Augsburg College when the Seminary left campus as part of the Lutheran Free Church merger with the American Lutheran Church. Location Augsburg's 23-acre campus is in the heart of the Twin Cities metropolitan area, only blocks from downtown Minneapolis and the intersection of Interstate Highways 94 and 35W. Adjacent to the campus are the Riverside E d u c a t i o n a l P r o g r a m L 4 Medical Center, the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota and the Mississippi River parkways. Campus Augsburg's campus consists of 15 major buildings which include student housing towers, the College Center, main academic and administrative halls, the Library, Music Hall and the Foss Center for Worship, Drama and Communication. Accessibility We have made a major effort to become one of the most accessible campuses in the region. Our skyway-tunnel system lets you reach any of 10 major buildings without going outside. In addition to building changes, we have a student-run program to increase awareness and provide extra help for students with disabilities. Church Affiliation Augsburg is a college of The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Although a strong plurality of students are Lutheran, 20 percent represent other Protestant denominations and 21 percent represent the Roman Catholic Church. Several other affiliations are represented among students and faculty.

If all transfer work has been taken at a two-year college, a maximum of 17 Augsburg courses, or 96 quarter credits, will be accepted toward the minimum of 33 Augsburg course credits required for the baccalaureate degree. Transfer Credit Evaluations An evaluation of transfer credit is completed by the Registrar upon admission for each degree-seeking student who is transferring previous college work. This evaluation indicates which of the student's courses have been accepted for transfer credit at Augsburg College, and how many course credits the student has earned in transfer. The Registrar also determines which transfer courses may be used to fulfill general education requirements, and may request that the student provide course descriptions, syllabi or other information to assist in this determination. For an evaluation of transfer courses toward major, minor or licensure requirements, the student should consult the appropriate department chair. Augsburg graduates and students who have not attended Weekend College for more than one academic year (three trimesters) must apply for readmission through the Registrar's Office.

All degree and course requirements must be completed and verified in the Registrar's Office prior to the anticipated date of graduation (there may be no incomplete courses or open courses on the academic record). 1 II I n f o r m a t i o n . (or 2.5 if receiving a Minnesota State Student Grant). REGISTRATION Registration consists of two parts: Scheduling (choosing classes) - A student reserves a space in classes for each trimester by completing a schedule form. Scheduling can be done in advance of payment. Payment (confirmation 01 schedule) - A student who has scheduled courses must then confirm that schedule by paying. Dates and deadlines for scheduling and payment are listed in the Weekend College Catalog Supplement. SOME IMPORTANT POINTS ON REGISTRATION: A student must be registered for a course in order to receive course credit for it. A student in Weekend College is considered fulltime if he or she registers for two courses per trimester Students are responsible for obtaining registration materials from the Weekend College Office. A student who has not paid or made partial payment prior to the first day of classes is not registered for their course(s). The student may register and confirm the first class weekend, but late fees will apply and their space in the course(s) will not be held. CROSSOVERPOLICY It is expected that Weekend College students complete their degree requirements in the Weekend College schedule; however, students may take a course in the day schedule as a crossover. A Weekend College student wishing to attend a day schedule course, or a day student wishing to attend a course in Weekend College, must schedule at the Office of the Registrar. Students taking courses in both the day program and Weekend College program schedules which total three or more courses on any given date will be charged comprehensive day program tuition. A Weekend College student taking one day schedule course and who has fewer than three total courses will be charged the current part-time tuition for day school. Students will also follow these guidelines: Students may cross over for one full course credit per term. The course selected must have space available. Weekend College students may not cross over to attend ACTC (Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities) courses, except when required by the major to do so. Courses cross-listed in the Weekend College schedule and the day schedule are not subject to cross over policy. Contact the Office of the Registrar for more information on the crossover policy. WITHDRAWING FROM COURSES Students may drop (also referred to as canceling or withdrawing) a particular course by completing a Cancel/Add/Change of Registration form at the Office of the Registrar before the deadline (published in the Weekend College Catalog Supplement). Dropping a class will result in a " W for withdrawal on an official academic record. Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are registered because this may result in a failing grade on their official academic record. The refund schedule is listed on page 14. Note: A student may withdraw after the refund schedule has expired. WITHDRAWAL FROM COLLEGE Students who do not intend to continue at Augsburg must file a Withdrawal from College form at the Office of the Registrar. This is not necessary if the student is taking a term off; however, Weekend College students who do not attend courses for three consecutive trimesters (excluding summer) are considered inactive and must file an Application for Re-admission form with the Office of the Registrar in order to resume their academic program. Students are responsible for keeping the Office of the Registrar informed of their mailing address. SYLLABUS A syllabus is a course outline written by the instructor which may include a course description and objectives, required text(s), course schedule, grading criteria and assignments. A syllabus is especially important in Weekend College because it advises the student of any assignment due the first class weekend. Students are responsible for picking up the course syllabus at the times published in The Weekender, the Weekend College informational publication. EVALUATIONAND GRADING Student achievement in courses is measured primarily by final examinations. Shorter tests, written papers, oral reports and other types of evaluation also are used. Most courses are offered with grading options - traditional grading on a 4.0 scale or the Pass/No Credit system, in which P means a grade of 2.0 or better and N means no credit and a grade of less than 2.0. Students who choose the P/N option are cautioned: In order to receive a grade of P, a student must achieve at least a grade of 2.0. Some graduate and professional schools do not look favorably on a large number of P-graded courses, or rank each as a "C". P-graded courses do not count toward the requirement that 14 traditionally graded course credits be earned at Augsburg in order to be considered for graduation with distinction. Transfer students should be especially aware of this requirement. See P/N limitations under Graduation Requirements on page 28. Note: Certain courses are offered on one grading system only (e.g., Lifetime Sports are graded P/N only). In courses where there is a choice, students will be graded on the traditional system unless they indicate on their registration that they wish to use the P/N grading option. Any changes in choice of grading system must be made according to dates published each term. A fee is charged for any changes made after the published deadline for dropping without record notation. I n f o r m a t i o n . NUMERIC GRADES Numeric grades are used with these definitions: 4.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence 3.0 Achieves above basic course standards 2.5 2.0 Meets basic standards for the course 1.0 Performance below basic course standards 0.5 0.0 Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course) Grades of P (Pass) or N (No credit) are not computed in the grade point average. An incomplete grade (I) may be given only in the case of extreme emergency. To receive an incomplete grade, a student must receive permission of the instructor, and must file a form with the Registrar's Office stating the reasons for the request, the work required to complete the course, the plan and date for completing the work, and comments from the instructor. The necessary work must be completed in enough time to allow evaluation of the work by the instructor and filing of a grade before the final day of the following trimester. If the work is not completed by that date, the grade for the course becomes a 0.0. Internships, Indepzndent Studies and Directed Studies may sometimes last longer than one term. When this is the case, they must be completed by the grading deadlines within one year from the beginning of the first term of registration. A grade of X is given by the instructor to indicate that the study is extended. It is expected that students given X extensions will continue to communicate with their instructors and demonstrate that satisfactory progress is being maintained. A final grade will be issued at the end of the term in which the work is completed and evaluated (but not longer than one year). An instructor has the option of not giving an X where satisfactory progress is not demonstrated. A course in which a grade of 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or N has been received may be repeated for credit. Courses in which higher grades have been earned may not be repeated for credit and a grade, but may be audited. All courses taken and grades earned each term remain on the academic record. Only the credits and grades earned the second time, for legitimately repeated courses, are counted toward graduation and in the grade point average. AUDITINGCOURSES Students who wish to take courses without credit or grade may do so by registering for Audit (V). The charge for auditing is listed in the current year's Weekend College Catalog Supplement. The signature of the instructor is required to register an audit. Students who audit a course should confer with the instructor two weeks prior to the beginning of the term to determine expectations, attendance and any other requirements. If expectations have been met, the course will be listed on the transcript as having been audited. If expectations have not been met, the course will be listed with a grade of W (Withdrawn). Courses for which transfer credit has been awarded may not be repeated for credit at Augsburg. This includes courses which are substantially similar despite different titles or emphases. GRADEPOINTAVERAGE The grade point average (GPA) is based on final grades for all work at Augsburg. It does not include credit and grade points for work transferred from other colleges. Courses taken on the P/N grading option are recorded, but not computed in the GPA. The formula for computing the GPA is: GPA = Total grade points divided by number of course credits attempted." * Using traditionally graded course credits only. CLASSIFICATION Student classifications are updated in August and at the end of the Fall Trimester. Sophomores - Seven course credits completed. Juniors - 16 course credits completed. Seniors -24 course credits completed. ACADEMIC PROGRESS, ~ROBAT~O AND N DISMISSAL The College requires that students maintain the following cumulative grade point averages (GPA): Freshman - A student who has taken fewer than seven credits with a cumulative GPA of 1.6 or higher Sophomore - A student who has taken fewer than 16 credits with a cumulative GPA of 1.7 or higher Junior - A student who has taken fewer than 24 credits with a cumulative GPA of 1.9 or higher Senior - A student who has taken 24 or more credits with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher. It should be noted that a minimum GPA of 2.0 is required for graduation with certain majors requiring a higher minimum GPA. Students whose academic achievement falls below these guidelines will either be placed on scholastic probation at the end of the term, will be continued on probation, or will be dismissed from the College. In addition, a freshman who receives two zero grades or a sophomore who receives three zero grades will be considered for probation or dismissal. However, dismissal from the College is not automatic. Each case is reviewed by the Committee on Student Standing. Evidence of the student's commitment to academic progress is the major consideration in deciding whether or not to dismiss a student. Those on probation who voluntarily withdraw from 'the College, as well as those who are dismissed, must have special permission to re-enroll. Students may be removed from probation when the cumulative GPA reaches the minimum level stated above. Students placed on probation as freshmen for having earned two zero grades may be removed from probation if their classification changes to sophomore, if they have not earned additional zero grades, and if their cumulative GPA reaches 1.7. Students placed on probation as sophomores for having earned three zero grades may be removed from probation if their classification changes to junior and their cumulative GPA reaches 1.9. The College reserves the right to dismiss any student who does not meet the guidelines stated above. Once a student is dismissed, he or she may appeal the decision within 10 days to the Committee on Student Standing. DEAN'S LIST The Dean's List is compiled after each trimester, listing students whose grade point average for a trimester is 3.5 or better. Students must be full-time (a minimum two full course credits for a Weekend College student), graded on the traditional grading system, with no incompletes in courses offered for credit. If permission is given by the student, an announcement is sent to the hometown newspaper of each student on the Dean's List. ASSESSMENT OF PREVIOUS LEARNING (APL) PROGRAM Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in many life situations. Some of this learning may be appropriate for credit recognition within the disciplines that compose the academic program of a liberal arts college. The Assessment of Previous Learning (APL) program at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous learning, other than that which is transferred from another accredited institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward the completion of a baccalaureate degree. Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two essential criteria: 1) it is relevant to course work in a field of study within the Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and 2) it can be objectively demonstrated either by comprehensive examination or committee evaluation. The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which students may have their previous learning assessed for credit recognition. The following is a brief description of each of these means of assessment: The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) This is a series of standardized tests which have been developed by the College Board and are offered to students for a small fee at regional testing centers. (The regional testing center for this area is the University of Minnesota.) Students who score at or above the 65th percentile on a subject examination may receive academic credit for that subject at Augsburg College. Additional information about CLEP tests is available from the Office of the Registrar. Departmental Comprehensive Exams These are available for students to use in obtaining credit for previous learning if the following conditions are met: There is a departmental instrument available for the subject area in question. There is a faculty member designated by the department to administer the exam. The Registrar approves the student's request to take the exam. Credit for departmental exams is available on a passlno credit basis only, and there is a charge per exam of one-half of tuition for a full course credit. The Portfolio Assessment Program This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty team completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the student. The faculty team is composed of two faculty members from fields of study directly related to the student's previous learning. Students who wish to prepare a portfolio of previous learning for credit assessment should consult the Off

It is always a pleasure to introduce the Augsburg experience to prospective students and to welcome new and returning students. Some people refer to us as "the small town campus in the heart of the city." That phrase does indeed capture our character and our strength as a college. Augsburg is an affordable, quality liberal arts college of the church, a place where people know and care about you. Here you can also gain "real world" experience to complement your education - before you enter the workplace for the first time. The College continues to grow and build on its long tradition of academic excellence. I invite you to become a part of the Augsburg experience by joining this caring and diverse community of learners and teachers. I look forward to meeting you on campus. Sincerely, Charles S.

A \ t Augsburg College, we believe that the college experience should be a time of exploration, of discovery, of new experiences and new possibilities. We also believe that a liberal arts education is your best preparation for living in the fastpaced, changing and complex world of today and tomorrow. Upon graduation, you will be able to demonstrate not only the mastery of a major field of study, but also the ability to think critically, solve problems and communicate effectively. Select from 50 majors Augsburg offers more than 50 majors or you can create your own major either on campus or through the Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities (ACTC). (See page 49 for a complete list of majors and minors.) This five-college consortium allows students to take courses on other campuses without charge. The ACTC includes Augsburg College, Harnline University, Macalester College, the University of St. Thomas, and the College of St. Catherine. We emphasize values, perspectives, experience and skills The heart of an Augsburg education is the Augsburg Curriculum - the College's general education program that structures your liberal arts studies through challenging and thought-provoking courses that require students to consider important issues and examine values questions. These liberal arts perspectives include western heritage, intercultural awareness, human identity, the social world, Christian faith, the city, aesthetics and the natural world. At the same time, courses across all disciplines stress the skills that will serve you for a lifetime - writing, speaking, critical t h d u n g and quantitative reasoning, to name a few. Thanks to Augsburg's prime location in the heart of a thriving metropolitan area, many courses are able to offer rich and varied learning opportunities in real-life situations through academic internships, experiential education, volunteer community service and cultural enrichment. In a sense, the resources of the Twin Cities are an extended campus for Augsburg students. Students who graduate from Augsburg are well prepared to make a difference in the world. They stand as testaments to the College motto, "Education for Service," and to the Mission of the College: To nurture leaders in service to the world by providing high quality educational opportunities which are based in the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian Church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community. A College of the Church Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September, 1869, in Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The first seminarians were enrolled in 1874, and the first graduation was in 1879. l o About Augsburg - Early Leaders Establish a Direction The Focus Changed August Weenaas was Augsburg's first president (1869-1876). This attitude began to change after World War I. In 1911, Georg Sverdrup, Jr., became president. He worked to develop college departments with an appeal to a broader range of students than just those intending to be ministers. Augsburg admitted women in 1922 under the leadership of Gerda Mortensen, Dean of Women. She spent the next 52 years at the College as a teacher and administrator. Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway - Sven Oftedal and Georg Sverdrup. These three men clearly articulated the direction of Augsburg: to educate Norwegian Lutherans to minister to immigrants and to provide such "college" studies that would prepare students for theological study. In 1874 they proposed a three part plan: first, train ministerial candidates; second, prepare future theological students; and third, educate the farmer, worker and businessman. The statement stressed that a good education is also practical. Augsburg's next two presidents also emphatically rejected ivory tower concepts of education. This commitment to church and community has been Augsburg's theme for over one hundred years. Education for Service Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist" college, Georg Sverdrup, Augsburg's second president (1876-1907),required students to get pre-ministerial experience in city congregations. Student involvement in the community gave early expression to the concept of Augsburg's motto, "Education for Service." In the 1890s, Augsburg leaders formed the Friends of Augsburg, later called the Lutheran Free Church. The church was a group of independent congregations committed to congregational autonomy and personal Christianity. This change made Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the small Lutheran body. But the college division was still important primarily as an attachment to the s ~ m i n a ~ . The College's mission assumed a double character - ministerial preparation together with a more general education for life in society. In 1937, Augsburg elected Bernhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly teacher, to be president (19381962).His involvement in ecumenical and civic circles made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city life. After World War 11, Augsburg leaders made vigorous efforts to expand and improve academic offerings. Now the College was a larger part of the institution than the seminary, and received the most attention. Accreditation for the College Augsburg added departments essential to a liberal arts college, offering a modem college program based on general education requirements and elective majors. With curriculum change came a long effort to become accredited. The College reached accreditation in 1954, although many alumni had entered graduate schools and teaching positions long before that time. A study in 1962 defined the College's mission as serving the good of society first and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church second. The Seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther Serninarv) in St. Paul in 1963. About Auasbura l1 A College in the City President Oscar A. Anderson (19631980) continued Augsburg's emphasis on involvement with the city. He wanted to reach out to nontraditional student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all people. During his years of leadership the College became a vital and integral part of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg added the Music Hall, Mortensen Tower, Umess Tower, the Christensen Center, Ice Arena and Murphy Place. Dr. Charles S. Anderson has led the College since 1980. He guides Augsburg's commitment to liberal arts education, spiritual growth and freedom, diversity in enrollment and programs and a curriculum that draws on the resources of the city as extensions of campus and classroom. Augsburg continues to grow under his leadership. Some of the accomplishments during his tenure include instituting three graduate degree programs, hosting national and international figures at College-sponsored forums and events, increased accessibility, and the addition of the Foss Center for Worship, Drama and Communication and the Oscar Anderson Residence Hall. Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the founders who believed: An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community and church; Education should have a solid liberal arts core with a practical dimension in order to send out productive, creative and successful citizens; The city -with all its excitement, challenges and diversity - is an unequaled learning laboratory for Augsburg students. Augsburg is a quality liberal arts institution set in the heart of a great metropolitan center. There are now more than 13,000 Augsburg alumni. In a world that has changed much since those first days of the College, Augsburg still sends out graduates who make a difference where they live and work. In addition to a traditional undergraduate liberal arts and sciences "day" program, Augsburg offers a Weekend College program for nontraditional students and master's degree programs in social work, leadership and education-leadership.

Whether students are residents or commuters, the climate for learning and living at Augsburg will add dimension to their education. As a college of the church, we are concerned about spiritual as well as academic and social growth. Our concern for spiritual growth is evident in the opportunities we encourage and provide for students to explore their own faith. Because our campus is comprised of individuals from many different religious and cultural backgrounds, our worship life is characterized by a similar diversity and richness of tradition. Bible studies, growth groups, outreach teams and community outreach opportunities, retreats, peace and justice forums, concerts and gatherings are examples of the wide variety of activities on campus. This ministry finds its most visible expression in chapel worship where students, faculty and staff gather each day to give thanks and hear the Gospel proclaimed by a number of speakers and musicians. Each Wednesday night students gather for Holy Communion. On Sundays, Trinity Lutheran worship services are held on campus, with many other churches within walking distance. We seek to develop a free and open environment where people are encouraged to use and discover the gfts and sense of call and vocation that God has given them. As a college of the church, we encourage students to form values guided by our Christian heritage, which will be the basis for the kind and quality of life that reaches beyond their years at Augsburg. The College Pastor and Campus Ministry staff have offices in the Foss, Lobeck, Miles Center for Worship, Drama and Communication and are available for spiritual guidance, counseling, support or information. Through student government students secure a closer relationship with and better understanding of the administration and faculty, and provide input into the decision-making process at Augsburg. Student government also sponsors and directs student activities, protects student rights and provides the means for discussions and action on all issues pertaining to student life at Augsburg. Student government is organized into the executive branch, the legislative branch and the judicial branch. Elections are held in the spring for the next year. Freshmen elect their representatives in the fall of their first year. Many kinds of involvement are possible -program planning, writing, editing or service opportunities. If you want to get involved, contact the president or vice president of the Student Body in their offices in the lower level of the Christensen Center. The Student Activities program creates opportunities for students to enhance their leadership skills through active involvement in developing events, activities and organizations which serve the student community. Hundreds of major programming Student Life efforts and targeted activities for specific student interests are generated through these efforts and make Augsburg a dynamic and enjoyable interactive environment. Throughout the year, a variety of social and cultural activities take place on campus as well as in the Twin Cities. These activities include dances, films, theme events, name entertainment and visiting personalities in various fields. The Christensen Center is the focus of leisure-time activity on campus. Cooper's Attic (the gameroom and student lounge) is a popular hangout located in the lower level. Many of the clubs that unite classroom and non-classroom related interests meet here. Student offices in this area include the College newspaper, the Augsburg Echo; the yearbook, The Augsburgian; Student Government and the Augsburg Student Activities Council.

The College follows a 4- 1-4 calendar, with Fall and Spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a four-week January Interim. Interim is intended to be a time for both students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and learning and to investigate questions and topics in places and ways not possible during the regular term. Since one Interim course equals a full-time load, students should plan to spend the sanie amount of time in class and preparing for class as they would for a four-course load during Fall or Spring semesters. Students can register for only one course credit during Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who chooses not to enroll in an Interim course. It is expected that students will attend every class period; however, each instructor will establish the precise attendance policy for hislher course. Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale. Students generally have the option to register on a PassINo Credit basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on the PIN system; this is indicated in the course description. Some courses are offered for either upper or lower division credit. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and the student must select which is most appropriate for their needs. Students registering for upper division credit should anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading standard. Some courses, especially courses with travel requirements, have additional fees associated with them. These fees, although intended to be accurate, may change and students should check with the instructor to verify the final costs. To graduate, a student under the 34 course Liberal Arts Perspective requirements is required to complete two Interim courses, but three Interim courses may count toward graduation. For any student entering after January 1993, a maximum of two Interim course credits may be counted toward the 33 total course credits required for graduation. The number of required Interim courses is adjusted for transfer students. Transfer students should refer to their transfer credit evaluation form, or consult the Registrar. Additional Interim credits which can count toward the 33 course credits required may be taken by students who repeat a course for credit in which a grade below 2.0 was earned, or who need to make up for a regular term in which they failed or withdrew from a course. Additional Interim courses not counted toward the 33 course credits required may be used to fulfill other degree requirements. That is, no more than two Interim course credits may be taken for credit toward 33, but additional Interim courses may be used to fulfill major, minor or general education requirements. Day School students (3.0 credits or more for Fall) can take a total of 1.0 course credits. They may take two half credit classes. They may also take a lifetime sport (zero credit). The lifetime sport is at no additional charge if they are full-time (Fall term). If less than full-time they will be charged. Weekend students can take 1.0 course credits in Interim as a cross registration, but will be charged Day School tuition ($1,420.00) per course credit. If they do so they may take only 1.0 additional course credits in Weekend College for Winter Trimester. It is the policy ofAugsburg College not to discriminate on the basis of race, creed, notional or etlirtic origin, age, niarital status, sex or handicap as required by Title IX ofthe 1972 Educotiotial Atnetidmenis or Section 504 ofthe Rehnbiliiation Act 011973, as otiietided, it1 its adn~issionspolicies, educotiotlol programs, activities and eniploynietrt practices. International Interim - Students are invited to be part of one of the 24 international Interim courses offered by the Upper Midwest Association for Intercultural Education (UMAIE). These course opportunities are listed near the end of this catalog. Internships deadline - Friday, December 13. January Interim internships must be planned in advance. Students electing an internship must meet departmental requirements and present a signed internship learning agreement plan to the Internship Office (Murphy Place, Rm. 8) no later than the last day of Fall classes (Friday, December 13). The Learning Agreement forms are available in the same office. Internships during Interim must involve full-time work placements for approximately four weeks. Assistance for planning your internship is available in the Internship and Cooperative Education Office. Independent StudylResearch or Directed Study - Students may elect a program of independent study (upper division 499) or directed study (lower division 299) for Interim. Faculty members are strongly discouraged from accepting responsibility for more than one independent study per Interim. Students choosing to pursue independent or directed study must: 1. Meet departmental requirements. 2. Present to the Registrar a copy of the proposed study plan approved by the supervising faculty member and the directedlindependent study registration form. These forms must be submitted by December 1. Appropriate study proposal and registration forms can be obtained in the Registrar's Office. Interims at Other Schools - Augsburg students may enroll at any other 4-1-4 institution which offers a reciprocal Interim arrangement. Catalogs of these Interim programs can be consulted in the Registrar's Office. Registration for Interims at the other ACTC colleges will be at Augsburg during the regular registration period. Most courses taught during the Interim at other 4-1-4 schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but may not necessarily be accepted as meeting Augsburg's general education requirements. This qualification particularly affects courses offered in religion. Augsburg College welcomes students from other 4- 1-4 schools for the January Interim without tuition charges, provided the student's home institution agrees not to charge tuition to Augsburg students for the January term. The waiver of tuition does not include special fees, housing or board costs. Other students will be charged $1,420 for the Interim course. Students interested in registering for an Augsburg Interim should write to the Registrar's Office for application forms o r use the forms provided by the Interim office at their own school. There is an application processing fee of $10. Students are welcome to stay on campus but are not required to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be made to the Residence Life Office. It should be noted that neither ACTC exchange students nor visiting students may register for 199,299,399 or 499 courses.

Liberal Arts Perspeclive: Aesthelics Graduation Skill Requirement: Speaking Maximum Enrollmenl: 15 BIO 145-1 Instructor Bill Capman We will use a few historically, economically, and medically important plants to study some of the ways in which humans and plants interact, biologically and otherwise. Plants are not only at the bottom of our food chain but also play a part in non-food aspects of our lives, either directly (e.g. medicines, fibers, dyes, etc.) or indirectly (e.g. how food crises have influenced human migrations). We will study the uses, biology, natural history and classification of several important plants. Evaluation will be based on three or four forty-minute exams, several quizzes, and an oral presentation. Liberal Arts Perspective: Natural World 2 Maximum Enrollmenl: 20 Time: I1 Room: Science 205 RESPONDING TO THE CHALLENGE OF JAPAN BUS 368-1 Instructor Steven LaFave An examination of current Japanese business practices using a cultural perspective. A multimedia approach will be employed involving film, television documentaries, radio speeches, and readings from current periodicals in addition to text materials. A seminar model will be used, with substantial participation expected on the part of the students. Students will be evaluated based on a paper, two 20-minute sessions of seminar leadership, class participation, and a midterm and a final examination. This class should be of interest to anyone majoring or minoring in International Business or any field of Business Administration, as well as anyone interested in Japan. Students who cannot attend every class should not enroll in this course. Prerequisite: Junior standing or consent of instructor Liberal Arts Perspective: Intercultural Awareness Maximum Enrollment: 20 Time: I Room: Music 22 BUS 495-1 Instructor: Magdalena Paleczny-Zapp The transition from centrally-planned economies to market systems currently taking place in Russia, Central and Eastern Europe represents one of the most important changes of the post-Cold War era. These changes carry major implications for global trade and international business and certainly for U.S. bilateral interest in this region. This course will provide an understanding of these changes and will identify the opportunities and most effective ways of doing business and investing in Russia, Central and Eastern Europe. Prerequisite: ECO 112 Maximum Enrollment: 15 Time: I - M, W Th Room: Memorial 323 CHM 100-1 Instructor: Arlin Gyberg This course is developed in the perspective of a person living in a modern, high technology society such as the United States. It assumes that before one can evaluate a moral or societal issue of a scientific nature one at the least must be able to understand the science involved. Anything less is an impression rather than an informed decision. As we develop scientific concepts we will at the same time relate them to an abundance of current issues. We live in a world of pesticides, fertilizers, plastics, birth control, food abundance and food shortage, food additives and processing and synthesis, organically and non-organically grown food, chemical dependency, licit and illicit drugs, the energy crisis and the debates about sources of energy, the greenhouse effect and nuclear waste storage, pollution, genetic engineering and much more. Many of these problems are chemical in nature. Thus, in learning about chemistry, via lecture and in-class discussion, we can be helped to understand ourselves, our society, our world and even some of the universe. The grade for the course is based on a percentage of the total score for total points on the daily quizzes. Prerequisite: Math Placement 2 Liberal Arts Perspective: Natural World 2 Maximum Enroilment: 30 Time: I Room: Science 315 FORTRAN CSC 270-1 Instructor: Noel Petit A study of the FORTRAN programming language for students with previous knowledge of computer programming. This course will expand a student's knowledge of programming and programming languages through presentation of the features of FORTRAN together with programming techniques for using those features. Students are expected to know how to do computer programming in some programming language (such as Pascal) before entering this course. This course will involve lectures and several programming assignments in FORTRAN. Evaluation will be based on the successful completion of assignments and examinations. Prerequisite: One course which includes programming Maximum Enrollmenl: 25 Time: I1 Room: Foss 42 1 CSC 495-1 Instructor: Charles Sheaffer This course is especially intended for students with no prior exposure to programming in particular or Computer Science in general. It will be a laboratory intensive, self-paced course using the Scheme programming language. We will introduce an alternative approach to some of the most important concepts of Computer Science including problem solving, simulation, object-oriented programming, functional programming, procedural and data abstraction, and program interpretation. Students with knowledge of programming will benefit from exposure to the alternative paradigm represented by the Scheme language and will acquire a concrete understanding of how these important concepts are actually implemented in real languages and machines. Graduation Skill Requirement: Critical Thinking Maximum Enrollment: 20 Time: I1 Room: Foss Center PO ECO 110-1 Instructor: Ed Sabella Study of economic implications of the many problems facing a metro-urban environment. Fundamental microeconomic tools introduced to facilitate discussion of various topics, e.g. health issues, discrimination, education, etc. Course does not apply toward an Economics, Business Administration or MIS major and does not apply toward an economics minor.

Liberal Arts Perspective: Cily or Social World 1 or 2 Maximum Enmllment 15 Time: I1 Room: Old Main 29 COMPUTER 5CIENCE/tCONOMICI DISCOVERY LEARN~NGIN THE WORLD OF KINDERGARTEN (0.5 CREDIT) EDE 375-1 Instructor: Gretchen lrvine The student will demonstrate knowledge of a developmental kindergarten philosophy through the study and utilization of a variety of techniques and resources for teaching kindergarten. Field work in a kindergarten classroom will occur during class meetings. Authentic assessment techniques will be utilized in class for student evaluation. This is a one-half credit course. *Note: This course can be taken along with Hunzan Relations, EDU 388-1. Prerequisite: PPST Maximum Enrollment: 25 Time: I Room: Library 1 EDS 495-1 Instructor: Mary Ann Bayless Why are some things easy for a person to learn while others seem harder? Why does the same task seem easier at one moment and more difficult just a few hours later? Why do some children struggle with seemingly simple assignments but then suddenly master them? Why do more people suffer with learning disabilities and weak short-term memory than ever before? Each of us wants to be an efficient and happy learner; but most often, no one has shown us how to be our own lifelong learning coaches. In the last decade, work in neuro-physiology has given us a whole new set of insights about how the various parts of the brain actually work to produce learning and high-level functioning. Educational kinesiologists have taken these insights and produced simple but effective ways to increase the learning comfort of each individual. This course will provide both the theory for each participant to understand herlhis own unique learning needs and the practice for becoming an efficient and joyful learner. We will study learning development, brainlmind function, and the nature of learning blocks. We will discuss the misuse of brain dominance theory and learn routines for overcoming learning blocks and integrating hemisphere functions. There will be two tests and two demonstrations required of each student, and upper-division students will have to do two reviews of relevant research. The course uses two paperback texts. Very useful for prospective teachers and parents. Maximum Enrollment: 20 Time: I Room: Science 205 lNTERNATIONAL EDUCATION EDU 353-1 Instructor: Rich Germundsen This seminar-style course presents an examination and comparison of selected Western and non-Western educational systems with special attention on Scandinavian and Central American models. The course also draws attention to our personal responsibilities to educate ourselves to be able to understand and participate in the emerging global society. There will be lectures, discussions, presentations by students and guest speakers. Student evaluation will be based on class presentations and investigative projects. International students are especially welcome to enroll. Liberal Arts Perspective: Social World 2 Maximum Enrollment: 15 Time: I Room: Library 17 EDU 388-1 lnstructoc Joseph Erickson l'his course is thc study of prcjudicc, discrimination nnd oplwcssion as i t alli.c~spcrsons of color, the hii~idiciippcci, limited English speakers and females.

As a garden, the city tames and shapes nature to provide an environment congenial to humanity. As a wilderness, the city suggests the lack of moral restraint and self-control. This course explores these themes in (mostly modern American) essays, short stories, plays, poetry and films. Taking its cue from Alfred Kazin's A Walker in the City,the course will include a service project and field trips in which we will explore some of the "gardens" and "wildernesses" of the Twin Cities. Course grades will be based on a journal, two short papers, class attendance and contributions to discussion. Preference given to freshmen.

Put more broadly, the years between the mid-1840s and the late 1870s saw questions about such fundamental principles as slavery and freedom resolved; others, however, continue to trouble us to this day. This course, then, offers a survey of the causes, issues and consequences of the nation's bloodiest conflict. Topics to be considered include slavery and anti-slavery, Manifest Destiny, the growing sectional conflict, the origins of the Republican Party, the clash of arms, the changing role of women, popular religion, the transition from slave to free labor in the South, and post-slavery race relations. The course will include lectures, discussions, a variety of primary and secondary readings, and films.

In the context of this volunteer experience, students have the opportunity to interact with human service professionals, clients and communities of diverse culturelethnic heritage and special concerns (age, socio-economic status, lifestyles, developmental/physical abilities, gender, etc.). The course is designed to help students learn about themselves in relation to a possible major or future career in the human services. The three-hour weekly seminar is devoted to discussions that assist students in integrating agency experiences and readings which explore the historical development of social welfare as an institution and the nature and value system of social work as a profession. Students will also examine and critique the manner in which social, economic and political structures impact diverse groups in society. Students will focus on their own responsibilities in society, as well as examine their personal value system in relation to special concerns, such as poverty and the "isms".

Catalog Supplement 1996 for MAL Program A Hon-thesis Option for Completion of the MAL Program (Plan B) In March 1996 the MAL program approved a Plan B alternative to provide a third choice for students completing their MAL degree. Plan B involves both a different number and configuration of course requirements than Plan A. (See below for details) The Thesis and the Leadership Application Project are described in the 1995-1997 catalog. The thesis and leadership application project are similar in approach and methodology. They differ principally in the degree of application. thesis, leadership application project, and g1an B are options available to all HAL atudents. ~h• The PLAN B Option: The Plan B option requires 11 courses. Plan B students must take: ML 580 Contemporary Theories of Leadership ML 510 Visions of Leadership ML 514 Research Methods. Plan B students will write two major papers: l'irst Paper: In ML 580 Contemporary Theories of Leadership students write one major paper(approximately 30 pages). This paper will fulfill one of required Plan B papers if a grade of 3.5 or batter is achieved. Students are required to give an oral presentation based on their major paper at the end of the semester. (If the grade achieved on this paper is less than 3.5 and the student has elected the Plan B option, the student will re- work the paper.*) *A readers' panel, selected by the MAL Advisory committee, will review the revised paper. Second Paper: one of two ways: The second major paper may be handled in 1) An Independent study ML 59·9 (1. 0 credit) taken with an Advisor. There will be a major paper(approximately 30-35 pages) required. The student must earn at least a grade of 3.5. . 2) Thesis Seminar ML 593-594 sequence (.5 er each-1.0 er total) and complete a major paper(approximately 30-35 pages). The second Plan B Paper will be reviewed by the readers' panel. The task of the readers' panel is to determine whether the paper is at the 3.5 level or better and to maintain consistent quality across differing project~ and subject areas. The second Plan B paper will be presented at an annual Colloquium held for students, faculty, alumni and invited guests. Students will present an Abstract (approximately 15 minutes) of their second plan B paper completed during a given academic year. The presentation is part of the requirement to complete the Plan B alternative. 1 I MAL Course Schedule 1996 -1997 (As of 2/96) Fall 1996 Time I ML 510 Visions of Leadership: Nelson Winter 1997 Time I ML 531 Dynamics of CbangePike & Morgan Spring 1997 Time I ML 596 Women and Leadership Noonan ML 520 Self Identity, Values & Personal Growth- Ferguson ML /EDU 514 Research Methods & Evaluation Erickson ML/EDU 594 Leadership Seminar II Swenson Music 4 ML 580: Colloquium on Contemporary Theories of Leadership : Endorf, Noonan, Swanson,McNeff,Mugge, Hanson ML 540 Political Leadership Morris & Noonan ML 510: Visions of Leadership Palosaari Time II ML/EDU 514 Research Methods/Evaluation Volker Time II ML 560 Developing a Perspective: Benson Time II ML 521 Methods of Critical Thought Crockett ML/EDU 593: Leadership Swenson ML 511 Creativity/ Problem-Solving Hesser IML 599 Ferrell, Multi-cultural Seminar I ML 530 Ethics in Communication: Nilsson Organizational Leadership Dyrud, Morris, Pike p Time I: Thursday, 6:00-7:30 pm & Saturday, 8:30 a.m. -12:00 noon Time II: Thursday, 8:00-9:30 pm & Saturdav. 1:00 - 4: 30 p.m. nn ~· .·· . .

While different in structure and purpose, most organizations seek leaders with the following qualities: a vision which is ethically and morally responsible, extending beyond immediate concerns; an understanding of how change occurs and affects the immediate environment; a sensitivity to the complex problems organizations face, and an ability to achieve solutions consistent with an organization's mission; the ability to motivate and inspire individuals and groups to work toward a common goal; and the ability to effectively represent the organization both internally and externally. The MAL program provides a means by which individuals may discover and refine these and other abilities fundamental to effective leadership. Accommodating the Full-Time Work Schedule Designed to meet the needs and preferences of working adults, the MAL program is based on the assumption that the students who enroll are career oriented, • • • ~ I . .. .,.• ·' • : ~ self-disciplined, and wellmotivated individuals, seeking a balance of classroom experience, group interaction, and individual study. Most courses are organized as seminars with opportunity for discussion and dialogue, and classes meet on alternate Saturdays for threeand-one-half hours and alternate Thursday evenings for one-andone-half hours. Community of Learners Essential to the goals of the MAL program is participation in a community of learners gathered together on the Augsburg campus. This community is enriched by the students with a variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate community interaction, students are encouraged to make use of the Augsburg library, computer labs, and Christensen Center. Students share meals and coffee breaks; participate in optional lunch time seminars; and attend music and dramatic presentations and athletic events. Individual Professional Development A major component of the MAL program is the professional. assessment. Given in the first year of study, the assessment can help students to identify leadership skills and preferred work and learning styles. Nationally recognized test instruments are used and based . .. on the results, students are encouraged to create personalized goals and plans to strengthen areas which may require further development. MAL students are encouraged to enroll in ML 500, Leadership Practicum. Students may enroll in this professional development series for six terms and upon completion of six Practica, receive a half-course credit to be used as an elective. Scheduled each term, Practica are designed to meet student needs in areas such as interpersonal communication, approaches to career change, coping with workplace issues, and other areas related to leadership and professional development. In consultation with the Director, the student may also apply to receive credit for attending seminars related to his or her employment as part of the Practicum course. ~,.. . . . .. ·" •• . ., ' ,, · .~I ,· . ......,., ... ,. ~ ,. ,. ; ' '·.· : . . .. • . ... _, .· .... ... ·.. ., .

To accomplish this, individuals aspiring to positions of leadership must possess three key attributes: a sense of vision, the ability to persuade, and the ability to direct action. Underlying these attributes is a broad range of abilities and awareness, outlined in the Leadership Development Model, that serve as specific outcomes for the MAL Program. Augsburg's model of leadership development is designed to assess, promote, enhance, and refine these capabilities within the individual.

Each course includes two or more liberal arts disciplines, encourages pursuit of the designated outcomes, and uses a variety of learning techniques appropriate to adult learners. Instructional techniques include case studies, debate, written and oral presentations, and group activity. These techniques, which have had demonstrated success in advanced courses, develop targeted leadership abilities and understanding. Students are encouraged to see abilities and understandings as crossdisciplinary and to see content areas as integrated. The very form of the program reflects the view that the world in which we operate is complex and that dealing with it successfully requires well- Core Courses (3.5 course credits) ....

See the MEL program bulletin for detailed descriptions of these courses. Thesis/Leadership Application Project At, or near, the completion of the course work for the MAL program, students are required to develop and carry out a study of some aspect of leadership or of a leadership-related topic.

Students have the option to do either a Thesis or Leadership Application Project for completion of the degree. The Thesis or Application Project should be seen as the culmination of the MAL program, offering participants the opportunity to investigate either some aspect of leadership in depth or explore the application of what has been studied. The distinction between these two options lies in their orientation. The Thesis will have a more theoretical orientation, while the Leadership Application Project will be based on a more practical application orientation. Students who do not complete their Thesis or Leadership Application Project while enrolled in ML 594 are required to pay a continuation fee during each subsequent term until the Thesis/Project is completed. . . \ .. • •.• ~URSE DESCRIPTIONS • ML 500 Leadership Practicum (.5 credit for 6 Practicum attended) Professional development workshops and seminars which span six terms.
