Show moreGENERAL INFORMATION 19 Counselling and Personnel Service PERSONNEL OFFICE Augsburg has recently inaugurated a gradually expanding program of counselling and personnel service, which aims to help each student to discover and make the most of his pos- sibilities through educational, vocational, and spiritual gui- dance. An effort is made to coordinate and correlate con- tributions to this service on the part of all members of the teaching and administrative staff of the school, each one in his special field. Through all, the primary aim sought is the welfare of the individual student. EMPLOYMENT SERVICE Especially during later years a large number of college students have found it necessary to secure part-time em- ployment while carrying on their studies. The Augsburg Employment Service was organized to help meet this need, and has been successful in placing hundreds of men and women students in part-time positions. Many Minneapolis institutions and firms have gladly cooperated in this enter- prise. The types of work secured are of many kinds, includ- ing restaurant work, house positions, sales work, clerical work, switchboard operating, janitor service, and so on. N Y A AND CAMPUS EMPLOYMENT As far as possible student assistance is utilized for the various types of service needed on the campus. These posi- tions are reserved for upper-class students who have main tained a good scholastic average. For the past few years grants from the National Youth Administration, given to worthy students in return for ser- vice rendered in selected fields, have enabled a large num- ber of young people to go to college who otherwise could not have continued their education. These assignments, open to all students, are also conditioned upon the maintenance of a good scholastic standing. Application is made upon a regular form which may be secured from the Registrar’s Oflice. TEACHERS’ PLACEMENT BUREAU For the purpose of assisting graduates with teachers’ cer- tificates to secure positions, the College maintains 9. Teach- Show less

Show more16 AUGSBURG COLLEGE AND SEMINARY RECREATION AND SOCIAL LIFE “No man is a hypocrite in his pleasures." To learn to en- Joy the right form of recreational activities is an important aspect of preparation for life. At Augsburg there is a definite attempt to encourage the formation of helpful recreational habit-patterns, not only as regards the definitely planned play-program supervised and directed by the Department of Physical Education, but as regards the use of leisure-time in general. Wholesome social activities of many kinds are fos- tered and encouraged. A definite attempt is made to achieve a true integration of the spiritual with the purely recrea- tional. Also in this area the goal is to "see all things through the eyes of Christ." CULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES Augsburg's location in Minneapolis gives its students unique opportunities to make use of some of the finest educa- tional and cultural advantages which the Northwest has to offer. Excellent art collections are to be found in The Min- neapolis Art Institute and the Walker Art Gallery. The Twin City libraries are large and extensive in their services. The Historical Museum in St. Paul gives access to large collec- tions of historical material. There are several colleges in the Twin Cities and also the State University, aflording con. tacts which are conducive to intellectual and cultural stim- ulus and development. CONVOCATION During the school year 1939-40 a series of Convocation programs was inaugurated at Augsburg. These will be con- tinued during the coming year, aiming to acquaint the campus community With outstanding personalities in vari- ous fields. A wide range of interests is covered in the pro grams, including the scientific, political, social, religious, and artistic.
