General Information
HISTORY AND AIMS
FUNDAMENTAL
AIMS
T h e educationai purposes of Augsburg College and Theological
Seminary spring from the conviction that Christianity is rhe fundamental force for good in human life. All rhe aims of rhe College,
as well as those of the Seminary, are bound together by this principle. To express more distinctty the meaning of this, the following statement of aims has been formulated by the College faculty:
T o lead the studemt to a deeper understanding and pe~sonal
realization of the truth and power of the Chr3stian Gospel, to
the end that he may become an effective participant in the
evangelical and missionary task of the Church and an earnest
advocate of the Christian way of life both for the individual and
for society.
To fawiliarize fbe d t ~ d e n twith the rult7~r.cof 01tr owrt a d
other rhilizothtr~,not only for the enjoyment this knowledge
a£fords but also for the development of a more sympathetic

welfare of humanity.
To stirnd.de intellectuul iderest and dewelup schhzrly insight, so that the student may learn to think with accuracy

~ cnlIep
first class was graduated
course was thoroughly revised in conformity with modern developments. As a result of this and of subsequent growth, the strictly
classical course has been largely modified and supplemented by
social and scientific studies and a more general emphasis upon the
study of the humanities. During 'the past ten years Majors' have
been added in the fields of Business Administration, Sckiology,
Physical Education, Music, and Home Economics. Until 1921
only men were admitted, but in that year coeducation was introduced.
In the Theological Seminary there has likewise been introduction
of new courses and enlargement of the faculty. Standards of admission have been raised so that a bachelor's degree or equivalent
is now the required scholastic preparation. While the Theological
Seminary has its own organization, the Seminary and the College
function in close cooperation. Long experience has proved such
an arrangement mutually wholesome and stimulating.
Five Presidents have served Augsburg during the course of its
history. The terms of oflice of two of these cover a span of over
half a century. The first President was August Weenaas, who
served from 1869 to 1876. He was succeeded by Georg Sverdrup,
I 876 t o 1907. Sven Oftedal served from 1907 to 191I and was
followed by George Sverdru~,whose term extended from I 9 I I to
1937. H. N. Hendrickson served as Acting President from 1937
until the election of Bernhard Christensen in 1938.
From I 870 to I 890, Augsburg was supported by the NorwegianDanish Lutheran Conference. The merger of that church body
with two others, in 1890, resulted in the aililiation of Augsburg
with the newly created United Norwegian Lutheran Church. Due
to ditFerences concerning the control of Augsburg a division arose,
and in 1897 congregations whose sympathies were deeply rooted in
Augsburg formed the Luthcrzn Free Church. The resulting close
association, in educational and spiritual activity, of Augsburg and
the Lutheran Free Church has been marked by complete harmony
of purpose and ideals for more than haIf a century.
The control exercised by the Lutheran Free Church is indirect.
The Annual Conference of the Church nominates the members
of the Augsburg Corporation and the Board of Trustees. The Cor-
poration through the Board of Trustees exercises direct control
over property, finance, and personnel. Academic control is vested
in the President and the Faculty.
In addition to the income from student tuition and fees, which
has materially increased with the growth and development of the
College, the chief hancial support of the institution comes from
the congregations of the Lutheran Free Church. In recent years a'
growing circle of friends also outside the Lutheran Free Church,
both alumni and others, have contributed financially t o the support of the school. Augsburg welcomes and invites such support on
the part of all who believe in her program of vital Christian education.
Augsburg College is a member of the Association of American
college& the National Lutheran Educational Conference, the Association of Minnesota Colleges, and the State Council of Minnesota Colleges.
BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT
LOCATION
Augsburg College and Theological Seminary is located in the
Riverside Park area of South Minneapolis, across the Mississippi
River from the University of Minnesota and within walking distance of the main business section of the city. Science Hall, containing the administration oaces, is located at the corner of Seventh Street and Twenty-first Avenue South. Augsburg students
have the advantage of getting their college education in a metropolitan center pulsating with industrial, social, and cultural activities. They have access to libraries, museums, and art collections.
They may hear the best music and lectures. They may contact
modern life at one of its focal points.
BUILDINGS
The Main, erected in 1900, contains the Chapel, the Library,
the Seminary classrooms and osces, and a number of college classrooms and ogces.
Science Hall, erected in 1948-49 and taken into use at the beginning of the present school year, is a large and completely modern college building. I t includes, besides the administration offices, well-equipped laboratories for Chemistry, Physics, Biology,
and Home Economics, as well as the student organization offices,
the Student Center, a small auditorium, classrooms,. and faculty
offices. On the fourth floor is the Tower Prayer Chapel.
Sverdrup-Oftedal Memorial Hall, erected in 1938, is a modern,
fireproof dormitory affording living quarters for about 150 men.
On the ground floor of this building is the college cafeteria and
dining hall.
Sivertsen Hall, acquired in 1939, is a splendid dormitory accommodating about 50 women. Plans are under way for the
erection of an addition to this dormitory.
Morton Hall, erected in 1888, and Edda House, purchased and
remodeled in 1948, are smaller dormitories for women, each accommodating about 2 0 students.
During 1947 two new buildings were added, both located on
23rd Avenue across the Square from the older part of the Campus.
The Gymnasium, a well-built and well-equipped temporary structure, was erected for the College by the Federal Works Agency
as a part of a program providing educational facilities for veterans.
The Music Hall, formerly the Tabernacle Baptist Church, was
acquired by purchase, and remodeled to serve the needs of the
Music Department.
Quite a number of dwellings have been acquired in recent years
in the expanded campus area, which are used for faculty and
student housing until this need can be met through more permanent structures. Also three temporary housing units have been
erected by the Federal Works Agency on the campus ground.
The President's Home, a beautiful residence of modern architectural design, located at the south of the Square, was erected in
1949.
Some years ago the beginning was made of a Museum for the
school. Members of the Alumni Association have presented manv
valuable gifts. There are several collections: a Madagascar Col-
lection, a Santal Collection, and a considerable collection of rare
minerals, curios, etc. Contributions should be sent to Prof. L.
Lillehei, Curator.
In the spring of 1929 the Augsburg Archive Society was organized. The purpose of this organization is to gather and preserve
documents, books, and other articles of historical value. To house
the Archives a fire-proof room which was provided in the Main
has been replaced recently by a large room on the ground floor of
Science Hall. Here are now found a fine collection of periodicals,
old and rare books, manuscripts, letters, and pictures, and also
about ~ , o o ovolumes of Norwegian-American literature, affording rich resources for scholarly research. Further contributions
to the Archives should be sent to Prof. L. Lillehei, Archivist.
The collectio~sin the Library aggregate about 26,000 volumes
exclusive of pamphlets.
Two hundred of the best periodicals, and pamphlets dealing
with popular subjects, and a number of serials devoted to the interests of special fields are received currently.
Students have access to the Library daily from 7:45 A. M. to
1o:oo P. M. On Saturday the Library closes at 4:00 P. M.
In the Twin City area other libraries are located which make
their holdings available to Augsburg students, notably, the St.
Paul and Minneapolis public libraries, the latter of which issues
library cards to out-of-town students for each school year; the
James Hill Reference Library in St. Paul, which has one 'of the
finest reference collections in the Northwest; and the University
of Minnesota Library, which is within walking distance of the
Augsburg campus and is a splendid source of materials for research
papers. Each year Augsburg students make extensive use of all
these libraries.
The laboratories of the Natural Sciences are located in the
Science Hall.
Three laboratories and two storerooms for Biology are located
on the second floor; three laboratories and a large storeroom for
Chemistry, and a laboratory and the two storeroams for Physics
are located on the third floor.
To facilitate instruction the callege provides many excellent
visual and auditory aids. Available for classroom use, and for the
use of other college activities, are the following: 16mm. sound
movie projector, 3 I / q q inch slide projector (several), 2 y ' ~ 2 yslide
y
projector, Balopticon, sound ampliiication system, film strip projector, magnetic tape recording machine. There is also a well
equipped photography department.
The Auditorium in Science Hall is fully equipped for visual
education classes and lectures. Several classrooms are also provided
with facilities for projection.
The Book Shoppe of The Messenger Press is located at 2120
Riverside Avenue, one block from the campus. Here are readily

STUDENT COMMUNITY LIFE
The influences which mould life and character on a college campus are of many kinds. While the exercises of classroom, laboratory,
and library form the organizing basis of college activity, they need
to be supplemented by other than academic forces. These intangible
but very real supplementary influences have much to do with
creating the spirit of an institution. At Augsburg definite emphasis is placed upon the maintenance of a wholesome spirit of
Christian community living. Students are urged to give conscious
attention to this personal and spiritual side of their development
and thus contribute toward the prevalence of a vital and happy
Christian atmosphere on the campus.
I t is the earnest desire of those who direct the policies of Augsburg that the institution may constantly be permeated by an at-
GENERALINFORMATION
mosphere in which the quest for Truth as it is in Christ is prayerfully fostered in the life of each student.
23
In order to help toward attaining these goals the faculty and
students gather in chapel every day for a brief meditation upon
the Word of God and the deepest needs of the human soul. Regular attendance is expected of all students. All students are required to register for two class hours per week in one of the courses
&red in Religion. There are numerous voluntary religious activities in which students are urged to participate. Spiritual Emphasis Week is heId twice each year. It is assumed that every Augsburg student will find a church home in Minneapolis and attend
its services regularly.
CULTURAL
OPPORTUNITIES
Augsburg's location in Minneapolis gives its students unique
opportunities to make use of some of the finest educational and
cultural advantages which the Northwest has to offer. Excellent
art collections are to be found in The Minneapolis Institute of
Arts 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 collections of historical material.
In the Twin Cities are located both the University of Minnesota
and several colleges, affording contacts which are conducive to intellectual and cultural stimulus and development.
CONVOCATION
Regular convocation programs are held a t Augsburg &roughout
the year. These programs aim to acquaint the campus community
with outstanding personalities and problems in various fields. A
wide range of interests is covered, including the scientzc, political,
social, religious, and artistic.
STUDENT PERSONNEL SERVICES
ADMINISTRATION
The coordination of the many ~ersonnelservices is the responsibility of a twelve-member Faculty Council headed by the Dean
of the College. Individual members of the Council or subcommittees direct the various activities, which include academic and
personal counseling, housing and food service, recreation and
health, employment and placement, and student activities.
1
The Luther League, the Mission Society, the Lutheran Student
Association, the National Student Association Council, and a
large number of departmental and special interest clubs are directly supervised by the Student Council. A Student-Faculty committee of eight members promotes and supervises student activities
serving as a liaison between the Faculty and Student Councils.
The counseling program for new students begins as soon as the
Admissions and Scholarship Committee has approved their applications. All available data concerning each prospective student are
combined with test results obtained during Freshman Week for
use during registration.
Each new student is assigned a faculty counselor, generally on
the basis of mutual academic interest. This assignment continues
for the first two years. At a scheduled period during Freshman
Week, the student meets with his counselor for registration. At
least three additional counseling periods are scheduled for each
semester. Whenever he feels the need, the student is encouraged
to see his counselor for help to discover and develop as fully as p a sible his latent abilities. Upper-class students are counseled by
their major advisers.
Additional counseling is provided for the students by the use
of student counselors. Each entering Freshman is assigned a student counselor, who works with a faculty counselor in each instance. The program is organized by a Student Counselor Steering Committee working with the Personnel Committee.
Adjustment to college is one of several subjects introduced during Freshman Week. The various phases of this important problem of personal adjustment are given thorough study in the Orientation course which meets one hour per week throughout the
first semester. Vocational possibilities within the divisional organization of the College are presented and course sequences are discussed. Personal and health probl&s, social adjustment, vocational and educational aims are examined from the point of view
of individual needs.
Special problems in counseling are referred to the Personnel
Committee, which is composed of a member of the Department of
Christianity, the Registrar, a professor of Psychology, the Director
of Physical Education, the Dean of Women, and the Dean of Men,
who serves as chairman. The administration of the counseling
program is the work of the Personnel Committee.
A system of referral makes available to any student the resources
and special abilities of the entire faculty. Through all phases of
the counseling program, the primary aim is the welfare of the individual student.
The personal problems of the students are dealt with in the light
of the following spiritual purposes and ideals. It is expected
of each student that his life, conduct, and influence, both on and
off campus, shall be worthy of a member of a Christian College.
Those who do not feel drawn to this quality of life and to the
fellowship in which it is nourished should not seek to be enrolled
at Augsburg. A truly Christian spirit and environment must be
the product of the united effort and prayer of faculty, students,
and administration.
The Christian ideals of Augsburg give no room for such demoralizing practices as gambling, drinking, frequenting of public
dances, indiscriminate attendance at movies, and objectionable
card playing. Students enrolled at Augsburg must, therefore, not
participate in such practices.
Augsburg reserves the right t o dismiss or to discipline any student who is not amenable t o advice and direction. The school likewise reserves the right to dismiss any student whose general conduct or influence is unwholesome. Such a student may be removed
although no formal charge is made against him.
RECREATION AND
SOCIALLIFE
"No man is a hypocrite in his pleasures." To learn to enjoy the
right form of recreational activities is an important aspect of preparation for life. A t 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 fostered and encouraged. Also in this area the goal
is "to see all things through the eyes of Christ."
The Stdent Center, in the new Science Hall, serves as a social,
cultural, and conference area for students. During the day, students use the Center as a general reading and committee room.
The campus post o6ce is adjacent to the Student Center, as
are also The Student Council Room and The Echo and The Augsburgian o0ices.
The Prayer Chapel in the tower of the new Science Hall is open
at all times for quiet meditation and prayer. Smaller groups may
request the use of the chapel for devotional meetings.
A room for off campus men is located in Sverdrup-Oftedal
Memorial Hall and for off campus women in Morton Hall.
All students who are not living at home are required to room in
the College dormitories, unless permission to room elsewhere is
granted by one of the Deans. Such permission must be secured
before final arrangements are made.
Residents in dormitories are required to take their meals in the
College dining hall except those students who are employed away
from the College. The charges for room and board are payable in
advance.
The residence halls are open for the occupancy of students on
the day preceding the beginning of registration. Temporary arrangements may be made for students who have permission to
come early to seek employment. Meals are served commencing on
the morning of the first. day of registration.
Dormitories are officially closed daring all vacations within
twenty-four hours after the last session of -class work except by
special arrangement with the Deans.
Dormitory residents are held responsible for breakage or injury
to the furniture and furnishings.
The College believes in the educational value of group living
under faculty supervision. It is expected that life in the dormitories should foster the development of Christian character, selfcontrol, and consideration for the rights of others.

HOUSINGFOR WOMEN
The college operates a cottage plan of supervised residences for
women, pending the building of the planned additions to Sivertsen
Hall.

attempt is made to assign the rooms so as to meet the student
interests and needs, and to create congenial housing units.
Sivertsen Hall, acquired in 1939 through the generosity of Dr.
Ivar Sivertsen, accommodates about fifty Freshman women students. The first floor has a large reception room used for social
functions. In the basement are a kitchenette and a recreation room.
Applications for rooms should be sent as soon as a student is
notified of his acceptance. Applicants will be assigned to dormitory
rooms in the order in which their applications are received.
Rooms are assigned to present occupants of the dormitories by
August first. After that, they are assigned to new applicants in
the order of application.
Students who cannot be accommodated in permanent dormitories may find rooms in temporary housing units. Rooms in approved private homes are also available. Arrangements for these
rooms are made through the Personnel Office.
For married students, the college has two temporary housing
buildings, each accommodating four families.
FOOD SERVICE

cost to student groups, for special parties or picnics.
The program of health service is in charge of the Director of
Physical Education and Recreation, who is assisted by the School
Physician and the School Nurse. It includes regular physical examinations, corrective measures where needed, and a school-wide
program of recreation and physical training. Infirmary Rooms are
provided for the use of those who are ill. The ogce is in Room I I I,
Memorial Hall.
Students, faculty, and staff have chest X-rays taken semi-annually through the cooperation of the Hennepin County Tuberculosis Association Mobile Unit. The service is free.
A large number of college students find it necessary to secure
part-time employment while carrying on their studies. The Employment Service, operated by the Oflice of Public Relations, 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 enterprise. The types of work secured are of many kinds, including recreational leadership, restaurant work, domestic service, sales work, and secretarial and
clerical work.
Students are employed by the college in many activities. For
these positions preference is given to upper-class students who
have maintained a good scholastic average.
AppIication forms for part-time employment on or off campus
may be secured from the Oflice of Public Relations.
The Placement Bureau seeks to assist members of the graduating
class, as well as alumni, in securing positions. A registration fee
and a small placement fee are charged.

General Information
PURPOSE
Augsburg College is a four-year liberal arts college sponsored
by the Lutheran Free Church for the purpose of giving young
people an opportunity to obtain a broad education in a Christian
environment. In addition to a general education, students may prepare themselves for such vocations as high school teaching, business administration, medical technology, secretarial work, parish
work, missions, and social work. They may prepare for further
study in the fields of dentistry, engineering, law, medicine, nursing, and theology, as well as for graduate study in various fields.
The Skminary, with its facilities on the same campus, offers a
three-year rheological course leading to a Bachelor of Theology
degree. Its purpose is to prepare pastors and missionaries for the
Lutheran Free Ohurch.
LOCATION
Augsburg College and Theological Seminary is located in the
Riverside Park area of South Minneapolis, across the Mississippi
River from the University of Minnesota and within walking distance of the main business section of the city. Science Hall, containing the administration offices, is located at the corner of Seventh Street and Twenty-first Avenue South. Augsburg students
have the advantage of getting their college education in a metropolitan center pulsating with industrial, social, and cultural activities. They have access to libraries, museums, and art collections.
They may hear the best in music and lectures. Minneapolis is
recognized throughout the nation as a vital center of religious
life and activity. Outstanding leaders in many fields both from
other parts of America and from foreign countries are frequent
visitors. College students in the Twin Cities have abundant opportunity to contact present day life at one of its focal points.
HISTORICAL SKETCH
Augsburg was begun as a seminary in I 869, at Marshall, W'~sconsin. It was the first theological seminary started by Norwegian
Lutherans in America. Through an arrangement with a private
institution known as Marshall Academy the Seminary was housed
in the academy building. Students who needed further preparation in academic subjects were to obtain this in the academy. This
arrangement failed to work out satisfactorily; so the theological
group moved to a private dwelling, where classes continued until
1872. In the autumn of that year the Seminary was removed to
Minneapolis, Minnesota, where a building had been erected for its
use. In the same year the school was incorporated under the laws
of Minnesota. The aim of the institution was to train ministers
for the Lutheran congregations which were being organized in
growing numbers in the pioneer settlements that were spreading
rapidly over the Northwest.
The college was established when it became evident that in order
to get students who were adequately prepared for theological
study a college department was needed. So in 1874 a college curriculum was planned which provided for one year of preparatory
studies and four years of college work along two lines, a classical
course to prepare students for theology, and a scientific course to
prepare for the professions. The latter course, however, had to be
discontinued, partly for lack of funds and partly because too
few students selected the course. The first college students were
enrolled in 1874 and the first class was graduated in 1879.
In 1900 a high school course covering three years was established
which in 1910 was expanded to a standard four-year course. This
was discontinued in 1933. In the years 1916-1919 the college
course was thoroughly revised. As a result of this and of subsequent growth, the earlier classical course was greatly modified and
supplemented by social and scientific studies and a more general
emphasis upon the study of the humanities. In recent years there
has ,been continuous study and modification of the curriculum including the introduction of a number of new majors to meet the
developing needs of the students. The Divisional organization was
adopted in 1945. At the present time majors are offered in 17 fields.
Coeducation was introduced in the College in 1921.
In the Theological Seminary there has likewise been a continuing revision of the curriculum and the addition of new courses.
The requirement of a six-month period of internship was added
in 1939. Standards of admission have ,been raised so that a bachelor's degree or equivalent is now the required scholastic preparation. While the Theological Seminary has its own organization, the
Seminary and the College function in close cooperation. Long
experience has proved this arrangement to be mutually wholesome
and stimulating.
Five presidents have served Augsburg during the course of its
history. The terms of o6ce of two of these cover a span of over
half a century. The first president was August Weenaas, who
served from 1869 to 1876. He was succeeded by Georg Sverdrup,
1876 to 1907. Sven Oftedal served from 1907 to 1911 and was
followed by George Sverdru~,whose term extended from 191I to
1937. H. N. Hendrickson served as acting president from 1937
until 1938. Bernhard Christensen, the present president, has served
since that time.
FUNDAMENTAL AIMS
The educational purposes of Augsburg College and Theological
Seminary spring from the conviction that Christianity is the fundamental force for good in human life. All the aims of the College,
as well as those of the Seminary, are bound together by this principle. To express more distinctly the meaning of this, the following statement of aims has been formulated by the College faculty:
T o lead the student to cr deeper understanding and personal
realization of the truth and pvwer of the Chistian Gospel, to
the end that he may become an eeective participant in the
evangelical and missionary task of the Church and an earnest
advocate of the Christian way of life both for the individual and
for society.
To familiarize the student with the clcltare of our own and
other civilizatiolts, not only for the enjoyment this knowledge
affords but also for the development of a more sympathetic
understanding of our fellow men throughout the world.
T o develop the student's ittterest in the attahment of the
comnum pwposes of our counhy, so that he may work for the
welfare of our institutions and for the preservation of our
liberties in community and nation, and also develop an enlightened interest and participation in human affairs throughout the rest of the world.
T o cdtivate in the student a Christian social spirit, in order
that he may realize in his life a right balance between what he
expects of others and the service he will render his fellow men.
To teach t h e student t o discipline his own urges, interests,
amhtiuns, and demands in a way that will effectively contribute toward the development of good character.
To train t h e student in scientific methods of study and also
develop his understanding of the relations of science to the
welfare of humanity.
To stimulate intellectual interest and develop s c h o l l y insight, so that the student may learn to think with accuracy
and comprehension a t the same time as he experiences an understanding of truth which will help him to integrate the findings of science with the deepest spiritual reality.
To awaken and foster in the student a n intelligent appreciation and enjoyment of t h e best in t h e fields of t h e fine arts.
T o guide the student in the understanding of social relationships in order that he may take his place in groups and gatherings with propriety and grace, motivated in his conversation
and conduct by the principles of Christian courtesy and sincerity.
T o provide guidance fw the student in the discovery and
clarification of his aptitudes and his life Purposes so that as
early as possible he may plan his educational program wisely.
T o train students in vocational and professicmaZ lines, giving full preparation for high school teaching, business administration, home economics, and parish work; furnishing partial
training towards the study of medicine, dentistry, nursing, engineering, law, and social service, and offering a four-year
college course preparing for the study of theology.
T o help the student develop certain skills, as in language,
music, physical activities, use of the library, laboratory work,
and typewriting, together with other skills, which will increase
his eaciency in the various relationships of life.
T o agord t h e student wholesome recreational experience which
will contribute toward an effective use of leisure time and develop such qualities as leadership, sportsmanship, and self-control, with good recreational habits, thus providing a constant
source of social and personal satisfaction.
T o instruct t h e student in principles, attitudes, and ideas
pertaining to health, and also to train him in practices and
skills which will promote his physical and mental well-being
and make him better fit to meet the responsibilities of life.
The work of the whole institution, both the Seminary and the
College, is done on the basis of Christianity. The students who
come are invited to take up their college work with the distinct
understanding that the Christian spirit is determining in all things.
They are asked to cooperate willingly in the program of the school
towards that end. The entire program of the school, curricular and
extra-curricular, and the discipline thought wise in order to make
possible the carrying out of this program, spring from the aim "to
see all things through the eyes of Christ."
Enrollment in Augsburg College and Theological Seminary presupposes on the part of the student full cooperation in the ways
prescribed for the attainment of these aims.
FINANCIAL SUPPORT AND CONTROL
From I 870 to I 890, Augsburg was supported by the NorwegianDanish Lutheran Conference. The merger of that church body
with two others, in 1890, resulted in the afdiation of Augsburg
with the newly created United Norwegian Lutheran Church. Due
to cMerences concerning the control of Augsburg a division arose,
and in x 897 congregations whose sympathia were deeply rooted in
Augsburg formed the Lutheran Free Church. The resulting close
association, in educational and spiritual activity, of Augsburg and
the Lutheran Free Church has been marked by complete harmony
of purpose and ideals for more than half a century.
The control exercised by the Lutheran Free Church is indirect.
The Annual Conference of the Church nominates the members
of the Augsburg Corporation and the Board of Trustees. The Corporation through the Board of Trustees exercises direct control
over property, finance, and personnel. Academic control is vested
in the President and the Faculty.
In addition to the income from student tuition and fees, which
has materially increased with the growth and development of the
College, rhe chief financial support of the institution comes from
the congregations of the Lutheran Free Church. In recent years a
growing circle of friends also outside the Lutheran Free Church,
both alumni and others, have contributed financially to the sup-
port of the school. Augsburg welcomes and invites such support on
the part of all who believe in her program of vital Christian education.
MEMBERSHIP IN EDUCATIONAL ASSOCIATIONS.
Augsburg College is fully accredited by rhe North Central Association of Colleges and Secondmy Schools as a degree-granting
institution. It is a member of the Association of American Colleges, the National Lurheran Educational Conference, the Association of Minnesota colleges, and the State Council of Minnesota Colleges.
THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
The Augsburg Alumni Association has as its goal to enable the
graduates of the College and Seminary to maintain effective contact and cooperation with one another and with their A h a Mater.
The annual meeting is held at Commencement time each year.
Regional meetings also are held from time to time.
The present ogcers are: Henry J. Bertness, President; Esther
Aune, Vice-president; Marian Lowrie, Recording Secretary; Gloria
Nelson, Harvey Peterson, and Kennet,h Sorenson, Advisers.
THE AUGSBURG FOUNDATION
The Augsburg Foundation, formerly the Augsburg Foundation
Fellowship, is an association of alumni, former students, and other
friends of Augsburg, having as its purpose to give united and
systematic support, ,both spiritual and financial, to the school. The
Foundation was estgblished in 1941 by joint action of the Board
of Trustees and the Alumni Association. Its work is directed by a
General Committee of nine members. A Foundation Day is held
each year.
EDUCATIONAL PLANT
BUILDINGS
The Main, erected in 1900, contains the Chapel, the Library,
the Seminary classrooms and oflices, and a number of college classrooms and oflices.
Science Hall, erected in 1948-49, is a large and completely modern college building. It includes, besides the administration of-
fices, well-equipped laboratories for Chemistry, Physics, Biology,
and Home Economics, as well as the student organization &ces,
the Student Center, a small auditorium, classrooms, and faculty
osces. On the fourth floor is the Tower Prayer Chapel.
Sverdrup-Oftedal Memorial Hall, erected in 1938, is a modem,
fireproof dormitory affording living quarters for about 150 men.
On the ground floor of this building is the college cafeteria and
dining hall.
Sivertsen Hall, acquired in 1939, is a comfortable dormitory
accommodating about 50 women.
Morton Hall, erected in 1888, Edda House, purchased and
remodeled in 1948, and Miriam House, acquired in 195 I, are
smaller dormitories for women, each accommodating about 20
students.
During 1947 two new buildings were added, both located on
~ 3 r Avenue
d
across the Square from the older part of the Campus.
The Gymnasium, an adequate temporary structure, was erected for
the College by the Federal Works Agency as a part of a program
providing educational facilities for veterans. The Music Hall was
acquired by purchase and remodeled to serve the needs of the
Music Department.
Quite a number of dwellings have been acquired in recent years
in the expanded campus area, which are used for faculty and
student housing until this need can be met through more permanent structures. Also three temporary housing units have been
erected by the Federal Works Agency on the campus ground.
The President's Home, a residence of modern architectural
design, located at the south of the Square, was erected in 1949.
Some years ago the beginning was made of a Museum for the
school. Members of the Alumni Association have presented many
t
s
. There are several collections: a Madagascar Cdvaluable d
lection, a Santal Collection, and a considerable collection of rare
minerals, curios, etc. Contributions to the Museum are invited.
In the spring of 1929 the Augsburg Archive Society was organized. The purpose of this organization is to gather and preseme
documents, books, and other articles of historical value. To house
the Archives a fire-proof room which was provided in the Main
has been replaced recently by a large room on the ground floor of
Science Hall. Here are now found a fine collection of periodicals,
old and rare books, manuscripts, letters, and pictures, and also
about I ,000 volumes of Norwegian-American literature, affording rich resources for scholarly research. Further contributions
to the Archives should be sent to Prof. Iver Olson, Archivist.
The collections in the Library aggregate about 27,700 volumes
exclusive of pamphlets.
About three hundred of the best periodicals, and pamphlets dealing with various subjects, and a number of serials devoted to the
interests of special fields are received currently.
Students have access to the Library daily from 7:45 A. M. to
1o:oo P. M. On Saturday the Library closes at 4:30 P. M.
In the Twin City area other libraries are located-which make
their holdings available to Augsburg students, notably, the St.
Paul and Minneapolis public libraries, the latter of which issues
library cards to out-of-town students for each school year; the
James Hill Reference Library in St. Paul, which has one of the
finest reference collections in the Northwest; and the University
of Minnesota Library, which is within walking distance of the
Augsburg campus and is a splendid source of materials for research
papers. Each year Augsburg students make extensive use of all
these libraries.
NATURALSCIENCELABORATORIES
The laboratories of the Natural Sciences are located in the
Science Hall.
Three laboratories and two storerooms for Biology are located
on the second floor; three laboratories and a large storeroom for
Chemistry, and a laboratory and the .two storerooms for Physics
are located on the third floor.
To facilitate instruction the college provides many excellent
visual and auditory aids. Available for classroom use, and for the
use of other college activities, are the following: Two 16mm.
sound movie projectors, two 3 I/4x4 inch slide projectors, three
2x2 slide projectors, a Balopticon, a sound amplification system,
two film strip projectors, and a magnetic tape recording machine.
There is also a well equipped photography department.
The Auditorium in Science Hall is fully equipped for visual
education classes and lectures. Several classrooms are dso provided
with facilities for projection.
SPECIAL PROGRAMS OF STUDY
Evening classes are held as a community sexvice for adults not
enrolled in the day school. Announcement of course to be offered
are made in the fall. Information about the evening school may
be obtained from the o6ce of the Dean.
OF NURSING
AFFILIATIONWITH SCHOOLS
Student nurses in the Schools of Nooursing
at the Lutheran Deaconess and Swedish Hospitals in Minneapolis receive much of their
first semester of instruction at Augsburg College. Application for
admission to the Schools of Nursing should be made to the hospitals directly.
In cooperation with the Minneapolis General Hospital, Augsburg offers work which enables the student to receive a college
degree with a major in Medical Technology. The first three years
of this work are taken at Augsburg and a final twelve-month program is completed at the hospital.-
Financial Information
STUDENT EXPENSES
A considerable part of the income on whiah Augsburg operates
is derived from endowment and from gifts, a major part of the
latter coming from the supporting church. Therefore, the fees
charged the student do not constitute h e whole cost of his education, for he enjoys the benefits of the gifts of those who 'believe
in and support rhe work of the school. Fm theological students,
the church assumes the full cost of tuition; a statement of other
expenses in attending the seminary is given in the Seminary section of the catalog.

CHRISTIAN ENVIRONMENT
The influences which mould life and character on a college campus are of many kinds. While the exercises of classroom, laboratory,
and library form the organizing basis of college activity, they need
to be supplemented by other than academic forces. These intangible
but very real supplementary iQuences have much t o do with
creating the spirit of an institution. At Augsburg d e h i t e emphasis is placed upon the maintenance of a wholesome spirit of
Christian community living. Students are urged to give conscious
attention to this personal and spiritual side of their development
and thus contribute toward the prevalence of a vital and happy
Christian atmosphere on the campus.
It is the earnest desire of those who direct the policies of Augsburg that the institution may constantly be permeated by an atmosphere in which the quest for Truth as it is in Christ is prayerf d y fostered in each life.
All students are required to register for two class hours per week
in one of the courses offered in Religion. There are numerous voluntary religious activities in which students are encouraged to
participate. Spiritual Emphasis Week is held twice each year. It is
assumed that every Augsburg student will h d a church home
in Minneapolis and attend its services regularly.
I t is expected of each student that his life, conduct, and influence, both on and 06 campus, shall be worthy of a member of a
Christian College. Those who do not feel drawn to this quality
of life and to the fellowship in which it is nourished should not
seek to be enrolled at Augsburg. A truly Christian spirit and
environment must be the product of the united effort and prayer
of faculty, students, and administration.
THE CHAPEL SERVICE
The heart of Augsburg's program of Christian education is the
daily Chapel Service, where the faculty and students gatfier for
united worship, prayer, and a brief meditation upon the Word of
God. Regular attendance is expected of all students.
DISCIPLINE
The Christian ideals of Augsburg give no room for such demoralizing practices as gambling, drinking, frequenting of public
dances, indiscriminate attendance at movies, and objectionable
card playing. Students enrolled at Augsburg are expected, therefore, not to participate in such practices.
Augsburg reserves the right to dismiss or to discipline any student who is not amenable to advice and direction. The school likewise reserves the right to dismiss any student whose general conduct or influence is unwholesome. Such a student may be removed
although no formal charge is made against him.
CULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES
Augsburg's location in Minneapolis gives its students unique
opportunities to make use of some of the finest educational and
cultural advantages offered in the Upper Midwest. Excellent
art collections are to be found in The Minneapolis Institute of
Arts 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 collections of historical material. The
Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra programs and other concerts
afford rich opportunity for music appreciation.
In the Twin Cities are located both the University of Minnesota
and several colleges, affording contacts which are conducive to intellectual and cultural stimulus and development.
CONVOCATION

the year. These programs aim to acquaint the campus community
with outstanding personalities and problems in various fields. A
wide range of interests is covered, including the scientiiic, political,
social, religious, and artistic.
RECREATION AND SOCIAL LIFE
"No man is a hypocrite in his pleasures." To learn to enjoy 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. Wholesale social activities of of
many kinds are fostered and encouraged.

Imtercollegiate Athletics. Augsburg is a member of the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. The college is represented annually by teams in football, basketball, baseball, track,
tennis, and golf.
It is the purpose of Augsburg to provide an intercollegiate
athletic program which is in harmony with its Christian philosophy. This philosophy is to 'be reflected in the conduct and outlook of lboth the players and =he spectators. The educational program of the college recognizes that recreation and play are a
fundamental part of human life, and that t'&s phase of life needs
to be cultivated if physical, mental, and emotional health are to
be maintained. Intercollegiate athletics, as a phase of that program, gives recognition to the fact that competitive play can contribute to the development of student interests, skills, insights, and
loyalties.
More specifically, the following outcomes are sought: ( I ) The
student participating in athletics should acquire and exhibit, 'both
in and out of athletics, such ,basic qualities of character as self-
discipline, honesty, sense of fair play, and cmperation. ( 2 ) The
participant should develop the knowledge, interests, and skills
which will be of special use to him in such vocations as teaching
and coaching or recreational leadership, or in his own recreational
activities. Far from being set apart from his educational goal or in
any way competing with it, the student's participation in intercollegiate athletics must either contribute directly to this goal or
be complementary to his other educational activities. ( 3 ) The student spectator should acquire and exhibit some of the finer qualities of Christian character, such as self-restraint, sense of fair play,
appreciation of high grade performance on the part of both opponents and fellow-students, and respect for individual personality.
(4) The intercollegiate a~hleticprogram should contribute to the
development of a unified and healthy "schml spirit". Enthusiasm
for intercollegiate athletics or other cocurricular activities should
not overshadow pride in high scholastic achievement, nor can it
take the place of a well-rounded and effective intramural and general recreational program.

will result in a grade of failure in the course concerned.
A student who has to be absent from a h a 1 examination because of a conflict with outside work from which he cannot obtain an excuse may arrange to take such an examination during
some period after the time on which the subject is scheduled.
If a student has obtained permission from the proper authorities
to take a h a 1 at another hour than the one scheduled, he is charged
a fee of two dollars for such an examination. The fee is to be
paid to the Treasurer of the school, and, before the student takes
an examination, he must obtain a statement from the Registrar's
oflice and bring it to the teacher concerned. The teacher will give
no examination before he has this statement.
A condition or an incomplete received at the end of the semester
must be removed within the first five weeks of classes of the following semester of attendance or within a year if the student has
not 're-enrolled. Extension of this time may be made by the Registrar's Of3ice in cases of illness. If incompletes and conditions are
not removed within the time allowed, the condition automatically
becomes a failure and the incomplete may be changed to a passing
grade only when the average of the previous work is suf3iciently
high. The final grade after the condition examination is taken
may not be higher than D A fee of $2.00 is charged for an examination making up an incomplete or a condition received at the
end of a semester.
Comprehensive examinations may be ,permitted in courses in
which the Admissions and Scholarship Committee feels the student
has adequate preparation or background. Students who wish to
take a comprehensive examination must apply in writing to this
committee. When permission is granted, the necessary approval
forms may be secured at the oilice of the Registrar. A fee of $5.00
is charged for each examination and must be paid in advance.
Examination questions and the answers will be filed in the Registrar's oilice.

Department of Psychology and Education
Courses i n orientation are offered to freshmen as a part of the total program
designed to m i s t in the adjustments that the incoming student needs to make.
The work in psychology is designed to aid the student in more adequately understanding, predicting, and controlling his own behavior as well as that ob ht
fellowmen. The education curriculum has been designed primarily for those
preparing to do high school teaching, although any student who is preparing
to work with youth is encouraged to study in this area. The work in this department will qualify the teaching graduate for a Minnesota Teacher's c e d cate on the junior and senior high school level, as well as for further study in
the field of education.
Admission to the teacher education curriculum requires an application to be
approved 'by the Committee on Teacher Education. Application must be made

minimum in scholastic achievement of a 1.5 honor point ratio in the major, a
1.0 ratio in the minor, and a 1.0 ratio for the over-all average. The applicant
should be preparing for competency in at least two subject-matter fields that are
also taught on ,the high school level.
AS1 students admitted to the teacher education curriculum m w t secure two

Introducing Augsburg College
About Augsburg
About Augsburg
History
At 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 the best preparation for living in the fastpaced, changing, and complex world of today and tomorrow.
Augsburg graduates 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.
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, Wis., and
moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The first seminarians were
enrolled in 1874, and the first graduation was in 1879.
Discovering Your Gifts and Talents
The heart of an Augsburg education is the Augsburg Core
Curriculum—designed to prepare students to become effective, informed, and ethical citizens. Through “Search for
Meaning” courses, students explore their own unique gifts
and interests and find where their own talents intersect with
the needs of our global society.
At the same time, courses across all disciplines stress the
skills that will serve 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.
Early Leaders Establish a Direction
August Weenaas was Augsburg’s first president (1869-1876).
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
more than 130 years.
Education for Service
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 40 for a complete list of majors and minors.) This five-college consortium
allows day program students to take courses on other campuses without charge while a full-time student at Augsburg.
The ACTC includes Augsburg College, St. Catherine
University, Hamline University, Macalester College, and the
University of St. Thomas.
Weekend College offers 17 majors and a number of
certificate programs.
Keeping the vision of the democratic 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. The college division, however, was still
important primarily as an attachment to the seminary.
Mission Statement
The Focus Changed
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 mission:
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
longtime dean of women, Gerda Mortensen.
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
(1938-1962). His involvement in ecumenical and civic circles
Selection from over 50 Majors
“Augsburg College educates students to be informed citizens, thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible leaders. The Augsburg experience is supported by
an engaged community that is committed to intentional
diversity in its life and work. An Augsburg education is
defined by excellence in the liberal arts and professional
studies, guided by the faith and values of the Lutheran
church, and shaped by its urban and global settings.”

A College of the Church
I Augsburg College 2010-2011
About Augsburg
made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city life.
After World War II, 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 modern college program based on general
education requirements and elective majors. Full accreditation of the College was achieved in 1954.
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. Subsequently, the American Lutheran
Church merged with two other Lutheran bodies in 1988 to
form the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
A College in the City
Under the leadership of President Oscar A. Anderson (19631980) Augsburg became a vital and integral part of the city.
The College began to reach out to nontraditional student
populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all students. Also in these years, Augsburg added the Music Hall,
Mortensen Hall, Urness Hall, Christensen Center, Ice Arena,
and Murphy Place.
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 curriculum 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, Lobeck,
Miles Center for Worship, Drama, and Communication; the
Oscar Anderson Residence Hall; and the James G. Lindell
Family Library.
Dr. William V. Frame became president in August 1997
and retired in 2006. Under his leadership, the College sharpened its identity as a college of the city, providing an education grounded in vocational calling that provides students
both the theoretical learning and the practical experience to
succeed in a global, diverse world.
Dr. Paul C. Pribbenow became president in July 2006.
Under his leadership, the College aims to educate students
of all ages — in the midst of a great city — to be faithful
citizens of the world.
• 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.
The vision of the College’s work today is lived out in the
phrase, “We believe we are called to serve our neighbor.”
Through common commitments to living faith, active citizenship, meaningful work, and global perspective, Augsburg
prepares its students to become effective, ethical citizens in a
complex global society.
In addition to Augsburg’s undergraduate program of
liberal arts and sciences, Augsburg offers master’s degree programs in business, education, leadership, nursing, physician
assistant studies, and social work. The College’s first doctoral
program, in nursing practice, has been approved. For information on graduate programs, go to www.augsburg.edu/grad.
Undergraduate education is offered both on weekday
semester programs, and alternate weekend trimester programs. The graduate programs generally follow the trimester
schedule.
In addition to its Minneapolis campus, Augsburg
has a branch campus in Rochester, Minn. and a center in
Bloomington, Minn.
Weekend College
Augsburg’s Weekend College (WEC) provides an educational
opportunity for adults who want to earn a baccalaureate
degree and work or have other commitments during the
week. It is a means by which men and women can gain skills
for professional advancement, prepare for a career change, or
pursue a personal interest in one or more areas of the liberal
arts.
Weekend College began in 1982 with 69 students taking
courses in three majors. Eight courses were offered in the
first term. Today, with approximately 1,000 students enrolled
each term and a variety of majors in the liberal arts and professional studies, WEC is one of the largest programs of its
type among Minnesota private colleges.

Augsburg’s Weekend College is based on the assumption that
adult students are mature, self-disciplined, and motivated
learners who seek a combination of classroom experience
and individual study. Each course includes periods of concentrated, on-campus study as well as time for independent
study and class preparation.
Augsburg Today
Alternate Weekends
Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the founders who believed:
To meet the needs of nontraditional students, classes generally meet on alternate weekends for three-and-a-half to four

About Augsburg
hours on either Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday
afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Laboratory sections or
additional class hours may be scheduled during the week.
WEC students may take from one to four courses each term.
The WEC academic year is divided into three trimesters (fall,
winter, and spring), so that students may complete three
terms in the traditional nine-month academic year.
A Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg’s Weekend College is
participation in a community of adult learners. This community is enriched by the presence of men and women with a
variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of
community interaction, Augsburg encourages WEC students
to make use of College facilities, such as Lindell Library, and
to participate in academic and co-curricular activities, such
as the student newspaper, travel seminars, student organizations, fine arts, networking events, workshops, and convocations. The WEC student body elects its own leaders through
the WEC Student Senate.
Augsburg for Adults
Through the Augsburg for Adults program office, Augsburg
continues its tradition of innovation to meet the needs of
adult students by creating new programs, providing faculty
and staff development in adult learning, and serving adult
and non-traditional students.
Students are recognized as adult learners from age 25 to
60-plus whether they take courses in the traditional day program, the Weekend College program, or any of the graduate
programs. To learn more about graduate studies at Augsburg,
go to www.augsburg.edu/grad.
Weekend College Faculty
The heart of any educational institution is its faculty, and
the WEC faculty are full-time Augsburg professors as well as
adjunct faculty who bring professional experience to their
teaching. Most faculty hold a doctorate or other terminal
degree, and all consider teaching to be the focus of their
activities at the College. Professors are involved in social,
professional, and a variety of research activities, but these
support and are secondary to their teaching. Faculty are
actively involved in a dynamic faculty development program
that introduces them to best practices in teaching and learning techniques and theories.
Weekend College’s small classes facilitate the College’s
tradition of close involvement between professors and
students. Faculty act as academic advisers and participate
regularly in campus activities.
Rochester campus
Augsburg’s branch campus in Rochester was established in
1998 as a natural extension of the College’s mission and
its expertise in teaching working adults. In Rochester, six
undergraduate majors, plus a certificate program in business
management, are offered.
12
I Augsburg College 2010-2011
The Rochester campus classrooms and offices are located
at Bethel Lutheran Church (ELCA), a few blocks south of the
heart of the city. Rochester, a city of about 100,000 residents,
enjoys a rich ethnic diversity and superior technological
resources.
Augsburg classes in Rochester meet on a trimester
schedule, on weekday evenings and on occasional Saturdays,
making them accessible to working adults. Several complete
degree programs are available through the Rochester campus.
In addition, students may work on a variety of other majors
through a combination of Rochester-based courses and
courses taken in the Day or WEC program in Minneapolis.
Students at the Rochester campus are Augsburg College
students. They are supported through an array of e-learning
resources ranging from access to Lindell Library databases to
the use of online course management software. Information
about the Rochester campus is available at www.augsburg.edu/
Rochester or by calling the Rochester office at 507-288-2886.
Partner Hospitals Program
Also within Weekend College, Augsburg offers a bachelor’s
completion degree in nursing for registered nurses at three
area hospitals, making their education convenient to their
workplace. Classes are taught at United Hospital in St. Paul,
with video conferencing of these classes to classrooms in
Mercy Hospital in Coon Rapids and Unity Hospital in Fridley.
College of the Third Age
Augsburg demonstrates its commitment to lifelong learning
in part through its College of the Third Age. College of the
Third Age is a teaching-learning service founded more than
30 years ago to serve older adults by encouraging lifelong
learning, fostering interactive discussion, and to introducing
new topics and subjects related to an ever-changing world.
A roster of more than 40 retired, semi-retired, and working
professors teach non-credit seminars for the program, based
upon their areas of expertise.
College of the Third Age partners with organizations
and facilities that serve older adults in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, including churches, synagogues, community
centers, and senior residences. The current catalog lists more
than 200 classes available for group study at partner organizations and facilities. To obtain further information about the
program or to request a catalog, call 612-330-1139 or visit

Undergraduate Admissions
Undergraduate Admissions
Undergraduate Admissions
Augsburg College strives to create a strong, rich, and vibrant
campus community with students representing a large number of backgrounds, viewpoints, experiences, talents, and
cultures.
Selection of students for Augsburg College is based
upon careful consideration of each candidate’s academic
achievement, personal qualities and interests, participation in
activities and employment, and potential for development as
a student and as a graduate of Augsburg College.
Visit the Campus
Because firsthand appraisal of programs, facilities, and academic atmosphere is valuable, first-year and transfer applicants are encouraged to visit the campus and meet with an
admissions counselor. Arrangements may be made to meet
with a member of the faculty and to attend classes when
school is in session.
Augsburg’s undergraduate admissions staff is ready to
help students and families with college planning. Call any
weekday between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.—612-330-1001
or toll-free 1-800-788-5678. We’ll answer your questions
and arrange a tour for you (including most Saturday mornings during the school year). The Office of Undergraduate
Admissions is located on the first floor of the Christensen
Center and serves traditional and non-traditional students.
Application Procedures
Day College First-years
Application for Admission—Applicants should complete the
application for admission and the essay and return them to
the Office of Undergraduate Admissions together with the
non-refundable $25 application fee. Students may apply
online for free at www.augsburg.edu/day/apply.html.
Transcripts—An official transcript from the high school is
required of first-year applicants. First-year applicants who are
still high school students at the time of application should
have their most recent transcript sent, followed by a final,
official transcript upon graduation. If the student has taken
college courses, an official transcript from the institutions
should also be sent. General Education Development (GED)
scores may be presented instead of the high school transcript.
Test Scores—First-year applicants are required to submit
results from a college entrance examination. The American
College Test (ACT) is preferred; results from SAT are also
accepted. Test scores recorded on the official high school
transcript are sufficient. Augsburg strongly recommends
completing the writing portion of either the ACT or SAT.
Recommendations—Two letters of academic recommendation are required. If the applicant has been out of school
for several years, a letter may be submitted by a supervisor,
employer, pastor, or co-worker.
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 an admissions counselor.
On occasion, the Admissions Committee may defer a
decision on a candidate’s admission until other information
has been received. For example, more recent test scores,
results of the present semester’s coursework, additional letters of recommendation, or writing samples may be requested
by the committee. If any additional credentials are needed,
the Office of Undergraduate Admissions will inform the
candidate.
Notification of Admissions Decision—Augsburg College uses a
“rolling” admissions plan. The first offers of admission are
made in mid-September. After that, 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.
Confirmation of Admission—Accepted students are asked to
make a $150* enrollment deposit to the Office of Under
graduate Admissions. Those students who wish to live in
College housing must also submit a $200 nonrefundable
housing deposit along with the housing contract to the
Residence Life Office.
*Nonrefundable after May 1.

it along with the $25 nonrefundable application fee to the

if admission to the major is required.
Transfer Students
A cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.50 (on
a 4.0 scale) in previous college work is recommended for
admission to the College. No student who falls below the
standards for automatic admission to the College will be considered for admission by the Admissions Committee after the
month prior to the start of the term. Information regarding
transfer credit policies is found in the Academic Information
section of the catalog, beginning on page 36.
Former Students
Day students who have interrupted attendance at Augsburg
College for one semester or more, and WEC/United/

Other Special Fees (Nonrefundable)
All students receive financial help indirectly, since a quality
liberal arts education costs more than tuition and fees cover.
The College raises that difference in gifts—from alumni,
faculty, staff, parents, churches, friends, foundations, and
endowment income.
However, the primary responsibility for paying for a college education rests on students and their families. Financial
aid is intended to supplement those resources.

Payments
Day college
Semester Fees—Prior to the start of each semester a statement of estimated charges showing basic charges and financial aid credits designated by the Student Financial Services
Office is sent to the student.
Payment Options—Augburg College offers payment plan
options for Day Program students. Information about payment plan options is mailed annually to each student’s
permanent address.
Weekend College
A statement of tuition and fee charges and estimated financial
aid will be mailed to each registered student prior to the start
of each term. For tuition and fee information, please refer to
the financial aid website.
Payment Options—(1) Payment in full at the start of each
term. (2) Employer Reimbursement: Students on this plan
must file an employer reimbursement application form
each academic year, prior to the start of the first class. Once
enrolled in the employer reimbursement payment plan,
students have until 60 days after the end of each term to pay
their term costs in full. There is a $20 per term fee associated
with this payment option. The student is responsible for payment of the balance should the employer not reimburse for
any reason. If the employer offers partial reimbursement, the
non-reimbursed portion of tuition and fees must be paid in
full at the start of the term. (3) Students may also defer payment by enrolling in the College’s third party payment plan
or in a military payment plan if their term costs are to be covered by a third party or through V.A. education benefits, such
as the G.I. Bill. (more details can be found at www.augsburg.
edu/enroll/accounts.html)
Financial Policies
A finance charge is applied at a simple rate of .67 percent per
month on any account with an open balance of 30 days or
more.
Registration is permitted only if the student’s account
for a previous term is paid in full or if the student is making
scheduled payments in accordance with an approved payment plan.
Augsburg College will not release student academic transcripts or graduation diplomas/certificates until all student
accounts are paid in full or, in the case of student loan funds
administered by the College (Federal Perkins Student Loan),
are current according to established repayment schedules and
the loan entrance and exit interviews have been completed.
Refunds
Students who withdraw from Augsburg College may be
eligible for a refund of a portion of their charges based on the
appropriate refund schedule. Financial aid may be adjusted
for those students who withdraw from the College or drop
course(s) and receive financial assistance.
Students who wish to withdraw from Augsburg should
complete the Withdrawal from College form available
online through the registrar’s website. It must be filled out
completely, signed and turned in to the Enrollment Center.
Students who properly withdraw or change to part-time, who
are dismissed, or who are released from a housing contract
will have their accounts adjusted for tuition and/or room
(except for the minimum deduction of $100 to cover administrative costs) in accordance with the terms of their housing
contract and/or the appropriate tuition refund schedule.
Students are responsible for canceling courses through
the Enrollment Center (or online) in order to be eligible for
any refund. Students who unofficially withdraw (stop attending) but do not complete the drop/add form are responsible
for all charges. Financial aid may be adjusted based on the
student’s last recorded date of attendance. Refund calculations are based on the date that the drop/add form is processed.
The Augsburg College Refund Policy for Day, Weekend, Rochester,
Bloomington, and Graduate Studies.
The refund schedule is based on the percentage of class time
remaining on the date of the student’s official withdrawal
from class. This applies to all students who drop one or more
courses during each term.

College Refund Policy stated above.
Students may appeal refund decisions through the
Financial Petition Committee. Petition forms are available
online through the registrar’s website.
Medical refund
If a student is forced to withdraw from one or more courses
in a term due to illness or an accident, the refund will
include the normal refund percentage (based on the regular
refund schedule), plus one-half of the remaining tuition
and fees. This extra medical refund will be considered upon
submission of documentation from the attending doctor, on
letterhead, verifying the medical circumstances. Requests
for medical refunds should be made through the Financial
Petition Committee.
Unofficial Withdrawal
Federal regulations require that records of financial aid recipients who earn failing grades in all their classes be reviewed.
If courses are not completed (e.g. unofficial withdrawal,
stopped attending), the College is required to refund financial aid to the appropriate sources according to federal or
Augsburg refund policies based on the last recorded date of
attendance. Students are responsible for the entire cost of the
term including the portion previously covered by financial
aid should they stop attending. Students are strongly urged
to follow guidelines for complete withdrawal from college.
If there are extenuating circumstances, a petition to have
the cost of tuition refunded can be made. Petition forms are
available online through the registrar’s website.
A student who registers, does not attend any classes, and
does not withdraw may petition to withdraw retroactively.
The student must petition within six months of the end of
term and provide proof of non-attendance. Proof can include,
but is not limited to, statements from each instructor that the
student never attended, or documentation of attendance for
the term at another college or university. If approved, grades
of W will be recorded and charges for the term dropped. The
administrative cancellation fee is $300.

Financial Aid
All students who wish to be considered for financial assistance
must establish financial aid eligibility on an annual basis. This
includes completing the application process as outlined below
and making satisfactory academic progress. In order to maintain eligibility in financial aid programs, students must make
satisfactory academic progress toward the attainment of their
degree or certificate as stipulated in the College catalog and as
published on the Academic Progress Standards for Financial
Aid Recipients webpage www.augsburg.edu/finaid/sap.html.
Financing higher education could be the most significant
investment a person or family makes in a lifetime. Proper
planning and wise choices are important, not only in choosing
a college, but also in the methods used to pay for it. Augsburg
College, through its Enrollment Center, will help students and
their families protect access to a quality Augsburg education
in a time of increasing financial challenge.
Financial assistance awarded through Augsburg may be
a combination of scholarships, grants, loans, and part-time
work opportunities. The College cooperates with federal,
state, church, and private agencies in providing various aid
programs. During the 2009-2010 academic year, more than
eight out of ten students at Augsburg received financial
assistance.
The primary responsibility for financing a college education rests upon the student and family. Financial aid supplements student and family resources.
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA),
current tax documents, and the Augsburg Aid form help
determine the amount of assistance for which a student is
eligible. This analysis takes into account such family financial
factors as current income, assets, number of dependent family members, other educational expenses, debts, retirement
needs, and special considerations.
How to Apply
The following are required to process your financial aid
application:
1. Be admitted to Augsburg as a regular student or be a
returning student in good academic standing with the
College.
2. Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA) or the Renewal FAFSA. Students are encouraged
to file the FAFSA electronically online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Students and their parents may sign the FAFSA electronically
using a PIN issued by the U.S. Department of Education.
Instructions for requesting a PIN can be found at www.fafsa.
ed.gov. Be sure to include the Augsburg College code, 002334,
on your application. Submit your application to the processing agency after January 1. Applications must be filed by
March 1 for priority consideration.

Center.
Financing Your Education
4. Submit copies of federal 1040 tax forms for the preceding year (e.g. tax year 2009 to be considered for financial aid

responsible for all interest. The borrower may choose to
make payments while in school or may defer payments and
allow interest to accrue and be capitalized (added to the balance of the loan).

Student Life
Student Life
Student Life
Augsburg’s mission focuses on student learning in the broadest sense. Experiences in the classroom are an important part
of college life, but learning and development also occur in
formal and informal activities of the College and the metropolitan area. Whether students are residents or commuters, the climate for learning and living at Augsburg will add
dimension to their education.
Campus Ministry
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. Weekend College Chapel is
held each Saturday morning when classes meet. 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, associate 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.
Vocation
Augsburg College has a deep and long-standing commitment to the theological concept of vocation—the idea that all
people can use their individual gifts to serve God’s purposes
in the world and that each person’s contribution is uniquely
valuable.
In the spring of 2002, with the generous support of
the Lilly Endowment, Augsburg created a program called
Exploring Our Gifts that was designed to help students,
staff, and faculty explore the connections between faith,
learning, service, and work. Over the years, the program has
26
I Augsburg College 2010-2011
helped embed vocational themes into the curriculum and
has sponsored a wide variety of short-term projects that offer
rich opportunities for reflection on how to live with purpose
and meaning. These ongoing projects include internships at
nonprofit organizations, off-campus service projects, international seminars, vocation-themed chapel presentations, interfaith forums, vocation retreats, and scholarships for students
interested in exploring service to the community, ministry, or
church leadership.
Because Exploring Our Gifts will end in the summer
2010, the College recently created a permanent center—the
Augsburg Center for Faith and Learning—that will keep
vocation at the core of Augsburg’s vision well into the future.
This new center will continue many of the current initiatives
and will carry on the work of promoting discovery of gifts
and discernment of calling among the students, faculty, and
staff at Augsburg as well as members of the larger community.
For further information on how to participate in
Augsburg’s vocation programming, visit the Lilly Resource
Center, Memorial Hall, room 231, or the Augsburg Center for
Faith and Learning, Oren Gateway Center, room 106.
Student Government
The Augsburg Day Student Government and the Augsburg
for Adults/Weekend and Evening College Student Senate
organizations support and advocate for student concerns,
needs, and activities. These student government groups serve
as the primary voice and liaison between students and the
administration, faculty, and staff of Augsburg College.
Campus Activities and Orientation
Campus Activities and Orientation (CAO) strives to create
innovative programming that fosters individual and community development and creates an environment where students
can connect, engage, and invest in the Augsburg community.
CAO programming works to enhance and supplement the
liberal arts instruction at Augsburg College through quality
transitional programs for new students as well as through
leadership education. CAO is made up of five program areas.
These include:
Campus Activities—CAO offers several programs and activities throughout the academic year designed to connect and
engage students with the Augsburg community, as well as
with the broader Twin Cities community.
LBGTQIA Services—LBGTQIA Services works to improve
the campus environment for all students, staff, faculty, and
visitors at Augsburg College by developing and supporting
inclusive understandings of gender and sexuality, as well as
fostering a community that honors and affirms the wholeness
of all identities.
Student Life
Student and Group Leadership Development—
Emerging Leaders Program (ELP)—ELP is an initiative designed to develop new leadership at Augsburg.
Emerging leaders learn skills necessary to be effective in
leadership roles through intentional learning opportunities and relationships with upper class mentors.
Student Group Development—CAO provides student
groups with advising and skill-building workshops
focusing on recruitment, event planning, meeting facilitation, conflict resolution, and other pertinent areas of
development.
Orientation Programs—
SOAR—SOAR is a required two-day, overnight orientation experience for incoming first-year day students which is designed to help with the transition to
Augsburg College. Students will meet fellow classmates,
faculty, and staff; learn about college resources and
services; obtain fall semester schedules; and get a taste of
life on campus.
Parent SOAR—Parent SOAR is an optional two-day
orientation experience for the parents and guardians of
first-year day students that runs concurrently with the
students’ SOAR session. Parents will obtain important
information about the campus, meet fellow parents, faculty, and staff; learn about college resources and services;
and get a taste of what life will be like for their students
on campus.
TRANSFER-mation—TRANSFER-mation is a required halfday orientation experience for transfer students designed
to help with the transition to Augsburg College. Students
will learn about college resources and services, hear
about academic programs, and discover why being a part
of the Augsburg community is so rewarding.
Auggie Days—Auggie Days is a required on-campus
orientation experience for incoming first-year day students that is designed to complement SOAR. It provides
opportunities to enhance academic and personal success
and offers a helpful advantage in starting at Augsburg
College.
Student Center
The Christensen Center, the Augsburg student union, serves
students, faculty, staff, alumni, and guests. Traditionally considered the “living room” of the campus, the student union
provides a central gathering place for the diverse populations
of residential, commuter, Weekend College, and graduate
students at Augsburg through the merging of curricular and
co-curricular programs and activities.
The Christensen Center also houses several student
services, such as Undergraduate and Graduate Admissions,
Campus Activities and Orientation, Event and Conference
Planning, the Copy Center, Shipping and Receiving, the
Information Desk, A’viands Food Services, Mail Services, the
A-Club Grille, and Cooper’s Coffee Shop.
The Auggies Nest, located on the ground floor of the
Christensen Center, serves as the student group office area
and houses the Augsburg Day Student Government and
Augsburg for Adults/Weekend and Evenings College office,
the ECHO (campus newspaper) office, the Augsburgian
(student yearbook) office, and the KAUG (campus radio)
office. Cubicles, lockers, and additional work spaces are also
available in this area for student group use.
Fine Arts
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 oncampus workshops with visiting arts professionals.
Anne Pederson Women’s Resource Center
The Anne Pederson Women’s Resource Center at Augsburg
College offers a variety of programming for Augsburg students (women and men) and is a meeting place for students,
faculty, and staff alike. It houses a women’s studies library
(including current magazines), a seminar room for films and
discussions, and a lounge space for studying, relaxing, and
just hanging out. The Women’s Resource Center sponsors
numerous programs and activities (including regular social
times, Feminist Film Fridays, spa days at the end of each
semester, and the Koryne Horbal Convocation Lecture), and
provides a safe place on campus for discussions, explorations, and women’s advocacy. The resource center is located
in Sverdrup Hall 207.

Sports and recreation—At Augsburg, sports are for all students
as well as the intercollegiate athlete. The campus offers on
a space-available basis a double-rink ice arena, gymnasium,
tennis courts, a fitness center with workout machines and

Gage Center for Academic Achievement
The Gage Center assists all Augsburg students in setting and
achieving optimal academic goals here at the College and
beyond. The center consists of five collaborating units:
Academic Advising—Academic Advising orients new Day and
Weekend College undergraduate students to the academic
policies and procedures of the College and assists students
on initial course selection. This office also provides interpretation of core curriculum requirements, administers entrylevel skill assessments, interprets graduation requirements,
provides degree-planning materials, and answers questions
on student academic progress. Academic Advising functions
as a supplement to the faculty advising system at Augsburg
College, and is located in the Enrollment Center.
All current students are assigned to a faculty adviser.
Prior to the end of their sophomore year, when they have
completed 12 or more credits, students are required to
declare their major and select a faculty adviser. Majors and
minors are declared online through Augnet Records and
Registration. Students select a faculty adviser from their
major area of study using the declaration form. All Day students are required to meet with their assigned faculty adviser
each term prior to registration. Both Day and weekend
college students are encouraged to meet with their faculty
adviser as often as is necessary.
Center for Learning and Adaptive Student Services (CLASS)—The
Center for Learning and Adaptive Student Services (CLASS)
provides individualized accommodations and academic
support for students with documented learning, attentional,
psychiatric, and other cognitive disabilities. CLASS has been
recognized as a leader in its field, helping these students gain
full access to the College curriculum. Its mission is a reflection of Augsburg’s commitment to providing a rigorous and
challenging, yet supportive, liberal arts education to students
with diverse backgrounds, preparations, and experiences.
Each term disability specialists work directly with
students to discuss their disabilities and determine a plan
for academic access. Typically, meetings are held weekly and
discussions may include:
• Accommodations for testing and coursework (e.g.,
extended time, note-taking)
• Referrals to other campus resources (e.g., tutoring, general
technology assistance, academic advising, counseling,
financial aid)
• Training and use of assistive technology through the
Groves Computer Laboratory
28
I Augsburg College 2010-2011
• Assistance with academic, organizational, and time management skills
CLASS specialists may also consult with instructors, academic advisers, and other members of the College faculty,
staff, or administration to support each student as they work
toward success. Taking advantage of those opportunities,
however, remains the student’s responsibility.
These services are available to any Augsburg student
who establishes eligibility by submitting appropriate documentation to the CLASS office. A copy of the Guidelines for
Documentation of a Disability can be obtained by contacting
the CLASS Office. CLASS also provides informal screenings
for students who suspect they may have a learning-related
disability. These screenings are meant only to help students
determine whether they should seek a thorough evaluation
by a qualified professional.
These services are made possible in part through endowment support provided by the Gage family and the Groves
Foundation.
Academic Skills Office (ASO)—
The Academic Skills Office provides comprehensive academic
support (e.g. time management, note-taking, reading, testing, motivation/procrastination) for all Augsburg students
through individual and group appointments. In addition, the
academic skills coaches address affective needs and aid in
the transition to college life. Coaches also refer students to
campus resources.
The Academic Skills Office coordinates several programs
to support students:
• Tutoring/Supplemental Instruction Services: ASO coordinates free tutoring for most classes and supplemental
instruction in specific courses.
• Conditional Admit Program (CAP): A limited number
of students are admitted conditionally through the CAP
program. Students must fulfill CAP requirements or they
will be continued in the CAP program or dismissed. See
the “Academic Progress, Probation, and Dismissal” section
of the catalog for a description of dismissal procedures.
• Probation Advising: Students placed or continued on
probation are required to meet with an approved academic
advocate. Registration is prevented until the student
completes the probation requirements as specified by their
academic advocate. Students who do not meet with their
academic advocate and/or do not fulfill the probation
requirements will be continued on probation or dismissed.
See the “Academic Progress, Probation, and Dismissal”
section of the catalog for a description of dismissal procedures.
• Augsburg Advantage at St. Kates (AASK): The Augsburg
College Admissions Committee selects students for the
AASK program, based on their application for admission
to Augsburg. The AASK program is a collaborative effort
between St. Catherine University (St. Kate’s) and Augsburg
to assist students in the transition from high school to
Student Life
college with specific courses and supportive programming.
The program provides participants with the opportunity to
complete similar coursework that first year students complete
at Augsburg. Students attend courses on the Minneapolis
campus of St. Catherine University and have access to both
campuses for support, resources, and activities.
Upon successful completion, students are guaranteed sophomore status (minimum of 7 course credits) and will have
fulfilled many of the first-year Augsburg requirements.
In order to complete the program, students are
required to:

together to form a community in which recovery is celebrated as a normal part of personal growth. Many of the
friendships and bonds students form while participating in
the StepUP program last a lifetime.
In order to qualify for the program students must be
committed to a 12-step abstinence-based recovery program,
have a minimum of six months of continuous sobriety, agree

Student Life
Residence Life Program
Students who choose to make Augsburg their home find a
friendly, 23-acre village in the midst of a major metropolitan
area. They make many new friends among roommates and
classmates. They are just steps away from Lindell Library,
classrooms, Hoversten Chapel, the ice arena, fitness center,
and Christensen Center. With just over 1,000 students living
on campus, most students and faculty greet each other by
name.
Augsburg recognizes the importance of the residential
experience during the college years. Studies show that students who live on campus are more likely to persist academically, to be involved on campus, and tend to have a slightly
higher grade point average. Department of Residence Life
staff are professional and student team members available to
support students in their academic and co-curricular experiences. Through their efforts residential community members
become acquainted with life at Augsburg through educational
and social opportunities.
Living on campus offers many opportunities for learning, leadership, and fun. Numerous events are planned to
welcome students to the community, including dances, movie
nights, open mic nights, and weeks devoted to special themes
or issues.

College Policies
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 academic honesty, disciplinary action, and grievances. These are
in the Student Guide.
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 and that are maintained in the registrar’s office and
the placement office, and to challenge inaccurate or misleading information.
Information on these policies is found in the Student
Guide available on the website at www.augsburg.edu/
studentguide.
Official Notices
Students will receive official notices via the student campus
mail system (student campus box), the A-Mail publication,
and the student’s Augsburg e-mail account. Students should
check their campus mailbox and their student e-mail account
regularly. The A-Mail is a daily online publication on Inside
Augsburg.
Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of
1974, as amended, provides certain rights to students regarding their education records. Each year Augsburg is required
to give notice of the various rights accorded to students pursuant to FERPA. A copy of Augsburg’s policy is published in
this catalog on page 62 and in the Student Guide distributed
annually to students.
Augsburg College understands that no information other
than “directory information” can be released without the
written permission of the student, except in limited circumstances. Students must give permission in writing for educational information to be released to anyone outside of the
official personnel (faculty and administration) at Augsburg.
This means that faculty or others cannot write letters of
support/recommendation or nominate students for awards
unless explicit written permission is given by the student to
release non-“directory information.” It is not sufficient to ask
for letters of recommendation.
Complete information about Augsburg’s procedures with
regard to FERPA are available from the Office of the Registrar.

Academic Information
Academic Information
Academic Information
Augsburg College constructs its curriculum upon the premise that students must be educated intellectually, spiritually,
and physically. To act effectively, human beings must have a
broad grasp of the world from which they have come as well
as the world in which they live. By providing courses in the
humanities, fine arts, natural sciences, and social sciences,
the general education curriculum introduces students to the
breadth and complexity of knowledge and culture.
Required Search for Meaning courses are designed to
acquaint students with the Christian tradition, introduce
them to other faith traditions, and encourage them to
reflect upon the importance and meaning of spirituality in
their lives. Recreation courses offer students opportunities
to develop skills for participation in exercise and sporting
activities.
Students choose from more than 50 major areas of study
to gain a depth of knowledge in a discipline and to prepare
for a career or further study. Thus, through a balance of curricular activities supported by full programs in student life
and religious life, an Augsburg College education strives to
educate its students in a real world for the real world.
Degrees Offered
Augsburg offers the bachelor of arts, the bachelor of music,
and the bachelor of science degrees. Augsburg also offers the
master of arts (in leadership, nursing, and education), the
master of business administration, the master of science (in
physician assistant studies), the master of social work, and
the doctor of nursing practice degrees.
Academic Calendar
The Augsburg day program follows the semester calendar,
with fall and spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks.
Full-time students normally take four course credits each
semester.
The day program calendar is coordinated with those of
the four other colleges of the Associated Colleges of the Twin
Cities, so students can take a course on another campus during the regular term.**
Weekend College classes typically meet on alternate
weekends and the program follows a trimester calendar.
Some classes may meet on weekday evenings. The fall trimester is held from early September through mid-December.
Winter trimester meets from January through early April.
Spring classes are held from mid-April through the end of
June. There are 7-8 class sessions each trimester, and classes
meet on weekends for 3.5 to 4 hours. (Refer to the program
schedule for weekday evening meeting times.) Students may
take from one to four classes each term.**
The Rochester campus operates on a trimester calendar.
Classes are held on weekday evenings and meet alternate

begins in September, winter trimester begins in January, and
spring trimester begins in April. There are 7-8 class sessions
each trimester with each class meeting for 3-1/2 to 4 hours.
Students may take one to four classes each term.**
**See Registration on page 48 and Calendars on page 6
Courses and majors offered through Weekend College
and the Rochester campus are the same as their Day College

Faculty
The heart of any educational institution is its faculty.
Augsburg College is particularly proud of the excellence and
commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold a doctorate
or the highest degree in their field, and all consider teaching
to be the focus of their activity. Faculty are also involved in
a variety of professional and research activities that support
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. Every first-year is assigned an Augsburg
Seminar adviser and, later, chooses a major adviser. In this
close interaction, faculty act as both mentors and models for
students.
Library and Information Technology
Services
The James G. Lindell Family Library opened in 1997. The
four-level, 73,000-square-foot facility houses all library and
information technology functions of the College. In addition
to the 190,000 volume main collection, the Lindell Library
includes special collections and archives, curriculum library,
a computer lab and student computing help desk, library
instruction classroom, and facilities for media viewing and
listening. Skyways link the library to Oren Gateway Center
and Sverdrup Hall.

assistance in research and the use of technology as well as
spaces for collaborative learning. In the Learning Commons
multimedia lab, students can create digital audio and visual
projects.
Professional Studies—Business administration, education,
health and physical education, nursing, social work.
Library Resources
Majors and Minors
Students can search a wide variety of local, regional, national,
and international databases. They have access to 190,000 volumes within Lindell Library and, through a daily courier service, to the library holdings of the seven private liberal arts
colleges in the Twin Cities. Lindell Library has a large collection of media resources. A service-oriented staff provides
students and faculty with research assistance and instruction
in the use of information resources. Arrangements are made
for access by students with physical limitation and special
needs.
Information Technology Resources
Augsburg College has built a reputation as a leader in its
commitment to provide students with the best access to
information technology and training. Visit the Student
Technology website, www.augsburg.edu/techdesk, for more
on Information Technology at Augsburg.
Computing
Students have access to more than 250 on-campus computers. There are both PC and Macintosh desktop computers
available in the Lindell Library Learning Commons and
computer lab and in the 24-hour Urness computer lab. The
College has six computer classrooms and 41 technologyenhanced classrooms. The circulation desk in the Lindell
Library has 40 wireless laptops available for use in the
Library.
Several computer clusters are available for more specific
student use within academic departments. A high-speed
fiber optic campus network provides access to AugNet
online services, printing, and to the Internet and Internet2.
Network-ready student machines can connect to the campus
network from dormitory rooms or any building on campus
using WiFi. All of the AugNet online services and several of
the registrar’s student services are available securely on and
off-campus.
Academic Organization and Programs
Divisions and Departments
The College curriculum is offered by 26 departments that are
grouped into three divisions for administrative and instructional purposes.
Fine Arts and Humanities—American Indian studies, art, communication studies, English, history, languages and crosscultural studies, music, philosophy, religion, theatre arts,
College librarians.
Natural and Social Sciences—Biology, chemistry, computer
Majors, or concentrations of study, may be within one department, within one division, or may cross academic disciplines.
Some students decide on a major or majors before they
enter college. Others explore a variety of disciplines before
deciding.
A major at Augsburg shall require no more than 13.0
credits from any one academic department. The Academic
Affairs Committee may amend this credit maximum in
support of industry or professional accreditation standards.
Students may complete non-required electives within the
department beyond the 13.0 credit limit.
The College requires students to declare a major by the
end of the sophomore year, and earlier in some disciplines.
Details of majors and minors are in the course description
section. Unless otherwise indicated, majors are part of the
bachelor of arts degree.
Students are not required to complete a minor for graduation; however, minors completed prior to graduation will be
listed on the transcript. Minors are not noted on the transcript if they are completed after a bachelor’s degree has been
awarded.
Student-Designed Major
Students may design their own major with the assistance and
approval of three advisers from relevant fields and subsequent final approval by the Augsburg College Academic
Affairs Committee (AAC). A student-designed major allows
flexibility in selecting major courses. Any student wishing
to design a major must complete a proposal, submit it with
approval and supporting letters from three faculty advisers,
and obtain AAC approval of the program. Students should
seek AAC approval as early as possible so that any changes
suggested by AAC may be incorporated into the design without affecting the student’s proposed completion date. The
deadline for initial submission of the program design to AAC
is the first term in which the student has achieved junior
status; the final version must be approved the term before the
student achieves senior status.
Students wishing to design majors must:
1. Develop the student-designed major in concert with three
faculty advisers from relevant fields, who together constitute
the Review Team. All advisers must sign the proposal cover
sheet and submit supporting letters of approval to AAC.
Supporting letters should assess both the student’s ability to
complete the proposed major and the validity and value of
the proposed major, including (in at least one of the letters)
the proposed capstone course. The advisers’ signatures and
supporting letters represent their approval of the program,
including the capstone course, and their commitment to
Augsburg College 2010-2011 I 37
Academic Information
oversee the student’s progress.
2. Develop a student-designed major program proposal that
includes:
a. A statement of learning goals and objectives.
b. A list of proposed courses (minimum of nine, no more
than one of which is a lower-level language course and at
least five of which are upper division) and a discussion of
how the courses are related to the program goals. Indicate
how the proposed courses collectively support a specialized
and cohesive plan usually associated with a college major.
Proposals must include research describing comparable
programs of study at a minimum of three other academic
institutions. In addition, students should consult with the
Strommen Career and Internship Center for additional
information regarding career objectives. The proposal should
provide information showing how the Augsburg Core
Curriculum requirements (including graduation skills) are to
be fulfilled.
c. A description of the student-designed major capstone to be
taken sometime during the senior year. The student should
devise the capstone in consultation with advisers. It should
require an integrative project/paper that draws together the
coursework up to that point and/or prepares one for further
study. In addition, at least one of the advisers must specifically address the rationale for the proposed capstone in his
or her supporting letter, though approval of the studentdesigned major program by all advisers presumes their
approval of the capstone course.
3. Submit the completed proposal and supporting documentation to the dean’s office.
If AAC approves the proposed major program, the student will be expected to complete the program designed and
still meet all of the other Augsburg degree requirements as
stated in the college catalog.
Students who design their own majors will meet with
their advisers regularly throughout the design and subsequent evaluation of their program. Changes in the approved
student-designed major may be made through the normal
petition process to the Student Standing Committee with
adviser approval.
ACTC Majors—It is possible for full-time day students to
complete other majors through the Associated Colleges of the
Twin Cities (ACTC). Students who wish to complete a major
or minor offered at one of the other ACTC colleges must submit a completed ACTC Major or Minor Declaration Form to
the Augsburg registrar’s office. This form must list all ACTC
courses required and be signed by the ACTC school adviser.
Some majors may not be available or may have a competitive
application process with acceptance determined by the major
department.
Weekend College is not part of the ACTC consortium,
and weekend students may not register for ACTC courses
or complete ACTC majors under the terms of the ACTC
consortium agreements.

Other Study Programs
Teaching Licensure
Several teaching licensure programs are offered at Augsburg.
Licensure is available in kindergarten-elementary or K-6
license. A middle school endorsement is available in one of
the following: mathematics, science, communication arts/
literature, social studies. A preprimary endorsement (3- to
5-year-olds) is also available. Licensure is also available in
the following middle school/high school fields: life sciences,
chemistry, communication arts/literature, health, mathematics, physics, and social studies. This license prepares people
to teach in grades 5-12. Students seeking licensure in one
of these areas obtain an appropriate subject area major and
complete secondary licensure coursework. Specialist licenses
are available in art (K-12), vocal music and instrumental
music (K-12), and physical education (K-12). The licenses
prepare people to teach in grades K-12. Students seeking
licensure in one of these areas also obtain the appropriate
subject area major and complete the secondary licensure
coursework. (See Department of Education on page 117 and
subject area departments for more information.)
K-12 special education majors and licenses in
Emotional/Behavioral Disabilities and in Learning Disabilities
are also available. These majors and licenses are offered only
through Weekend College.
Students seeking elementary licensure and special
education licensure have education department advisers.
Students seeking 5-12 and K-12 licensure have advisers in
their subject area major and in the education department. It
is very important that students work closely with their advisers throughout their programs.
Certificate Programs
Augsburg offers undergraduate certificates through the
departments of Art and Business Administration (see departments and programs section on page 64). Certificates are
available to non-degree seeking students or students who are
completing a degree from a different academic department.
A student may declare degree seeking status after earning a
certificate.
Pre-Professional Programs
Students who plan to enter the fields of law, medicine, dentistry, ministry, veterinary science, pharmacy, or engineering
can profit from a liberal arts education at Augsburg.
It is recommended that requirements for admission to
graduate schools or seminaries be reviewed and the course
of study at Augsburg planned accordingly. A faculty adviser
is available in each field to assist students in their planning.
Students who want to plan a pre-professional program should
contact Academic Advising prior to or early in their first year
to arrange for faculty advising.
Pre-Dentistry—These courses are recommended to fulfill the
minimum requirements of the School of Dentistry at the
Academic Information
University of Minnesota: ENL 111, 220; BIO 151, 152, 253,
369; CHM 115, 116 (or 105, 106), 351, 352; MAT 114 or
163; PHY 121, 122; PSY 105. Requirements at other universities may vary.
Pre-Engineering—See engineering degree and major requirements on page 126.
Pre-Law—Students considering a career in law should examine the handbook published by the Association of American
Law Schools. Students may wish to take law-related courses
to help determine their interest in law. Pre-law students
should major in a discipline of their own choosing; most law
school entrance requirements will be satisfied with a record
of solid achievement coupled with an acceptable LSAT score.
Pre-Medicine—A major in chemistry and biology is not
required in order to apply to medical schools, but many
students with an interest in the health sciences choose to
major in these fields. The competitive candidate typically
has substantially more training than the minimal course
requirements. Students should review requirements and
recommended courses of each program being considered
for application and consult early and frequently with a prehealth science adviser. Coursework that is required by most
medical schools includes: one to two semesters of English
composition such as ENL 111, 220; CHM 115, 116 (or 105,
106); CHM 351, 352; BIO 151, 152, 253, 369; MAT 145, 146,
163; PHY 121, 122. Courses recommended in preparation for
MCATs: BIO 355, 473, 476; CHM 361.
universities may vary.
Honors Program
The Augsburg Honors Program offers an adventurous education where students with a passion for ideas can be their best.
We offer a friendly and welcoming atmosphere for students
committed to an exceptional higher education.
Augsburg’s Honors Program is unlike any other honors
program in the nation because it gives students the resources
and freedom to build their own ideal higher education.
Students have the opportunity to create their own courses,
edit and write for the Augsburg Review of Undergraduate
Scholarship, participate in an intramural debate league,
belong to an Honors House, and learn through small reading
groups, research projects, and travel around the world.
Each Honors course has been specifically created for
Honors students, and includes a challenging “signature experience” such as writing a play, putting great books on trial,
or attending music, theatre, and art performances. Honors
courses bring in professors from several different departments so you can learn from talented professors teaching
their specialties.
For information, contact Robert C. Groven, Honors
Program director, at honors@augsburg.edu. Also see the
Honors Program in the departments and programs section on
page 148.
Pre-Occupational Therapy, Pre-Physician Assistant, and PrePhysical Therapy—Coursework in preparation for these
programs should be discussed with a faculty member in the
Department of Biology.
Pre-Pharmacy—Augsburg has a program designed to fulfill
minimum requirements of the College of Pharmacy at the
University of Minnesota: BIO 151, 353, 476; CHM 115,

Academic Information
Inter-Institutional Programs
Augsburg cooperates with other colleges and institutions in
the Twin Cities area on several programs.
Cooperating Libraries in Consortium (CLIC)—Through CLIC, the
Twin Cities private colleges library consortium, the Augsburg
community has direct access to over 2,500,000 volumes and
media resources.
Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities (ACTC)—Full-time day
students at Augsburg and the St. Paul colleges and universities of Hamline, Macalester, St. Catherine, and St. Thomas
may elect to take one course each semester (fall and spring)
at one of the other campuses. No additional fee is required
for such an exchange, except for private instruction in music
or approved independent studies. Exchange courses are not
transfer courses, and thus courses taken through ACTC are
considered Augsburg College courses and do not impact the
residency requirement. The permanent record of courses for
which a student has cross-registered is kept in the Office of
the Registrar at Augsburg College, not the host ACTC institution. Students may elect to participate in the cooperative
program to gain new perspectives, to get better acquainted
with the other schools, or to undertake a specific course or
major not offered on the home campus. A regularly scheduled
bus shuttles students between the campuses.
Weekend College is not part of the ACTC consortium,
and weekend students may not register for ACTC courses or
complete ACTC majors under the terms of the ACTC consortium agreements.
Higher Education Consortium for Urban Affairs (HECUA)—
Augsburg, in cooperation with 17 other colleges and universities, offers off-campus study semesters in Norway, Northern
Ireland, Latin America, and the Twin Cities. (See HECUA
programs on page 163.)
McNally Smith College of Music—Augsburg College fulltime students may elect to take one course each semester at
McNally Smith College of Music providing that they meet all
McNally Smith College of Music requirements. This program
is open to sophomores through seniors. There is no additional fee for this program. Students should consult with their
advisor to confirm if the classes will count toward graduation
requirements. In no instance may a McNally Smith course be
used as a substitute for any Augsburg course specifically listed
within a degree program.
Exchange courses are not transfer courses. Courses taken
through the Augsburg–McNally Smith exchange are considered Augsburg College courses and do not impact the residency requirement. The permanent record of courses which
a student has registered for through the exchange is kept in
the Office of the Registrar at Augsburg College, not McNally
Smith.
Air Force ROTC—Augsburg day students may participate in
the Air Force ROTC program at the University of St. Thomas
under the ACTC consortium agreement. Students are eligible
42
I Augsburg College 2010-2011
to compete for two- and three-year AFROTC scholarships.
ROTC credits serve as electives at Augsburg. For more
information, contact the Office of the Registrar, or call the
University of St. Thomas at 651-962-6320 or 1-800-328-6819,

Army ROTC—Augsburg day students may participate in the
Army ROTC program at the University of Minnesota under an
agreement between Augsburg, the University of Minnesota,
and the program. ROTC credits serve as electives at Augsburg.

Augsburg Abroad
Augsburg Abroad is the front door for students and faculty
interested in study abroad. Services include:
• Study abroad program selection advising
• Financial and academic advising for study abroad
• Registration and billing for study abroad
• Pre-departure and re-entry support (application, orientation, etc.)
• Faculty-led, short-term program coordination
About half of Augsburg undergraduate students are studying
abroad. Graduate students also find short-term programs as
part of their curriculum. Students abroad will find themselves
in a variety of locales and studying a variety of disciplines:
studying gender issues in Central America; acting with masks
in Norway; interning with community organizations in
Northern Ireland; studying political science in Namibia; learning about ecology in Tanzania; taking organic chemistry in
New Zealand; and learning a language where it is spoken.
Academic Requirements and Credit
Students fulfill the Augsburg Experience requirement on
approved programs. Courses taken abroad can also fulfill
graduation requirements including major, minor, language,
liberal arts foundation, lifetime activity, and internship
requirements. This is determined prior to departure when
students fill out the required Credit Agreement form that is
signed by academic advisers and appropriate staff and faculty
approving courses.
Students should be aware of the following policies related
to study abroad:
• Students can study abroad more than once.
• Students can study abroad at any point in their academic
career.
Semester and Summer Programs
• Courses taken on off-campus programs during the senior
year will meet the Augsburg residency requirement.
• You must take a full load of credits while abroad on semester programs.
• You must take courses A-F while abroad.
• Grades received on affiliated and non-Augsburg programs
are reported as transfer credit on your transcript, and thus
are not figured into your GPA.
Academic Information
• A “C” equivalent or higher must be received for the credit
to transfer to Augsburg.
Faculty-led Short-term Programs
• Students must register for all courses required by the shortterm program. Credit values may vary, so confirm the specific program credit load with the Augsburg Abroad Office.
Any courses removed by the student without Augsburg
Abroad permission prior to the start of the program will be
re-added to the student’s schedule. If no work was completed in these reinstated courses, a grade of zero will be
awarded.
• Overload Fee Exemption for faculty-led January and Spring
Weekend College (WEC) programs: January and spring
WEC faculty-led programs are placed within the spring
semester. However, full-time Day students will not be
billed an overload fee if an additional 4.0 or 4.5 credits are
taken in the regular spring term. A student taking minimal
credits in the spring can use the January or Spring WEC
faculty-led short-term program as a spring term course in
order to be considered part-time or full-time.
• Crossover Policy Exemption: The crossover policy does
not apply to study abroad students. WEC students who
do a study abroad program placed in the Day program do
not count that as their crossover course. The same policy
exemption is valid for Day students doing a study abroad
program scheduled in a WEC term.
Eligibility and Application
The following are Augsburg College’s requirements for study
abroad:
• Minimum 2.5 GPA at the time of application. Individual
programs may require a higher average. Students with
lower averages should consult with Augsburg Abroad.
• Be a sophomore, junior, or senior standing by the time you
study abroad. Short-term, faculty-led programs will allow
participation as a first-year if the student receives approval
from the faculty-leader.
• Transfer students must complete one semester at Augsburg
before they may study off campus.
• Not be on academic or disciplinary probation. Students
placed on academic or disciplinary probation after admittance to study abroad may be withdrawn from the program.
The student is responsible for all non-recoverable program
costs incurred.
• Not have an outstanding balance on your student account.
• Be aware that students applying to faculty-led programs,
who meet the above criteria, are accepted on a rolling basis;
space is limited on these programs so applying early is
important.
Application deadlines for semester programs are:
October 1: Spring semester study abroad and January
faculty-led programs
February 1: Spring WEC term and Summer Session
faculty-led programs
March 1: Fall semester and non-faculty led summer study
abroad programs
Program provider deadlines vary; students need to meet all
deadlines and eligibility requirements set by program providers. Students should start planning in their first year for study
abroad to be sure to do appropriate research and meet all
deadlines.
Students are accepted to study on faculty-led programs
on a first applied, first accepted basis.
ACCESS/CLASS Abroad
Students should be prepared for the fact that disability may
be culturally defined. Attitudes toward disability and levels
of accessibility can vary greatly from country to country.
The Americans with Disabilities Act mandates equal access
to university-sponsored programs and services to students
with disabilities. However, providing access by US standards
can present unique challenges in international settings. The
expectation on the part of US students and institutions is that
reasonable accommodations will be made. Depending on the
country and culture, there may be different ways to define
accessibility and different expectations in terms of accommodations that can or should be made. Students are encouraged
work closely with Augsburg Abroad/CLASS/ACCESS.
Students are responsible for requesting accommodations
abroad within a reasonable time frame prior to departure, ideally as early as program selection. Augsburg Abroad will work
closely with the student, CLASS, and /or ACCESS offices to
determine needs and make appropriate and possible accommodations abroad.
Costs and Financial Aid
The cost of study abroad is comprised of program fees that
generally include tuition, housing, international health insurance, some meals, excursions, and study abroad fees. These
costs vary from program to program. Augsburg College pays
the program provider on the student’s behalf and then bills
the Augsburg student account. This allows students to access
their financial aid for study abroad. Students will always pay a
minimum of Augsburg tuition when studying abroad.
Students who receive financial aid, scholarships, and/
or grants to study at Augsburg can use that entire package
to cover their study abroad program costs. Students receiving Augsburg institutionally-funded aid (e.g., Presidential,
Regents, Legacy, Promise and other Augsburg scholarships,
and tuition remission benefit) may use their scholarships
to study abroad multiple times on Augsburg Programs (see
below in Study Abroad Program section). However, institutionally-funded aid may be used only once toward study
abroad costs on an affiliate or non-Augsburg program. Cost
estimates for the time abroad are drawn up to assist the student in planning and the financial aid office in awarding aid to
students studying abroad.
Students are required to notify Augsburg Abroad immediately if they choose not to continue with their study abroad
experience. At the moment of notification non-recoverable
Augsburg College 2010-2011 I 43
Academic Information
costs will be assessed and charged to the student account.
Depending on the time of notification of withdrawal students
may owe nothing, the study abroad fee, the deposit, or some,
or all, of the program fee. Students are also subject to the cancellation and refund policies of their program provider.
Study Abroad Programs
Students have over 200 programs in over 90 countries from
which to choose. In addition to the below Augsburg College
programs, students can choose from affiliated program providers. These programs have been reviewed to meet the Augsburg
experience requirement, diverse needs of students, and provide quality student service. The programs are reviewed each
year.
If students cannot find a program that meets their needs
from the Augsburg College or Augsburg-affiliated options
then they can apply to do a non-Augsburg program. Students
with a strong academic or financial reason, faculty support
(as shown on the Credit Agreement form), and who choose a
good quality program, may be approved.
The Center for Global Education
The mission of the Center for Global Education at Augsburg
College is to provide cross-cultural educational opportunities
in order to foster critical analysis of local and global conditions so that personal and systemic change takes place leading
to a more just and sustainable world.
The center’s study programs are conducted in Central
America, Mexico, and Namibia. Students experience three
distinct types of living situations: living with other students
in a community house, spending several days in a rural
setting, and several weeks living with host families. In the
Mexico and Namibia programs, students travel together on
two-week seminars — from Mexico to Central America, and
from Namibia to South Africa. The cost of these programs is
equivalent to full tuition, room, and board for one semester
on campus, plus airfare. (Some travel scholarships are available for Augsburg students.)
Crossing Borders: Gender and Social Change in Mesoamerica
(Mexico)—Fall
Learn about the central issues facing Mesoamerica, with
emphasis on the experience and empowerment of women.
Students will engage in gender analysis of key social, economic, political, and cultural issues in Mexico and El
Salvador; explore the interconnectedness of race, class, and
gender; and learn first-hand from both women and men who
are involved in struggles for sustainable development and
social change. The program offers credit in religion, political
science, women’s studies, and Spanish. Internships and independent studies are also available in nine different disciplines.
The program includes a two-week educational seminar in El
Salvador, as well as rural travel within Mexico and four-day
seminar in Mexico City. Students stay in guest houses while
traveling, in Augsburg approximately six weeks, and with
Mexican host families for four to six weeks. Prerequisite: one

globalization, and decolonizing the mind, from the perspectives of the new democracies of southern Africa. Namibia won
its independence in 1990 after decades of apartheid under
South African colonization. South Africa had its first democratic election in 1994. As these nations struggle to build
nationhood and deal with the legacies of apartheid and colonialism, they are faced with the challenges posed by today’s

Divided States of Europe—Spring
Ten former communist nation-states have recently joined the
European Union. From three different locations – Norway,
Romania, and Hungary – students examine the complex
dynamics of European integration via issues such as labor
migration, minority politics, right-wing populism, prostitution, and human trafficking. Together, Hungary and Romania
encompass some of Europe’s most pressing social justice
issues and constitute its primary geographic and cultural
bridge between East and West.
Community Internships in Latin America: Ecuador—Fall and Spring

Clair and Gladys Strommen Career and
Internship Center
The Strommen Career and Internship Center is a comprehensive resource center emphasizing the importance and value
for all students to engage in internships, career development
and the exploration of vocation throughout their college
years. The integration of “knowing and doing” adds breadth
and depth to the curriculum and assists students in making
more informed academic and career decisions. The underlying assumption is that a liberal arts education is an effective
preparation for life, meaningful work, and active citizenship.
Career Services
Career Services provides opportunities, programs, and career
counseling to help students discover their unique gifts, talents, skills, and interests, explore career paths, and grapple
with questions of vocation and purpose in a changing world.
This process is viewed as an important part of a student’s
Augsburg College 2010-2011 I 45
Academic Information
development while attending college. To aid in this process,
professional career staff provide career assessments and individualized career planning and coaching. Staff assist students
with choosing majors, locating internships, preparing for
internship and job searches, graduate school applications,
and making connections to community, business, and alumni
resources.
Internships
Academic Credit
An internship for credit is a carefully planned, work- or
service-based learning experience where a student focuses
on specific learning objectives that connect concepts of the
major to the experience. 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. A learning agreement plan, negotiated with the faculty
supervisor and work supervisor, outlines the academic related
objectives, strategies, and evaluation methods for receiving
credit. Students often do internships in nonprofits, small and
large businesses, government agencies, museums, schools,
and churches.
Internships for credit are available in all majors and can
be taken during a semester, Weekend College trimester or
summer sessions. Inter-disciplinary (INS) internships are also
available. For extension of an internship beyond one term
see Evaluation and Grading on page 58. Internships can be
registered for 1 course credit or .5 credit. One course credit
involves a minimum time commitment of, on average, 10
hours per week or 140 total hours. Internships for .5 credit
require a minimum of 80 total hours. A maximum of four
courses of internship may count toward the total courses
required for the degree.
Internships completed off-campus for credit will
automatically fulfill the Augsburg Experience graduation
requirement.
Non-Credit and Transcript Notation
Non-credit internships related to a student’s major or career
interests can be registered for a zero-credit transcript notation.
The goal is for students to apply theory to practice in a work
setting and reflect on the experience. Work opportunities
typically are part-time during the academic year and/or full
time during summer and can begin and end anytime. Students
must set learning goals and evaluate their experience. The
director of the Strommen Career and Internship Center supervises non-credit internships and transcript notation work
experiences. Internships not for credit and transcript notations may be used to fulfill the Augsburg Experience graduation requirement.

Sabo Center for Citizenship and Learning
Service-Learning and Community Engagement/
Community Service-Learning
Augsburg’s Community Service-learning Program provides
students with opportunities to understand and respond to
needs in the city through course-embedded service experiences and civic engagement activities. A key component of
community-service-learning is reflection on and analysis of
community issues in order to promote personal and educational growth and civic responsibility. By connecting classroom content with service-learning experiences in the City,
Augsburg students deepen their understanding of abstract
course concepts while learning about pertinent and related
community issues. This dynamic and interactive educational
approach employs reciprocal learning between students and
their community. Service-learning components are embedded
in most academic disciplines.
Examples of community service-learning sites include:
homeless shelters, cultural and environmental organizations,
tutoring programs and literacy centers.
Campus Kitchen Project and Community Garden
The Campus Kitchen Project connects the campus community with the larger community by using food as a tool
to nourish bodies, develop leadership, and educate students
through service-learning. To accomplish these goals, three
separate programs exist:
1) FOOD TO SHARE—Surplus food from the Augsburg Dining
Service is donated, reheated and served by student volunteers
to neighborhood partners including: homeless shelters, youth
and senior programs, and others.
2) FOOD TO GROW—On the corner of campus, Augsburg staff
and students manage a community garden composed of 70
individual plots where community and campus members can
grow their own food. The garden staff also hosts classes on
healthy living in which neighborhood youth learn to grow
and cook healthy food.
3) FOOD TO BUY—A farmer’s market and CSA delivery is
available weekly at Augsburg College and the Brian Coyle
Community Center in order to increase access to healthy
foods. Surplus produce from the market and CSA shares are
donated to the Campus Kitchen meal delivery program.
Bonner Leader Program
In November of 2008-2009, Augsburg College launched its
first year of the Bonner Leaders program, funded through the
National Bonner Foundation. Through the Bonner program
at Augsburg, students develop deep community relationships
and engage in long-term policy advocacy throughout their
four years at Augsburg College. Those selected to be a part of
the Augsburg College Bonner Leaders program were largely
first-year students, with diverse ethnic and geographical backgrounds, and unique experience with community-leadership
Academic Information
roles. Through service placements with partner nonprofit
community organizations, students worked an average of 200
hours over the course of the academic year in placements
supporting ELL classrooms, running an employment education computer lab, helping coordinate a low-income housing
program, providing community health outreach, and working
with a financial literacy program. Beyond their work-study
service internships, students participated in at least 100 hours
of volunteer hours with various community initiatives and
civic engagement projects on campus.
Through their participation with the Bonner Leaders
program, students engaged in monthly guided reflections
and leadership development training. The Augsburg Bonner
Community Leaders program is a successful campus model
to build on the college’s culture of community and civic
engagement and bring together existing community service
programs to take us to the next level of deepening knowledge, reflection, and authenticity of civic engagement in the
community.
Augsburg Reads
The Augsburg Read Program is a federally funded literacy
and tutoring program focused on elementary student achievement. Augsburg Reads pairs college students with community

Graduate Programs
Augsburg College offers seven graduate degree programs:
Master of Arts in Education, Master of Arts in Leadership,
Master of Arts in Nursing, Master of Business Administration,
Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies, and Master
of Social Work. Consult the Augsburg Graduate Studies catalog for complete information.
The Master of Arts in Education offers initial licensure
coursework at the graduate level in elementary education,
secondary education, and special education: E/BD and LD.
The MAE also offers the pre-primary specialty and the K-12
Reading Teacher endorsement. Students are able to take up
to six licensure courses at the graduate level and complete
their licensure programs with a combination of graduate
and undergraduate coursework. Students can then apply
their graduate level licensure courses to complete a master’s
degree program. Students will complete their master’s degrees
through a combination of Master of Arts in Leadership coursework and graduate level education coursework. Licensed
teachers also can pursue special education: E/BD and/or LD,
as well as the K-12 Reading Licensure Endorsement and the
pre-primary endorsement at the graduate level. The program
is available through the Weekend College schedule, and the
admissions process begins with the Graduate Admissions
office. For further information about the programs, contact
the Education Department or the Graduate Admissions office.
The Master of Arts in Leadership is based on a liberal arts
approach to leadership studies. This cross-disciplinary program directs its academic content and pedagogical approaches
to situations, issues, and problems relevant to organizational
leaders. Augsburg’s program recognizes that today’s leaders
need a broad spectrum of abilities to provide them with a
more comprehensive understanding of their world. Designed
for working adults, the program offers courses primarily on
alternate Saturdays. There is also a Monday evening cohort
offering of the program at Augsburg’s Bloomington site.
(Note: A five-year program is available to Augsburg undergraduate accounting majors that would qualify them for CPA
certification and fulfill requirements for a BA in accounting
and an MA in leadership. See the Department of Business
Administration, accounting major section of the catalog for
further information.)
The Master of Arts in Nursing prepares nurses for transformational leadership and transcultural community health nursing practice across care settings, with emphasis on addressing
health inequities among diverse populations. The program is
offered within the context of a Christian liberal arts education. Graduates are eligible to apply for national certification in Advanced Community Health Nursing, or Advanced
Nursing Administration through the American Nurses
Credentialing Center (ANCC), and/or Advanced Certification
in Transcultural Nursing through the Transcultural Nursing
Society (TCNS). Classes meet on a flexible schedule (every
other week or once per month) that includes weekdays, weekday evenings, and Saturdays. Web-enhanced teaching is used
for all classes. Practicums include optional short-term study
abroad experiences. Students may choose to study in Mexico,
Guatemala; Namibia; Pine Ridge; S.Dak.; and/or Europe.
The Master of Arts in Nursing program is accredited by the
Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education in accordance
with its accreditation standards and procedures.
Streamlined entry into the Master of Arts in Nursing—Students
with an ADN and a bachelor’s degree in a field other than
nursing can enter the Master of Arts in Nursing program as a
“bridge student.” This process requires acceptance to the MA
program and completion of three courses in the Augsburg
undergraduate nursing program.
Students in good standing in the Augsburg undergraduate nursing program can enter the MA in nursing through an
“expedited” process. After successful application to the MA
program while still a student in the undergraduate program,
students can take three designated courses in the Master
of Arts in Nursing, which will be applied to the M.A. at
Augsburg upon successful completion of the undergraduate
nursing degree.
The Doctor of Nursing Practice is a post-master’s program
for registered nurses (RNs) who currently hold a master’s
degree in nursing. The DNP at Augsburg will prepare nurses
to guide system level changes that improve health outcomes
of persons underserved by the current health system. The
program emphasizes transcultural nursing leadership to

maximize health through peaceful, just, and collaborative
actions that uphold and improve human potential across
care settings with emphasis on health inequities in a global
context. In addition to emphasizing transcultural nursing, the
DNP curriculum also focuses on advanced community/public
health nursing and holistic health.
The Master of Business Administration is designed to give
students mastery of the skills and knowledge necessary to
advance in their careers and accept roles of greater responsibility in an organization. Meeting primarily on one evening
per week, this challenging program is designed to be completed in 23 months. Organized in cohort format, the program
encourages learning in a collaborative small-group environment and features a high level of interaction and attention
from the faculty. The program focuses on giving students the
ability to think critically and effectively manage in complex
environments. An intensive management consulting course
allows students to apply theory and classroom learning to an
actual business or organizational environment. Local businesses and organizations provide a laboratory for students as
they complete comprehensive projects in various disciplines
and functions.
The core program can be enhanced through participation
in a number of concentrations including finance, healthcare
management, human resource management, international
business, and marketing management.
The Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies is
designed for students interested in careers as healthcare providers. The mission of the program is based on a foundation
of respect and sensitivity for the cultures and backgrounds of,
and is oriented toward providing care to, underserved populations. Students are well educated in current medical theory
and practice in primary care medicine. All physician assistants
must have a supervising physician to practice. The program
is three years long with classes held Monday through Friday
during the day.
The Master of Social Work, accredited by the Council
on Social Work Education, prepares students for entering
advanced social work practice. The program builds on the
liberal arts base of the College and supports the College’s mission to nurture future leaders in service to the world.
There are two concentrations: multicultural clinical practice (MCCP) or program development, policy, and administration (PDPA). Students choose one of the two concentrations
for their program focus. The curriculum emphasizes work
with diverse and oppressed groups, social justice, leadership
for social change, and a holistic, strengths-based, problemsolving framework. Graduate social work classes meet in
four-hour blocks on Friday evenings, Saturday mornings, and
Saturday afternoons.
The multicultural clinical practice concentration prepares
students to work with diverse peoples across the full range
of contemporary clinical social work practice settings. The
program development, policy, and administration concentration prepares students to actively seek equality and justice for

Crossover Registration Policy
Every Augsburg undergraduate student is admitted to
a “home program,” either day, Weekend College, or the
Rochester Program. It is expected that students will complete
most of their degree requirements through their home program. However, full-time students may register for up to 1.0
credits per term outside their home program. Enrollment will
be based on class availability.
Students will be charged the rate of their home program
for courses in which they enroll outside their home program.
The rate will be based on the maximum credit load they are
carrying on any calendar date over the span of the two terms.
For example, a day program student taking 2.0 credits in the
day program, and 1.0 credits in the WEC program, will be
considered full-time and will be charged the full-time day
program tuition rate. A WEC student taking 2.0 credits in the
WEC program, and 1.0 credits in the day program, will pay
the WEC tuition rate x 3.0 credits.
Day students taking over 4.5 credits will pay the day
part-time rate for any credits over 4.5 in their combined day/
WEC load (Spring day term will include both winter WEC
and spring WEC). The maximum number of credits that may
be included in the day full-time tuition rate for students who
cross-register is 4.5.
Students have registration priority in their home program. Crossover registration dates are published on the registrar’s office webpage. There is a special crossover registration
form that must be processed at the Enrollment Center. This
registration option is not available by Web.
The WEC, Rochester, and Partner Hospitals programs
are not part of the ACTC (Associated Colleges of the Twin
Cities) tuition exchange program. WEC/Rochester/hospital
students may NOT cross over to attend ACTC courses.
Students must have completed their undergraduate
degree and be admitted to a graduate program before taking graduate level courses from that program. (An exception
is made for approved courses in the Department of Nursing
and the joint BA Accounting/MAL.) Undergraduate students
enrolled in graduate courses will pay the graduate rate for
those courses. Any student enrolled in an Augsburg graduate
level program wishing to take an undergraduate course will
pay the rate of the program in which the course is offered
(Day, WEC, or Rochester).
Change of Program
Students may apply to change their “home program” by filling
out a Change of Program form available at the Enrollment
Center. The change will take effect the following term.
Changes are limited to one each academic year. A Change
of Program form must be submitted before the term begins.
Students registered in spring Day may not do a change of
program into spring WEC.

I Augsburg College 2010-2011
Withdrawal from College
Students are urged not to abandon courses for which they are
registered because this will result in a failing grade on their
official academic record. Cancellation of courses or withdrawal
from College must be completed in the Enrollment Center.
A Withdrawal from the College form may be obtained at the
Enrollment Center or downloaded from the registrar’s webpage. The last day to file for a Withdrawal from College is
the last day of classes prior to finals week. Withdrawal from
college and any consequential adjustments in accounts are
effective as of the date the Withdrawal from College form is
returned to the registrar’s office. Students must be re-admitted
to the College when they are ready to resume their studies.
The Application for Readmission form is available from the
Enrollment Center or can be downloaded from the registrar’s
webpage.
Students are responsible for keeping the registrar’s office
informed of their current mailing address.
Military Called to Active Duty
Augsburg College will allow students to withdraw from
courses without penalty if they are called to active duty as
military reservists, National Guard, or for other military
service. This shall include a 100 percent refund of tuition and
fees upon verification of call to active duty. The student must
provide a copy of their orders to the registrar.
If the student is called to duty after the deadline to drop
a course, the registrar will place a W for the course(s) along
with a notation on the transcript that the student was called
to active duty. This is to assist the student with any financial
aid complications that may arise and also indicate that the
withdrawal was outside of the student’s control.
Alternatively, the College supports faculty in enabling
students who are called to active duty and have substantially
completed a course, to assign a grade based upon the coursework completed, or work out an “incomplete” agreement.
Students who are able to complete some of their courses
would have their refund adjusted to reflect this.
Students who are being placed on active duty should contact the registrar and/or the dean’s office as soon as possible so
the College can notify all parties and aid in this process.
Student Standing Committee
The Student Standing Committee reviews requests for exceptions to academic policies. Typically, the committee considers
requests for:
• Minor exceptions to academic requirements and/or
approval of transfer course substitutions
• Extending time for an incomplete
• Permission to take a course overload
• Student schedule changes after registration deadlines (adding, withdrawing, or grade option changes)
Note: Petitions for an exception to published registration
deadlines will require a $50 petition fee attached to the petition. This fee is non-refundable regardless of the outcome of
Academic Information
the petition. Petitions involving adding or dropping courses/
withdrawing from college after the deadline must be submitted within six months of the published registration deadlines
for the term involved.
For petitions requesting a late registration, any student
account holds must be cleared before submitting the petition.
Students who are allowed to add a course by petition after the
published petition deadline will incur a $150 late registration
fee per course.
In addition, the committee reviews students’ transcripts
in determining academic probation or dismissal from the
College on academic grounds. The committee also hears
appeals from students who have been dismissed for academic
reasons.
The committee reviews student requests for readmission
to the College after dismissal or returning after leaving while
on probation, or students readmitting to the College immediately after a term from which they withdrew from College.
The committee typically meets every other week throughout the school year (September-April), and once a month
during summer.

Step 1: Pick up a petition form at the Enrollment Center or
download from the registrar’s webpage, www.augsburg.edu/
registrar/.
Step 2: Fill out the petition form completely. Include documentation for illness or family emergency. Have your adviser,
instructor, or department chairs sign and add comments
concerning your request. Petitions without comments from
faculty will be returned for completion. Note: If petitioning
for a change in registration, please submit a drop/add form
signed by both the instructor and student.
Step 3: Return the completed petition form to the Office of the
Registrar/Enrollment Center; include signed drop/add form
and $50 check if applicable.
Step 4: After the committee meets, a copy of the petition
with the committee’s decision is returned to the student. Day
students will receive this notice in their campus box. WEC
and Rochester student petitions will be mailed to their home
address.
Catalog Applicability
Students must fulfill the general education requirements that
were in effect when they matriculated at Augsburg. Students
may elect to satisfy the departmental major requirements of
any of the catalogs in effect during their years of enrollment.
However, students who are readmitted after more than six
years away from the College must complete the departmental
major requirements of the most current catalog at the time of
readmission or any one of the catalogs in effect during their
subsequent years of continuous enrollment at Augsburg.
Second Majors and Degrees
Students who graduated from Augsburg and are returning to
complete a second major will not be awarded a second degree
unless it is different from the original degree awarded. (BA,
BM, BS) Students cannot earn multiple degrees for the same
major, though it is possible to earn multiple degrees from
the same academic department if the majors are distinct. For
example, a student cannot earn both a BA in computer science
and a BS in computer science, but may earn a BS in computer
science and a BA in computational philosophy.
Evaluation of Transfer Credit
The evaluation of transfer credits is completed by the Office
of the Registrar and is based on a student’s official transcript.
College credit is granted for liberal arts courses completed
at regionally accredited institutions with a grade of 2.0/C
or better. Liberal arts courses are defined as courses similar
in nature, content, and level to those offered at Augsburg.
Augsburg does not grant transfer credit for developmentalremedial courses, vocational-technical courses, or continuing education units (CEUs). Courses with grades of C-, CD,
or below do not transfer to Augsburg College. Competency
credits and exam credits issued by another institution may
and will be evaluated on a individual basis. The registrar’s
office evaluates coursework for credit and for applicability
toward Augsburg Core Curriculum requirements. Academic
departments are responsible for evaluating the applicability of coursework toward a student’s major or minor. The
College requires that certain courses and a minimum number of courses be taken at Augsburg. (Refer to the Residence
Requirements section of the catalog.)
Augsburg operates on a course credit system rather than
semester or quarter hours. Augsburg course credits are equivalent to four semester hours or six quarter hours. Transfer
credits that have been reported to Augsburg as semester or
quarter hours are converted to Augsburg course credits by
dividing by four or six respectively.
Augsburg College limits transfer credit from two-year
colleges. Students may transfer a maximum of 64 semester
credits (96 quarter credits) from two-year colleges. Once a
student reaches this credit limit, no additional credits will
transfer from two-year institutions toward the minimum
number of course credits required for a bachelor’s degree.
However, courses taken beyond the credit limit can be used to
meet liberal arts and major requirements.
Courses and credits that are accepted in transfer are
reported on the student’s transcript. Grades and grade points
from other institutions are not transferred to Augsburg and are
not included in the student’s cumulative grade point average.
Students should consult with their faculty adviser and the
Office of the Registrar before taking courses at other institutions to ensure compliance with transfer credit policy and
residency requirements. (Refer to the Residence Requirements
section of the catalog.)

Academic Information
MnSCU Transfer Students
Completion of the Minnesota Transfer Curriculum (MnTC)
with a cumulative grade point average of 2.5 or higher will
satisfy Augsburg’s Liberal Arts Foundation requirements
and will reduce the Search for Meaning requirement to one
course (REL 300). Students will be granted credit for transferable courses graded C or better. To qualify for this transfer
program, the MnTC must be completed prior to enrollment at
Augsburg.
Completion of the Associate of Arts degree with the
MnTC and a cumulative grade point average of 2.5 or higher
will satisfy Augsburg’s Liberal Arts Foundation requirements, will reduce the Search for Meaning requirement to one
course (REL 300), and will waive one of two Lifetime Fitness
requirements. Students will be granted credit for transferable
courses graded C – or better. Transfer courses that equate
to Augsburg’s requirements of Effective Writing, entry level
math, and modern language must have a grade of C or better
in order for credit to be granted. To qualify for this transfer
program, the A.A. degree and MnTC must be completed prior
to enrollment at Augsburg.
Note: Additional prerequisite coursework beyond the AA
degree may be required in some Augsburg majors. Students
are advised to consult an academic adviser in the major
department to discuss major requirements. Courses with
C–grades or below will not be accepted as prerequisites or for
application to majors.
Admission to a major—a separate process from admission
to the College—is sometimes required. Please check with the
Office of Undergraduate Admissions and consult the departmental section of this catalog.
Advanced Transfer Students
Students who enter Augsburg with 13 or more course credits accepted in transfer are considered Advanced Transfer
Students. The Augsburg Core Curriculum will be adjusted for
advanced transfer students as outlined below:
• Complete REL 300 Bible, Christian Theology, and Vocation
instead of REL 100 and REL 200
• Waiver of Augsburg Seminar requirement
• Waiver of Engaging Minneapolis
• Waiver of the Entry-level Critical Thinking Assessment
• Waiver of one Lifetime Fitness requirement (depending on
transfer evaluation)
All Augsburg Core Curriculum requirements not mentioned
above remain unchanged for Advanced Transfer Students.
*Waivers for Advanced Transfer are determined at the
time of initial entry into Augsburg and will not be granted for
courses completed after initial enrollment.
Transfer Credit for Military Experience
Students are welcome to submit their military transcripts to
the Office of the Registrar for transfer credit evaluation. A
military transcript will contain credit recommendations from
the American Council on Education (ACE) for training and
courses completed in the U.S. Armed Services. Augsburg will
52

Graduation Requirements
The responsibility for ensuring that all degree requirements
are satisfied rests with the student. All students are required to
file a graduation application with the registrar’s office one year
prior to graduation.
Faculty advisers, the Academic Advising staff, department
chairs, and the registrar staff are available for counsel and
assistance in program planning.
Students who enter an academic program with a bachelor’s or higher degree should contact the Office of the
Registrar about specific requirements for a second bachelor’s
degree or for the equivalent of a major. See page 18 — Special
Students (Second Degree).
Each student is required to apply for graduation at
the end of his or her junior year to confirm remaining
graduation requirements.
Application forms are available at the Enrollment Center
or on the registrar’s webpage.
All degree and course requirements must be completed
and verified in the Office of the Registrar in order for the
degree to be conferred. (There may be no incompletes or open
courses on the academic record.)
Requirements for Undergraduate Graduation
Degree requirements include completion of a minimum
number of credits, a major, the Augsburg Core Curriculum, a
minimum GPA in major(s)/minor(s) and in total coursework,
and residence.
1. Completion of 32 course credits—No more than these
maximums may be applied toward the 32 total course credits
required: two course credits by independent/directed study;
four course credits of internship; and six course credits with
a grade of Pass (P). To graduate with Latin honors, students
may take no more than two elective P/N graded course credits. Each department sets its own limitations on the number of
P/N graded courses that may be applied toward the major and
minor programs, but normally students may apply no more
than two course credits with P grades toward a major and no
Academic Information
more than one course credit with a P grade toward a minor.
The Department of Education is an example of a department
that allows students to apply more than two course credits
with P grades within the major program (two in major field
courses plus student teaching).
2. Completion of a Major—Requirements for each major are
listed under the departmental headings.
3. Completion of the Augsburg Core Curriculum —Requirements
for the Augsburg Core Curriculum are listed in the next
section.
4. Grade Point Average —Students must earn a minimum
overall grade point average of 2.00. Additionally, all majors
and minors require at least a 2.00 grade point average in
coursework for the major or minor. Some majors, licensure,
and certification programs require a higher grade point average or a minimum grade in each course. See the departmental
section for details about the grade and grade point average for
individual majors and minors.
5. Residence —A minimum of 8.0 course credits must be
completed through Augsburg College. Additionally, no fewer
than 6.0 of the last 8.0 course credits must be completed at
Augsburg or within an approved exchange program (ACTC,
McNally Smith, or Augsburg Abroad). Transfer courses and
Assessment of Previous Learning (APL) credits are counted
against the residency requirement. Therefore, students are
encouraged to complete transfer work and APL credits
prior to reaching senior standing. Some departments have a
minimum number of courses that are required in residence
within the major or minor. Consult the catalog description
of the major/minor or the chair of the department for further
information.

Academic Information
The Augsburg Curriculum
The Augsburg Curriculum is comprised of three main components: the core curriculum (or general education requirements), major requirements, and electives. Some students
may need to complete entry-level skill courses before enrolling in college-level classes. The general education requirements, known as the Augsburg Core Curriculum, include
signature courses and experiences, a liberal arts foundation,
and skills development.

The Augsburg Core Curriculum
The Augsburg Core Curriculum is designed to prepare
students to become effective, informed, and ethical citizens
through their engagement in a curriculum that:
• Provides a liberal arts foundation and promotes the acquisition of intellectual and professional skills;
• Calls for common inquiry into questions of Christian faith
and the search for meaning; and
Academic Information
• Cultivates the transformative discovery of, and appreciation for, the student’s place of leadership and service in a
diverse world — vocatio and caritas.
The curriculum has three major components:
• The Augsburg Signature Curriculum
• The Liberal Arts Foundation
• Skills Requirements
Skills Requirements
Entry Level Skills Assessments
There are entry level skills assessments in:
• Critical Thinking
• Mathematics
• Writing
Placement in writing, math, and critical thinking courses is
determined by assessments. These assessments are a prerequisite for (not completion of) core and graduation skills course
requirements.
Critical Thinking Assessment and Requirement
Students identified as needing the entry level critical thinking
skill component, based on review of their past academic work,
are required to complete GST 100 with a minimum grade of
2.0 or better.
Mathematics Assessment and Requirement
All students are required to have their math placement group
(MPG) determined. In some cases, students who have transferred a mathematics course taken at another college may
have their MPG determined by the registrar’s office. All other
students must take the Augsburg Math Placement Exam,
which is administered by Academic Advising. The exam
is given during College registration sessions and at other
announced times during the year. Practice questions and
other information are available from Academic Advising.
Based on the math assessment result, students will be
enrolled in the appropriate courses or advised on preparation
for retaking the math placement exam. Students may retake
the Math Placement Exam once during their first term of
enrollment. Students are required to take the Math Placement
Exam before registering for the first term and should achieve
MPG 3 by the end of their first year at Augsburg.
Students in MPG 1 must take MAT 103 to advance to
MPG 2. Students in MPG 2 must take MAT 105 to advance
to MPG 3. Students in MPG 3 must take MAT 114 to advance
to MPG 4. No other MAT course changes a student’s MPG.
A grade of Pass or 2.0 or higher is required to advance to the
next math level.
Students are encouraged to advance their MPG as soon
as possible. Students must achieve Math Placement Group
(MPG) 3 or higher to graduate. In addition, many courses
require MPG 2, 3, or 4 as a prerequisite.
Writing Assessment and Requirement
A writing sample is required of students to determine their
placement in an appropriate writing class. Students having
completed AP (Advanced Placement) courses in composition must have a score of 4 or 5. Students who need to
develop competence in composition skills—such as stating
and supporting a thesis, organizing clearly, and constructing paragraphs and sentences—are required to enroll in
Developmental Writing (ENL 101) where they receive more
individual instruction than is possible in Effective Writing
(ENL 111). These students must pass Developmental Writing
(ENL 101) with a grade of P, 2.0, or higher before enrolling in
Effective Writing (ENL 111).
Unless they have received formal approval of a course
equivalent to ENL 111 on their transfer evaluation, transfer
students must also take the writing placement exam. Students
entering Weekend College or the Rochester program do not
take the Writing Assessment.
Core Skills Requirements
Effective Writing
ENL 111 Effective Writing or ENL 112 Advanced Effective
Writing or the equivalent with a grade of 2.0, P, or higher, is
required. Attendance the first day of class is required.
Students should complete Effective Writing by the middle
of the sophomore year.
Modern Language
For students who have not previously studied a modern
language, completion of a two-course sequence in the same
language with a minimum grade of 2.0 or P in both courses is
required. For a language previously studied, placement into
the 211 level or successful completion (minimum grade of 2.0
or P) of 112 satisfies the graduation requirement. Placement
into French, German and Spanish courses is based on assessment results from an online Brigham Young University evaluation tool. Students proficient in other modern languages
may seek a placement evaluation through faculty fluent in
the specified language at Augsburg or other ACTC schools.
Availability of assessment in all languages is not guaranteed.
Assessment is used for placement only and does not grant
course credit. Students may audit, but will not receive course
credit for any course taken below their placement level. The
Department of Languages and Cross-cultural Studies may
override assessment results as deemed appropriate.
Modern language courses accepted in transfer may be
applicable to this skills area for partial or full completion of
the requirement.
Students who have demonstrated competence in
American Sign Language by passing an approved course
sequence will have fulfilled the Modern Language Core Skill.
Students whose first language is not English and whose
score is below the minimum on the English Language
Learners (ELL) placement test must fulfill the ELL requirement. The requirement is satisfied by successfully completing
the ELL course(s) and achieving a score above the minimum
on the ELL placement exam. Students who complete the
ELL requirement fulfill the Modern Language Core Skill
Augsburg College 2010-2011 I 55

requirement. Contact Academic Advising or the English
Department for additional information. More information
about English Language Learners is found on page 92.
Lifetime Fitness
Two lifetime fitness courses are required. HPE 001
Foundations of Fitness is required of all students. The second
course may be chosen from a variety of different Lifetime
Activity courses (HPE 002, 003). Students may test out of the
activity course by demonstrating proficiency from a selected
lifetime activity. Proficiency exams are offered through the
Health and Physical Education Department each semester.
There is a fee to take the lifetime activity proficiency test.
Intercollegiate athletes and Health and Physical Education
majors may not test out of this requirement.
Foundations of Fitness and Lifetime Activity courses
are non-credit courses and are not included in the 32-course
credit graduation requirement.
The Augsburg Signature Curriculum
Christian Vocation and the Search for Meaning
Augsburg’s Signature Curriculum takes seriously the College’s
identity as a college of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America. Two required courses (REL 100 and REL 200) highlight Augsburg’s commitment to this identity and the College’s
related interest in asking students to think critically about the
concept of vocation.
Faculty who teach these courses make the following commitments to their students:
• You are welcome—whether you are Jewish or atheist,
Buddhist or seeker, Catholic or Muslim, Baptist, Lutheran,
uncertain, disinterested, or someone who is “spiritual but
not religious.” Our Christian understanding is rooted in a
generous spirit of hospitality.
• We will treat each other with respect as we learn how to
engage in conversation with one another about our different values, commitments, convictions, and faith traditions.
• We will challenge and support one another to develop a
mature faith for our time—open to doubts and eager to
explore our questions and the realities of our world and
culture.
• We will equip you with basic knowledge about vocation, religion, the Bible, and Christianity as well as about
Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism—their stories,
claims, and key concepts.
• We will deepen our study of Christianity, explore
Augsburg’s claim that “what we believe matters,” and invite
you to continue the process of developing your own lived
theology.
• We will explore the concept of vocation and our understanding that we are beloved and called to live and serve as
neighbors. We will explore the idea that vocation is a model
and lens for viewing the connections between our basic
beliefs and the commitments and actions we make in life.
56
I Augsburg College 2010-2011
The Augsburg First Year
In order to help them make the transition to college and
their new community, first-year weekday program students are required to take courses containing the following
components:
Augsburg Seminar
All students who enter the College as first-year students in
the weekday schedule program must satisfactorily complete
fall orientation and Augsburg Seminar (AugSem), a first-year
learning community in their major or related area of academic interest. AugSem’s purpose is to help first-year students
embrace the expectations and benefits of being a member of a
learning community at Augsburg College by:
• Encountering the community
• Engaging the learning process
• Exploring the self as scholar
AugSem equips students to become intentional learners, connects them to the larger Augsburg community, and helps them
succeed in future college work.
Engaging Minneapolis
The Engaging Minneapolis requirement builds on Augsburg’s
national leadership in experiential education as well as its
commitment to its urban location. The course linked with
their AugSem introduces students to the city as a resource
for intentional learning, typically through civic engagement,
cultural engagement, or service learning.
Many Voices Project
Embedded in ENL 111, 112, and HON 111 (see core skills
requirements), the Many Voices Project engages first-year
students in discussion of a common text addressing themes
of cultural diversity and global awareness. Emphasizing ways
in which written communication can promote understanding and productive engagement among different cultures and
points of view, the Many Voices Project is intended to teach
skills and methods that promote successful communication
between diverse writers and readers.
Augsburg Experience
All students must complete at least one approved Augsburg
Experience as a requirement for graduation. Augsburg
Experiences highlight the College’s commitment to experiential education and active participation in the broader
community, both locally and globally. Five categories of
approved experiential learning opportunities are recognized
as Augsburg Experiences: internships (including fieldwork,
practicums, and student teaching), faculty-student research,
service learning/community service, study abroad, and offcampus immersion experiences.
An Augsburg Experience integrates experiential learning
with academic learning. It demonstrates enhanced learning
and reflects research and best practices in experiential education. Approved Augsburg Experiences meet two criteria: (1)
integrate experiential learning with academic learning and (2)
link on-campus learning to the goals, mission, needs, or ideas
Academic Information
of off-campus people, organizations, and/or communities,
either through community partners, professional activities,
and/or travel. Augsburg Experiences may be embedded in
designated courses that are part of the regular class schedule
or may be completed for zero credit outside the regular class
schedule. The length of time required, credit/no-credit status,
and grading options for approved Augsburg Experiences vary.
Senior Keystone
The Senior Keystone course provides a final opportunity
for exploring the central themes of an Augsburg education—vocation and the search for meaning in a diverse and
challenging world. Students reflect on the meaning of their
educational experiences and consider issues of transition as
they prepare for their lives after Augsburg. Most Keystone
courses also meet major requirements.
The Senior Keystone course in each department connects
the broad liberal arts foundation with the professional skills
and in-depth study of the major. It asks graduating students
to think critically, reflectively, and ethically about their place
in the world as leaders and servants.
The official list of approved keystone courses is found
on the registrar’s webpage—under the heading General
Education Requirements, click on Senior Keystone.
The Liberal Arts Foundation
The Liberal Arts Foundation courses introduce students to
knowledge and modes of inquiry across a wide range of disciplines and subjects. The course offerings in the traditional
liberal arts provide the opportunity for students to acquire
a broad and solid foundation for their specialized study and
professional preparation.
Students choose two approved LAF courses from two
different departments in each domain: Natural Sciences and
Mathematics; Social and Behavioral Sciences; Humanities; and
Fine Arts.
The official list of approved LAF courses is found on the
registrar’s webpage—under the heading General Education
Requirements, click on Liberal Arts Foundation.
Natural Sciences and Mathematics
Two approved courses from two different departments:
Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics.
One must be a lab science course.
Social and Behavioral Sciences
Two approved courses from two different departments:
Anthropology, Economics, Environmental Studies, Political
Science, Psychology, Sociology
Humanities
Two approved courses from two different departments/
programs:
American Indian Studies, Communication Studies, English,
History, Philosophy, Religion, Languages and Cross-Cultural
Studies (literature and culture courses), Women’s Studies
Note: The signature Search for Meaning (REL 100, 200,
or 300) courses do not count as humanities Liberal Arts
Foundation requirements.
Fine Arts
Two approved courses or approved activities from two different departments:
Art, Film, Music, Theatre Arts.
One fine arts LAF requirement can be met by participating in one of the following:
• Four semesters in any combination of the major choral
ensembles listed (MUE 111, 112, 114, 115)
• Four semesters of orchestra (MUE 121)
• Four semesters of concert band (MUE 141)
Graduation Skills Requirements
An Augsburg education includes enhancement of certain
skills during the years in college. Critical thinking, quantitative reasoning, speaking, and writing skills are deliberate
components of certain courses. Graduation skill requirements
typically are embedded in required courses in the major. Some
departments, however, designate courses outside the major or
elective courses in the major that fulfill these requirements.
The Quantitative Reasoning (QR) skill has two components: foundational skills and the application of those skills.
Courses in which foundational quantitative reasoning skills
are taught have a QF designation. Courses that contain an
embedded project in which students apply and practice those
foundational skills have a QA designation. Courses that provide both foundational skills and an application project have a
QFA designation. MPG 3 (Math Placement Group 3) is a prerequisite for all quantitative reasoning QF and QFA courses.
Departments may designate one required course with a QF
designation and one required course with a QA designation
(departments may also designate a list of QF or QA courses
from which students can choose); OR, departments may designate a QFA course that fulfills the Quantitative Reasoning
skill (departments may also designate a list of QFA courses
from which students can choose); OR, departments may list
this skill as embedded.
See department and program pages in this catalog, consult the graduation skills catalog supplement found online on
the registrar’s webpage, or consult the department chair for
more information.
Core Curriculum Modifications
Some majors that result in a Bachelor of Science degree give
students the ability to modify their Core Curriculum requirements in one of the following ways.
Bachelor of Science/Liberal Arts Foundation (LAF) Waiver—
Students who elect the Bachelor of Science/LAF Waiver must
complete at least six of the eight LAF requirements, provided
at least one course is taken in each of the four domains. (e.g.,
two Natural Science and Mathematics courses, two Social and
Behavioral Science courses, one Fine Arts course, and one
Humanities course) The following majors are approved for
Augsburg College 2010-2011 I 57
Academic Information
the Bachelor of Science/LAF Waiver:
• Biology
• Chemistry
• Clinical Laboratory Science
• Elementary Education
• Health Education (teaching licensure only)
• Mathematics
• Music Therapy
• Nursing
• Physical Education (teaching licensure only)
• Physics
Bachelor of Science/Modern Language Waiver—Students who
elect the Bachelor of Science/Modern Language Waiver are not
required to complete modern language courses as part of their
degree. The following majors are approved for the Bachelor of
Science/Modern Language Waiver:
• Biology
• Chemistry
• Clinical Laboratory Science
• Mathematics
• Music Therapy
• Nursing
• Physics
• See P/N limitations under Graduation Requirements,
page 52.
Certain courses have restrictions and are offered on one
grading system only (e.g., lifetime activities are graded only
P/N). 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.
Numeric Grades
Numeric grades are used with these definitions:
4.0 Achieves highest standards of excellence
3.5
3.0 Achieves above basic course standards
2.5
2.0 Meets basic standards for the course
1.5
1.0 Performance below basic course standards
0.5
0.0 Unacceptable performance (no credit for the course)
Grades of P (Pass) or S (Satisfactory) or N (No credit) are not
computed in the grade point average.
Incomplete (I) Grades
Evaluation and Grading
Explanation of Grades
The official delivery of end-of-term grades to students is
online via the AugNet Records and Registration website.
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 to 0.0 scale or the Pass/No credit system, in which P means a grade of 2.0 or better and N means
no credit and a grade of less than 2.0.
Pass/No Credit
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.
• Maximum number of course credits taken P/N that may be
applied to graduation is six course credits with a grade of
Pass (P).
• 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 Latin Honors.
Transfer students should be especially aware of this
requirement.
• To be eligible for graduation with Latin Honors, students
may elect only two P/N credits.
58
I Augsburg College 2010-2011
An incomplete grade (I) may be awarded when the instructor
grants permission after determining that a student emergency
may delay completion of coursework. Students who receive
an incomplete grade should be capable of passing the course
if they satisfactorily complete outstanding course requirements. To receive an incomplete grade, a student must file an
Application for Incomplete Grade form by the end of the term
with the Office of the Registrar that states the reasons for the
request, outlines the work required to complete the course,
and includes the course instructor’s signature. The instructor
may stipulate the terms and conditions that apply to course
completion; however, students may not attend the same
course (or a portion of the same course) in a following term
with an incomplete grade. The student must complete the
outstanding work in enough time to allow evaluation of the
work by the instructor and filing of a grade before the final
day of the following academic term in the student’s program.
If the work is not completed by the specified date of the following academic term, the grade for the course becomes 0.0.
Extension (X) Grades
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 (extension) 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
Academic Information
than one year). An instructor has the right to not grant an
extension where satisfactory progress is not demonstrated. If
the course is not completed, a grade of 0.0 will be assigned.
Withdrawal Grade
A course is given a grade of W (withdrawn) when it is
dropped after the deadline for dropping classes without
notation on the record and before the last day to withdraw
deadline.
Repeated Courses
A course in which a grade of 0.0, 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 each term
and grades earned, including W and N, will be recorded 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. Courses
completed at Augsburg College must be repeated at Augsburg
to be included in the repeat policy.
Auditing Courses
Students who wish to take courses without credit or grade
may do so by registering for Audit (V). Full-time day students
will be charged an audit fee if their total credit load is over 4.5
credits. The charge for part-time and Weekend College students is listed under Weekend College costs in the Financing
Your Education section on page 21. The signature of the
instructor is required to register an audit. Students who audit
a course should confer with the instructor within two weeks
of 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. Audited courses do not count toward
graduation and do not fulfill general education requirements.
Grade Point Average
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 credits
attempted.*
*Courses with 0 to 4 grade assigned
Classification
Students are classified when grades are posted at the end of
each term. Classification is based on the number of course
credits completed.
• Sophomores—7 completed course credits
• Juniors—15 completed course credits
• Seniors—23 completed course credits
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
comprise the academic program of a liberal arts college. The
Assessment of Previous Learning program (APL) at Augsburg
provides a means by which a student’s previous learning,
other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented for examination for possible
credit toward the completion of a bachelor’s degree.
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit recognition at a liberal arts college. Such
learning must meet two essential criteria: (1) it is relevant to
coursework in a field of study within the Augsburg liberal arts
curriculum, and (2) it can be objectively demonstrated either
by comprehensive examination or committee evaluation.
The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by
which students may have their previous learning assessed for
credit recognition. The following is a brief description of each
of these means of assessment:
International Baccalaureate Program (IB)—Courses earned from
the International Baccalaureate program will be considered by
the College for advanced placement and appropriate credit.
IB exams may fulfill general education and/or major requirements. Credit granting guidelines are available in the registrar’s office and on the Academic Advising website.
Advanced Placement Program (AP)—Augsburg allows students
to earn credit for scores of 3, 4, or 5 on selected Advanced
Placement tests. For some exams, a minimum score of 4
is required. AP exams may fulfill general education and/or
major requirements. Additional information is available on
the Academic Advising webpage and from the Office of the
Registrar.
The College Level Examination Program (CLEP)—This is a series
of standardized tests that have been developed by the College
Board and are offered to students for a small fee at regional
testing centers. Students who score at or above the American
Council on Education’s recommended score on an approved
examination may receive academic credit for that subject at
Augsburg College. CLEP exams may fulfill general education
and/or major requirements. Information about CLEP tests is
available from the Office of the Registrar and the Academic
Advising webpage.
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 exam 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 P/N
Augsburg College 2010-2011 I 59
Academic Information
basis only, and there is a charge per exam of $400 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 or systematic study of content material found
within liberal arts coursework.
• 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 one term of academic work at Augsburg
College with a cumulative Augsburg GPA of at least 2.50. It
is strongly recommended that the process not be used when
four or fewer courses remain for graduation. There is a nonrefundable application deposit of $200 to initiate the credit
assessment process for each course presented in a portfolio.
An additional $200 is charged upon approval of each course.
Credit is available on a P/N credit basis only.
Transcript credit will be recorded with the equivalent
Augsburg course numbers as determined by faculty reviewers.
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
placed in the context of formal study in campus-based liberal
arts courses. Therefore, Augsburg allows a maximum of eight
credits (one-fourth of a bachelor’s degree) to be obtained
through previous experiential learning. In compiling the eight
credits for previous experiential learning, the student may use
any combination of the five assessment processes available in
the APL Program: AP exams, CLEP exams, IB exams, departmental comprehensive exams, and credit granted through
portfolio assessment.
English Language Learners (ELL)
Students whose primary language spoken at home is not
English must take the ELL placement test in conjunction
with the English writing placement test prior to registering
for their first term at Augsburg. Students’ placement in ELL,
ENL 101 Developmental Writing, or ENL 111, HON 111, or
ENL 112 Effective Writing will be determined by their scores
on the Michigan test (85-100 range for exemption from ELL
60
I Augsburg College 2010-2011
courses) and by a writing sample.
Near the end of each term of the English Language
Learner’s course, an objective test will be administered to all
students in the class. The score on this test and the grade
earned in the class will determine whether additional ELL
coursework is required. Usually a score of 85 to 100 and
a course grade of 3.5 or 4.0 will fulfill the student’s ELL
requirement.
All students whose native language is not English must
stay enrolled in ENL 217/218 until such time that they pass
the ELL placement test at 85 percent or higher. The ELL
course can be counted only twice in the total number of
courses required for graduation.
Students who fulfill the ELL requirement, by examination or by course completion, have completed the Modern
Language Core Skill requirement for graduation.
Academic Progress, Probation, and
Dismissal
The College requires that all students maintain a 2.00 cumulative grade point average (GPA). A minimum GPA of 2.00 is
required for graduation; however, certain majors require a
higher minimum GPA.
A student will be placed on probation and considered for
continuation or dismissal if:
• His/her cumulative GPA is below 2.00
• He/she is a first-year student who receives two (2) zero or
No Pass grades
• He/she is a sophomore, junior, or senior who receives three
(3) zero or No Pass grades
• At the end of their first term, he/she has not fulfilled the
requirements established through the Conditional Admit
Program (refer to the Academic Skills Office Conditional
Admit Program (CAP) section of the catalog).
Dismissal from the College is not automatic. Each case is
reviewed by the Student Standing Committee. Evidence of
a student’s commitment to academic progress is the primary
consideration used when deciding whether to dismiss a
student.
Students who have a poor academic record may be
strongly advised to withdraw before the end of a term.
Students on probation who voluntarily withdraw from the
College must receive permission from the Student Standing
Committee to re-enroll.
Students who have been dismissed may apply for readmission after one year. At that time, the Student Standing
Committee will review the application for readmission accompanied by any statements and evidence attesting to his/her
commitment to academic success.
A student will be removed from probation if:
• His/her cumulative GPA reaches 2.00; or
• He/ she was placed on probation because of unfulfilled
Conditional Admit Requirements and he/she subsequently
satisfies those requirements.
Academic Information
The Dean’s List, compiled after each semester, lists undergraduate students whose grade point average for a semester is
3.50 or better. Students must be full-time students (a minimum equivalent of three full course credits for a weekday
schedule student or two equivalent full course credits for a
Weekend College student), graded on the traditional grading system, with no incompletes in courses offered for credit.
Courses taken outside of a program’s calendar (e.g., crossover
courses taken in a Weekend College trimester term by a day
student or in a semester term by a weekend student) are not
calculated when determining the Dean’s List. If permission
has been given by the student, an announcement is sent to the
hometown newspaper for those students on the Dean’s List.
fulfilled, meaning that one can graduate at any point during the academic year provided that all requirements are
complete.
Commencement is a ceremony. It is an opportunity for
students, family, friends, and the Augsburg College community to celebrate academic accomplishment. Participation
in commencement, however, does not mean that a student
has graduated. A student will not graduate and a degree will
not be conferred until all requirements are met, regardless of
participation in commencement.
Augsburg College holds two commencement ceremonies
in the spring to accommodate the College’s different student populations. The May commencement ceremony is for
students in the Day undergraduate program and for students
in the Physician Assistant Studies graduate program. The
June commencement ceremony is for students in the other
five graduate programs as well as undergraduate students
in Weekend College, Rochester campus, and the Partner
Hospitals program.
Undergraduate students who have not completed all
degree requirements may participate in commencement if: (1)
no more than three requirements will remain in their program at the conclusion of spring term; and (2) the remaining
requirements will be completed in the summer or fall terms
immediately following commencement.
Latin Honors
Enrollment/Degree Verification
Augsburg recognizes those students who have demonstrated
exemplary academic achievement by conferring Latin honors
upon completion of a baccalaureate degree.
This designation and the standards set are in effect for all
students who complete degree requirements in May 2004 or
later. Students may also receive honors recognition for departmental honors and for participation in the Honors program.
(See individual department and program descriptions for
details.)
Augsburg College has authorized the National Student
Clearinghouse to act as its agent for verification of student
enrollment and degree status.
Contact information is as follows:
National Student Clearinghouse
13454 Sunrise Valley Road, Suite 300
Herndon, VA 20171
Web: www.degreeverify.org
Phone: 703-742-4200
Fax: 703-742-4239
E-mail: degreeverify@studentclearinghouse.org
The College reserves the right to dismiss any student who
does not meet the guidelines stated above. Once a student
is dismissed, he/she may appeal the decision to the Student
Standing Committee within 10 school days. Specific appeal
instructions are included in the letter of dismissal.
Students may also be dismissed from professional
programs, such as Social Work, Education and Nursing. A
student dismissed from a program may appeal the decision
through the Program Dismissal Appeal Process. The process is
available at www.augsburg.edu/studentguide/.
Dean’s List
Qualification for Latin honors is determined as follows:
Summa cum laude: 3.90-4.00 GPA plus successful
completion of the summa oral examination
Magna cum laude: 3.80-3.89 GPA
Cum laude: 3.60-3.79 GPA
To be eligible, a student must complete a minimum of 14 traditionally graded credits at Augsburg and have no more than
two elective pass/no pass graded credits at Augsburg (classes
offered only as P/N by the department will not be counted).
For additional information, including the guidelines for
the Summa Cum Laude oral examination, go to the Latin
Honors section at www.augsburg.edu/registrar/.
Veterans of Military Service
Augsburg is approved by the state approving agency for veterans education. Veterans should consult with the
V.A. certifying official in the Office of the Registrar about
completion of enrollment verification and the forwarding
of other information to the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Veterans will need to meet the requirements of the Veterans
Administration regarding repayment of educational assistance
funds received.
Additional information about veterans education benefits
can be found at www.gibill.va.gov.
Graduation and Commencement

Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act Notice
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974
Augsburg College 2010-2011 I 61
Academic Information
(FERPA), as amended, provides certain rights to students
regarding their education records. Each year Augsburg
College is required to give notice of the various rights
accorded to students pursuant to FERPA. In accordance with
FERPA, you are notified of the following:
Right to inspect and review education records—You have the
right to review and inspect substantially all of your education
records maintained by or at Augsburg College. The student
must request to review their education records in writing with
their signature. The College will respond in a reasonable time,
but no later than 45 days after receiving the request.
Right to request amendment of education records—You have
the right to seek to have corrected any parts of an education
record that you believe to be inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of your right to privacy. This includes the
right to a hearing to present evidence that the record should
be changed if Augsburg decides not to alter your education
records according to your request.
Right to give permission for disclosure of personally identifiable information —You have the right to be asked and to give
Augsburg your permission to disclose personally identifiable
information contained in your education records, except to
the extent that FERPA and the regulations regarding FERPA
authorize disclosure without your permission. One exception
which permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to
school officials with legitimate education interests. A school
official is a person employed by the College in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff
position (including law enforcement unit personnel and
health staff); person or company with whom the College has
contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent);
a person serving on the Board of Trustees, or a student serving
on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance
committee, or assisting another school official performing
his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational
interest if the official needs to review an education record in
order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility.
Right to withhold disclosure of “directory information”—FERPA
uses the term “Directory Information” to refer to those categories of personally identifiable information that may be released
for any purpose at the discretion of Augsburg College without
notification of the request or disclosure to the student.
Under FERPA you have the right to withhold the disclosure of the directory information listed below. Please consider
very carefully the consequences of any decision by you to
withhold directory information. Should you decide to inform
Augsburg College not to release Directory Information, any
future request for such information from persons or organizations outside of Augsburg College will be refused.

Augsburg College will honor your request to withhold all
Directory Information but cannot assume responsibility to
contact you for subsequent permission to release it. Augsburg
assumes no liability for honoring your instructions that such
information be withheld. The Office of the Registrar must be
notified in writing of your intent to withhold your Directory
Information. If the notice is not received by the registrar
prior to Sept. 15 (or within 10 school days of the start of a
subsequent term for a new student), it will be assumed that
all Directory Information may be disclosed for the remainder
of the current academic year. A new notice for withholding
disclosure must be completed each academic year.
Right to complain to FERPA Office—You have the right to file a
complaint with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy
Act Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Ave.

Departments and Programs
Departments and Programs
Departments and Programs
As a liberal arts institution, Augsburg College believes that
knowledge and truth are interrelated and are integrated into a
whole. The tradition of the academic world, however, divides
this unified truth into more manageable parts: the academic
disciplines. The knowledge of individual disciplines is subdivided into courses that make it more accessible to students.
These courses can be arranged in various ways to construct
majors, to create the substance of a broad general education, and to give students the opportunity to study areas of
particular individual interest.
Course Descriptions
Descriptions of courses are arranged by departments and programs. These descriptions offer a brief summary of the subject matter to aid students in planning a program. A syllabus
containing a more detailed explanation of content, approach,
requirements, and evaluations for a particular course can be
obtained from the instructor.
Department entries also contain a narrative discussion of
the educational philosophy of each department, its goals, and
its place in the College’s program. A listing of requirements
for individual majors and minors follows the narrative.
Class Schedule
Courses listed are subject to change. In general, day classes
are offered fall and/or spring terms unless otherwise indicated. The schedule of classes offered through the Associated
Colleges of the Twin Cities (ACTC) for fall and spring terms
is only available online.
Since some courses are offered alternate years, it is
important that the student review major requirements and
course offerings with an adviser to ensure that all requirements can be met.
Descriptions and schedules for Summer Session, the
Master of Arts in Education, Master of Arts in Leadership,
Master of Arts in Nursing, Master of Business Administration,
Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies, Master of
Social Work, and Doctor of Nursing Practice courses are
published in a separate Graduate Studies catalog.
Credits
A full course is offered for one course credit. A few fractional
courses, for one-half or one-quarter course credit, are offered.
Unless noted, all courses are one course credit. A full course
is valued as four semester credits or six quarter hours. Most
day program courses meet for three 60-minute periods or two
90-minute periods per week with additional time required
for laboratory work. All full credit Weekend College courses
meet for eight three-and-one-half-hour sessions during fall
and for seven four-hour sessions during winter and spring
term.

Numbering
Courses numbered below 300 are lower division courses.
Courses numbered 300 and above are classified as upper
division. In general, courses in the 100s are primarily for
first-years, 200s for sophomores, 300s for juniors, and 400s
for seniors.
Prerequisites
Courses that must be taken before enrolling in a higher level
course are listed in the course description as prerequisites. A
student may enroll in a course when a prerequisite has not
been fulfilled if there is prior approval by the professor teaching the course. Some prerequisites (such as ENL 111, math
placement, and critical thinking) cannot be waived by the
instructor. NOTE: Not all courses are offered in all schedules.
Refer to Augnet Records and Registration for information on
when specific courses are offered.
Internships and Independent Studies
Every department offers opportunities for internships and
independent study. The course description and process for
registering is normally the same for each department. Some
departments have additional statements that can be found in
the departmental course listing. Interdisciplinary internships
are also available.
Internships
Registration for internships consists of the following steps:
1. Obtain the internship registration permission form
and secure the signatures of the faculty supervisor and director of the Strommen Career and Internship Center.
2. Register: Turn in the completed internship registration form (with all signatures) to the Enrollment Center.
You must register the internship for the academic term that
coincides with the internship experience.
3. A learning agreement (forms are available in the
Strommen Career and Internship Center) must be completed
with the faculty member responsible for grading the experience and the work supervisor. The original is turned in to the
Strommen Career and Internship Center, with copies made
for the faculty supervisor and student.

Art—ART
Art is essential. It teaches us to see, claim beauty, make sense
of pain, explore the world, and express ourselves.
At Augsburg College, inspiration and creativity grow
from the diversity of ideas experienced on a small campus
in the heart of a major metropolitan area. We balance a solid
foundation of drawing, design, and history with technical
skills, critical thinking, and creative exploration in a range of
media. On-campus galleries showcase the work of students
as well as established artists. An innovative faculty pairs
creative curriculum for traditional disciplines in drawing,
painting, ceramics, sculpture, and photography with emerging disciplines in hand papermaking, book arts, architecture,
and digital media. Class sizes are small; we will get to know
each other.
Galleries and museums surround us; art club, studio visits, and guest artists provide art in real time; service learning,
internships, and study abroad are integral to our program.
We reach an average of 700 students a year from all disciplines, graduating 25-30 majors annually with BA degrees in
art history, studio art, art education; and certificates in studio
art and graphic design.
For over 40 years, students have been earning degrees in
art and art history at Augsburg College. We’re excited to be
here in the center of the city. We think you will be, too.

Biology
Biology—BIO
We are in the midst of a revolution in biology. From the
unraveling of information locked within the human and
other genomes to the complexities of interactions between
organisms in diverse ecosystems in changing environments,
biologists and members of the public are grappling with an
almost overwhelming flood of new information. By focusing
on the core principles of biology, students are given the tools
with which to interpret results coming out of the revolution, and by early exposure to original independent research
projects, given the opportunity to themselves contribute to
our understanding of the natural world. Integration across
biological sub-disciplines is emphasized, paralleling the integration taking place in the maturing field of systems biology.
As biological phenomena become amenable to the analytical tools of chemistry, physics, mathematics and computer
science, biology is increasingly a multidisciplinary venture,
Thus, a firm background in these sciences is also important
for the successful study of biology. Biological forces have
many profound effects on society, and in turn humanity
has strongly affected our biosphere. Thus, service-learning
opportunities are tightly integrated within the curricula.
For many, an undergraduate major in biology serves as a
springboard for further study. Augsburg graduates have gone
on to graduate studies in the life sciences, leading to careers
in college or university teaching, basic and applied research,
and public health. Many have entered professional programs
in medicine, veterinary medicine, and dentistry. Other graduates have gone directly into secondary education, biomedical
and biotechnology industries, laboratory research, natural
resources, and environmental education.

(2.0 or above) within the last 10 years will be considered. No
more than two upper division courses from other institutions
may be applied toward the major.
Prerequisite requirements for health sciences vary with
the program and the institution. Care should be taken to
study the requirements for every program well in advance
of making application. In general, medical schools require
a two-semester sequences in calculus, physics and organic
chemistry. Biochemistry is also commonly required and in
some instances statistics and literature. Programs in physician assistant training, veterinary medicine, physical therapy
and such typically have a more extensive list of prerequisites.
Students considering a post-baccalaureate program in these
areas should consult early and often with health science
advisers Dixie Shafer and Dale Pederson.

Graduate programs in biological fields typically require two
semesters of general chemistry, organic chemistry, calculus and physics. Also required is extensive involvement in
research through Augsburg Experience, internships and/
or independent study. Careful consultation with a biology
adviser is recommended to select among coursework and
research options.
Teaching Licensure Major
The State of Minnesota has specific licensing requirements
for biology teachers, the science portions of which are satisfied by the Augsburg life sciences major. The state requirements may be subject to change after publication of this
catalog. Students therefore should consult with the Augsburg
Department of Education to identify current Minnesota
teacher licensure requirements. All upper division biology
requirements for secondary licensure must be completed
before beginning student teaching.
Post-Baccalaureate Teaching Licensure
Students who have earned a bachelor’s degree elsewhere and
seek life science teaching licensure at Augsburg are required
to complete a minimum of two upper division biology
courses at Augsburg with grades of 2.5 or higher. Required or

Accounting
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 rapidly-growing companies.
The two professional specializations relate to two
professional designations: the CPA and the CMA. A certified
public accountant (CPA) focuses on external reporting; a
certified management accountant (CMA) 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. Both the CPA and CMA designation 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 after graduation.
Effective May 2006, students will need to complete the
equivalent of 150 semester hours of education to be licensed
as Certified Public Accountants (CPAs). This can be completed in four years through accelerated undergraduate work.
Another option is to complete a four-year bachelor’s degree
plus a master’s degree.

Chemistry
Chemistry—CHM
Chemistry is the science that examines and works toward
understanding changes in matter. Chemistry has been
described as the central science because matter includes the
entire physical world, such as the things we use, the food we
eat, and even ourselves. Correlating the insights of chemistry with physics, mathematics, and molecular biology opens
vistas that excite and offer opportunities to benefit the entire
world.
Chemists as scientists must be knowledgeable in fact
and theory for solving scientific problems and also capable
of providing a public understanding of their work, including
potential problems as well as benefits.
Chemists as people must be broadly educated in order to
understand themselves and their society. The liberal arts as
offered in the general education curriculum is imperative if a
chemist is to be both truly human and truly scientific.
Augsburg’s chemistry department is approved by the
American Chemical Society (ACS) and offers a chemistry
major that meets the chemistry background required by
many fields.
Consonant with these ideals, the Department of
Chemistry has established the following objectives to help its
students develop into mature scientists:
• To provide a course of study of sufficient rigor and depth
to enable our graduates who complete our ACS chemistry
major to compete successfully with their peers of similar
ability in graduate school or research positions, as well
as professional goals other than traditional positions as
chemists.
• To provide an atmosphere of learning so that students will
want to remain lifelong learners, thereby remaining competent in their field, however that may change after graduation, and be able to move into new areas as opportunities
arise.
• To encourage students to take a broad view of their education and to integrate outside study areas with the sciences.
• To present the excitement of chemistry to non-science
majors as an example of the methodology of the natural
sciences in examining the world around us. The presentation of major concepts underlying the changes in matter,
the opportunity to examine change in the physical world,
and the reflection of the implications and limitations of
science in our society will enhance the ability of non-science persons to make better value judgments concerning
science questions in their own endeavors.

Clinical Laboratory Science
Clinical Laboratory
Science—CLS
Clinical laboratory scientists perform complex biological,
microbiological, and chemical tests on patient samples. They
also use, maintain, and troubleshoot sophisticated laboratory equipment in the performance of diagnostic tests. The
clinical laboratory scientist analyzes these test results and
discusses them with the medical staff. He/she also possesses
the skills required for molecular diagnostic tests based on
DNA and RNA technologies. In addition, the clinical laboratory scientist will find opportunities in test development,
experimental design, administration, and education.
The curriculum requires a minimum of six semesters on
campus to complete the prerequisite curriculum. Students
spend an additional 12 months of clinical education in a
hospital-sponsored, accredited program during their senior
year. A Bachelor of Science degree is awarded at the satisfactory completion of all required course work.
Admission to the clinical laboratory science major is
on a competitive basis. Students apply for admission to the
clinical laboratory science program early in the fall semester of the academic year just prior to the beginning of their
professional studies, typically in the junior year. Formal
acceptance into the hospital-sponsored program is based on
the submission of an application for admission to the major,
personal recommendations, review of academic performance,
and interview with the Program Admission Committee. A
minimum grade point average of 2.75 overall as well as in
science and mathematics courses is strongly recommended.
Acceptance into the hospital program is not guaranteed by
the College. The hospital program affiliated with Augsburg
is the Fairview Health Services. The program is accredited
by the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory
Sciences (NAACLS), 8410 W. Bryn Mawr, Suite 670, Chicago,
IL 60631; 773-714-8880.
During the clinical component in an accredited hospital
program, students will register for 12.25 credits. The clinical
phase routinely begins in June with anticipated graduation
the following spring. Graduates of the program are eligible to
sit for certification examinations offered by national certification agencies.

Computer Science
Computer Science—CSC
The Department of Computer Science at Augsburg strives
to give students a sound theoretical and practical foundation in computer science. We offer both a BA and a BS major.
The coursework provides students a strong foundation in
computer science, with emphasis on concepts rather than
on applications. We encourage students to strengthen their
coursework by electing an internship or cooperative education experience. Our location in the Twin Cities provides us
with an excellent resource of such experiences for students,
and allows them to add practical applications to their education.
