augsburg an . . . i Augsburg College Minneapolis, Minnesota 55454 (Spring) 55404 (Fall) Volume 44,1974-1975 2 faculty . . . individuation?! Editor's note: After many trials and tribulations, Chuck Gabrielson compiled the following list of faculty frivolity and or fervent fire — which proves that Augsburg has not only intelligent professors but occasionally humorous ones as well. Chuck obtained these responses after sending out a questionnaire. He says, The reason why only these departments are written about is that they were the only ones who turned in any information which could be used in the yearbook. We thank those persons who cooperated in this search for information. Chemistry Department Favorite Chemical: People in general and students in particular. Although they do not constitute pure compounds (in any sense), but rather mixtures, they have by all odds the most interesting properties. Favorite Formula for an Explosive: (LOVE)2 No explanation needed, we trust. The Chemist We Most Admire: WIFE (What's the matter — you crazy or something?) Specialties: Cj — Constitutions, Committees, and Confusion. Philosophy Department. Dr. Reichenbach's Most Admired Philosopher and Why: Philosophers in general are difficult to particularize. I Kant say Hume is Moore interesting than another to Reid. In fact, philosophers frequently Hegel over the Marx of a great philosopher. Locked in mortal combat, til they have become White headed, with none to Bayle them out. Bon I venture to guess, if I must come to a Broad conclusion, that one must begin with Socrates. However, he is only the tip of the iceBerg, so naturally we must Aver or esteem others as highly as him, though to appreciate other philosophers is important. Cusa to Play to favorites would tend to make some more August than others, that is, to place de Cart before deWulf. Education Department A Personal Statement About Education from the Department Chairman, Lauretta Pelton: Learning how to learn is each person’s challenge. I ask a question: Is the classroom as we know it the best approach for the majority of people? Mathematics Department The Respective Specialties Within the Depart- ment are as follows: B. Durkee — College mathematics, geometry, and systems. 6 I t D. Gulden — Systems Design. H. Follingstad — Complex variable analysis, research on math models of physical systems and links between mathematics and the other liberal arts. Foreign Language Department The Favorite or Most Common sayings of the professors by language division. Spanish: M. Kingsley — Que va! No tengo mada que declarar! — (I have nothing to declare). G. Rozentals — se me escapa — (it escapes me). F. Franco — Oops — Ay! (It loses much in translation). Greek: H. Nakamura — A phrase heard regularily by his students is — That is not quite right. French:R. Aaskov —A common expression of hers is — I'll put it in the Language Lab — which reflects her participation in that area. M. Johnson — Aspiring French students often hear her say —Oh la la — translated — Wow Norwegian: L. Hansen — Fanken daske, his favorite phrase may literally be translated into Uff da. German W. Oyler — Man muss noch Chaos in sich haben, um einin lanzenden Stern gebaren zu konnen. — One must still have chaos in one's soul in order to give birth to a dancing star (creativity). D. Steinmetz — Ich bin gesund, das heisst, ich bin nicht krank — I am healthy, that is to say, I am not sick. V. Juanlinins — Wer immer strebend sich bemuht, den konnen wir erlosen — Whoever makes a striving effort, he will win. Music Department Stephen Gabrielsen commented on his favorite composers in several types of music, they were: Opera: Verdi, Wagner, Puccini, and Mozart. Symphony: Beethoven, Brahms and Bruckner. String quartet: Bartok. Choral: Bach, the Russians, and Knut Nystedt. 1975 Big News: Lowell Brandt joined the Auggie staff as Campus Pastor, Oscar Anderson accepted his third term as Augsburg College President, Kenneth Bailey resigned as Dean and Vice President of Academic Affairs to rejoin the Philosophy Department, Joyce Pfaff of the Health and Physical Education Department was named to the position of honored faculty member by the 1975 graduating class. 7 bruce gildseth president oscar anderson An impressive physical plant on some remote hillside is not this college's attraction. To paraphrase: Bricks do not a college make, nor ivied walls a school.' Here are people who are open, cooperative, receptive and energetic. Here is an academic program with excellence and excitement. I lere are opportunities to be educated by an urban world full of human achievement and creativity. Here are values stressed and hopefully exemplified. I lere the Spirit of God is more important than a sophomoric school spirit. No place is perfect. There are no angels around here, just people, most of whom want to make this a good place to live and learn.

Chinwag cooks include Jeffie Eide, Jim McHugh, Alice Johnson, Sue Bernard, and Melita Fossum. wm I go through the Center about four or five times a day — between classes, after eating a sugar cookie in the ChinWag did you know they cut the sugar in HALF because of the sugar shortage? Anyway, I go through alot, and everytime, I check my P.O. It's usually stuffed with some intramural ditto or an announcement about an LVE meeting or something neat like that. The worst is when it's empty. That seems to be the usual discovery. individual's experience . . . Agonies and ecstasies of Augsburg College. Four years of them for me and many others. Hardly a day goes by without them - those little events that build us up, drag us down, or just leave us sitting wondering “what it's all about. Oh! the agonies! Those close defeats. Those terrible winters. Lost loves. Failed tests. Those friends that either drop out or flunk out or freak out. The greatest agony of all for me was when the Electric Fetus moved from walking distance to miles away. And ECSTASY! Parties, dances, victories, and the like. Getting the grades when you deserve them. Coming back in the fall and seeing the old gang together again. Living through those drab, dirty Minneapolis winters to see that beautiful green spring, then just sitting around enjoying it. And people. People, people, people. I swear it's an epidemic around here. It's probably people that really keep this place glued together, even when it seems like the whole place is going right down the tube. Beyond the agonies and ecstasies, I guess it all boils to people, and '74-75 is no exception to the rules. But what of this year's crop of people? What makes them thing they should have a yearbook? What happened to who around here, and what was so special about it? Well, starting with the faculty, who can forget the one and only Jerry Gerasimo — bearded wonder, philosopher, and poet of Augsburg College. Or Arlen Gyberg, the part-time chemist, part-time “Melby Marauder. Or Miss Durkee with her concise, almost perfect, approach to mathematics. And the rest of them. Morici, Palosaari, Rick Nelson, the list going on and on. And the staff. Who could possibly forget them? All those Augsburg “dart-boards, catchers of tons and tons of flak every year. Carl Stromer and his inventive new dishes to stretch his food budget. And the ever- smiling Millie Nelson. And Jerov Carlson, darting here and there, spreading his good nature around. And the janitors, and the maintenance men, and the new Graphics Center. This list doesn't want to stop either. And those athletes, disgusting jocks thev e been called, giving their best for the Maroon and Grav, even though it's sometimes not enough. Steve Swanson getting carried off the f X, field, done for (he season, but still finding enough energy to scream encouragement to his teammates not yell, but scream. Those champion wrestlers, starving an week, just so they can crank on someone during the weekend. Record- setting Jimmy Sviggum. Those champion women volley-bailers. Freshmen stars, unsung seniors like Mark Bengston, and those coaches, putting together another winning season. Ingman “living his drama. The fresh new faces combining with the old ones, coming together in that old Little Theater, which despite its much maligned status keeps turning out great plays and great performers. And music people. Anne Mollison and Pete Hendrickson directing the choir towards Norway. Paul Walthour and Pat Siegfried combining their talents to put on JC Superstar. Merri Lee Klemp's free day in New Orleans. And all those notes and solos and song and tours which add up to another year — another banner year — in the Music Department. Drama people. Ed Saxton zipping back from the St. John's game to make it onstage in time for the show. Meticulour Ailcne Cole, turning out more successful plays. Cool, calm Eric and the center, frequently the game room and the Chin Wag and the library. And people in dorms and houses. Those students exiled to West Flail. Coed living at lota. Doug Klungtvedt selling religious books. Ruth Asper behind the library counter. And the cast of hundreds at Rho blouse for those rollicking parties. The communications staffs and the student government. Mueller and Larsen, proposing, and sometimes implementing Augsburg legislation. Pam Johnson searching for more noon-time talent. Rick Thoni's tutoring crew. Pam Lien and Bill Belknap turning out the ECHO. Dave Halaas's RC “Yes people and their 6:30 Wednesday morning meetings. Ralph Crowder helping minority students. KCMR DJ's like Bill Robinson and Brad Forsythe “getting down with the music. And what about the biggest crew of all, just your plain old everyday book-totin' students. Stan Hatcher and Barry Baldwin shooting pool. The Culla regulars.. Delores Kotschwar always walking over to Wilson Library. And all of those commuters, lounging around the campus An entire year of experiences and people, making long days short and short days long. Those agonizing days which turn into graffiti or depression before blossoming into ecstasy. The agonies and ecstasies of Augsburg College. The agonies and ecstasies of 74-75. — copy by Brad Lundell — Mitchell Aase, Maria Abreus, Stella Abwao, James Agrimson, Roberta Aitchison, Steven Al- brecht, Ihomas Allison, Bradley D. Anderson.

I've always kind of floated around; sometimes hanging out with music people, other times with basketball players in my house. But I have never really identified with one particular group. I've always been glad that it worked out that way. There are times, even now, when I am care- ful not to become too attached to one group of people. I do that because I enjoy the freedom which I feel in not being classified. People who are associated with one group lose some of their individuality to the group identity. People develop expectations for how members of a group will act. Even people within a group have ex- pectations of each other. By never being in- cluded I've enjoyed quite a bit of freedom from the expectations of others. The funny thing is that I really need people. How, if I need people, am I able to stay free of groups of people? I think I've been able to do that because of the unique atmosphere which exists at Augsburg. There is a sense in which everyone who goes to Augsburg belongs to the same group. I have been able to meet my needs for interaction with people without being label- ed or classified as anything but an Augsburg student. I don't know if this is something unique to Augsburg, but I don't think I would feel the same if I was over at the U’of M and labeled a University student. When I walk over to the U, the people I meet will not look at me (even when I'm wearing a Gold Country cap). They examine the contours in the landscape or study the subtle changes in river currents, but they don't look at me at all. When I walk around Augsburg, people look me right in the eyes. And sometimes, people I don't even know say, Hi! The difference between the U people and the people at Augsburg is that Augsburg students share experiences that are found only at Augs- burg. We stood in the same (expletive deleted) registration lines on September 4 and paid the same tuition — somehow. I can remember hearing Ingrid talking Quanbeck into letting her take Judaism. I'm a senior with a double major in Religion and Library Science and I’m going to India this summer and I’m pre-Sem and if vou don't let me take this class I won't be able to graduate! 62 After a couple of semesters we get to know people by the classes we had with them. Many of us had Cinema Arts from Palossari or one of Stenshoel's political science killers. “Hey, didn't we have film-making together last In- terim? If you don't know someone in class the first day you can be sure you will before long. After you get to know someone you can skip class together and have a mixed cone in the Chin Wag — remember the green vanilla on Saint Patrick's day? I don't think you can measure the effect that all of these shared experiences have on us. They don't make any obvious impressions on our personalities. But I do think that all of the things that happen to us, even the fact that we all walk along the same paths and through the same buildings, kind of seeps into our bodies and creates a sense of belonging. The effects of this do not always show them- selves because there are so many other things which get in the way. I have had some experi- ences, like during the Mueller - Doebbert cam- paign or during the clashes over the housing lottery system, where a lot of people were com- pletely opposed to my point of view. Sometimes it would get so bad that we really had trouble talking to each other — we just didn't. The sad thing, for me, is that we let our selfishness and pride disrupt the good feelings. There is enormous potential on this campus for a real community to be built, but we waste our op- portunities. If we used half of the energy that we spend tearing each other down, trying to de- velop open and honest relationships with the people around us, this could be a dynamic, sup- portive environment to live in. I've sensed this potential, especially this year. I feel accepted by many people here, re- gardless of my outspoken ideals or misguided mo- tives. Even the people who I've had conflicts with mean more to me than those people I meet at the U. I don't know if you'd call it trust or dependence or kinship or what, but underneath the surface disagreements is a feeling that al- lows me to be comfortable with Augsburg people. Everyone here, the individuals, the groups, comes together within a certain framework that links us. But it's only the bare bones of what could be. We need to build a full community at Augsburg, one which gives each individual the support and acceptance (s)he needs to make it through. We need to put some meat on the bones. 63 Copy by Charley Ingman This is your yearbook. You experienced your fall long hours in (he library. Your voice was the 1974.

A basic quality of Interim is that it gives the student the opportunity to continue his education at Augsburg in a different style. This may entail transferring to Pacific Lutheran or touring China. On the local scene, an internship at the Capitol aiding a state senator or studying rats at Northwestern Hospital were possibilities. Some students attended new and different classes such as Contemplative Listening and Contemporary Living taught by Sister Albertine, a Protestant nun from Switzerland. But for the student who stayed on campus and took a course in the tradi- tional fashion, he had to find ways of beating the January cold and use up the extra time allowed him. The following depicts some of the activities and climates involved in Interim at Augsburg. Copy by Jeff Polkinghorne Layouts by Karen Hinsverk fUMV 89 93 Spring, 1975. I said. Spring 1975.
