General Information Dr. Martin Luther College was founded in the year t884. by the German Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Minnesota, mainly with a view to supply min History isters of the Gospel for the mission fields of that church body. Besides the theological, the institution provided for a normal, a classical, and an academic training. In the year 1893, the Minnesota Synod combined with the Synods of Wisconsin and Michigan to form a Joint Synod. Dr. Martin Luther College was then changed into a Lutheran normal school with a two years' course and with a three years' preparatory department.-A com mercial course, which originally had ·also been offered, was discontinued in 1901 by resolution of the Joint Synod. In its stead, a four years' ancient classical course was introduced in 1903. By ai:tion of the synod at its sess10n 111 1919, the preparatory department has been enlarged into a high school, offering an ancient classical and a normal prepara tory course. To this a· two-year normal course has been added. By a resolution of the synod, the instruction m the institution is also open to young ladies. * The college grounds are located in the southwestern part of New Ulm, on a beautifully wooded range of hills. forming a fine natural park. The city may be Location reached by the Chicago & Northwestern Rail way (Winona-Tracy division, and "old" line via St. Peter), by the Minneapolis & St. Louis Railway (Winthrop-Storm Lake diYision), and by Highways 7 and 15. • See Pages 58-59 for l\Iaps.

Girls' Dormitory
RECITATION BUILDING.
This building contains the class
Equipment rooms, the library, and the faculty room.
In the basement are the kitchen, the dining room, afld the apartments for the steward and !,is help. BoYs' DORMITORY. This dormitory, a four-story fire proof building, modern in every respect, can, with the addition just completed, accommodate about ISO pupils. The living rooms and sleeping rooms are supplied with electric light and steam heat. In each story of the building are wash rooms with complete toilet arrangements. GIRLS' DORMITORY. By action of the Joint Synod of Wisconsin and Other States, the former director's resi dence was converted into a girls' dormitory. This spacious fifteen-room house affords dormitory facilities for thirty girls. Music HALL. This building is furnished, for practice and concert purposes, with a magnificent two-manual pipe organ of 24 speaking stops, provided with all modern improvements in the technical and tonal line. Besides, it contains the following instruments: a fine Steinway grand piano (a donation) for concert purposes. a piano for choir practice, and nine valuable, mostly new pianos for pupils' practice; furthermore, various instruments for the orchestra: cello, bassviol, viola, etc. PIANOS AND ORGANS. In addition to the musical in struments mentioned above, the institution has, located in other buildings, five pipe organs and six pianos for practice purposes. LTBRARY. The library is situated on the main floor of the recitation building. At present it contains over 4500 volumes, catalogued according to the Dewey Decimal System. It is constantly being enlarged through purchases and donations. LIBRARY OF Music. This library contains 800 volumes on Church Music, vocal and instrumental training. LABORATORIES. The science lecture room is equipped for the necessary demonstrations in the various subjects. The students' laboratory contains 56 individual chemistry IO
desks and physics tables, also the most modern apparatus and equipment. SPECIMENS. The institution possesses a collection of mounted birds and other animals, as well as of other natural objects. Donations, large and small, will be gratefully received. TRAINING ScHOOL. The local St. Paul's Lutheran Congregation permits our training department to use its graded parochial school. Thus, in connection with our normal department, we have a regular training school consisting of scholars from the second, third, fourth, and fifth grades. Here each member of the Second Year Normal instructs about three weeks under the supervision of a critic teacher. After Easter these students also conduct a beginners' class. CAM rus. The college grounds comprise twenty-four acres, a part of which, being naturally wooded, is reserved for park pnrposes. another for baseball and tennis. GYMNASIUM. The gymnasium is located in the basement of the boys' dormitory. It furnis hes the pupil,; opportunity for bodily exercise. FARM. A small farm is operated in connection with the school, furnishing the required milk, eggs, and vegetables. Various bequests have been made to Dr. Martin Luther College. Of these the following have been combined into one group: John Horris berger, $r,ooo; Anna Funds Reim, $400; N. N., per Rev. A. Ackermann, $roo; Louise Wellendorf, $288.73; Carl Tolzmann, $200; Eva Anding, $2,318.88; H. Burmeister, $roo; John Schwartz, $2,000. The total amounts to $6,407.61. The proceeds of this fund are used to purchase teaching apparatus. The interest of another fund of $1 ,055 , $r,ooo of which was donated by Rev. A. Ackermann and $55 by the late Mrs. F. H. Retzlaff, accrues to the library. NORMAL CouRSE. The Ev. Luth. Joint Synod of Wisconsin and Other States has made this institution a teachers' seminary and has thereby estabObject and Aim lished as its chief aim the training of able teachers for Lutheran parochial schools. Accordingly a course of study, as outlined on pages 24ff, has been arranged and carried out. 12
• CLASSICAL COURSE. In order to meet the particular requirements of the congregations in Minnesota an~ of those farther to the west, a college preparatory course 1s offered 10 young men who wish to prepare for the holy ministry. This gives them an opportunity to spend their first student years nearer to their home. * PREPARATORY. For the accommodation of pupils who have not completed the eighth grade, a preparatory class had been arranged. This class, however, was not considered an integral part of the school's course, and for the year 1927-'28 it will be discontinued.
* GENERAL EDUCATION. Our high school classes constitute an excellent school where young people find an opportunity for perfecting their general education. We claim a positive superiority for our school because all goyernment and instruction are of a distinctly Christian character. D1v1NITY STUDENTS. All students enrolled 111 these c~urses, with the desire to prepare for service in the church, are considered as divinity students. ANNOUNCE~rnNT. New scholars shonld be announced os early as ;,ossiblc, so that all necessary arrangements for . the new school year may be E n t ranee R eqmrements • made. Announcements, with full details as to the stude11t's previous studies, are 'co be made to the president to whom also new students upon their arriya], should p~csent themselves. ' TESTIMONIALS. Upon entering the institution, a student will be expected to submit to the president satisfactory testimony of his good moral character. Students from other institutions must furnish proof of their honorable dismissal. ADMISSION. In addition to having mastered the tasks of an ord· . h G . mary e1g th grade, an elementary knowledge of erman is required. For applicants who are not able to tak_ e up our regL1lar German course specia · 1 arrangements w,ll be made .

Upon entering the institution a scholar will be examined as to his knowledge and accordingly assigned to one of the classes. To this assignment the scholar will self-evidently submit, even if he entertained h igher expectations. It should not be his aim to complete the course in less than the prescribed time. Rather put this down as a safe rule: Better to study a year more than to be - a dabbler. Dr. Martin Luther College, being a Christian school, can not sanction dabbling, a thing which in itself militates against the Christian spirit. A scholar can enter a higher class only after having mastered the tasks of the previous one and having furnished proof therefor. REGISTRATION. All new students for the next school year will present themselves to the Committee on Credits on Wednesday, August 31, 1927, immediately after the opening service at 9 a. rn. They will then be assigned to their . respective classes. WoRo OF GOD. As the institution is under the control of, and is supported by, the Ev. Luth. Joint Synod of Wisconsin and Other States, it is underDiscipline stood that the Word of God is to rule supreme and that the discipline of the school is to be shaped in accordance with this norm, Regular attendance of the forenoon services in the local St. Paul's Lutheran Church is required of all students. Residents of the dormitory, unable to attend, must furnish satisfactory excuse. PUNCTUALITY. In the interest of all concerned, it is expected that pupils arrange to be present at the beginning of each term. Tardiness causes loss ¡ of time in the classes and extra work for the instructors. This pertains especially to such pupils who intend to enter in September, because these may be required to submit to a preliminary examination. Please note the calendarium on page three of this catalog. - Every student is expected regularly to attend all classes. Absences are to be excused with the respectiye instructor: beforehand, if possible; otherwise afterwards. Absences from the city, necessitating the intcrruf,tio11 of schoolwork, will be permitted only upon reQ1tcst written by parent or guardian. IS
SUBSTITUTING. No student intending to take up school work ought to ' interrupt his studies without first notifying the president and getting his permission. Under no circumstances will scholars of the preparatory classes get permission for ¡ such step. All inquiries in this direction should not be made to the scholar concerned, but to the president. Assistants for summer schools must nbt be expected to take up work before the close of the school vear. During the school year an assistant will not as a ~ule be excused from ciasses for more than two weeks. ATHLETICS. All athletics are conducted under the supen¡ision of the athletics director, who is assisted by an athletic board consisting of seven students. By the order of the College Board of Directors competitive games with other schools are allowed only in basketball and baseball. Such games can be arranged only with the approval of the athletics director. This applies not only to the schedules of the college teams, but also to c:ass teams or other teams who wish to play local games. In order to be eligible for competitive athletics a student must. have the credits required for the preceding semester. MAIL. All mail addressed to students living in the dormitories must pass through the hands of the inspector, or his substitute, and be delivered to him by the post-office. This rule is necessary in order to guard against the influence of unscrupulous persons and concerns who especially attempt to rearh students with their demoralizing letters and printed matter. Parents a~d guardians. in sending pupils to this institution, thereby give their consent to this rule. This also includes students who are of age. BOARDING WITH PRIVATE FAMILIES. It has been found by experience that the regularity of dormitory life can, as a rule, be maintained only very imperfectly in private families. If parents or guardians wish their boy or girl t~I board in a private home, the institution must decline a responsibility for him, or her, except during recitations.
Ev. Luth. St. Paul's School - Home of our Training School
FACILITIES. Board and lodging can be had in the college building. Each pupil who wishes to live in the institution must provide himself with mattress, Board and Tuition pillow, quilt, blanket, sheets, comb, shoebrush, towels, and trunk. The institution furnishes bedstead, table, bookrack, and a chair; but these articles remain college property. - The dormitories will be open to students one day before school-opening and one day after school-close. This rule covers both the longer summer vacation and the two shorter recesses for the Christmas and Easter holidays. BOARD. Each male student residing in the dormitory pays to the director for board, fuel, light, etc., $120 per year; girls pay $r8o annually. One half of each of these amou nts is to be paid at the beginning of the first semester; the other, at the beginning of the second semester. In case of absence or discontinuance no refund of board money or tuition will be made unless the amount so due is at least $6. Male students of the First and of the Second Year Normal Classes, who are preparing for work in the parochial schools of Ev. Luth. Joint Synod of Wisconsin and Other States, are exempt from paying board. Board and room with private families may be obtained for sums ranging between $5.50 and $6.50 a week. TUITION. No tuition is charged to divinity students.Students who seek only a general education, but who will not enter the service of the church, pay tuition at the rate of $4.00 per month. These scholars, together with those of the classical course, must also pay for instruction in instrumental music. FuEL. All local students pay $ro a yea r for fuel. This money is due November r. All students li ving in the dormitories pay annually fees amounting to $8 ( women st udents $7). These fees Fee are distributed as follows: deposit and incidental $2; s athletics $2 (women students $1); reading rooms $1; medical care $3. All other students are not obliged to pay the medical fee of $3. This makes the amount due from them $5. IQ
Bashctball Team
In explanation of the above fees we g11·e the following particulars: DEPOSIT AND INCIDENTAL. Any damage to property of the institution must be made good by the guilty one. In case this person cannot be found out, the student body must bear the expense. Every student, upon entry, is therefore required to deposit the sum of $r as security against damaging college property. After deducting ex penses for suc.h repairs, the balance of this money will be refunded at the end of the school year. There is also a charge of $r for incidental expenses. LABORATORY.
Students taking Chemistry pay $5; those taking Physics, $2. This amount Additional Fees must be paid to the instructor in charge before November r.
Musrc. By special resolution of the Joint Synod all students tailing the Normal Course will be required to pay 50 cents a lesson, or approximately $I7 a year, for in instruction in instrumental music. This, sum, however, will be refunded in full if the scholar completes the entire course and enters upon the work in our parochial schools. PROMISE. The expense for board as well as for fuel is figured quite low for divinity students, the synod being ready to make up i-n cash all shortage in the household. In order to protect the institution as much as possible against any loss from such pupils who, after having for years enjoyed the advantages ·offered to them, eventually, without any return service to the church, turn to some other vocation, the board of regents adopted the resolution that all divinity students upon entering the institution be obliged to give the following promise: In consideration of the opportunities offered me by Dr. Martin Luther College, I promise upon honor that I sh all not discontinue my studies at that ins,titution except by the advice, or with the consent, of the faculty and that, after finishing the Normal Course, I will submit to the decision of the assig11111ent committee of the Ev. Luth. Joint Synod (unless other arrangements have been made) and assume a position as teacher in a parochial 21
school of the Lutheran Church, if offered to me. If I should not continue my st udies to the end of the course, except for a rea son sa nctioned by the faculty, or if, after graduation, I turn to some other occupation, I promise to make such returns to th e treasury of the college for boa rd and tuition as may be considered equitable.

Credits Required for Graduation A credit equals a course given at least five times per week throughout the year. HIGH SCHOOL COURSE. Eighteen credits plus Religion are required. Scholars will be promoted from class to class on a minimum of 4 credits, but will have to make up failures according to regulations laid down by the faculty. The passing mark is "70", and the average of the semesters will be used in the promotion of scholars from grade to grade. The Teachers' and Pastors' Courses are obligatory as outlined on pages 24 uml 25. Scholars having been graduated from the public high schools must enter our twelfth grade - provided they furnish a sufficient number of acceptable credits - since they are unable to meet our requirements in such- subjects as Religion, German, Music, etc. A diploma will be awarded upon the completion of this course.
