Dr. Martin Luther College, now owned and operated by the Wisconsin Evangelical Luthe-ran Synod, was founded by the Evangelical Lutheran i;ynod of Minnesota and other States.

During its 1883 convention the Minnesota Synod resolved to establish an educational institution for t he purpose of supplying ministers of the Gospel to its congregations and mission fields. Besides the ministerial course, other courses were to be included in the curriculum.

HISTORY

i:t)rough the zea l of the Rev. C. J . Albrecht , pastor of St . Paul's congregat ion in New Ulm and president of t he Minnesota Synod, the new co llege was locat ed in New Ulm and was ready fo r ded icatio n and occupancy in t he fa ll of 1884.

The second phase of the history of t he college began eight years lat er . In 1892 t he Minnesota Synod entered into a close fe d eration with th e like-minded Wisco nsin and Michi gan Sy nods for a mo re effective stewardship of resources. At that t ime Dr. Martin Lu t her Co ll ege became the teacher ·t raining college for the newly fo rmed joint synod, a function it has fu lfilled without interruption for more t ha n ninety years.

After t he Nebraska District Synod had become the fourth member of the joint synod in 1904, t he federation developed into an organ ic un ion in 1917. This un ion, t hen known as the Evangelical Lutheran Joint Synod of Wisconsin and ot her States, later, in 19 59, assumed the name of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Sy nod.

At th e ti me of the fede rated merger, a three-year preparatory curriculum and a two-year coll ege course were ado pted, both of wh ich were open to male students only . The need for wome n t each ers caused t he school to· become co-educationa l in 1896.

The preparat o ry department was expanded to a fou r-year h igh school in 1919, while the two-y ear college curriculum was retained with the hope of expansion. to a four-y ear college as soon as possi ble. The fi rst of two steps in expansion was realized with t he graduation of the first t hree-yea r class in 1931. The completion of· t he ex pansio n was thwa rted to such a de gree by t he effects of the great depression and by World War 11 t hat the add ition of t he fo urt h year was not accompli sh ed u ntil 19 50. The fi rst four -year class was grad uated in 1954.

As a resu lt of a synodical resol ut ion in 1962 the separation of th e high .school from the col lege, each un d er its own admi n istratio n, was effected . Both sch ools continued t o use t he sam e faci lities. In 1978 the Synod resol ved to m ove the high school t o Prairi e du Chi en, Wi scons in . Dr. Mart in Luther Col lege is now a four-year t each er educat io n coll ege wh ich grants the degree of Bachelor o f Science in Education.

PH1LOSOPHY

The existence and function of Dr . Martin Luther College rest on unalterable convictions regarding man, as drawn from the God-given Holy Scriptures.

AND

We believe man to be the crown of God 's creation. As such, he was made to know God and to share His comPURPOSE pany. He was endowed with gifts that permitted him to become acquainted with, enjoy the use of, and find cause for wonder and gratitude in everyt hing th at God fash ioned for human service and delight .

We also hold to the reality of sin, a pers istent hered itary wickedness in man wh ich compels him to oppose h is graci o us Creator . In sin we f ind the underlying cause for all evil. Sin ru ptured th e Crea tor's design fo r ma n, fr us trat ed th e creati o n's service t o m an, an d fixe d o n man a gu ilt and he lpl essness fro m wh ich God al o ne could set h im free. This He did t hrou gh His Son , the God -Man J esus Christ, who ent ered hu man history and restored t he Creator's eternal des ign fo r man. In the histo rica l verities of the person and wo rk of Jesus Christ as unfolded in the Scriptures, we find the bas is for our Christian assurance that man, the sinner was redeemed and reconciled to God to share His company in this life and in t he life to come.

As believers in Christ we count ourselves people of high privilege imbued with a gratitud e to our Savior-God that shapes our lives in every direction and that enables us to carry out our various God -given responsibilities: t o oursel ves-the duty to cu ltivate our pot ential ities of body and soul as d ivine gifts tb be used t o the glory of God; to our fe ll owman as our equa l before God-t he obligat io n t o proclaim the freedo m -bringing truth in Christ and to assi st hi m in wha t ever other manner we have op portun ity ; to the wo rl d apa rt from man-th e respect t hat re cognizes all created things as gifts of God to be invest ig 9ted, used , o r enjoyed in a mann er that h armo nizes with divine des ig n.

Th ese Christ-centered co nvict io ns gu ide us in every sphere of huma n thought and achi evement . Thus, we vi ew the stu dy of man and his culture, togeth e r w ith the pu rs uit o f other know ledge, as not on ly benef icia l but obl igatory . We h uma ns have been appointed lo rds of all things ; although weakened by sin, we are still enjoined to search out whatever is useful and wholesome in this life so that in our whole being we may continually draw nearer to the potential for which God made us .

10

We engage in this pu rsu it not merely for its own sake or to contr ibute to the kind of wisdom by which man hopes to overcome the deep problems of human ex istence on earth. Our pursu it of k nowledge is aimed primarily at growing in the wisdom which God teaches in His Word : first, that through the study of man and his culture we may see in broad context man's persistent weaknesses and failings, and his continuing need for the Savior; second, .that desp[te the crippling effects of sin we may appreciate the wide range of man's God-given talents for doing, thinking, and speaking what is beautiful, praiseworthy, profound, and mentally and emotionally satisfying ; third, that we may come away from this experience with a larger understanding of God's ways among men and a heightened awe for the majesty, goodness, and wisdom of God. These convictions rega rd ing God and man are cherished by the teachers and stu dents of Dr. Martin Luther College as well as by the members of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod who own and ma inta in the college. These convictions are the reasons for the existence of the Sy nod and all of its schools . Because these convictions d erive from d ivinely revealed truth, we count it ou r God given responsibility to sh are them with every man and to impress them on each new generation of the church. Indeed , because of these convictions, we equate education with Christian education, wh ich puts all learning and wisdom into the perspective of Christ an d His Word. Si~ce th is requires the service of Christimbued educators, all who are called to teach in the schools of our Synod are expected to share our Christ-centered convictions knowledgeably and to demonstrate them by the testimony of their lives. At the same time, our Christian duty to church and society obli gates us to staff the schools of the Synod with educa tors sufficiently competent in whatever other learn ing is necessary for meaning· ful nd responsible life in today's world . ThereforeDR. MARTIN LUTHER COLLEGE EXISTS TO PREPARE QUALi· } FIED EDUCATORS FOR THE TEACHING MINISTRY IN THE CHRISTIAN DAY SCHOOLS OF. THE WISCONSIN EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN SYNOD. To carry out th is assignment Dr. Martin Luther College has built its curriculum and its program of student life around the. proclamation of Christ in the Scriptures.

In the curriculum all subjects find their unity in th is proclamation, especially throug~ a select group of required re ligion courses which deal with the Scriptures as the record of God's acts among men and the revelation of God's truths for, : · men and for all time. These divine acts and truths are viewed and pursued

11

in the wider setting t,f ma n's history and cultural milieu through the ages because we hold th at the proper unde rstand ing of man requires us t o be conversant with the broad t heater of human affai rs, parti cul arly in those places whe re the _p roclamation of Christ has been histo ri cal ly most visible. Dr. Martin Luther College therefore offers one basic curriculum of general education courses in rel igion, music, science, mathematics, and the humanities; of area of concentration courses selected from one of the following: English, mathematics, music, science, and social studies; of professional education courses in the foundations , the practical methodology, and the art of teaching.

Through this program, Dr. Martin ~uther College desires 1. to strengthen in the student a consecrated spirit of love fo r God and His Word ; 2. to educate the whole person for faithful, capable , intelligent citizenship in today's world; 3. to permit the student some beginn ing opportunity at academic speciali zation both for i,ersonal experience and enjoyment and for wider service as a teacher ; 4 . to equip the student with the pedagogical skills and the practical training that will permit him competently to communicate Christian truth, knowledge, an attitude of wonder fo r the created un iverse, and love for God and fellowman ; 5. to assist the student in developing the understandings, attitudes, and skills that are necessary for meeting t he worship needs of the Synod's congregations, always keeping professional training in church music an int egral part of teacher ed ucat io n.

Primary responsi bil ity fo r the instructional program rests with the members of the facul t y who hold t heir office as accountable to God throu gh a divine call ad ministered unde r th e superintendence of t he church . In discharging this t rust, t he faculty recognizes a continuing responsibility for improvement through pri va te study, through further study at other places of learning, through attendance at meetings of scholarly societies, and through participation in various in-service programs on the campus. These are encouraged not only for personal satisfaction but also for effective classroom instruction. By demonstrating a respect for continued scholarship and by the example of personal dedication , the faculty hopes to encourage among the students the love for learning, the spirit of in quiry, and the cultivation of wider intellectual horizons that characterize a wholesome college atmosphere.

12

In matters regarding general student life, Dr. Ma rtin Luther College carries out its work on the basis of truths enunciated in the Word of God. Thus, the college is obligated to show concern for every student's well-being under Christ, and every student has the responsibility to give respect and obed ience to the school and its policies.

Christian citizenship at Dr . Martin Luther College is nurtured also through regular formal worship that draws its message directly from the God-given Scriptures.

Worship services are held every academic day to edify the whole college family and to rehearse divine truths in which school lea rning and life are un ified.

For the further training of the whole person under Christ, Dr . Martin Luther College encourages student participation in programs of physical and cultural activity, and in student government. These programs, intended primarily for the benefit of students, also serve, edify, and provide recreation for the entire campus family, the local commun ity.and the church-at:large. In their role of subservience to the school's chief task, non-academic activities are also organized and administered in conformity with the spirit of Ch rist.

In its total educational program Dr. Martin Luther College views its faculty as more than an instrument to aid students in acquiring knowledge. The faculty member is expected to serve as student adviser in academic matters and as Ch"ristian counselor in ,other capacities where assistance is desirable or mandatory.

Dr. Martin Luther College further sees the general well-beir ' of school and student body strengthened and preserved by strong and spontaneous faculty interest in all aspects of student l.ife-an interest which t he faculty shows by being sociable with students, by at tending or participating in student activities, and by setting students an example of a God-pleasing life in Christ.

Thus, in every aspect of school life, Dr. Martin Luther College seeks to fulfill its assignment: to furnish the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod ¡with teacher candidates thoroughly qualified for discharging the high responsibilities of Christian education in a manner that is God-ple~sing and worthy of the world's respect. Such preoccupation with teacher educc)tion awakens a variety of aux ii iary enterprises whereby the school and its faculty freely serve both their constituency and the general public . As the only teacher education institution of the church it serves, Dr. Martin Luther College recognizes an obligation to furnish educational leadership to that church in whatever manner the faculty's resources of scholarship and professional expertise can be utilized . Dr . Martin Luther College also stands ready to give of its time and its facilities to church and society wherever and whenever this may be done without sacrificing its assignment or compromising its Christian principles.

13

Consistent with its philosophy and purpose, Dr. Martin Lu • ther College in its regular sessions offers a four year curricu· lum in elementary teacher education, culminating in a degree of Bachelor of Science in Education and enabling graduates with full synodical certification t o teach in the Christian day schools of the Wis· consin Evangel ical Luthe ran Synod. Its summer sessions offer unde rgraduate courses, enr ichme nt co urses, and workshops . Its synodical certification proqram o ffe rs those wh o have o nly the re qu ired academic background an opportun ity to pursue the re ligio n and re lat ed co urses re qu ired to achieve th e status of a ce rtified t eache r in the Sy nod . Courses offered in t he summer sessions accommodate the m~elves also to t he cert ification program. It is primarily in the interest of sy nodica l ce rtif ication, as well, tha t a fourth program, that of correspondence study, has been inaugurated and is being expanded.

FUNCTION

LIFE General Policies Student Services Financial Aids Student Activities

SP I cllTUAL LIFE OF THE STUDE NT - Student life is to be Ch , isti a n life , an outward express io n of inward, Spirit-worked faith in Christ . Because such faith needs continuous nourishment, life at Dr. Martin Luther College is centered in the Word POLICIES of God. Students attend divine services at St . John's or St. Paul's Luthera n churches , the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod churches in New Ulm. These congregations also invite the students to commune regularly at their altars. Ch apel services are held in the morning and the evening of each school day in the chapel-auditorium. These devotions are designed to focus the Iight of the Word on student Iife and on the students' future vocation, as well as to meet their over-all spiritual needs: Students are expected to attend Sunday services and chapel services regularly.

GENERAL

CLASS ATTENDANCE - Dr. Martin Luth8r College re qu ires regular class attendance . Each absence from class is recorded an d must be accounted for by the student . The cal e nd a r for the school year determines class days and vacation per:ods. Early departures a nd late returns at vacation time are not to be requested unless emergen cies or very clear cut and acceptable reasons exist .

CONDUCT - A maturing Christ ian who is preparing for full -time work in his Savior's Chu rch is expected to exercise an increasing degree of self-dis_cipline and sound judgment . Hence it should not be r.ecessa ry to su rround him with a multitude of ru les and regulations . Nevertheless, fruitful preparation for service in the Church requires the proper environment wh ich develops from following certa in fundamental policies and procedures. These pol icies and procedures are summarized in the student handbook. Th e vice presiden t for student affairs, particularly in his function as campus pastor, concerns himself with campus life and activity so that they are consistent with a Christ ian profession. He and the dean of women, together with t he ir staffs, function to serve in the most effective ways the best interests of the individual studen t.

HOUSING - Except for those students whose home is in New Ulm, all housing is under college supervisior. . Since the dormitories are not large enough to house all students requiring resident accommoda tio ns, the college arranges for some offcampus housing . Students thus assigned pay the identical board and room fee to the college as those in the dormitories and are expected to conform to the same general policies . Dormitor ies are closed during Christmas and Easter vacations .

On graduation day, students are expected to be checked out of the dormitories by 5 :00 p.m. (Seep. 19 for information about individ ual dormitories.)

PERSONAL BELONGINGS - The co~lege provides bed and mattress for each student. Bes ides personal effects, t he student provides mattress pad, pillow, blankets, bedspread. The student also provides a desk lamp, unless assigned to Hillview or Summit Hall s.

31

The college cannot and does not carry insurance on the student's personal pos· sessions . If there is concern about such cove_rage, it may be advisable for the student to check with the family's insurance counselo r.

Linen service is available to all students for $32 .50 for the school year, payable in full at time of registration. Each student receiving linen service will be furnished freshly laundered, each week, two sheets, one pillow. case, two la rge bath towels, one small hand towel , and two wash cloths . The college feels that this is the most convenient , economi cal, and healthy method of providing the student's linen and towel needs and urges all resident students to take advantage of it . Students not using the linen servi ce will furnish and launder their own sheets, pillow cases, and towels. La u ndry fac ilities are available on the campus . Th e college opera1:es a bank system for the stude nts' convenience .

MOTOR VEHICLES - Use of motor vehicles by resident students is pe rmitted when in confo rm ity with establ ished polic ies . A req uest to re gister a motor vehicle is to be made of the vice president for student affairs at least two weeks before the vehicl e is to be brought to cam pus. Moto r vehicle privileges entail paym ent of each sem ester's· ·costs in ad va nce , a $15.00 registration fee, and proo~ of adequate insurance coverage for passengers. Mo re specific information regarding the, possession and use of motor vehicles is ava il able upon request from the office of the vice president for student affairs.

STUDENT SERVICES

ORIENTATION - An orientat ion progra m is conducted during the first days o f each sch oo l year and is continued at regular intervals during the f irst semester. The purpose of the program is to provide informat ion r~lating to student life and responsibil ities at Dr. Mart in Luther College . All in · coming freshmen and all transfer students are involved in this program .

COUNSELING - Each student is assi gned a faculty member as an ad viser. The adviser assists in select ing the area of concent ration and course electives. The stud ent is en couraged t o ut ilize every aspect of the counsel ing program . Personal problems may also be dis cussed with the adv iser as wel l as with the vice p res ident fo r student affa irs o r d ean of women , both of whom main t ain da ily office hou rs.

In keeping w ith the Christ ian family concept, grade repotts are sent to parents at the. end of each sem ester . In add ition, mid -semester evaluations of freshmen are provided, designed prima ri ly to indicate adj ustment to college life . Since tne coll ege is concerned about its students and their performance, preparing as they are for fullti me service in the chu'rch, and since students are accepted by the col· lege only upon written recommendation of t heir pastors , pastors of those stu· dents who are experiencing difficulties may be consulted in order to serve the students' spiritual and academic best interests .

32

HEAL TH SERVI CES - This unit is staffed by two registered nurses who have o n fil e the compl eted health data and physical examinati on fo rms requ ired of all en teri ng students . A medical fee to cover aut ho rized med ical bills is assessed at the time of registration along with other fees. Th ere by medical cove rage, exclusive of interscholastic spo rts and ski club activiti es, is provided for those involved in any sanct ioned o n-campus or off -campus activities. Normally th e max imum covera ge is $1 00.00. For extended cove rage the co llege makes avai lable a volunta ry group med ical and hos pit al program offered by Blue Cross-Bl ue Sh ield .

DRA~TICS, CONCERTS, AND LECTURES - The academic co mmun ity of the college presents cul t ural and educational event s t hroughout the year .

Numerous musical events are scheduled : recita ls by staff members, so lo performa nces by adva nced students in orga n and pia no , and concerts by the cho ral and band o rganizations . From time t o t ime o utstandi ng artists are engag ed ..fo r campus performa nces.

In addit ion to freq uent d isplays by va rious academ ic d ivisio ns, t he college sponsors an an nual lyceum series, represent ing various fields ol interest .

Mankato State University, Gustavus Adolphus College , and co lleges in the Tw in Cities, the Un iversity of Minnesota , the Minnesota Sympho ny, the Walker Art Ce nter, the Tyrone Gut h rie Theater, and the annual vis it of the Metropolitan Opera Company offer excell ent opport uni t ies fo r cultural growt h .

Dr . Mart in Luther College, vitally concerned with the fi nancial problems of its students and their families, is well aware that r'!sing costs of education place a strain on many family AIDS budgels . Like most colleges, Dr. Martin Luthe r College believes that the primary responsibility for ~inancing a college education rests upon the student and his family . However, the c<>st of pre paring an indi vidual for work in the public ministry is shared by the Wisconsin Evangel ical Lutheran Synod through a subsidization of more than 50% of the annual operating cost . Fi nanci al assistance is available for every student who , without such help, would be unable to attend college . The ass istance consi sts of scho larships , grants-in-aid, loans, and work opportunities. Eligibil ity for ass istance is based upo_n need and academ ic promise. Need is de fined as t he diffe renct bet wee n i:he total education al cost and the am o unt which th e studen t and his fa mily should be abl e to provi de.

PIANO AND ORGAN - All students are required to earn two semester hours of credit in keyboard in the general education program. Keyboard work begins in the first semester of the freshman year and continues in consecutive semesters until requirements are met. Students begin keyboard work (piano or organ) at the level at which their previous experience places them. Placement is determined by the music faculty.

Students with little or no previous keyboard experience, who may not be able to meet the minimum requirements as set forth in Piano 1 and Piano 2,are permitted, if necessary, as many as two additional semesters to complete the work. The minimum requirements are designed to indicate sufficient facility to teach classroom music and conduct devoti'ons. A semester of work not meeting the minimum course requirements receives the grade of S if progress is satisfactory or U if progress is unsatisfactory.

Piano and organ instruction is given on an individual lesson basis. A minimum of fifteen one-half hour lessons per semeste r is required in order to earn credit.

Some instruction in beginning piano is given in a group situation with three class meetings per week .

Special considerations may allow a student to take double lessons in organ and piano courses. Permission for this privilege is granted by the instructor, adviser,

50

and registrar under t he guidelines fo r "credi t hour load" on page 27 of this catalog. Additional fe es are required.

Students having completed Piano 2 o r its equivalent may take organ instruction.

Credit toward graduation is granted for keyboard work required in the music concentration. Oth ers may elect key board work if they have a cumulative grade point average of 2.000 o r better and the approval of their adviser and the music division chairman.

Piano and organ ma y al so be ta ken for no credit by students who have completed the required keyboaro courses.
