MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT Reverend Mark G. Zarling
Greetings in our Savior Jesus,the Giver of every good and perfect gift! Hmm ... Nieman Marcus catalog or MLC academic catalog? Which would you pick up first? For dreaming big about extraordinary gifts, most would choose Nieman Marcus, its glossy pages reflecting expensive excellence. Imagine receiving such a treasure-you'd be stunned at the value, astounded at the enormity of the giver's love. You don't see expensive excellence in the MLC catalog? I do, and I don't just mean the expense of a college education. The courses of study contained here are the tools through which God will stretch your mind and touch your soul. Imagine what a generous Savior wants to give you. He has poured gifts and talents upon each of you. But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it. He has instilled an inquisitive intelligence, a passion for a particular field of study, an interest in trying something new. And he will use MLC as a fine jeweler, polishing your gifts, shaping you into a servant of the gospel, so that you may present that gospel, the pearl of great price, to others. God seeks to bring expensive excellence to his church-expensive, because you are bought at a price, excellence, because it is God who works in you to live and to act according to his good purpose. Imagine how God can use an Englishcourse to sharpen your ability to communicate the Word. Imagine how that geometry class can fill you with wonder at a Creator God who is not a God of disorder. Imagine-that Hebrew course will prepare you to listen to God speak in his inspired whisper. Imagine-that physical education course will help you marvel at your body, which is the temple of the Holy Spirit. Imagine-that history class will show you the hand of the One who controls all things, for God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church. Peruse this catalog, and dream big. Expensive excellence is captured on these pagesgifts from God, pathways to ministry. They are yours for the taking, that through you, God will bring his gift of life in Jesusto countless soulsin classrooms and pulpits, in hallways and highways, here and around the world.

FINANCING THE TRAINING
FOR MINISTRY
A decision to enroll at Martin Luther College involves not only a willingness to serve one's Lord in an area of Christian ministry but also a commitment of time and money. To help students reach that goal of Christian ministry, Martin Luther College maintains a comprehensive financial aid program consisting of grants, scholarships, loans, and work study.
A Family Responsibility The financial aid philosophy of both the federal government and Martin Luther College is that paying for a college education is primarily the responsibility of the student and his or her family. However, because student and family resources are not equal, MLC's financial aid program existsto help students.
Synod Subsidy The Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod provides a subsidy for the operating costs of Martin Luther College which reduces the cost of education for each student and is a way the WELSsupports its ministerial education students. Martin Luther College's tuition figure reflects this reduction; it does not appear on the student's financial statement or financial aid letter.
Need-Based
Financial Aid
Much financial aid may be described as need-based; that is, a student's family financial resources are considered. Need-based financial aid requires a need analysis (see Application Deadlines). Allowances are made for family size, for other family members in college, and for special expenses and circumstances. The need analysis may not be a perfect measure of a family's ability to meet costs, but it does serve to compare student and family resources and helps to distribute financial aid equitably. Need as it relates to financial aid does not necessarily mean needy. Many students qualify for some form of need-based aid, and in the 2009-2010academic year, 90%of the students at Martin Luther College received some form of financial aid. Unless a student applies for financial aid, no need-based aid can be awarded.
Merit Based Financial Aid The college provides scholarship opportunities to incoming freshmen entering fall semester who graduated from high school the previous spring. Eligibilityisdetermined by cumulative GPA and ACT score. Continuing students earn merit scholarshipson the basisof cumulative GPA from the previous year. See MLC's Financial Aid Frequently Asked Questions booklet for specific information.

Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic
Progress Policy
Federal regulations require Martin Luther College to establish satisfactory academic progress standards for student financial aid recipients. Martin Luther College's standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress measure a student's performance in the following three areas: completion rate, cumulctlve grade point average (GPA), and maximum time frame. The Financial Aid Office is responsible for ensuring that all students who receive federal, state, and institutional financial aid are meeting these standards. Progress is
reviewed at the end of each semester. The Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress apply for all financial assistance programs including Federal Pell Grant, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Work-Study (FWSJFederal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOGJ,Federal Family Education Loans (Stafford and PLUS),as well as assistance from the state and the institution. The only exceptions are Synod preparatory school tuition refunds and distance grants, which are based solely on being in attendance.
1. Cumulative GPA A student must achieve and maintain at least a minimum cumulative GPA according to the following chart in order to retain financial eligibility. Following semester I Following semester II Following semester III Following semester IV Subsequent semesters
1.70 1.80 1.90 2.00 2.00
2. Maximum Time Frame A student is no longer eligible to receive financial aid once the student has been in full time attendance for more than 150%of the number of semesters normally required to complete the student's program. A four-year program must be completed in twelve semesters. A five-year program must be completed in fifteen semesters. A two-year certificate program must be completed in six semesters. Students who attend lessthan full time will have the time of completion appropriately adjusted.
3. Completion Rate At the end of fall and spring semesters,a student's academic progress will be measured by comparing the number of attempted credit hours with the credit hours earned (Le., received a grade of A, B, C, or DJ. Thiscalculation includes any course for which the student has remained enrolled past the drop/add period. A student must earn 67 percent of credits attempted to maintain satisfactory academic progress. The following are considered in an evaluation of a student's satisfactory academic progress: • Withdrawn Courses: Under special circumstances a student may drop a course with the approval of the dean after the first two weeks of the semester and up to two weeks after midterm. The student's record then shows W for the dropped course and the dropped course is not counted in computing the student's grade point average. An unauthorized withdrawal from a class is recorded as an F. ThisF is counted in the grade point average. • Incomplete Courses: Incomplete grades are temporary grades given when a student doing otherwise acceptable work is unable to complete the course assignments for reasons acceptable to the instructor. A first semester incomplete must be converted to a permanent grade by mid-term of the second semester, a second semester incomplete by the end of the July summer session,and a summer sessionincomplete by mid-term of the firstsemester, or the permanent grade of Fisrecorded. • Pass/Fail Courses: Passing credits received for pass/fail courses are considered attempted and earned credits; failing grades in pass/fail courses are considered attempted but not earned.
•
• • • •
Repeated Courses: Classes for failed courses that are repeated because they are required for graduation are eligible for financial aid. Repeated courses are included in the calculation of attempted and earned hours. A student is allowed to repeat a course only once. Audit Courses: Audited courses are not considered credits attempted or earned. Remedial Courses: Remedial courses are included in the calculation of both attempted and earned hours. Transfer Courses: Transfercredits do not count in the calculation of the GPA, but they are included in the calculation of both attempted and earned hours. Change of Major Courses: If a student changes majors, the hours attempted under all courses of study are included in the calculation of attempted and earned hours.
4. Probation and Suspension Students who fail to achieve the cumulative GPA requirements for Satisfactory Academic Progresswill be on probation and will receive financial aid one additional semester. The probationary semester is meant to inform the student of academic problems and provide for corrective action. Students who achieve the GPA requirement for the number of semestersattended following the probationary semester will no longer be on probation. Students who do not achieve the GPA requirement following the probationary semester will be suspended from receiving financial aid for the following semester or summer sessionor for as long as the student is not in good standing. The Director of Financial Aid will send a letter to the student explaining the status. A student will be granted only one probationary period. 5. Appeals and Reinstatement To appeal the financial aid suspension,a student must submit to the Financial Aid Office a signed and dated letter of appeal explaining why financial aid should not be suspended. Acceptable reasons for an appeal include the following: • Medical • Family problems • Emotional problem • Learning disability • Interpersonal problems with friends, roommates, or significant others • Difficulty balancing such things as work, athletics, family responsibilities, and course work • Financial difficulties • Change in or addition to a program requiring more than the maximum allowable credits attempted • Other special, significant, or unusual circumstances Documentation verifying the situation may be requested. The Financial Aid Committee will consider the appeal and render a decision, which the Director of Financial Aid conveys to the student in writing. Denial of the appeal does not preclude a student from enrolling in subsequent semesters. Students will have their financial aid eligibility reinstated by the Financial Aid Office once all satisfactory academic progress standards are met.
6. Publicity

New students are informed about Martin Luther College's Satisfactory Academic Progress policy by information included in the MLC's " Financial Aid Frequently Asked Questions" booklet which is sent to all applicants.

Students accepted for admission are considered capable of meeting academic standards if reasonable accommodations can be made for their disability. It is the responsibility of students to provide written notification of the nature of the disability and the need for accommodations. Students must also provide resultsof formal testing and/or evaluation of the disability as well as historical documentation of having received accommodations in educational settings. The college may require additional testing or evaluation if the documentation isinadequate or older than three years with this cost borne by the student. Step 1. Students file the notification of disability and the request for accommodations with the academic dean for the student's area of study. The deans are the college's Section 504 coordinators. Step 2. Within ten (10) days of filing a notification of disability, the dean, director of the Academic Success Center, student and instructor(s) confer to develop reasonable accommodations. Responsibilitiesof the student as well as accommodations are outlined in this plan. Accommodations are designed to meet the individual needs of students, but they do not compromise curricular goals, performance standards, or course content. Step 3. If students do not agree with the accommodation to the Vice President for Academics.

Credit by Examination Students may request to test out of certain courses during the drop/add period. Requests are submitted to the chair of the division that offers the course. Ideally, the request should be made and the test taken before the semester begins. The deadline for requesting credit by examination is the last day of the drop/add period. Testsmust be completed within one calendar week after the request is submitted. Each test may be taken only once. A $25 fee is charged for each test with the exception of MUSOOOlIntroduction to Music. Since this
course does not apply for graduation credit, the exam is exempt from the $25 fee. A test grade of C or higher must be earned to receive credit for the course. A student cannot use credit by examination to earn credit for courses that were failed. The division chair, in consultation with the course instructor and the academic dean of the student's program, shall have authority to grant or deny the student's request.
Experiential
Learning Credit
An "experiential learning" experience is a previous learning experience in a classroom, on the job, in previous training, or through personal study that a student wishes to apply towards credit for a college course. The student must provide supporting documentation in the form of a portfolio. Three faculty members evaluate the portfolio for fulfillment of course objectives. Application forms may be obtained from the academic deans. A $50 nonrefundable fee ischarged for each application.
College-Level
Examination
Program (CLEP)
This College Board program allows students to earn college credit by demonstrating mastery of college-level material in introductory subjects. To determine if CLEPcredits will apply to MLC requirements, students need to contact the Records Office. The passing score for most examinations is 50. Foreign language examinations may require higher passing scores. The MLC code for reporting scores is6435.
Number of Non-Traditional
Credits Applicable
to Program
A combined maximum of 30 credits earned by Advanced Placement, from credit by examination, from experiential learning credits and from CLEPmay be applied to a degree program.
Transfer Credits Students who have completed coursework at other colleges are welcome to transfer credits from those previous undergraduate experiences. To qualify for transfer credit, courses must meet the following criteria. 1. They must be applicable to MLC degree requirements. 2. They must relate to a comparable MLC course, a rule of thumb being 2/3 similar material/concepts. 3. They must carry a grade of C or higher. Applicability of transfer credits is re-evaluated when students change their program of study. Questions about transcript decisions are directed to the respective Academic Dean (education or pre-seminary). Appeals of transcript decisions are addressed to the Vice Presidentfor Academics.
Transfer Students with a Bachelor's
Degree
Upon matriculation to Martin Luther College, transfer students who have previously completed a bachelor's degree at a regionally accredited institution need to complete only those general education credits that fulfill standards for Minnesota teacher licensure and synod certification.
Foreign Language
Testing and Placement
Students completing two, three, or four years of foreign language in high school and desiring to continue that foreign language at Martin Luther College write a diagnostic test before beginning their studies, l.e.. matriculating, at Martin Luther College. High school seniors who have submitted an application write the test in April/May of their senior year; transfer students write the test during the summer prior to matriculation. The score determines their placement in the language. Students who score adequately may receive credit by examination.
Enrollment at Other Institutions A student enrolled at Martin Luther College may take courses at other accredited institutions for transfer credit. Students should receive prior approval from their academic dean for courses they wish to take elsewhere. Enrollment concurrent with MLC's fall or spring semester at another institution is discouraged. A transfer course approval form is available online from the Records Office. Only courses with a C grade or better are accepted in transfer.
Cross Listed Course Although cross-listed courses are able to fulfill requirements in two areas, they can only be applied to one graduation/program requirement.
Credit Load Normal course load at Martin Luther College is 16-19credits per semester. 1. To be classified as full-time, a student must be enrolled in twelve credit hours or more. Part-time status students are enrolled in eleven credit hours or less. 2. The maximum number of credits a student may take is 19 credits per semester (excluding early field experiences, elective choir, band, piano, organ, voice, and instrument). 3. A student enrolled in any program may be permitted to carry one additional course for credit or audit (an overload) if (1) he/she has a cumulative grade point average of 3.00 or better and (2) the number of credits taken in any given semester does not exceed 21 (excluding early field experiences, elective choir, band, piano, organ, voice, and instrument). 4. If a student does not have a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or better and wishes to take an overload, the student may appeal the above policy in writing to the Vice President for Academics. 5. Pre-seminarystudents enrolling in a four-year degree program must carry a minimum of 14 credits per semester. Students may take any courses from the entire MLC curriculum to meet the 14 credits minimum. In special situations the academic dean for PreSeminary Studies may grant exceptions to this policy.
Withdrawals
from Courses
1. Within the first two weeks of the semester and with the approval of their advisor and the Records Office, students may drop or add courses. 2. With the approval of the dean, students may withdraw from a course after the first two weeks of the semester and up to two weeks after midterm. The dean will consult with
3.
4.
the student's advisor and instructor before making a decision. For these courses the student's record shows Wand is not counted in computing the grade point average. Any course withdrawal after the two weeks following midterm is an unauthorized withdrawal. An unauthorized withdrawal from a course is recorded as an F. This F is counted in the grade point average. Potential implications of withdrawing from a course are (1) the student's program may need to be extended, (2) financial aid may be affected, (3) family insurance rates may be affected, and (4) the student, if still a dependent, may have a tax issue.
Withdrawals from the College 1. The student who needs to withdraw from college must first report to the Vice President for Student Life for instructions on procedures. Policies regarding withdrawal from courses apply to withdrawal from college. 2. A student who withdraws from college after the first two weeks of the semester has W recorded for courses. See policy on Withdrawals from Courses. 3. When a student does not follow official procedures in voluntarily withdrawing from the college, a note recording the unauthorized withdrawal is transcribed on the student's permanent record. 4. Students who withdraw from college and later apply for readmission must fulfill the graduation requirements that are in place at the time of readmission.
AHendance and Absences 1. Martin Luther College requires regular class attendance of all students. Repeated absences may result in a lowering grade or loss of credit.

For full-time students to be in good academic standing, both the semester and the cumulative GPA must meet the minimum GPA requirements above. 2. For part-time students to be in good standing, the cumulative GPA must meet the minimum GPA requirements above. Failure to meet these minimums results in academic probation. The semester GPA requirement applies only to full-time students. 3. Summer session students are limited to nine credits; therefore, all summer session students hold part-time status. Grade points earned in a summer sessiondo not affect a student's previous semester GPA. Grade points earned in a summer sessiondo affect a student's cumulative GPA.
Review of Students At midterm and at the end of each semester the faculty reviews students' academic progress toward their degrees. As warranted, policies of academic notice, academic probation, academic exclusion, or advice to review continued enrollment may be applied. The faculty also reviews students' aptness for ministry - attitude, comportment, diligence, social skills,etc. As warranted, policies of formal expression of concern, formal review of aptness, and exclusion may be applied.
Probation 1. A student on probation must become a student in good academic standing by the end of the next semester of attendance. A student who fails to gain this status is required to withdraw from college. Application for re-admittance is considered after a lapse of one semester. A student required to withdraw at the end of the second semester isineligible to attend the subsequent summer session. 2. A student on probation discusseswith his/her advisor the desirability of reducing the student's course load as an aid in regaining good standing. If the course load is reduced, consultation between the student and advisor and the advice of the dean determines the coursers) to be dropped. In the interest of the student as well as in the interest of maintaining proper academic standards, a student on probation also discusses with his/her advisor the extent of extracurricular activities and outside employment.
Dismissal from College A student may be dismissed from college for academic lack of aptness for ministry. Dismissalsfor Academic
reasons, disciplinary reasons, or
or Aptness Issues
Grounds for dismissal:academic exclusion Policy: Students on academic probation for two consecutive semestersare dismissedfrom MLC. The policy of academic exclusion stands without the right of appeal. Students who are academically excluded may apply for re-admission after at least one semester away from MLC and will, if admitted, return on probation. A student who is academically excluded a second time is no longer eligible for re-admission. Grounds for dismissal:"told to discontinue" Policy: All advisors for education and staff ministry students meet twice a semester to review the academic progress and aptness for ministry of these students. Likewise, the advisors for pre-seminary students meet to review the academic progress and aptness for ministry of pre-seminary students. These meetings are held at midterm of each semester and at the conclusion of each semester. All advisors are faculty members. At these meetings the advisors may tell a student to discontinue enrollment for academic, attitude, behavior, comportment, or sociability reasons. Thismay occur even though the student isin good academic standing. A student "told to discontinue" may use the appeal/grievance in the Student Appeal of DismissalDecisions Process section.
process as described below
Grounds for dismissal:"Iacks aptness for ministry" Policy: All advisors for education and staff ministry students meet twice a semester to review the academic progress and aptness for ministry of these students. Likewise, the advisors for pre-seminary students meet to review the academic progress and aptness for ministry of pre-seminary students. These meetings are held at midterm of each semester and at the conclusion of each semester. All advisors are faculty members. The faculty, meeting as advisors, may dismissan academically eligible student for attitude, behavior, comportment, sociability, or diligence reasons. The judgment of the advisors may be that the student does not possessthe skillsnecessary to serve in the ministry. A student who is dismissed because the student "Iacks aptness for ministry" may use the appeal/grievance process as described below in the Student Appeal of Dismissal Decisions Process section. Grounds for dismissal:Unsatisfactory progress or unacceptable performance during student teaching Policy: Due to issuesof performance or conduct that may be detrimental to the welfare of students, and/or the integrity of Martin Luther College's student teaching program, a student teacher may be dismissed prior to the end of any student teaching term. The decision to remove is made by college administration in consultation with appropriate college personnel and local school officials.
Students dismissedfor unsatisfactory progress or unacceptable performance during student teaching do not have the right of appeal. Students who are dismissed before the end of the term are no longer students at Martin Luther College unless they participate in an alternate experience sanctioned and arranged by the Director of Clinical Experiences. The alternate experience receives audit status. Any student who has been dismissed before the end of anyone of the student teaching terms and wishes to student teach again must re-apply for student teaching through the regular process and will be granted or denied a second student teaching term by the Teacher Education Committee. The Teacher Education Committee's decision isfinal. A student who did not participate in an alternate experience and therefore is no longer a student at MLC must also re-apply for admission to Martin Luther College through the admissionsprocess in addition to re-applying for student teaching. Dismissal for Disciplinary Reasons Notification: A written report of a student's violation is brought to the Vice President for Student Life. Reports of violations are generated by, but not limited to, dorm staff, faculty, and security personnel. Conference: The Vice President for Student Life or his designate notifies the student of the report that has been filed and schedules a conference with the student to discuss the report. The Vice President for Student Life or his designate and the student who has been charged may choose to have another person present during the conference. Dismissal: The Vice President for Student Life may in his discretion immediately dismissa student upon his determination that such immediate dismissalis in the best interest of the safety or well-being of the individual, of MLC students, MLC faculty/staff, or others. The Vice President for Student Life may in his discretion convene a panel of at least two faculty members and two Student Senate members to determine whether dismissalis warranted. In such cases, the decision to dismissa student is made by the panel. Appeal: The student who is dismissed for disciplinary reasons may use the appeal/ grievance process as described below in the Student Appeal of Dismissal Decisions Process section.
Student Appeal
of Dismissal Decisions Process
Undergraduate students dismissed by MLC for "told to discontinue," "lacks aptness for ministry," or disciplinary reasons herein may utilize this Student Appeal of DismissalDecisions process. The general objective of an appeal is to bring new information that might not have been available or previously considered, to protest a procedural error or inconsistency in the appeal process, or to question the appropriateness of a decision. The appeal process/grievance procedure must be initiated within 10 calendar days after the dismissaldecision iscommunicated to the student. The appeal must be made in writing on the Student Appeal/Grievance Form located on the MLC website (www.mlc-wels.ed).
Appeals of dismissals for "told to discontinue," or "lacks aptness for ministry" will be considered by a panel consisting of the Vice President for Academics and at least one Academic Dean. Appeals for dismissalsfor disciplinary reasons will be considered by the Vice President for Enrollment Management. On the Students Appeal/Grievance Form, the student may request to present his or her appeal and supporting information in person. The request to appear in person will be granted or denied by the panel or Vice President for Enrollment Management at their discretion. If an in-person presentation is granted, it will be held at a time designated by the panel or Vice President for Enrollment Management, and the student may be accompanied by one other person. The student will be informed of the decision on the appeal in writing. The appeal decision isfinal.
Midterm
Reports
All first-year students, freshmen and transfers,receive midterm reports.
Semester Examinations Semester examinations are given the last week of each semester. The examination schedule with policies and procedures is published before the beginning of each semester. Attendance for examinations is required. The Minneapolis-St. Paul airport is a two-hour drive from campus so students are advised to schedule flights at least four hours after their last examinations. If emergencies prevent attendance at any examination, permission for an absence is obtained from the Vice President for Student Life. After permission is obtained, examinations are mailed to a proctor in the student's home area at a cost of $50 for each examination. Due to the need for exams to be returned in a timely manner, examinations are only mailed within the United States.
Student Classification Students are classified at the beginning of each semester according to the total number of credits earned. Transfer students are classified according to the number of credits transferred into Martin Luther College. Freshmen Sophomore Junior Senior Fifth Year Senior
0-28 credits 29-63credits 64-98credits 99-135credits 136+ credits
Advising The deans oversee the advising program at Martin Luther College. They maintain and make the college's various program plans available to students. Each student receives an academic advisor. The deans oversee any reassigning of advisors that may take place in subsequent years. The advisor servesas a student's first point of contact at MLC, meeting both formally and informally with each student at various points throughout the academic year. Although advisors aid students in being aware and informed about academic
policies and procedures, students ultimately bear the responsibility of finishing academic programs in the typical four or five years depending on their major(s).
Academic
Integrity
As a Christian community that draws its life from the gospel. Martin Luther College encourages its students to pursue academic excellence with honesty and respect for intellectual property. Because of its focus on ministerial training, MLC has an additional reason to emphasize academic integrity. It is one of many areas in which students are expected to demonstrate the faithfulness required of gospel ministers (1 Corinthians 4:1. 2). Course syllabi remind students of the importance of academic integrity and indicate how instructors will deal with infractions. Failure to meet expectations in this area may result in dismissalfrom the college (cf. Student Handbook). The procedure for academic dishonesty isas follows: 1. PreliminaryStep-Instructor determines the seriousnessand possible level of sanction. 2. Notice Procedure-Instructor communicates with the student, asks for a response, and informs the student of the appeal process. The instructor informs the academic dean and the Vice President for Academics. 3. Hearing-The student may appeal the sanction to the Vice President for Academics who arranges a hearing. The decision of the Vice President for Academics isfinal.
Eligibility for Extracurricular
Activities
1. Eligibility to participate in extracurricular activities requires that the student's cumulative grade point average (GPA) must meet the GPA requirements for academic good standing. However, a full-time student is ineligible if the student achieves a semester GPA lessthan 1.50. Martin Luther College activities that require eligibility are · Intercollegiate Athletics (including managing) · Intramural Board · Cheerleading (male and female) and Dance Groups · Theatrical Productions (performance, direction, production) of the Forum, · Children'STheatre, Reader'sTheater, Renaissance Faire,etc. · Extra-curricular Instrumental Groups (Jazz& Pep Bands) · Publications -- The Knight's Page and The Shield · Student Government (Student Senate, Dormitory Council. ClassOfficers) · AVCO · Official Recruitment groups · The Extended Tour of a curricular choir · The Extended Tour of a curricular instrumental group 2. An entering transfer student or freshman who is a high school graduate with no previous full-time college attendance shall be considered eligible for extracurricular activities provided that the student meets the following two academic requirements: a. The entering student has a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.00 in a high school curriculum which offers at least 14 academic courses in the subject areas prescribed in the entrance requirements. b. The entering student has a minimum composite score of 18on the ACT assessment.
An entering transfer student or freshman who does not meet these requirements shall remain ineligible until the student's cumulative grade point averages at Martin Luther College establish eligibility. 3. The academic standing of transfer students is determined by applying Martin Luther College's academic good standing standards to the grade point averages on the applicant's transcript.
Incompletes An instructor issuesthe temporary grade I (Incomplete) when a student doing otherwise acceptable work is unable to complete the course assignments for reasons acceptable to the instructor. A first-semesterIncomplete must be converted to a permanent grade by mid -terrn of the second semester, a second semester Incomplete by the end of the July summer session,and a summer sessionIncomplete by mid-term of the first semester, or the permanent grade isrecorded as an F.
Repetition
of Courses
1. Credit in a failed course that is required for graduation is earned either by repeating the course or by successfullycompleting an approved substitute. 2. A course may be repeated if a student desires to better his/her grade point average. Only the grade earned in repetition will be figured in the student's grade point average, but the original grade will remain on the record. 3. Courses taken to remove a failure or repeated to better the grade point average are taken only at Martin Luther College or, in extraordinary circumstances, through the college's Continuing Education Office.

Programsavailable are early childhood education, elementary education, and secondary education. To prepare qualified educators, the college offers a curriculum that leads to the Bachelor of Science in Education degree.

PRE-SEMINARY STUDIES The pre-seminary curriculum at Martin Luther College prepares men to enroll at Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary. This course of study stresses foreign languages. Hebrew and Greek, required of all students, are the original languages of Scripture. A student selects a non-biblical language option from a menu of German, Latin, a German/Latin combination, Spanish, or another spoken language. Lutheran theologians did much of their writing in German and Latin, while Spanish is the primary language of a growing segment of the American population. A student may also fulfill the non-biblical language requirement with achievement in another living language. In addition, the curriculum includes a selective liberal arts emphasis, with special attention given to literature and history. Academic
Credits Required for the Bachelor of Arts Degree Psychology/Philosophy English(including an area elective) Greek (including an area elective or GRK3001) Hebrew Non-biblical language option (student chooses one) German Latln Confessional Languages (German and Latin) Span~h Another spoken language Computer/Mathematics Music/Fine Arts Physical Education Religion Science History (including an area elective) Other Cultures Free Electives (four courses)

A Christian Community God created us to live together with him and with each other. In this world where sin separates and divides, we thank God for gathering us together as his people in Christ. God enables us to live together with each other in a Christian community and enjoy the blessings of worshiping, working, laughing, and even crying together. God gives us the opportunity, as a campus family, to encourage and admonish, forgive and befriend, help and assistone another. Common to all Christians is the struggle between the new man of faith and the old sinful nature. The new man wants to love God and people perfectly. The old Adam hates what is good and is completely selfish.God's Law uncovers and exposes sinful selfishness,and the Gospel of JesusChrist covers, heals, and comforts with the message of forgiveness won by Christ. Moreover, God's gracious forgiveness provides the power for godly living, striving, and maturing. When hundreds of people share close quarters on our campus, opportunity abounds for selfishnessto wound. But God the Holy Spirit uses his Word on our campus to turn us away from sin, turn us back to Christ in repentance and faith, and turn our hearts and hands toward others in love.
Worship Martin Luther College plans its day around the worship of our Lord. Morning and evening chapel services provide our campus family with opportunities to gather together around the Word, to sing, to pray, and to praise God. Students also have the opportunity to attend worship services at one of the area WELScongregations. In addition, the faculty provides organized opportunities for small group Bible study.
Class AHendance Martin Luther College expects students to attend their classes.The public ministry calls for faithfulness, and regular class attendance is one training ground for that important requirement. Illnessand emergency, of course, may necessitate absence from class. The academic calendar specifies when classes are in session.Students and their parents and families are expected to follow the academic calendar, particularly when making travel arrangements and vacation plans. Travel arrangements should be made after the last examination date of the semester. Those who need to make use of the Minneapolis airport should also become familiar with shuttle service times while making their flight reservations.
Vacations Dormitories and the cafeteria open the weekend before the first class in fall and close on graduation day in spring. Facilities are normally closed during the longer Christmas and spring breaks and the shorter Thanksgiving and Easter recesses.Students are encouraged to travel home during these holiday recesses. Those who live farther from home are encouraged to spend the break at the home of a friend. Students and parents are often concerned about winter travel back to Martin Luther College after major vacation breaks. When winter weather causes travel concerns,
students and parents are asked to check the MLC Portal (www.portal.mlc-wels.edu) for information concerning school closing, or phone the college information desk at 507-3548221.
Housing In general, college policy states that students live in the dormitories provided by our synod. Unmarried students live with a roommate in one of five residence halls operated by the college. If enrollment numbers are greater than dormitory capacities, then single students who are four or more years out of high school and have reached the age of twenty-one, may request an exemption from dormitory living, but the Vice-President for Student Life will make decisions regarding such requests. Married students arrange their own housing. The college provides a bed, mattress, desk, chair, dresser space, and wardrobe/closet for each dormitory resident. Rooms are equipped with connections for phone, cable TV, and the campus computer network. Students provide towels, bed linens and blankets, phone, study lamps, and trash containers. Appliances and extra furniture may be brought into the dormitories with the approval of the dormitory supervisor. Some items require a fee or deposit. Before bringing items to campus, please contact the Vice-President for Student Life. Dormitories are locked at all times. Students access their dormitory using their ID card which utilizesRFIDtechnology.
Meals Dormitory students are required to participate in the meal plan offered by the college. Our cafeteria offers continuous "7 AM to Midnight" service. While full entree items are available during traditional meal times, many other items are available at other times. Certain hot food items are also available from 7:30 PM until Midnight. Students with an ID can enter the cafeteria as often as their schedules permit. The cafeteria provides a variety of menu items and a number of specialty bars each day. Off-campus students may also purchase meals in the cafeteria.
Financial Services Martin Luther College operates an automatic teller machine on campus. The ATM permits withdrawals, but no deposits. The school's receptionist cashes personal checks (up to $50 per day) as well as payroll checks. Some local banks will cash personal checks for students who present proper identification and have an account with them.
Health Services New students submit a physician's health evaluation and a profile of medical history on forms provided them by the college. Proof of immunization (Diphtheria/ Tetanus within the past 10years, MMR, and Polio) isa legal requirement for campus residency. Martin Luther College requires that necessary medical and immunization forms be returned to the AdmissionsOffice prior to a student's arrival on campus.
An on-staff registered nurse meets the routine health needs of student. She holds regular hours on-campus each school day. New Ulm has a regional hospital and competent physicians in most fields. A student is responsible for the costs of off-campus care, which means carrying major medical insurance or being prepared to meet emergency medical costs should they occur. Martin Luther College carries accidental injury insurance to supplement a student's own primary coverage for injuriesthat occur on college property or in conjunction with school sanctioned activities. Intercollegiate athletes at Martin Luther College fall under the protection of NCAA coverage for catastrophic injury. Intercollegiate athletes must carry their own major medical insurance and must update their health records with a physical exam prior to their junior year. In general, students are strongly encouraged to carry major medical health insurance coverage.
Campus Living On its website, Martin Luther College publishes the Student Handbook that contains campus regulations and guidelines. Christian principles and courtesy form the necessary framework for day-to-day living on campus. By enrolling, each student declares a willingnessto abide by both the letter and the spirit of these common-sense regulations. The college administration and elected student representatives work together to keep guidelines up-to-date and relevant. Finesmay be levied and other penalties imposed when regulations are broken. In all cases the goal is to promote peace, harmony, and loving concern for others. The Holy Spirit works through the Word to make each believer more like Christ. When growth in Christian life is not apparent or when behavior calls into question a person's fitness or readiness for service in the public ministry, a student may be asked to leave school. Campus regulations reflect the concerns of our civil government. The Martin Luther College Governing Board has declared our campus to be drug- and alcohol-free. Martin Luther College has also established procedures to deal with sexual harassment. Racial prejudice is a form of lovelessnessthat the college family works with God's Word to eliminate.
Student Government Each class selects its own officers and elects delegates to the Student Senate. Each of the five residence halls has a dormitory council elected by its own residents.The Student Senate is the student body's voice in matters affecting student life at MLC. Class officers attend to the specific concerns of each class. Dormitory councils address concerns of residential living.
Marriage Students notify the Vice-President for Student Life when they are making plans for a marriage that will take place before graduation from Martin Luther College or prior to enrollment at WisconsinLutheran Seminary, or that may impact future assignment. The Vice -President for Student Life and the Campus Pastor counsel these students.
Academic
Counseling
Each student is assigned a faculty member as an academic advisor. The advisor helps chart the path to graduation by tracking academic progress and assistingthe student to
choose appropriate courses. The advisor may also offer personal counseling or direct the student to someone who can also help with non-academic concerns.
Personal and Spiritual Counseling Students who serve as resident assistants provide peer counseling. Each floor or wing of a dormitory has one resident assistant. Each dormitory has an adult resident supervisor to whom a student may also turn. The Vice-President for Student Life is available for other concerns. The Martin Luther College Campus Pastor offers confidential spiritual counseling. A Christian counseling office in New Ulm, staffed by WELS/ELS counselors, supplements the work of the Vice-President for Student Life and the Campus Pastor at their recommendation and referral.
Motor Vehicles A student may bring a motor vehicle to campus under the following conditions: • The vehicle must be covered with liability insurance. • The vehicle must be in safe operating condition. • The vehicle must be kept in operating condition throughout the year • The vehicle must be registered with the Student Life office (fees range from $40 to $80 per year). • The vehicle must be parked on campus in the lot assigned by the Student Life Office As a courtesy to our residential neighbors, parking on streets adjacent to campus is prohibited. Students who bring a vehicle agree to abide by motor vehicle regulations set by the college and the government. Because parking space on campus is limited, perhaps not all students wishing to bring vehicles to campus can be accommodated. Therefore, students must register for parking prior to bringing their vehicles to campus.
Orientation And Registration Current students register for classes prior to the end of each school year. New students and incoming freshmen will be pre-registered before the beginning of the school year. The college welcomes new students and their parents to a few days of orientation at the beginning of the first semester. Matters such as room and roommate assignment, vehicle registration, parking, financial aid, and the initial payment of fees are handled by mail prior to arrival on campus. To facilitate these matters, students must supply the college with a correct summer address.
Employment,
Shopping, Service, Events, etc.
The community of New Ulm offers part-time jobs to as many students as need them. Employment opportunities are posted regularly in the Luther Student Center in cooperation with Minnesota Job Service. Job opportunities are also listed on the Martin Luther College website and through an email notification service overseen by the Financial Aid Office. Students may shop for personal needs in New Ulm, nearby Mankato, or the Twin Cities. All three areas sponsor cultural and recreational activities.
Vogel Recreational
Facility
Located just down the Center Street Hill below the college stands the Vogel Recreational Facility. Students, Faculty, and Staff may use some of the facilities for no charge by presenting a valid MLC ID card. The swimming pool, walking/running track, gymnasium, and fitness center equipment may all be used. Rented facilities, like the racket ball courts, are not included in this program.
Handicapped
Accessibility
Although most campus buildings were built prior to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the American DisabilitiesAct of 1990,attempts are made to assiststudents and other personnel who have disabilities. The Wittenberg Collegiate Center (WCC), the Library building, and the Gymnasium have ground-level wheel chair accessible entrances. The Library, Wittenberg Collegiate Center (WCC), Old Main, Luther Student Center (LSC),Concord and Summit dormitories are served by elevators. Concord and Augustana Halls have private handicap-accessible toilet, shower and laundry facilities. MLC attempts to eliminate any disadvantages and to create a sensitivelearning environment for students with disabilities.
Extra-Curricular Life Government: Students can participate in campus leadership opportunities such as Student Senate, dormitory councils, class offices, an intramural athletic board, ad hoc college committees, task forces, etc. Music and Dramatics: Student-led drama club, Forum, produces a fall musical, a winter play, reader's theater, outdoor classical theater in the park, and a children's theater play. The MLC Music Divisionsponsorsmultiple performance choirs, bands, ensembles, jazz band, and hand bells. Publications: Students write, edit, and layout the school literary magazine, the Knight's Page, and a magazine featuring the translation of confessional Lutheran Latin and German material called Studium Excitare. Students are also asked to utilize their writing gifts for the Public Relations Office. Social Events: Students participate in homecoming activities, snow carnival events, class events and outings, lyceums and cultural events, special interest clubs, and faculty-student gatherings. Service Clubs: Students can assist with campus life by joining audio-visual services, becoming recruitment hosts, serving as campus ambassadors, and participating in other college sponsored service activities. In addition, students are warmly encouraged to volunteer their time and energy in the community.
Athletics Martin Luther College offers a comprehensive intercollegiate athletic program for men and women. The college is associated with the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA DivisionIII)and the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference (UMAC).
Crosscountry, soccer, basketball. tennis, golf, and track and field are offered to both men and women. In addition, women compete in volleyball and softball. while men compete in football and baseball. Intramural competition is offered for both men and women in tennis, indoor soccer, basketball. volleyball, bowling, badminton, basketball, softball, and flag football. All students not participating in intercollegiate sports during the respective sport season are eligible to be a part of the intramural program. The program is operated through a student board under the guidance of the Athletic Director. The athletic program is under control of the faculty athletic committee with recommendations provided by a student athletic board. The Athletic Director supervises the activities and schedules all intercollegiate athletics and intramural events. The Athletic Director also supervisesthe dance team and cheerleading squads. Athletics at Martin Luther College help to contribute to a positive overall college experience for students. Christian sportsmanship is just as important as participation and winning is never placed at odds with learning. Gender equity in sports isobserved.

MARTIN LUTHER COLLEGE SEAL ~
The Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod's college for ministry bears the name of the great sixteenth century reformer, Martin Luther, whose ministry is an inspiration for all who aspire to the high calling of the public ministry today. The MLC campus is located in the city of New Ulm in the state of Minnesota. 1995 MLC opened on July 1, 1995. MDCCCLXV /MDCCCLXXXIV MLC continues the service rendered to the WELS by Northwestern College of Watertown, Wisconsin (1865-1995),and by Dr. Martin Luther College of New Ulm, Minnesota (1884-1995). The Roman numerals on the seal are the founding dates of these two schools. Luther's Seal MLC borrows from the seal of Dr. Luther. He wrote the following things about the items which MLC has appropriated for its seal:
Cross: "A black cross within the heart reminds me that faith in Christ crucified saves me." Heart: "Although the cross is black, mortified and intended to cause pain, yet it does not change the color of the heart, does not destroy nature, l.e.. does not kill, but keeps alive. The just shall live by faith!"
Rose: "The heart is fixed upon the center of a white rose, to show that faith causes joy, consolation, and peace. The rose is white because white is the ideal color of all angels and blessed spirits." V-I-V-i-T "The letters of the word VIVIT [Latin for 'he lives'] are written on the petals of the rose. Because Christ lives, I too shall live."
Mono Below, supporting the seal, are words of Jesusfrom John 14:6,"I am the way [Latin: VIA], the truth [Latin: VERITAS],and the life [Latin: VITA]. COLORS Red, white, and black are the colors of MLC. Black: MLC trains young people to bring the true way of life to a world dying in darkness. White: The way is by grace alone. Truth is by Scripture alone. Life is by faith alone. These are
the darkness-dispelling gifts Jesusbrings.
Red: Red is the color of martyrs, Christ's faithful witnesses. MLC's mission is to send forth ministersof the gospel who proclaim but one way, but one truth, and but one life.
