FALL 2018 Intersections Faith, Learning, and the Vocation of Lutheran Higher Education IN THIS ISSUE Civil Discourse in a Fragmented World Intersections is a publication by and largely for the academic communities of the twenty-seven institutions that comprise the Network of ELCA Colleges and Universities (NECU). Each issue reflects on the intersection of faith, learning, and teaching within Lutheran higher education. It is published by the NECU, and has its home in the Presidential Center for Faith and Learning at Augustana College, Rock Island, Illinois, the institutional sponsor of the publication. Intersections extends and enhances discussions fostered by the annual Vocation of the Lutheran College Conference, together lifting up the vocation of Lutheran colleges and universities. It aims to raise the level of awareness among faculty, staff, and administration about the Lutheran heritage and church-relatedness of their institutions, especially as these intersect with contemporary challenges, opportunities, and initiatives. About the Cover Sheila Agee Hiawatha, 2018 Oil on wood door 80” x 144” (four 80” x 36” panels) Sheila Agee lives and works out of her studio near Brandon, South Dakota. Her work most often reflects whatever nature has to offer—hoping to capture the light of the sky or reflect on the essence of a more intimate detail. Hiawatha depicts the essence of the vivid details left behind by loving, thoughtful persons—evoking a lasting impression. The piece is part of a “Seeing Dakota” installation (seeingdakota.com), in which Sheila Agee and Ann Pederson, Professor of Religion at Augustana University, Sioux Fall, South Dakota, bring together the artistic process and works of a visual artist with the reflections of a theologian to cultivate imaginative and possibly transformative ways of seeing and interpreting the world. They intertwine not only two different professional practices of art and theology, but also their two different ways of seeing Dakota. Their hope is that those who see the installation will see Dakota in a new manner. They invite people to look with intention, to ponder the images and words, and to gather insight from the art and words. The following is part of Ann Pederson’s reflections on the broader landscape surrounding Hiawatha: The location of the cemetery within a nearby golf course gives me the creeps. Massive bur oaks shelter the graves of 121 Native Americans who were once inmates of the Hiawatha Asylum for Insane Indians. They were buried en masse on the 5th hole. Brilliant green grasses cover the bodies of men and women who were once warehoused within the massive walls of brick. Family members still come to honor their ancestors. Faint outlines appear where individuals were buried. Simple crosses mark two of the graves. Red, yellow, white, and black ribbons on the fence posts flap in the wind. The deaths of these people are not shadows of a distant past. They reveal the present horror of what happens when evil is covered up. 2 Intersections | Fall 2018 Contents 4 From the Publisher Mark Wilhelm 5 From the Editor Jason Mahn 6 Vocation and Civil Discourse: Discerning and Defining Intersections Lynn Hunnicutt Number 48 Fall 2018 Mark Wilhelm Publisher 10 Polarization, Incivility, and a Need for “Change” Jason A.

The debates continue. words about the human tongue The challenge is further complicated because evil from the Letter of James in in our speech is easily disguised. This can be true the New Testament freshly in personal speech, for example, when overtly mild on my mind. The text was one speech is used to demean someone, as in the damning of readings yesterday at my of African Americans with faint praise in the comment church.

For example, overtly fire. And the tongue is a fire! No one can tame the tongue— “good” public speech by organizations is increasing used a restless evil, full of deadly poison” (James 3:5b-6a; 8). As for evil through the mechanism known as astroturfing. James writes more succinctly earlier in his letter, “If any Astroturfing is the practice of hiding the true sponsors of think they are religious, and do not bridle their tongues… a message to make a message appear to be from some their religion is worthless” (1:26). other (typically, grassroots) group.

As the on our campuses. These standards do not allow any and all Lutheran tradition puts it, a theologian of the cross (that is, speech, as guidelines adopted by many NECU institutions a follower of Jesus), calls a thing what it is. demonstrate. The standards of the North Atlantic academy, Balancing the need for frank honesty in our speech, while in which NECU institutions share, are deeply rooted in at the same time not permitting frank speech to degenerate the Lutheran tradition and its insistence on frankness, into hateful speech, is a daunting challenge. It is no virtue honesty, and calling a thing what it is, while maintaining to avoid challenging difficult issues or wrongful acts under a concern for others and the common good and avoiding the banner of maintaining civility. At the same time, it is no acrimony amid divisive disputes. The standards of academic virtue to speak with an arrogant, haranguing, unbridled discourse do not eliminate the challenge of speaking tongue. We struggle to find the sweet spot.

    After Augustana: Post-Graduation Career Outcomes Report for the Class of 2019 Billie Streufert | Student Success Center The numbers are in — and they speak for themselves. Augustana’s liberal arts degree prepares graduates for success in a variety of careers. The Student Success Center, in collaboration with the Office of Assessment, presents the following data on undergraduate alumni using standards set by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE).1 Data includes the activities within six months of graduation of individuals who completed a baccalaureate degree in the 2018-2019 academic year (Summer 2018, Fall 2018 or Spring 2019). Augustana contacted these alumni via surveys, emails, phone calls, and social media to determine their post-graduation activities. The Success Center continues to gather information graduates self-reported to faculty, academic advisors, or coaches. Respondents select one post- graduation activity category: working full-time, working part-time, further education or study, military service, volunteering full-time (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps, mission work), other commitments (e.g., family, moving, travel, etc.), or looking for work. Augustana obtained information on 91% of these graduates, which exceeds the minimum NACE knowledge rate by 26%.2 Sources of information are identified below in Chart A. CHART A: INFORMATION SOURCE Social Media 10% Faculty or Staff 6% Survey 57% SSC Outreach 27% Outcomes Summary Data from the Class of 2019 once again demonstrates Augustana’s ability to offer an education of enduring worth. Of the respondents who provided information, 99% were employed (part-time or full-time) in their major or chosen field and 98% achieved a positive career outcome (e.g., continuing their education, working, serving in the military, or volunteering).3 Each graduate was only counted once in this aggregate statistic.

  • Dear Augustana College (Aka University) Alum of 1977! February, 2017
    Dear Augustana College (aka University) Alum of 1977! February, 2017 Hello friends! I never seem to have time to write anything when the deadline for publication is due, and here is that time again, but this time, I’m putting together some thoughts fast! Brian and I (class of 1977) have been Augustana Association representatives from Nebraska the last number of years. This is a wonderful day at Augustana the first Friday of December, as we get to see and hear firsthand the current status. We got in a little visit to the Froiland Science Complex (must-see!) and brought some treats to share with Doc and Phyl Krueger that afternoon. We’re so grateful for all those fine professors we had who taught us so very much. It’s most gratifying to be able to spend time with them today and tell them how grateful we are for their hard work and fine teaching! Augie continues to be a wonderful place where such great learning takes place, and we are most proud that such great things are happening. I would encourage each of you to find some time to visit and see for yourself. This fall will be the 40th anniversary celebration of our graduation! There are annual homecoming events to which we’ll be invited. Bob Boyce has created a Facebook Augie Class of 1977 page—40th Year Reunion, Augustana University, Sioux Falls. The main purpose is to determine a time when we can gather and enjoy fellowship together, so please check it out and share your thoughts: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1838912949660216/ Meanwhile, here are links to some highlights.

  • Annual Report 2017 Dialogue in Divided Societies
    Annual Report 2017 Dialogue in Divided Societies Presented by It is a great honor for Augsburg University to be host and home to the Nobel Peace Prize Forum in Minneapolis with our many organizing partners, including the University of Minnesota. On behalf of all the student and faculty attendees, thank you for supporting us in the work of sending out into the world better informed and equipped peacemakers. — Paul C. Pribbenow, Augsburg University President GREETINGS FROM THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR reetings from the office of the Nobel Peace Prize Forum, hosted at Augsburg University. It has been a momentous year, with the return of the Forum to the Augsburg campus as we marked our transition from a college to a university. This year’s return to campus and the Cedar-Riverside community refocused on both student and community involvement, with an increased emphasis on action and engagement with ongoing peacemaking efforts. The Grepresentatives of the Tunisian National Dialogue Quartet—our honored laureates this year—were gracious, wise, and good-humored. It was easy to see how they were able to bring together the fractious parties in Tunisia to foster a pluralistic democratic system during a time of serious risks of social fragmentation and violence. More than 1,700 people attended the 2017 Forum, triple the level from 2016, and this year’s participants engaged with a rich array of accomplished guests and speakers. We were pleased to host the Secretary of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, Olav Njølstad, and appreciated his willingness to participate during the busy weeks leading up to the October 6 announcement of the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize recipient.
