Greek Reading Couse for Spring Semester

Posted on December 20, 2021

Professor Craig Koester is offering the course Greek Reading (LG4225) online during spring semester. The course will enable students to develop their ability to use Greek for interpreting the New Testament. There will be weekly study of Greek passages from a number of NT books. Students will develop their ability to work with Greek vocabulary and the nuances of Greek grammar. Regular online discussion will provide opportunities to explore how the students’ work with the Greek text can enhance interpretation. A course description appears in the current seminary catalog.

Winter Intensives FAQ

Posted on December 20, 2021

As you complete your fall course work, we are already planning ahead for many of you to arrive on campus for January intensives. In preparation, we have developed a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) document for you in the hopes of answering common questions regarding COVID-19 precautions, Fairfield Inn information, and food options on and near campus (spoiler alert: there will be a number of meals available for free each week).

COVID-19 Dashboard Numbers for the Week of December 13-17

Posted on December 20, 2021

Reported employee cases: 0
Reported student cases: 0
Students in quarantine or isolation: 0

Reported cases only include students and employees who have been on campus within a period of time during which they may have been contagious. According to the CDC this includes two days prior to the onset of symptoms or a positive test.

If you have recently tested positive for COVID-19, or if you are an unvaccinated individual who has been in close contact with someone who has been diagnosed with COVID-19 (close contact is defined as being within 6 feet of that person for 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period), please report that to the appropriate person. For employees, that person is Michael Morrow (mmorrow001@luthersem.edu). Students should contact David Fenrick; email deanofstudents@luthersem.edu, or text 651-300-3537.

Contact Tracing Protocol

When an on-campus case of COVID-19 is reported, that person is first asked to stay off-campus and quarantine in accordance with CDC guidelines. In addition, the seminary takes two steps for contact tracing:

1. The Minnesota Department of Health is notified, per guidelines for institutions of higher education

2. The person reporting the case is asked to identify “close contacts”; the close contacts identified are notified of the exposure and asked to follow CDC guidelines for testing and quarantining (quarantine applies only to close contacts who are unvaccinated).
