From the mesmerizing glow of the tree-lighting ceremony to the harmonious melodies of Christmas at Augustana, each tradition adds a unique touch to the season. Here are a few of our favorites:
College is a time for growth, change and self-exploration. Some students are eager to start college and embrace the experience. For others, it can feel overwhelming or even scary. Whatever emotions you have about college are completely valid.
In early March, the Augustana’s men’s club volleyball team competed in a tournament in Springfield, Mo. Many volleyball organizations traveled far and wide to prove their skills against fierce competition.
Growing up in the Quad Cities, I used to drive past Augustana College a lot. Back then, I never thought I’d get the chance to actually go to school there. I had a bunch of doubts about myself, my family’s money situation, and doubted I would fit in.
The Vietnamese Student Association (VSA) is one of several Asian organizations we have on campus at Augustana. Our organization allows for the celebration and awareness of Vietnamese culture through the leadership of current students, such as myself and others.
This summer, I set out to experience things in the Quad Cities. As an incoming senior with a summer internship at Visit Quad Cities, I took it upon myself to get out and see what’s going on in the place where I live.
A new environment can bring new challenges, but also positive experiences. Here are some things I wish I knew before I came to Augustana College, and how you can prepare yourself before you arrive.
