Fieldwork gives Augustana students a ‘foot in the door’

During the academic year, 14 Augustana students led by geology professor Dr. Jeffrey Strasser will help create a map of a landscape no one can see. Through a collaboration with the Illinois State Geological Survey (ISGS), students are conducting professional research as they use seismometers, collect and interpret field data, and help map the buried Princeton Bedrock Valley.

Film screening: 'My Ascension'

Join us for a special screening of My Ascension, a powerful documentary following Emma Benoit’s journey after surviving a suicide attempt at age 16. As Emma navigates her physical and emotional recovery, she discovers a new purpose in sharing her story and bringing hope to other young people who may be struggling.

Following the film, our local NAMI Program Manager will guide a supportive discussion about mental health, suicide prevention, help-seeking, and how we can better support ourselves and one another.

**Please note that this film includes candid discussions of suicide, depression, and mental health challenges. Students are encouraged to care for themselves and step out at any time if needed. Mental health resources will be available.
