What should parents ask colleges about campus food services?

When I went to college in the ’90s, I don’t think “foodie” was a term we used. But, it sure is now. Whether your student is a foodie or not, students deserve good-tasting, wholesome food during their college years.

As your family looks at colleges, I’d like to offer seven questions you will want to ask about dining and food at any school being seriously considered.

SMILE Concert

The Secondary Musical Instrument Lab Ensemble SMILE will present a festive concert.

DEI on campus discussion

When Augustana's Dymitri Kanellakis ’24 signed up for "SCAN-310A Crises in Sweden-US," he never expected eight of his classmates would be nearly 4,500 miles away at Uppsala University, Sweden.

Holidays Around the World

The campus community is invited to the last First Friday of the semester from noon-3 p.m. Today's event will honor and celebrate winter holidays around the world with treats, a cup of cocoa from the hot chocolate bar, and holiday activities.
