A window inside life at Augustana College
One thing I truly love about Augustana is the Liberal Arts aspect of it. Registering for winter term just got over with. Determining what 4 classes I wanted to pick was not easy!! There are just so many amazing classes to choose from. But I love the fact that I am faced with this problem. [...]

One of the great things about Augustana is the fact I’m not just a number. I’m not just a student in POLS101 to my professors, I’m Alicia Oken in POLS101. This is one of the reasons I wanted to to go Augustana. I wanted to attend a liberal arts college where I could go to [...]

This morning following my 8:30 history class, I walked over to Freshen’s, the usual table. I opened itunes, which my friend had recently updated with a bunch of her albums. Playing through them, I came upon something quite magical. It was Schizophrenia (Rochester Sessions) by Jukebox the Ghost. It was love at first listen. Schizophrenia [...]

So week 8 left me extremely exhausted after a quiz, paper, exam, and essay. So come the weekend, decided to kick back, relax, and have some fun. Friday night, my friends and I went to intramural bowling. We are in no way, shape, or form professional bowlers. In fact, we looked down right hilarious! We [...]

One of the things I would say that I love the best about Augustana is the likelihood of school faculty inviting you into their office for tea and chitchat. This has happened to me twice so far, once when I broke down in my LSFY class a mere few weeks ago (a Scandinavian professor happened [...]

some people are waving at you but they are pretty far away, so you can’t really tell who it is, so you don’t do anything…but then they keep waving, so you think, “Maybe I do know them,” and so you just wave back…but then as you approach each other, you realize you actually don’t know [...]

Guess what? It’s cold outside. That whole summer in the fall thing has officially ended. We are now experiencing real autumn weather, which in retrospect isn’t all that cold, but compared to what we’ve been having it definitely is a change. But on the plus side, they turned the heat on in the dorms so [...]

Because Emerge is the best thing ever! Seriously I am soooo (extra o’s for emphasis) glad I chose to be a part of Emerge. I met some awesome people, especially in the awesome Group 4 (fo’ Life!). I learned a lot about how to be, not just a better leader, but a better person in [...]

The title’s pretty self-explanatory. Everyone always tells you college is a whole different ball game. And there are some fairly obvious differences: you take far fewer courses in college than high school but the workload is much larger, you live among people your own age instead of with your parents, it’s up to you whether you go to [...]
