Last year, a friend told me, “You know, I heard that you can only have two of the three at college: good grades, a social life or sleep.” The further you get in your college career, the more you’ll realize how true this is. For the last couple of years, I mostly chose good […]

Destiny’s Child once said: “I’m a survivor/I’m not gon give up.” That was my motto for winter term and let me tell you – I’m a survivor. Somehow I managed to complete 86+ pages for my political science and communication studies senior inquiry papers. This was on top of another 20ish pages for another class. […]

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. […]

Hey all, I know been a while since I have updated a post I know, but hopefully this story will make up for my lack of blog posts! So like most of my fellow first year class mates, I learned the hard way the reason Augustana sells ice cleat covers for your shoes during the […]
