Eddis Goodale Student Center for Augustana. Formerly the campus library, then expanded in size and functions to consolidate dining, library, and student life activities into a central location in the campus. An architecturally beautiful building with an abundance of spaces -- large, small, and in between -- for students, faculty, and alumni to gather and interact.

Kathy Dibadj The staff care about the students and truly want them to meet their full potential. The swimmers on the swim team are the nicest, hardest working group of kids you can find. It is a great place to get a great education!

Sean Carlson Great college all around. Biggest issue is registration, it’s an all out war for the classes you need and it’s completely ridiculous how much of a pain it is compared to ANY OTHER COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY

Kleyten Sweet Absolutely awful school the sportsmanship those men’s volleyball boys has is disgusting they were saying vulgar and disrespectful things I get playful banter in the game but they took it too far they’re an embarrassment to sports

Jorge Ocampo In all honesty, you don’t just spend the money for the food, but for the experience. If I had to describe everyone there in one word … OHANA which means . Moving on, The service I will say is underwhelming. Wish I could be greeted with a big fat kiss and a hug but regardless the atmosphere is great. I will say one time the after service was greatly appreciated. Food is immaculate, sometimes I get flashes of my young self reliving my best moments. Other times the is some flaws but hey, if it’s buffet food it’s not expected to be gourmet. All in all, fantastic.
