Zappos.com 2009: Clothing, Customer Service, and Company Culture
Frances X. Frei, Robin J. Ely, Laura Winig
Revision Date:Jun 27, 2011Publication Date:Oct 20, 2009Discipline:Service ManagementSource:Harvard Business School |
Product number:610015-HCB-ENG Length:27p |
English Hardcopy Black & White

English Hardcopy Black & White | $ 6.93
On July 17, 2009, Zappos.com, a privately-held online retailer of shoes, clothing, and other soft-line retail categories, learned that Amazon.com, a $19 billion multinational online retailer, had won its Board of Directors' approval to offer to merge the two companies. Amazon had been courting Zappos since 2005, hoping a merger would enable Amazon to expand and strengthen its market share in soft-line retail categories. While Amazon's interest intrigued Zappos' senior executives, they had not felt the time was right--until now. Amazon's offer-10 million shares of stock (valued at $807 million), $40 million in cash, restricted stock units for Zappos' employees, and a promise that Zappos could operate as an independent subsidiary-was on the table. Zappos' financial advisor, Morgan Stanley, estimated the future equity value of an IPO to be between $650 million and $905 million; this estimate skewed the Amazon offer-at least in financial terms--toward the high end of Zappos' estimated market value. Hsieh and Lin, Zappos' CEO and COO, respectively, knew that much of Zappos' growth, and hence its value, had been due to the company's strong culture and obsessive emphasis on customer service. In 2009, they were focusing on the three C's-clothing, customer service, and company culture--the keys to the company's continued growth. Hsieh and Lin had only a few days to consider whether to recommend the merger to Zappos' board at their July 21 meeting.

The State of APT Preparedness
Click here to download now
Overview: Many IT security professionals recognize that advanced persistent threats (APTs) pose a growing risk to their organizations. However, recent UBM Tech research discovered that only a few are taking the necessary steps to combat APTs and protect their organizations. In fact, many appear to have a misplaced sense of confidence in their ability to detect these attacks, even though few have developed strategies for dealing with them. This gap is particularly troubling since security experts say that it isn't a question of whether an APT attack will occur, but when.

Caswell's Fine Coffees and Teas
Caswell's Fine Coffee & Teas was established in early 2001, with the commitment to serve only the freshest, premium coffees in Indonesia.
With this goal in mind, Caswell's installed a rotary drum roaster in Kemang, South Jakarta and experimented with traditional roasting techniques, explored the complex flavors intrinsic to different Arabica beans and blending to create our unique coffees and signature blends.
With success and a few years, Caswell's Coffee then expanded in 2003 and installed another rotary drum roaster in a new outlet at Jimbaran, Bali.
In 2005, Caswell's took the next step in our growth and added two new coffee shops, one in Kemang Raya and in the later part of the year, one in Banda Aceh. It was also during this period of growth and consolidation that Caswell's developed its wholesale coffee division and incorporated the famous New York Deli sandwiches into its menu.
Since then, Caswell's Coffee has developed into a diverse modern coffee company specializing in good food and world class coffees and teas, differentiate by service, freshness and quality.
Whether you sit down in one of our relaxed cafes or just buy our freshly roasted coffee and fine gourmet sandwiches, you know you are being served by dedicated people committed to ensuring that all our customers walk away satisfied.

Read Full Production Details
Musical prodigy, Sparkle struggles to become a star while overcoming issues that are tearing her family apart. From an affluent Detroit area and daughter to a single mother (Whitney Houston), she tries to balance a new romance with music manager, Stix while dealing with the unexpected challenges her new life will bring as she and her two sisters strive to become a dynamic singing group during the Motown-era.
To get showtimes, enter your location to find theaters showing this movie in your area.
Sparkle isn't a great movie. It's possible that it's not even a very good movie. It is, however, a highly enjoyable, sprawling soap opera with '60s fashion and period detail, glamorous musical performances, high drama, and, perhaps most importantly, the late Whitney Houston's last performance on film.
As Sparkle, American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance alum Jordin Sparks carries the weight of the movie. Sparkle is a little ''church mouse'' who is too shy to sing the soulful songs she writes. Sister (Carmen Ejogo), who recently returned from New York and has a bad reputation, is persuaded to take the lead. Sparkle and the family's third sister Dolores (Tika Sumpter), a pre-med and the sharpest in terms of intelligence and personality, sing backup. As their band takes off, they acquire a manager, the starry-eyed Stix (Derek Luke), and although Sister was initially courted by Stix's cousin Levi, he's quickly shoved aside for Satin (Mike Epps). Naturally, Sister and Satin are a combustible pair, Sparkle is only concerned with the future of their band and Dolores waits to find out if she got into medical school. Meanwhile, matriarch Emma (Whitney Houston) has no idea her daughters are sneaking out to perform in clubs in Detroit. In one of the movie's especially silly contrivances, she finds out when she sees them on late night TV.
There are plenty of things in Sparkle that don't make sense. There are leaps in logic, bizarre plot holes, and a clumsy attempt to work civil rights into the mix. Somehow, the magnetism of its stars, especially Ejogo and Epps as the slickly sinister fiancé Satin, helps make Sparkle a little bit more of the sum of its parts. And, of course, Houston's performance as Mama Bear Emma is worth the price of admission for fans of the diva. It doesn't matter if you're like gospel or not; when she belts out ''His Eye Is on the Sparrow'' with tears running down her face, fans will swoon.
Sparkle was a passion project for Houston, who loved the original with Irene Cara and was an executive producer on this remake. Her character is steely and overprotective, often at the cost of her daughters' self-esteem. Houston wows in a scene with Epps, when they exchange words over a Sunday dinner. Emma doesn't just call Satin out for his disrespect of religion (in front of the reverend, no less) but for the way his comedy panders to a white audience. This is one of the more successful moments when the civil rights movement is evoked; although the script makes nods towards Martin Luther King, Jr., he's used as a sort of prop to try and convince Sparkle she should have faith in herself.
In the end, though, Sparkle is a spectacle. It's false eyelashes and winged eyeliner, diamonds and drugs, smoke-filled clubs, and a disapproving mom with her hair in curlers waiting at home with a glint in her eye. It is the kind of movie where choirs pop up from seemingly nowhere and you can achieve your dreams by waiting outside a record exec's office for days on end. It's baffling and mesmerizing. Fans will eat it up.

IRS struggling to tackle massive surge in identity theft
Friday - 11/30/2012, 6:16pm EST
Jared Serbu, Federal News Radio reporter
The number of Americans whose identities have been stolen for the purpose of filing fraudulent tax returns has risen exponentially in just the last several years. But the IRS' tight budgets and inefficient business resources have stymied its efforts to fight the problem.
In 2008, there were 51,700 confirmed cases of tax-refund identity theft in the United States. By 2011, the number was 1.1 million, and those are just the cases the IRS knows about. An audit by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) earlier this year estimated another 1.5 million potential cases in which thieves stole identities for the purpose of getting fraudulent refunds. And IRS could give out $21 billion dollars in fraudulent refunds in just the next five years if the agency doesn't find a way to crack down, according to TIGTA.
"People are nimble, and they will use ingenuity when it comes to taking advantage of a federal program, a state program or a nongovernmental program if they think they can get away with it — and they are," Russell George, the tax IG told the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Thursday. "And keep in mind this is not only a domestic problem, this is an international problem."
The IRS estimated it would need another $32 million to investigate those 1.5 million potentially fraudulent returns from 2011 — money it doesn't have right now, and doesn't appear to be forthcoming.
"We've cut their budget by $350 million," said Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.). "You can be smart all you want, that's a real cut. It means they're handicapped in terms of the resources they need to be dealing with this subject in an efficacious way."
Bigger budget isn't only answer
The IRS said it recognizes the magnitude of the problem. So, despite the budget squeeze, it reallocated money and staff internally, doubling the size of its workforce that handles identity theft, and officials will assign 3,000 people to the issue for the upcoming tax filing season.
But George said that's far from a perfect solution.
"It's a zero-sum game. Unless they're given additional resources, they have to take people from one function and apply them to another," he said. Even with the increased attention to identity theft, TIGTA and the Government Accountability Office say IRS is falling behind, and a bigger budget isn't the only answer.
"One thing to note is that despite the increase in resources IRS has devoted to the problem, the problem continues to grow and get worse. They're not keeping up," said James White, the director for strategic issues at GAO. "And resolving cases after the fraud has occurred is very labor intensive. It's a huge hit to the budget. The trick here is figuring out a way to prevent the fraud in the first place. That means doing more research up front, experimenting with better filters to prevent the fraud. That way you avoid this time-consuming, costly process that's so terrible for the victims."
IRS said it's focused on prevention too. The bureau will expand this year a pilot program to 600,000 users that issues secret PIN codes to taxpayers who've been identity theft victims in the past to prevent them from being the subjects of fraud again. Also, the agency said it's making more use of third-party data help to automatically flag returns that appear to be fraudulent.
"We have an initiative called Real Time, and that gets to the heart of the matter," said Beth Tucker, the deputy IRS commissioner for operations support. "It will make basic information documents available to us so we can match them up quickly with a return when it comes in the door. That does stem an enormous amount of this fraud. So that is something we'll be doing some additional testing on this upcoming filing season, using data analytics and the computing capabilities we have."
Better use of computer matching
GAO and TIGTA have plenty of other recommendations for IRS in the area of identity theft though. For instance, banking industry regulations require that direct deposits into checking accounts match up with the name of the account holder. TIGTA said IRS doesn't follow those regulations, so in one case, one fraudster was able to have 590 separate refunds totaling nearly $1 million deposited into a single account.
And George said the agency also could make better use of data the government already has to verify the identities of tax filers.
"For example, the Department of Health and Human Services has the National Directory of New Hires. If the IRS had expanded access to that directory, which would require statutory changes, it would allow the IRS to better match the withholding and income information provided by a taxpayer to make sure it's accurate," he said. "Most recently, the IRS gained access to the Social Security Administration's database that deals with 1099s. That's assisted it in stemming tax cheats in the Social Security arena."

Special Olympics Australia celebrated the International Day of Persons with Disabilities on 3 December with the Law Enforcement Torch Run (LETR) for the Special Olympics Australia National Junior Games.
L to R: ALPs Athlete Allister Peek, Special Olympics Australia Board member Nigel Milan, Senator Jan McLucas, Athlete Corey Harber, LETR Garry Ballard , Senator Kate Lundy, Special Olympics Australia CEO Gill Stapleton, and Special Olympics Australia General Manager Alex McNeilly.
Australian Federal Ministers Kate Lundy, Ministry for Sport, Parliamentary Secretary for Disabilities and Carers, Senator Jan McLucas and Bill Shorten, Member for Maribyrnong, joined Law Enforcement Torch Run members, athletes, officials, families, supporters and volunteers at Parliament House in Canberra, Australia's capital city. The torch was lit at Parliament House by 15 year old athlete Corey Harber, before making its way around Canberra landmarks, through communities to the opening ceremony in Newcastle."The Law Enforcement Torch Run is made up of runners from our dedicated police forces, Special Olympics athletes and volunteers. They're carrying the message of hope for everybody involved in the Special Olympics Australia Junior National Games, it's a touching way to kick-off the games," Senator Lundy said.
ALPs athlete Allister Peek demonstrated great leadership and advocacy skills when he was the official MC of the event at Parliament House, supported by Alex McNeilly and his mentor Murray Craze. Murray said: "through ALPs training, Allister is now studying to be an official sailing coach at Special Olympics and enjoys his role on the Special Olympics ACT board".
Over 350 Australian junior athletes are competing in the third National Games. Held every four years, the Games gives an opportunity for athletes aged 7 – 15 to experience quality competition and the excitement of being part of a travelling team. This year's Games are from 6 – 10th December. To further support Australia's message of inclusion, Senator Jan McLucas will join world leaders in Korea to speak at the Special Olympics Global Development Summit, on Ending the Cycle of Poverty and Exclusion for People with Intellectual Disabilities. The Summit is part of the Special Olympics World Winter Games PyeongChang in January 2013.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Religious students, students looking for a challenge, residents of South Dakota with friends at Augustana, students with interest in the Arts.
Tips for prospective students Apply early, visit campus at least once, write a good, strong essay, do well in school, be active in a few activities, be in college-prep classes, have good grades, do well on the ACT.
Bang for the buck Augustana, like all private schools, seems to be pretty spendy. It appears that there are plenty of scholarships for the over-achieving students.
Will enjoy being here From what I have observed from visiting campus, students appear to group together, especially with people they've known from high school. However, the campus and building seem to be in very good condition.
Will learn a lot The professors at Augustana seem to be very nice and caring about the students.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students This school is great for students that want a rigorous academic work load. Augustana College is serious about academic achievement. This school is also great for students that want to be in an active community. If you are not willing to participate and have fun with the students around you, this is not the school for you.
Tips for prospective students Over night visits during the fall can be great fun. Due to the pure number of events on campus you are sure to enjoy your stay. Also, talk to you admissions representative. Our representatives are known for calling and checking in. Spend a little time chatting. They are a great resource.
Bang for the buck Augustana College is one of the most inexpensive private, liberal art schools in the country. They strive to make the school affordable for each an every student. Additional expenses such as parking are a hidden bargain. Also, remember, cost of living in Sioux Falls is very reasonable. Think of down the road when you want to live off campus-reason rent is always available in Sioux Falls.
Am enjoying being here Augustana has a strong sense of community. The freshman dorms allow for a strong sense of unity among classes. There is never a dull moment on campus. The student groups host an event almost every night.
Am learning a lot Each professor strives to utilize text, lecture, and assignments to ensure each student truly dives into the subject matter. What truly sets Augustana College above and beyond on this level is the attention to the ideas that unite the disciplines. I enjoy the moments when the ideas in one class begin to connect with my other classes.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Great for students seeking a challenge academically and students who would like to travel and see the world and still graduate in four years.
Tips for prospective students Understand that Augustana expects a lot out of their students and it is a lot of work but you can have fun at the same time. Don't isolate yourself from the community because you won't create relationships that will help you when you feel over worked or home sick or whatever else might come your way.
Bang for the buck Augustana has its bang for the buck. Everything that ague has is well worth what you pay. This college is amazing in everyday.
Am enjoying being here The community is great and It feels like a family, which is nice because I am so far from home. The campus is small and beautiful and i really love everything about it.
Am learning a lot I am for sure, learning alot. Augustana is challenging, always keeping me on my toes. I never feel like I am learning stuff I already know. I am always learning new things everyday.

Categories Comments Campus Safety They do what they do; no complaints.
Greek Life We offer Theme Houses, which are like Sororities or Fraternities, except that the students living in the houses must have a community service theme. - But no Greek Life
Clubs and Activities Many different clubs and activities for all kinds of people. A great majority of the students on campus are involved in something.
Great for these types of students Students looking for a small, close-knit campus, small classes, caring faculty, and a mid-sized city with a small city atmosphere
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus We are a very Norwegian inspired campus. You'll find many things pertaining to Ole, our viking mascot, or just viking stuff in general.
Bang for the buck Augustana is pretty expensive, but the education and overall experience I'm getting here is invaluable.
What to do for fun UBG offers a wide variety of activities every month. There's always something to do on campus. For off campus fun, you can check out Falls Park, the mall, or many other places. Sioux Falls is a city with the best of both worlds - big enough to find stuff to do, small enough to walk around without fear of getting shot.
Food and Dining Superb. That's all there is to say about it. Most colleges don't offer as many choices as Augustana - main dish, secondary dish, pizza, burgers, sandwiches, salads, wraps, soup, and stir-fry station. Every day. It doesn't get better than this! (And if you're on the go, you can stop by the Huddle, Augie's little restaurant.)
Dorm Life You may not be impressed at first, but let me tell you, in general, dorms suck. Augie's freshman dorms are larger than dorms at most other schools, and the upperclassmen dorms aren't bad. If dorms aren't your thing when you're older, they offer apartments and theme houses. The freshman dorm life experience is the best around. You will really get to know your floor, including your PA (peer adviser) through a monthly floor activity and all-hall events.
Academic Rigor I'm not going to lie - it's tough. Now don't get too scared; it's not Harvard or anything. But it's definitely more challenging than community and state colleges, and a lot of the private colleges in the area. This academic rigor can only benefit you though. The professors know what they're talking about; and they're always available to help (a privilege you won't get at bigger schools).
Tips for prospective students Go on a campus visit; this is the best way to really get a feel for the college. You can check out the dorms, eat the awesome commons food, and meet some of our amazing professors. It is only by visiting campus that you can truly understand what makes Augie special.
In three sentences Augustana is a great liberal arts school for those looking for a small institution that they can feel at home at. Class sizes are small and the professors really care; everyone on campus is super friendly! Being in Sioux Falls, you don't have to worry about it being too small and boring; there is always something to do in the city.

Bang for the buck School always has something going on weather its a comedian they have brought in, a basketball or football game, or activities by on campus groups. There is no reason to be board.
Am enjoying being here I love being here at Augie, it is my home away from home and I live in Sioux Falls.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students The coursework is difficult, so you need to be organized and have good study habits. Augustana also has a really good athletic department, as well as very strong Education major/Special Education major programs.
Tips for prospective students Learn your Professors names, and where their office is as soon as you can. Each professor has office hours during which their students can stop by and address any difficulties. Take advantage of that offering, because it is really helpful. Also, ask about tutoring services if you need help, as there are tutors for pretty much every subject available at Augie.
Bang for the buck The college is a bit spendy, but I feel that since the staff and professors that are employed by Augustana are so willing to meet with you and go through anything that is confusing or difficult, that it is worth the money. I looked into transferring to a public college that was going to cost roughly the same amount per year, but decided against transferring once I realized how little their admission office's staff seemed to care about incoming students. Augustana Staff members go above and beyond when anyone has a question.
Am enjoying being here Many of the people I come into contact with at Augustana are very easy going, and I really like the social scene that Sioux Falls provides. Augustana provides lots of activities hosted by UBG, Union Board of Governors, such as dances, movies in the Back Alley, Coffeehouse events, bowling nights and other similar events.
Am learning a lot The courses I've taken at Augustana have been very challenging, but by being organized and on top of the coursework, I have been able to explore my interests during a tough semester full of new information to process.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Small communities. If you like them, this place is perfect for you. And even if you don't, you could still fall in love with this amazing place! I fell in love with it and I'm used to a very very large community.
Tips for prospective students Apply early! Augustana accepts on a rolling basis, so the earlier you apply, the earlier you get accepted or denied and the earlier you can quit worrying about it. Also, definitely visit the campus. I wasn't too excited about Augustana before I visited, but actually being there completely changed my perspective, especially after my second visit once school had started! Talk to a professor, sit in on a class, get to know your admissions counselor, be involved! It'll make the visit not only more fun, but you'll also get a much better feel for the college. There's only so much I can tell you when you just have to see it for yourself.
Bang for the buck I will admit Augustana is a little bit pricey, but not unaffordable. However, since I haven't actually been a student at the college yet, I don't believe I can give an accurate rating on this area. I also believe it depends on the student, too. Though from what I can see, there are very many options there with quality professors and courses.
Will enjoy being here Again, I was from a very large high school, so I believe going to the campus will take some getting used to if you're like me. I do like how the community is small and close-knit, the campus is beautiful and open, and that it really does feel like home, but I can also tell that changing environments so drastically will take some getting used to.
Will learn a lot I sat in on a class at Augustana and, being from a high school three times the size of their current student body, I was shocked by the amount of involvement the students get with their professors! The class size was about 18 and the Professor knew all of their names. I participated and learned in that class and I'm very excited to be going there next fall.

Categories Comments Clubs and Activities If it weren't for the several clubs i'm involved in, my life here would be very dull I believe.
Great for these types of students I find it to be the best school for anyone interested in the fine arts, but there are a lot of science majors here as well.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus One unusual thing is that they have an interim semester strictly in the month of January. Here every student is allowed one course to take over one month, cramming an entire semester's worth of one class into a month. However, this class is free to take and recommended to do so as no other college will offer a free course. If you opt out of doing interim, or J-term, you can instead stay home for a month and just have a month vacation from school.
Tips for prospective students It feels a bit overwhelming at first, but once you are used to the transition from high school to college, it is a great place to be because you will always feel welcomed by students and teachers alike.
In three sentences It has a great theatre program. It has a great sense of community. I am certain this is the place for me.

Categories Comments Campus Safety augustana is a very safe campus. there are always campus safety officers on duty and they are often seen driving around campus making sure everything is safe. there are also emergency poles around campus that can be used. although the campus is well lighted at night, a student may feel unsafe walking to their dorm at night. in this case, they can call the campus safety desk and be given a ride to their dorm. each dorm also practices fire drill in case of a real emergency. also, all of the dorm are locked 24/7, so an augustana i.d. card is needed to enter a place of residence. augustana is a very safe place to live.
Greek Life there are no greek houses at augustana.
Clubs and Activities augustana is full of different clubs and there are always activities going on around campus. for science majors, there is the biology club, pre-med club, and many others. there is a deaf-awareness club that promotes deaf culture. there are also outdoors clubs, such as, rock climbing club, biking club, and the hunting club. you can also be involved in the school news paper, the school radio programs, and ubg (union board of governors) which plans and brings different events to augustana.
Great for these types of students augustana is great for students who love school and are passionate about learning. school is tough, but the great education you receive is worth it long nights of studying. also, augustana is great for students who are looking to play collegiate sports, but who also want to focus on their education. augustana is very competitive in all of our sports, but most coaches say that homework comes first. this way, you get to play a sport you love, plus get a great education.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus most campuses have at least one unique spot to hang out, and augustana is no different. augustana's back alley is often the place to be on the weekends. the back alley used to be a bowling alley, but now there are comfy chairs and couches for studying. on the weekends, there are singers and comedians that come to preform. the back alley is also where our dances are held. there are also pool tables, and a bar where food and water is served during events. augustana has lots of other cool places to hang out too, so come for a visit!
Bang for the buck augustana is very expensive, but they offer plenty of scholarships and grants to help with the cost. in the long run, spending the money to get a well rounded education is money well spent. also, there are lots of other scholarships through websites you can apply for.
What to do for fun about 72% of students at augustana participate in intramural sports. also, there are 8 men and 8 women division ii collegiate sports, so there are lots of sporting events to attend. augustana is also home to the ubg, or the union board of govenors. ubg plans dances, concerts, volunteer opportunities, and many other events throughtout the year. augustana always has lots of fun things to do.
Food and Dining there are many options at the augustana dinning facility. there is always a main line with a full meal prepared. there is a pizza line, and also a cook's choice line. there is a line for wraps, sandwiches, and for the grill. there is also a stir-fry line with different meats, noodles, and veggies. there is a salad bar, and also two soups of the day! augustana also has many choices for desserts. a new ice cream machine was put in this year. you can make all kinds of blizzard-like ice cream mixtures. also, there are always cookies, brownies, cupcakes, pudding, and a wide variety of other deserts. there are many choices every day at the augustana cafeteria.
Dorm Life i love living in the dorms! before you are assigned a roommate, augustana has you fill out a survey based on your cleaning habits, sleeping habits, and personal interests. that way, they can place you with a roommate you are really compatible with. there is always so much to do in the dorms! all of the pa's for each floor plan floor events in which the floor gets together and has fun, either watching movies, making crafts, or eating some pizza. also, many of the activities put on by the school, especially at the beginning of the year, are focused toward freshmen. many of the activities are held in the freshman dorms and are focused on meeting new people. dorm life is awesome!
Academic Rigor classes at augustana are not for those who want to slack off and slide by in college. the classes are taught in a manner that is understandable and all of the professors are excellent at what they do. classes at augustana are not impossible, but you have to do a lot of studying to get good grades. augustana offers free tutors, and many of the sciences have specialized tutors available on certain days. over all, augustana is a challenging school, but the education you will receive is worth the hard work.

Categories Comments Tips for prospective students Make sure that you visit the campus before applying. In fact, do this at any school you may want to attend, not just Augie. Take the time to talk to some students and professors.
Bang for the buck Like most private colleges, Augustana is fairly spendy, but from talking to people there it seems like they love it and feel as though the cost was money well spent
Will enjoy being here The campus appears to be great for the religious student looking for new friends and things to get involved in
Will learn a lot Augustana seems like a great school with dedicated professors who expect your best

Am enjoying being here So far, I absolutely love Augustana College. I've made some great friends and there's always something to do! I can't imagine going to any other college.
Am learning a lot Augustana College has challenged me to learn a lot. Compared to other colleges Augie seems to have higher expectations, but it's all worth it when you think about how competitive the job market of today is. Plus, if the coursework strikes you as over welming there are tons of resources available to get you back on track.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Augustana College is good for anyone who is willing to learn. Augustana is for everyone. The community is great and very welcoming.
Tips for prospective students When considering colleges, don't rule out Augustana because of price. Look into the college and visit the campus, you will fall in love with the beautiful campus just like I did. Visit the campus before making any decisions.
Bang for the buck Augustana is one of the least expensive private schools. The price may seem expensive but there are many scholarships that students can receive. Almost all the students at Augustana have a scholarship.
Am enjoying being here Augustana College is a fun college when it comes to extracurricular activities. There are activities for everyone. From sports to club sports to different clubs. There is a place for everyone and the faculty/students are friendly. There are fun activities where you can meet new people and gain friendships for life.
Am learning a lot The professors at Augustana College make the classroom experience not seem as intimidating and are willing to help you with whatever academic questions you may have. The classes are smaller so you are able to gain a relationship with your professors and be able to go to their office and ask them questions when you need the help.

Will enjoy being here When I visited Augustana, I felt a great sense of community. Everybody there cared for everyone, and they all looked after everyone. I can't wait to see what more Augie has.
Will learn a lot I spoke with a professor, and she seemed absolutely ecstatic about being able to declare she worked at Augustana. If she was that enthusiastic about her job, I can't wait to see excited she is to teach.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Augustana is great for the students who are serious about their course work but want a balance of extracurriculars as well. We've got excellent involvement in not only sports, but the arts and activist (such as Augie Green) groups as well. We also have ROTC.
Tips for prospective students Check into all the groups on campus and activities as well as your academic program. When you come to visit, arrange a meeting with a professor in your field of interest. They can be so friendly and it's good to set up those relationships early. I remember when I came, the Anthropology teacher took my mother and I out for lunch and we just sat and talked for about 3 hours.
Bang for the buck Augustana is one of the cheaper liberal arts colleges I could find, but you do get a lot from it. I couldn't imagine being anywhere else where I'd be sitting with 100s of people in my class, struggling to get a hold of the professor after hours, and have to be constantly reintroducing myself. It's worth it.
Am enjoying being here I love it on campus. I'm from the Twin Cities, and honestly, I really don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. Everything you need is within 10 mins away, not to mention all the fun things that happen on campus.
Am learning a lot Augustana is a great school with rigorous coursework, especially if you join the honors program, CIVITAS. Both professors, current students and former students are always around to help in any program you find yourself in.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Campus safety is always on duty driving around campus and the neighborhoods nearby. The campus is well lit and is in a safe city. There are hardly ever incidents of crime.
Greek Life There are no sororities or fraternities on campus. There are theme houses on campus that focus on a volunteering project throughout the year. The theme houses are applied for by a group of students.
Clubs and Activities There are sporting clubs, academic clubs and more. There are many music clubs and organization on campus. It doesn't matter if you are a theater major or the star of the volleyball team there is way to continue your love of a hobby.
Great for these types of students Augie is great for students that want to be challenged that enjoy being challenged. Academics are a priority for many of the students on the campus. Hard working students find Augie to be a welcoming place.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Basketball games are filled with rowdy students who cheer and support the fellows. At every home game there is a theme and students dress up and gather in the student section. The team and the student section share a connection.
Bang for the buck Augustana College is expensive but you get what you par for. The professors and the faculty are top notch. You can tell that everyone on campus are concerned about the students.
What to do for fun There are a plethora of movie theaters, concerts, and sporting events going on in the city. There are always people to connect with who have similar interests. Downtown Sioux Falls has a lot to offer.
Food and Dining The Commons on campus has a wide range of food and there are always options. The salad and wrap bar is open for dinner and lunch. There is always a stir-fry bar as well.
Dorm Life There are events every weekend sponsored by the school and there are more events going on in the city. There is never a weekend that nothing is going on. About half of the students stay on campus every weekend.
Academic Rigor The courses and professors challenge the students everyday. But the bigger the challenge the more rewarding the grade is. Expect to spend time studying and working on assignments.
Tips for prospective students Make sure get involved on campus. There are many opportunities to reach out in the community on campus and off. The students on the campus are friendly and welcoming, don't be afraid to break out of your comfort zone.
In three sentences Augustana College provides an excellent community to learn, grow, and experience life. The professors are available to students in and out of the classroom. The education that Augustana offers prepares students for their career and their future life.

What to do for fun There is a lot of clubs and groups on campus. From sports to intellectual clubs Augie has it all.
Food and Dining The food is wonderful! There is something for almost everybody. My favorite is the wraps and the sandwiches. Plus who doesn't want ice cream after every meal?
Dorm Life From what I hear it is pretty good. I live at home so i am not exactly sure.
Academic Rigor Classes are tough but it is one on one feel and teachers aren't afraid to help you out.
Tips for prospective students Don't be afraid to make friends. Everyone on campus is really nice and so are the teachers. Get involved with something, whether it be theater or sports there is a place for you.
In three sentences Augustana is the perfect college for anyone he loves a small town atmosphere. It is a quaint little campus situated in the middle of lovely Sioux Falls, South Dakota and close to a lot of wonderful sites. Whether you like shopping, sports, or even hunting Augustana has it all.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Campus Safety is very nice and helpful. There are also safety poles scattered around campus. The safety poles have a direct line to the Campus Safety desk. When the button is pushed a Campus Safety officer will come to the pole with in a few minutes to assist you on anything from jump starting your car to actual safety concerns.
Greek Life Does not exist
Clubs and Activities There are so many different clubs and activities on campus. There are clubs dedicated to every major, and then the big groups on campus like Union Board of Governors (UBG) or Augustana Student Association (ASA).
Great for these types of students Augie is the perfect place for students who strive for success.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The Back Alley is probably the coolest place on campus. It used to be a bowling alley, but they transformed it into a place to host all of the UBG events. It is located in the Common's building, and there is always something going on there! We are also home to the Augieholics which are a group of die-hard Augie fans on campus. They pump-up the atmosphere at every sporting event, and almost everyone on campus has an awesome Augieholics shirt.
Bang for the buck Even though Augie is on the pricey side it is totally worth it. The professors get to know you in every class, and also have their doors open for students to just stop in. The classes are worth the price. The professors have experience in their fields, and know what they are talking about!
What to do for fun An on campus group, UBG, plans FREE events every Friday and Saturday night. The events include everything from dances and bands to movies and fashion shows. Other groups often have events going on during the week as well. UBG also hosts a big event where they bring in a popular musician. This year they are actually bringing both Macklemore and Phillip Phillips!
Food and Dining Our meal plan is pretty great. It is unlimited which means you can swipe your card as many times as you want from 7-7 everyday. Hot meals are not served the entire time, but there is soup, sandwiches, salad, and some other foods that you can eat. Also included in the meal plan is a transfer meal to the Huddle. So, if you have a really busy day, you can stop by the on campus grill and get a 'free' meal.
Dorm Life I love the dorm life. My floor is very laid back and go with the flow. Although it can get loud or crazy at times mostly it is a great place to study. Plus freshmen can choose between two dorms: Solberg and Bergsaker. Each has a different feel, but both are well liked.
Academic Rigor Coursework can be hard, specifically during interim or J-term. Students are pushed to succeed in the classroom, so that they will succeed in the real world.
Tips for prospective students Read everything that your professors assign you to read. Understand that even though you may have a week to do an assignment you should do it right away, because you will get even more homework. Join groups on campus, too!!
In three sentences Augustana is an amazing school with a great sense of community. It is a liberal arts college, so you take classes in many different fields, and classwork can be difficult. However, there are many free and fun events and opportunities on campus that make up for the difficult homework.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Campus Safety is awesome. They are always doing their job, but instead of looking to get students in trouble, they are looking out for the students and their safety. They are always reachable by the dial of a phone and will be there to help you jump your car in a matter of minutes!
Greek Life I was bummed to find out when applying that Augustana College did not have Greek Life, but they do have Theme Houses which are very similar!
Great for these types of students It's a liberal arts school so there are a lot of artsy, granola-y type kids here. But athletics are huge too, along with academics. So really, we have every kind of student here, and everything in between. It's a perfect fit for any type of student.
Bang for the buck It is pricey, but in my personal opinion, it could not be more worth it. Job placement percentages are off the charts compared to other schools.
What to do for fun Sioux Falls in general has a lot of options for stuff to do on the weekends, but Augustana College keeps you very busy with constant options for activities on and off campus. And don't think because we are a small, Christian school that we don't know how to have fun. :)
Food and Dining Great cafeteria with a wide variety of food, but the unlimited plan that they recently implemented is not the best in my opinion. If you do the math, it is $27 a day/$9 a meal, and I eat in the commons maybe once a day. If you eat in the commons regularly, it is worth it, but you get a much better $9 meal elsewhere.
Dorm Life The dorms are not great, they are small and could use a few improvements, but they do a great job of matching you up with a compatible roommate and you get used to the living situations very quickly. Dorm life is going to be relatively similar wherever you go.
Academic Rigor I went to a pretty prestigious high-school so I felt very prepared, but I am still working very hard to keep my grades up. They challenge you, but the benefits are 100% worth it.
Tips for prospective students Augustana College is smaller than most schools, but that is what makes it so great. It is like another family away from home, yet I still see new faces every day. The schoolwork is hard, but we make up for it in the fun we have here. Obviously it is not for everyone, but I would recommend it to anyone.
In three sentences Augustana College is my dream college. It the the perfect size, it is located in the perfect place, I have the most perfect work-study, I have the best professors and classes, and I have made the most perfect friends. I have never doubted that I made the right decision.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Campus Safety is wonderful. There are usually two or three officers on duty, and the buildings are all secure. If ever you need anything, there are phone posts on campus where you can call campus safety and they will assist you. At the beginning of the year they asked all freshmen to put their number into their cell phones, in case we are no where near the phone posts. I feel very safe being on campus.
Greek Life There is no Greek life.
Great for these types of students This school is good for students who value community and a great education. Everyone here is here because they want to learn and be in a strong community.
What to do for fun Every once in a while they do a Friday night activity called a Coffeehouse, when some type of singer comes and performs and there is a coffee bar with coffee, an alternative drink, and some type of snack. There are also some activities on Saturday nights hosted by the gym staff such as late night laser tag or ice skating. There's almost always something to do on campus, and if there is nothing that interests you, hanging out with friends is just as good!
Food and Dining The food is excellent. There is a wide variety to choose from. There are two main lines which change every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Then there is a line from which you can get an omelet in the morning or Chinese food during lunch and dinner. Next to that line is the vegetarian line, then there's a station where you can get a sandwich or wrap. Then there is a grill where they have pizza or pasta and burgers or some type of warm sandwich. Those are the main options, but there are several other things to choose from. The dining space is quite nice, too. There are many places to sit and you can stay as long as you need/want to.
Dorm Life The dorm life is not as bad as people say. I personally do not mind it that much. The rooms are a little small, but it is something you can easily adjust to. The bathrooms are shared by around twenty other girls, but there is seldom more than five or six girls in there at one time. And they are usually well kept. It's also nice having them co-ed. In the dorm I am in, the guys are on one side of the building and the girls on the other, and then there is a dividing door which is locked at night so no one can sneak in and out of the guy's and girl's wings.
Academic Rigor You have to be willing to do some work. There is usually reading that must be done for a majority of the classes, and of course there are tests and papers to be done. Many of the classes are discussion based, and it is expected that you have read the material and are prepared for class. It can be difficult sometimes, but the professors are more than willing to help find ways for you to succeed.
Tips for prospective students Do not let the tuition scare you. Augustana wants to help students of all economic backgrounds, and there are many ways to receive financial help. Also, don't be afraid about the freshman label. At this school, it doesn't exist. People do not pay attention to the status and there are no cliques. Everyone is welcome here on campus.
In three sentences It's a wonderful school. Teachers and students are friendly and want to be helpful. I feel like I am getting a decent education.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Augie is great for students who are willing to work hard and want to go far in life. Augie draws social people who don't give up easily.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The Back Alley is a cool little place on the ground floor of the commons. It used to be a bowling alley, but it was not used much so the college took out the bowling equipment and painted it to look a little cooler. Now we use it for smaller concerts and events, some fitness class, dances, and just as a general hangout place.
Bang for the buck It is pricey to go to Augie, but it is worth it. The education that you get from Augie is a good one. The professors care about you as individuals. They get to know you by name and try to help you do your best in their classes. We have some of the best programs in the country for the sciences, the arts, and Sign Language Interpreting (my major).
What to do for fun There are activities on campus on a daily basis. UBG (the Union Board of Governors) has activities all the time: Concerts, events, comedians, parties, dances, etc. And all the different clubs have their own meetings and events on a weekly basis.
Food and Dining The food at college is not your mom's cooking. Just putting that out there. That being said, the dining services at Augie are very, very good. The staff are all very friendly and always willing to ask how your day was. They get to know you. The variety of food available on a daily basis is very good. During meal times, there is available a main meal, stir-fry/omelets, pizza, hamburgers, sandwiches, dessert, and a salad bar. And even in the off times you can get food in the huddle or a sandwich from cafeteria. They also have fun nights planned every month or so. They plan huge campus-wide meals. It is so much fun and I love it.
Dorm Life The dorms are not the best. They have their ups and downs. Visit the campus at least once to get a feeling for what you are getting into and keep your mind open. The loving and accepting community and ongoing activities are well worth it. Augie requires that you live on campus for 2-3 years after you graduate high school. The friends that you will meet and develop relationships with will help you through all your ups and downs. The community of Augie is one of the main reasons I am staying at Augie.
Academic Rigor I have heard that the science classes are very hard. But as for the classes that I have taken so far, the work is hard but well worth the effort. If you work hard and try your best, you will succeed. This is not a school for slackers.
Tips for prospective students Do well in school, don't sell yourself short, apply for as many scholarships as you can, and don't let the price or the standings intimidate you. You can make it in if you work for it.
In three sentences Augustana is an amazing college with great professors. The community there is very friendly and welcoming. It is hard word, but well work the effort.
