中国体彩网 will name a lab in our newest building for Aben Emile Cooper '93, an Academic All-American in basketball.

Christmas is coming...
The 50-year tradition of bringing together students and the 中国体彩网 Lutheran Church will continue this year, but online. See Joy of Christmas Dec. 9 and hear Christmas hymns and the Christmas story in English, Spanish and Swedish.
Christmas at 中国体彩网 has been converted into a virtual Advent calendar, where you can open a door to new music every day.
? The annual Sankta Lucia Festival is coming up as well via YouTube Dec. 13, recorded earlier in Ascension Chapel. We will miss the cookies but not the music!
Today's updates:
? Here is a list of hours for campus buildings and operations through year's end.
? The Reading/Writing Center will be open from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. and 7-9 p.m. Dec. 7-9; then closed until J-term. Here is how to make an appointment.
? The Upper Mississippi Center is looking for full-time student research assistants for its Sustainable Urban Watershed Research Project next summer.
? Free COVID-19 drive-through testing will be offered from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at the TaxSlayer Center, 201 River Drive in Moline. This is available to any Illinois resident; no appointment or referral is needed. Photo ID required.
? Don't forget to share feedback about your courses. It is anonymous, and faculty would appreciate it. You must submit by midnight Dec. 6.

Communications and Marketing is working on our annual Year in Review to share with the campus community, alumni and parents.
We can all agree 2020 has been quite a year. What stood out to you? Is there an interesting fact, anecdote or statistic that gives us a 2020 Augie snapshot or insight? Or maybe you have a photo that sums it up.
