Semester Shutdown

Semester Shutdown at AU

Semester Shutdown at Augustana University is a beloved campus tradition where students gather during finals time for activities, crafts, snacks and prize-winning competitions.

  • The Fall Semester Shutdown is a collaborative event coordinated through the Office of Student Engagement that includes a wide variety of student organizations and university offices. 
  • The Spring Semester Shutdown is coordinated by the new UBG programming board as their first event. 
  • Both semesters include Moonlight Breakfast followed by bingo in the Ordal Dining Hall (ODH).
