On Friday, Sept. 18, Augustana University celebrated the rededication of the Chapel of Reconciliation following the completion of a $4.4 million donor-funded renovation and expansion project — renewing a space that has served as a place for worship, reflection and community for more than four decades.

As Augustana University embarked on the renovation and expansion of its Chapel of Reconciliation, the owl statue Hindsight, Insight, Foresight was moved from its long-time home outside of Morrison Commons for refurbishment. The chapel and campus patio upgrades would lead to the discovery of a 40-year-old time capsule hidden within the statue. The capsule will be on display during Viking Days at Vikings Reunite on Saturday, Oct. 24, at Midco Arena.

Augustana University welcomed a total of 2,652 students — part- and full-time undergraduate and graduate students — for Academic Year 2026-27. Hailing from 46 states and 48 countries, the number marks the largest ever student body in Augustana’s 166-year history.
