Verdier 2017
This spring, Augustana marks the 15th anniversary of the Covenant Awards, the honor recognizing students who exemplify the University's five core values: Christian, Liberal Arts, Excellence, Community and Service.
From Norwegian to English, "verdier" translates to "values; the moral principles and beliefs or accepted standards of a person or community."
