The Augustana PRISM Alliance provided support to Augustana College students of all sexualities and genders. The group also worked to educate the campus community about issues faced by the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) community. The Augustana PRISM Alliance records, 2004-2009 and undated, consists of one faculty advisor's binder with the group's constitution, meeting minutes, financial records, correspondence, newspaper clippings, and ephemera.

The Hold Augie Accountable protest was held in October 2016, following an incident involving racist statements chalked around Augustana’s campus. This collection documents the chalking incident, the protest, and the immediate aftermath of the protest, including policy decisions made by Augustana administrators and students’ reactions. The collection includes agendas, speeches, news articles, photographs, recordings, artwork, artifacts, and web content generated during the protests.
