A school bus that rolled down the hill between the Swenson Hall of Geosciences and the Slough has been safely towed away. 

According to Nicole Lauer, Public Relations and Marketing Specialist at Augustana, at around 7:30 this morning a bus with less than 10 students drove into the circle drive at the Swenson Hall of Geosciences and “jumped the curb.”

In an email to the Observer, Lauer said all passengers were able to exit the bus safely, and that no injuries were reported. 

According to Lauer, signs are posted near the Admissions lot advising buses not to drive along the circle drive.

The bus was from Johannes Bus Service.
