I can't speak for Nebraska - don't know what brands are popular there, but Northface is a pretty popular jacket/parka brand up here. They're pretty light but really warm.
Columbia jackets are nice because they have a jacket and then a windbreaker zipped to it - which you can zip apart to wear each on their own - so it's three jackets in one. They are sturdy, cute and WARM.
Also, make sure she has a WARM pair of boots. Cute doesn't cut it. Walking to class with cold feet is not fun.

NOT the Denali. Yes, they're super popular (I love mine for fall), but they're not warm enough for winter, especially in Nebraska. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Northface TriClimate jacket, however. I have a Columbia that I love as well.
