Southern Arkansas University

Congratulations to the students of Trice Elementary School for great showings at the Regional Science Fair held on the SAU campus.

Classes for the Spring Semester at SAU start-up this Wednesday, January 12, and with the surge in Omnicron cases the university is changing things up a little.

Southern Arkansas University in Magnolia is getting ready to celebrate its annual Celebration of Lights on Thursday, December 2.

How great is this? I love to see our history preserved and if you have ever been to the campus of Southern Arkansas University then you most likely have seen the beautiful historic Bussey Hall. It is one of the landmarks on campus.

The extraordinary generosity of SAU’s alumni and friends led to this year’s seventh annual Giving Day becoming one for the books.

It's been a fun summer tradition for kids and teens every summer and there are big hopes that this summer the Mulerider Kids and Teen Colleges will be in-person at Southern Arkansas University. Last year the MKC and MTC were virtual and they were a big success.

It's been a crazy and challenging year with the pandemic and with the Christmas season cupon us, Southern Arkansas University continues to serve their area with holiday traditions by reaching out to the ones in most need in the area.

It's good to see that the pandemic hasn't hindered the quest for knowledge and education. With increased graduate enrollment and new and growing programs, the Southern Arkansas University System saw higher enrollment numbers this fall in spite of the negative trends caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Southern Arkansas University’s Supplemental Instruction (SI) program is proud to announce that it is now the only one in the state of Arkansas to have achieved the honor of certification by the International Center for Supplemental Instruction at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.

Southern Arkansas University is now approved to offer the Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) in Rural and Diverse Educational Leadership according to a recent decision by its regional accreditor, the Higher Learning Commission.

This year graduates at Southern Arkansas University are set to walk the stage and receive their diplomas after accomplishing their achievements this past May. SAU announced that it will hold Summer Commencement ceremonies at Wilkins Stadium on August 7 and August 8 with some special considerations for gathering.

It may be early summer but it's a good idea to start thinking about the fall school-wise that is.  Southern Arkansas University is thinking ahead too. In response to the COVID-19 situation, they have modified their calendar for Fall 2020. Classes will now begin August 11, 2020, and end Nov. 20, 2020.
