All of us at SAU are excited about the beginning of a new school year. For beginning freshmen and their parents, the semester starts this coming Saturday, August 23, with B.A.M. II. Parents will be receiving a letter about activities that are scheduled just for you on Saturday - orientation, reception, and University Expo, Merchants on the Mall, and a cookout to end the day. For a full schedule of events, go to the B.A.M. II page on the SAU Web site.
As always, feel free to contact me if you have any questions. My telephone number is 870-235-4012 or you can e-mail me at dyallen@saumag.edu. I look forward to seeing you on Saturday. Have a safe trip to the campus.
Sincerely,
Dr. Donna Y. Allen
Vice President of Student Affairs
