Southern Arkansas University - the most affordable, fastest growing university in Arkansas

Southern Arkansas University, in partnership with the City of Magnolia and Columbia County, has announced the fifth annual Blue & Gold Day on Tuesday, August 20, 2019, from 5 p.m.-7 p.m. on the Magnolia Square.

On this day, the Magnolia community is encouraged to wear blue and gold in support of SAU and to come out and enjoy a great evening of fellowship between Magnolia citizens and SAU students.

This year’s event will continue the exciting collaboration between SAU and Magnolia High School with a pep rally to be held at 6 p.m.

“The SAU slogan feels like home came directly from our incoming freshman class based on their initial visits to campus,” said Dr. Trey Berry, SAU president. “We want Magnolia to feel like home for our students, as well. Blue & Gold Day is the perfect way to introduce these new residents to all that Magnolia has to offer. We are excited once again to have Magnolia High School join us for a community-wide pep rally to kick off the fall academic year and football season!” (more…)
