On our new edition of SAU Weekly, we sit down with our Provost Dr. Joe Roidt to discuss the joint venture between SAU and Mount Mercy. Plus, they’re halfway there! With graduation only a week away for seniors, how our sophomores are also finding ways to celebrate. And, campus reacts to the dining transition as Cosgrove Cafeteria closes for renovation. And in sports, Spirit Squad Director Danelle Langeneckert looks back at her landmark career here at SAU. Also, how one e-sports team nabbed their first-ever national title. And, we take a closer look at the NAIA’s ban on transgender athletes from women’s sports.
