Here, you get a peek at what it’s like to be an SAU student from those who actually are SAU students. The SAUspace bloggers each represent a different slice of life at the Arbor. So, let us make the introductions. Hover over each blogger’s picture to read a snippet about who they are and then go to their blog, where you’ll get the full story.
Mark (class of ’13) grew up in a family of ten in Holland, Michigan, where he was homeschooled from kindergarten through high school. Mark is studying graphic design and photography at SAU, where he hopes to grow as an artist and as a follower of Christ.
Kendra (class of ’14) is passionate about people, whether that’s cheering on the home team or fighting for juveniles’ rights. A criminal justice major and psychology minor, Kendra hopes to make a difference in the world someday. In the meantime, she loves studying at SAU, growing closer to Christ and hanging with friends.
Miles (class of ’15) is a freshman, worship arts leadership major from Whitmore Lake. He loves leading worship and can’t wait to do so on SAU’s campus. He hopes to get involved in some of SAU’s musical groups and, as a huge theater buff, can’t wait to get involved with the drama department’s productions.
Julie (class of ’13) comes to SAU from Holland, on Michigan’s west coast. She is a junior transfer student who is studying psychology and minoring in business administration. When she isn’t studying, you’ll likely find her playing intramural sports or exploring her creative side.
Josh (class of ’12) is a 5th year senior preparing to graduate from SAU and embark on the career world. He is a language arts major with an elementary education concentration. He plans to work in the book publishing industry after college and continue writing, especially blogging!
Zachariah (class of ’14) studies film at SAU. When not capturing images with his camera, he likes to show off his versatile musical skills, as well as long board, skateboard, bike, fish, hunt and hike. But, more than all that, he loves learning about Christ and spreading the Good News to those around him.
On campus, many students are finishing projects, writing papers, and studying for J-term finals. I can’t believe that J-term ends on Tuesday!

On Thursday, January 19, my art foundations class took a field trip to the Art Museum in Toledo. It was very fun. We left at 11:30 am and arrived back on campus around 5:30 pm. As we arrived to the museum, everyone began to take their cameras and phones out and prepare to have a [...]
The last Sunday of J-term has arrived. It’s weird to pretty much be done with one of my last J-terms at Spring Arbor University!! Not sure how I feel about it just yet. But being that it is Sunday, this is the day that I love to just relax. As scripture says, the “Sabbath was [...]

He is joined by 2 new assistant coaches (Jessica Piper and Paul Slater). On Saturday, my dad and sister drove 2 hours to Spring Arbor University and joined me to watch [...]
With a lighter class load (more like homework load) I have been able to find more time to work on some photography stuff this J-term and that has been awesome! This past week, I was able to shoot with my good friend and fellow SAU student, Matt Voiles. This summer, Matt is looking to work [...]
