Introducing: The SAU Student Blog
Hey Cougars! We hope you are all settling into the new school year well. This year, we decided it was time to start a student-led blog! The blog will be focused on everything student life - from campus events, local things to do, tips, and everything and anything in between. We want our blog to be a place where current students and future ones can come and gain insight into what goes on at SAU. We will be posting a new article every Tuesday to the website, you can also find the link to the most recent article on our Instagram account (@springarboru), so stay tuned!
We have an amazing group of student writers, you can find out more information on them all below. If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to slide into our Instagram DM's @springarboru or send Blair an email at [email protected].
Meet Your Writers
Mia Adkins
Hey guys! My name is Mia Adkins and I am from Adrian, MI. I am a senior studying Video/Film Production and Advertisement. I enjoy music, art, and film and outside of school you can find me at Musgrove + Company in Jackson. Like a lot of seniors, I am not positive on what my plans post graduation will look like exactly but am excited to see what the future has. I hope to share about some of the things I love around campus as well as around Spring Arbor.
Aubre Cashman-Brown
Hello! My name is Aubre, I am a senior Psychology major from Deckerville, Michigan. I am on the Competitive Cheer team here at Spring Arbor. I love going on spontaneous trips, reading, longboarding and going on walks with my dog Oaklee. A fun fact about me is that I can do an incredibly accurate goat impression. I'm excited to share some things I wish I knew before venturing through college with you all, and possibly some good book recommendations!
Bella Chirco
Hi guys! My name is Bella, and I am from Washington Twp, MI. I am a senior here studying Psychology with a minor in Art! I also throw on the track and field team. After I graduate, I plan on going to grad school to further my studies in psychology, possibly with a concentration on play therapy or art therapy. Some of my favorite things that have come from SAU are my friends and the throwing team, so I would love to talk about how Spring Arbor has furthered these relationships. I also love exploring and taking pictures, so I will be sharing my favorite spots around campus and the city of Jackson!
Blair Currie
Hey everyone! I'm Blair Currie, a junior from Christchurch, New Zealand. I major in digital communications and marketing while also being on the women's soccer team. When I'm not over at the soccer field, you can usually find me in the library ordering an iced caramel latte (basic I know) from Sacred Grounds. I love all things sports and I especially love the DC brownies. Being so far away from home, the community we have at SAU is something I greatly appreciate. My blogs will be a mix of covering sporting events, student spotlights and general student life. Go Cougs!
Emma Van Buren
Hey! I'm Emma Van Buren, a senior Digital Communication & Marketing major from Blissfield, Michigan. I have been serving as the lead student photographer and visual design intern for our Marketing & Communication Office on campus for a little over 2 years. When I have free time, I love to travel to new places, play pickleball with friends (Francis isn't that good by the way), and create new designs for my small business. If you ever see me out and about taking photos at an event, come say hi, I love meeting new people!
