Seniors travel to Southern Adventist University for college visit

For two days starting Sunday afternoon, the entire Senior Class will travel to Collegedale, Tennessee and visit with the faculty and students of Southern Adventist University.  SAU opens campus to academy students this weekend to experience college life–academics, food, dorm life and fun. This time can be used by students to think about life after high school, possible college majors, careers, and financial aid.  The time is not all focused on academics.  There is time to meet and get acquainted with other seniors from around the Southern Union.  After a full day of activities on Monday students will return to the Madison campus in late evening.
