We are Saxons! Every week we celebrate Saxon Fridays wearing our best purple, gold and AU gear both on and off-campus. #saxonfriday
Hot dogs? Yep, we honor them by eating them. A lot of them. Dogs, more dogs, even not dogs. Our annual spring festival raises funds for local nonprofit agencies and includes an artisan fair, parade down Main Street, games, and activities. And dogs.
A statue of King Alfred stands in the center of campus. Students often dress him up to mark special occasions. You may see him sporting a purple shirt for orientation or a pumpkin for Halloween.
As part of our Hot Dog Day celebrations, students race soapbox derby-style cars they build in our annual Pine Hill Derby.
