Fast Facts
Theodore Roosevelt once said, “Nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care.” At AU, my students know I care about them. I am able to not only instruct minds in the classroom but also nurture hearts as I connect with students and colleagues around campus.
AU is more than an institution of higher learning…it’s a family that focuses on traveling this journey of life with Christ at the center and success as the goal. We are small enough to build relationships but large enough that you meet new people every day!
