SAU mascot to be carried by two mules this season
This Saturday will be the first Mulerider home football game in more than 20 years at Southern Arkansas University that the beloved mule, Molly B, will not be carrying the mascot. It is going to take two mules to fill her shoes.
The loyal and gentle Molly B passed away on March 5, 2013, at the SAU farm. More than 100 members of the Mulerider family, including students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends, attended a memorial service at SAU this spring in honor of the iconic mule.

New UA Lab Allows Students to Explore Science Behind Food
It’s all about food, says one University of Alabama professor. “Food is the core of nutrition, and it’s an integral part of the hospitality industry,” said Dr. Mary Kay Meyer, professor and chair of the human nutrition and hospitality management program in UA’s College of Human Environmental Sciences.
“We talk about what food does to the body, but if you can’t get the food into the body, you’ve lost the battle,” Meyer said. “I want students to be excited about food and really appreciate what you can do with food, if you have the right equipment.”
Students enrolled in food and nutrition courses should have no problem garnering some enthusiasm this semester, thanks to the recently completed $1.5 million state-of-the-art foods lab located on the ground floor of Doster Hall.
