Come tie dye with the Student Alumni Association!

The Student Alumni Association is hosting a free event to tie dye SAA T-shirts at 11 a.m. today, Tuesday, Aug. 29, at the Arkansas Union Mall. There will be 1,000 T-shirts available to tie dye on a first come, first served basis. The event is open to all students, faculty and staff.

Erin Smith, vice president of membership engagement, said there was a large turnout at this event last year and is hoping for another great turnout.

"It's a fun way to welcome students back to campus and give them an insight of what the SAA has to offer," Smith said.

The Student Alumni Association is the largest registered student organization on campus. Created by students in 2003, this student organization is designed to inspire loyalty, preserve University of Arkansas traditions, and establish the bond between the University of Arkansas students and alumni. Annual student memberships are $20. Student Alumni Association members receive discounts on textbooks, more than 100 perks, alumni engagement and free Beat shirts during football season.
