AU’s Premier Community Building Event Organization
The Spirit & Traditions Board (STB) helps plan events that bring students from different backgrounds together and find ways to acknowledge and appreciate the exceptional students who contribute to AU's success. Our goal is to unite the university community through our efforts. We organize events and projects that celebrate AU's traditions and values, and promote a strong feeling of pride and belonging.
