Since its founding in 1909, Southern Arkansas University has been a leader in higher education in southwest Arkansas. Although its origins were humble – an agricultural high school teaching reading, writing, arithmetic, agriculture, and home economics – it has grown into a comprehensive, regional, four-year university offering 71 undergraduate and graduate degrees.
