WELCOME

The Bietz Center for Student Life is a space dedicated to the current student body of Southern Adventist University. It offers multiple areas for students to spend quality time together, outside of the academic environment. The Bietz Center, Southern's student center, opened in the Summer of 2021. The 43,000 square foot facility provides opportunities for students to socialize, decompress, study, and connect with services that contribute to their mental and Spiritual well-being.
