Louisiana State University and Agricultural & Mechanical College Top Questions

Um, I really coudn't tell you whats unique about our school because I haven't seen many others, but We have lots of awesome oak trees!

I don't know.

LSU offers a wide variety of lucrative and excellent career majors. The broad range of engineering majors was a huge influence.

Our school has been largely built up to the size it is because of the famous governer, Huey P. Long. Also, our school has it's roots deep in the military history. We used to train men joining the army and send them to WWI and WWII and all sorts of other deals. Plus, what other school can have such a great level of diversity among its students, but since it rests in southern Louisiana, all get to expereince that great Cajun flair!

The environment always has great energy. People are friendly and open. Everyone wants to share their knowledge and culture. There are unlimited possibilities with regards to activities and people.

LSU is a community within itself. It is a beautiful and diverse campus, with everything necessary for work and play available to the students and faculty.

The culture of Baton Rouge is exceptional. Everyone is involved with football season and the community really comes together. You can't go anywhere in Louisiana without seeing purple and gold.

There is nothing really unique about LSU. Although other students may feel a strong connection to LSU, I have never felt that I belong there. Therefore, I can not define why it is unique.

I was a "nontraditional" student. I went to LSU to get a degree in Psychology at the age of 33 and graduated at 34, having spent four consecutive semesters there. I loved my time at LSU. I was able to achieve a 4.0 GPA. However, I was only able to accomplish this because of my own personal standards of achievement. The environment certainly didn't lend me a hand with this goal. There are times when I wish I had been at Tulane or some other school that had allowed me to really absorb the whole academic side of things in an easier and more rigorous fashion. But I do not regret going to LSU. I enjoyed my time there tremendously and have nothing but fond memories.

My main reason for picking this school over another was cost, but that's not the only reason. I felt like I belonged here because I've never met anyone who graduated not love it! Despite its large size you can still find those friends that are going to be with you forever. The sense of community here is abundant and it was a major factor in my happiness after the first semester. There are so many clubs and groups that you're bound to find a niche of great people!
