The students that goes here faces alot of things such as molded dorms, overlooked attention, housing is never on top of the work orders that are put in by students & a lot more. If something is needed to be fixed in an on campus apartment, it takes for the parents to constantly call in order for something to be resolved. No matter how much the student puts in work orders, still nothing gets done. Summer/Fall move in was in June of this year & my friend noticed that the microwave in her ON CAMPUS APARTMENT was unaligned, she's still waiting for her work order concerning that to be completed & fixed just like the vanity light in the bathroom & a swarm of fruit flies that SHE has to deal with because no one from housing is doing ANYTHING about it. June-December is ridiculous. Also, her dryer has been down since late October early November & nothing has been done about it. We're in December, what the heck is taking so long for anything to get handled? Maintenance, took the knob off of the dryer, didn't notify her nor did they repair it. Just left the screws on the floor & went about they day. Multiple work orders put in, no accommodations nor fixation, but always want their tuition paid on time. Check on your students mental health, it's so much that goes on at this university that gets swept under the rug. UL, do better as a university, instead of worrying about handing out parking tickets & building a new stadium, it's starting to be a headache.

There's a lot of local pride for the school around town, more so than in a lot of other cities, and for this reason I think it's a great school, and it does a great job rallying the community and what not.

I rarely have high expectations for churches in small cities (#1), but St John really blew me away…read more From top to bottom, inside and out, it is immaculate. I had attended a wedding here recently and came away super impressed. First of all this cathedral is massive. The seating capacity well exceeds the usual several hundred and may bleed into the quadruple digits. The seats are spacious and the pews are relatively comfortable. There is an adjoining space that is used as a gathering hall across the parking lot. As big as this place is, the parking is quite limited. Like most things down South, it's really old. We're talking practically 200 years old (1821) and still well maintained and as iconic as ever. Any older and it may precede the Louisiana Purchase (#2). and situated in the middle of downtown Lafayette is pretty incredible. I would venture for anyone in the Lafayette area to host their Catholic celebrations here. Combined with the catering hall next door, it is a fantastic space and ideal for all occasions. __________ (#1) I should have known better, it's the South. (#2) Which happened in 1803.

We couldn't have picked a better day to visit the area, the temperature was perfect with low humidity and no bugs - you must allow yourself plenty of time to soak in the peaceful surroundings and get out of your vehicle to get up close to the wonders of this garden. Besides the beautiful grounds and water structures there are plenty of surprises you'll discover along the way we unfortunately didn't see any alligators or deer today but there were an abundance of birds, a few turtles basking in the sun and lots of squirrels scurrying through the grounds and giant oak trees. This is a beautiful place and just one of the wonders you'll find while exploring Louisiana I've lived in Louisiana for almost half my life and I'm still amazed at the beauty this state has to offer this is just one of the many places that's preserved and protected for generations to enjoy and appreciate...
