Last week was Homecoming at LSU, commemorating the 100th anniversary of Tiger Stadium and providing members of the LSU community a chance to paint, dance and celebrate what makes them proud to be tigers.
To kickstart Homecoming Week 2024, the LSU Residential Hall Association hosted Splatterbeat, the annual paint party where students can shoot paint at their peers and get covered in different colors.
Bioscience major Treiu Nguyen, a freshman who had never experienced a color war before, said the event was “super cool” and “exciting.”
On Wednesday, the National Pan-Hellenic Council hosted a Greek Step Show, where LSU’s fraternities and sororities performed choreographed-routines in homage to each one of their beginnings. Dances performed by the Divine Nine brought a lively atmosphere to the River Center Theatre for Performing Arts, where the event was held.
“I was very impressed by the talent and dedication that they put into their work,” said broadcast journalism freshman Addison Gonzalez. “It really shows in their performances.”
On Thursday two events took place: the Greek Life Block Party and Geaux Diva Live. The Greek Life Block Party took place on Sorority Row with food trucks, live music from The Bends and Thomas Pate and a jambalaya cookoff. The party aimed to bring students from different sororities and fraternities together, along with students who are not involved in Greek Life.
