My favorite LSUA professor is Dr. Allen. There never has been and likely never will be a dull moment with this character of a chemistry lab professor. He is extremely dedicated to his job and also incredibly intelligent, not only this, but he is the most wildly hilarious person you will ever meet in your life.
I chose LSUA, because not only both of my parents were alumni, but it also fitted my needs perfectly. I love the very close community vibes and atmosphere everywhere around campus. I also love how personable you get to be with those around you, including your professors. That level of closeness that you get at LSUA simply isn’t available anywhere else and truly enhances the overall educational process greatly.
My favorite spot on campus has to be any of the swings that are located outside all throughout the green space. I love being outside in nature and being able to watch the squirrels, the birds, and even just enjoy the weather is so nice to do in a peaceful way on the swings.
My advice to incoming students would be not to overload yourself. It’s easy to think a lot of the time that you’re not doing enough, but more often than not you are. Do not take yourself for granted, and know that the work you’re doing will pay off in the future, and that there are going to be a lot of rough times in college that everyone will go through, but ultimately they will pay off whenever you receive your degree, I would also say enjoy the journey.
