HAMMOND – Southeastern Louisiana University’s annual “Rock ‘n Roar” is scheduled
in the Student Union from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 24, and promises to be
a fun-filled day for students and local families. Held in conjunction each year with
the District 8 Literary Rally, Rock n’ Roar is open to the public.
In its 27th year, Rock ‘n Roar showcases Southeastern’s academics and community
for approximately 3,800 students from more than 80 visiting District 8 Literary Rally
high schools, as well as Southeastern students, alumni and community friends. Patrons
of all ages can enjoy educational displays by Southeastern’s departments, food, music
and more. Rock ‘n Roar will also feature a variety of children’s games and activities.
“We are excited to show these top students what Southeastern has to offer,” said
Recreational Sports and Wellness Director Eric Aymond. “A group of faculty and staff
from across campus have worked to provide these students a Lion worthy experience
while they wait for tests to start or for their classmates to finish.”
Admission to Rock ‘n Roar is free.
