    When I was there, the conference center was actually very nice... remember.. the conference center was also used as a hotel, and you could rent rooms by the night!

    Just don't wait too long to get lined up. Chances are that there will be over 20,000 students at UL by Fall 2016. I know this is nothing compared to La Tech, but every room will be spoken for.

When your so drunk your hugging the porcelain god at the end of the night you tend to forget 20 other disgusting sob's use that toilet. Ahh the 80s.

    Hope that helps.
    I was there in '89. Man that was a ____hole, but we had fun!

    What was the old dorm closest to Girard park. Had huge rooms but minimal heat and air. Probably was the oldest men's dorm back then

    The oldest were Roy and Caffery. McCollough stood between them. Both were suites with a bath for four rooms two facing Rex two facing the back.

    The Conference Center has to be the last bastion of the old dorms. Stokes is gone. Voorhies & McCullogh both gone. Denbo & Bancroft gone. Baker-Huger gone. Most of the girl dorms around the mini-quad are all new. Anyone remember the name of the old UP dorm on Boucher? When my brother lived there it was a total ____ hole...as was the second floor of the International Student Office where I lived from 2001 to 2005.

    From what I see, there are only two dorms that have not been changed in the last few years: Harris Hall (which was and remains a female only dorm) and the CC.

    Randolph was not demolished but was re-purposed into some kind of activity center, I believe. I believe that used to be a girls only dorm too, IIRC. Also unchanged was Cajun Village.

    Everything else has been demolished and replaced, unless someone knows of another one that was not.

    Yep...it has the corner front entry like Burke-Hawthorne, and that new Rose Garden dorms mimic. Randolph is on Hebrard Blvd, across from Declouet.

    So, Voorhies Hall was the dorm closest to Johnston, where the day care center is now.....and McCullough was near the park, in between Caffery and Roy......the three were demolished to build legacy park. Right? Or was McCullough the one near Johnston? I always got those two confused.
