    Let's help this guy out. Any coverage of the Cajuns in the Lafayette market is good.

    Speaking of coverage, where is the director of broadcasting?

    My name is Caelan and I’m a journalist for the Vermilion, UL’s student newspaper. I’m looking to travel and report on all Cajuns’ games this season, and for the goal on that drive, I can do just that.

    Thank you for your consideration
    Keep plugging. And it's good that the criticisms don't bother you. My observation, FWIW, would be that you consider staying objective, and try to avoid the personal. But either way, it is your right, and obligation, as a journalist. There have been forces since the founding (some of whom later on, ironically, were the Founders) who would like to restrain or eliminate the free press.

    Stick with it, learn, but don't back down.

    FWIW, I made the Minnesota game some years back. Weather was spectacular, and the campus straddles the Mississippi River via a two-level bridge: one for cars, one for pedestrians & bicycles (with a series of central enclosed halls, which are warmed in winter). Don't miss it.

    On the way up, I sat next to the late Judge K. Saloom II. I was making jokes about Minnesota cuisine being an oxymoron.

    However... when we got there, the Judge was meeting up with a local judge, an old friend of his, who recommended the Cafe Alma near campus. (It's still there.)

    I discovered I owed Minnesota an apology. The dining was first-rate, and quite reasonably priced. But then, as one Minnesotan told me after I related this story, "What d'you think we do all winter?"

    I sure won’t. I’ll keep pushing to get to that Minnesota game

    So I'm not working right now and money is pretty tight at the moment, but I will revisit this before football starts and hope to help.

    Do we need to do a RP donation drive?

    I think you should pick this up closer to football season and possibly request the amount needed for each away game. Might have a little more success that way. Hell, you might even be able to catch a ride to some of the games with some travelling knuckleheads.
