Why do we hate our students!!!

Looking at this, it appears that during Family Days may be one of the only times that students under the legal drinking age of 21 could under applicable Louisiana laws legally possess and drink alcohol on campus and during university sporting events . . .

That’s right. MADD has been around for several decades and done some great things, but as with any power group they have overreached.

You’re correct in this case is the university becoming illegal parents of people who have reached majority age.

Frankly I am offended that we apparently need a super majority age in several areas but can force young people into the draft if needed.

Just maybe it is because all sporting events at UL are FREE. If students paid a fee to attend events as part of tuition like many schools do, maybe they would put more value in attending. Secondly, a game needs to be an event that students (and fans) participate in. UL games are boring, not because of the play on the field, because there is no active fan participation. Look at P5 programs and listen to the whole stadium cheering and yelling and actively participating in the game. We have it at baseball and softball games. Why don't we have that at UL football games and basketball games as well? I have said for years now that game day management needs an overhaul, but that goes on deaf ears. Thirdly, we need to regain the excitement of tailgating for students and fans. We used to have great tailgating, packed parking lots, excitement in the air. How did we lose that?

I surmise that their fan base is older. Look how many here complain because the music is too loud and they play too much of dat hippity hop.

My Son informed me the Frats are still getting hammered from homecoming. They are killing the student experience by threating to suspend socials, etc.

Anyone else that has kids in Greek life hear this?

Well, I can tell you my fraternity had music blasting with, "F***" this, and ,"F***" that, in front of small children.

Instead of educating common sense principles, they will issue another pseudo law that those without principles will try to bend.

Honest question here because I don't know- why are small children around the student tailgating area?

Possibly playing from the floats in the parade? Other than that, I don’t see why kids would be around the frats.

I honestly can’t figure out where the morality line is and why everyone is so hellbent on drawing it to begin with. It’s okay to blast music with profanities from the speakers of the stadium but not okay if 18-21 year olds blare it from their parade floats/tailgates? It’s okay for underage kids to drink but not okay to smoke weed or vice versa depending on who you ask? No wonder our games aren’t fun. It’s a social acceptability p!$$ing match instead of a party.
