Why New Orleans Matters!

A power point presentation that celebrates the spirit of New Orleans: The food, the music, the festivals and the people who live there. Thats what my group and I are hoping to produce after reading this piece. We want to follow in Tom Piazza'a footsteps by explaining what would have been lost if New Orleans remained in ruins after Katrina. we want to show  bit of what it was, and show much more about how far it has come. Hopefully, we will be able to find plans to continue building up the city. We can show its past, present and the plans for the future. Here are a few of the pieces that we may include in the presentation.

This week BSU spreads the message of friendship and enjoyable experiences in Sororities and Fraternities. Any hazing on new members is not only frowned upon, its a punishable offense. I am going to interview a new member of a sorority here on campus and have her explain some of her experiences with joining. I also plan to interview some of the sisters who help with the selection process during rush week. I will get their opinions about hazing and the opinions of staff as well. In the end I will make a point to examine whether hazing is indeed being forced out of the campus for good, or if it still exists as a threat to potential members. I included a link explaining some examples of hazing on a college campus. The link is not very recent, so do not take the percentages and averages too seriously. Hopefully hazing is indeed on the decline.
