Something extra. That's what Lagniappe Week is all about. Each spring, students take a break from studying with fun activities: canoe races in Cypress Lake, the annual lake jump and a crawfish boil.

Our Ring Ceremony celebrates the bond between all UL graduates. Students and past graduates are presented with the rings they ordered by President Savoie during the ceremony.

The night before the ceremony, the rings are loaded onto a custom-built metal pirogue to spend the night on the water, guarded by students. Watch highlights of the 2013 spring ceremony.

Whether you graduated in 1965 or 2015, Homecoming gives Ragin’ Cajuns a perfect opportunity to reconnect with campus. During Homecoming Week, students, faculty, staff, alumni and fans can take part in activities such as Paint the Town Red, Yell Like Hell, an alumni tennis or golf tournament, or the Ragin’ Road Race.
