You’ll want to save the date for two great events Northwestern State University is planning, which will both be held on March 23, 2018.
Flavor of Louisiana:
President Chris and First Lady Jennifer Maggio invite the public to the Flavor of Louisiana, a spring fundraiser and seafood extravaganza that celebrates our donors, supporters, alumni and students at NSU.
The Louisiana Seafood Board partnered with the NSU Foundation to showcase specialty dishes from some of the greatest restaurants across Louisiana.
Flavor of Louisiana will be held Friday, March 23 at 6 pm with music, cocktails, and specialty dishes at NSU’s Prather Coliseum. In conjunction with this event, the six colleges at NSU will host their very own fundraising booths that will assist in raising money for each of the colleges.
This event is hosted by the NSU Foundation and the Louisiana Seafood Board. All proceeds go to support the NSU faculty, staff, programs, and scholarships.
“This year we have added two new sponsorship levels, and have incorporated NSU’s six colleges to play a role in this event, said Rebekah Burleson, Assistant Director of Development. “With a large selection of great food, live entertainment, and good company, this is an event you do not want to miss.”

Long Purple Line – Hall of Fame Luncheon:
NSU will honor six graduates by inducting them into the University’s alumni hall of distinction, the Long Purple Line at a luncheon Friday, March 23 at 12 pm in the Friedman Student Union Ballroom. Tickets are $20, which includes the lunch.
“We’ll continue to roll out the purple carpet treatment for our six inductees and guests this year, so we hope that you will be able to join in as we celebrate those six individuals receiving NSU’s highest honor,” said Van Erikson, Associate Director of Alumni Affairs.
