| COMMUNITY MEETING SCHEDULED TO DISCUSS ISSUES ON RETURN OF
SOUTHEASTERN
FOOTBALL
HAMMOND – Southeastern Louisiana University will hold a community meeting at 6 p.m. Monday (March 24) to discuss issues related to the return of Lions’ football for the upcoming 2003 season and the upcoming spring scrimmage. The meeting will be held in the Alumni Center, 500 W. University Avenue. Residents near the university and the general public are invited to the meeting where members of the Southeastern administration and Athletic Department will entertain comments from area residents and outline the university’s parking plans, anticipated traffic flow and opportunities for tailgating parties on the campus. The spring game, in which the offense will scrimmage against the defense, is scheduled for 7 p.m. Thursday, April 10, in Strawberry Stadium. Student parking in the stadium area will be restricted beginning that afternoon. “While we are all excited about football returning to the Southeastern campus, we recognize that it also brings with it some challenges, specifically in the area of traffic and parking,” said university President Randy Moffett. “We want to minimize any inconvenience for our neighbors and share with them our plans and expectations.” To RSVP or for more information, contact the Athletic Department at 549-2253. |
