Originally scheduled for early October, the celebration was moved to Nov. 7-12 to accommodate students, alumni, faculty and staff impacted by the storms.        To requests diplomas or transcripts or submit new contact information, alumni may email slualumni@selu.edu or call 1-800-SLU-ALUM. Contact information may also be mailed to the Alumni Association, 500 W. University Ave., Hammond, LA, 70401. An address/information update form is also available online at www.selu.edu/alumni (under the “Membership” link).        Alumni are reminded that Southeastern’s Homecoming football game is set for Nov. 12 against Nicholls State University, with a 6 p.m. kickoff in Strawberry Stadium.
