Students for Stripes

“STRIPES showed me what being a part of LSU is really about! I applied to be on the 2019 STRIPES staff not really knowing what I was getting into. I came out of it with new friends that I can call my family and a true understanding of what the word diversity means. People from different backgrounds and cultures became best friends. Being a part of this truly changed me for the better!” - Sam Rhodes

“When moving to Baton Rouge from Southern Illinois in the fall of 2016, I knew no one on this campus. However, after those four days it was clear that I had found my new home.
My experience as a participant was something I will truly never forget. I credit everything I have at LSU to this program. The many friendships that I still maintain to this day, and the confidence gained to be able to make it at a school 602 miles from home are only two of the many wonderful experiences this program has afforded me.
I was also fortunate enough to give back to the program, serving on staff during STRIPES17 and STRIPES19. Being on staff, you can see just how much this program means to the incoming students. This program truly changes lives, mine included, and has made me the Tiger I am today.
So to those in charge, please, hear our stories. Listen to our testimonies. Simply stated, this program works, and is one of the keys to success for so many future Tigers to come. I may be graduating in a couple weeks, but I can't watch STRIPES leave with me. So please, do the right thing and !” - Dominic Nation
