Student
Leaders network at bowl game
The ASU Student
Leaders traveled to the New Orleans Bowl in December to cheer on the
Indian football team. On this university-sponsored trip, the
students visited New Orleans, networked with ASU alumni, toured the
University of Louisiana-Lafayette campus, and were seen on ESPN
cheering on the ASU Indians. The Marching Indians also made the trip
to the bowl game, as this was the first bowl game for many band
members. Go
here to see photos. Many of these activities and photos are a
great recruiting tool to show prospective students visiting ASU.
