The SU Alumni Slidell Chapter hosted it's Annual Pizza, Pretzels & Perspectives!! The event is chaired by our Student Recruitment & Retention Committee and Scholarship Committee. The goal of the event is for Alums and students to mingle in a relaxed environment, to offer mentoring, to hear each other's SU Perspectives. This year we invited prospective students, high school seniors that have expressed a desire to attend SU, six high school students attended. In breakout sessions the students learned how to look for scholarships, how to apply for scholarships, what scholarship opportunities existed, information on housing, Top Jags and the Honor's College. Six of our currently enrolled SUBR/SUNO students also attended. These students offered advice and tips to the high schoolers. We were also honored to welcome our 3 newest Alums to our chapter, these students graduated weeks before and we are so proud of them. The newest Alums were available for advice and tips and they were celebrated. The evening not only included food and advice but a high spirited game of SU Jeopardy, we learned about some of the enriched history of our beloved SU. The multi-generational group consisting of an SU graduate from the Class of 1958 to the recent graduates of Dec 2025 and high school students all enjoyed a game of "What to wear where?" The goal of this game was to guide our youth on the importance of appropriate dress for various occasions. Each student left with knowledge, our currently enrolled students were given a financial token to help them along the way this semester. We pray that God continues to bless our SU students and that they have a great semester. For more information on becoming a member of this GREAT chapter please contact us at: [email protected]

The SU Alumni Slidell Chapter would like to congratulate our own, Mr. Craig Pierre on being named Mr. Kappa Man of the Year!! We are SU proud!!
