海角社区 Mardi Gras Mambo Video/Photos: Tigers Get into the Carnival Spirit
February 27, 2025
At 海角社区, the culture of Louisiana isn鈥檛 just celebrated鈥攊t鈥檚 lived. And there鈥檚 no
better example of that than the annual Mardi Gras Mambo, an event that brings the
excitement, tradition, and community of Carnival right to the heart of campus. Held
on Feb. 25, this year鈥檚 Mambo gave students a taste of one of Louisiana鈥檚 most beloved
traditions without having to leave Baton Rouge.
Mardi Gras Mambo is more than just a themed event; it鈥檚 an immersive celebration that
showcases what makes Louisiana鈥攁nd 海角社区鈥攕pecial. Hosted by Campus Life, this year鈥檚
festivities transformed campus into a mini-Mardi Gras, complete with a lively parade,
authentic Louisiana music, and, of course, plenty of king cake.
For many students, especially those from outside the state, the Mambo serves as an
introduction to the cultural richness that defines Louisiana. From catching beads
to dancing to the rhythms of zydeco and brass bands, the event gives everyone a chance
to experience the energy of Mardi Gras firsthand.
For students who might not have the chance to attend a major parade in New Orleans, the Mambo provides an accessible way to be part of the celebration. And for Louisiana natives, it鈥檚 a reminder that home isn鈥檛 far away, even on campus.
海角社区 offers students a college experience that鈥檚 truly unique, blending academic excellence
with the vibrant spirit of Louisiana. At 海角社区, you don鈥檛 just go to school in Louisiana鈥攜ou
become part of Louisiana. And that鈥檚 something worth celebrating.
