In the spirit of this year’s homecoming, Shulze Cafeteria hosted A Fall Carnival Day.
The cafeteria was filled with numerous treats and activities for the students of ULM to enjoy.
Students had a chance to compete in friendly games such as ring toss and sumo wrestling. Freshman Psychology major and
Monroe native Larrese Rollins enjoyed going head to head in the wrestling match.
“It was a childhood dream of mine, and it’s nice that I get to fulfill my childhood dreams in college,” Rollins said.
Along with the exciting activities of ring toss and sumo wrestling came the Halloween Costume Contest.
Students came dressed up in their favorite costumes. The contestants were judged by the ULM students and faculty dinning.
The winner of the contest was Robert Kelly, a senior history major from Columbia, who decided to dress up as Benjamin Franklin.
“I love history and when I saw the sign [on Shultz door] I figured this would be something fun to do before I graduate,” said Kelly.
The students who were dining were asked to vote for their favorite pumpkins.
The winners of the contest were freshmen Pre-Pharmacy majors Jameshia Below from Natchitoches and Chelsea Guillory from Opelousas, whose pumpkins impressed and gained the vote of almost all the students.
“We initially decided to just do a ballerina, but since we both got one we decided to get creative and do the princess and the frog,” said Guillory.
