Louisiana State University (Baton Rouge, La.). Centennial Committee.

The Louisiana State University Centennial Committee was formed in June 1969 to choose a theme and coordinate events for the centennial of the University's move from Pineville to Baton Rouge in 1869. The centennial celebrations began at Homecoming, held on October 23, 1969, and included a review of cadet uniforms from 1860 to the present, a student film festival, and a horse-and-buggy parade. They culminated with the Centennial Dinner held in the Union's Cotillion Ball Room on March 16, 1970, featuring speaker Barnaby Keeney, chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
