Louisiana Tech University

    As a graduate of Louisiana Tech University I am very proud of my alma mater.  Tech not only has outstanding academic programs, there are also nationally ranked sports programs, such as the Lady Techsters basketball team and the powerlifting team.

    Most students arrive at Tech planning on becoming an engineer. Half of those future engineers become business majors (for example, moi)! Along with
engineering and business there is also aviation, forestry, physics, biology, history, speech, mathematics, education, pre-med and a host of other majors.
    Tech is nestled in the rolling, pine-crested hills of north Louisiana. Ruston, Louisiana is not only the home of Tech,  it is also the home of some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world.  And I must admit that I often had the best spot to view these sunsets when I was working in the back drive through window at McDonald's on Trenton Street.
    Tech's campus is kept beautiful year-round. Roses bloom almost all year in the quad, and other flowers are kept in the gardens around campus. Pines and oaks keep the students shaded while gathering around campus for the occasional crawfish boils, outdoor class meetings, and other events that are often held outdoors; along with the usual student recreational gatherings.
    Ruston is very supportive of Tech, with many of the residents affiliated with the school in some manner. Professors are often members of community groups and campus organizations. The professors often go beyond the call of duty by offering after-hours tutoring, parties, and out-of-the-classroom socialization with students, making the learning process easier and more comfortable.
    I would recommend Tech to anyone looking for a good university to attend.  It offers a good environment for learning and meeting new people.
