September 2, 2010 — Show Your Colors!

Dear Faculty and Staff,

You may have seen the posters and received previous messages, but I’m emailing you today to remind you to Wear Red tomorrow, September 3.

National College Colors Day is Friday, September 3.  Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to celebrate our university and the positive impact its had on the community by wearing red.   Wear Red Day, our fifth annual, is held in conjunction with National College Colors Day.  I encourage you to join me this Friday and every Friday to show your support and passion for our university by Wearing Red.

To recognize different campus groups wearing red, the university is sponsoring a photo competition. All campus offices and groups are invited to participate. To enter the competition, submit a high-resolution, digital photograph of your group wearing red on September 3.

Submissions can be posted to www.facebook.com/RaginCajunsWearRed or emailed to WearRed@louisiana.edu. The deadline for entries is Friday, September.10.

One group will be recognized as 2010 Wear Red Campus Champions with an on-field presentation during a home football game.  Photos of all participating teams will be posted to the university’s Wear Red Facebook page— www.facebook.com/RaginCajunsWearRed.

If you have any questions, please call Matt Tarver in Communications and Marketing at (337) 482-6574 or e-mail WearRed@louisiana.edu.

Join me in showing our Ragin’ Cajun spirit … WEAR RED!

Sincerely,

E. Joseph Savoie
