We want the LSU campus to visibly look different the week of Homecoming. We need people to decorate the gates of LSU as well as organize and promote the banner competition, the Paint the Town Purple competition for local businesses, and the campus office decorating contest.

For Paint the Town Purple, we want to get as many businesses as possible to decorate their store windows for the week of Homecoming. The Banner competition is a decoration competition between different campus organizations. There are over 350 campus organizations at LSU and we want as many involved as possible.

The volunteer timeline will give you an idea of specific marketing committee jobs.

Our meetings are at 4pm Mondays (not every week). For more information, email Amelia Burns, chair, at aburn22@gmail.com.
