cool pics, thanks for sharing. Although some of those are computer drawings so not the full effect
I've been to football games on many different campuses, but you dont' really walk aroudn the whole campus..you usually just find a spot and get drunk there. So although I've been to LSU a few times, I've actually seen very little of the campus. From the OP it looks nicer than I thought.
eta: what's the indian mounds? I've seen them mentioned on the OT before and see the pics in the OP. What is the story there?

They're thought to be 5,000~ years old and were used for ceremonial and marking point purposes.
IIRC, archeologists believe they were initially built on the Mississippi riverbank

Well, those would have to be, since they're not built yet.

quote:
The LSU Campus Mounds or LSU Indian Mounds are two Native American mounds, of the Archaic Period, on the campus of Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. They are part of a larger, statewide system of mounds. They were probably used for "ceremonial and marking point purposes," rather than for burial purposes. The 20 feet (6.1 m) tall mounds are thought to be more than 5,000 years old. That date would make them part of the oldest mound system in North America, Mesoamerica or South America and also means they predate the building of the Great Pyramids of Egypt

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A part of a complex of eight mounds throughout Louisiana that date back more than 5,000 years to the Meso-Indian or Archaic period
