Louisiana Colleges (continued from top)

In some ways, Louisiana is a great college and university destination, but in most people minds, this is during Spring Break for New Orleans' famed Mardi Gras celebration.

Louisiana Universities
In fact, Louisiana has a great college and university tradition. Like all the southern states, Louisiana has great public state universities, with thousands of students and dozens of standalone academic departments. Also like other southern states, Louisiana has several historically black institutions and schools steeped in tradition.

But Louisiana is also known for its smaller colleges, some of them considered elite national universities. These colleges attract students from all over the world.

Louisiana Colleges
Louisiana, and its cities of New Orleans and Baton Rouge in particular, has good community college systems that educate in specific fields or prepare you to enter four-year institutions.

Louisiana Economy
Louisiana is a leader in natural gas, salt, petroleum, and sulfur production. Much of the oil and sulfur comes from offshore deposits. The state also produces large crops of sweet potatoes, rice, sugar cane, pecans, soybeans, corn, and cotton. Leading manufactured items include chemicals, processed food, petroleum and coal products, paper, lumber and wood products, transportation equipment, and apparel.

The state has become a popular tourist destination. New Orleans is the major draw, known particularly for its picturesque French Quarter and the annual Mardi Gras celebration, held since 1838.

Louisiana Attractions
Other major points of interest include the Superdome in New Orleans, historic plantation homes near Natchitoches and New Iberia, Cajun country in the Mississippi Delta Region, Chalmette National Historic Park, and the state capital at Baton Rouge.
