10 LSU Buildings That ACTUALLY Need To Be Fixed, Unlike The Bell Tower
Anna Polo

As of the fall semester, the bell tower got covered by a black tarp, and the mystery of what was going on questioned a lot of people. After a couple of weeks, our questions were finally answered and LSU is making the tower into a war memorial museum to honor our past as an ROTC school. With this being said it is a nice addition however there are buildings and landmarks that definitely need more fixing up than adding a museum. Sixty-eight percent of LSU's buildings are more than 25 years old, which is higher than other universities.

Here is a list of 10 places on campus that need to be fixed.

1. Lockett Hall

A place that many people dread going to, because of the cave-like basement with no windows, and the overall old feeling of the building.

2. Allen Hall

YouTube

Even though the character of the building is very cute. The first floor girls bathroom some stalls don't even have doors.

3. Middleton Library

YouTube

If you go to LSU you would understand that Middleton is like walking into a time machine, the whole building needs to be torn down and rebuilt again but that's just thousand's of students opinion.

4. Herget Hall

Herget hall is one of the most run-down dorms that LSU has, with its bathtubs full of rust anyone that has to live their needs to receive an award for lasting two whole semesters.

5. Parking Lots 

LSU parking it HORRIBLE, and there needs to be more parking spaces for a growing attendance

6. Kirby Hall

YouTube

Kirby is also tied with Hergy in the worst dorm to live in with grates on the windows the building is also very old and needs to be torn down and rebuit into new dorms.

7. Howe-Russel Hall

YouTube

The basement of Howe-Russel floods all the time and makes the building overall smell musky.

8. Huey P. Long Field House

YouTube

Most of the building is actually unusable, and with the Kinesiology school growing, renovating the inside would not be a bad idea.

9. Studio Arts Building

YouTube

The entire building itself is crumbling slowly.

10. Coates Hall

YouTube

Outdated bathrooms, broken heat, and air this building could use a face-lift.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
