A Year Like No Other COVID on campus

Customer is allowed to have objects outside of the margin.

In March 2020, students, faculty and staff were in for a shock as the university shut down and moved to remote operations due to the rise of the coronavirus pandemic, or COVID-19.

The fall semester saw a large number of online and virtual/asynchronous classes. Many in-person classes had to be moved into larger rooms or split into smaller groups that only attended class on a specific schedule to comply with capacity restrictions.

Student organizations could not meet in person for the first few months, and other locations such as the library and the Student Union adjusted their seating to allow for a limited number of visitors at a time.

Even though the campus was closed through the rest of the Spring 2020 semester, new safety regulations were established so that the campus could re-open with limited capacity for the 2020-2021 academic year.

While these changes did have an impact on the student experience, the faculty and administration faced their own share of difficulties during the reopening of campus.

Dr. Tena Golding, provost and vice president for academic affairs, explained the challenges that the university administration faced while preparing for the 2020-2021 academic year.

“The biggest challenge was preparing for the unknown,” Golding said. “In the academic area, that meant creating a balance of course offerings and delivery formats to accommodate the needs for face-to-face and remote learning – knowing those needs could change at any time. Our goal was to offset unpredictability with flexibility, while maintaining safety guidelines, quality of instruction, an appropriate level of student engagement and the academic rigor of the course. We then had to provide the technology, training and support needed to make it happen.”

Celebrating Homecoming from home

Customer is allowed to have objects outside of the margin.

A pandemic couldn’t stop Southeastern Louisiana University from holding its annual Homecoming celebration.

The university’s Homecoming Week was formally announced on Sept. 28, 2020 and was advertised as “Homecoming @ Home.”

The 2020 theme, “Where’s Roomie?” assigned student organizations with themes that were derived from spy and detective media, such as “Inspector Gadget,” “Austin Powers” and “Kim Possible.” However, this year was especially different in that student organizations were only given two weeks to prepare for on-campus events.

Instead of primarily in-person events, this year’s Homecoming saw a combination of both in-person and virtual events in order to keep students and faculty safe. Additionally, many activities were adapted to conform with COVID-19 regulations. For instance, instead of having a traditional Homecoming Parade, participants drove by in their vehicles while students tossed goodies to them from their parade tents.

Kaysha Joseph, a senior management major and executive assistant to the president of the Student Government Association, felt that even though the week was hectic, Homecoming provided student leaders with the opportunity to work together to become more flexible.

“Working throughout Homecoming was busy but fun. Student leaders love doing things like this. It helped us become more adaptable. I hope we can go back to normal and have more people involved to show even more school spirit,” Joseph said.

Although only ten student organizations actively participated in the on-campus events, they rose above the added challenges that this year’s Homecoming brought. Alpha Omicron Pi and Sigma Tau Gamma won the sheet sign contest with a “Phineas and Ferb” themed design. Meanwhile, the Baptist Collegiate Ministry held onto their title as lip-sync champions from the previous year with a “Sherlock Holmes” themed performance.

Supplementing Southeastern’s COVID-19 policies, the university did not have an in-person football game during Homecoming Week.

As compensation, the Southeastern Channel replayed the Lions’ 2013 home playoff win over Sam Houston State University on Oct. 24.

Green, Gold and Gumbo Gumbo Ya Ya puts a new spin on an old tradition Social distancing, masks, and pre-packaged food are not a part of the traditional Gumbo Ya Ya celebrations, but they were a small price to pay in order to keep the Lion Pride flowing during Homecoming 2020.

“Being able to come by, see all the decorations, get together with the king and also just watching all the student organizations work together,” Magee mentioned. “I know that, with COVID, we haven’t been able to do that much, but being able to do this gives everyone that Homecoming experience.”

Richardson mentioned that she was happy to see people come out and celebrate Homecoming despite the major differences in this year’s events.

A New Reign

Lily Gayle, Miss Southeastern Louisiana University 2021, is crowned by Janine Hatcher, Miss Southeastern Louisiana University 2020. Gayle is the 60th woman to earn the title.

Symiah Dorsey

From pandemic to pageants: Lily Gayle's journey to Miss Southeastern Despite the ongoing pandemic, the university held on to a 60year-old tradition with the Miss Southeastern Pageant.

Customer is allowed to have objects outside of the margin.

The Miss Southeastern pageant had to be adapted to conform to COVID-19 regulations. The 15 pageant contestants were allowed to invite only one guest to attend the show in-person, and the show was livestreamed so audiences could safely view from their homes. In addition, the entire talent portion was prerecorded and replayed during the livestream.

Originally very shy and introverted when she first came to the university in the fall of 2017, Gayle became more comfortable and involved on campus. As a communication major, she works as both a reporter and producer for the Southeastern Channel, and her dream is to become the first female play-by-play commentator in NFL history. She also won the Extra Mile award as a 2018 orientation leader and served as the Student Government Association’s director of campus outreach.

“I think the pageant went really smooth, especially in the era of COVID and us having to record to minimize the people in attendance. We could only have 75 people in attendance. We feel really proud about the pageant and how it turned out, and I think all of the contestants also enjoyed themselves on this journey," said Marjorie Parker, director of student engagement.

Gayle recalled the feeling of hearing her name announced during the final moments of the pageant.

“When I heard my name called, I think I went into heaven a little bit. To be Miss Southeastern, the 60th one, it just means so much and that I have some big shoes to fill because we have 60 years of a legacy here, and I want to make sure that I fill those shoes correctly," said Gayle.

Miss Southeastern 2020 Janine Hatcher was unable to compete in the Miss Louisiana Pageant in 2020 due to COVID-19. However, she and Gayle both competed for Miss Louisiana 2021 - Hatcher as Miss Southeastern 2020 and Gayle as Miss Green and Gold.

Gayle made it to the Top Ten during the final night of the pageant.

“You learn so much about yourself. I learned that I was braver than I expected and I was capable of making the judges see me for who I am,” Gayle added.

This marked the first time in two years since Strawberry Jubilee had met in person.

Campus Activities Board Making adjustments for events on campus After a year filled with hybrid events, the Campus Activities Board reflected on the ups and downs of planning during an unconventional time.

From Gumbo Ya Ya to Strawberry Jubilee to the Miss Southeastern pageant, the student-led board had to think outside the box and outside of comfort zones to make the most out of the 2020-2021 school year.

CAB President Kaylee Canady said, “Coming from a school that hosts a lot of in-person events, it was really hard getting into the swing of hosting virtual events.

Attendance was very hard to keep up with because people want to be in person.”

“No matter how many people came, I would say it’s successful because we made the event a good time for these students. Positive feedback — that means we did our job for these students, so as long as they have fun it's successful to me,” she said.

She said, “We’ve had to adjust to a lot of different things, had to come together really to make things happen, and even though it doesn’t look like how it did years in the past from what I’ve been told, it’s been a very rewarding thing because we’ve been able to meet people, bring people campus life when campus isn’t looking anything like normal.”

Torres, who described herself as naturally outgoing, said she joined CAB to meet more people on campus.

Torres said, “I’ve definitely met people that I know I can go to if I have a question or a problem or anything and that they’re going to be there and work through it with me, so I’m very thankful for CAB.” TRIM LINE TRIM LINE

Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, many of these Greek organizations could not be as active on campus as they have been in previous years.

However, that did not prevent these students from staying connected and showing their Lion Pride through community service and campus involvement.

Hurricanes & Helping Hands 2020's record-breaking hurricane season For a few months in 2020, the hurricane season seemed to steal the spotlight from the ongoing pandemic.

Customer is allowed to have objects outside of the margin.

The 2020 Hurricane Season set multiple records after seeing more than twice the average number of storms in just a few months. The university also closed twice in anticipation of the incoming weather.

This year, there were 30 named storms, 5 storms that made landfall in Louisiana and 10 storms that formed in the month of September alone.

This was also the second time that Greek names were used to name storms, with three Greek names being used for the first time.

Hurricane Laura also became the strongest storm to hit Louisiana since the 1856 Last Island Hurricane. Both storms sustained 150 m.p.h. winds when they hit land.

Several students were affected by the storm in other ways, including sophomore communication major Sydney Ardoin. A Lake Charles native, Ardoin’s home was damaged after Hurricane Laura swept through Lake Charles. The sisters of the Alpha Psi chapter of Phi Mu were able to raise over $4,000 to help Ardoin and her family with the damages.

“I literally cried,” said Ardoin. “I was so surprised. I thought I was just going to eat lunch with my friends and stay with them for a little while. It was very exciting, and I was really thankful for them. So, I definitely cried when I found out.”

Southeastern also aided McNeese State University students as part of the Cowboy Relief Effort by the University of Louisiana System. MSU students could use the online services provided by Sims Library, take advantage of parking on campus at no cost, and utilize the fitness services in the Pennington Center. Also, Southeastern students were given the opportunity to donate nonperishable items from Sept. 30 to Oct. 5 to help people displaced by Hurricane Laura.

“I think it’s amazing that Southeastern is doing what they can to help students at McNeese,” shared Anaclaire McKneely, a sophomore communication major. “I am proud that our school has taken the initiative to help those who are suffering from the storm. I would hope another university would help out Southeastern students if a crisis ever arose. We really all should do whatever we can to help our community, and that includes the entire state, not just our hometowns.”

The university announces that classes will be canceled from Aug. 24-28 in anticipation of Hurricanes Laura and Marco.

Hurricane Marco hit Louisiana and weakened into a Tropical Storm.

Hurricane Laura makes landfall in Louisiana as a Category 4 Hurricane.

In anticipation of Hurricane Sally, the university announced a transition to remote operations for Monday, Sept.

14 and a closure on Tuesday, Sept. 15. Sally eventually made landfall in Alabama.

After Hurricane Laura hit Lake Charles, the "Lion Up for McNeese" drive begins accepting donations for McNeese State University.

Hurricane Delta hits Louisiana as a Category 2 Hurricane.

Hurricane Zeta makes landfall in Louisiana as a Category 2 Hurricane. Zeta was the first hurricane in over 50 years whose eye passed over the city of New Orleans.

As COVID restrictions were slowly lifted, all sports at the university were finally allowed to resume play, but this came with a catch. To comply with COVID restrictions, teams that usually play in the fall were pushed into the spring. Sports like football, soccer, cross country, golf, tennis and volleyball began in spring of 2021, rather than in the fall.

This pushback helped some sports at the university. This season, the Lady Lions soccer team entered into the NCAA tournament with an 11-game undefeated streak. It was not only the longest streak in the program's history, but it marked the team's first appearance in the tournament since 2015..

Midfielder Mia Milton attributed some of their success to the season's late start, since the team was able to build chemistry before it began.

Customer is allowed to have objects outside of the margin.

Milton said, “During the fall, we still practiced every week and scrimmaged every Friday morning, so we spent lots of time together.

We especially got to practice with the incoming freshmen and practice a whole semester before we got to play any games. I definitely think that helped because we got to get to know the team, build our team chemistry, figure out what works and what doesn’t before actually having to compete against other people.”

Milton also described what the soccer season would look like under normal circumstances.

TRIM LINE TRIM LINE

Another sport affected by the push into spring was golf. Rather than beginning in September, the golf team started practicing in February.

Senior Logan Kuehn noted that this change cut the team’s prep time short.

“Spring is when we have our conference championship, so the fall is always good for us to prepare,” Kuehn said. “This spring, you just kind of jumped in there and had to be ready to go, and we didn’t have time to really figure out what was wrong and work on it in tournament.”

Kuehn described what the team did in the fall to prepare for their season.

“We’d play each other for matches, we’d have mini tournaments, we’d have other days where we would mock and play like nine of us against one another. Every week we would have little tournaments to keep it competitive so we were ready for the spring,” Kuehn said.

Despite an unusual season, Kuehn enjoyed getting back to the golf course.

“It was nice to be back honestly -- it felt normal again,” Kuehn said.

“It’s been difficult and kind of weird for everybody, so you try to take that and do what you can.”

Despite high hopes after the lockdown, the Southeastern Lions men’s basketball team could not rise above the previous year’s record of 8-23.

The season opened on November 25 at Purdue Fort Wayne. This started a streak of games away from the campus, and the run saw the Lions gain seven losses, two wins, and two cancellations. It was not until January 6 that the Lions finally got the opportunity to perform at home. Yet, this first game at home saw the Lions lose against Sam Houston State University 52-70.

“Obviously not the way we wanted to finish the season,” said head coach David Kiefer in the conference press release. “I thought we got caught ball watching a little bit on both ends and we couldn’t overcome it. But I really enjoyed every second of coaching this team. It just didn’t end the way we would have hoped.”

While most of the university’s sports did not see any action until the spring, the Lady Lions women’s basketball team kicked off their 2020-2021 season in November. Led by fourth-year Head Coach Ayla Guzzardo, the team secured an overall 11-8 record (10-5 Southland), the first winning record since the 2008-2009 season.

Bouncing Back Lady Lions basketball rebounds after previous season

Although the team did secure a spot in the Southland Conference Tournament last year, the tournament was canceled due to COVID-19. The year that would have brought the Lady Lions to the Southland Conference Tournament for the first time since the 2011-2012 season came to a halt as schools and organizations had to take precautions due to the pandemic. This year, the Lady Lions made it to Katy, Texas, but fell to Sam Houston in their first game.

A 75-48 win over the UNO on March 6 also earned the Lady Lions the university’s highest-ever seed in the Southland Conference Tournament. The No. 2 seeded team earned a bye to the Southland Conference semifinals. In the same game, the Lady Lions tied a record by keeping their fifth consecutive opponent under 50 points, a feat that has not been seen since the debut season in 1974-1975.

Cross country sets the pace at Southland Conference Championship

This season marked not only the first time that the university hosted the Southland Conference Championships but also the first ever conference championship on record.

After having the Southeastern Conference preview on January 25 canceled due to poor weather conditions, the cross-country team started their season in Tallahassee, FL, at the FSU Winter Classic. At this meet, seniors Shea Foster, Grant O’Callaghan, Adam Cortez, and Anthony Cordero finished in the Top 10. Foster finished seventh in the 8k Garnet race and clocked in at 23:40.6, setting a new university record.

Perhaps the most notable achievement of the championship was when Foster set an all-time record for the entire Southland Conference. Despite having sustained a severe knee injury the previous year, he clocked in with a time of 22:41:16 in the men’s 8k race. This time beat the previous record of 23:39 set by Lamar University’s Sam Stabler in 2014.

“It was awesome. For it to be at our home course in front of everyone who has been along this journey with the team, and my mom and my sister came to watch, along with a lot of people who have just seen all of us grow as runners and as people, it was really cool just having that moment with everyone I care about,” Foster said.

Senior distance runner Lindsey Hutcheson competes in the Southland Conference Championship. The race was held on Southeastern's campus and the athletes ran around the block between Ned McGehee Drive and University Avenue. Maggie Tregre

Foster’s performance also earned him the title of National Athlete of the Week from the U.S. Track & Field and CrossCountry Coaches Association. He was also crowned the 2020 Southland Cross Country Male Athlete of the Year and was selected to participate in the NCAA Division I CrossCountry Championships on March 15, where he placed Feb. 5 FSU Winter Classic 45th place overall.

Even with the changes in the season’s format, the Southeastern Lions football team charged ahead.

This season saw the Lions playing in the spring semester for the first time in recorded history, and it saw them play an abbreviated season comprised of seven games instead of the traditional 10-11. This also saw a control in the amount of students allowed in the stadium. Instead of simply scanning student IDs to let students in, they would have to go to the press box beforehand and reserve tickets. Once they had entered the stands, they would not be allowed to reenter if they left. All of this was implemented to help slow the spread of COVID-19.

Nearly matching their 7-12 record in 2019, the team finished with an overall 7-15 in 2021. They started off with a 6-1 victory at Alcorn State, but they faced a 0-7 defeat at Mississippi State the next day.

The Lions experienced a mix of cancellations and postponements and eventually faced a sevenmatch losing streak against rivals like Texas A&MCorpus Christi, Central Arkansas and Northwestern State. The team eventually broke the streak with a pair of back-to-back victories, going 4-0 against Southern University A&M and 5-2 against Nicholls State University. The Lions then fell 1-6 to the University of New Orleans at home.

Although the team was unable to pull off a winning record this season, one sophomore did receive honorable recognition. Indonesian native Putri Insani secured the most singles victories on the team and received a No. 1 singles spot as a third team selection on the 2020-21 All-Southland Conference Women’s Tennis Team. Insani obtained a 12-5 record this season and had a ninematch winning streak.

Hope for making it into the Southland Tournament was sparked when the team won against their first Southland match-up at McNeese 4-3. Shortly after, the team fell to Southern Miss 0-4 but won against Jackson State 4-1. The Lions then competed with Stephen F. Austin for one of the last spots in the Southland Conference tournament but accepted a 0-7 defeat.

While in the midst of shifting circumstances, the Southeastern Louisiana track and field team’s perseverance gave them a historic and successful season.

The season opened with a successful indoor meet at the LSU Purple Tiger Invitational. At the invitational, Lady Lions Kristian Jackson and Indya Jackson were runner-ups in the shot put. Additionally, Madelyn McCabe ran in the 60m hurdles and achieved her personal best. Lions Slavko Stevic and Tommy Nedow were the winners of the high jump and shot put.

Along with his many other accolades, he was also named as the Most Valuable Performer in the Southland Conference.

Nedow also won the men’s shot put at the conference. The Lions concluded the conference as the runner ups.

Beginning outdoor track and field in March, the team claimed seven titles as they competed at the South Alabama Invitational. Thomas Daigle and Parker McBride ranked within the top 10 nationally, as they placed first and second in the men’s 800m.

The Lady Lions had an inconsistent start to their season but finished with their best record in 19 years. White described why he believed the team had this memorable season.

“It was simple— players bought into our system early.

They understood that the team needed to be built around defense. The girls understood what needed to be done and trusted the coaching staff,” White said.

Claiming their first gold medal at the 2021 UCA and UDA College and Dance Team National Championship, the safety precautions taken did not stifle their hard work. During the competition, the team took home a first place gold medal with their performance at the Open Coed Game Day Cheer competition. The team scored 95.5 for their performance. The team also placed second in the Small Coed Division I competition.

The competitions were much different than in prior years. Because they were held virtually, the teams were able to take off their masks and have contact with each other to perform stunts.

Prior to the national championship, the team resumed their duties of bringing the spirit to the university.

As safety precautions at Southeastern began to relax, the team was given much more freedom during their performances at sporting events on campus. They were able to perform their stunts and make contact with each other but were required to wear masks while performing.

This season, the team had the opportunity to perform at Strawberry Stadium, the University Center, as well as football, basketball and several other sporting events.

Carrying the Banner Color Guard raises the flag for school spirit

Customer is allowed to have objects outside of the margin.

Instead of practicing alongside the Spirit of the Southland Marching Band, as had been in previous years, the Southeastern Color Guard would practice inside the Pennington Center and Pottle band hall. They were required to wear masks at all times and remain six feet apart from each other.

Despite their practices, however, the team was not able to perform at the same events that they normally performed. In a normal year, they would have performed at Hot August Nights, Strawberry Jam and the Strawberry Festival, among other events. However, due to COVID restrictions, all these events and more were canceled or modified to keep people safe. This meant the team could not perform like normal.

Yet, the team was able to perform for home football games in Strawberry Stadium. This year, the color guard had to remain spaced out during their performances at the home football games. Like the marching band drum line, they stood socially distanced from each other while seated in the stands.

Spirit of the Southland Marching Band keeps its spirits up

Although the Spirit of the Southland Marching Band spends most of its time outdoors, it was still heavily affected this year and saw a very unconventional season.

Much like the other ensemble bands in the music program, the marching band had to follow COVID-19 guidelines in order to meet. Although they could practice inside their band room, they needed to remain at least six feet away from each other.

This rule was extended to their outdoor practices as well.

Led by drum majors Brian Williams, a senior communications major, and Josh Hebert, a junior music education major, the marching band’s only true performance was during the Homecoming parade on October 24, 2020. The members were placed by W. University Ave. as they played music for the people leaving the parade route. Even though they were outdoors, they had to remain socially distanced from each other.

The marching band also has a pep band, a group of musicians that would normally play during the women’s and men’s basketball games. However, the members were not allowed to play like they regularly would and were confined to the stadium seats.

"We are looking forward to hopefully next marching season if again, everything turns back to normal for the fall, marching season where marching is actually allowed on the field during games," said Dr. Jeffrey Wright, head of the Department of Music and Performing Arts.

Pomp and Circumstance Fall and spring commencement ceremonies held in new locations For any graduate, it’s a big deal to be able to walk across the stage and receive the diploma that they’ve worked so hard to earn. Nothing can stand in the way of a graduating student and their degree - not even a pandemic or a thunderstorm.

The Fall 2020 commencement ceremony was split into four separate events over two days. To further ensure that students and guests kept a safe distance apart, the ceremonies were also held outdoors in Strawberry Stadium.

In addition to the Fall 2020 graduates, the ceremonies also served as the commencement for Spring and Summer 2020 graduates that did not get to celebrate their achievements earlier that year due to the ongoing pandemic.

For the Spring 2021 ceremonies, the original plan was to have four separate outdoor ceremonies similar to Fall 2020.

However, inclement weather prevented commencement from taking place outdoors in Strawberry Stadium. In addition, the University Center was being renovated, so each of the four ceremonies were broken down into smaller groups and separate commencements were held in various locations across campus.

These locations included the Student Union Ballroom, the Student Union Theatre, Pottle Auditorium, the Vonnie Borden Theatre and the KIVA Auditorium inside of the Cate Teacher Education building.

When I first joined the yearbook staff in February 2020, I had no idea that a month later we would all be forced to work from our computers.

Needless to say, my first few months on the job were a bit unorthodox. I didn’t have the same type of experience that I would have had if I had started earlier on. I was isolated and had to work independently.

During the fall semester, when Victoria stepped down as the editor for the yearbook, I became the only active employee. Sure, we had a couple of new hires, but I remained the only consistent employee. I realized that I would have to learn a lot of things very quickly. It was a little bit nervewracking, seeing as I was trying to get as many pictures for the yearbook all by myself. However, I continued to push through with whatever I knew to do, and by the time the semester had ended, I had accomplished a lot.

Thankfully, when the spring semester started, I had a lot of help from the workers at The Lions Roar. Without their help, we would not have a lot of the pictures that we have used in this yearbook, so I am grateful for that.

I also have to brag on my co-editor, Maggie, who has been a tremendous help. She has helped think of things that I would not have thought of otherwise, especially considering I have not had any yearbook training prior to this.

This year has been unlike anything else before, and I believe that this yearbook is a faithful representation and record of what this crazy year was like. I hope that you are very pleased with the end result.

I joined the Office of Student Publications two years ago in the fall of 2019.

I was hired on as a staff reporter for The Lion’s Roar Newspaper, where I stayed for three semesters. I eventually switched over to the Le Souvenir staff in December of 2020, where I helped to finish up the 2020 yearbook before we were able to start the 2021 edition.

Although we didn’t have as much time as I would have liked to work on this project, I’m still very proud of what we were able to accomplish this year, especially given the unusual circumstance of having to work through a pandemic. If it weren’t for the continued support, enthusiasm, and dedication of both the Le Souvenir and The Lion’s Roar staff, completing this yearbook would not have been possible.

I would like to thank Nick and Elana for all of their help with this project. I feel honored and humbled to have had an opportunity to work with both of them, especially considering that this whole book came together in a little over a semester. Nick, I couldn’t have asked for a better co-editor.

Whether it’s bouncing ideas off of each other in the office or volunteering to go take photos of a group at the last minute, you were always right there when I needed you. Elana, you brought such a unique perspective to this project, and I can’t even begin to express how much I appreciate what you’ve done.

I’d also like to thank everyone at The Lion’s Roar, not only for their help with the book’s content, but also for the friendships I’ve formed over the past two years. From the Christmas parties to switching offices to working remotely, I’ve never worked with such an amazing and talented group of people.

Maggie Tregre You have given me two years worth of wonderful memories, so I present Co-Editor, Le Souvenir 2021 you with one more memory: the 2021 edition of Le Souvenir.
