For many people, Voodoo lineups for the past few years have not been up to par, and this year’s might have seemed to follow the same pattern at first glance. However, if festivalgoers give the lineup a second glance and click through a few Wikipedia articles, they may be surprised at who actually played the three-day Voodoo Music + Arts Experience this weekend.

While a Core Alcohol and Drug survey showed drinking and marijuana use on campus have decreased, there has been an increase of prescription and other drug use that has led to various University departments working together to create more resources for students. Multiple departments on campus are providing alternative activities for events typically associated with alcohol and drugs — like sober tailgates on game days, said Bret Blackmon, Louisiana Center Addressing Substance Use in Collegiate Communities Associate Director. To help combat the increase in drug use on campus and other issues, multiple departments on campus came together and created the Biennial Review DRUG USE, see page 11

Class teaches science behind making dairy products Olivia McClure Contributing Writer
Every Thursday afternoon, students in dairy science professor Chuck Boeneke’s class don hairnets and stir pots to make a variety of foods — and they all begin with milk. Their most recent creation: cottage cheese. Boeneke said students in his dairy foods technology class —ANSC 4020 — learn about dairy processing procedures that they apply in their lab. They cover topics such as sanitation,
pasteurizing, the role of fats and milk solids and how to make low fat versions of products. Students use both computer and long hand calculations to formulate recipes. In the lab portion of the class, students make products such as cheese, yogurt, buttermilk, sour cream and ice cream using milk from cows at the LSU AgCenter’s dairy farm. Later this semester, the students will make a 1,000-gallon batch of cheddar cheese to be sold in the LSU Dairy Store, Boeneke said. The class gives students an
opportunity to turn what they learn about in class into something tangible. Boeneke said it is a unique experience to taste foods you made, knowing exactly how it got to that stage from the microscopic level. “I don’t guess they realize how much stuff goes into making the products and whenever they really start to see, it’s like, ‘Wow, I didn’t realize there was that much stuff that was involved just in processing milk,’” Boeneke said.
