Initiatives & Events

The Tailored Tiger,
LSU's On-campus Career Closet

Through the 2022-2023 school year, Student Government has been working in partnership with the LSU Olinde Career Center to develop an on-campus professional clothing closet–projected to open to students in Fall 2024. Professional attire donations are currently being accepted in the LSU Student Government Office, Pleasant Hall, Grace King Hall, and the LSU Alumni Center. 

Custodian Appreication Week

Tyhlar Holliway, a former HSS Senator in Student Government, authored the initiative to establish Custodian Appreciation Week and collaborated with a dedicated team to bring the vision to life. Her passion for this work was inspired by Ms. Ashley, a custodian who became a mother figure to her during her freshman year of high school. The week was created to honor custodians like Ms. Ashley — individuals who show up daily with unconditional love and immaculate work. Custodians were celebrated with awards and recognition for the lasting impact they make on campus and in students’ lives.

Athletic Ticket Appeal Committee

Student Government is responsible for student athletics ticket appeals. In order to streamline that effort and make it easier for students, we have established a athletic ticket appeal committee to hear student appeals in real time. The committee will meet at the beginning of each semester to consider appeals.
