LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY
BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA
OCTOBER 18-20, 2012
LSU has a particular commitment to the principles of multi-culturalism. First, it is located in the heart of a state which is one of the most racially and religiously diverse states in the U.S. Second, the city of New Orleans is unique in the influence of African- American cultural creativity and its wide variety of entertainment venues. Third, the Acadiana region is arguably the best example of an American cultural space; in the words of Delhomme, "magical."
As a university, LSU has been sensitive to the cultural dimensions of American life. The study of International Relations, which is found in various departments, recognizes the importance of a global understanding. LSU extends a warm welcome to the cultural researchers gathered at STPA.
