Louisiana Christian University will offer high school students an opportunity to experience
what college life is like as a Wildcat at its annual Fall Preview Day on Saturday, Oct. 7.
All high school students in public, private and home school are encouraged to preregister
to attend the event on campus from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Students and their parents will meet with faculty and current students and learn about
academic programs, athletics and extracurricular activities.

“We urge all future college students—regardless of what high school grade—to participate
in LCU’s Annual Fall Preview Day,” said President Dr. Rick Brewer. “Prospective students
and their families will receive information regarding academic programs and financial aid
while meeting faculty, staff, and students of the university. We have made plans for a
comprehensive day on campus including lunch and tickets to our Wildcat football home
contest that afternoon. Join us and discover the difference in the student learning
experience at Louisiana Christian University where we prepare graduates and transform
lives.”

The History and Political Science Division will be hosting a speech competition with a
scholarship prize. Students will be asked to compose a short speech answering the
following question—which of the purposes set forth by the Preamble do you believe has
been best fulfilled within American society?

Students interested in majoring or minoring in Spanish may take part in a read-aloud
scholarship competition. Students will read “Poema 20” by Pablo Neruda. Scholarships
awards of $750 for first place and $500 for second place will be applied to freshman-year
tuition.

Students should indicate their interest in participating in a specific scholarship competition
on their Preview Day registration form.
