Knowing about where you live


We continue our cultural excursion blogging with comments from Multicultural Ambassador Terra.

Monday March 11th, several of Dr. Lora's former students from Southern University of New Orleans  met with us in the French Quarter to give us some history on the French Quarter. I was really impressed on how knowledgeable they were about the history of the French Quarter in New Orleans. The fact that the people of New Orleans value their city history makes me want to learn more about the history of the city where I'm from. I learned a lot from the SUNO students, from the history of every street, to the architectural  buildings in the "Quarter" as New Orleans residents call it. We later had dinner with a couple of the students which gave us a little more time with them before departing.
