MARISA SANDOVAL Legal Policy Advisor National Campaigns Coordinator 2 America’s Largest Most Trusted Conservation Organization Supports The Bayou Classic When it became apparent that Covid-19 would interrupt Bayou Classic 2020 and thwart the annual football battle on the field, I refused to accept skipping a year of investment and helping students, it didn’t sit well in my spirit. The National Wildlife Federation had built and fostered trusted, functioning, and working relationships with both campuses over the years and more recently, with the Southern University Agriculture Research and Extension Center. Somehow and in some way, that was not going to be interrupted. After employing a level of creativity and thoughtfulness, Bayou Classic 2020-21: A Battle of the Sciences was born.

With great intentionality, we centered the science, research, faculty, and student scholar capabilities of both campuses while highlighting a rich, regarded, and historic rivalry turned research collaboration. Research scholars applied their lived experience and scientific knowledge to highlight connections between climate change, environmental-related impacts, and the need to protect the Mississippi River.
