Wave Football: Dome Action, Homecoming at Gormley
Tulane University Wave Football: Dome Action, Homecoming at Gormley July 24, 2008 1:30 AM Carol J. Schlueter [email protected] The Louisiana Superdome, home of Tulane football and one of the nation's premier athletics venues, will become Green Wave territory once again this fall as the season kicks off on Sept. 13 against East Carolina University, but Wave fans will be anticipating one season game in a different venue outdoors and steps away from the oaks in City Park. The Green Wave will take on Army in City Park's Tad Gormley Stadium on Oct. 4 for homecoming, while fans enjoy tailgating and celebrating around the stadium before the game. (Photo by Paula Burch-Celentano) For the first time since 2004, the Tulane homecoming game on Oct. 4 will take place in the 1937- era Tad Gormley Stadium, back in service after enduring extensive flooding due to Hurricane Katrina. Tulane will play Army in the homecoming contest at 2 p.m., one of five home games this season that will have an afternoon kickoff. The return to Tad Gormley in October has long been anticipated by the Wave faithful, who have fond memories of the 2002â“2004 homecoming games and celebrations held there. Count Charlotte Travieso in that number. “For alumni and the rest of us students, parents it's a much more welcoming and collegiate atmosphere, by the oak trees, near the expanse of Roosevelt Mall,” says Travieso, director of the Tulane Office of Alumni Affairs. As comfortable as it is at the Superdome, there's just something about a being outdoors at a college football game. -

Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 © Copyright by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line by Benjamin Grant Doleac Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Cheryl L. Keyes, Chair The black brass band parade known as the second line has been a staple of New Orleans culture for nearly 150 years. Through more than a century of social, political and demographic upheaval, the second line has persisted as an institution in the city’s black community, with its swinging march beats and emphasis on collective improvisation eventually giving rise to jazz, funk, and a multitude of other popular genres both locally and around the world. More than any other local custom, the second line served as a crucible in which the participatory, syncretic character of black music in New Orleans took shape. While the beat of the second line reverberates far beyond the city limits today, the neighborhoods that provide the parade’s sustenance face grave challenges to their existence. Ten years after Hurricane Katrina tore up the economic and cultural fabric of New Orleans, these largely poor communities are plagued on one side by underfunded schools and internecine violence, and on the other by the rising tide of post-disaster gentrification and the redlining-in- disguise of neoliberal urban policy. -

Biddy Girls Basketball Tournament Westwego, Louisiana
Biddy Girls Basketball Tournament Westwego, Louisiana EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The primary purpose of the study was to determine the economic significance of the Biddy Girls Basketball Tournament that was held on March 30-April 5, 2000 at The Alario Center in Westwego. The Year 2000 Biddy Basketball Tournament was comprised of 38 basketball teams, consisting of approximately 12 girls on each team. Approximately 17 teams were local; others were from Kansas, Dallas, Houston, or some as far as Puerto Rico and Finland. Surveys were conducted at The Alario Center to identify non–local visitors who were then asked to enumerate their expenditures during this event. In addition, coaches were also surveyed regarding team expenses. Hotels in the area provided information on the hotel room nights generated by the tournament. Results show a positive economic impact for Westwego and the surrounding communities generated by visitor spending on hotel rooms, admission tickets, concessions, meals, laundry, shopping, and entertainment. RESULTS Economic Significance l Total direct visitor expenditures was $279,920. l The average hotel room rate was $67.40. l The average amount paid per day for admission tickets was $15.00. l The average amount paid per day for concessions was $15.10. l The average amount paid for meals per day (outside of The Alario Center) was $39.94. l The average amount paid for local transportation was $14.10 per day. l The average amount paid for laundry each day was $.92. l The average per day spent on entertainment/recreation was $10.72. l The average per day spent on shopping was $41.08. -
