With this combination of flour and a small amount of cooking oil, the final outcome of the sauce piquante is determined. With too much oil, the dish will be greasy. If the roux is allowed to brown too fast and is not stirred often, it will burn, giv- ing the piquante a burnt, flat taste. And if the roux is not allowed to cook enough, the dish will have little flavor at all. Andjust as the roux is the basis for a good sauce piquante, the organizations, events, academics, and activities provide for a good school. Thus, the student life section is given the name Le Roux. Hopefully, it will be browned and seasoned just right to give the sauce piquante the exciting and delicious fla- vor which everyone enjoys.

LSUA certainly develops its own physique Yet. as any qualified gourmet would update his recipes. so has the campus begun to undergo changes. With a new two million dollar Nursing complex under construction and monies appropriated for renovation of the student union. LSUA begins to take on a new shape. However. it has a long way to go before it loses many of the unique scars of its adolescence.
