Bill Evans, legendary jazz pianist, graduated from Southeastern Louisiana.
Can you imagine a cool NYC jazz hepcat spending 4 years at SLU? In the late '40s yet?
Ironically enough, Evans credited several music professors there as being major influences on his work, and later said his years in Hammond were the happiest of his life.
If you want to pay homage, he's buried at Roselawn in Baton Rouge:
He got a nice spot, right under the tree.
