re: What was Katrina like?

I was in br at LSU. We didn't lose power until Rita hit. Gustav was much worse as far as br was concerned. But that semester was pretty easy with a lot of students coming from uuniversities in Nola. The teachers were pretty slack on turning in late assignments and what not. All my roommates were from Nola and at one point we had 12 people and 5 dogs living at our house. That's what sucked the most. But we weren't going to turn away friends and family members.
