Tidewater Boy, sorry I don't know anything about the dorms on campus, I stayed right off campus in a duplex in a quiet neighborhood on Wilson St. I think the company that we rented thru was called Oil City Realty. Lafayette is one of those places that has never quit growing-it took a small break during the oil and gas downturn in the mid-late 1980's but caught its wind and took off again. In my opinion, the oil companies brought in a lot of professional people which I think helped introduce folks to different ideas and be a little more open-minded. The cajun culture is stronger there than in the southeast part of the state, a lot more people speak French there than around New Orleans. The festival in Gerard Park (right next to UL) was always a good time. All ages enjoyed it. Good Luck
