Meet Cate Brooks - Exceptional Graduate from Lassiter High School

(From The LSU Alumni Newsletter)

LSU Atlanta and the TAF Georgia chapter hosted a very entertaining kickoff party at Buckhead Saloon on August 27.  No less than FIVE former Tigers who were teammates during the Jerry Stovall and early Bill Arnparger coaching years spent nearly an hour swapping stories and talking about LSU football.  In the process, we raised over $1,400 for Great Cats of Indiana and also auctioned off autographed photos of Miles, Chavis and Kragthrope and will donate over $200 to the Michael J. Fox Parkinson's Research Foundation. A BIG thanks to everyone who showed up, and those of you who didn't missed a GREAT show.

What an exciting class of Freshmen we have for LSU from Greater Atlanta!!

At our Sweet Send Off party held July 31st we had 35 students and 53 parents, siblings, friends and a group of 12 Atlanta LSU Alumni who experienced a great time of meeting, sharing, and seeing that LSU TIGER spirit.  A big thanks to LSU Atlanta board member Phil Adra for being Master of Ceremonies. 
 
We introduced 2 of the 3 scholarship recipients for this year:  Emerson Ashford from Harrison High School and Joe Zerkus from Whitewater High School.  The other recipient, Cate Brooks from Lassiter could not attend.  All attending students were introduced. Among those present ten announced Mass Communication as their major, and others included Finance, Accounting, Petroleum Eng, Architecture, History, and  Chemical Engineering.
