Why I Like Tulane

We asked a few Tulane students to give us their thoughts about life at Tulane and in New Orleans. They chose the location of their interview: a place either on campus or in New Orleans that was important to their every day lives.

These brief videos provide a sample of the diverse personalities that can be found at Tulane.*

When Allie Sontag visited Tulane last March, she fell in love with the campus. "Write the check," she told her father. Allie talks to us in the shade of the magnificent oak trees on campus.
