Say aloha to friends and soak in the relaxing island vibe during Spring Fever Week,
at the University of Louisiana Monroe.
Alo-Hawk Spring Fever Week 2021 includes Super Warhawk Weekend, Saturday and Sunday, April 17-18.
Alo-Hawk kicks off Monday, April 19, with lei handouts and a free lunch from 11 a.m.-1
p.m. Monday at Bayou Park; it concludes with the NPHC cookout Friday from 1-4 p.m.
in the Student Grove.
Hosted by ULM's Student Life and Leadership, this year's "Alo-Hawk" event brings a
Hawaiian theme to campus in what is historically ULM's largest gathering of week-long
activities for those ready to celebrate the end of the spring semester.
All events are free and open to ULM students, staff, and faculty.
Activities traditionally associated with Spring Fever Week also continue, including
T-shirt sales, the annual crawfish boil on Monday, and oozeball on Friday. This year's
concert, open to the community, will be held outdoors in the Grove from 12 to 6 p.m.
Thursday.
Alo-Hawk takes on added meaning as the campus looks toward a return to normal following
the cancellation of last year's event due to the pandemic.
Joel Sinclair, Coordinator of Student Activities for Student Life and Leadership,
admitted to feeling a "perfect mixture" of both excitement and pressure, given the
circumstances.
"There's more excitement because it shines a glimmer of light, like some normalcy
is approaching," he said. "But it also represents a clean slate because we have new
health guidelines to follow. It gives students a way to celebrate their hard work."
Sinclair attributed the event's fun-filled, themed activities to the "guidance, focus,
and creativity" of the students who surround him daily.
