Illustrious Alumnus

Program Overview

Louisiana State University graduates are a force to be reckoned with.  From sports to politics to arts and science, Tiger alumni have made contributions to society that impact our community, the world and even reach the depths of space. 

The Peoples Health Illustrious Alumnus program was created to recognize LSU graduates who demonstrate the value of an LSU education through a history of achievement.  An Illustrious Alumnus is honored on the field at each home LSU football game in Tiger Stadium.
