There will be numerous demonstrations sponsored by departments and organizations on and off campus, hopefully giving our local kids broad exposure to the world of STEM. 

This year IDEAS Day will be held at LSU Shreveport on February 25, 2023, from 9 am-3:30 pm. We will need volunteers for set-up, check-in, working the booths, traffic flow, and clean-up.
