4-H University is a program of the LSU AgCenter 4-H Youth Department that brings Louisiana 4-H’ers from all over the state to compete for best in the state in more than 40 events ranging from plant identification, photography and flight simulation to speechmaking and fashion design. In addition, almost 300 students take part in the noncompetitive learning event called Clover College, which includes seven hours of instruction over the three days.
During 4-H U, participants are introduced to aspects of life that college students experience on an everyday basis. Students tour a working dairy, a biomedical center and athletic facilities. Students also get to see how college students live during the week by residing in campus dormitories, eating at campus dining halls and even going through the rigors of scheduling classes.
