Say aloha to friends and soak in the relaxing island vibe during Spring Fever Week,
at the University of Louisiana Monroe.

Alo-HawkÌýSpring Fever Week 2021 includes Super Warhawk Weekend, Saturday and Sunday, April 17-18.
Ìý
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 ÃÛ½ÛÖ±²¥'s Student Life and Leadership, this year's "Alo-Hawk" event brings a
Hawaiian theme to campus in what is historically ÃÛ½ÛÖ±²¥'s largest gathering of week-long
activities for those ready to celebrate the end of the spring semester.
Ìý
All events are free and open to ÃÛ½ÛÖ±²¥ students, staff, and faculty.
Ìý
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.
Ìý
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.
Ìý
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.
Ìý
"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."
Ìý
Sinclair attributed the event's fun-filled, themed activities to the "guidance, focus,
and creativity" of the students who surround him daily.
