Building a Suit for Albineaux

Greetings! I'm Cory St. Ewart, a passionate UL alumnus and multidisciplinary artist from Acadiana.

Over the past three years, I've been working on a fan made mascot character that could give just an extra jolt of energy to UL tailgates. Some can call it a proof of concept. Others can call it an unofficial grassroots mascot. And few call it just silly.

However, this is a character I truly believe in, and will continue to craft until the day he steps foot on UL's campus. I'm looking for other people to believe it in him too. Albineaux (who's name will be changed through fan submissions) was always meant for the fans and the fans only. The university does not endorse this character, but the university cannot stop the fans from creating him; and believe me, they've tried.

I continue to put aside my own money to fund this special character, but with your support, I can achieve my goal, my dream, my unrelenting quest faster.

Thank you for your consideration and continued support. Go Cajuns.
