Attention all law students who are interested in attending the LSU Law program in Lyon: Summer 2017 is quickly approaching! We will be holding a second information session on February 2 at 12:40 pm in Room 106. The session is aimed at answering any questions you may have about the program as well as provide you with information about what to expect for what will be a great summer.

When travelers think of France and cuisine, they often think of Paris. However, Lyon’s culinary tradition has achieved more recognition than even France’s capital. The fame goes back in large part to Chef Paul Bocuse. Anthony Bourdain, an American chef and television personality, sat down with Bocuse, to discuss Lyon’s famous dishes. Also, Bourdain, on his CNN show, Parts Unknown, travelled to Lyon to experience the history and culture behind the city’s cuisine. Check out his blog post about the show where you can find some clips from the Lyon episode. The full episode, which is Season 3, Episode 3, of Parts Unknown, can be found on Netflix. Bon appétit!

Anthony Bourdain sits down with Chef Paul Bocuse to film his show Parts Unknown.

Thanks everyone who came out yesterday to the informational meeting! We will be having a second meeting early in the Spring semester. It is never too early to start planning though. If you know for sure that you would like to go, start looking at plane tickets and housing accommodations now. If you have any questions, you can email Margaret Viator at mviato6@lsu.edu. Below is the powerpoint from the presentation for those who were unable to attend.
