See Tulane’s campus, St. Charles Avenue and the Uptown New Orleans neighborhoods around it on a private tour led by a current Tulane student. You’ll see where students actually live, eat, study and spend their weekends, from the dorms and quad to the streets where upperclassmen rent. Tell us what you care about and your guide builds the route around it, so you get an honest, inside look at daily life instead of a script. Ask anything about housing, Greek life, classes or moving to New Orleans and get a real answer from someone living it.

The French brought the opera to New Orleans in the early 1800’s. This sophisticated music flourished here long before New York or any other city in North America. The free people of color introduced the harmony and spirituality of Sunday church music and the bordellos of Storyville led to music greats Buddy Bolden, Louis Armstrong and King Oliver. This evolved into the only true American music that was born in the gentlemen parlors of Treme and was called JAZZ.
