Moving from the state’s capitol to Thibodaux, Andre Smith, dietetics freshman from Baton Rouge, brings a vibrant persona to Nicholls.

Smith’s favorite color changes every day along with the color of his hair. His mohawk color ranges from orange, red, blue, and now, green. He changes his hair color to go with every season, and he plans for his next color to be pink.

Smith says that he wants to change the world’s eating habits one person at a time. He plans to make healthy food for people so there will not be any more cases of obesity and diabetes.  

“It will stop people from having to run 10 miles to lose weight,” Smith said, “People can go eat a healthy snack and be done with weight problems.”
