What is the Region IV Social Studies Fair?
The College of Liberal Arts at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette welcomes your participation in the Region VI Social Studies Fair. This academic competition has provided a positive learning experience for Acadiana’s youth for more than 25 years.
Each participant at the Region VI Fair competes at school and parish levels. All students participating in the school and parish fairs should be familiar with the regulations and procedures.
