| - Nicholls State University, founded in 1948, is a public university located in Thibodaux, Louisiana. Nicholls State is part of the University of Louisiana System of universities. Originally called Francis T. Nicholls Junior College, the institution split from the Louisiana State University System in 1956. The university is named for Francis T. Nicholls, a former governor of Louisiana and member of the Louisiana Supreme Court. Nicholls State sports teams participate in NCAA Division I (Football Championship Subdivision or FCS for football) in the Southland Conference. Nicholls State's colors are red and gray (two-tone) and the athletics teams are nicknamed the Colonels (men) and Lady Colonels (women). Nicholls State currently has no physical mascot. The colonel is still used only in name. President Stephen Hulbert stated that "The Colonel is and will remain the mascot designation for Nicholls State University and its intercollegiate athletics program" on March 31st 2004 while calling the current colonel depiction antiquated and reminiscent of the civil war in the south. A student contest to select a new mascot was not successful. The Nicholls State University Department of Athletics currently sponsors Men's Intercollegiate baseball, basketball, football, golf and tennis along with Women's Intercollegiate basketball, softball, soccer, tennis, track, golf, volleyball and cheerleading.
