"Tulane University is a private, nonsectarian, coeducational research university located in New Orleans, Louisiana. Founded as a public medical college in 1834, the school grew into a full university and was eventually privatized under the endowments of Paul Tulane and Josephine Louise Newcomb in the late 19th century. It is the only American university that has been converted from a public institution to a private institution. Green Wave, the nickname of the sports teams of Tulane University, was adopted during the 1920 season, after a song titled The Rolling Green Wave was published in Tulane's student newspaper in 1920. Prior to that, the teams were known officially as \"The Olive and Blue\" and unofficially referred to as \"The Greenies\" or \"The Greenbacks.\" Tulane is a member of Conference USA in athletics. Prior to Hurricane Katrina, the university fielded NCAA Division I teams in 16 sports. As part of the university's Renewal Plan some sports were suspended. Tulane currently has six Division I-A programs\u2014football, men and women's basketball, baseball, women's volleyball, and women's track\u2014which compete in eight sports; however, they plan to field 16 sports by 2011."@en . . . .
