  54. ^ Several real schools have borne the University of Louisiana name. From 1847 to 1884, Tulane University was known as The University of Louisiana. In 1995, the modern University of Louisiana System was established, but no schools took the "University of Louisiana" name until 1999, the year after The Waterboy was released. In that year, the schools formerly known as the University of Southwestern Louisiana and Northeast Louisiana University became, respectively, the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and Monroe. Under the law establishing the University of Louisiana System, no school can call itself "University of Louisiana" without a city or other regional identifier. Both modern "Louisiana" schools are generally referred to as "Louisiana-Lafayette" and "Louisiana-Monroe", and their teams are respectively Ragin' Cajuns and Warhawks (the latter was known as the Indians until June 2006).
