As well as valuable facilities for art students at LHU, the Price Performance Centre, Sloan Auditorium and Fine Arts Gallery all put on displays and performances throughout the year, open to the student body and local community to attend. The Fredericks Family Memorial Carillon on campus is one of less than 200 grand carillons in the United States. It is comprised of 47 tuned bronze bells, in total weighing almost 25,000 pounds.

Athletics teams at LHU have been known as the Bald Eagles since 1937 following a vote by the student body.
