UL Bylaws Enforcement?
An out of state friend called inquiring where is the campus of the “Louisiana” school listed in the scores crawl-line at the bottom of the ESPN football game he was watching.
I explained that according to the University of Louisiana System bylaws*, none of the nine UL campuses are allowed to refer to itself as the “University of Louisiana” without the abbreviation of the town name of its location but there are two such campuses, in Monroe and Lafayette.
*University of Louisiana bylaws state that “the use of the University of Louisiana abbreviation must always include the abbreviation for the municipal location of the institution” and “the use of the University of Louisiana abbreviation must always include the abbreviation for the municipal location of the institution.”**
This brings to mind who oversees that UL bylaws are enforced and how are any and all bylaws deviances handled?

I'll never call them that, and I get the opposition, but I think our cajun friends would point out that ESPN didn't call them "The University of Louisiana" in their crawl.

Re: UL Bylaws Enforcement?
I believe the by-laws apply to official documents and designations, and I believe the University of Slow Learners gets around that by saying it's their "unofficial athletic branding"
-
Re: UL Bylaws Enforcement?
They get around that rule by saying that THEY didnt call themselves "Louisiana', and it aint THEIR fault what ESPN calls them ...
It's a classic S.La "slick" manuver. (cf. Edwin Edwards) And for that, it holds my grudging respect.
"You guys cant call yourselves Louisiana. It's against the rules"
"We didnt say that. Everyone else did."
"But you told everyone else to call you that"
"OK, but there aint a rule against that."

Re: UL Bylaws Enforcement?
What I think your university's president realizes that people on a message board don't is that it doesn't help anyone to expend effort being petty and tearing down other universities. Whining about what we call ourselves on the football field doesn't make La Tech or any other UL school a better university. This is a lesson your athletic department is having to learn the hard way after it spent years trying to screw over in-state and Sun Belt athletic programs thinking it would somehow elevate La Tech.
Since y'all seem to be taking an interest in us, y'all might want to know that we officially became a "Tier One" school according to the Carnegie Classifications which puts us in a category with all of the top national research universities. This is a big feather in our cap and it will open up a lot of opportunities for us to further improve and better ourselves. It turns out that it doesn't matter what anyone calls you as long as you put in the work.

Interesting though that exact phrase "University of Louisiana" is found twice on the official page of the classification. The original University of Louisiana is on there of course and then the University of Louisiana at Monroe's sister school, the University of Louisiana at Lafayette is also on there. Would you agree that the names on the list are correct?

THIS. They love to talk about how Tech is all "arrogant" or "uppity". But it's all based off one off-hand remark from a former AD (one generally disliked by Tech fans).
As for ULL's elevation to Carnegie 1 status ... good on them. It's a shame their long history of bribery and corruption calls even that into question.

I still don't understand why Sunbelt fans are so insulted by what T-Mac said in that video? I've watched that video 500 times, and he didn't say anything insulting at all. All he said was that CUSA was not in any kind of merger negotiations with the Sunbelt. Period. That's it. What's so wrong with that?
-
Re: UL Bylaws Enforcement?
In today’s world of wrongdoing and lawlessness if you can roll up to a store and walk out with anything you want and nobody dares to says anything then ULL can certainly pretend to be the fake school of Louisiana. It’s just goes with their pretender MO.

As others have said, congratulations! It's good for the state.
I know at 99% of the research dollars are in "wetlands" research, but I don't know if that includes coastal erosion.
If so, that's good for the state. It may one day be a part of saving a good portion of coastal Louisiana.

….you are correct about past research % to some wetlands projects,….but UL played a huge part in the COVID-19 projects and discoveries made….I remember I think Dr Taylor your past president…….he is T-Joe Savoie at UL…..damn I hated that guy because he did the most with the least…..I can see how just so much is done with great leadership and I think our President, AD, And football coach all fit that category…..I once heard Terry Bradshaw complain about coaches leaving Tech….well I hope we can refill with our FB loss, and think we have!

Our 2019 research in engineering alone was larger than your campus-wide research budget.

Re: UL Bylaws Enforcement?
Tech was making steady progress, including growing the research budget, under Reneau. But Guice has done absolutely nothing but tread water. After back to back good presidents with a vision, Taylor and Reneau, Tech laid an egg with Guice who just draws a paycheck.

LOL! They never have been the brightest bulbs in the lamp down in the Atchafalaya Basin, but at least they're producing some results. That's more than I see for many other Louisiana schools.
So they're busting at the gut to worry about what "Ruston" thinks of the new Carnegie Designation for UL-Lafayette. Here's what this "RUSTON" guy thinks:
As a Louisiana TAXPAYER, I am happy to see that UL-Lafayette is actually pulling its weight as a state university in Louisiana. There are about 6-8 others who aren't ranked AT. ALL. ANYWHERE.
Instead of, "hey this proves my school is better than yours" let's ask the question this way...If you take LSU, UL-Lafayette, LaTech, and UNO out of the research and development equation, what are the rest of our state schools doing with the taxpayer money they get?

If by "taxpayer money" you mean state general revenue -- they're probably just keeping the lights on, seeing as those amounts range from negligible to insignificant.
What they do with tuition and other student fees is probably a more meaningful discussion.

I didn't read all your drivel, but don't lecture others about anything as your school lacks ETHICS, not to mention abiding by Law, as athletics is specifically included in such. However, the lack of ethical behavior, as exhibited by ULL in your shameful pursuit, reflects on the UL System - which ULL has no right to do. The UL System and State are at fault, also. Yes, the issue you alone created has "left the barn" but will hopefully be rectified when the shame and damage your school instigated is correctly perceived.

Re: UL Bylaws Enforcement?
I just started looking into the finances of ULL. As DFM and Paw stated, it is a bit eye opening. I will spend more time researching - but first indication is that the financial condition of UL is highly concerning.
We really need our own system and breakaway from all the lose cannons in the UL system. When you don’t play by the same rules, you generally lose. Although in this case, UL-L may be in such a fiscal predicament that they may be their own worst enemy right now.
-
Re: UL Bylaws Enforcement?
We all know people who mismanage their household finances. They have all the fancy toys, like a $70,000 pick-em-up truck, ATVs, jet skis, etc...and debt up to their ears! They have no savings/investments to speak of and are at extreme risk of a financial collapse at any moment. They then point at a neighbor, who is frugal, little debt, has solid savings/investments, and drives a 2012 pick-up truck that is paid for, and the big spenders boast "separation, baby!"
Yep! fools and their money are soon separated.

On paper yes. But for a fee, the Board members (and the elected officials who appoint them) can be convinced that everything is just fine.
Think of it as a "subscription" service. For a small recurring charge, you can access whatever public resources you want -- without further questions! Basically Cajun Netflix.
