An article posted tonight (9:46 p.m., 10-22-2013) looks into ULL's efforts to drop the second "L" of its name.
Read "ULL branding practice of losing 'Lafayette' violates law, creates false image, officials say" at http://www.thenewsstar.com/article/2...-officials-say
Do they not know what they say?
Quote:
Sandra Woodley, University of Louisiana System president, said the board could not enforce what outside entities call universities. “We do ask that the president and the institution do adhere to the board policy and think for the most part they do.”Sun Belt Commissioner Karl Benson had a similar stance on the situation.

“The Sun Belt Conference and its conference office staff should refer to each of our universities as they wish to be referred,” Benson said. “It isn’t my responsibility to enforce or police any state guidelines.
Nice closing statement Dawgpix.
The comments from the uslull peanut gallery is so insecure-sounding.
The ULL Athletics Media Relations department directly and routinely violates Board policy in official university releases. When there are no consequences, the ULS Board of Supervisors has lost its legitimacy as a governing body.
If all the Board can do is "ask that the president and the institution do adhere to the board policy", then the ULS Board serves no useful purpose and should be abolished. Funding wasted to operate the board would be better spent directly by system universities.
Let her hear it.
Dr. Sandra K. Woodley

It appears Bruno is part of the problem.
Noticed in the 2nd half they went back to UL-Lafayette
That's all I saw. Did they actually have "UL" or "Louisiana" in the first half?Quote:

Don't forget the academic side. They've been deleting the "at Lafayette" all over campus.Quote:

I think ESPN will continue to call ULL whatever they want regardless of the Cajuns wishes
