    Important Re: The (LA Tech/LSUS) Merger Thread II

    This was a pretty good idea when first proposed. The continued neglect of LSUS makes it worse and worse as time goes on. Eventually LSUS will starve out. We just have to focus on making Tech the...

    That was my exact thought when I read that statement. He is absolutely correct. They have never been more committed. Just as true if you take out the more.

    Yeah but everybody knows that Tech sucks and LSUs Rules!

    I don't know if I get it. What is mayor Glover's dog problem, and are they simply pointing out that LSUS is in trouble because Tech is moving in?

    I agree that the AAUP is a joke, I also agree with Dawg06 that the ignorant LSUS professor should be taken to task for making such an ignorant comment and then having it blow up in her face.

    We won't be impressed. LSUS will have a hard time drawing flies to its PE degree especially if they try to offer it online. If they get more than a dozen takers it will be a raging success.

    That is correct. There is certainly a chance that LSUHSC-Shreve could close down, but that would only be after LSUS, LSUA, and LSUE shut down. In other words, not much of a chance.
