"There's a sucker born every minute" Larry Clark - basically.
Yep and he doesn't realize he is part of the problem. Universities need to merge. Just not mine. I think the real issue is that everyone will have different criteria for how to decide who gets...
student/ faculty numbers and student to faculty ratios look messed up.
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!
If we are waiting on these guys to get a clue we will be waiting a long time.
The system can redistribute funds between the institutions, but I am surprised that LSUS (who isn't in great financial shape anyways) would transfer SELF-GENERATED funds to another LSU system...
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 spoke to Dr. Guice and Dr. Napper last week at the Houston Tailgate. Both of them indicated that an LSUS merger is still high on the agenda. It's not likely to happen until we have a new...
Exactly. We need the masses to get behind this. Fighting LSU is not the goal in this merger. Improving Louisiana Tech, improving higher education in Shreveport-Bossier, boosting the NW LA economy....
I'm glad that he is going to be a part of our Shreveport initiative! I think this is great news.
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.
Imagine Tech with a 10 Billion dollar endowment
Imagine 7 National Championships in a row played out in front of our 200,000 seat Joe Aillet Mega stadium
Imagine Ruston with a population of 1...
Everyone against the merger proposes Tech-Grambling, because they think the reason it's not talked about is some sort of racist agenda. Merging Tech and Grambling amounts to closing Grambling. ...
ME for the win!
I would agree with that. PE was a strong program for us and it really didn't require that many more resources for us to keep it. The program isn't even that successful in Baton Rouge so LSUS isn't...
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.
...
This is correct. The degree will be offered from LSU BR with students able to take some of the non enginering classes on LSUS campus. The degree would be from Baton Rouge, students would pay LSU BR...
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.
This makes me wonder if the reason LSUS and LSUA could not be identified accurately is because many of the graduates listed their school as LSU. SU -New Orleans was probably the same issue. I would...
That's a great article.
Does anyone have copies or summaries of the old reports on the merger. Like the one from the 90's? The link in Dawg06's post doesn't work anymore. Quite a few of the...
Good find. Thanks!
Thanks for the play by play guys. Some of us couldn't watch it and it was nice to be able to catch up.
