To me, from the outside looking in, (not knowing the current Louisiana political landscape). Why wouldn't this merger pass?

The local business community supports it, the local city adminstrations support it, the local Black community supports it.
The only opposed are the LSUS faculty and LSU sympathizers.

Time to put the local legislators to task, either they show support for their constituents North Louisiana or they show support for a university 200 miles away, LSU
