The researchers and professors that I know I not whining. They are packing up and leaving to go to other schools that pay better in states that support higher ed better than LA Yes LSU main campus can raise tuition to off set cuts. These research institutions cant. The cuts are devastating and are driving some of the smartest people in this state out.

What cuts? Seriously what cuts at LSU are you talking about?

Are you talking about Pennington?

In FY 2007 their budget was $13.1 million In FY 13-14 their budget was $14.3 million. The problem was in FY 2007-08, their budget was $19.6 million

They have only had devastating cuts because the legislature (and higher ed leaders) expanded their budget when it was not sustainable.

ETA: that said, I wish we put more into Pennington.
