There's No Way Schools Are Getting Shutdown/Consolidated; Example: Southern LAW

You can't consolidate an entire law school, hardly any of their students would meet to standard for acceptance into LSU.

Can you imagine the national firestorm if the State tried to shut down the law school that was created specifically for racism?

I remember I was blessed with an exchange student from Southern one semester at LSU; luckily it was in Alston Johnston's class, so she got completely destroyed every time she was called on. He eventually grew impatient and wouldn't even call on her.

Just a reminder that shutting down an entire law school is too "disenfranchising" for modern tastes.

I know we have a lot of Southern grads on here; what do you think?

The state tried to merge SUNO with UNO and received a huge backlash for it.

The graduation rate at SUNO is abysmal.

Segregation is over. All you have to do is meet LSU law school requirements. How is that racist?

I haven't heard a single learned person calling for the shut down of Southern (BR) or Southern Law School.

People are demanding that SUNO be shut down, Grambling merged with Tech, and a lot of other schools demoted to 2 year community colleges that feed into the major 4 year schools of La Tech, LSU, Southern, ULL, SELU, and UNO.

There is nothing illegal about shutting it down, so I guess you are relying on the political firestorm that might erupt if they announce a planned closure.

I'd hope we'd elect politicians with more backbone than that, but I guess that's wishful thinking.

Personal opinion, SOuthern Law needs to go. It's a bottom of the barrel law school, and most of their graduates end up working in state government or low rent PI jobs.

We should do away with racial quotas and go to a completely merit based system.

Anything else is discriminatory.

Can we just get a "Shut all the colleges down" megathread instead of 3 new ones a day about the same fricking thing?

Georgia did this exact same thing. I don't see why Louisiana can't.
