Cuz: You gave me a googled answer. That's the point. It's not something that is taught in school, as it's been marketed as. Despite our beliefs on it, the school isn't/wasn't ever pushing this narrative. People assumed and ran with it.

Crime is everywhere is the point. Worry is understandable, but BR crime isn't LSU crime, if that makes sense (regarding follow up post about crime)

At this point BR needs to treat LSU like LSU treats athletics as a way to attract people. The governor needs to use LSU as a way to positively influence the growth of BR.

No, I didn't. I gave you references to CRT authors. If you would like to further discuss CRT, start a thread on the poli board.

Yes, it is. It is not exclusive to LSU, but don't pretend that culture isn't present.

They can light up TS in Floyd's school colors, but when Allie Rice, a student at this school was murdered, meh, no social points to be scored. No colors for you, same for Madison Brooks.


I had hoped for a long time my kids would go to LSU, I would see them more often even if they lived on or around campus.

CRT is the "religion" behind turning TS lights into Floyd's colors, removing Gen. Middleton's name from the library, and expunging the female tennis player.

And you are certainly downplaying the severity and proximity of crime by LSU. It wasn't always like this.

Moreover, many schools in our peer group don't have the crime rates in their towns that BR does. College Station is an eyesore of a campus compared to LSU's beauty but the town is clean and far safer.
