Searched Senate. Searched parade.

quote:

Amid the recent safety concerns on LSU football game days, State Senate President Cameron Henry said Friday he has recommended that LSU move all fraternity tailgates from public spaces to their on-campus houses.

Two gun-related incidents just off-campus during the last two home games have prompted the state government and LSU’s Board of Supervisors to put more security measures in place for the upcoming home games.

Now, Henry, a Republican from Metairie, is suggesting the removal of LSU Greek life from the LSU Parade Grounds on campus. He said he made that suggestion over the last week or two to Scott Ballard, the chair of the LSU Board of Supervisors. Ballard and LSU communications officials did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Friday.

That’s how it was. The tailgate was at the house. It’s how it should be.

Yeah it’s definitely the fraternity tailgates causing all the problems and gun violence. This will solve it!

Fraternities were shooting at each other? I thought they were moved from the houses to keep a closer eye on the drinking by minors.

Was his head so far up his own arse that he couldn’t read the actual reports regarding who the perps are?

They were only on the parade grounds because they were banned from having the parties at their houses FFS IIRC.

Did they find the problem was the NPHC fraternities and sororities? Or were different organizations the ones tied to the problems?

LSU needs to do something about game day - it is an unsafe cluster for sure - not sure this is the prescription needed though.

YES!!

They should let the frats party at their houses….not that there is any parallel to be drawn from the “shootings” though…it’s still the way it should be

Wasn’t it outside people? If so, that’s not Greek. I don’t recall ever hearing of shootings on or that close to campus during tailgating or football games. It has always been sketchy around LSU, but not this.

This guy is clearly a plant because moving it back to the houses is amazing.

Tomorrow will be a shite show. They flooded the unity field. All of them will end up on the parade grounds. Somebody will do something dumb. That’s a great mix of people, frat kids and the people who lost their tailgate area and are pissed. Not sure LSU thought this through.

YES

Totally agree to allow the groups to return back to their houses and regulate themselves
