I don't know anything about any of the finalists for the LSU presidency, so I did a little research. This is a good bio on Wade Rousse:

quote:

He moved to Arizona to pursue a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Illinois at Chicago while serving as a member of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and on staff at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.

At Northern Arizona University, he became associate dean of The W.A. Franke College of Business and interim director of the Alliance Bank Economic Policy Institute.

I'm not an expert, but it seems like LSU has been on a different trajectory than the other big southern schools. I hope the next president can reverse that.

I’ve met him a couple of times and am a big fan of his.

When he became the dean of the college of business at McNeese I was in my final year of accounting. He made it a point to routinely visit classrooms. It didn’t give the vibe of micromanaging professors but more like he had a genuine interest in getting to know every person in that building.

He's had McNeese definitely headed in a better direction.

I hope he doesn't leave for McNeese's sake.

If he does at least its to LSU.

He'd be a good hire.

He’s made a good impression with me on the three occasions that I’ve met him. He’s very personable and thoughtful. I have no knowledge about how well he can run the flagship university of our state. He made personal visits and phone calls to prospective students who considering attending McNeese that were friends of mine.

Great, another libtard who calls himself the president and doesn't recognize Trump.
