That's probably a great decision. These budget cuts are going to cripple LSU for years.

Likewise, though that was going to happen anyway...but to the poster who thinks the Legacy cuts are a great idea, ponder this--it's not just about providing a monetary benefit to alumni (though that's certainly an effect); a university becomes immeasurably stronger by attracting talented students and professors from around the world. This program was one way to allow outstanding students whose parents moved away to attend LSU rather than taking their talents elsewhere. LSU has incredible potential to make a run at Top 50 status as an academic and research institution; while I understand why the Chancellor made the decision here, I believe it may have some seriously detrimental long-term effects down the line. I hope I am wrong.

Same here, there goes the legacy, I'm not paying out of state for my kid to go to LSU, I love LSU, but the school just isn't good enough to justify that cost. There are alot of LSU alumni in Texas, alot of Season Ticket holders, alot of people who donate to the school, this is going to piss them off.
