The state of Louisiana has become very blind to what is going on. TOPS "may" have been designed to keep the best and brightest at home, but it is rewarding the very average as well.
I don't see how that precludes the program from keeping the best in state.

At the same time they are financially punishing higher achieving out-of-state students.
I'm not buying this. LSU (and all of LA) has some of the lowest oos tuition in the country
