Dear LSU Family,
Universities like LSU have important missions to fulfill. We are responsible for educating the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and doers. In fact, as a member of the 1% of U.S. universities holding land-, sea-, and space-grant designations, we are tasked with generating research that will solve the world's biggest challenges where they hit closest to home right here in Louisiana. Disease, coastal erosion, diminishing supplies of clean water -- you name it, and LSU is working to solve it. And we are committed to giving back to our communities through outreach and support.
In recognition of the critical role we fill, LSU is recommitting to our flagship roots through our new Strategic Plan. This document outlines a razor-edged focus on six challenges facing our state:
Advancing Arts & Culture
Bridging the Coast, Energy, and Environment
Fostering Research and Catalyzing Economic Development
Improving Health and Well-being
Transforming Education
Developing Leaders
Through channeling our collective efforts toward real-world problems that have local ramifications and global implications, we will provide our students with a world-class education that sets them up for success throughout their lifetimes.
We think that's a mission worth having.
Sincerely,
F. King Alexander
LSU President

He's trying to convince people that LSU's main focus is academics and not football. Its what schools do when their football team sucks.

I know the university's main goal is education and research. No one disputes that.
But is there any doubt that the timing and content of that letter is specifically to remind football fans of their place.
That letter to me says we are stuck with Alleva and O for as long a FKing is around and frick any football fan who presumes to tell him their opinion.
