Every building should be given a name such as "Multi-purpose building 3."

I laugh at and weep for you at the same time.

Hopefully, someone in BR grows some balls and stops this nonsense.

It is a sad time when a small group of people dictate cultural policy to everyone because they're offended over an imaginary boogeyman.

is there a "savory character" index we can use to determine who is "savory" and who is "unsavory"

Congrats on the new Obama and Holder buildings LSU. Give in to these groups and you get what you deserve.

including the LSU chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers, the LSU Student Government Senate, the Black Leadership Council, the Clarence Barney African American Cultural Center, the Society of African and African American Studies and the LSU chapter of Zeta Phi Beta sorority. Their aim is to have LSU better reflect the diverse student population.

that doesn't look like a very diverse group....methinks they may be a bit self-serving.

In 1922, Governor Parker sent the Federal Bureau of Investigation a message begging for help in fighting the Ku Klux Klan, which had grown so powerful in Louisiana that it not only controlled the northern half of the state but had kidnapped, tortured, and killed two people who opposed it.


in 1922, the above act alone makes Parker a progressive

ETA: I'd also like to point out that neither of these governors were half as corrupt at Huey P Long, and his name is literally everywhere on campus.

Time to counter protest. Just call them what they are:
Losers with self-entitlement issues that have never done anything of merit and shouldn't be listened to. And tell them they can take their tuition money elsewhere or better yet just drop out because we all know the taxpayer won't be getting that student loan money back.

Millennials. The Worst Generation.
