Schools include: Grambling, La Tech, McNeese, Nicholls, NWSU, SELU, ULL, ULM,
Here is your damn problem. We have WAY too many damn schools. We should cut them down to LSU BR, LSU Shreveport, UNO and maybe ULL. Why is it that LA refuses to eliminate all these institutions?

100% agree!!!
We also have THREE state university systems
Maryland, which has 2 million more citizens than Louisiana has only one system and is in the midst of a campus consolidation plan saving millions if not billions of higher ed dollars

Don't forget the upper echelon of waste that is SUNO.

Why keep LSU Shreveport?

You want to cut La Tech but keep LSU-S?

While I agree that we have way too many universities, it’s not that easy to consolidate them all to 4 like you’re suggesting. Just closing the other UL system schools in this thread (excluding ULL and UNO) would account for 65,000 additional students. Add another 15,000 from the Southern University system. Capacity for another 80k students ain’t cheap. That’s the equivalent of building 2-3 more universities the size of LSU BR. What about housing? Transportation/roadway/parking improvements?
And that’s before you even get into the argument over which schools close. LSU-S has only 2,500 undergrad students while ULM has 7,500 undergrad. So do you close ULM and quadruple LSU-S undergrad capacity, or do you close LSU-S undergrad programs but keep the LSU-HSC in Shreveport? And good luck closing Southern and Grambling.

You'd have to keep Southeastern, UL-L, and Tech.
Scuttle UNO and LSU-S.
