Libraries provide so many resources it would make your head spin. Your local library probably does a lot more than it gets credit for. Yes, libraries are absolutely necessary.

I bet the Cajun Navy and a handful of elementary school students could fix it overnight free of charge .

yeah, want to really be pissed? Look at your tax dollars that are going to pay for sport at ULaLa and other state schools. That needs to stop. If you can't afford to pay for D1, get out.

Whoof. These privately funded athletic facility upgrades really brought out the stupid on the rant and other social media today.

I'll give them 500 bucks to pay the insurance deductible.

What kind of parents raise a kid to think, “they have money to buy the things they want. While we have an administration that has the money but misappropriates it and now our building are falling apart.....Give is their money and we’ll give it to the same failed administration.”

Because LSU athletics has, doesn’t mean the LSU school institution has not.

The LSU Foundation raises millions and millions of dollars each year. That’s a question for them and F King.

It’s 2019. Why does anyone need a library. I have a phone in my hand that I can read anything I dare to imagine off of it.

Perhaps you should have taken an Econ class while in school. Even with a leaky roof you would understand how ignorant this statement is.

Have read anything in this thread?
The facility upgrades are partly or fully funded by private donations.
Those donors wanted the facilities upgraded. They didn’t donate monies to go to the library, that would be fixed if LSU leadership wasnt mismanaging the monies they get yearly.

How can by you fix corruption? By throwing more money at it? No you fix that problem by changing leadership and bringing in competent people.

No one has a right to tell people how to be generous with their own money.

I don’t think you quite understand just how much money the Saints make the state of Louisiana.

All I'm saying is that LSU made a bad deal with TAF. TAF would be nothing if it couldn't market LSU athletics. There is no LSU atletics without LSU. Both sides need to sit down and negotiate.


You idiot... I am so sick of this narrative.
They increase tuition and fees relentlessly, and they still don’t have enough money. Why??? Is it because of some decision by the taf (which has absolutely no part in this)? Or is it the terrible spending habits by the university, so now instead of fixing the issues they have caused, they want a bailout. No..... fix the damn problems.

This is the quote of a college educated person with no common sense.

It’s like college algebra 101 took up so much real estate in your brain that you come out with comments like this.









You could actually make a case that this thread gets moved to the poli board where real working men and women will see this and add further comments like mine.
