I remember the Morning Advocate. And it has fallen off exponentially since they merged.

I think doing this article the day before we play clemson for the national title in football is beyond idiotic.

Doesn't the athletic department contribute MILLIONS back to the academic arena annually?!?!?
Yes.
Tuition at LSU is also only 2/3rds of Clemson's.

"Both Galligan and Werner noted that rankings can be arbitrary, and hardly tell the whole story." No kidding!

I'd guess that in >>95% of instances there would not be a whiff of a difference in employability based on an LSU vs Clemson diploma.

Really dumb article.

I saw that and it is so sad. After this how could the Advocate even exist ! LSU is a great school with good teachers. They should have wrote something about the joke online programs , to many to name.

Please identify one statement in the article that is factually incorrect.
The insinuation that an LSU degree is less valuable is not correct.

The advocate should be ashamed of themselves! Why now, why at this moment if it was so paramount!!!!!

If you subscribe to The Advocate, do what I did and unsubscribe. They’ve called me over a half dozen times asking me to re-subscribe. I decline and direct them to take me off their list.

If you read online, find another news source. Don’t give them the satisfaction of your clicks.

I woke up this morning in disbelief! On the "front" page of the ADVOCATE, "CLEMSON DOMINATES" is what I see first..


SIMPLE solution

Every Tiger fan boycott the Advocate and more importantly boycott the companies that advertise in the Advocate

Ground root campaign

Hit them where it hurts in the pocket book
