Being opposed by the faculty senate is a big positive in a university leadership candidate.

What students will be paying for it? When my kids enroll, guess what, they didn’t approve them.

Let’s not forget the 4 staffers that didn’t follow the law and register there vehicles,

The ones no longer employed?

And did you know about that law before that story came out?

this is very, very sad. you're attitude is deplorable to me. l don't like the way our BB coach is being treated (nor do I) and YOU are recommending ruining the university as a solution.

the attitude of if i'm unhappy so advocate destroying (or damaging greatly) and institution is very immature and destructive.

you should be proud of yourself.

Agree with most but the lazy river argument is stupid. That was student fees that students picked. The problem with lists like this is one stupid point ruins the effect of the other points.

don't know if that's what he's saying or not, but the administration's dealings with that seem to be adequate. LSU has a heavy population of children wanting to pay for exclusive friendships. When children (or young adults) are running the show, shite like hazing deaths happen. LSU should be all up in that shite to knock it ALL off.

Fans aren't the reason LSU is in the situations they're in. Many of us chose not to tolerate it.

Don’t ever under estimate some leverage. The hostage doesn’t always have a bunch to do with the cops or the criminal. This is absolutely an appropriate avenue to get the BOS attention

The Rec needed to be renovated. Like badly needed to be renovated. Have you seen the rec centers at other schools?

If you want leverage, you don't stop giving money. Those that give the money have the most leverage with a university. Stop giving it to the athletic dept and give to the foundation. That's what King pays attention to. You all give more money to the athletic dept than to your academic foundation every year. King wants academic donations. Give there and have leverage with him. For example, look at the major leverage the USC Board of Trustees has. They are all major academic donors. They might give some to athletics but by giving to academics, they get say in everything that happens at the school (good or bad, lately).
