I’m sure so. More than likely he’ll be here for a few years and fundamentally change nothing about LSU but everyone will flip their shite over a bunch of empty PR/ad campaigns about racial stuff, and then he’ll go to a more prestigious university and we’ll find something new to melt about


It's amazing what the Overton Window does to people's thinking. It's makes this picture not only appropriate, but prescient.

You can’t cut down the trees because they have the name of who planted them and then bitch about not having shade... Dumb communist fks. The name on the building is there because a man donated his wealth to establish it, his time, his economy to pave the way for woke to dishonor it.

He can’t just come in and change things. It has to be voted on by the BOS!! This ain’t the president of the United States.

If he raises the ACT/GPA requirements to get into LSU, then he's a hero of mine. The current academic requirements are joke. Makes us look like Ole Miss. If we're the "flagship," then we should raise the requirements.

Who also is not supposed to come in and change things. At least according to the constitution he isn’t.

BATON ROUGE – During the June 19 meeting of the LSU Board of Supervisors, the board approved the recommendation to remove the name Troy H. Middleton from the main library at LSU.

Prior to the academic committee meeting, Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards spoke in support of removing the name from the library.

This seal the deal.

I'm sure that one day there will be a thread where people talk about how they hysterically overreacted before the dude even had one day on the job.


So we've arrived at the spot where a major fricking university president "not being as bad as we thought" is now acceptable.

The point is that he never should've been hired. Even the mild acceptance of CRT is a disqualifying factor for ANY job, down to janitor.

If he chooses not to push the CRT agenda, then great, but it doesn't change the facts of today.

So this goes for CST(Critical Superiority Theory)?

You don’t have to reach at all. He’s doing it all on his own.
