It seems like it really shifted somewhere with President Tate & Angel Reese era

Correct. F. King started it and Tate made it the focal point of admissions and culture.

Having retards like Angel Reese on campus didn’t help either

Nothing has been done to turn this shitshow around until now with Rousse, but he and Landry have a long way to go before LSU is back to being semi-respectable.

when you let anyone in with no regards to prior achievements and ability you get this.

Since we started playing nonstop rap music the entire game. Calling BR is the only non-rap I hear at games.

It’s likely to get worse before it gets better. They reduced the size of fall 2026 incoming freshmen class even with the record number of applications, but temporarily that is increasing the weight of the prior 2 incoming classes that set records for total quantities while reducing whites to below 50% in both classes. Tate even reduce the quantity of whites in class somehow while setting records for increasing the size of the incoming freshmen classes. Since the holistic approach including not requiring ACT or SAT scores was also used in the awarding of scholarships along with admissions more of those classes are likely to return each fall until they finish.

So even while the %s for 2026 changed from Tate’s trend of lowering the % of whites in each incoming freshmen class (especially 2025 and 2024 fall classes):
quote:

Fall New Incoming Freshmen
2025
Total 8,212
white 3,995 48.6%
black 2,331 28.4%

2026
Total 7,482
white 3,817 51%
black 1,924 25.7%



The total undergraduates still continued Tate’s trend of reducing the white %:
quote:

Fall 2025 Total Undergraduates
whites 53.9%
blacks 23.5%
hispanics 10.9%
asians 4.3%

Fall 2026 Total Undergraduates
whites 52.8%
blacks 24.2%
hispanics 11.1%
asians 4.5%

I went to a high school game couple weeks ago in small stadium All they played was rap music as loud as possible with the scratchy equipment there. I was ready to leave before kickoff.

Probably can trace it back to when they started playing “bitch I’m from Louisiana” to start each home game

You can thank Tate. He talked a good game, said all the right things but was quietly importing as much ghetto as he could in both the faculty and student body. It was done right before our eyes.

Bingo!
The campus has always been a beautiful place to take a stroll with little fear. In the last few years that has tragically changed.

And when it was open enrollment in the 1960s-70s, it was much more civil.
