You’re claiming the President of the university demanded 50% capacity and limited tailgating and settled for full capacity and no tailgating restrictions?

And was then informed that athletics really runs this school.

Does that mean at half time it will only be at 25% capacity?

It sounds like Mr. Tate was confused about his authority.

It’s ok.

He stopped by the Union to play putt-putt with some of the students. So it’s all going to be ok

Skeptical because LSU faculty pushed hard for online classes and Tate shut that shite down. He also shut down a proposal for faculty to teach online and in person.

I heard LSU was getting a ton of pressure from the governor's office for weeks to do something or health officials were going to do something.

It also doesn't make much sense that the university president pushed for something and got absolutely nothing. He's new but he has more pull than that.

Maybe we should just worry about real decisions? Not non-decisions that really mean nothing

I could see this being the actual case. Every part of this seems like LSU saying. "Look see...we're doing something....happy?"
