The rest of us graduated from The University Of Louisiana and you can tell our education is vastly superior due to it being the flagship school and not having to take 4 semesters of diversity classes


I’m starting to believe ULL is superior.

I work as a technical recruiter and shoot the shite on the phone with a lot of my best clients (engineers, O&G guys, construction managers, and tech guys). A lot of them are LSU alums and two of them brought it up today and told me they quit recurring donations. That's 4 people I know personally that stopped donating because of this if I count me and my cousin.

Why are people stopping now? The guy hasn't done anything yet. Are they stopping to see what happens so they can decide whether to start donations up again?

He is a symbol of where things have already been going. Alumni need to let him know that CRT and renaming shite isn't in his best interest.

I see smaller donors ending donations but the larger donors, who are older, will continue to donate just as before because they just can’t bear to see the perks of being a big donor go away. They’ve become entitled and accustomed to the perks and “prestige” that comes with the territory. Their own self interests will always come before the interests of the university they claim to love so much.




Just the opposite. When donors are committed for a long time and LSU takes a left turn, the majority of donors aren't going to be on board.

I still can't find a quote where he said he might change our mascot.

I was planning to donate a million dollars for a new pickleball court outside CEBA, but that has been rescinded.

Let me rephrase, I don’t let who the President is let alone a school president affect my life especially before they even do anything.


Hilarious some people think they’re taking the high rode by being willfully ignorant or not giving a shite about politics. A black supremacist whitey hating critical race theory leftist commie was selected as President of the flagship university in a conservative state where the overwhelming majority of the population does not identify or support his ideals and the majority of the students are white aka “racist” according to the new Prez. A man who despises everything the university stands for, not to mention despising everything this country stands for. frick him and frick you if you don’t care about that.

You realize they can stop donating without giving an explanation, right?

How many of you will stop donating in some form either through direct support or the purchase of tickets?


This isn’t enough, contact your state representatives and DEMAND the schools funding is cut until they stop their political advocacy.
