They normally give reasons, like the likelihood of getting a job after a degree.
Louisiana’s job market hasn’t been great but recent news indicates that could be shifting.
US News also puts an emphasis on diversity, difficulty getting in, etc.
A lot of it isn’t strictly how good the school is.

The academic institution only exists for raising capital via tuition to fund the sports programs

Those rankings are nothing but a list of how many transgenders you have. It’s good that LSU dropped on the list. Fewer trannies.

These ranking have never seemed to be a big focus. Me? I would be putting my effort into understanding what it takes to break the Top 100 then Top 50.

They went less woke which will cause you to drop in the woke ratings
My guess is that’s part of it.

so a lot of yall are saying went anti woke....might play a small part but most of this is years of Tate ramping up the BS policies he was putting in place ramping up pell grant students, i feel like such a naive dumb frick for supporting him and his BS.
Rouse is in the middle of turning the tide but it will take a while. Grabbing UNO into the LSU system is going to be huge for the flagship over the next decade.
also if they play their cards right, they can make the arrival of spacex to be a turning point in the university where we really ramp up the Mech eng + aerospace minor and sell that plus the nuclear minor as a way to really ramp up the engineering school.
need to use it on the business side too, ramping up that part of the school and need to bring in someone from wall street investment banking side to revamp the school of business all together. lean into the strengths it has but revamp the rest to serve the IB market and the manufacturing side that is coming to the state.

For being the "premier" destination in Louisiana colleges, their entrance requirements are a joke. I remember when I was on campus and I couldn't believe how it was possible some of the people got in.

Wut? It drops a little more than a year after he leaves and it’s his fault? Never mind the reason for his leaving was Landry maneuvering his cronies into the board of supervisors and increasingly influencing day to day operations?
Yeah, let’s pretend that entrance requirements existed under Tate. “But but he grew enrollment.” With a buncha ruhtards that shouldn’t even be in college let alone the state’s flagship

Three facts
LSU dropped its academic requirements to have more “equity” over the last decade. This absolutely had a direct impact on the educational results
Louisiana GOVERNMENT high schools are horrible while the private/parochial are on par with any region of the country.
Lastly, US News is hardly a serious source. I remember, and you can look it up, that years ago Tulane was caught PAYING US News to increase their rankings.

Good ole boy hiring for leadership
Don't they know we poached a President from McNeese St
That should count for something

This reeks of politics. New Republican Gov and LSU President that rids the school of DEI and all the sudden we drop? BS. IMO LSU is a better school today than it was 2 years ago.

Wasn’t lsu like 120 circa 2012? I remember there being some real positive momentum and that’s all gone

What matters is what Louisianans and LSU fans believe.
