Because he trusted his wife, not the surpent. Why did the surpent approach Eve instead of Adam? It wasn’t a random decision.
Plus, you have to give him the benefit of the doubt since she was the first woman and there was no track record on decision making.

This is the truth. Our son has had a few manual labor type jobs throughout high school, and his co-workers are constantly telling him to make sure he gets an education so he doesn't wind up like them.
Spending all day hauling stuff outside or doing landscaping in the Louisiana summer makes school seem like a cake walk.

Which is why it’s his sin.

so i will agree i dont like the direction the school is heading with the demographics at 25% but lets not act like you cant go to LSU, go into stem, join a frat or Sorority and have a normal southern SEC school experience and completely anti ghetto experience.

so what does she plan to major in and how does she plan to pay for this?

I have two more at LSU - they are also STEM majors - but they didn’t want to buy friends & join a frat, but you can’t ignore the constant ghetto in your face - and maybe that’s why they didn’t want to join a fraternity because they want to spend the least time on campus as possible he
I don’t think my younger 3 will go to LSU. My 4th child is a sophomore in high school and I will probably direct him elsewhere.

Sorry. Yeah, she wouldnt have to pay.
She's destined to be a lawyer, regardless of her major. She's just built that way.

But the husband and I have college degrees, so my kids didn’t qualify for like 90% of those types of scholarships
They had to get them the old fashioned way

yea my oldest is only a freshman and I dont know where I will help him go to.
but in general you absolutely can get away from ghetto behavior. not that hard.
are you going to have to be around some undesirables but every black on campus isnt ghetto trash. over 40% of blacks are gone after 2 years so most of the ghetto is gone quickly.
the amount of ghetto one will see while majoring in engineering is minimum.
the amount of ghetto you will see being in Greek life is minimal also
and im not saying i would want my kids to go there. A lot of factors that play into it but LSU can still provide a great college experience and a great degree with great job prospects if you want to live in LA or Texas.
Other schools can give parts of that, but LSU is really the only school in the state that can provide all options.
now i would prolly prefer my kids go out of state all things being equal money wise so that they have a new experience. I finished at McNeese and certainly want them to get out of LC and experience life but also not going to go crazy on the debt either no matter where it is and you have to look at overall ROI.

My on campus experience was rather at the fraternity house of park in the lot in front of the business college and walk in. I NEVER saw any of that ghetto shite

Eve was deceived. Then Adam sinned.

You really don’t, and I know you will try to argue but I live in the city of BR - three kids at LSU (well, one recent grad) - and it is HARD to get away from the constant minority pushing.
My family is not the type for Greek life - so I cannot speak for that. I told my kids they could rush but they didn’t want to.
