If alumni, do current events affect your feelings toward LSU?Are you more or less likely to donate?

If a parent of a current student, what do you and your child think of all this. If a parent of a prospective student, are you more or less likely to encourage him/her to apply?

I’m a student. If you’re talking about the whole Middleton thing, I don’t really care. Doesn’t give a frick to me. It’s the worst building on campus by far anyway

I am an alumni and my perception of how things are going on campus absolutely affect how much I donate.

I'm an alumnus and have three prospective students. This is obviously disheartening and I have thought about encouraging them to look into other options. But at the same time conservatives should not give up on theses institutions because that is exactly what the left wants us to do.

There are still conservatives at the most liberal of Ivy League Schools learning how to fight.

I don't know if the College Republicans or similar organizations can accept donations, but maybe that is an option instead of giving money directly to the University or TAFF. There is also the Voeglin Institute that looks like you can donate to directly. If you are unfamiliar with Eric Voeglin, as a conservative you should be.

I have never donated anything to where I graduated from and never will.

My out of state tuition was my donation.

I'm am alumni and I've donated before.

Am less likely to donate any further the more liberal policies are pushed at LSU.

I also have 2 kids who will be attending college and I'm concerned with the trend at LSU toward progressive policy.

Hope this answers your questions.

I used to donate to my college and TAF. Stopped about 4 years ago. LSU reinforces that decision regularly. I care less about LSU right now than I ever have.

Donating money to a government supported institution is moronic. I give the minimum I can to get my football tickets.

I couldn’t change my kids mind if I tried. She is set on LSU and has an iron constitution about her beliefs. She would likely tell a lib to go frick themselves real fast. But she has always wanted to be a tiger. Plus she has done duel enrollment with LSU and her high school. I didn’t pay for those classes for nothing.
