We are specifically talking about Louisiana schools. Not schools north of I10

Yall think they are going to be hiring engineers from Louisiana? Get ready for a massive influx of people from way out of town

A neighbor kid got mechanical engineering at UF. He then decided to stay the extra year and get Aerospace. He flies f-18's right now, for the USMC.

Already several that LSU can not catch up to

Imagine what it would cost LSU to compete with say MIT, Purdue, or Georgia Tech.

There's gonna be a shite ton more jobs available than just engineering. I have a friend who's son got a tech school degree in electrical instrumentation or similar (not sure of the specifics.) After working in different plants around La and Ms, he took a job with SpaceX and does electrical work on the rocket gantry now.

There's basically a whole new city down there in Texas. The amount of peripheral job opportunities in that area is going to be astronomical.
