They don't have one by law. Nobody can claim flagship status of the UL system. Lafayette thinks they can, they can't.

This -

The “University of Louisiana” is a system, not a single university. I get in discussions about this a lot. However, if there were going to be a “University of Louisiana”, it probably should be in Monroe, since it has a professional school on its campus (Pharmacy) !
And yes, I went to the old USL. There’s nothing “flagship” about that place !!!!!

I love how people say this even though ULM has less than half the students ULL does.

Especially since ULL has been insisting that sports broadcasters drop the "at Lafayette" part of their name.

I was at NLU/ULM when this foolishness happened. frick Lawson Swearingen.

Since this is the reality and the Board of Regents doesn't want to let it go, we might as well have some fun with it...

ULM and ULL should set their football schedules so that their last regular season game is against each other (call it "The Louisiana Bowl") with the winner being able to claim being THE University of Louisiana for the next year.

Honestly I don’t care that much about the name issue, but everyone wants to compare the two schools and they are just very different.

Are you kidding me? It’s the USL people that are the first to bring it up, it’s like their CrossFit.

Technically it could be any of the following:

The University of Louisiana System has nine member institutions:

Grambling State University
Louisiana Tech University
McNeese State University
Nicholls State University
Northwestern State University
Southeastern Louisiana University
University of Louisiana at Lafayette
University of Louisiana at Monroe
University of New Orleans
