Drive around campus any Monday to Friday and you’ll see the problem. Since the early 2000s when I graduated from LSU, the student makeup has become more and more ghetto. Every year I see more thugs on campus than the previous year. And before you call me a racist, which I am not, know that I am simply telling you what I see on campus every day - and that is a bunch of kids dressed like Tupac. Campus isn’t nearly as safe as it used to be and LSU is not what it used to be. I love LSU, but sadly I hope my kids go elsewhere for college.

Tate started all this with his DEI admissions crap, which put race above merit. LSU does not pursue local academic talent when that talent is white. My neighbor’s son had a 4.0 GPA at Catholic with a 34 on his ACT and the family couldn’t even get LSU admissions to call them back, literally zero interest from LSU. He’s currently at Bama on a free ride. I guarantee you LSU is still taking kids with ACT scores of 21 in the name of diversity. LSU’s problems are bigger than most of you realize.

In short, Tate trashed LSU. That is why some people don’t like him.

It’s far worse than insider trading. They are hand picking the winners and losers

It will all depend on how much dirt will have to be moved/brought in. Without seeing it, would be almost impossible to guesstimate. Your best bet is to get several quotes from different contractors specializing in ponds. Not sure that helps because you probably already knew all that, but best of luck in your expansion

What “school board that gives us one of the best schools in the nation” do you speak of? I live in BR and must have missed that one lol.

If you believe BR’s school board is competent in any way shape or form, you must have really low standards. Did you send your kids to public school here? If so, you’re a braver man than I

You are right and you make excellent points. The neutrality issue is what concerns me. I’m not too sure I want a bunch of public school teachers teaching my kids what it means to be a Christian anyway since it seems like they themselves don’t always know it.

I think they should teach all the religions, focus on the largest, especially Islam. They should strictly teach what each religion espouses and leave it at that. If nothing else, Americans need to learn the truth that Islam is a political and military movement based on conquering as much as it is a religious movement.

I agree. My father in law has a Vacmaster VP230 chamber sealer. I know it’s expensive but he and I both think it was worth every penny. Can you find chamber type vacuum sealers for $200 though?

It’d take less than an hour to arrest 30 illegals if they bothered with checking the lawn care and landscaping companies in Baton Rouge

I have a pair whose main tree is in my backyard in BR. It’s a perfect vantage point for them to survey prey. I like to practice casting my rods and reels in the backyard, and the kites have made that difficult, thinking my baits are food items.

My father in law swears that there is no better preventative action for seasickness than drinking ginger ale before you go out. The guy he heard it from basically lives offshore so he would know. I would be skeptical but 99% of what he says ends up being fact.

People like you are why I frequent this site. Thank you!

I disagree entirely. The Democrats’ only hope is cheating and election fraud. Their message is so bad, they cannot fairly win with it and they know it. I will say it again, Trump has a winning issue with the SAVE Act. That’s something that people can get behind, much unlike the Dems’ pushing for men to be women.

This is no different than what Democrats do every single time they have control of anything. The only difference is that their reps fall in line with the quickness. Too bad most of the Rs are actually Ds
