2016: LA the new "official" abbreviation for stats, crawls, etc

Separate entity from the university.

true, and ok. but they had no trouble is the point. the principles and methods they used could still be attempted? or at least ask them what they did to see if it can apply or not. otherwise that implies there is a concerted effort specifically aimed against our university, which we have been told wasn't the case?

Has it ever even left the dock?

We probably forgot to put the plug in.

I believe there was an actual email from our SID that went to news media outlets. Which ones specifically, I do not know for sure.

However, I'm now hearing the the solid, aggressive stance our Presidentwas supposedly going to take is now reversing.

But again, that's just what has been rumored.

Yep....rumors

[basinbear]

That last sentence was comical!

Yep....facetious

Ul Lafayette, UL LAF, Louisiana Lafayette, LA Lafayette, take your pick. They're all used every year by someone, somewhere. The more we try to "correct" some people, the more determined those people become to use whatever name it is that they want to use for us.

No matter how many times I refer to us as UL in conversations with my LSU grad next door neighbor, he still calls us ULL. He'll never change. I refer to his beloved Tigers as LA State when the two of us visit, and though he doesn't like that any more than I like him using ULL, he still refuses to use UL. I quit trying to correct him long ago.

Same feelings here. I work in BR tho. I use UL in conversations and most of my co-workers still say ULL to me. Even some family members do it.

They'll prob win, why?

Because it's such as awesome burn to call them Baton Rouge to their face!!

Just like it's still fun to make fun of them for losing their National Championship game when we won our NOLA Bowl game.
