Thread: University's Top Priority.....

    Default Re: University's Top Priority.....

    We may be one of the more woke campuses in LA. My son goes to UL, when he went to orientation, it was from 7:30 to 5 on a Saturday. Most of it was lectures on diversity, equality and LGBTQ. Never even got a campus tour. Had to have a friend go back the next day to show him where his classes were.
    Fast forward a year, he gets an invite to join the National Honor Society. Must attend 6 meetings. First one was a lecture on diversity. Second one a lecture on LGBTQ and inclusion. Third one they were told that white men should never be in charge of anything again.
    What the hell does this have to do with honor society??

    He hates UL and will probably never set foot on campus again once he graduates and I know he's not the only one who thinks like this.
    I'm not against any race, gender, etc. Just be happy with yourself and move on, stop with the damn agendas!!
    Makes me sad that this is the same school I attended.

    I didn't mean to step on anybody's toes with this post, just wanted to share some things going on for those that don't have kids at school yet or anymore.
    This is just some examples of what is going on today at schools all over. Combine that with the way I hear students are treated at games and we are chasing off a whole generation of fans!!

    Geaux Cajuns!!!

    So it may be great that we just had one of the largest freshman class in school history, but if we can't these students to be a part of the entire school experience, ie football and basketball, then we will continue to have mediocre attendance. It all starts with the students that will roll over to alumni attending.

    I believe it to be a direct correlation.
    17,000 people watched Brian Mitchell play his last game at Cajun Field.

    Apathy has been an issue for a while.

    This is true. And very sad. People who did not watch the Napier era missed out on the best football played at this university to date.

    I used to think if we brought the big schools in and beat them here that would bring the crowds in. Well maybe for a game, but not even this would last. In two weeks, even if we were to continue to win, the attendance would be back to 15K. Just no clue anymore.

    Maybe UL can rent some heavy machinery from Josh’s newly incorporated rental LLC to get on his good side.
    More money from Washington.

    They’re having Deloitte handle the grant for a cool 2.9 million.

    Election next year.

    Federal money can’t be used to resolve judgements, so this could be real interesting.

    I was there and there wasn’t close to 17K in the stands.

    There’s a huge drop off of UL fans after deer season starts.

    UL researchers could find a cure for apathy, but nobody would show up at the presser.

    Is your son being targeted by the LGBTQ community and the Hindu community for harassment?

    Nope, not at all. Just pointing out what is going on at UL. Thought they would talk about how to get scholarships or something along those lines at a honor society meeting, not wokeness!!
