What happens to a major state university that has fallen from grace, is dramatically underfunded, and has plummeted in national rankings of first-rate colleges throughout the country? You bring in new leadership don’t you? That’s what my home state university, LSU, has done as it tries to recoup, and re-obtain the national standing it held some 50 years ago. But it’s going to be a long climb up. Just what happened to the university that was one called the “Pride of the South?” And how does it get back in the mix of first-rate landmarks of higher education? That’s the new challenge for incoming President Dr. William Tate. And as you can well imagine, I’m quite free with my advice. So check out my new column on what steps he should take to get LSU to pull himself up by the bootstraps. You can read it now by going to the Flashing Red Box above, or by Clicking Here.
