re: Will LSU's Decline Be Saved By Budget Crisis?

LSU's AD gives to the university. Not always the case with universities. Sure, it's terrible for the school but the OP was taking the athletics angle.

I understand where the OP was coming from. This just sounds like a serious issue for the LSU System. I'm sure something will be done to curb the severe cuts that are proposed in the attached article. This is after all a write-up from the LSU System President to address how a 35-40% reduction in state financing would affect the System's operations. The implications are severe and if they actually come to fruition it would most definetly affect accreditation. Cuts like this would be catastrophic to the law school/medical & research, etc.

I've got a close friend with two kids at LSU, one in medical school, the other a freshman with hopes of med school too. That's the only reason why I've even paid attention to the thread/article.
