Yeah..., Arkansas has never had players drafted, award winners, make All-American or All-SEC teams.

Glad to hear that Arkansas is doing well in supporting the reason we have schools in the first place: higher education

True.
People in Louisiana are poor.

The Forever LSU campaign exceeded its $750 million fundraising goal, raising $787 million by the end of October.

Moore said 24,000 alumni, 6,500 corporations, 26,000 "friends of LSU" and 1,300 faculty gave to the campaign.

So in 5 years, LSU raised $780 million or roughly $156 million per year.
Must have been all of our rich alumni in Arkansas.

That's called a fundraising campaign.
We raised over $1 billion in our last organized fundraising push.

These numbers must be wrong.
Is the University of Arkansas endowment almost three times that of LSU?
Wikipedia lies....

Is this an endowment number? Why include athletic donations in that?

Sounds about right.
As of January 2011 (per the Reveille), our endowment was around $289 million.
We would have a much larger endowment but we didn't invest our royalty revenues like they did in Texas (oil money built a huge endowment for UT) and much of our oil is offshore now and for decades we didn't get much in the way of royalties on federal offshore leases.
It is what it is.
Piggie fap thread.

Yeah our endowment and overall higher education funding structure in Louisiana is horrible for a bunch of ridiculous political reasons.

That's pretty good. I am glad everyone's universities are raising money to build research facilities and support students.
I remember when I was at A&M, there was a fundraising campaign from 2000-06 for "Vision 2020" . They raised 1.5 billion. There has been a boom of building at A&M since then.

That's actually one of the main reasons our endowment is bigger, we keep it as much out of the state legislator's hands as we can. Arkansas state politics is corrupt, but Louisiana's is just downright retarded. Nothing scares private investment away faster than politicians trying to vulture power.
/serious
lol u poor

It's always good to see these kinds of things. And I can attest to all that construction at A&M. That entire area looks different from what I saw 1 years ago.
