LSU needs to hire Edwin Edwards as a consultant - he’s very familiar with scandals and was excellent at getting away with everything.

I'm confused.

What was the first one about?

From February:

quote:

An investigation is underway by the U.S. Department of Education over how LSU reports and investigates crimes on campus.
The case comes after multiple students raised allegations that LSU mishandled domestic violence and sexual misconduct cases, The Advocate reports.


quote:

According to The Advocate, the Department of Education will conduct a review off-site and LSU is being asked to turn over 26 different types of records from between 2016 and 2020, including LSU Police Department call logs and Greek Life misconduct incident reports

Not a good look.

But what do you expect from a university whose highest-profile figure allows selfies of himself and what looks like hookers to be published online?

All colleges, and universities receiving federal funds must comply with Title IX. Schools that violate the law and refuse to address the problems identified by OCR can lose federal funding or be referred to the U.S. Department of Justice for further action.

Schools can lose their accreditation for a few reasons. For example, if the educational quality is lacking, financial troubles are affecting the school, or total enrollment has significantly fallen, then they will be warned.

USA Today has an article.

The U.S. Department of Education launched its second investigation into Louisiana State University since the school's chronic mishandling of sexual misconduct allegations came to light amid reporting by USA TODAY.

The federal agency's Office for Civil Rights notified the university of the Title IX compliance investigation in a letter dated March 31. The letter, a copy of which was obtained by USA TODAY, says the agency will examine LSU's handling of student complaints of sexual assault and harassment from the 2018-2019 academic year to present.

Title IX is a federal law prohibiting sex-based discrimination in any school that receives federal money.

LSU spokesman Jim Sabourin confirmed receipt of the letter but did not offer a comment.

It is the second such investigation since February, when the Department of Education notified LSU it was conducting a far-reaching probe of the school’s compliance with federal campus safety laws. The agency told LSU at the time it had received complaints alleging “a pattern of conduct that resulted in serious violations of the Clery Act,” a 1990 federal law aimed at transparency around campus crime policy and statistics.

Prediction, LSU will be put on SACS probation.

The SEC and NCAA may also take action and may not let LSU participate in athletics if they lose accreditation or are put on probation.

You're a fricking idiot.
