Presidential Statements

Dear friends,

Dear friends,

Today, my family lost its center, and the 91��Ƭ�����߹ۿ� lost its greatest cheerleader.

Dear students, faculty and staff members,

Today opens a new era for health care education at our 91��Ƭ�����߹ۿ�.

Dear students, faculty and staff members,

Let me welcome you to the spring semester with a question: What is an R1 91��Ƭ�����߹ۿ�?

An R1 91��Ƭ�����߹ۿ� is a leading institution. It’s a place of fearless curiosity where knowledge is created, discovered and shared.

Dear students, faculty and staff members,

On Friday, the 91��Ƭ�����߹ۿ� publicly announced the largest single fundraising campaign in its history.

Dear faculty and staff members,

The legislative session that ended in June resulted in the most significant investment in higher education in Louisiana since 2008.

Dear students, faculty and staff members,

Welcome to the Fall 2021 semester and the new academic year!

Dear students, faculty and staff members,

As you may know, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration fully approved the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for people ages 16 and over on Monday.

Dear students, faculty and staff members,

Today, the 91��Ƭ�����߹ۿ� is launching the “Don’t Wait. Vaccinate!” incentives program that rewards students who have taken the COVID-19 vaccine and encourages those who have not to do so.

Dear students, faculty and staff members,

The legislative session that ended earlier this month resulted in the most significant investment in higher education in Louisiana since 2008.
