Comment on WASC considers outside efforts ‘threatening’ to LSU’s autonomy by Evelyn.
Ricardo Graham really does not have much of a backbone in dealing with any controversial issues. He hopes to retire before any change has to take place in any of the Pacific Union departments that are on the brink of failure.
Obviously LSU is happy to report that WASC is somehow disturbed by the “outside influences” that threaten the institution’s autonomy. If LSU was truly bothered by it, they would suppress that news just like they tried to suppress Educate Truth. They would love to see Educate Truth disappear and that the spotlight leave their actions at LSU.
It will be up to President Wilson to take a decisive action at LSU, or at least confront LSU. The Pacific Union president has no backbone (or does not care about anything other than that his own legacy is not tarnished).
Wisbey does not care.
The LSU Board does not care.
The LSU Religion Department does not care.
The LSU Science Department only cares because the spotlight threatens some jobs.
No – this controversy has been stirring up and literally HUNDREDS of students have expressed concerns over the last TWO DECADES.
The message to LSU and to Ricardo Graham is that this is not going away.
GYC is coming this fall and I guarantee that this will be a big issue there amongst future students.
LSU is not as strong an academic institution as University of California Riverside. If students want a good secular education, there are much better choices. They go to LSU looking for a Christian, Seventh-day Adventist education (or a backdoor feeder for Loma Linda University Med School).
LSU is going to ultimately lose out unless it corrects its course and if it does ultimately have to close its doors, the blame will rest on LSU’s board members and chair who willfully ignored the plight of the institution and its students.
