UL is struggling to keep students — fees might be the culprit

UL Lafayette has a student retention problem. 

More than a quarter of freshmen do not return for their sophomore year, according to the university’s own academic strategic plan. The cost of going to UL may be to blame, at least partially. 

The main perpetrator of rising costs isn’t tuition or housing, but miscellaneous fees that read like they were pulled from a bowl of higher education alphabet soup. And while UL’s board of supervisors has vowed to make every effort to improve retention, those fees have continued to increase.

Taken together, the 14 fees assessed locally by the university and approved by the University of Louisiana’s System Board of Supervisors, plus those assessed by student government, are higher than tuition for most full-time students.

"After his primary election loss last week, Cassidy returned to Washington saying that he was proud of his work to uphold the Constitution"

Many hours of my day are ruined by traffic

Live in a parish that was once rural, now has 10,000,000,000 people. at hours 3:30-7:30am, I can barely pull out of my road and not get hit by a monster truck going 130mph on the way to work, and between the hours of 2:30-6pm, I cannot use any major highway due to the absurd traffic. at around 5pm, the traffic backs up so long that it sometimes comes to a stop literally a half a mile from the red light.

As housing supply shrinks, Senator Kennedy stays silent on doubling housing subsidies through the $1 billion currently slated for a billionaire's Ballroom construction or $1.7 billion now reserved for insurrectionists. He has a better idea: Just shuffle around the existing $3 billion in subsides.
