LSU Goes to Washington

LSU President Dr. F. King Alexander and leaders from LSU campuses are in Washington, DC this week for LSU Day at the Capitol. They are meeting with members of the Louisiana congressional delegation.

Among the topics being discussed are the importance of the Higher Education Reauthorization Act, Medicaid expansion and NIH research funding.

The annual visit affords an opportunity to share information and concerns with Louisiana's federal elected officials, as well as provide data and resources that will help them better understand the value LSU campuses bring to the state and nation, as well as the issues affecting them.
