Faculty Senate President Kevin Cope talks with The Daily Reveille in his office May 31.
The Daily Reveille: With the school year completed and the summer term beginning, what are some issues that the Faculty Senate is concerned about?
Kevin Cope: “The number one issue that the Faculty Senate is concerned about is the budget and financing of the University. Another problem that presents itself is starting the searches for the various executive positions that have not been filled or that may come open in forthcoming years. … A third matter is looking forward to getting started with a new provost and seeing what will happen with the chancellor’s office and making sure that if there is a search for another chancellor it follows procedure. The last item is that as we look to the forthcoming year and to some probable cuts in higher education, reaching out to the other campuses around the state and re-establishing LSU as a leader and not a competitor among Louisiana universities.”
