Saying goodbye to the University of New Orleans - Jarvis DeBerry, Times-Picayune

We are losing the University of New Orleans. The official word may be that the university is undergoing a restructuring, that it is being trimmed a little bit here and there. But don't be fooled. We are losing the University of New Orleans, and when and if that loss becomes complete, New Orleans will be the poorer for it. The campus on Lake Pontchartrain has slightly more than half the students it had the semester Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast. Programs have already been cut. Faculty and staff have already been let go. Over and over again. http://www.nola.com/education/index.ssf/2014/12/saying_goodbye_to_the_universi.html
