Education Bill Should Be Passed In Louisiana
Three bills aim to coordinate higher education in Louisiana, with Senate Bill 387 by Jules Mollere the only one deemed worth passage. It would establish a constitutional coordinating board with a professional staff, not a super board. The Mollere plan mirrors successful models in 17 of 19 states since 1955, reducing college duplication and illogical expansions. General Middleton supports Mollere, citing wartime leadership credibility.
