In Cajun country, we’ll make you feel right at home - whether you prefer to dance at a festival or catch a sunset over the cypress trees. With Zydeco rhythms, Cajun & Creole flavors, Louisiana scenery and Southern hospitality you’ll agree – there’s no place like Lafayette. Lafayette Convention & Visitors Commission www.lafayette.travel 337.232.3737 800.346.1958 E I've gotten hundreds of colorful PostIt® notes from Dr. Ray Authement since I began working at UL Lafayette in 1993. He attaches them to magazines he receives from other universities and forwards to me. I took the first few dozen for granted; they all looked alike. One day, I noticed a PostIt® note that was different. Instead of “FYI,” he had written something like, “Page 20. Article is well done.” Of course, I immediately flipped to that page and studied it. EDITOR’S NOT It took quite a few more “FYIs” and a couple more “See inside” messages to grasp what should have been obvious to me from the start: He apparently looks through all of the magazines before sending them along. I was amazed because of his already heavy workload. I’ve thought about those PostIt® notes a lot since Doc announced in late April that he plans to retire. It occurred to me that they reveal quite a bit about him and how he conducts busi- ness at the university. They are consistent, direct and efficient. They tell me that he has done his homework, that it’s important to know what other uni- versities are doing. Their subtler message is: If something is impor- tant, find the time to pay attention to it and share it with others. His little handwritten notes are also a refreshing personal touch in these days of e-mail and text messages. Believe it or not, we have not told Dr. Authement that this entire issue of La Louisiane is devoted to what he has done for the university. We were afraid he would ask us not to pay so much attention to him. But Dr. Authement’s leadership has positively influenced every aspect of the university and countless lives. We believe readers will look at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette in a different way after reading about the remarkable journey he What’s your sign? began long before becoming its president. Quite frankly, I expect to be criticized by some Academy Sports and Outdoors LIDS Teche Drugs and Gifts readers for dedicating an entire issue of La Louisiane to one topic. 4232 Ambassador Caffery Acadiana Mall / 5725 Johnston Street 505 Jefferson Street But a few years ago, someone asked Doc what advice he would www.LIDS.com offer students. “When faced with a tough decision, do what you Albertsonʼs University Bookstore 2678 Johnston Street Louisiana Hot Stuff 600 McKinley know in your heart is right.

I smiled because I thought he was joking. “I’m not sure I want to be 120 years old,” I replied, flippantly. “You’re assuming that you would be 120 and have some sort of impairment.

He went on to say that he believes it might be possible to live much longer than we can imagine right now. The timing of our conversation was apropos, because I’ve been thinking about the passage of time a lot as we have prepared this issue. An article about the new Ernest J. Gaines Center, for instance, reminded me that the first cover story I wrote for La Louisiane, in Fall 1993, was about Ernest Gaines. He told me that he would always be loyal to the university because of the opportunity it had given him to concentrate on his writing. Like one of the honorable characters in his novels, he has kept his word.

  • 2007 Annual Report
    Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium 2006-2007 Annual Report Our Mission “To increase society’s awareness of the environmental, economic and cultural value of Louisiana’s coastal and marine environments by conducting research and education programs directly relevant to Louisiana’s needs in marine science and coastal resources and serving as a facility for all Louisiana schools with inter- ests in marine research and education.” Message from the Director Two fiscal years at the helm. The first started with Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, their devastation and sub- sequent recovery. The second continued with hurricane recovery and a State of Louisiana budget left reeling from business and financial losses across the southern part of the state. Coastal natural resources, business and financial infrastructure, communities and individuals still bear the scars of these storms. Several of LUM- CON’s structural wounds still require mending. Recovery has been slow but is now showing visible improve- ments in the coastal zone and in the state’s finances. And, the need for thoughtful, balanced and effective coastal restoration, flood control, and social support remains a foremost concern for Louisiana. LUMCON continues to focus its education and research programs on valuable coastal resources, dissemination of accu- mulated knowledge of coastal processes, and improved social literacy of the environmental, economic and cultural value of Louisiana’s coastal and marine environments. The Woody J. DeFelice Marine Center in Co- codrie, the Fourchon field camp, the research vessels and boats, the laboratories and educational facilities, and the LUMCON staff remain critical components for reaching these goals. LUMCON has much to offer locally, nationally and globally for marine science and education.

This guide contains an introduction, a description of the current Board of Regents' general education requirements, listings of Louisiana's public higher education institutions, which includes Louisiana's public two-year and four-year colleges and universities, and the general education articulation matrix. The required general education coursework for baccalaureate degree program includes a total of 39 hours in English, mathematics, computer literacy, natural sciences, arts, humanities, and social sciences. Information is included on transfer contacts, financial aid office contacts, housing contacts (if available), 1999-2000 annual tuition rates, general guidelines for transfer students, and determination of degree credit and course equivalencies for transfer courses.(VWC) Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made from the original document.
