DUPRE LITTON Tape 1 Mr. Litton graduated from the LSU Law School in 1942, having been president of Phi Delta phi Legal Fraternity, associate editor of Law Review, and the first LSU student named to the Order of the Coif. During a period of thirty-four years, Mr. Litton served in numerous important governmental capacities, including executive counsel to the governor, chairman of the ~ state board of tax appeals, first assistant attorney general, and legal advisor to the legislature. Q. Mr. Litton, your career in state government has closely involved you with the administrations of this state through several governors, dating back to the time of Huey Long. Would youqive us your recollections of the high points in these administrations? A. Thank you, Mrs. Pierce. My recollection of the governors of Louisiana dates back even prior to 1930, which was some 50 years ago. However, in 1930, I entered LSU, and at that time, Huey P. Long was governor. He had been elected in 1928. I recall that on a number of occasions, I played golf at the Westdale Country Club, which is now called Webb Memorial Country Club, I believe, and I saw Huey Long playing golf, accompanied, generally by some twelve to fifteen bodyguards who were on both sides of him, as he putted or drove. Enough has been written about Huey Long that it would probably be superfluous for us here at this time to go into any details concerning him. However, history will undoubtedly recall that Huey Long was one of the most powerful and one of the most brilliant governors in Louisiana history.

  • Louisiana's Successful Enrichment Program and Its Engineering And
    Session 2530 LaPREP: Louisiana’s Successful Enrichment Program and Its Engineering and Discrete Math/Probability and Statistics Components W. Conway Link, Carlos G. Spaht, II Louisiana State University-Shreveport Abstract LaPREP (Louisiana Preparatory Program) is a highly successful enrichment program in engineering and the mathematical sciences for high-ability middle school students. It has been honored by the Mathematical Association of America, the National Science Foundation and the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Foundation. It has been featured in several newspaper articles and has been given wide television coverage. Recently, it was featured on CSPAN, and a PBS video tape describing the program was aired nationally. LaPREP identifies, encourages, an instructs competent middle school students, particularly women and minorities. Its long-term goal is for them to successfully complete a college program, preferably in engineering, math or science. Participants attend seven weeks of intellectually demanding classes and must maintain a 75+ average to remain in the program. Activities include course work in engineering and the mathematical sciences. Lab experience, including “hands-on” research activities, introduces engineering, math, and science as active and participatory processes. Other activities include ACT preparation, study skills and college awareness seminars, and field trips to local businesses and industries. Professionals in the engineering and technological fields, including many minorities, discuss career opportunities. The program has been very successful in identifying and educating high ability middle school students. Evaluations by the participants, their parents, and by local and state officials who have visited LaPREP have been excellent. No current or former participant has dropped out of high school and 84% of exiting participants have indicated that LaPREP has increased their desire to study math and science.
