  • Representatives Honor Roll 12
    Table of Contents Comments 3-4 Syllabus 5 Legislation That Mattered 6-7 Senate Honor Roll 8-9 Senate Report Card 10-11 Representatives Honor Roll 12 Representatives Report Card 13-17 Dear Supporters, The 2017 Louisiana Legislative Session was a victory for higher education in our state. Our leaders made many difficult choices to ensure that students remained a priority. Higher education did not take a cut in funding and remained stable, and most importantly, the TOPS floor was reset and fully funded. This session has restored my hope and trust in our leaders. They have proven themselves as friends to students, and for that we are grateful. However, the last decade has not been so friendly to higher education. According to the State Higher Education Executive Officers’ annual report, Louisiana has led the country in percent reduction of public funding per FTE at -33.1%, from 2011-2016. Last year culminated with cuts to TOPS, to the alarm of students and the public. Years of budget cuts directly affected our institutional quality and transferred costs to students; this cut to TOPS was a direct cut to our students and was devastating for many. Our lawmakers went back on their promise to Louisiana’s best students to provide them with an invaluable postsecondary educational experience. In 2015, after eight years of constant cuts and budget reductions, LSU Student Government decided to launch this annual Higher Education Report Card to hold legislators accountable to us, the students. The mission of the Report Card remains clear: to hold our leaders accountable for higher education policy in the most objective way possible.
