Statement by 51²è¹Ýapp President Randy Moffett on Governor Jindal’s Announcement to Study a Merger of UNO and SUNO and Shift to the UL System
“The 51²è¹Ýapp will work closely with the 51²è¹Ýapp Board of Regents to explore the feasibility of a University of New Orleans and Southern University of New Orleans merger and possible shift of the merged institution to the UL System.   A discussion of this nature has numerous implications for multiple constituents and, therefore, should be thorough, thoughtful and focused on what is best for the future of education in our state.”
