Dear Faculty and Staff:
Events in the national spotlight are a reminder that we, as members of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette community, must always conduct ourselves in ethical and lawful manners. We have a responsibility to hold our institution and our colleagues to the highest standards.
Dear Faculty & Staff:
I am writing today regarding recent media attention that has prompted discussions about the LGBT studies minor that began earlier this year at our university.
Some media outlets have erroneously reported that UL Lafayette is offering a degree program or “major” for LGBT studies. The university offers no such degree program. A major or degree program entails approval from the UL Lafayette administration, the Board of Supervisors for the UL System and the state Board of Regents.
On Monday, the Board of Supervisors of the University of Louisiana System will meet in Baton Rouge. One of the items on its agenda is UL Lafayette’s request for approval to enter into an act of exchange with the City of Lafayette regarding a portion of what’s commonly known as the Horse Farm.
Dear Faculty & Staff,
As we approach the end of another academic year, I would like to take a moment to congratulate you on a successful Spring semester. Most of all, thank you for your dedication to our students and for keeping UL Lafayette moving forward.
Dear Students,
With finals underway, I’d like to take a moment to wish you all the best of luck with your remaining exams and projects. Your hard work, dedication, service, and Ragin’ Cajun spirit have made this an outstanding year at UL Lafayette.
Dear Faculty and Staff,
Welcome back to campus!
The end of last semester was momentous. For the first time we held Commencement ceremonies in two cities. We hosted our customary college ceremonies in Lafayette and one special ceremony, complete with academic regalia, for our football student-athletes preparing for the bowl game in New Orleans. What a weekend! Even weeks later, excitement about UL Lafayette abounds around the state and well beyond. Overall, I expect that 2012 will be a great year for us.
Dear Faculty & Staff,
As we prepare for final exams, I would like to take a moment to congratulate you on another successful semester and thank you for your dedication to our students.
Dear Faculty & Staff:
Recent events surrounding our Parking and Transit Department have resulted in media coverage of our university.
While our campus community is overcoming a loss — one that cannot be measured monetarily — we are also reaffirming our commitment to professionalism and accountability, and taking confident steps forward.
Dear Students, Faculty and Staff:
This is an exciting time for the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. We are surrounded by signs of continuing progress with students, faculty and staff doing exemplary work, athletic success, and enhancements to campus facilities well underway.
Dear Faculty and Staff,
I am pleased to announce that strategic efforts are underway to strengthen our university brand and improve our communication efforts — particularly through the Web.
A new vision for our website and a full redevelopment has begun which will reinforce our brand and create an online marketing and communication tool that will better serve the needs of our past, present, and future students—and the university.
