Environment/Campus

Having the proper human resources is a major part of a successful university; however, people will not reach their potential in an environment that is not innovative and supportive. To continue construction and renovation projects on and around campus and enhance the living environment, LSU will take the following actions.

Actions

• Increase effectiveness of programs and services that support student, faculty, staff, and administrator success.
• Increase diversity and inclusiveness of LSU, with increased emphasis on recruiting and retaining minority students and faculty and providing a workplace free of intolerance or discrimination.
• Increase the quality of the working, learning, and living environment.
