One way to save foreign languages at LSU

Another example of spin

No mention of the Foreign Language Fourteen who were fired, not lost through attrition.  The figures given in the video are based on the Flagship Agenda which was proposed by a chancellor with real vision. According to the objectives then set forth, LSU should have added 150 faculty positions by now.  The reality is that the University has lost 130.82 full time faculty since the flagship agenda was adopted, resulting in a net loss of 280 from the original goal.
