<p>Just to clear things up, I’m not saying LSU students don’t accomplish things, they definitely do. I was complaining that the admissions office wasn’t doing enough to get the word about good students out.</p>
<p>I actually never signed up for a mailing list. When I applied the admissions office got my email and put me on some sort of list, because I got emails from them. I shouldn’t have to look around LSU’s site and sign up for a mailing list to hear about the good students. Everywhere else I applied, I was automatically added to a general mailing list that included accomplishments in both academics and athletics.</p>
<p>I do not hate LSU sports, and in my post, acknowledged the revenue they bring in. I think athletics are a very valuable endeavor. I just get a little perturbed sometimes when the achievements of athletes overshadow those of scholars.</p>
