Plans for Gov. Bobby Jindal’s upcoming prayer rally are drawing criticism from the LSU Faculty Senate.

When students and faculty come back from winter break Jindal will host “The Response,” a prayer rally in the PMAC on Saturday, Jan. 24. The University cannot deny the PMAC from any group who pays the rental fee.

“Thus, the University may not have the authority to prevent the use of this facility by its sponsor, the AFA, which, as readers of the newspapers know, has voiced a variety of views that seem inconsistent with the goals and aspirations of a great university,” LSU Faculty Senate President Kevin Cope said in an email.

Cope said “The Response” event conflicts with the University’s values as it is partially paid for by the American Family Association, a religious group opposing LGBT rights and gay marriage. Cope wrote the prayer rally associates the University with intolerance.

Since when has LSU become openly supportive of Homosexual Rights?

When has the support of mental illness and gender identity issues become a standard of the Faculty Senate?

Why doesn’t Jindal really impress us in Louisiana and remove those that support these anti-family professors?
