Colleges will have to fully embrace online education to keep up with students’ changing tastes or be left behind, the head of the LSU System told the Press Club of Baton Rouge on Monday. Interim System President William Jenkins also said the university’s hospital system is in the uncomfortable position of having to court private partners to stay afloat at a time when state funding for uninsured care has been slashed. The LSU System includes the $3.5 billion network of four university campuses, a law school, two medical schools, 10 hospitals and dozens of outpatient medical clinics across Louisiana. Roughly 70 percent of Louisiana’s doctors were trained in the LSU system.
