ALT We have been notified that two LSU seniors, Giselle and Jean-Luc Doucet -- siblings who were both scheduled to graduate tomorrow -- were killed in a private plane crash yesterday, along with their father. We are devastated to hear this news, and our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Doucet family and all those close to them. This is heartbreaking for the LSU community, but especially for those who know and love these two students, and those who were expecting to share graduation with them. We will honor both students at their respective commencement ceremonies, and we will do everything possible to help and support those in our community who are impacted by this tragedy. Any member of the LSU family who is in need of emotional support during this difficult time can contact the Student Health Centerβs Mental Health Service at 225-578-8774 for counseling services. We urge anyone who needs help processing this loss to reach out for assistance.

ALT Once again, we are witnessing people across our country demand social change and equal justice in the wake of horrifying and heartbreaking events. As an educator and law professor, I strongly believe that any injustice or violation of the equal protection of law committed by anyone degrades everyone as well as the very foundations of our democracy.
On behalf of LSU, I want to assure you that your university is unwavering in our commitment to equality and justice β and we will always strive to cultivate a diverse, inclusive, compassionate and welcoming campus community that respects the rights and voices of all our students, staff, faculty and guests.

LSU Interim President
