In 1985 the Louisiana Legislature, anticipating an 8(g) settlement, approved a proposed constitutional amendment to dedicate the money and spend most of the interest earnings to improve the quality of education.

This is the first of many milestones, and we recognize it is an important milestone for the project. We have only identified preferred sites to be further analyzed and will continue with additional studies, including the Master Plan and Environmental Analysis. How did you arrive at this site? How did you eliminate other sites? Why were existing airports and ports in cities like Lake Charles, New Orleans not utilized to build on what is already in place? A Tiered analysis process was utilized during the Site Selection Study which included detailed analysis and evaluation of many criteria such as avoidance of population and wetlands. Existing airports such as New Orleans are too small to accommodate the facility and would result in many impacts. Other port cities such as Lake Charles have a low population density that would be inadequate to serve the facility.

Extractions: Number 295 August 1997 THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE QUESTION (Summary Report) Analysis Public Affairs Research Council of Louisiana, Inc. The interest in community colleges is building into a feeding frenzy similar to the expansion of the vo-tech system in the early 1970s. Then, a proposal for 40 schools and three branches grew into 52 campuses before legislators were done. The current community college expansion is occurring piecemeal with no overall plan or objectives. Campuses are being authorized, even where the Board of Regents has issued negative feasibility reports. What is a community college? The term "community college" is commonly used in referring to a variety of two-year, post-secondary education institutions. These include junior colleges, two-year branches of senior universities, comprehensive community colleges and degree-granting technical colleges. (A more limited definition would exclude technical colleges which do not grant an associate of arts degree.) How are community college functions provided in Louisiana? Community college functions are currently provided to varying degrees by a variety of post-secondary public education institutions in Louisiana. These include 13 four-year universities, six two-year colleges and a 44-campus technical college system (formerly called vocational-technical institutes and schools). In addition, there are seven regionally accredited private four-year higher education institutions, one regionally accredited private two-year college and a number of licensed proprietary vocational schools.

The board consists of eleven members, eight of whom are elected from single member districts and three appointed by the Governor from the state at large. The mission of the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education (BESE) is to make policy for, supervise, and control the public elementary and secondary schools, vocational-technical schools, and special schools under its jurisdiction. The board exercises budgetary responsibility for funds appropriated for the schools, including the 8(g) Quality Support Fund. The Administration Program makes policy decisions regarding such items as Minimum Foundation Program, teacher certification, teacher evaluation, continuing education, adoption of school books, and other items appropriate to the governance of Louisiana schools. The Louisiana Quality Education Trust Fund (Permanent Trust Fund) was established in September of 1986 by the Louisiana Legislature. A Permanent Trust Fund was created to receive the bulk of the proceeds from an offshore oil revenue settlement with the federal government. A separate Louisiana Quality Education Support Fund was created in the Louisiana State Treasury to receive and hold the interest earnings from the Trust. Fifty percent of the earnings in the Support Fund are constitutionally mandated to be appropriated by the Legislature and allocated by the Louisiana State Board of Elementary and Secondary (BESE) for the enhancement of elementary, secondary, and vocational-technical education.
