Lamar University
Lamar University Beaumont students are showing concerns after University President Jimmy Simmons announced his official retirement set to take effect at the end 2012. With the 2012 Presidential Elections approaching students are voicing their opinions on the matter of Federal Pell grants and rising tuition costs as a major concern. On January 30, 2008, 78% of Lamar students voted to approve the athletics fee required for football #39;s resurrection. This vote set in motion the football team #39;s return for the 2010 season. The first year squad compiled a respectable 5-6 record but has been on a decline ever since. With a current overall record of 12-21 (4-7 2011) the 2012 season has not been an improvement holding at 3-7 thus far and 0-5 in conference play. Senior Associate Provost and Professor of Sociology Kevin Smith says " We are experiencing the growing pains. Our mission is higher education and we #39;ll always be committed to that."From:talkingmonkeytonyViews:0 0ratingsTime:04:21More inMusic
