The Advocate's Top Headlines

with Kelly P. Kissel | Metro editor

Today's the deadline for LSU students who weren't complying with the university's coronavirus protocols to take steps to remain on campus. The school identified 78 students, out of 34,000 on campus, who didn't take any steps in the fight against COVID-19. Some of them are taking steps now. We should get a number of the students who will be disenrolled by the end of the day.

The East Baton Rouge Parish school system says its having quality trouble in its virtual academy, which has grown in recent weeks as the pandemic worsened. Charles Lussier has details from last night's meeting.

And we have more from Hayley Arceneaux's trip into space. If there's no freeze-dried jambalaya or gumbo in space, is it worth going? Here's George Morris' story.
