Attorney General Jeff Landry blasted the LSU Faculty Senate’s request that students be required to get a COVID-19 vaccine to attend classes in the fall. LSU Interim President Thomas Galligan said he will once again “review” the request, and but Landry said there’s nothing to review and the mandate would be illegal.
