Dardenne says heâs not upset at being passed over for LSU presidentâs job
Commissioner of Administration Jay Dardenne says he is not bitter that the LSU Presidential Search Committee did not name him to the short list of finalists for the universityâs top job.
âThe decision does nothing to dampen my love and support of LSU,â Dardenne says. âIâm an LSU person through and through.â
Dardenne, who received his undergraduate and law degrees from LSU, was one of eight semifinalists to interview for the position earlier this week but, to the surprise of many, was not among the three finalists announced late Wednesday.
