Louisiana State University in Shreveport (LSUS) is a branch of the Louisiana State University System in Shreveport, Louisiana. Opened in 1967, LSUS is located in southeast Shreveport on a campus of 4200 students.
LSUS grants undergraduate and graduate degrees at the masters and specialist degree levels. It is the only public four-year university in the Shreveport metro area. The school includes the Colleges of Business, Liberal Arts, Sciences, and Education and Human Development.
The school is a commuter school with no on-campus dormitories. The university does, however, have its own housing in the form of apartments located at the northwestern edge of the campus.
LSUS also offers night courses. Lloyd E. Lenard (1922-2008), a Shreveport businessman, Caddo Parish commissioner, and author, taught finance and insurance at LSUS on an adjunct basis.
LSUS operates Red River Radio, a public radio network based in Shreveport.
History
After nine years as a two-year institution, LSUS was advanced to four-year status in 1976 through the efforts of state Senator Don W. Williamson of Shreveport and state Representative Joe Henry Cooper of Mansfield, the seat of De Soto Parish.
