From RA to film producer: How Residential Life helped me create LSU’s first feature film

When I first became a resident assistant (RA) at LSU, I didn’t expect the experience to shape the biggest project of my college career.

Astrophysicists Strike Gold

Since the big bang, the early universe had hydrogen, helium, and a scant amount of lithium. Later, some heavier elements, including iron, were forged in stars. But one of the biggest mysteries in astrophysics is: How did the first elements heavier than iron, such as gold, get created and distributed throughout the universe? A new answer has come from an unexpected place - magnetars.

Dr. David Guzick Appointed Chief Research Officer for the LSU Enterprise

The LSU Enterprise has announced the appointment of Dr. David Guzick as its new Chief Research Officer, effective May 15, 2025. Dr. Guzick previously served as Chancellor of LSU Health Shreveport and brings a distinguished background in academic medicine, research leadership, and innovation to this newly elevated role.
