Meet FlightPath Academics, led by ULM graduate Richard Peacock.

FlightPath Academics’ connection to the University of Louisiana System is rooted in a shared commitment to education and student success. For Richard, CEO of FlightPath Academics, that connection is also personal. His mother was a Biology professor at ULM, and he grew up with memories of the university before eventually becoming a student himself.

“I’ve seen its value from both sides, first as a student and now as a partner.”

Today, FlightPath Academics continues that connection by supporting the institutions and students shaping Louisiana’s future. Partnerships like these help expand opportunities, strengthen higher education, and create lasting impact across our state.

Thank you to Richard and the FlightPath Academics team for investing in the future of Louisiana’s students.

Your investment helps Louisiana move forward.

Not everyone values a college education, but everyone benefits from it.
From the nurses caring for our families to the educators shaping future generations and the professionals driving Louisiana's economy, the impact of higher education reaches far beyond our campuses.

University of Louisiana System President and CEO Dr. Rick Gallot recently joined The EdUp Experience Podcast to discuss the value of higher education, the importance of preparing students for the workforce of tomorrow, and the power of working together to expand opportunity across Louisiana.

Hear more about his leadership journey, his vision for the UL System, and why our students remain at the center of everything we do.

Fall is moving quickly, and our campuses are in full stride.

By October, the first-day excitement has given way to the work that defines our universities: learning, teaching, research, service, competition, creativity, and community.

Across the University of Louisiana System, that work is happening every day in eight distinct campus communities, each contributing to the people and places they serve.

Meet Amber, a recent graduate from the University of Louisiana Monroe and a participant in the UL System Global Scholars Program. Through Global Scholars, Amber had the opportunity to travel to Paris, explore a new culture, and present research at Sorbonne Université.

“From the architecture to food and music, every site we visited gave a new layer to our visit. This study abroad opportunity was not only informative but incredibly fun and riveting.”

That’s what investment in students can make possible.

Your support of the UL System Foundation helps create opportunities for students across Louisiana to learn, grow, connect and prepare for what comes next.

Their opportunity becomes Louisiana’s opportunity.

Technology has the power to connect us, empower us, and open new doors, and through our partnership with AT&T, students are helping make sure more members of our communities have the confidence and skills to use it.

Made possible through an AT&T Digital Literacy Grant, this initiative gives students the opportunity to develop their leadership skills while planning and leading digital literacy workshops for older adults and community members.

Using the AT&T Digital Learn Toolkit, students are helping participants build practical technology skills, from navigating smartphones and email to internet safety, video conferencing and more.

It’s more than learning about technology. It’s about building confidence, creating connections and giving back to our communities.

We’re grateful to AT&T for supporting this hands-on learning experience and investing in digital literacy across Louisiana. 💻📱

University of Louisiana System President Rick Gallot used Nelnet payment plans as a student. Now, eight universities and 80,000+ students have access to that same payment flexibility.

What worked at three universities is now expanding across all eight.

After successful implementation at the University of Louisiana Monroe, Grambling State University, and Louisiana Tech University, the University of Louisiana System is expanding Scaffold DataX by K16 Solutions to McNeese State University, Nicholls State University, Northwestern State University, Southeastern Louisiana University, and the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.

The goal is straightforward: more timely, reliable information, less manual reporting, and better tools for the people making decisions across our universities and System.

We’re excited to keep building with K16 Solutions.

Across eight universities, students are preparing to lead, serve, create, and strengthen communities across Louisiana.

This fall, the UL System Foundation is sharing how investment in scholarships, global learning, talent development, and student success can expand what is possible for those students and for our state. When we invest in students, the impact reaches far beyond a campus.

Expand opportunity. Build talent. Strengthen Louisiana. Stay tuned.

Good planning starts with getting the right people around the table.

Today at McNeese State University, System staff, university leaders, and members of the community came together to talk through capital priorities and the spaces that support students, faculty, and the work of the university.

The goal is simple: make sure campus facilities continue to support the people who use them and the work happening there every day.

Thank you to McNeese for hosting us and to everyone who helped shape the conversation.
