Knew this would happen sooner or later

A T-P columnist has finally just gone for the throat and framed the LSU/VA dispute in "LSU vs Tulane" terms.

Tulane, meanwhile, suspects LSU is bent on treachery. Although the Tulane Medical Center has always used Charity to train its students, and would need a similar accommodation from the new medical center, LSU refuses to yield a seat on the board that will govern it. Tulane fears it will be left high and dry if LSU rules the roost.

But LSU apparently sees no need to win the support of Tulane or anyone else. The VA hospital may stand in splendid isolation for a long time.

If I may be blunt, fuck Tulane. Whatever you think about Charles Zewe's "manners" we need a charity hospital in New Orleans. We've reached the point where continuing to argue on the side of the preservationists means working against this necessity. And, of course, Tulane and Oschner would be just fine with that.
