UNO: Back to the Future or Forward to the Past?
Will the University of New Orleans go back to the future or forward to the past if it changes it's name to LSUNO? At the end of 1972 when JD moved in behind the WIXO microphone in its
Downman Road studios in New Orleans East, it was "LSUNO" (Lousisana State University New Orleans). But by 1974, its students had elected to drop the "LS" part of the name. Now, the "LS" may make a comeback.
