Katrina uproots students

Universities across the country have opened their doors to the college students displaced by Hurricane Katrina. At least 175 students from universities in New Orleans, mostly from Tulane University, have been trying to enroll in classes at USC, but officials are waiting for directions from Tulane's administration before making any admission acceptances.

"Since the number is so large, we haven't made any decisions as to whether or not we'll allow people to enroll," said Michael L. Jackson, vice president of student affairs.

Vanderbilt University, Iona College, Syracuse University and many other universities are accepting Tulane students, in some cases for free, according to The New York Times.

"We also don't want to steal students away from Tulane, or appear to be poaching students from Tulane," Jackson said. "That's a great school and a great city, and we want them to be able to get back as many of their students as possible. We want to be sensitive to the needs of the individual students and their families, as well as to the institution."

You're a pig Jackson.
