Resolution agreed to in Senate without amendment and with a preamble by Unanimous Consent. (consideration: CR S90; text: CR 12/11/2025 S8677)
This Senate resolution honors Centenary College of Louisiana as it marks its 200th anniversary. The bill traces the school's history from its 1825 founding as the College of Louisiana, through its 1845 merger with Centenary College to form the current institution, its relocation to Shreveport in 1908, and its growth into a nationally recognized liberal arts college. It formally commends the college for its long-standing contributions to education in Louisiana and its economic and cultural impact on the Shreveport-Bossier region. The resolution carries no funding or regulatory effect and simply expresses the Senate's recognition and goodwill. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to send official copies of the resolution to the college's president, provost, and its Bicentennial Planning Committee. Sponsored by Senators Kennedy and Cassidy, the measure was introduced, discharged from committee, and agreed to in early January 2026.
