The LSU Press is Going Broke

The Louisiana State University Press is close to becoming a victim of the recession (and of America's falling out with literature).  The prestigious publishing house puts out the Southern Review, perhaps the most luminous literary journal in the South, and its demise would be a big blow to American letters.  Maybe the school could divert some of the funds it has allocated for the bribing of high school football recruits.  The price of a couple Escalades should keep the LSUP ship afloat.  Don't think it'll happen?  Yeah, you're probably right.
