Resolutions of the Faculty of Louisiana State Seminary, April 1860

RESOLVED: that the Academic Board respectfully ask the Board of Supervisors to define the true nature of “The Seminary of Learning and Military Academy,” according to the recent act of the legislature — whether it is merely a military institute, designed for the promotion of military and scientific knowledge, or shall the literary department be put on an equality with the scientific, with the military department added only for the sake of discipline and order?

RESOLVED: that the Academic Board respectfully request the Board of Supervisors to define, in general terms, under the recent law of the legislature, the relations and duties which exist between the superintendent and other professors.
