From the University of Louisiana at Lafayette:

Planning is underway for the establishment of the Kathleen Babineaux Blanco Public Policy Center at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Blanco is a UL Lafayette alumna and the only woman to serve as Louisiana governor. The policy center and archive will house Blanco’s gubernatorial papers. It also will contribute interdisciplinary, independent research to a host of public policy areas, including criminal justice reform, poverty and economic opportunity, governmental ethics, and education.

Read the rest of the announcement.

The Blanco Public Policy Center is a partnership between Edith Garland Dupré Library and the College of Liberal Arts. There are plans to open the center in 2019 in Dupré Library. The University will celebrate the center’s launch and honor Blanco’s career with two events on Sept. 21, 2018.
