Moody Business Student Update

Dear Moody College of Business Students,

Congratulations! You have completed the second week of remote learning. I hope that you are starting to feel more settled.

On Monday, March 23, all Moody College of Business employees departed campus to begin working remotely per the stay-at-home order of Governor John Bel Edwards. The University remains operational to provide continuing student services. Even though we have left our Moody Hall offices, we have not left you. Your health, emotional well-being, and academic progress remain our top priorities. All of our faculty and staff are available to you via email, phone, and other technologies.

Contact Us

Our office staff will continue to maintain regular University hours Monday-Thursday (7:30 am-11:45 am and 12:30-5 pm) and Friday (7:30 am-12:30 pm), excluding holidays. Contact your professors directly for their remote office hours and availability to “meet” virtually. E-mail and phone contact information for our department and program offices is available at https://business.louisiana.edu/about-us/contact-us. Our faculty and staff directory is available at https://business.louisiana.edu/faculty-staff/faculty-staff-directory.

General information is available at https://business.louisiana.edu/current-students/advising. 

Advising for 100% online BSBA in Management, MBA, and MS Accounting students continues as normal.
