The resolution urges the Board of Supervisors of Southern University and Agricultural and Mechanical College to take the necessary actions to establish a medical school on its Baton Rouge campus. It highlights the significant interest in creating such a school, emphasizing that it would provide local students with opportunities for high-paying jobs in the medical field and address workforce demands, particularly in underserved communities in Baton Rouge and across Louisiana.

Additionally, the resolution points out that a medical school at Southern University, the only historically Black college and university (HBCU) system in the nation, would attract talented students to the area, fostering a commitment to the community as future medical professionals. It calls for collaboration between the Southern University Board of Supervisors and the Board of Regents to explore the feasibility and need for this educational institution, ultimately aiming to enhance medical education and improve health outcomes in the state.
