House Resolution No. by Representative Mike Johnson commends Dr. Paul Coreil on his retirement as chancellor of Louisiana State University at Alexandria (LSUA). Dr. Coreil, a native of Ville Platte, Louisiana, has had a distinguished career, beginning as the first LSU Ag Center extension agent in Cameron Parish and later rising to vice chancellor and director of the Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service. His leadership in the LSU Ag Center and involvement with Louisiana 4-H have earned him multiple Hall of Fame recognitions.

Under Dr. Coreil's tenure as chancellor, LSUA has seen significant growth in enrollment, the construction of state-of-the-art facilities, and a positive impact on the local economy. He has also overseen the expansion of the university's athletic programs, leading to numerous conference championships. As he concludes nearly four decades of service on July 1, 2026, the resolution expresses gratitude for his contributions to the LSU System and the citizens of Louisiana.
