Description
This episode of the series “Louisiana Public Square” from December 16, 2009, features a look back at some of the show’s memorable moments from the 2009 season. The topics include: an in-depth look at how procedures, policies and planning for hurricanes have changed since Katrina, Rita and Gustav (from “Hurricane! Lessons Learned); the state’s efforts to move the economy forward (from “Economic Development”); how to reduce the large number of Louisiana high school dropouts (from “Louisiana’s Dropout Problem”); and the growing influence of online social media sites (from “The Power of Social Networking”).Host: Beth CourtneyHost: Craig Freeman
