NEW ORLEANS - The LSU Board of Supervisors has approved an agreement regarding the governance of the proposed new LSU Academic Medical Center in New Orleans.

The agreement changes the number of seats LSU holds on the board of directors for the new hospital from five to four, and increases the number of non-permanent board members from three to four.

The Tulane board of trustees was scheduled to vote on it later tonight.

Gov. Bobby Jindal plans to hold a news conference Friday to talk more about the hospital and its design.
