"For 200 years, Centenary College has helped shape Louisiana's leaders, strengthened the Shreveport-Bossier community, and upheld the best traditions of higher education. This bicentennial is a testament to the college's resilience, academic excellence, and lasting impact on our state. I'm proud to see the Senate pass my resolution honoring this great institution," said Kennedy.
