Scott Cowen, President of Tulane University

Scott Cowen is the President of Tulane University. In this interview Scott recalls how the University was on life support for the first two months following Hurricane Katrina.To ensure the University's health, he borrowed the neccesary funds to move forward immediately rather than wait for Federal assistance or insurance money. Scott is encouraged by the appointment of Dr. Blakely as Katrina recovery czar, the rejuvenation of the New Orleans Redevelopment Authority, and the almost entirely new, New Orleans City Council.
