A student strike against Aguillard, called "Prayers for Progress", took place on March 24, 2014 at LC's Guinn Auditorium. An anonymous student spokesman said, "Our terms are resignation of the president or dismissal by the board." According to a flier the dissidents vow to "shut down the school by not attending classes until we are heard, and we make steps in the right direction." Aguillard at a forum on March 20 described LC as "an open book regarding our future and our strength and reminding one another it’s not about us, it’s all about Jesus." A reporter for the ''Alexandria Daily Town Talk'' attended the forum for forty-five minutes before being asked to leave. Aguillard claimed that the newspaper "printed false information" in recent articles about the status of the college and its evaluation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.shreveporttimes.com/article/20140321/NEWS0402/303210015/Group-LC-students-seeks-President-Joe-Aguillard-s-removal|title=Leigh Guidry of Gannett News, Group of LC students seeks President Joe Aguillard's removal: 'Prayers for Progress' strike planned for Monday morning|publisher=''Shreveport Times''|accessdate=March 21, 2014}}</ref>

The strike drew few student participants though two LC trustees and several alumni did appear to show their opposition to President Aguillard. About fifty persons gathereed at the auditorium to hold hands, pray, and sing. Organizers blamed the low turnout on fear of retaliation by the college administration. LC had warned students in a notice that a strike would constitute a possible violation of college policies that could result in severe sanctions, such as suspension, denial of a degree, or expulsion, all on the first violation of the code. Media representatives were asked to leave the campus at the time of the gathering.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thetowntalk.com/article/20140324/NEWS01/140324016/Handful-students-alumni-gather-Louisiana-College-strike-|title=Leigh Guidry, Handful of students, alumni gather at Louisiana College for 'strike', March 24, 2014|publisher=''Alexandria Daily Town Talk''|accessdate=March 24, 2014|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://archive.is/20140325035530/http://www.thetowntalk.com/article/20140324/NEWS01/140324016/Handful-students-alumni-gather-Louisiana-College-strike-|archivedate=March 25, 2014|df=}}</ref>
