Legislature eyes tuition with budget tightening
Lawmakers approved a 10 million boost for post secondary operating grants in the regular session while Gov. Sebelius proposed 35 million including a 15 million pay raise for staff. The wrap up must decide the remaining 10 million amid revenue shortfalls and higher social service costs. Regents aim to base tuition on Sebelius funding. May hearings will set final increases. Downey Schmidt urges balancing needs to fund student preparation as economic recovery hinges on educated workforce.

A paid advertisement responds to Professor Hoelflich of the Kansas University School of Law who argued in April 2008 that abortion should be freely available. The writer condemns the claim that a pregnant woman's body alone is subject to government reach and argues both mother and unborn child deserve consideration in constitutional and governmental decisions.
