Chalmers Backs Stinson on KU Student Ticket Prices
Kansas University Chancellor Laurence Chalmers said a $1.50 rise in student football season tickets will stand if federal officials find it not covered by the wage price freeze. The dispute involved the Student Athletic Seating Board and athletic director Wade Stinson over income sources and ticket pricing. Miller and the board argued most increases fall under the freeze, while Chalmers seeks federal clarification before finalizing policy.
