Legislators, KU experts eye Internet 2 capabilities
KU experts and state agencies showcased Internet 2 uses to the Legislature's Joint Committee on Information Technology including virtual caves and rapid data tracking at KU. Leonard Krishtalka noted a $2 million NSF grant for the Museum of Natural History as a highlight while lawmakers weighed practical returns against investment.
