Barrett-Gonzalez argues KU invention agreement limits faculty independence by designating university ownership of inventions created with university resources and time. The AAUP notes a national trend toward control, while KU engineering faculty push to rewrite the clause.
Law experts note protections for sexual orientation are absent in Kansas statute, with Lawrence as an exception where discrimination based on orientation is illegal. The ongoing debate centers on a pre emptive religious freedoms bill tied to marriage and potential broad discrimination implications if enacted, even as committee hearings continue.
Lawrence maintains a unique anti discrimination ordinance says Thomas Witt executive director of Equality Kansas. Witt notes only a few Kansas cities have any sexual orientation or gender identity clauses with limited or unenforceable scope. Topeka has a weak version not enforceable by the Human Relations Commission. Measures in Manhattan Hutchinson and Salina have been reversed.
LBJ libraries and the Dole Institute host lectures on first ladies while Johnson discusses the 50th anniversary of his Great Society. The interview recalls the May 7, 1964 Ohio University speech and outlines landmark reforms including Civil Rights Act 1964, Voting Rights Act 1965, Medicare and Medicaid, and Head Start among broad federal education and welfare initiatives.
Presidential historian Richard Norton Smith notes that Medicare and Great Society programs helped reduce poverty, yet the Vietnam War and perceived government overreach fueled a lasting conservative backlash. He compares Johnson’s era with Wilson’s and warns the complex legacy will keep historians busy.
