Sebelius seeks 38 million more for higher education plan

Gov Kathleen Sebelius proposes a 143 million increase in the current funding level, with more than two thirds for public schools and higher education. The budget boosts higher education by about 5 percent and allocates 20 million for operating grants to Regents universities, plus funds for community colleges, the Cancer Center, faculty raises, and other programs. The plan leaves deferred maintenance and building repairs as unresolved issues, with the Regents proposing bonds and tax measures to address them. Statewide, some employee groups object to the 2.5 percent COLA as insufficient while KU prepares for potential raises funded through its operating grant.

KU plans to boost lobbying efforts under new director

Kansas University will expand state and federal lobbying under Keith Yehle, its new director of governmental affairs. The move aims to secure stable funding, advance cancer research, address building maintenance, and improve federal advocacy beyond Lawrence research units. KU will also field student lobbyists in Topeka seeking insure benefits for all regents students, oppose the Taxpayers Bill of Rights, and press for landlord tenant act reforms including automatic lease renewal standards.
