KU leaders urged the Regents to ease admission standards by lowering the GPA required for guaranteed admission as ACT and SAT testing remained hampered by the pandemic. Data showed students with GPA below 2.5 and ACT under 24 fared poorly, with only 25 percent graduating in six years, prompting a shift to remain competitive with Missouri Arkansas and Iowa and to consider individual applications beyond GPA or ACT scores. Regents weighed mixed comments on the plan while upholding selective practices and recognizing English language learners and four-year GPA considerations.
KU received 22 million dollars in federal funding to create an 80,000 square foot national security research center at West Campus, part of the Innovation Park. The project aims to host researchers in cybersecurity, radar tech, and AI, creating about 250 jobs and spurring nearby corporate interest. The Office of National Defense Initiatives will also oversee EU ROTC programs, with potential Panasonic collaboration tied to battery research nearby.
