Lippert Bill Aims Dormitories for Kansas Teachers
Topeka Kansas legislators consider Lippert of Bush bill authorizing high school districts to vote bonds to build tenement houses for teachers. The plan targets statewide use but not mandatory, addressing housing shortages that kept teachers from towns like Rush County. University dormitory needs are cited with 1,500 girls, plus 150 at Hays and 200 at Pittsburg and Manhattan and 400 at Emporia Normal. The issue centers on funding division among five state schools and the broader political push for dormitories to improve education and student environments.
