Higher education governance panel gains cautious support in Kansas
Kansas lawmakers on a House Select Committee on Higher Education press to reorganize governance amid long standing skepticism. Rep. Ed McKechnie and Rep. Adkins report growing belief the effort should proceed this year, with a plan draft anticipated by late February and a state tour to gather input before a bill by Feb. 25. The panel faces past failed reforms but aims to unify the Kansas Board of Regents and the State Board of Education under a new framework.
