Capitol Sen Arpke misreads college graduation rates
A Kansas state senator argues private colleges graduate more in four years, but his 71 percent figure uses different baselines than KU’s 32.2 percent. When adjusted to entrants, Kansas overall four year graduation is about 31 percent, close to KU’s rate. Former Lt. Governors Sherrer and Moore condemn Brownback tax cuts as harming jobs and revenue.
