University of Kansas coach Bill Self rejects committing to continuing the Missouri rivalry if the Tigers depart the Big 12. He says the decision should be made for KU's best interests and questions the value of future games if they hurt other schools or loyalties. He praises the history with MU but insists on campus-based scheduling considerations.

Public Forum: Utility taxes ignite city rate fears
Bruce Muzzy of Lawrence argues in the Journal World that removing a city utility tax break will push up rates by about 4.7 million dollars annually. He contends the city will treat utilities like a private firm, justify franchise fees, and shift costs to residents to fund projects including a community center, park, and infrastructure.
