Sebelius vetoes ban on obscene videos in KU course
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius vetoed a budget proviso penalizing the University of Kansas for Professor Dennis Dailey's use of noncommercial, clinical sex videos in a long running human sexuality class. The measure, in a $10 billion bill, would deny funds to any public department showing or buying obscene videos for undergrad courses. Dailey, teaching in the School of Social Welfare since 1969, faced student-count figures near 10,000. Wagle's complaint spurred questions about material and language. Sebelius cited academic freedom and said university procedures cover complaints, while the Legislature could override the veto in April.
