Barker graduates from Academy in New York to commission
John Barker of Napa California graduated from the United States Military Academy on June 2 and was commissioned as a second lieutenant. He earned multiple awards including the Pershing Memorial and Allen Award and will attend Ranger training at Fort Benning before studying literature at the University of Edinburgh on a Marshall Scholarship. He is among 40 Americans to receive the scholarship and will study in Scotland. Other Ottawa youths attended Concordia Language Villages to learn world languages, and the Prudential Youth Leadership Institute will be run locally in Wichita for high school students, with sessions at Camp Chippewa and First United Methodist Church. Kristin Hitchcock graduated summa cum laude from William Jewell College. The KU study abroad program remains popular with no cancellations after a Costa Rica incident.

Rutgers players sue over naked wind sprints ruling
Former Rutgers basketball players Earl Johnson Jr and Josh Sankes and team manager Juan Carlos Pla can sue their ex coaches Kevin Bannon and Ted Kowalczyk. The suit stems from nude wind sprints after a 1997 practice following a free throw contest. They allege civil rights violations and say they were misled about when the humiliation would end.
