Kansas House vetoes capstone admissions standard bill
In Kansas the House blocked a plan called qualified admissions for state universities, arguing it would be elitist and risky for students from underfunded schools. Opposition stressed local control loss to the Board of Regents and potential harm to capable students. A final version moved to Senate after heavy debate. The report notes abortion politics, a compromise property tax plan, and a House vote to strengthen drunken driving laws.
