[CED/CD/EAT] Kansas and Iowa legislative actions with universities

[Silvertooth, Jeffrey C - (silverto)]

FYI....

Kansas and Iowa legislatures are demanding universities return to work full-time and have threatened pulling state funding.

On March 11, the House Appropriations Committee had a hearing on the proviso directing the universities to return tuition dollars for any day no class was held or for classes conducted virtually. President Myers along with the chancellor and presidents of the state universities, and the president and CEO of the Kansas Board of Regents testified before the committee.
