Sound Off for September 2002

Why is Mark Mangino, father of quarterback Tommy Mangino, allowed to be on the sidelines at Lawrence High football games? Fathers of the other players have to sit in the stands.

Friday, September 27

What are the graduation rates for the football programs of all the Big 12 universities?

Thursday, September 26

When will the Laidlaw Transit provide bus passes to families who paid in July and August? There are children riding buses who have not paid. Parents who paid on time are unhappy about this.

Kansas University reports it has sold more than 26,000 season football tickets. Given athletics director Al Bohl's history at Fresno State, is that number believable? It seems awfully high.

Sunday, September 15

Why would the J-W feature two photos of Kathleen Sebelius prominently? Is this fair reporting or is this liberal bias?

It was reported in the J-W, under a photo, that the project to put the statue on top of the state Capitol is costing $614,000. I believe that is incorrect. The figure I've seen is $750,000. Could you please respond to this? I believe this would be of interest to all Kansans.

Tuesday, September 3

I like the new Kansas University Web site, but when I try to search for something, it says, "Bad Request." When will they get that fixed?
