School board studies 'critical race theory' in work on equity issues
Your speaking from ignorance. Kids don't get scholarships based on their skin color. They get them based on a multitude of criteria. The most being their chances of succeeding from the institution. When white guy doesn't get in, he blames the school's minority enrollment goals. Bottom line, whites and minorities don't go to school on the same overall level; THAT is the basis of the article,

School board studies 'critical race theory' in work on equity issues
Are you serious? Then you are speaking from an ignorant awareness of race. Pick any stat and you will get your answer. Just read, research and then you can make an informed decision/conversation.

Planning commission votes to defer decision on Menards for one month
I agree, this planning commission is useless. Too much of the local developers pushing businesses where they don't want to go, and where the local developer is able to cash in.
Lowe's never came back and now we are going to lose Menards. All in the name of "go where we tell you to go"....to the Schwada property.

Gov. Brownback signs Kansas drug test law for aid recipients
Amen, Amen I say to You. Beware of the false prophet. And shame to all those who follow the governor claiming its their job to enforce such policies.

Taking stock of Tuesday's City Commission election and wondering how school bond and recreation center issues will affect the general election
The Lawrence of 1994 is not the same Lawrence of 2013. But you do have reason to worry. The last thing the public wants to approve is both the Rec center and the school bonds.
So Commissioners, Line Up behind the Rec Center and see if the public chooses basketball over school buildings!!

Online petition drive asks city commissioners to put $25M recreation center project up for citywide vote
No, I have to disagree with your assumptions. The Rec Center is about private developers taking advantage of a situation at the public's expense. Its about a group of people that have their tongue hanging out bc they get to sit around Bill Self. Its about ego, and at the public's expense. Take a step back, come clean with the details and let the city vote on it. come on...the last vote the CC is using to justify this was in 1994!

Roberts, Moran vote for bill avoiding fiscal cliff; Jenkins, Yoder, Pompeo, Huelskamp vote against it
The US senators showed courage in stepping across the Norquist choke-hold. Didn't expect much from our House members and they didn't prove us wrong. The Democrats need a strong candidate to outspend the Koch brothers and defeat both Yoder and Jenkins. I am willing to pitch in if they can find that candidate.
She isn't tough to beat, just tough to beat the Koch brothers.
