Cost estimates for Rock Chalk Park infrastructure come in about $3 million higher than expected; Self's foundation to make $2 million donation
Everything else costs less. But Fritzel, allowed to bypass the bid system, comes in high -- to the tune of $3 million. Something reeks.

Clemson University hires KU professor to lead biology department
I believe his wife is also a KU faculty member -- any word if she is going to Clemson, as well?

As city prepares to bid recreation center, officials still waiting to receive cost numbers from Fritzel on infrastructure
I hope that all those above complaining about Mayor Dever and the City Commission's approach to this insanity will take the time to e-mail Dever et al directly. The only way this Commission seems to pivot on issues is when there is a direct public outcry. Cut and paste your comments, and e-mail them. These commissioners need to hear that not everyone is in love with this process.
P.S. Is there any way to get the new City Commission to re-vote on the whole project...?

Chad and LJW, thank you for this Q&A. Great idea and excellent coverage of this community issue. Local newspapers with local journalists are critical to democracy.

KU, Brownback joining to hold conference on slavery, human trafficking
This conference was put together by KU faculty and staff and was planned before Brownback decided to join the slate. It is a legitimate conference with some of the country's foremost experts on human trafficking, including law enforcement.
If you don't believe it exists or don't think it's an issue, go to the conference -- or, at least read about it in the LJW.

Fourth grade reading; third grade retention
Thank you for writing about this and explaining the stats' sources. I didn't know that other states had third-grade retention laws. This issue merits lots of discussion going forward. Lots.
