Yesterday I was excited to learn that the Governor’s budget recommendations include several items to help Kansas families access higher education and leverage our system’s unique capabilities to grow the Kansas economy.
My full statement on the budget proposal is available on the @ksregents website: kansasregents.org/about/news…
I was honored to attend the State of the State yesterday. The Regents look forward to working with the Governor and Legislature this session. Our higher education system has the power to revitalize our economy if we partner to meet the needs of Kansas families and businesses.

At this month's Board meeting, the Regents had a reception to honor President Myers before his retirement. He possesses a deep passion for K-State, its students and employees, and we are grateful for his leadership and vision. I wish him all the best in retirement.

Last week I had the honor to join other leaders from across Kansas to celebrate the inauguration of @PresidentWSU Richard Muma.
President Muma’s plans for the future of @WichitaState are exciting and align with the Regents’ strategic vision of higher education as an engine of growth – a means to help Kansas families, support businesses and advance prosperity in our state.
I encourage you to watch President Muma’s inaugural remarks and learn about his vision for Wichita State University. youtu.be/eh_OrlBzOZA?t=3513
