Stephan warns officials not to discriminate
By STEVE ROBRAHN Staff Reporter
Public officials shouldn't discriminate against groups that want to use public property for religious services, Robert Stephan, Kansas attorney general told a meeting of state school administrators last night.
"Every other kind of group uses public property." Stephan said. "To not allow religious groups would amount to discrimination against them."
Stephan was referring to the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to hear arguments in a case involving the University of Missouri's policy of allowing student groups from using university facilities for religious services.
Stephan said he expected the Court to unbold his view on the case.
"I think that it's just stretching separation of church and state a bit much,"Stephan said.
Stephan said that his office had been asked to rule on a similar case in Johnson County, but said that he would have argued the Supreme Court handed down its decision.
"I was going to take this issue until I discovered the other (the MU case)," he said. "We'll just have to wait and see."
The University of Kansas allows religious services in its buildings if the group is registered and space is available.
Stephan cited the recent decision to build a library in honor of Richard
Stephan told the administrators that they must be sure to tell both sides of a story, and that not doing so was a form of censorship.

School officials also are often faced with asking themselves what portions of meetings and records can be closed to the public, Stephan said, but the question should be what portion could be open to the public.
"Remember, the public is the boss for whom we all work," he said.
Stephan said after the speech that his choice not to run for governor "boiled down to a very personal decision."
"I had a good shot if I had the desire it

takes to run." Stephan said. "You have to want the standing of an office more than anything else in the world!"

Before making his decision not to run last week, Stephan said he analyzed polls which gave him a high approval rating.
"There's not too many people who wouldn't have run with that kind of applause."
Much of Stephan's remarks were designed to make the administrators aware of the attorney general's office works.
Sometimes the attorney general must get involved in legal action with state education administrators, he said. He argued that the result of an opinion he had issued.
