Jayhawk Boulevard construction cleared
MIRANDA DAVIS
@mirandadavis
Jayhawk Boulevard construction is now complete in time for bus traffic to be allowed through for Monday's classes. The street and sidewalks are completely open for student use, but trees and landscaping have not been completed, due to the heat.
Construction on Jayhawk Boulevard is complete, and buses and pedestrians will have full access to the roads and sidewalks. Landscaping projects are expected to be completed in September or October when temperatures are cooler.
Landscaping projects should be finished in September or October, said Paul Graves, deputy director of Design and Construction Management.

Remnants of the construction, including the large staging area in front of Watkins Library, have been removed and most signs from the project are gone.
This summer's
This summer's construction was the second phase in the Jayhawk Boulevard beautification project. It was expected to be finished within the first week of August, but a
rainy summer, along with unexpected difficulties, led to the delay.
"Until you start doing the excavation and so forth, you don't know for sure
what you're going to run into, so they ran into some challenges," Graves said. The entire project should be completed in summer of 2016.
The KU Info booth was also torn down during the project. It will be replaced in a new location near the old one.
Jayhawk Boulevard will be open to buses and
pedestrians, but nonuniversity vehicles will still not be allowed on the street during main campus hours.

have the details finalized within a week and would like to hold the re-election as soon as possible.
Pacey said he thinks the election will only be between candidates that participated in last year's election and were not disqualified — meaning only members of Crimson and True and Grow KU — as the decision to disqualify members of Jayhawkers was upheld
"What needs to happen is a new election needs to be held where new candidates can come,new coalitions can form and it doesn't have to be just the people
Jayhawkers presidential candidate MacKenzie Oatman, a senior from Wichita, does not believe this is the correct understanding of the Appeals Panel's decision and would like to see an entirely new election.
by the Panel in April. He said at this time, no new coalitions can be formed.
CORRECTIONS
The article titled "Getting familiar with the Student Rec Center" in Wednesday's issue incorrectly stated the price and length of a KU Fit pass as $50 for two semesters. Additionally, Fit45 was incorrectly listed as a KU Fit class. Jill Urkoski was wrongly identified as the associate director of Ambler Student Recreation Fitness Services. The earlier version also incorrectly indicated the majority of KU Fit classes are offered between 8 a.m. and noon. The classes are offered all day. The story has been updated on Kansan.com to reflect the changes.
The article titled "Students donate nearly $500,000 in items to community" in Wednesday's
issue incorrectly stated the Center for Community Outreach (CCO) donated $500,000 in items during a recent drive. The CCO donated $250,000 in items during the drive and had an overall economic impact of $500,000 during the 2014-15 academic year. The article also stated that more than 3,000 volunteers assisted with the drive. The CCO did not have 3,000 volunteers helping at the drive; rather, it is the total annual volunteers. The article stated one of the CCO's programs is Super Service Saturday. This is not a program, it is an annual event. The story has been updated on Kansan.com to reflect the changes.
