As the rest of the town is just starting to wake up, Munchers Bakery is helping Lawrence start its day with breakfast.
It's not even 7 a.m., and general manager Mike Tennyson Jr. has already gotten in a full day of work. He kneads a slab of dough spread across a huge wooden table covered in flour in the bakery's back room. In a few hours, the dough will be baked into danishes, ready for purchase at the Munchers counter. But before that, it needs an hour to rise in the proofing oven, and then it needs to be baked.
Tennyson has worked full time at the bakery for five years. His sister, Sunday Martin, works there full time. Tennyson said his job isn't all that difficult — aside from the hours, which have

the cream cheese donut. Sophomore Grace Mauery said she stops by Munchers at least a couple times a month for the popular treat. The Marching Jayhawks drum majors highly recommended it when she arrived on campus freshman year, and she's been going ever since.
"If you've been studying for a long time and it's late at night and you want a snack and nothing's open, it's a good place to go," she said.
Lawrence resident and 1981 University graduate Craig Penzler takes his four grandchildren to Munchers when they visit him in Lawrence. He said when his two daughters were younger, Munchers was a family staple. Now his kids are grown and moved out of state, but he always brings a box of Munchers doughnuts when he goes to see them. He said they have a standing order for the cream cheese doughnut and the strawberry knot.
"When the girls got married and moved out of town and all that, it seemed like a fun way to take Lawrence to them," Penzler said.

"We had heard from a few different faculty that they really wanted to be able to support their students, and they weren't really sure how they should do that," said Amber Roberts Graham, graduate studies policy coordinator for the University. "So we thought we should provide some guidelines that really encourage them to work directly with their students."

"Graduate school is so individualized that any given student could need something different, and we wanted to build that into the policy, that flexibility," Graham said.

As the University prepares for the upcoming implementation of concealed carry on campus, only some of its buildings - athletics facilities — will be able to keep guns out due to practicality and budget constraints.
SEE POLICY PAGE 3
Starting this fall, the University will implement armed guards and metal detectors at entrances to Allen
Pleinouse, Memorial Stadium and Rock Chalk Park during events with more than 5,000 spectators. Additionally, spectators will no longer be allowed to bring bags or purses into athletic venues and instead must use clear plastic bags.
These new policies are a reaction to the concealed carry law that will allow guns in campus buildings starting July 1. However, the law states that guns can be restricted from buildings if the buildings have adequate security measures (ASMs), such as armed guards and metal detectors.
In theory, every building on campus could restrict guns if ASMs were put in place. In 2015, the University investigated securing the more than 200 buildings on campus, but the investigation revealed that doing so would cost upwards of $20 million and congest the flow of student foot traffic.
