Legislature approves money for Washburn, Regents plan
- Continued from p. 1
Overland Park at 127th Street and Ouivira Road.
The remaining $4 million for the project will come from private sources solicited by the University of Kansas.
The budget also appropriates $5.9 million in financing for Washburn University.
The budget calls for a 4 percent increase in the other operating expenses budget for universities in the Regents system. During committee negotiations, the House had requested a 3 percent increase. KU will receive $12.8 million for its other operating expenses budget.
Stanley Koplik, executive director of the Regents, said he was pleased with the full financing of the Regents remeets.
"I hope the Legislature will continue to place a high priority on higher education in the future,"
Koplik said.
The budget provides a 14.5 percent increase in financing for community colleges. That increase in financing was part of the plan that was originally proposed.
Community colleges will receive $28.4 million for credit hour state aid, $8.5 in out-district tuition and $3.7 in additional taxation.
Winter said he was satisfied with the compromises.
"I thrilled with the way it turned out," Winter said. The negotiation process was difficult, but the end result was satisfying to the making of the Regents requests, he said.
State Rep. Betty Jo Charlton, D-Lawrence, said she was surprised to see financing for the Regents Center in the budget.
"The Regents Center was the last thing that was put back into the budget," Charlton said. "There were
those in both chambers who didn't think we deserved financing for the center, but it was part of the compromises during the conference committee."
Charlton said the center was only a small item in the Regents budget. However, because its benefits mainly would be felt by Johnson County residents and KU, there was opposition to the construction.
"I wouldn't say one side of the legislature or the other came out ahead on the budget compromises," Charlton said. "It was a fair compromise between Washburn and the Budget, as a whole, was great."
Judith Ramaley, executive vice chancellor, said the financing of the center would provide a much needed service.
"Part of our mission is to serve the Kansas City area," Ramaley said.
"I think there are more benefits than pitfalls associated with this tuition increase," Koplik said. "I don't think that an increase of this size will keep students away. They are necessary increases, and we will work to see that financial aid is also increased to those students who may not be able to afford the tuition."

Regents will consider application fee
Koplik said tuition increases were likely to continue to occur in the future.
"I think increases in tuition are likely to occur as increases in higher education occur." Kopik said. He said he hoped the increases would occur in smaller increments in the future.
"We also don't want to continue to turn on the valve on the students' side and not the state's side when it's not in use."
"The application fee represents a direct user fee." Koplik said. "The costs associated with this represent a significant amount in processing fees. I think the board will consider this.
The proposal for creating an application fee also will be submitted to the Regents. Its purpose would be to help the costs associated with processing applications from a common at universities in states bordering Kansas.
"The important aspect about this is that the money will be used to improve the application process and to
staff the universities' financial aid offices," Koplik said.
Mark Tallman, legislative affairs director for Association Students of Kansas, said ASK did not endorse the proposed application fee. He said that it was a questionable request because he was questionable whether it would be adopted by the Senate.
But ASK does support the tuition increase. Tallman said.
"We don't like to see increases in tuition, but provided that there is an increase in financial aid programs for students, we will support this increase." We would also like to provide that some form of increase in tuition will occur.
Tallman said the program proposed by the committee was consistent with the Margin of Excellence program set up two years ago. Under that program, the only way for the state to increase financing for universities would be for the students to play a part in the increase, he said.
"I think one of the reasons that the state has funded the Margin in its entirety is that students have put their money where their mouths are and agreed to increase in tuition." Tallman said.
"We cannot overlook the fact that tuition has steadily increased over the past few years, but on the other hand, the cost to attend college in Kansas is still below the national average." Tallman said.
