A big day is ahead as the Kansas Board of Regents continue their monthly meeting in Emporia on Thursday.
Regents will concentrate on feedback across Emporia State University into the early afternoon hours. Regents will meet separately with university deans and the university leadership team before taking a brief “campus renovation tour,” with stops including the recently-named Feltner Square, the site of the upcoming Nursing and Student Wellness facility, the Esports section of Cremer Hall and the Butcher Education Center — which will soon be demolished.
Wednesday’s business has been spent focusing on higher education matters across Kansas, including potential housing and food rate adjustments. Emporia State University has proposed increases of 3.9 to 4.1 percent, depending on the category.
