The student newspaper at the University of Kansas sued KU administrators Friday, alleging they approved funding cuts after an editorial critical of the student senate.
The University Daily Kansan’s leadership filed the lawsuit in federal court, charging KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little and Vice Provost for Student Affairs Tammara Durham violated freedom of speech protections under the U.S. Constitution and the Kansas Constitution by signing off on fee cuts to the newspaper made by the student senate.
