Kansas State University issues warning about Salina tech school merger

by Associated Press , September 18, 2007

Early on, Kuhlman said, the thinking at Kansas State and North Central Kansas Technical College had been, "How can this not be a slam dunk? It was about last week, we realized the way the community was talking, we needed to address the worst-case scenario, and let people know."

Among those attending Monday's meeting was Carol Brandert, president of the Salina School Board, who said it appeared the board might have little choice, given Kansas State's plans to not allow another college to move in.

"I was hoping our procedure would be considered fair by all entities involved," she said. "But a choice that is no choice isn't a choice. If K-State says it won't allow another entity to provide any classes, that's it."
