Allright, you KU fans, what's the latest on the NCAA Violations?

Academic fraud is just about the worst violation there can be (in terms of the NCAA).

The NCAA may care about academic fraud but Kansans don’t, but then what would you expect from a state more interested in forcing pseudoscience down children’s throats and forcing the suburbs to under fund their school districts.

Yea I have, North Kansas City School District, Liberty School District, Parkville School District and Lee’s Summit School District are all School Districts which support residents of the city of Kansas City, and in fact the majority of residents in the City attend these school districts.

Also you may want to look at the standards utilized by the state of Kansas for its schools; they are some of the lowest in the nation (although they are currently looking at raising those standards to be more in line with the avg. standards found in the US)

Failure is written all over this district of 30,000 mostly minority students. The high school graduation rate was only 59 percent in 2000, compared to 79.5 percent statewide and about 80 percent nationally. More than 88 percent of Kansas City School District seventh graders are not proficient in reading, and more than 97 percent of 10th graders are not proficient in mathematics, according to the state education department.

You can't paint the whole state of Missouri with the KCMO school district brush. Talk to the voters who are electing the pathetic KCMO school board members.

Of course not. But you can apparently paint the entire state of Kansas with the religious brush, and be entirely accurate and justified.
