Due to renovations at the Statehouse that require events to be held at an off-site location, as well as the current economic situation and its impact on the budget, we wanted to let you know that KU in the Capitol will not be held during the 2009 Legislative Session.
Our efforts to advocate on behalf of our university will obviously continue and KU’s government relations staff will work to identify other opportunities during the session to share our message. Additionally, the Chancellor, Provost and other top university leaders will continue to work with individual legislators on issues critical to KU and may call on you for counsel and assistance.
Thank you for your past participation in KU in the Capitol and your work to tell KU’s story. We hope and expect KU in the Capitol will return in 2010.
Thank you.
