Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Does the University Pay?: The Annual Opening Address at the University of Kansas, Lawrence, Friday, September 9, 1892 In 1861 the State of Kansas became a State under the Wyandotte constitution. The framers of that instrument saw, or thought they saw, the necessity for such an institution of learning as this. Provision was accordingly made in the organic law of the State for the University of Kansas. The Congress of the United States, in the enabling act admitting Kansas into the Union, recognized the same real or fancied necessity; and a grant of public land was made to the State for the University. The Legislature of the State in 1863 appointed commissioners to locate the University, and in 1864 provided for its organization, here at Lawrence; and this hill, with its delightful mountain name, has ever since been its home. Beginning with 1866, every Legislature that has since convened within this State has, to a greater or less extent, appropriated money from the public treasury for its maintenance. The growth of the University has been such that the amount now required for its actual and necessary expenses is at the rate of $75,000 yearly.
