Donors are pushing Kansas' higher education board to
fire Wichita State University's president after he canceled a virtual speech by
Ivanka Trump for its technical school's graduation.
The Kansas Board of Regents had a special Zoom meeting Wednesday, only two days after a former board member from Wichita said the regents should ask for President Jay Golden’s resignation.
Afterward, the board issued a short statement that didn't mention him or Wichita State, expressing its commitment to “support and promote freedom of speech and diversity and inclusion.”
