Summary
The bill would have the state board of regents, working with the attorney general, create training materials on constitutional free‑speech, association and religious‑exercise rights. Every Kansas post‑secondary institution would have to provide that training each year to administrators who handle discipline, campus operations, and student‑organization funding. The board would certify compliance and the attorney general could sue schools that do not follow the rule.
