Two KU students have won Barry M. Goldwater Scholarships in a national competition for students of science and mathematics.

Shipley is majoring in biochemistry and mathematics and plans a career teaching molecular biology at the university level. Credit card payments for tuition end As of June 28, the University of Kansas will not accept credit cards for payment of tuition and fees and room and board. The change has occurred because the 1996 Kansas Legislature decided to make KU and other Board of Regents universities pay for a processing fee charged by credit card companies each time a student pays with a credit card. Previously, the state of Kansas subsidized the fee.
