With a gift from Ford Motor Co., Kansas University students are working on a new way to bring health care services to people in isolated areas of the state. The donated compact van, called a Transit Connect, will be a medical office on wheels as part of what KU is calling its WellCar program. Once rolling, the WellCar will allow a nurse practitioner to travel to several places a day and treat patients with HEALTH the necessary medical and communication equipment. The KU Center for Design Research, which is part of the School of Architecture, Design and Planning, is designing a functional prototype to fit the van with equipment. Gregory Thomas, director of the Center for Design Research, said he hopes the WellCar model will allow nurse practitioners to provide a broad range of patient services. Officials are hoping to get the WellCar on the road early next year.

In the recently unveiled Kansas University master plan, school officials have outlined an ambitious building program that will cost hundreds of millions of dollars. Now the question becomes how to pay for it. One avenue being explored is to seek out private developers to construct the buildings and then the university would make payments to the

Gordzica said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is driven more by the need for the facilities and looking at ways to accomplish the master plan as soon as possible.â&#x20AC;? Please see FUNDING, page 2A
