Regents, Legislature going in different directions ——

As states nationwide increase higher ed funding, Kan. cuts it By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

BRENNA BUCHANAN YOUNG, PROJECT MANAGER FOR THE 1863 COMMEMORATE LAWRENCE PROJECT and an architectural historian, has researched older buildings in downtown Lawrence and found that several more survived Quantrill’s Raid than originally thought. Photographed inside the Dusty Bookshelf, at 708 Massachusetts St., Buchanan Young is certain the building is pre-Quantrill and the south wall, shown behind her, with its quoins — masonry blocks at the corner of a wall — are the same ones visible in photographs of the building taken within a year of the burning of Lawrence. Buchanan Young is holding a copy of David Dary’s “Pictorial History of Lawrence.�

renna Buchanan Young goes over the fine points of a building like investigators go over a crime scene. No detail is too small to matter. In fact, maybe we’re on to something here. The “CSI� TV show franchise has made millions. Maybe there is potential for “BHI� — building history investigator — and it could be based right here in Lawrence. As Lawrence prepares to

commemorate the 150th anniversary of William Quantrill’s deadly, Civil War-era raid on Lawrence this August, there is quite a bit of building history investigation going on. A few investigations, actually, have produced quite a bit of excitement in Young’s circles. But be forewarned: Unlike the “CSI� folks, it is not blood spatters or DNA that gets BHIs like Young excited. It’s coining. Yes, I was excited too

when I thought that word described a process to put more coins in my pocket. But it’s not. It is an architectural term used to describe the stacking of cornerstones of a building. And when Young — an architectural historian by training — saw the coining in an October 1864 photo of downtown Lawrence, she became excited. The coining that’s on the Please see BUILDINGS, page 6A

TOPEKA — Robba Moran — a member of the Kansas Board of Regents and wife of U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan. — says that when her husband comes home to Hays on the weekend, the two of them have a whinefest. He whines about federal agencies. Her whine? “I have R. Moran a Legislature that doesn’t seem to value education,� she says. Robba Moran, a Republican, and other Republicans and Democrats on the Board of Regents last week blasted the Legislature for cutting the higher education budget. It was a bipartisan fusillade against partisan budget cuts that

Are electronic medical records working as advertised? By Giles Bruce gbruce@ljworld.com

Dr. Philip Stevens looks his patients in the eye when he talks to them. After each appointment, he dictates his notes on the visit to one of his assistants, who writes it down in long hand. His office in Tonganoxie doesn’t have a computer or fax machine. He has meticulous paper records

dating back 57 years. But even Stevens, 85, acknowledges he’s the last of a breed that will soon be extinct: physicians who don’t use electronic medical records. While there is no mandate, doctors who don’t go digital by 2015 will receive reduced Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements. Providers who implement electronic
