How did you pick Univ. of Kansas out of all the the great state schools
in the general area. New York, Mass, New Jersey etc. While I don't
think of them as a top tier school, it definitely is head and shoulders
over Univ. of Kansas.

It was the attraction of being near Skipper in Derby. I believe they
were quite close at one time.
