SUMMARY:Bill Kurtis
DESCRIPTION:“Before it was history\, it was news\,” reflects Kansas-raised journalist\, network news anchor\, producer\, and rancher Bill Kurtis. \nJoin acclaimed journalist Bill Kurtis in conversation with Dole Institute Director Audrey Coleman for a lively discussion of his Kansas roots and the news that shaped the nation over the course of 7 decades in journalism. \n  \n \nSpecial thanks to the Dole Lecture media partner Kansas Public Radio. \n  \n\n  \nAbout Bill Kurtis\nBill Kurtis began his journalism career at WIBW-TV in Topeka\, Kansas. After his 24-hour coverage of a devastating tornado in 1966\, Kurtis was hired by Chicago’s WBBM-TV\, where he was a field reporter and later anchor of The Channel Two News. \nIn 1978\, Kurtis’ investigative unit was one of the first to report on the dangerous effects of the Agent Orange chemical on American forces in Vietnam. While covering the story\, he returned to Vietnam in 1980 to find the children of American servicemen living in the streets of Saigon with their mothers\, who were unable to find work. Kurtis’ reporting became a cover story in the New York Times Magazine and resulted in legislation that allowed these children immediate access to the United States. Additionally\, his reporting launched massive studies into the post-war lives of American servicemen to make exposure to Agent Orange treatable—establishing a new standard of care for veterans that continues to evolve in the modern day. \nIn 1982\, Kurtis joined the CBS Morning News as a co-anchor alongside Diane Sawyer\, later returning to WBBM-TV in 1985 as anchorman through 1996 and from 2010 to 2013 alongside Walter Jacobson. \nAfter a 30-year run with CBS\, he established Kurtis Productions\, which produces non-fiction programs and documentaries. Additionally\, he serves as the Official Judge and Scorekeeper on National Public Radio’s news quiz show\, Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me!\, and has narrated multiple motion pictures\, including the Anchorman films starring Will Ferrell. \nKurtis was born in Florida and raised in Independence\, Kansas\, after his father retired from the U.S. Marine Corps. He graduated from the University of Kansas with a Bachelor of Science degree in Journalism\, and from Washburn University School of Law with a Juris Doctorate. In addition to his work in journalism\, Kurtis is an active conservationist in Kansas. Kurtis has placed land in the Red Buffalo Ranch\, originally 8\,000 acres of prairie in Chautauqua County\, in conservation easements and has sold much of the land to cattlemen and the Delaware Indian Tribe. His daughter\, Mary Kristin Kurtis\, now owns the remainder of the ranch and the Red Buffalo Gift Shop in Sedan\, Kansas. \n  \nAbout the Dole Lecture\nEach spring\, the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics commemorates the date on which Senator Bob Dole was critically wounded while serving in Italy during World War II. To honor Senator Dole’s courageous recovery and commitment to serve the nation\, we welcome a guest to the Institute who embodies the commitments that Senator Dole held throughout his career in public service.

SUMMARY:ERA in the Heartland: Ratification and Reconsideration in Kansas\, 1973-1980
DESCRIPTION:Experience ERA in the Heartland before the exhibit closes this month! The last day to visit this exhibit is March 9. Plan your visit to the Dole Institute’s Museum & Galleries by visiting our website.\nIn the early 1970s states raced to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment after it was passed in Congress. It seemed inevitable that the legislation\, granting equal rights to men and women\, would become the 27th amendment to the United States Constitution. Grassroots movements – for and against the amendment – mobilized swiftly in response. Highlighting the voices of ordinary Kansans\, this exhibit explores the dialogue surrounding the adoption of the ERA in our state and its legacy today. \nThis exhibit is based on University of Kansas history and journalism student Alexandra Haggar’s Honors thesis: “Rescind ERA: The Failed Efforts in Kansas to Rescind Ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment\, 1973-1980.” \n  \n \nThis exhibit is presented in partnership with the KU Department of History and with special thanks to Dr. Marie Grace Brown. \nThis exhibit features materials from the Kenneth Spencer Research Library at the University of Kansas.
