Abstract
The Kansas Policy Survey, Spring 2001 (KPS-Spring01) consisted of over 80 questions that were constructed by the Director and Manager of the Survey Research Center as well as from consultation with others in the Policy Research Institute at the University of Kansas. While the survey is not inclusive of all policy and political issues affecting Kansas, it represents a breadth of issues and concerns from the 2000 Presidential election, to current and future economic expectations, policy preferences for Kansas state services, and the recent decision by the Kansas Board of Education to re-emphasize evolution in the science curriculum. The short version here contains the findings for selected survey questions specifically related to Kansas state government, policy and politics.
The results of the survey reveal interesting and important information about Kansans’ perspectives on the various issues. For the most part, Kansans are satisfied with how things are going in the state. However, there are small to sizable minorities that feel that substantial change is needed. One of the most notable distinctions is that Kansans are fairly concerned about the state of public education in the state.
