KDOR reminds voters of free ID services

TOPEKA—Kansans who need a photo ID before the November 6th election can visit any driver’s license office, jump to the front of the line, and get one for free.

To ensure the ID is free, Kansans should specifically state they need it for voting. The cost for ID cards normally is $22.

“This service is always available and it’s important for us to remind voters that it’s an option ahead of the November 6th general election,” Director of Vehicles David Harper said.

For a list of driver’s license office locations and hours visit https://www.ksrevenue.org/dovstations.html.

My thanks to the state library for this. By 1968, Butler Community College was 41 years old. We weren't the first, but we executed the concept beautifully over the years.

Available at the KGI Online Library... a 1968 publication celebrating the 50th anniversary of community/junior colleges in Kansas.

View the most recent Blog and take a look at the history, photos, statistics, etc on community/junior colleges in Kansas as viewed 50 years ago in 1968.

Of Course We Closed

Funny to read that last post and realize within a week we were in the process of closing, too. By March 13, Dr. Krull had it under consider...
