Kentucky Students Challenge SB 185

Seven anonymous Kentucky State University students have filed a new lawsuit claiming Senate Bill 185 — the controversial law forcing major academic changes — is unconstitutional. The bill, signed in April, declares a five-year financial emergency and mandates most liberal arts programs go online, with only ten in-person options starting in 2026-27. Plaintiffs argue the bill was rushed, added to after the deadline as a “shell bill,” and bypassed proper constitutional procedures, including Senate readings. They also challenge its emergency clause, saying no real emergency was declared. University officials say they weren’t involved and are focused on legal compliance as the situation unfolds.
