Hi Harry,
Has anyone else heard of this? I just came across it: From USA Today (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/08/04/secret-sanctions-revealed-against-university-hosting-125-billion-biolab/31075709/)
Kansas State University =97 where a controversial $1.25 billion biosecurity lab facility is under construction =97 secretly faced federal sanctions last year after repeatedly violating safety regulations during its research with bioterror pathogens, records obtained by USA TODAY show.
Kansas State's "history of non-compliance" during four consecutive inspections over two years shows a "systemic problem" and has "raised serious concerns" about the university's ability to put safeguards in place to ensure safety and containment of dangerous pathogens, according to a March 2014 letter to the university from federal lab regulators.
