The lawsuit by Dodge City Community College, Pratt Community College and Cowley Community College seeks a temporary injunction against what it calls unfair funding.
The colleges claim the board reimburses its full-time enrollment figures in certain vocational and technical programs at a rate three times below that provided to other Kansas community colleges.
The lawsuit ultimately seeks a permanent injunction forcing the Board of Regents to implement equitable funding formulas for all vocational and technical programs. It also seeks past and future compensatory damages.
