Board approves proposed tuition increases at Murray State, WKU
HENDERSON, Ky. (WEHT) – Students who are currently residing at Eastern Kentucky University (EKU), Murray State University (MSU) or Western Kentucky University (WKU) will probably need a bit more money this upcoming school year. Officials say at its June meeting, the Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE) board approved a recommendation to raise undergraduate tuition and mandatory fees for resident students at EKU, MSU and WKU by $420 for the 2025-26 school year, in accordance with CPE's tuition parameters. The CPE says the university boards approved these increases prior to CPE board approval: At EKU, this action will increase base undergraduate resident tuition and fees from $10,020 to $10,440, or by 4.2%. This revenue will offset a projected 3.8% increase or $10.3M, in fixed costs. At MSU, this action will increase base undergraduate resident tuition and fees from $9,900 to $10,320, or by 4.2%. This revenue will offset a projected 4.6% increase, or $9.1M, in fixed costs. At WKU, this action will increase base undergraduate resident tuition and fees from $11,452 to $11,872, or by 3.7%. Despite this increase, anticipated revenue is projected to decrease by $326,000. However, fixed costs also are projected to decrease by 1.3%, or $3.2M. Jim Irsay to be inducted into Colts Ring of Honor The CPE says the board also took the following actions: Approved two new academic programs: a Bachelor of Science for surgical first assistants at the University of Kentucky and a Master of Science in nonprofit leadership studies at Murray State University. Approved tuition reciprocity agreements between select Kentucky public postsecondary institutions and institutions in Indiana, Ohio and West Virginia. The agreements enable Kentucky residents to attend these out-of-state schools at in-state rates, and vice versa. Approved the reallocation of dollars in Kentucky State University's performance improvement fund, authorized by House Bill 250, which will be passed by the 2022 Kentucky General Assembly. Unspent funding in the amount of $2 million originally designated for the development of an engineering program will now support new online programs and enhanced accounting and auditing functions. Approved the CPE agency budget for fiscal year 2025-26. Approved changes to the statewide dual credit policy to align with the passage of House Bill 193 and House Bill 4 during the 2025 legislative session, as well as other technical changes. Approved a revision to CPE's Tuition and Mandatory Fee Policy to make student-endorsed special use fees and certain asset preservation fees subject to tuition and fee parameters, beginning in 2025-26. Previously, these fees were exempt. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

Colts Make Jim Irsay Announcement for Week 1 Against Dolphins
Colts Make Jim Irsay Announcement for Week 1 Against Dolphins originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Miami Dolphins are set to face the Indianapolis Colts in week one of the NFL season. The day just became even more special for Colts fans celebrating the start of the season. Advertisement The Colts announced on social media that former owner and CEO Jim Irsay will be inducted into the team's ring of honor before the game against the Dolphins. He will be joining names like Peyton Manning, Tony Dungy, Bill Polian, Marvin Harrison, Eric Dickerson, Dallas Clark, Reggie Wayne, and his father, Robert Irsay, along with many more. Irsay passed away at the age of 65 last month. He became the sole owner of the team in 1997 after his father, Robert, passed away. Before that, Irsay had worked in every department of the organization and was eventually named the youngest general manager in team history. Advertisement His father was responsible for moving the Colts to Indianapolis from Baltimore in 1984. The team remains as one of the only NFL franchises under sole family ownership. Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay sits in a golf cart during a Ring of Honor ceremony for Dallas Clark during a game against the Miami Dolphins at Lucas Oil Hollars/IndyStar USA TODAY Network via Imagn Images The Colts announced last week that Jim Irsay's daughters, Carlie Irsay-Gordon, Casey Foyt, and Kalen Jackson, will take over running the team. Each of them will be serving different roles outside of their ownership responsibilities. Indianapolis won Super Bowl XLI in 2007, a 29-17 victory over the Chicago Bears, under Irsay's ownership. It was the team's first Super Bowl victory since 1971, just one year before Jim's father, Robert, bought the team in 1972. Advertisement Irsay was beloved by fans and players alike.

Jim Irsay to be inducted into Colts Ring of Honor
HENDERSON, Ky. (WEHT) – Jim Irsay, the late owner and CEO of the Indianapolis Colts, will be inducted into the Indianapolis Colts Ring of Honor at Lucas Oil Stadium during the September 7 home opener vs. the Miami Dolphins. Irsay passed away on May 21 and was laid to rest on June 2. The Colts made the announcement June 13 on what would have been Irsay's 66th birthday. Colts' deep threat Alec Pierce looking to expand his game Officials say Jim Irsay will become the 20th honoree, joining: Owner Robert Irsay WR-Bill Brooks Head Coach Ted Marchibroda G/T-Chris Hinton QB-Jim Harbaugh 'Colts Nation' Head Coach Tony Dungy WR-Marvin Harrison RB-Edgerrin James RB-Eric Dickerson RB-Marshall Faulk C-Jeff Saturday General Manager Bill Polian QB-Peyton Manning WR-Reggie Wayne DE-Dwight Freeney DE-Robert Mathis T/G-Tarik Glenn TE-Dallas Clark 'There was no bigger advocate for the Colts, the NFL, the city of Indianapolis and the state of Indiana than our dad, Jim Irsay,' said Colts Owner and CEO Carlie Irsay-Gordon. 'It's only fitting that he now joins the other amazing Colts legends in our Ring of Honor who contributed so much to our franchise and our community over the past four decades.' Jim was born and raised in the Chicago area, but some of his memories came from his youth working Colts training camps in Baltimore, Maryland, after his father, a Chicago businessman, acquired the Baltimore Colts in 1972. There, Jim started his 54-year affiliation with the Colts and began 'cultivating a lifetime of relationships' with players, coaches and staff. The Pacers are in the NBA Finals. The Fever have Caitlin Clark. In Indy, basketball is booming After graduating in 1982 from Southern Methodist University, where he played football and earned a degree in broadcast journalism, Jim joined the franchise and worked in virtually every department before being named the youngest general manager in NFL history when the Colts arrived in Indianapolis in 1984. In 1987, he helped lead the team to its first division title and playoff appearance during the Indianapolis era. After he assumed sole ownership of the club in 1997, Jim oversaw a 'historic, record-breaking' period of success on the field. The Colts say, overall, Jim, as owner, led them to 10 division titles, two AFC Championships and the club's fourth world championship. From 2007 to 2012, the Colts played in two Super Bowls (XLI, XLIV) and hosted a Super Bowl in a span of just six years. Officials say a pillar of his lasting legacy is the powerful influence Kicking The Stigma has had, is having and will have on improving mental health awareness, research and treatment in Indiana and across the United States.
