Our Toby Gibbs has more as we look at headlines around Kentucky.
Kentucky State University is freezing its relationship with the KSU Foundation, which oversees the school's donations.
The State Journal reports the letter from the University to Board of Regents detailing the move was sent Sunday to alumni and stakeholders.
The State Journal says in the letter.
Board Chair Tammy Dukes says the foundation's recent actions have caused doubt about its management of the funds.
Duke says the board has been, quote, faced with challenges in obtaining confirmation of deposits made by agents of KSU and donors into the appropriate accounts since April 2022 and quote, The letter states, the foundation has instead pursued legal action to keep its records hidden from the public and is spending money to do so.
The State Journal reports because of this, the foundation can't spend money from the account.
No funds will be deposited to the foundation and no disbursements will be authorized without approval from the president.
In a unanimous opinion released March 1st, Court of Appeals Deputy Chief Judge Pamela Good wine Judge Glenda Gray and Judge Alison Jones said.
The KSU Foundation is a public agency and must comply with open record requests.
The State Journal's original Open records request to the Foundation in 2021 was for documentation regarding former K-State president M Christopher Brown, the second's travel and birthday party expenses and any payment over 1500 dollars.
The State Journal quotes Chair Tammie Dukes as saying, If the issue continues, the university will end its relationship with the foundation and request all funds be transferred to KSU.

A pink moon will rise Tuesday night, but it's not actually pink.
Eastern Kentucky University professor Mark Pitts tells WVXU.
The moon is worth catching if you can.
Next week, on May 4th, the ETA Aquarids meteor shower will peak and produce a meteor nearly every second.
Pitt says the shower, which appears to come from the constellation Aquarius, consists of tiny bits of rock and ice from Halley's Comet.
He adds that it's best seen in the hours just before dawn with headlines around Kentucky.
