Our own Megan Kaminski, community poet and KU professor, leads the Lawrence Transit Poet Laureate program, which features poetry on electric buses. She will conduct a "Ride and Write" workshop on July 29, 2025, to inspire submissions for the 2026 theme "Routes to Belonging." Kaminski's efforts aim to foster community connection and reflection through poetry during daily commutes. Submissions are due by November 3, 2025, and can be in any language spoken in the community.

For the fourth year, KU is participating in the Worldwide Climate Education Week, led by Bard College. Five events offer opportunities to come together in different settings around education about the climate crisis.
