The University of Kansas (KU) is a public research university with its main campus in Lawrence, Kansas.&nbsp;&nbsp;The university is a member of the Association of American Universities and is classified among &quot;R1: Doctoral Universities &ndash; Very high research activity&quot;.

Founded March 21, 1865, the university was opened in 1866, under a charter granted by the Kansas State Legislature in 1864 and legislation passed in 1863 under the State Constitution, which was adopted two years after the 1861 admission of the former Kansas Territory as the 34th state into the Union. Disputes over Kansas&#39; establishment as a free or slaveholding state prior to admission to the union prompted an internal civil war known as &quot;Bleeding Kansas&quot; during the 1850s.
