There is a reason why the discontent in KU is not seen in KUMS even though the problems in KUMS are bigger. This is because all staff in KUMS are temporary on one-year contracts. their contract is coming to end each year so they are scared of losing their jobs if they protest. KU has kept all the staff on temporary contracts even though they have been working for 3-4 years. They realized that if the staff were made permanent they would complain more. If they had done the same in all the schools of KU, there would be "no problem" as the KU leadership sees it.
