Book excerpt: Pursuant to K.S.A. 65-1810 a school of barbering student must complete 1,500 hours of instruction in nine months, with a maximum of eight hours in a day. In our judgment, K.A.R. 61-3-17 which allows a student to make up lost time, adequately deals with time missed during the nine month period. Additionally, while there is no formal definition of a full-time student in the statutes, in our opinion, for purposes of fulfilling the statutory requirements a full-time student is one that can complete the required hours of instruction in the time frame set by statute. Because K.A.R. 61-3-22 prohibits the issuing of a permit to a night school, it is our opinion that a school that operates 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. cannot lawfully run a second shift. Proposed changes to the regulatory scheme, in our judgment, can be effected by adding the changes to pertinent existing regulations or by promulgating new regulations, provided the changes are appropriate, reasonable and within the statutory authority conferred by the legislature.
