Taylor Swift

The Trump administration's clampdown on student visas means that colleges and universities have gotten a lot fewer students from abroad this year. That could spell trouble for higher education and the U.S. as a whole. Plus: A University of Kansas professor wrote the literal book on "Swiftynomics," about the economic impact of women's work — and Taylor Swift herself.

Kansas City, Kansas, artist Harold Smith’s new series of paintings puts a personal spin on iconic works from art history by adding in his friends and neighbors. You can see these "Around the Way Folk, Saints in Uncommon Places" now at the Mulvane Art Museum in Topeka.

It’s hard to imagine what might go into planning the wedding of America's biggest super star and a Kansas City Chiefs player — but we have some ideas. A premier Kansas City event planner said a wedding of that magnitude would shut down the city, if it happens here.

Companies from Pillsbury to Invisalign to Olipop are cheering — and trying to cash in on — the couple's engagement. It's especially visible around Kansas City, which has embraced the Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce romance.

Pictures posted by the couple appear to have been taken at the NFL star's Leawood estate, which he bought in 2023. Travis Kelce's father said the proposal happened about two weeks ago at Kelce's home, but he seems to have made a mistake about its location.

Swift and Kelce, who have been dating for two years, announced their engagement Tuesday in a joint Instagram post. Kansas City institutions are already offering their spaces as wedding venues.

There are powerful economic messages to take from the careers of Taylor Swift and Beyoncé, writes a University of Kansas professor. A new book lays out what their successes help us understand about the role of everyday women in the economy.

Taylor Swift is expected to discuss her new album Wednesday in an appearance on "New Heights," a podcast hosted by her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, and his brother Jason.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has accepted how far his reach has extended thanks to his high-profile girlfriend. As the Chiefs attempt to pull off an unprecedented "three-peat" at Super Bowl 59, Kelce welcomes the chance to take the spotlight.

At Sunday night's Grammys, will Beyoncé finally win album of the year? Will Taylor Swift take that prize for the fifth time? Or will a new generation of pop stars — like Missouri native and Midwest princess Chappell Roan — claim the moment?

The University of Kansas speaker series, which begins Wednesday, will center Taylor Swift to explain and explore ideas in economics, literature, political science and more.
