Iowa women's basketball holds steady in AP Top 25 rankings

After a 2-1 start to the 2026-27 Iowa women's basketball season, where do the Hawkeyes rank in the Nov. 9 update to the AP Top 25 poll ? Iowa stayed put at No. 10 nationally. UCLA is also ranked 10th nationally with an identical 469 points from AP voters. The Hawkeyes began the campaign with two dominant wins over Towson (73-45) and Eastern Illinois (80-39) at Carver-Hawkeye Arena before suffering its first loss of the year on the road at UConn (91-79). Although Iowa fell victim to a career-high 39-point performance by UConn's Sarah Strong on Sunday, the Hawkeyes' perseverance and continued fight throughout the game made the defeat a learning experience.

UIHC task force leaves cause of higher Mission Cancer bills untouched

A small task force the Iowa Board of Regents assembled to review issues with patient billing after University of Iowa Health Care purchased the state's largest cancer treatment clinic says more could be done to help patients understand billing and access financial support. The task force, however, was not assigned to do anything about the biggest factor that has made former Mission Cancer & Blood patients' bills higher under UIHC. Dr. Denise Jamieson, UIHC vice president for medical affairs , told the regents at their Wednesday, Nov. 11, meeting in Ames the group examined communications with patients and billing and financial counseling. Jamieson said it determined UIHC could inform patients earlier about what they may owe, connect them with financial assistance and work with insurers, employers and others that play a role in out-of-pocket medical costs. UIHC also could "measure whether the changes are affecting the patient experience," she said. "We want patients to focus on their treatment," she said. But the task force did not address the reason for the higher bills. In a series of investigative reports this year, the Des Moines Register Watchdog found the elevated bills showed up after the nonprofit hospital group started charging hospital

State Auditor-elect Taylor Wettach, a Democrat from Muscatine, says maintaining the independence of the office is his primary responsibility

State Auditor-elect Taylor Wettach, a Democrat from Muscatine, says maintaining the independence of the office is his primary responsibility. He’s also considering ways the auditor’s office could make all government spending more transparent. “So folks know where their hard-earned tax dollars are going and working with folks of either party or no party to continue that sort of focus,” he said. Wettach, a 35-year-old attorney, previously worked at a major New York City law firm where he reviewed and negotiated complex financial deals. Wettach says he’s looking forward to working with the accountants, auditors and Certified Fraud Examiners in the state auditor’s office. Wettach says he will continue many of the initiatives current State Auditor Rob Sand started, like allowing staff to live outside of central Iowa since audits are done throughout the state, as well as continuing the program that recognizes local Iowa governments for efficiency efforts. Wettach says part of his job will be ensuring the non-partisan staff can do their job effectively and that means more resources. “They’re career auditors. They’re career civil servants that are experts in what they do, that have been working in that office for years and years and years and are in that office because they believe in the public service of it,” Wettach said. “They’d get paid more if they worked in the private sector. They’re there because they’re true public servants.” Wettach’s term starts January 1. Wettach defeated Republican Chris Cournoyer in last week’s election by about 6,500 votes.

Iowa City schools audit reveals district had less money in fiscal 2025 than initially reported

IOWA CITY — The Iowa City school district had almost $38 million less money than it reported in a Certified Annual Report to the state in November 2025, a new audit shows. The fiscal 2025 audit shows the district ended that year June 30, 2025, with $24.5 million across all funds. That’s similar to districts with an enrollment of 3,000 students, according to an analysis of Certified Annual Reports from districts statewide. The Iowa City school district’s enrollment is about 14,400 students. The audit also shows that a capital projects fund — the Physical Plant and Equipment Levy, or PPEL — had a balance of $19.4 million but only $140,633 in cash at the end of fiscal 2025. Another capital projects fund — Secure An Advanced Vision for Education, or SAVE — owed PPEL $20.8 million. The money was used to pay SAVE’s debt payment on time. Overspending Last month, the Iowa City district shared that it overspent SAVE by more than $45 million over four fiscal years, using a fund primarily reserved to pay teacher and staff salaries to spend beyond its means. The fiscal 2025 audit revealed that SAVE was overspent by $33.5 million as of June 30,
