Extractions: Date: 02/14/01 22:15 TOPEKA Reversing a decision that sparked international criticism and 18 months of tension, the Kansas Board of Education on Wednesday approved new science standards that emphasize evolution. A feeling of relief settled in the packed meeting room after the vote, but several board members and observers said the debate was far from finished. "I'm really gratified that this chapter is over," said John Staver, a Kansas State University professor and co-chairman of the 27-member committee of science educators who wrote the new standards. But, he said, "the book is not closed." Businessman Dave Raffel of Shawnee, an evolution supporter, said, "This is one step down along a long road that there doesn't seem to be any end to." Critics of the board's vote said the Kansas debate had opened a floodgate that couldn't be closed. Eight television cameras including one from CNN panned the board as members voted 7-3 for the new standards, which also include references to the big-bang theory and the age of the Earth that were eliminated in the previous version.
