West of Kansas? Odd restriction.
I have two children attending George Mason now, including the one who served in the army and who I am always talking about. There is a statue of George Mason himself on campus (who happens to be my wife's great-something grandfather but he had many, many descendents). George Mason had something to do with the 2nd Admendment, you know. There's also an even larger statue of Confuscious but I don't think we're related. However, the school I went to had a statue of a mountaineer out in front of the student union building (the Mountainlair) and sure enough, he has a rifle.
