Welcome Squalus, don't know to much about the area up around JC. There are a couple (that's what i heard) of shops in Lawrence and of course in KC. My LDS was talking about a remote store in the Manhattan area.
Get used to driving I haven't heard of any place to get wet up there, that is unless you like dark, dark water. Hey wait! That's a true mucker's love isn't it!
3 hours south and a little east will get you some good semi-flatland diving. Tablerock, Beaver, Oronogo. I plan on visiting Lake Ouachita (heard it is pro-nounced "w*******a") in the Hot Springs area. Friend of mine used to fish there and said it is some of the clearest water he had been on in the mid-west.
Welcome to the board, and the area

In Manhattan, there is "Aggie Dive Shop" & "Creative Travel & Scuba" or at least there used to be. I don't know where they do their OW, but it wouldn't hurt to ask. Maybe you could tag along and get some bottom time. Other than that, I know Lawrence still has a dive shop, and there are quite a few in KC. However, like frenchy said, the best diving you will find around Junction City is in SW Missouri & NW Arkansas!
