Greetings, Jayhawks!
Memories of 2007 will soon be frozen in the history books, as we look forward to another successful year on Mount Oread, beginning with the 2008 legislative session. You can support KU’s efforts in Topeka by joining Jayhawks for Higher Education, who advocate for a stronger KU.
This month, we highlight some of the ways KU works for Kansas by addressing the state’s growing shortage of pharmacists. Meanwhile, the University continues to bring national recognition and distinction to the state with impressive rankings for the law and business schools, as well as the KU debate team.
And don’t think we’ve forgotten about our sensational football and basketball teams! We have much to celebrate this holiday season. Here’s to a wonderful holiday and a joyous new year!
Warmest wishes from the Hill,
KU Alumni Association
