Greetings, Jayhawks!
Kansas fans are gearing up for another exciting season of Jayhawk basketball, which began with Late Night in the Phog Oct. 17. In case you missed it, you can view a photo gallery of the annual event. Whether they're playing on the football field or the hardwood, we invite you to follow the ’Hawks wherever you live, and enjoy watching games in great KU company at a watch party near you.
University research is attracting national attention as well. Soon after the National Institutes of Health awarded KU the state's largest grant, the KU Hospital accepted a generous gift from philanthropist and civic leader Annette Bloch. Along with continued success in athletics and research, KU also is setting records in enrollment. The University enrolled the largest, brightest and most diverse freshman class yet this fall.
With so much excitement happening on the Hill, we hope you’ll return for Homecoming this weekend. Rock Chalk!
Warmest wishes from the Hill,
KU Alumni Association
