Throwback Thursday: Sorority Recruitment Edition, Part II
Each week we’ll be posting a photograph from University Archives that shows a scene from KU’s past. We’ve also scanned more than 34,800 images from KU’s University Archives and made them available online; be sure to check them out!
With the start of the fall semester right around the corner, there will be lots of activity on campus next week – including recruitment for KU’s sororities and fraternities.

was established in 1873, making it the first sorority at KU. University Archives Photos.
