Throwback Thursday: Snowball Fight Edition
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 19,500 images from KU’s University Archives and made them available online; be sure to check them out!
There might just be enough snow on the ground to follow the lead of these former Jayhawks.
Snowball fight near Old Fraser Hall (left) and Old Chemistry Hall (right), 1910s.
This would have been just to the east of where Watson Library now stands.
