Throwback Thursday: Basketball Game Watch 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 23,200 images from KU’s University Archives and made them available online; be sure to check them out!
March Madness is one of our favorite times of the year, and we’re excited to spend many hours in the next few weeks watching the Jayhawks in the Big 12 and NCAA tournaments. Rock Chalk!
