Throwback Thursday: Boy Scout 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 21,700 images from KU’s University Archives and made them available online; be sure to check them out!
Happy birthday, Boy Scouts of America! The organization was founded on February 8, 1910.
