Throwback Thursday: Del Shankel 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 34,800 images from KU’s University Archives and made them available online; be sure to check them out!
This week we’re remembering former KU chancellor Del Shankel, who passed away on July 12th.
