Ann Miller
1976-1979, Master of Science (MS)
KU is great for many academic reasons, but the school spirit will give one years of fun as you greet Jayhawks around the country with the favorite chant, "ROCK CHALK". It is fun to share college stories and sports memories!
Lee McCroskey
1975-1982, Masters, English
KU? Kansas? I imagined a boring, flat campus complete with tumbleweeds and non-descript buildings....but I discovered a great place to spend my undergrad and graduate years: one of the prettiest, most welcoming campuses in America, with great professors and tons of activities and options to get engaged. KU was a great springboard into my career. Bonus: I made some great life-long friends.
Caleb Hays
2012-2014, Master of Business Administration (MBA), Marketing, Entrepreneurship
KU provides an excellent academic education, while also building the entire individual. I have never felt more at home anywhere than at The University of Kansas. Students, faculty, and alumni all over the world are proud to call themselves Jayhawks, and that penchant for excellence shows through in everything that happens on Mount Oread.
