The University of Kansas, Lawrence. Fondly known as KU to the locals. This is where my daughter Nicole goes to school for the past 4 years. I have had uncountable FaceTime videos with her throughout her study here and I have seen buildings that she walks to to attend her classes. I get to see the whole campus in person now.
This campus is gigantic. We needed 2 days to cover the whole campus by foot. However, today, we managed to visit the Student Union, a library, a museum and just enjoyed walking around the campus. It was a hot day but the the breeze was cool.
KU is the home of the Jayhawk. The name Jayhawk was coined in 1848; it was a combination of the Blue Jay and a sparrow hawk. The Jayhawk is a mythical creature.
