LIVESTRONG Day 2008

LIVESTRONG Day 2008 was a huge success, thanks to many of you in the KU community. LIVESTRONG KU hosted a Campus Walk for KU faculty, staff, students and Lawrence community members. Meanwhile, Oread Books held a sale in honor of LIVESTRONG Day, and several sororities purchased LIVESTRONG wristbands for members to wear, in addition to all of you who chose to wear yellow on May 13th in support of the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LAF).

KU came out in force to support the fight against cancer, and we'll be doing even more in the months ahead. We've already established a local LIVESTRONG Army recognized by the LAF, and Rueben Perez and I have been selected as delegates to the LIVESTRONG Summit in July. Our goal is to position KU as a national leader in the fight against cancer, and for that, we'll need your help. But for now, enjoy this look back at the Lance Armstrong Foundation's LIVESTRONG Day 2008.
