The fund-raising kickoff was part of KU ROTC天, which also included a fly-by of four F-16 fighter planes before the game, a pre-game march and riffle team demonstration by the three ROTC branches.

Scott's never been so driven
Have fun and make better grades? Fat chance. At least that's what Scott used to think Before he knew just what a Macintosh computer could do.
Now he's doing more school work in less time with better results. A Macintosh gives you more time to study. That's the hardest part of school. Then, when you're ready to sit down and type your paper or design your project, the Macintosh has every tool you'll need to produce great-looking work quickly.
You'll have a powerful typewriter with correction fluid, a trash can, desk, dictionary folders, calculator, plenty of markers and pens, rulers, scissors, glue, and a copy machine.
Plus, it's easy to learn how to use a Macintosh. Chances are, you how in about an hour. Then the time you save making better grades can be spent having the fun you should.
You'll be amazed at the results. So will your parents.
The power to do your best at KU
