》 EXPERIENCE KU
things KU students should do before they graduate
...according to the 2007 seniors
BY JACQUE LUMSDEN
Before graduation there are certain things every student must do. On top of the technical jazz passing a certain number of hours, taking the required courses and ordering graduation gear there are also the activities that make Lawrence and the University of Kansas unique.
10. Road trip with friends - Every student should experience this at least once.Nothing is more liberating then hopping in a car with your best buds,your favorite music and the best junk food,and driving for miles on open road.
9. Get published in the Free for All — Getting published basically means you're famous.

There is something for everyone on Massachusetts Street, from coffee shops to shopping to restaurants. Even if your cash is low, enjoy the outdoors and do some people watching.
8. Spend a day on Massachusetts Street — There is something for everyone on Massachusetts Street. An entire day could be spent shopping and eating here. Even if the cash flow is low, there is still plenty to do. Bring your camera for some fun pictures or just walk and enjoy the outdoors.
1. Spend time at Potter Lake — and not just after throwing in a goal post. Take the time to enjoy this wonderful part of our beautiful campus. Lay out, play Frisbee or just hang out with friends.
6. Pull an all-nighter at a KU
library — Be on campus when the sun sets and stay there until the sun rises. The libraries are full of places to explore, and with the right amount of studying, it's possible to actually be there all night.
5. Spend a day at Clinton Lake — Take the time to drive outside of Lawrence and enjoy the natural beauty of the area. Pack a lunch, grab the sunscreen and water gear, and enjoy a day of fun on the water with friends.
4. Tailgate for a football game at 8 a.m. — Wake up early and spend a day supporting Kansas athletics. Enjoy eggs when you start the tailgate and a hot dog later. Bring plenty of beverages and cheer the Jayhawks to victory.
1. Swim in the Chi Omega fountain — It's easy to tell when spring has sprung just by looking at the Chi Omega fountain. The tulips are in full bloom and students start to wade in the fountain. Go after class or in the middle of the night; any hour is a good time to spend in the fountain.
3. Camp out for a basketball game at Allen Fieldhouse
