LIVESTRONG Day 2008 was a huge success, thanks to you. KU hosted a campus walk for faculty, staff, students and Lawrence community members. 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 the folks who chose to wear yellow on May 13th. KU came out in force to support the fight against cancer, and we'll be doing even more in the months ahead. For now, enjoy this look back at the Lance Armstrong Foundation's LIVESTRONG Day 2008.
