Welcome

Welcome to JayhawkWorld.com! We have some exciting plans for the new website, and we'll be rolling them out over the near future.

As a lifelong Kansan, and Lawrencian, I've learned a great deal about the culture that derived from the jayhawkers. While most people recognize the creature as it has evolved in its current iteration, jayhawks have a long history and the mythical bird has appeared in many forms.

As much as I am a jayhawker, I'm also a great fan of the Univsersity of Kansas and the sporting teams that represent my university. This site, of course, isn't affiliated with either the University or the Athletics Department, but I'll provide links so you can find and support the University and K.U. Athletics.

What I want the site to become is an information site about jayhawks, as well as a place where jayhawkers can come together in their shared love of the bird, so check back frequently!
