Save the Date: Annual KU Career Classic Golf Outing

The Career Development Center, in partnership with the KU Men’s Golf Club and College of Business, is hosting its third fundraising golf outing Friday, Sept. 13, Golden Oaks Golf Club, Fleetwood, Pa. In addition to golfing, this event features a networking lunch with KU students and faculty, great food, prizes, contests and more. Players of all skill levels are welcome. All funds raised through registrations and additional donations benefit KU students directly. Please share the following link with any staff, family or friends who may like to attend for golfing and/or lunch. Last year's golf outing was a hit - it sold out.

Weather

Weather forecasts are provided by KU's Dr. Michael Davis and "Monsoon Mike" Regensburger

A couple waves of low pressure combine into a larger low pressure and stall near the area, providing yet another unsettled day, but a little less unsettled than prior days with hopefully a few periods of partial sun. Still can't rule out a shower, however. Breezy. High 68.
