KU senior class wants new flagpole

Kansas University’s senior class of 2009 is trying to replace the flagpole in front of Strong Hall.

The Board of Class Officers is raising funds to replace the pole, estimated to cost about $6,000.

The current pole is leaning and the metal is beginning to corrode. A new pole would be constructed of stainless steel, have a bronze finish and would be about the same height as the current one.
