Crimson L1ncffBl'ue by Gina Thornburg The University of Kansas adopted the colors of crimson and blue in 1896. The University originally used the colors of the Univer- sity of Michigan, maize and sky blue. These colors stayed with the University of Kansas until the first intercollegiate football team played in 1890. At that point, University officials decided that crimson would become a spirit color for the University. They did so because a Harvard man, Col. john I. McCook, had given money for the playing field. Yale's blue became the other color after Yale graduate faculty members decided that they did not want their alma mater forgotten, After the adoption of the crimson and blue in 1896 the University never changed the colors again, withstanding the passage of 100 years at the University.
