NOTABLE ALUMS
Idaho's highest point, Borah Peak, is named for 1889 KU graduate William Borah, a highly influential and maverick Republican U.S. senator from 1906 to 1940. He was best known for his role in preventing the U.S. from joining the League of Nations. He later sponsored bills establishing the Department of Labor and the Children's Bureau. A bronze statue of Borah stands in the National Statuary Hall Collection in the U.S. Capitol.
