It was started by E.H.S. Bailey, a KU chemistry professor who wanted a cheer for his science club. Upon a train trip home from Wichita during the mid 1880’s, Bailey and some of his associates came up with a chant entitled “Rah, Rah, Jay Hawk, KU”, and patterned the rhythm from the cadence of their train as it rolled along the tracks. Bailey submitted the cheer to his club on May 21, 1886 and the words “Rock Chalk” later replaced “Rah, Rah” because it not only rhymed with Jayhawk, but also was symbolic of the chalky limestone (chalk rock) found on campus. The student newspaper officially adopted the chant on November 4, 1887 and it can now be heard from Kansas fans throughout the land.
