The Dole Institute offers students of all ages and their teachers opportunities to grow their understanding of our country’s history and the democratic process, and opportunities to engage with politics and government at all levels. Become a leader in your community and make a difference.
The Robert and Elizabeth Dole Archives and Special Collections is one of the largest Congressional archives in the country, documenting the lives and careers of Senators Bob and Elizabeth Dole. Manuscripts, photographs, film, objects, and other unique materials document a wide range of topics central to the political, social, and cultural history of 20th century America and beyond.
Open to all students at the University of Kansas, the Dole Institute Student Advisory Board brings members of the Jayhawk community together who share common interests in community service, government, and politics. Together, they broaden our understanding of the U.S. and the world at large through discussions and events on all topics that intersect politics.
The Kansas Veterans Virtual Memory Wall at the Dole Institute proudly continues Senator Bob Dole’s commitment to honoring Kansas veterans past and present. Submit a profile and photo of a Kansan who served our country from World War II to today and your veteran will be featured digitally online via this portal, as well as in the halls of the Dole Institute alongside Senator Bob Dole and thousands of other Kansas service men and women.
