As we blaze through the summer term and a fresh set of graduates enter the “real world”, we reflect on the achievements the new alumni made during their time at Kansas State University and are looking forward to the students that will move into their footsteps behind them.
Student highlights and awards
“Every year, our students make us proud, and this year was no exception. They represented our program brilliantly across and beyond campus. The graduating class of May 2015 was a particularly strong cohort with many students with distinctive college career. We cannot wait to see what great heights they will achieve in their post-K-State careers.” – Hikaru Peterson, Professor and Director of Undergraduate Programs.
The awards for this E-Newsletter includes honors College of Agriculture, the Alumni Association, Blue Key honor society, and many others.
