Staff
Kansas State University is an equal opportunity employer and actively seeks diversity among its employees.
The OAA staff consists of a Director, two Associate Directors and an Administrative Specialist. The director and each associate director serves as liaison between the OAA and certain academic and administrative units. However, in the absence of a unit's liaison, usually one of the other two staff will be available.
