HANDBOOKS:
"Being a member of the KSU Marching Band is a very rewarding experience for me. Through my time in band, I have learned valuable leadership skills that will help me succeed in my engineering profession. Marching band provides the perfect balance between academic work and extracurricular activities. I always look forward to starting school in the fall. All the hard work in practice really pays off when I get to see the results on a K-State football Saturday."
Jonathan Draheim - Senior, Engineering
