Newsmakers: K-Staters in the news

 

K-State's news services staff keeps track of news stories and features appearing in the media about K-State faculty, students and programs. If you know of a current article that we don't have listed, please let us know and we will add it.

K-State faculty members have a great reputation for being helpful to the news media. We see the results of this cooperation in national and regional news clips.
