Submitted by Division of Communications and Marketing
Kansas State University faculty and staff can win prizes — including Apple Watches, Apple MacBook Pros, K-State Union gift cards and more — by getting the COVID-19 vaccination.
Every week the university draws names of faculty or staff members who meet the following requirements:
- Have been fully vaccinated or have completed their first dose of a two-dose series with the second dose scheduled.
- Have filled out the vaccination incentive program survey.
Weekly prize drawings will continue every Monday through Nov. 22. A list of prizes by level is available on the K-State COVID-19 website.
The ninth weekly drawing occurred on Monday, Nov. 8. The full list of prizes and the winners' units included:
- $50 K-State Student Union gift cards went to employees in the College of Veterinary Medicine, the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment, K-State Research and Extension, the Office of University Operations, the College of Architecture, Planning & Design, the College of Arts and Sciences and the College of Education.
- An Apple Watch went to an employee with K-State Libraries.
