Kansas State University, originally named
Kansas State Agricultural College
, was founded in Manhattan on February 16, 1863, during the
American Civil War
, as a
land-grant institution
under the
Morrill Act
.
[9]
[13]
The school was the first land-grant college created under the Morrill Act.
[13]
[14]
K-State is the third-oldest school in the
Big 12 Conference
and the oldest public institution of higher learning in the state of Kansas.
[9]
The effort to establish the school began in 1861, the year that
Kansas
was admitted to the
United States
. One of the new
state legislature's
top priorities involved establishing a state university. That year, the delegation from Manhattan, led by New England abolitionist,
Isaac Goodnow
, introduced a bill to convert the private
Blue Mont Central College
in Manhattan, incorporated in 1858, into the state university.
[15]
But the bill establishing the university in Manhattan was controversially
vetoed
by Governor
Charles L. Robinson
of Lawrence, and an attempt to override the veto in the Legislature failed by two votes.
[16]
In 1862, another bill to make Manhattan the site of the state university failed by one vote.
[16]
Finally, upon the third attempt on February 16, 1863, the state accepted Manhattan's offer to donate the Blue Mont College building and grounds and established the state's land-grant college at the site ? the institution that would become Kansas State University.
[16]
When the college opened for its first session on September 2, 1863, it became only the
second public institution of higher learning to admit women and men equally
in the United States.
[17]
Enrollment for the first session totaled 52 students: 26 men and 26 women.
[13]
Twelve years after opening, the university moved its main campus from the location of
Blue Mont Central College
to its present site in 1875.
[13]
The original site is now occupied by Central National Bank of Manhattan and Founders Hill Apartments.
The early years of the institution witnessed debate over whether the college should provide a focused agricultural education or a full
liberal arts
education. During this era, the tenor of the school shifted with the tenure of college presidents. For example, President
John A. Anderson
(1873?1879) favored a limited education and President
George T. Fairchild
(1879?1897) favored a classic liberal education.
[13]
[18]
Fairchild was credited with saying, "Our college exists not so much to make men farmers as to make farmers men."
[13]
During this era, in 1873, Kansas State helped pioneer the academic teaching of
home economics
for women, becoming one of the first two colleges to offer the program of study.
[19]
[20]
In November 1928, the school was accredited by the Association of American Universities (AAU) as a school whose graduates were deemed capable of advanced graduate work.
[13]
The name of the school was changed in 1931 to
Kansas State College of Agriculture and Applied Science
. In 1959, the Kansas legislature changed the name again to
Kansas State University of Agriculture and Applied Science
to reflect a growing number of graduate programs. However, in modern practice, the "Agriculture and Applied Science" portion has usually been omitted even from official documents such as state statutes.
[21]
[22]
Milton S. Eisenhower
served as president from 1943 to 1950.
On June 15, 2009,
Kirk Schulz
became the 13th president of Kansas State University.
[23]
In March 2010 he announced his K-State 2025 plan.
[24]
The initiative is designed to elevate K-State to a top 50 nationally recognized research university by 2025. His last day was April 22, 2016, as he was selected as
Washington State University
's next president.
[25]
In late April 2016, Ret. General
Richard Myers
began serving as the interim president of Kansas State University
[26]
and was announced as the permanent 14th president on November 15, 2016.
[27]
He was succeeded by
Richard Linton
, a former dean of the College of Agriculture and Life Science at
North Carolina State University
(2012?2022).
[28]
Oldest public university in Kansas
[
edit
]
The state legislature established the state's
land-grant college
in
Manhattan
on January 13, 1863.
[17]
A commission to establish a state university in
Lawrence
was called for later in the same legislative session, provided that town could meet certain requirements, and finalized later that year.
[9]
Kansas State was the first public institution of higher learning founded in the state and began teaching college-level classes in 1863. By comparison, the University of Kansas opened in 1866, and offered only preparatory-level classes until college-level classes began in 1869.
Kansas State was founded with an agricultural and scientific college consistent with the land-grant college mandate, as well as departments for military science and literature.
[9]
It was formally renamed as
Kansas State University
in 1959.
[18]
Campus
[
edit
]
The main campus of Kansas State University in Manhattan now covers 668 acres (2.70 km
2
). The campus is historic, featuring more
buildings built before 1910
than any other campus in Kansas. Holtz Hall, built in 1876, is the oldest free-standing building on campus.
[13]
However, the oldest building on campus is the original section of
Seaton Hall
, which now forms Seaton Court, facing the courtyard of
Hale Library
and Eisenhower Hall. Originally named the Industrial Workshop, this section of Seaton Hall is the oldest remaining education building on the Manhattan campus.
[13]
The predominant architectural feature of the Manhattan campus is its use of native
limestone
. This includes the signature building at Kansas State University,
Anderson Hall
, developed in three stages between 1877 and 1885. Anderson Hall, now listed on the
National Register of Historic Places
, has housed the university's administrative offices for more than a century. Dickens Hall was constructed in 1908 and currently houses the statistics and philosophy departments. Although there are many historic building on the campus, since 1986 Kansas State has also added over two million square feet (186,000 m
2
) of new buildings to the campus, including an expanded library, new art museum, and plant sciences building.
Several of the buildings on campus were heavily damaged by an EF4
tornado
on
June 11, 2008
. Damage estimates totaled more than $20 million.
[29]
Since 2014, the Main campus has been under significant renovation to accommodate infrastructure changes. The campus is also adopting a more walking friendly atmosphere by closing off many small access roads to vehicles.
[30]
Academics
[
edit
]
Since 1986, Kansas State ranks first nationally among public universities in its total of
Rhodes
,
Marshall
,
Truman
,
Goldwater
, and Udall scholars with 147 recipients.
[40]
The school is a member of the Midwestern Association of Graduate Schools, and is home to the Kansas Beta chapter of the
Phi Beta Kappa
honor society. The institution petitioned in 1925, and three years later received, a charter of
Mortar Board
National College Senior Honor Society.
Kansas State University has 65 academic departments in nine colleges:
Agriculture
; Architecture, Planning and Design; Arts and Sciences; Business Administration; Education; Engineering; Health and Human Sciences;
Technology and Aviation
; and Veterinary Medicine. The graduate school offers 65 master's degree programs and nearly 50 doctoral programs.
In 1991, the former Kansas Technical Institute in
Salina, Kansas
was merged with Kansas State University by an act of the Kansas legislature. The College of Technology and Aviation is at the Salina campus. Initially, this campus was referred to as Kansas State University ? Salina, but on October 14, 2014, the Kansas Board of Regents approved a name change to Kansas State University Polytechnic Campus.
[41]
The campus was again renamed in 2021 to Kansas State University Salina Aerospace and Technology Campus.
[42]
In 2018, the Kansas Board of Regents approved that the name of the College of Engineering should be changed to the
Carl R. Ice
College of Engineering in Ice's honor.
[43]
Research
[
edit
]
Agriculture
[
edit
]
The university has had a long-standing interest in
agriculture
, particularly native
Great Plains
plant and animal life. The
Kansas State University Gardens
is an on-campus
horticulture
display garden that serves as an educational resource and learning laboratory for K-State students and the public. The
Konza Prairie
is a native tallgrass prairie preserve south of Manhattan, which is co-owned by
The Nature Conservancy
and Kansas State University and operated as a field research station by the department of biology. The university also owns an additional 18,000 acres (73 km
2
) in cities across the state that it operates as Agricultural Experiment Stations in research centers in Hays, Garden City, Colby, and Parsons.
In 2006, K-State dedicated the Biosecurity Research Institute.
[44]
The BRI, in Pat Roberts Hall, is a safe and secure location in which scientists and their collaborators can study high-consequence pathogens. It was designed and constructed for biosafety level 3 (BSL-3) and biosafety level 3 agriculture (BSL-3Ag) research.
[45]
The university's research facilities include the James R. Macdonald Laboratory for research in atomic, molecular and optical physics and the
NASA
Center for Gravitational Studies in Cellular and Developmental Biology. The
excimer laser
, which made
LASIK
eye surgery possible, is a technology developed by Kansas State researchers.
[46]
Radio & television
[
edit
]
Kansas State was involved in early experimentation with television and radio broadcasts. The first radio station licensed in Manhattan was Kansas State's experimental station 9YV.
[47]
In 1912 the station began a daily broadcast (in
morse code
) of the
weather forecast
, becoming the first radio station in the U.S. to air a regularly-scheduled forecast.
[48]
[49]
After a series of efforts to secure a more high-powered signal for the university ? including a brief cooperation with
John R. Brinkley
's notorious KFKB ? Kansas State was granted a license for
KSAC
, which began broadcasting with 500 watts of power on December 1, 1924.
[49]
The station was reassigned to the frequency of AM 580 in 1928, and continued broadcasting on that frequency until November 27, 2002, when it made its last broadcast after the frequency was bought out by
WIBW
in
Topeka, Kansas
.
[49]
On March 9, 1932, the
Federal Radio Commission
granted Kansas State a license to operate the television station W9XAK.
[50]
It was the first television station in
Kansas
.
[51]
Activity on the station peaked in 1933 and 1934, with original programs being produced three nights a week. On October 28, 1939, the station broadcast the
Homecoming football game
in Manhattan between
Kansas State
and
Nebraska
, which was the second college football game ever televised.
[52]
The station went off the air in 1939.
[50]
K-State Research Exchange
[
edit
]
K-State Research Exchange, referred to as K-REx, is a local branding of Kansas State University's implementation of
DSpace
.
[53]
[54]
Kansas State University graduate students are required to submit an electronic version of their thesis, dissertation, or report, and then are made openly available through the K-State Research Exchange (K-REx), and become indexed by search engines.
[55]
[56]
Campus life
[
edit
]
The university is home to several museums, including the
Marianna Kistler Beach Museum of Art
, the KSU Historic Costume and Textiles Museum, the K-State Insect Zoo, and the Chang, Chapman, and Kemper galleries, which feature faculty and student artwork. The university also offers an annual cycle of performance art at McCain Auditorium, including concerts, plays and dance.
[58]
The former All-University Convocation lecture series ? which began with a speech by
Harry Golden
on April 3, 1963, and ended in 1997
[59]
? brought to campus prominent leaders such as
Martin Luther King Jr.
, Supreme Court Justices
Byron White
and
William O. Douglas
, Senate Minority Leader
Everett Dirksen
, Rep.
Shirley Chisholm
, and thinkers such as
Arthur C. Clarke
,
Benjamin Spock
,
Betty Friedan
,
Buckminster Fuller
, and
Saul Alinsky
.
Student life
[
edit
]
K-State has twelve residence halls on campus: Boyd Hall,
Ford Hall
,
Goodnow Hall
,
Haymaker Hall
,
Marlatt Hall
,
Moore Hall
,
West Hall
, Putnam Hall, Van Zile Hall, and the new Wefald hall, completed in 2016.
[60]
The Living Community at Jardine, and Smurthwaite, as well as Jardine Apartments. Smurthwaite, Ford, and Boyd Halls are all female. Haymaker and Marlatt Halls were all-male residence halls until the fall semesters of 2002 and 2009 respectively, when they became co-educational.
[61]
The residence halls are divided into three complexes: Derby, Kramer, and Strong.
[62]
K-State implemented an
academic honor code
in 1999.
[63]
When students are admitted, it is implied that they will adhere to the Honor Pledge: "On my honor, as a student, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this academic work."
Kansas State has more than 400 student organizations.
[64]
Student media include
KSDB-FM
"Wildcat 91.9",
KKSU-LD
"Channel 8", the
Kansas State Collegian
, and the
Royal Purple Yearbook
.
Alma Mater
is the name of the official school song of Kansas State University. In 1888, when the university was still Kansas State Agricultural College, H.W. Jones submitted the song as part of a school-wide contest. It was originally a four-stanza song and, over the years, some lyrics have changed.
[65]
The song is sung at most K-State sporting events by fans, students and alumni.
Wildcat Victory
and
Wabash Cannonball
are both commonly used as fight songs. Wildcat Victory is used by many high schools as their fight song. Since the early 2010s, K-State students have chanted obscenities at sporting events toward their rival, the
University of Kansas
, to
Darude
's
Sandstorm
and the Wabash Cannonball. This tradition has continued despite the efforts of Hall of Fame Football Coach
Bill Snyder
, Kansas State Basketball Coach,
Jerome Tang
, and Band Director, Frank Tracz.
[66]
[67]
[68]
Fraternities and sororities
[
edit
]
There are dozens of national and international fraternities and sororities at Kansas State University.
Athletics
[
edit
]
Intercollegiate sports began at Kansas State in the 1890s. The school's sports teams are called the Wildcats, and they participate in the
NCAA Division I
and the
Big 12 Conference
. The
official school color
is
Royal Purple
, making Kansas State one of very few schools (alongside
Syracuse
[69]
and
Harvard
[70]
) that have only one official color.
[71]
White and silver are commonly used as complementary colors; white is mentioned with purple in the university's fight song "Wildcat Victory." The athletics logo is a stylized Wildcat head in profile usually featured in the school color, called the "Powercat."
Sports sponsored by the school include
football
,
basketball
,
cross country
and
track
,
baseball
,
golf
,
tennis
,
rowing
, women's soccer, and
volleyball
. The head football coach is
Chris Klieman
, the head men's basketball coach is
Jerome Tang
,
[72]
the head women's basketball coach is
Jeff Mittie
, and the head baseball coach is
Pete Hughes
. In 2012?2013, Kansas State became only the second Big 12 school to win conference titles in football, men's basketball, and baseball in the same school year.
[73]
Historically,
African-American
athletes at Kansas State were responsible for breaking the modern "color barrier" in
Big Seven Conference
athletics. Harold Robinson became the first African-American athlete in the conference in more than two decades and the first ever to receive a scholarship, playing football for Kansas State in 1949. In the spring of 1951 the conference's baseball color barrier was broken by Kansas State's
Earl Woods
, and in the winter of 1951?1952 Kansas State's Gene Wilson broke the conference color barrier in basketball (together with
LaVannes Squires
at the
University of Kansas
).

[
edit
]
In line with its roots as a land grant college, a number of Kansas State's most eminent
faculty
in its earliest years were in the areas of agriculture, science and military. For example, famed geologist
Benjamin Franklin Mudge
was chair of the geology department, while famed Army officer
Andrew Summers Rowan
, the subject of the essay
A Message to Garcia
, served as professor of military tactics.
Kansas State faculty have received a number of awards.
