Change of Plans REBECCA VRBAS THE COLLEGIAN

Administration is requesting community input following alterations to the K-State 2025 visionary goal.

The K-State 2025 plan was launched in September 2011, with the paramount goal to be recognized as a Top 50 Public Research University by 2025.

The draft for the goal now states: “By 2025, Kansas State University will be a premier, student-centered, public research university serving communities at home and across the globe

through our land-grant mission.”

Provost Charles Taber addressed the reasons behind this change in an email.

“We believe that it is important that our vision follow directly from our land-grant mission,” Taber said. “Our aspiration to be a Top 50 Public Research University, which was the previous visionary goal, has not changed, but we see Top 50 status as a metric f o r mea-

suring our progress toward being a premier, student-centered, public research university.”

Taber said there are many factors that have changed, both at the university and community level, in the past decade. “ T h e economy is different, our role in economic development, enrollment, the competitive land-

scape in higher education,” Taber said in an email. “Our biggest current challenges revolve around budget and enrollment.”

President Richard Myers and Taber echoed these sentiments in a K-State Today announcement on Sept.

30.

“This is a great time to refresh our plan and define strategic initiatives to address challenges that have evolved over the last several years and take us to the successful completion of K-State 2025,” the announcement reads.

Of the six planned phases, K-State 2025 Refresh is currently in the second: explore strategic initiatives.

This phase involves facilitated planning groups — organized by the provost and president’s offices — including members from across the university community, exploring four strategic areas of focus: global food, health, and biosecurity; aviation; the cyber land-grant university; and innovation in education.

The phase will also re-

view feedback from annual visits to colleges and major units to consult with faculty and staff, as well as online survey, available through December, requesting university community feedback about the vision, values and university metrics of K-State 2025.

“The purpose of the meetings is to have robust discussion of our values and work to define priorities for the next five years of our strategic plan,” Myers and Taber wrote in their K-State Today letter.

The schedule for the college visits, taking place through Dec.11, can be found in the Sept. 12 issue of K-State Today.

“We have just announced the draft vision and visionary goal and the set of strategic initiatives and have set up a process to collect feedback,” Taber said. “We have visited with the College of Veterinary Medicine, the Graduate School, and the Office of the Vice President for Research so far to discuss the 2025 refresh.”

The final phase, rolling out the updated plan, is set for September 2020.

“We have just started, but we have gotten excellent feedback from our 2025 visits so far,” Taber added.

Multicultural student center work on schedule

by Rachel Hogan Work on the Morris Family Multicultural Student Center is on schedule to be completed in time for the fall 2020 semester, said Adrian Rodriguez, associate vice president for student life of diversity and multicultural student affairs.

Utilities relocation and upgrades began last week, as crews cut into Mid-Campus Drive.

“We just got started with site preparation, and the utilities project is the first thing that they’re getting into right now,” Rodriguez said.

Chilled water, steam, sewer and power lines will be rerouted to accommodate and provide service for the future center. Once the utilities project is completed, Rodriguez said work will move on to excavation, shoring and foundation work.

The Multicultural Student Center has been in the works for several years. In 2015, Kirk Schulz, then-university president, announced plans to begin securing donations for a “Campus Multicultural Center” in a letter to students at the start of the 2015-2016 academic year.

“It’s been a longtime vision for the university,” Rodriguez said. “It goes back to some great student leaders, faculty, staff that have advocated for the need for a Multicultural Student Center.”

Rodriguez said the momentum on the project picked up in the last few years.

“This is something that has been a vision and longed for for some years now, but in the last couple years we’ve had a great deal of momentum generated in the last two years with some great fundraising that has moved us much closer to bringing the building to fruition,” he said.

Q&A: Kris Kobach discusses gubernatorial race, senate race on Kultivate podcast PETER LOGANBILL THE COLLEGIAN

Peter Loganbill, Collegian news editor: “When you were running for governor, I remember you spent a lot of time talking about immigration ... The question for me was why did you spend so much time on a national issue like that when you were running for something at the state level?”

Kris Kobach, U.S. Senate candidate, former gubernatorial candidate and former Kansas secretary of state: “Yes. Well, part of it is that, you know, I've devoted the last two decades of my career to fighting illegal immigration, and it is a federal issue. There are some ways in which states can help the federal government by decreasing incentives, like public benefits that the Kansas government is giving to illegal aliens. So I thought we could, you know, do some things to also prohibit sanctuary cities in Kansas. So there are some some things that could have

Illustration by Abigail Compton been done and I think should be done at the state level. But you're absolutely right, that the vast majority of work on immigration, and the vast majority of effort to stop illegal immigration has to happen at the federal level.”

Loganbill: “[Former K-State President Jon Wefald] called Pat Roberts the real MVP of the school.

It was pretty funny, and he said that

Pat Roberts just did a lot, a lot of help in securing federal funding for the school. Do you think, are you going to work to have that type of relationship here?”

Kobach: “Absolutely. I mean, you know, KU and K-State are great institutions.”

Loganbill: “Well, one's better right?”

Kobach: “Well, of course, but the U.S. senator from Kansas should have a good relationship with the president of the universities in Kansas to make sure that our universities are absolutely, you know, seen for what they are, which are real gems, especially in the Midwest region, of great higher education institutions. And when there are federal grants, when there are projects, where K-State can be vying for that project, if the U.S. senator can do something to help move the ball then absolutely.”

Jardine’s Furry Friends 5k encourages mental, physical wellbeing ANNA SCHMIDT THE COLLEGIAN

The Residents Assistants of Jardine hosted the Furry Friends 5k on Sunday in partnership with Peer Advocates for Mental Wellness and Success, Riley County Fire and Police departments and Lafene Health Center.Five resident assistants planned the race.

The planning committee chose to put on this event because it encourages well-being. Junior in animal science and industry Samantha Newberry is a member of the committee.

“For this event we pushed dogs being there as a mental health aspect … as well as running being involved because there are just so many signs that show that being active and being around people is just really positive and really good for your individual wellbeing, and that is what we were going for with this event,” Newberry said.

The committee met for

about an hour once a week to straighten out logistics. Caleb Keltner, sophomore in economics, mapped out the course.

“I already liked running, so I had a general idea of what I wanted to do,” he said. “I was told to keep the course within Jardine confines or at least the campus ...

So I looked at the Snapchat map which outlines the K-State campus, and stayed within those confines … and then tracked the distance and came up with a route.”

The 5k brought out 18 runners and several furry friends.

Most participants were Jardine residents, as the race was primarily advertised by printed flyers throughout Jardine.

Gleyder Roman Sosa, postdoc in veterinary medicine, finished first with a time of 21:18.

“My RA was encouraging me to run from the very beginning so I decided to come out,” Sosa said. “I like to run a lot and I like to run with people. The puppies are fun too, so it was a good run and I had a lot of fun.”

Apparel and textiles junior debuts collection at KC Fashion Week JULIE FREIJAT

THE COLLEGIAN

When Gracie Key was in third grade, her grandmother bought her a sewing machine. About 10 years later, Key designed and exhibited her own collection of clothing for Kansas City Fashion Week.

A junior in apparel and textiles, Key said she knew she wanted to go into fashion for a long time, but there was a key moment when she knew for sure she wanted to dedicate her life to it.

“I guess the turning point was whenever I was a junior or senior in high school, and I made my senior prom dress,” she said. “I’d decided to go into fashion design before that, but that was kind of the moment I was like, ‘Yes — that’s what I want to do in my life.’”

Key said it took her a few months to complete the dress and she still has it. She said it is interesting to look at how far she has come since then. In mid-September, Key debuted an entire collection at Kansas City Fashion Week.

“I applied a few months beforehand, and then when I got the interview — I was just really excited,” she said. “Everybody there is so friendly, and they immediately accepted me, even though I’m a student. And they were accommodating in every single way possible for my situation. So, it was really neat.”

Key said she called her collection the “Kennedy Collection” and in its inspired by former first lady Jackie Kennedy.

“She made this like huge statement, she was this graceful person that people [of all ages] looked up to,” Key said. “That’s why I chose her as my inspiration.”

Key said she had already planned out some designs, but once she was accepted to present, she was given feedback and made adjustments.

“It was actually an idea that I kind of had been cultivating for a while,” she said. “Then, I was really set on it; I really loved it. That’s when I chose to apply to Kansas City Fashion Week, because I knew that I could make something great out of it and I wanted that to be my debut — my first fashion show. I had designed most of the pieces by then, but I also made adjustments.”

Key said she was excited for the

show after months and months of preparation.

“When I finally got there, it was kind of surreal, because I was standing backstage — and of course the designer walks after everybody — and I was watching it go, and I was like ,‘This has literally like been like six months of my life going,’” she said. “It was really kind of happy [and] sad, because I was so excited. I watched them, and it was like something that I’ll never forget because it was so — I can’t even put it into words, it was just so great to see that for the first time.”

Professor of apparel, textiles and interior, Sherry Haar, said Key was a hard worker in her classes and she was proud when she saw the video of Key’s collection.

“Gracie, like actually many of

our students, [is] very willing to learn, and that’s a trait that not all students have, right?” she said. “However, we do have really good students, like Gracie, that want feedback, and they listen to the feedback, and they apply the feedback — because they want to learn and they want to grow in their strengths, and is this characteristic of Gracie.”

Key said her parents’ support has helped her through her endeavors, as well as encouragement from her friends and community.

“Before I decided to go into fashion design as a major, I was talking to my mom, and I was like, ‘Oh, like I don’t know if this something that I really want to do,’” she said. “[When] you think of being an artist, you think of like a starving artist — people that don’t ever make

it. And she was like, ‘No, there’s tons of stuff that you can do like even if you’re not famous like there’s like so many career paths you can take with that.’”

Yingying Wu, assistant professor in apparel, textiles and interior design, said though Key is a quiet student, she is always paying attention and working hard.

“She’s very good at time management, I would say,” she said.

“Because for studio courses — [they] usually take like three hours long, and if they were given time to work on their project or assignment in the class, Gracie is the kind of student who always does work in the class.”

Wu said she was excited to hear that Key was going to present a collection at Kansas City Fashion Week.

“Her designs [are] very Gracie,”

she said. “I can tell the work she presented in the fashion show represented her aesthetics and also a lot of those works felt familiar because that’s the kind of design — based on her performance in the class, that’s her aesthetics. Everything looks very coherent.”

Key said she has been taking orders from people who want to buy from her collection, which she said is exciting. She said she has come far since debating whether or not to go into fashion, and said she never would have thought she would be where she is today.

“I feel like if you have a dream or have something that you think is impossible usually is very possible, you just have to set your mind to it,” Key said. “Which is cheesy, but it’s true though.”

Beer and pizza prices increase significantly with small difference in Student Price Index

Dropped a class?

Illustration by Bailey Britton

BAILEY BRITTON THE COLLEGIAN

Students wanting to see the most bang for their buck can rest easy knowing the only significant increase in the 2019 Student Price Index was in beer and pizza. The Student Price Index released by the K-State Economics Club revealed a overall 0.4 percent increase from 2018.

In 2018, students saw an increase of 3.5 percent.

The SPI is based on purchases made by typical Kansas State students and includes tuition, gas, housing, pizza, beer, groceries and more.

Pizza had the highest increase at 18.2 percent. “[P]izza, which was one of the few prices that in-

creased significantly is still available at a considerably lower price if I go pick up the pizza myself,” Cody Murphy, freshman in engineering, said in a press release. “Only a change in the cost of delivery has led to the price increase evident in the SPI for this good.”

Beer had an increase of 8.9 percent.

“Beer generally has many substitutes for those wanting to consume alcohol in some form, such as wine and spirits,” Mitchell Taylor, junior in economics and club treasurer said. “As a result, beer prices are likely elastic, meaning that students will likely consume much less beer on average as the price keeps increasing at such a rate. Our executive council has been

discussing surveying more bars and restaurants in the future to get a better picture of overall beer prices in Aggieville.”

Other increases were groceries at 1.5 percent and textbooks at 2 percent. Decreases included gasoline at 7.4 percent and non-greek housing at 4.8 percent.

The main reason the SPI increase was low is due to tuition which was unchanged from last year. In addition, movie ticket prices, ICAT tickets and internet prices remained steady.

Karsen Adams, president of the Economics Club and junior in economics, said it is unusual to have no major inflation affecting students.

Sometimes, Adams said, no news is news.

In heartfelt SGA address, bands’ director says he won’t retire until he sees problems solved THE COLLEGIAN

Director of bands Frank Tracz shared the struggles of the Kansas State Marching Band.

Frank Tracz, director of bands and professor of music, said he won't retire until the band program's budget and funding is secure. Or until January of 2036, which is when he turns 80.

In his address to Student Governing Association on Thursday, Tracz said his budget was $53,000 when he first started at K-State.

The amount provided to the Marching Band by Kansas State hasn't changed since then, but K-State Athletics supplements the budget with an additional $200,000.

Assistant director of

bands Alex Wimmer, Tracz said, is the lowest paid assistant director in the Big 12 conference. With a doctorate degree, he makes a $56,000 salary.

"We're hoping really hard for a salary increase for Alex Wimmer," Tracz said.

"He's applying for other jobs and I'm encouraging him to do that. I'm making phones calls. He will move someplace and he'll work a lot less and make $30,000 more."

In addition, Tracz said the band is the only one in the Big 12 without an indoor facility to practice in.

"If it lightnings or rains outside and McCain Auditorium is booked, we go in All Faiths Chapel, and if you play in there, it's dangerous," Tracz said. "So we will have a meeting of 410 kids paying tuition for a class they don't

have a classroom for."

Currently, Tracz said there is an assessment to turn West Stadium into an area for the band.

While Tracz has a masters degree, he said that music and directing the K-State band only takes up 10 percent of his time. Something Tracz says he spends more time on recently is visiting students suffering with mental illnesses and other crises.

Once upon a time, he said, it happened once or twice a semester. Now, it's at least once a week.

"I spend way more time doing things I never learned how to do," Tracz said. "All that matters to me is that you come here ... you do your thing and you belong. Nothing else matters to me. All that matters is that you're a good person. They're great

REVIEW: ‘Taking Steps’ mixes humor, creative set design RYAN URBAN

THE COLLEGIAN

The theatre department opened its season on Thursday in the Mark A. Chapman Theatre with “Taking Steps”

by Alan Ayckbourn, directed by professor of theatre Jennifer Vellenga.

“Taking Steps” is a comedic show about a dysfunctional group of characters: a landlord, a docile solicitor, an alcoholic owner of a successful bucket business, an indecisive dancer, her brother and his girlfriend. The plot revolves around the different characters not knowing who is in the Victorian mansion and where they are as the landlord attempts to cut a deal to sell the house. This results in a series of hilarious interper-

sonal reactions between the characters and the drama that unfolds. I won’t spoil this for you — the show is worth the ticket.

The cast makes use of a set that has been uniquely — and very cleverly —designed.

The Chapman Theatre’s extended thrust is excellently used in separating the three different levels of the house, featuring a living room, and two bedrooms “stacked” above each other, all on the one stage floor. A chandelier, hung from the ceiling of the living room, illustrated the separation between floors: when one character dances in a bedroom on the middle level (a wonderfully choreographed comedic number) the chandelier above would shake, noticed by the actors in the living room. Overall the

set and the actors’ interaction with both each other and with the different rooms on each level held the audience’s suspension of disbelief.

Additionally, the actors made use of “flat steps,” carpet squares arranged to simulate the non-existent staircases. The cast stepped with hilariously high knees (and sometimes other equally as funny actions) “up and down” the steps — one of the show’s best running jokes.

The costumes, hair and makeup reflected the characters’ daily lives and personalities, with a British flair that fit the show. Lighting matched the setting and storms of London as well as the use of props, as the cast turned lamps on and off in different rooms.

The only true problem

the show suffers from is the actors’ constant competition for the audience’s attention across different “levels” of the house. For example, while a scene between two characters takes place in the living room, a second comedic scene begins on the third level — either emphasizing the point of the character’s dialogue or an addition to the show to emphasize that the other character’s ambitions may not be as clean as they pretend to be — distracting from the scene already taking place and to the many moving characters already on set. However, it should be noted that even in a blunder of accidentally knocking a prop lamp off a table opening night, senior in theatre Olivia Carter, who played former dancer Elizabeth Crabbe, recovered

flawlessly, with the rest of the cast going about their business onstage as they should.

Overall, the cast was a cohesive ensemble of relatively experienced actors who put on a great show about a British farce. “Taking Steps” will continue to run in the Chapman Theatre in from Oct. 10-12 and 17-20, with tickets for $11 available online and at the box office outside the theatre. For anyone looking for a good laugh, this is your chance.

Adulting 101 workshop series picks up where academia leaves off SIERRA STAATZ

THE COLLEGIAN

A new series of seminars hosted by the WellCAT Ambassadors aimed at teaching students skills like car maintenance and food safety has arrived.

Megan Katt, WellCAT Ambassadors’ adviser and health educator at Lafene Health Center, said she believes life skills fall to the wayside in favor of academia.

“People are being trained in their field – chemistry, architecture, math,” Katt said.

“Life skills have been pushed aside.”

WellCAT Ambassadors,

a departmental student organization under Lafene, is a group of certified peer health educators “We are the liaison for all things health related,” Katt said. “This connects Lafene to other resources on campus and the student body. Peer educators focus on topics like sexual health, mental health, nutrition, physical activity and more.”

The idea for an “adulting” series arose after the program wanted to expand their presentations, said Anna Capps, WellCAT ambassador and junior in nutritional sciences.

“Ideas such as leasing tips and cooking meals came up,”

she said. “After we continued talking, we decided that a series would be an opportunity for us to choose an array of different topics that college students would find useful in regard to adulting.”

From there, Adulting 101 was born, giving students eight different opportunities this semester to learn a variety of life skills. All workshops are partnered other organizations on campus specializing in a specific life skill — from cooking with Kramer Dining Center to housing information with Sarah Barr, Student Legal Services attorney.

Three workshops have occurred so far — the first focused on car maintenance.

“We had students from [Manhattan Area Technical College] demonstrate how to check fluids and how to change a flat tire,” Capps said. “This workshop was really hands-on, and it was great to learn from other students too.”

The latest workshop on food safety partnered with Kramer. Students received a food thermometer. The next workshop, focused on conflict resolution, will be Tuesday, Oct. 22.

“Conflict resolution is geared toward relationship issues and how to have that

conversation, or working with different personality types in the workforce,” Katt said.

Another workshop with Powercat Financial will focus on money and finances.

“We are all facing the challenge of paying for college and also preparing for our future careers,” Capps said. “It can be hard to see how these money choices now will affect our lives later, but this event will help bring to light what we can be doing now to manage our finances.”

WellCAT Ambassadors is recruiting for next semester’s team. If students are inter-

ested, they are encouraged to apply by Oct 25.

“Students should join this program because it offers an excellent opportunity to become a leader and advocate for well-being along with other driven students,” Capps said. “I am proud of how WellCAT Ambassadors has grown in the past year. I believe that discussing mental health is crucial, and I am glad we are incorporating mental health into our presentation programs.”
