I enjoy the atmosphere of the campus. The buildings are a bit old but beautiful and it gives to the historical aspect of the campus. We also have many trees and shady areas around campus so a quiet, comfortable spot is never hard to find. I enjoy taking walks through campus and admiring the architect and the beauty of the natural landscaping and nature. The campus is inviting and appealing to the eye which drew me in the first time I visited.

Kensey

If I had to choose the best thing about K-State, it would be the "family" aspect. From the support system that K-State provides, to the fact that our stadium is named "Bill Snyder Family Stadium," K-State is truly a unique community that bonds students, faculty, and alumni together in a way that doesn't happen at just any university. Whether it is a door always being held open, or the annual K-State Proud campaign that allows students to help fellow students in financial need, the family environment is always present on this campus.

Carrie

I consider the family-like atmosphere as the best thing because I feel like I am not just another person in the crowd, but actually part of a new family. This campus makes students feel at home and helps students find ways to interact with others and create close relationships they will have forever. This allows students to create close bond they can use to support each other as they get through the tough times at school.

Kansas State University is a family. Everyone is looking out for one another and if something happens to one individual we all rally around them. I believe that family is very important and everyone needs a family to succeed.

Kaitlyn

I believe that each person associated with this campus has an unbelievable school spirit. Being an athlete there are many available services to help us succeed in our busy world. I have never had a problem with professors who would not be available to help me when I am confused. The campus has many opportunities to be involved such as clubs, greek organizations, sporting activities, etc.

Sara

K-State fosters an amazing sense of community. As a freshman, I was a bit intimidated to be on such a large campus, but after a few weeks, I had a busy schedule full of fun activities that allowed me to meet a vast array of people. No matter where I went--the cafeteria, the library, the lecture hall, the gym--I was bound to run into someone I knew and very likely make friends with a stranger. The warm, hospitable environment of Midwestern charms envelops K-State and creates a place that quickly feels like home.

Kirstin

It is a university that is open to everything. There is a place for everyone! There are constantly activities going on for various people. I like to think that this campus is welcoming and inviting! Smiles everywhere, always willing to help the few people that may get turned around. A lot of times you may see a friend and it is always nice to see people catching up or catching up with someone yourself.

Cody

The Atmosphere, I have never visited another University that has an atmosphere like K-State. Everyone is always smiling, and going out of their way to say hi and help others. It is what drew me to this University and the main reason I am staying. I've been on a lot of campuses and have never felt more at home then when I walk around the Kansas State University campus.

Blair

K-State's official color is Royal Purple. Purple is not as easy color to wear. When I first came to K-State I told myself I'd wear black, grey, white with maybe a hint of purple but now 3 and half short years later purple is the primary color in my wardrobe. This school pride is contagious at K-State. It's easy to shoot someone a smile when walking across campus when you know they share the same pride as you in your school.

Carter

I like the "friendly" atmosphere. You will find that most colleges that play us in sporting events have said that our fans are some of the nicest around. I also like all the things that you can do around Manhattan and the surrounding area. You can get away from all the stress when you go to Tuttle Creek, Pillsbury Crossing and other rural areas. You can be with others in Aggieville and out at the Town Center Mall when you want company. You can take dates to the zoo or a movie and even the Insect Zoo on campus.

Melanie

My school's school spirit is by far the most beneficial aspect of our university. The sense of community and commitment created by our school spirit makes this university a better place. On game day, you will see purple people everywhere, and not only students, but professors and local residents as well. When you go out of town and meet someone who graduated from K-State, there is an immediate connection and sense of affinity for the other person. The school is not cliquish, though, and does not criticize those who think otherwise, but merely accept them as well.

Shannon

Great school spirt, easy to fit in down to earth people
