Campus
Kansas State University has a student population of between 20 and 25 thousand students with about 5% of them international. The beautiful buildings on campus are made primarily from the local limestone, and exhibit a wonderful architectural harmony, which adds beauty to the campus. A new library and a new Art Museum were built in 1996 and 1997. The campus supplies several recreation facilities for fitness as well as entertainment.
