History
The Alumni Center opened in October 2002, along Anderson Avenue just south of historic Memorial Stadium. Construction funding came entirely from more than 1,500 private donations, and 75 percent of the building is public space.
The center is constructed of native Kansas limestone, and K-State artifacts are on display in the Memorabilia Room and throughout the building. The original 1859 arch from Bluemont College, K-State's forerunner, is incorporated into the Frasier Fireplace in the Tointon Great Room. The Hagans Library houses a collection of Royal Purple yearbooks and K-Stater magazines, along with videos used for student recruitment and athletics highlights.
