Services and Events

Military Affiliated Resource Center (M.A.R.C.)

The M.A.R.C. began in 2011 to provide military affiliated students a space to connect for resources and support throughout their K-State journey. In 2023, K-State began to implement the strategies developed for a Center of Excellence for Veteran Student Success to form a “suite of services” for our Veteran and Military Affiliated population. In addition to our physical location in Room 222 of the Student Union, we offer events and programming for our community of learners.

Amenities in the M.A.R.C. include

  • Knowledgeable staff and student work studies to answer questions and direct to resources.
  • Computers with free printing – 15 page limit daily.
  • Fireplace lounge & study space.
  • Kitchenette with microwave, toaster, refrigerator.
  • Coffee and snacks.
  • Events and networking opportunities. Register for upcoming events or view opportunities in OrgCentral
