Advisory Board

Our advisory board is comprised of a range of individuals from multiple colleges and departments across K-State. Their responsibilities include program services guidance during grant renewal and participation in annual program evaluations and goal setting. Board members also support Scholars’ achievements by attending the end of summer research presentations and the program’s annual recognition reception in April as their schedules permit.
