K-State Radio Centennial: A Century of Sound and Service

Celebrating 100 years of broadcasting at Kansas State University.

Bring the college to the people and the people to the college.

That was the goal of KSAC when it launched its first broadcast on December 1, 1924, and became the first educational broadcasting station in Kansas and a pioneer radio voice in the United States.

Celebration at the Towers

You're invited to join us at the Radio Towers, which have proudly stood on campus for 100 years, for a celebration of K-State's rich history in broadcasting.

 

Important voices from K-State and the broadcast industry bring you these radio vignettes that cover a century of sound and service at the university.
