The President's Residence
Located just east of Anderson Hall on the Kansas State University campus is the president's residence, a three-story English country-style house built of native limestone in 1923. Designed by Cecil Baker, former head of K-State's department of architecture, the home was first occupied by William Jardine, the university's seventh president.
In addition to serving as the first family's residence, the house has hosted several high-profile university guests and countless celebratory and social events.
