
ANNUAL REPORT 2012-13
I am pleased to report that the
K-State Alumni Association
continued to excel in its overall
mission of “Enhancing our Kansas
State University family through
lifelong involvement” during fiscal
year 2012-2013.
Membership is up over last year by
Dr. Kent Bradley ’88 nearly 1,000 members, making us
more than 41,000 strong. And for
the 17th consecutive year, the Alumni Association
ranks No. 1 in the Big 12 for the percentage of
graduates who are members of the Association.
These record accomplishments could not happen
without a solid plan, dedicated staff, committed
board members, and loyal alumni and friends.
Details on how these and other accomplishments
were achieved can be found in the following pages
of this annual report.
One area that I would like to give special recognition
this year is the database services provided by
the Association’s Information Services staff. From
behind the scenes, this staff quietly maintains

K-STATE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
records for nearly 300,000 alumni and other
constituents affiliated with the Association and the
university. Without the continued development and
maintenance of a finely tuned database it wouldn’t
be possible to keep the K-State family connected
as well as we are today. I
applaud their dedication and
commitment in supporting the
K-State Alumni
Association and the university.

Last but not least, the Alumni
Association staff and board of
directors would like to thank
you for supporting the K-State
Alumni Association and for
keeping the “Family Spirit”
alive at K-State. We value your
continued support and look
forward to the year ahead.
Go Wildcats!

K-STATE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION AGAIN ENJOYS RECORD YEAR
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The K-State family had much to celebrate
in fiscal year 2013 with three Big 12
Conference championships, the Tostitos
Fiesta Bowl, Kansas State University’s
150th anniversary, record enrollment
on campus and 17 consecutive years as
No. 1 in the Big 12 for the percentage of
graduates who are Alumni Association
members.

K-State Alumni Association board of directors
With nearly 118,000 K-State family members and friends participating in more than 1,000 Alumni Association
activities in FY2013, we surpassed last year’s record for alumni and friends participation by nearly 30 percent.
It’s our fourth consecutive year of exceeding prior year records for participation.
Our strategic initiatives to enhance the student experience were equally successful. Alumni and friends
provided funds that enabled the Association to pay more than $245,000 in scholarships to K-State students.
During FY2013, we also celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Alumni Center. The Center, a great source
of pride for all alumni, has exceeded expectations. In its first 10 years, the Alumni Center hosted more than
6,500 scheduled events and more than 500,000 visitors.
David Mayes ’96
It’s a privilege for the Alumni Association
to serve as “your link for life” to the
university. Your continued support
enabled us to achieve many goals last year.

As the “keeper of traditions” for the university, the Association played a key role in supporting the university’s
150th anniversary celebrations. We had many opportunities to showcase our extensive collection of
memorabilia and bring alumni together in reminiscing about their years at K-State.
MARY HOW ICE ’80, ’88
Westlake, Texas
Through the support of generations of K-State family members, the K-State Alumni Association has come a
long way since its humble beginnings in 1874. I would like to thank the Association staff, board of directors and
all of our alumni and friends for their continued support. Without you, none of this would be possible. We
look forward to the next 150 years at K-State.
