Welcome!
         from the Parents and Family Program

    We are thrilled to welcome parents, families and guests to the Kansas
    State University Orientation!

    As a member of the K-State family we invite you to become a member of
    the K-State Parents & Family Program. This is a completely free resource
    designed to keep families informed, celebrate student achievements and
    to help you make family memories at K-State. Our program embraces
    an extensive definition of family. This may include families of origin and
    families of choice. If you are a friend, spouse, neighbor, extended family
    member, guardian, or sibling, we welcome everyone. We seek to create
    an inclusive environment for all students and their family members.

    To become a member, families can sign-up for the Parents & Family
    Newsletter. In addition to a bi-monthly newsletter, the PFP has a free
    hotline that parents and families can call with questions. The number is
    (785) 532-2222 and open for any questions you or your family encounter
    between now and college graduation!

    Mark your calendars! The Parents and Family Program will be hosting an
    exciting lineup of events throughout the year. Be sure to save the date
    for the 93nd Annual Family Day celebration held on Saturday, September
    18, 2021. We invite families to experience K-State, eat great food, and
    make memories with your student. Families can hang out at the pre-
    game Tailgate Party (registration opens late summer) or celebrate your
    student at the breakfast Pinning Ceremony. This ceremony honors
    students who are the first in their family to attend K-State and honors
    students who are following a long family legacy of Wildcats.

    Every year our program is looking for leaders to serve on the Parents &
    Family Advisory Board. This group provides a voice for K-State families
    for issues pertinent to student life. For more information about this
    opportunity, visit www.k-state.edu/parentsandfamily. Additionally, you
    can also follow PFP on Facebook and Twitter to stay informed and
    engaged with the K-State community.

    With purple pride,

‘Wabash Cannonball’
Get on your feet, clap, bend and twist to this rousing anthem. After a fire destroyed
the home of the music department in 1968, the band performed the only music that
was left: “The Wabash Cannonball.” Now, doing “The Wabash” is a rite of passage for
all K-Staters. It was recently named the No. 1 pregame tradition in the Big 12 by ESPN.
