Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

When speaking of the student body at K-State, one must always remember that the emphasis belongs on “body.” K-State boasts a top-of-the-line, state-of-the-art recreation center, and walking through the quad, it’s obvious a lot of students have been putting it to good use. If the tan, taut, all-American specimen is what gets your motor running, you’ll find no shortage of fuel in Manhattan. Straight males and lesbians have particular reason to rejoice. Though a good many guys here give no more thought to their personal appearance than to who’s ripe for the ax on America’s Next Top Model, girls generally groom themselves.

If for some reason you feel obliged to look beyond the purely physical and into the personality department, the pickings become somewhat less appetizing. Although a substantial percentage of the student population is composed of thoughtful, engaging, and truly unique individuals, there is a comparably substantial percentage of out-and-out tools—and not the sharpest the shed has to offer, either. You’ll also find, thanks to the virulent strain of religious conservatism on campus, that many of the models on display are, in truth, on display: you can look, but you can’t touch.

Lots of variety for both sexes, I believe there is almost a 1:1 ratio of female:men.

Since it is such a large school, there are a wide variety of people here: guys and girls. But their attitude's are all very similar. People here like to party and very few want to settle down and get focused.

Facts

Social Scene

One of the major perks of a school as large as K-State is that there’s a niche for every species of student. True, the fratmosphere is dense, but it’s by no means suffocating. If one is seeking alternatives to the Greek scene, there are house parties, bars, late-night movies, and, for those unimpeded by a sense of self-consciousness, karaoke night at the local bowling alley. If anything, the student body is too social for its surroundings—people often feel compelled to drive to nearby cities like Topeka, Lawrence, or Kansas City to get their Friday-night fix.

Hookups or Relationships?

Both are available, though given the staggeringly high number of conservative Christians on campus, the latter are a little easier to come by. Guys unwilling to tolerate one-night stands should bring along some quality reading material—last year the KSU Collegian published a story about a girl who enforced a six-month probation period before permitting her boyfriend to kiss her.

Best Places to Meet Guys/Girls

All things considered, campus organizations are probably your safest bet. Students for Bharatiya heritage and arts tend to like other students for Bharatiya heritage and arts; KRMUGers tend to like people they don’t have to deconstruct their acronym for. And, as the presence of a happily married couple in practically every university department attests, mutual affection sparked by common interest has a way of turning into something more.

Dress Code

The dress code is as tame as the animal science department’s newborn calves—the jean-and-T-shirt combo is king. The prominence of cowboy hats, while perhaps not stylistically kosher, is more than redeemed by the scarcity of the popped collar.
