In recognition of Labor Day, the K-State Department of Agricultural Economics will be closed Monday, Sept. 7.

Weโ€™re proud to educate, serve and work alongside those who help feed, fuel and support our communities every day.

Wishing our students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends a safe and relaxing Labor Day weekend! ๐Ÿ’œ
