SUMMARY:"The Story of How K-State Integrated the Big 12 Conference" by Ken Neaderhiser
DESCRIPTION:In the fall of 1949\, K-State football players Harold Robinson and Hoyt Givens broke the Big 7 (now Big 12) Conference’s color barrier\, competing at and against segregated schools in direct defiance of conference norms. Their courage marked one of the earliest integrations in collegiate athletics. \nLed by the university president Milton Eisenhower\, who championed the integration of all campus facilities. While it took three years and ten athletes across five sports before another school followed\, Kansas State had already set a powerful precedent. \nToday\, this moment stands as one of the greatest accomplishments in school history. A testament to bold leadership and coming together for a shared purpose in pursuit of equality.  \nJoin us to hear firsthand account from Ken about this pivotal milestone both in collegiate athletics and civil rights history. \n\n\n$3 admission\, free to members and open to the public \n\n\nCoffee and pastries provided \n\n\nValidated parking \n\n\nWheelchair accessible

SUMMARY:Kauffman Center Presents
DESCRIPTION:Herbie Hancock \n\n\n\n\n\nNow in the seventh decade of his professional life\, Herbie Hancock remains where he has always been: at the forefront of world culture\, technology\, business and music. Herbie Hancock has been an integral part of every popular music movement since the 1960s. As a member of the Miles Davis Quintet that pioneered a groundbreaking sound in jazz\, he also developed new approaches on his own recordings\, followed by his work in the 70s — with record-breaking albums such as “Headhunters” — that combined electric jazz with funk and rock in an innovative style that continues to influence contemporary music.
