MANHATTAN — The Kent and Susan Winter family has been selected as the Kansas State University's 2023 Family of the Year by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.k-state.edu/chimes/">Chimes Junior Honorary</a>.

The family was recognized at the K-State football game on Saturday, Sept. 8, at Bill Snyder Family Stadium as part of the university's 95th annual&nbsp;<a href="https://www.k-state.edu/parentsandfamily/familyweekend/">Family Weekend</a>&nbsp;celebration.

"It's an honor to call Kent and Susan, and the entire Winter family, alumni of K-State," said Andrew Bergmeier, junior in elementary education and Chimes director of events. "We are grateful to be able to call them Wildcats and are thankful for all the time they have dedicated to our university. 

Their commitment to the K-State family hasn't gone unnoticed."According to the family's application, Kent Winter, of&nbsp;Andale, began his K-State story in 1973. While on campus, he was a member of Alpha Gamma Rho, even serving as chapter president for a year, and met some of his lifelong friends whom he remains connected to now. 

He graduated from K-State in 1977 with a bachelor's degree in agronomy, and in 1979 he earned a master's degree in soil fertility.After graduation, he worked as an agronomist for several years until returning to the family farm in rural Sedgwick County when he married Susan in the spring of 1984. The Winters built their legacy there through raising crops and eight children as well as contributing to their community through a variety of organizations.Seven of the Winters' children have attended K-State, and their eighth is a current K-State student: Mary Winter Subramanian, '06; Anne Winter Tibbets, '09; Alan Winter, '11; Jill Winter Baalmann, '11; Grace Winter Crouch, '15; Phillip Winter, '18; Kurt Winter, '20; and Claire Winter, senior in biological systems engineering.

Kent serves as the Winter family representative for an annual scholarship honoring his brother, Stan, who died in 1992. The Stanley L. Winter Alpha Tau Omega Leadership Scholarship assists students who exhibit leadership and dedication to the K-State Student Union."In the early years of the scholarship, Kent would bring along two or three of his grade school age children to the banquet," said the family nominator. 

"Kent and the broader Winter family's commitment to this scholarship is unwavering, and a testament to their belief that one should give back to causes and organizations which have shaped them into the people they are today."

In 2023, the Kent and Susan Winter family have reached several K-State milestones: 50 years since Kent first attended the university, 30 years of continuous funding for the Stanley L. Winter Alpha Tau Omega Leadership Scholarship and 20 consecutive years as a parent of a current K-State student.According to their nominators, the Winters are hard-working individuals who have bettered themselves, and in turn their broader community, through their education and experience at K-State.

Fort Riley held a 9/11 commemoration ceremony Monday to honor and remember those who fell on September 11, 2001, and those members of the military who gave the ultimate sacrifice in the years since that day, including 214 Soldiers from the 1st&nbsp;Infantry Division and Fort Riley.

Col. Michael Foote, Fort Riley Garrison Commander, spoke during the ceremony.

“We gather here today like thousands of others at ceremonies across our great nation and the world to remember the tragedy and murder that occurred 22 years ago. September 11, designated “Patriot Day” by Congress, provides cause to each of us to contemplate two tasks: The first, is to honor the nearly 3,000 innocent lives taken from us and to pay tribute to all the patriots who have sacrificed their lives in the defense of freedom since that fateful morning. The second, is to rededicate ourselves to the vigilance required to prevent our enemies from striking our homeland ever again.”

Col. Foote also honored the first responders who fell on September 11, saying, “On that fateful day in 2001, the first brave Americans to rise up in response to the terrorist attacks were those wearing the uniforms of police officers, fire fighters, and emergency medical technicians. We are joined today by members of our Fort Riley Emergency Services and Fort Riley Military Police. They represent those heroes who rushed into the twin towers that fateful day."

Farm legislation also affects nutrition programs, say K-State officials

Farm and food policy go hand in hand, so current discussions leading to the next U.S. Farm Bill is likely to affect the availability of food, said Kansas State University agricultural policy specialist Jenny Ifft.

“Food stamps began during the Great Depression based on shared policy objectives of increasing farm income and decreasing hunger in both rural and urban areas,” Ifft said. “Now that program is called SNAP.”

Ten percent of Kansas households experience food insecurity, K-State SNAP-Education coordinator Lisa Ross said.

“The effects of food insecurity can cause health complications, especially in growth and development of children,” Ross said. “SNAP-Ed works to give everyone nutrition education and make sure they get the most out of food assistance programs.”

Nutrition programs are predicted to make up 84% of farm bill spending because of the large role food assistance programs play in the broader social safety net, Ifft adds. SNAP-Ed works to help people eligible for assistance programs lead healthier lives within a limited budget.

“We also initiate and support policy system environmental work designed to promote healthy behavior and decisions in Kansas communities,” Ross said.

SNAP has more than 50 million participants nationwide, most of whom are children or elderly and disabled. Ifft explains that the majority of policy debates are about the 10% of SNAP participants in the “able-bodied without dependents” category.

“The budget for both food programs and farms increased in the last five years, but nutrition increased more,” Ifft said. “That is a topic of debate as well as increasing the budget for SNAP.”

According to Ifft, the SNAP budget was increased administratively by the USDA in the last five years, bringing to question who gets to make those changes -- and ultimately adding to the farm bill debate.

With more than 94,000 households receiving SNAP benefits, SNAP-Ed works to improve health outcomes in SNAP participants and communities.

“It is really important that we work together on this farm bill because without SNAP there is no SNAP-education,” Ross said.

MANHATTAN — Kansas State University has leaned into its land-grant heritage and mission with the launch of its Next-Gen K-State strategic plan. Built from input from more than 10,000 students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors and other university stakeholders — including the 2,457 Kansans who participated in last academic year's&nbsp;<a href="https://www.k-state.edu/president/initiatives/regional-community-visits/" target="_blank">regional community visits</a>&nbsp;across the state — the plan outlines how the university will transform to serve new kinds of learners, solve grand global challenges, and contribute to the economic prosperity of the state.

"Being a next-generation land-grant university requires us to renew our commitment to the land-grant mission, which is all about access and opportunity," said Richard Linton, K-State president. "But access and opportunity today means something different than it did in 1863 — we must evolve to meet the needs of today's learners who are seeking different kinds of training and education, and we must embrace our responsibility to serve the state, nation and world through research and engagement in new and exciting ways.

"The plan, which outlines key priorities for the institution, four distinct opportunity areas for interdisciplinary focus, and 17 relevant measures of success, will guide the university through the year 2030. Specific goals around student enrollment and retention, academic innovation and applied learning experiences, research growth and impact, and engagement and economic impact will define the future of the university. Linton added, "As the nation's first operational land-grant university, we view it as our responsibility to redefine what that means in modern-day contexts — and by delivering unmistakable value to all who wish to learn, grow and prosper, we will set the standard for what a highly engaged, people-centered, and learner-focused university can and should be."The plan can be viewed in full at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.k-state.edu/strategic-planning/" target="_blank">k-state.edu/strategic-planning</a>.&nbsp;Redefining student populations

K-State is consistently recognized by The Princeton Review for a variety of student experience and support rankings, including boasting some of the nation's happiest students. The Next-Gen K-State strategic plan recognizes that to continue to meet the needs of all students, K-State must expand its offerings.&nbsp; "Critical to the Next-Gen plan is this idea of strongly connecting our program offerings with industry and workforce needs," Linton said. "Not all who are seeking education today are looking for a traditional degree — we need to be ready with a full suite of program options that meet students where they are. "By expanding the makeup of K-State's student body to include more certificate-seeking students, microcredential-seeking students and more, the university has outlined a pathway to grow to 30,000 learners by 2030."That doesn't mean 30,000 students on the Manhattan campus or across our physical campuses, nor is it 30,000 degree-seeking students — it's 30,000 citizens of the world accessing the opportunity to learn how they want, when they want, for whatever reason they need," Linton added.&nbsp;

CalfDex now available for IPhone, Android devices

K-State Research and Extension news service

Kansas State University agricultural economics and veterinary medicine staff are taking their knowledge on animal record-keeping to mobile phones with an app that is now available in app stores for IPhone and Android devices.

K-State livestock economist Ted Schroeder said the app, called CalfDex, is free to download. It was developed by agricultural economist master’s graduate Jake Hefley (who now works at the University of Missouri), master’s candidate Audrey Marchek, K-State veterinarian Bob Larson and Schroeder.

The project was funded by a grant from the USDA Federal-State Marketing Improvement Program.

“Our team is eager to provide users with a convenient and easy-to-use modern animal data management tool to keep pace in an ever-changing industry,” Schroeder said. “Considering the growing importance of information exchange in the beef supply chain, there is value in an application that has the ability to store and upload data at the whole-herd and individual animal levels, while also facilitating easy downstream data sharing.”

The app is designed for use in the field even where cell phone service is not available. Schroeder said CalfDex enables producers to maintain efficient and accurate calving, weaning and treatment records – mitigating the risk of clutter, data loss and misplacement that is commonly seen with paper records. The data is also stored across calving seasons for easy access.

Schroeder said the app allows users to protect information with a unique email address and password, established by the user.

“Because it has the capability to track multiple herds and individual animal information, CalfDex is tailored to meet the needs of all sizes of calving operations, from large purebred enterprises to a 4-H or FFA student beginning their first beef breeding project,” Schroeder said.

More information on the app, including a description of its functions,&nbsp;<a href="https://agmanager.info/livestock-meat/cross-subject-areas/introduction-and-emerging-features-calfdex-new-calving">is available online</a>, as well as on&nbsp;<a href="https://agmanager.info/">AgManager,</a>&nbsp;a website maintained by K-State’s Department of Agricultural Economics.
