Dear Colleagues,
1xbet sports betting , scholarly and creative activities, and discovery, or RSCAD, is one of the seven major themes in the K-State 2025 strategic plan. As called for in the very first activity in our plan, it is important that we identify our strategic areas of RSCAD strengths. During this past spring, I asked the colleges to identify their areas of RSCAD strengths to complement the work done previously by the 1xbet sports betting Schulz,Related goal. I am pleased to share the 1xbet sports bett of that work today.
In 2012, the 1xbet sports betting Themes Committee identified 12 areas of 1xbet sports betting strengths for the university based on two criteria: the likelihood of attracting support from funding agencies and a strong base of success already established at K-State. The committee also recommended that the process be extended to include RSCAD areas where criteria other than external funding could be used as a basis for determining strengths. President Schulz determined that the next step should be to identify college RSCAD areas of strength.
After discussions with the deans and associate deans for 1xbet sports betting , we developed a reporting approach to promote consistency but also maintain flexibility for colleges to determine their strengths, recognizing that one size does not fit all. A reporting format was designed to answer two simple questions: What are a college's areas of RSCAD strengths and why? Guidance and a set of slides explaining the background and purpose of the reporting effort were provided to the deans in the spring and are included in the compiled report. That guidance includes 20 criteria to be considered as a basis for identifying a RSCAD strength and explaining why a particular area is a strength.
The compiled report includes the following sections:
- Summary Overview: The overview provides background and links to other related reports, such as the 1xbet sports betting Infrastructure Task Force and 1xbet sports betting Themes Committee reports.
- Summary Report of 1xbet sports betting by
- Summary Report of 1xbet sports betting by Criteria and
- 1xbet sports bet: Reports submitted by all colleges are included, except the College of Engineering, which will submit its report in September. At that time the reports of 1xbet sports betting by college and by criteria will be updated.

- Slide presentation: Identifying and Reporting 1xbet sports betting , Scholarly and Creative Activities, and Discovery, or RSCAD, College Strengths
The goal of this college reporting effort was to provide "ready lists" of 1xbet sports betting areas of strength that could be shared with both internal and external audiences. This report and the individual college lists can be used in a number of ways, including:
- highlighting the value and potential of our 1xbet sports betting work to external stakeholders, such as the Kansas Board of Regents, legislators, funding agencies, and potential corporate/industry partners,
- promoting interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, and multi-institutional teaming and collaboration,
- promoting outreach to attract and recruit outstanding graduate students, faculty, and staff in our 1xbet sports betting areas, and
- assisting our new vice president for 1xbet sports betting , Karen Burg, by providing her with a portfolio of RSCAD strength areas.
I want to thank the deans, associate deans for 1xbet sports betting and the many others in the colleges who worked together to develop the college lists. I also want to thank Lynn Carlin in the Office of the Provost; Jan Middendorf, Sandra Brase, and Joel Wallace in the Office of Educational Innovation and Evaluation; and Janelle Corkill, in the Division of Communication and Marketing; for their work compiling and publishing the online report. For further information or questions about this report, please contact Lynn Carlin at lcarlin@ksu.edu.
As we work together to build our reputation as a public 1xbet sports betting university integrating education, 1xbet sports betting and engagement as part of our land grand mission, our RSCAD strengths will continue to grow and evolve. This promises to be an exciting year on our journey to becoming a Top 50 public 1xbet sports betting university by 2025. I look forward to working with Vice President Burg, our deans and associate deans for 1xbet sports betting , and our outstanding faculty and staff as we continue to move forward.
Thanks for all you do.
