==Ike and Letty Academic Success Center==
The Ike and Letty Evans Academic Success Center, or ASC, catalyzes experiences in support of student success with novel programs designed to meet the needs of engineering students as they transition from initial enrollment to graduation. It partners with students to address their individual needs and unique goals, utilizing a student-centered approach with an emphasis on academic achievement. This approach focuses on innovative learning-centered environments, where students engage in academic and co-curricular activities.

== Programs ==
ASC staff provide academic advising for first-year and returning engineering students to strengthen and improve upon their progress with one-stop access to peer-to-peer tutoring, alumni mentoring, first-year instruction and diversity support programs.

With group study stations, computer workstations, conference rooms, team-building areas and multimedia flex rooms, the associated facilities have been developed to continually reinforce the discipline of working in a team setting. This modality helps ensure students are fully prepared upon graduation to join the rapidly changing workforce. The ASC also offers workshops on study skills, time management, engineering careers and internships. The center’s Collaborative Learning Laboratory serves as home to the innovative Scholars Assisting Scholars program where upper-level students are hired to tutor their peers, in turn developing the tutors' own teaching and leadership skills.<ref>https://engg.ksu.edu/academic-success-center/</ref>
