Documentaries

The college has produced a number of documentary video projects with an emphasis on diversity and inclusion.

For example, A Walk in My Shoes is a collaborative documentary series that has covered various topics regarding diverse populations in education. Started by Dr. Kay Ann Taylor in 2012, the first documentary, titled “International Students,” provided a unique glimpse into the lives of K-State international students from five different countries: Angola, China, India, Saudi Arabia, and South Korea.

Since then, a number of other documentaries have been produced by the college, including, “A Long Road: 150 Years of Collective Experience from Five African-American K-State Alumni” and “Humanity Looks Good on Everyone.”
