department’s educational objectives and learn-ing outcomes. By the end of this exercise, we allfelt a sense of unity in purpose and felt con-nected to each other more than ever before.
Our faculty accomplishments gave us more rea-sons to celebrate. Our research funding contin-ues to increase, requiring us to expand our facil-ities. As you will note in an associated article inthis newsletter, we are looking for ways toexpand our off-campus Civil InfrastructureSystems Laboratory (CISL).
From a Fulbright Scholarship to KSPEOutstanding Young Engineer of the Year, ourfaculty members have enjoyed a range ofregional and national/international recogni-tions. We are very proud that our own BobThorn (BSCE ‘50) was named an HonoraryMember of ASCE and was also appointed asASCE’s Zone III vice president.
Our undergraduate enrollment grew by another10%, and our graduate enrollment (includingboth on-campus and distance education stu-dents) is at an all-time high. Our professionalacademy has enjoyed a growth in corporate andindividual membership. I am most fortunate tohave met several of our academy members dur-ing the various celebration events. We are trulythankful for the loyal support of our alumni.Our faculty, staff, and students continue to takepride and joy in sharing their successes with you.
Best wishes.

2003 has been a year of celebrations. As you willnote from the cover story, our constituents (stu-dents, faculty, staff, alumni, and advisory coun-cil) had a lot of fun participating in the ASCERegional Conference. This was a conferencewhere students took the driver’s seat and the restof us followed to learn leadership lessons fromthem. Ms. Patricia Galloway, ASCE president,graced the occasion with her presence. Our fallbanquet in December was the second event ofcelebrations last year with two hours of non-stop award presentations and recognitions.
Also in 2003 our faculty undertook a criticalreview of our departmental mission and objec-tives. With the help of the CE advisory counciland student leaders, our faculty revisited the

Steven Starrett, assoc. prof., has spent the pastyear performing safety inspections of earthendams in Kansas. He reviews “as built” plans,conducts extensive site visits, reviews hydrologicand hydraulic details, and writes reports statingrecommended operational and maintenanceissues. Most dams in Kansas are “watersheddams,” or detention facilities funded by stateand federal agencies (mostly the U.S.Department of Agriculture’s Natural ResourcesConservation Service) and owned by watersheddistricts. Many of these silent protectors of ourcommunities are now 40 to 50 years old. Someshow signs of aging and need repairs orupgrades to handle larger flows caused by

CE participated in the 2003 Engineering andScience Summer Institute (ESSI) by offering aWater Quality Workshop to selected highschool students and their science teachers fromKansas. The workshop included an interactivediscussion on water quality, a hands-on labora-tory exercise focusing on coagulation-floccula-tion processes in water treatment, and a sitevisit to the Manhattan water and wastewatertreatment facilities. The workshop was organ-ized by CE graduate students Larry Close(BSCE ’02), and Monica Palomo (MSCE ’03),Alok Bhandari, assoc. prof., and Tom Roberts,asst. dean of engineering, and was sponsored inpart by a grant from the U.S.E.P.A.’s Youth andEnvironment Program.

The discovery of environmentally significantamounts of pharmaceutical agents in thenation’s surface waters and groundwater hasbeen receiving a lot of attention from the scien-tific and mainstream press. Pharmaceuticaldrugs are introduced into municipal wastewaterthrough direct disposal of medicines or fromhuman excreta, which contain large quantitiesof non-metabolized and partially metabolizedmedicines.
Alok Bhandari, assoc. prof., and graduate stu-dents Larry Close (BSCE ’02) and ZacharyCook (Plains) are conducting research at severalKansas wastewater treatment plants to evaluatethe occurrence and treatability of three widelyprescribed antibiotics—ciprofloxacin, sul-famethoxazole, and azithromycin. If releasedinto the environment, these compounds havethe potential to perturb microbial ecology,increase the proliferation of antibiotic-resistantpathogens, and pose threat to human health.Utilizing state-of-the-art analytical proceduresand instrumentation to separate these chemicalsfrom the background material in wastewatersamples, Bhandari and coworkers have beenable to detect several antibiotics at low parts-per-billion levels. Their work is funded by theKansas Water Resources Institute and Region 7of the U.S.E.P.A., and is being performed incollaboration with researchers at KSU’s Collegeof Veterinary Medicine.

Fundraising is underway for a new 1800-sq-foot addition to the KSU Civil InfrastructureSystems Laboratory (CISL), located in theManhattan industrial park. The proposedaddition will be attached to the existing struc-ture at the southwest corner and will serve asthe nucleus for full-scale structural engineeringresearch at K-State. The proposed CISL exten-sion will also serve as the primary research areafor an envisioned Center for Strand BondEvaluation and Research. This center wouldserve as a national laboratory for evaluating theeffect of new concrete admixtures on prestress-ing steel bond.
During the past five years, there has been a dra-matic increase in both the level of funding andthe number of funding sources pertaining tofull-scale experimental research, and K-State isnow viewed as the preferred venue for a researchlaboratory by many prestressed concrete produc-ers. The proposed CISL addition will have a650-sq-foot concrete reaction base, plus twoorthogonal reaction walls at the southeast cornerto allow for both vertical and horizontal loadingof structures. Total cost of the building and sitework has been estimated at $300,000, with anadditional $70,000 needed for equipment andstart-up expenses.

Mustaque Hossain, prof. in the pavement mate-rials area, completed a five-month(August–December 2003) sabbatical visit to theUniversity Putra Malaysia (UPM) as a U.S.Fulbright Visiting Scholar. Hossain was award-ed the Fulbright Fellowship to help developguidelines to maintain Malaysia’s continuallygrowing highway infrastructure.
As a Fulbright scholar, Hossain co-taught atUPM an undergraduate course on pavementanalysis and design and a graduate course onpavement materials. Hossain also participatedin a curriculum workshop on highway trans-portation and engineering, attended severalseminars and workshops, and submittedresearch proposals to funding agencies inMalaysia. During his sabbatical, Hossain alsooffered seminars to engineers from the depart-ment of public works, and participants fromvarious universities and industries. He also visit-ed the Asian Institute of Technology inThailand.
