A Salina student is among  31 student leaders in Kansas State University’s Carl R. Ice College of Engineering who have been selected to represent the college through the Engineering Ambassadors organization.

According to KSU, Brock Dolton is among the ambassadors.

Engineering Ambassadors are current engineering students who are chosen to promote the engineering profession and act as hosts for the college. Each ambassador assists with recruitment initiatives that occur both on and off campus.

Students with strong academic and leadership records are eligible for membership and are selected after an application and interview process.

Leanne Reineman, assistant director of recruitment, and Craig Wanklyn, assistant dean for recruitment, serve as advisors to the ambassadors.
