Kansas State creates search committee to help hire new athletic director

Kansas State president Richard Myers will lean on the judgment of an eight-person search committee as he contemplates who to hire as the Wildcats’ new athletic director.

The committee, chaired by K-State Alumni Associate President Amy Button Renz, will immediately begin work on a national search and offer its recommendation to Myers this spring.

“The position of director of athletics at K-State has evolved into one of the top jobs in the country,” Myers said in a statement. “We are members of a strong conference and have incredible support from our passionate alumni base, students and other fans across the state and around the world.
