New sculpture at airport highlights WSU’s applied learning and community engagement initiatives

Wichita State now has an even bigger presence at the Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport with the installation of a new, nearly nine-foot WSU sculpture that Wichitans and visitors to the city see first thing when entering the airport.

The sculpture — designed and built by GoCreate, a Koch Collaborative, with the help of students — highlights WSU’s commitment to providing Shockers with applied learning experiences that prepare them for the workforce. It also further entrenches Wichita State’s place in the community as the university helps uplifts Wichita as a whole.
