Eds: APNewsNow.

OLATHE, Kan. (AP) -- A groundbreaking ceremony will be held Thursday for the first building on Kansas State University's new Olathe campus.

The building will eventually house the $28 million National Institute for Animal Health and Food Safety.

Dan Richardson, chief executive officer of the Kansas State Olathe Innovation Campus Inc., says the institute will house educational and lab space for research, education and technology commercialization in animal health and food safety.

Richardson says the building is projected to be completed by late 2010 or early 2011, Richardson said.
