Kent State University's eight-campus system, one of the largest regional systems in the country, serves both the development of a true living/learning approach at the Kent Campus and the regional needs on seven other campuses throughout Northeast Ohio. The Kent Campus provides the resources and facilities of a large, diverse university, while the Regional Campuses - Ashtabula, East Liverpool, Geauga, Salem, Stark, Trumbull and Tuscarawas - offer the friendly, casual atmosphere of small liberal arts colleges.

In 2010, Kent State University will celebrate 100 years of changing lives and serving as a vital resource for Ohio and beyond. Learn more about the Centennial Celebration of one of the largest Ohio universities. Our strategic plan will guide as in reaching this milestone.

Kent State University has a rich history. The tragic events of May 4, 1970, had a profound impact on the university, the nation and the world. The university community welcomes visitors to the May 4 Site and Memorial on the Kent Campus to inquire, learn and reflect. Visitors are also welcome to attend the annual Symposium on Democracy.

Today, Kent State has become an engine for economic, cultural and workforce development in the region and beyond as one of the premiere Ohio colleges. Kent State is ranked among the nation's 77 public research universities demonstrating high-research activity by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.

Join the more than 184,000 alumni worldwide, who can proudly sing along with the fight song or alma mater from one of the most historic Ohio colleges - Kent State University.
