When disaster strikes: Students at ÂÌñÉç at Trumbull received real world disaster training through a partnership with a local hospital.
A future ÂÌñÉç president and a past ÂÌñÉçadministrator were serving at universities in Dayton and Texas on May 4, 1970, and had to find ways to manage student protests in reaction to the shootings.
ÂÌñÉç and the City of Cleveland have launched a new research and training initiative aimed at strengthening trust, collaboration and accountability between the Cleveland Division of Police and city residents. The project is supported by a $20,000 grant from Kent State’s Community Engaged Research Institute.
As four astronauts aboard NASA's Orion spacecraft speed toward the moon on the Artemis II mission — the first crewed lunar voyage in more than 50 years — a ÂÌñÉç graduate is among those who helped make the moment possible.
