WHO WE ARE: Kent Communication Society (KCS) is a student-run undergraduate organization open to all students. KCS is dedicated to helping undergraduates enrolled at Kent State, and beyond graduation. Members of the club have the opportunity to associate with people of similar interests as well as receive information and contacts beneficial for the future.

WHAT DO WE DO: KCS holds social, academic, and career-related events that focus on communication activities. Past activities have included fundraisers that have benefited charitable organizations and the society itself. We also involve ourselves in promotional activities for the society and hold career seminars for students close to graduation.

HOW TO JOIN KCS: Interested students can pay an annual fee of five dollars that will help defray the cost of food and the social activities we coordinate. As a member you will be asked to first of all have fun, get involved with the communication activities, and contribute good ideas and suggestions to the society.

HOW KCS BENEFITS YOU: All members have the chance to establish a solid history of involvement in a university-sanctioned organization. Being an active member will help you build a complete resume and crucial networks that can help in finding internships and possible careers. KCS is a great way to get involved and meet other Communication majors.
