Kathalina (Kat) Thorpe plays many roles, including mom, graduate student and assistant, technical designer, researcher, and philanthropist. However, one persona created the happiest of moments – Worm Girl! It was in 2020 at the Georgia Undergraduate Research Conference – when someone pointed to her and said, “You are the Worm Girl!” And Thorpe has worked hard to be recognized for this beloved character, which has spurred a movement. As a graduate student and teaching assistant at Kent State University, she is also the technical designer for Kent State Trumbull Theatre’s upcoming Summe...

Workers from the Portage County non-profit organization Family and Community Services recently arrived at Kent State University’s Kent Campus to collect one of the most prized castoffs from university residence halls: bicycles. The agency’s annual bike collection on the Kent Campus has become one of its most popular giveaways at the County Clothing Center in Ravenna, which is one of many social service programs that Family and Community Services operate in the Kent-Ravenna area. “Oh, my goodness yes, the bicycles disappear very fast,” said Candy Pollard, who manages t...

肯特州立大学重新开放委员会将继续努力，以确保今年秋天安全返校。我们计划在八月份恢复住校生活和面对面上课，并且我们正在开发几种方案，以确保为我们的学生，教职员工能确保安全。为此，我们建立了“肯特安全七原则"，以指导重返校园活动。肯特州立大学的每个人都必须遵守这些操作原则，以帮助创造尽可能最安全的环境。
1.始终戴上口罩
需要面部遮盖物（口罩）。大学正在努力为没有口罩的人提供口罩。穿戴口罩是“肯特安全七原则”的重要组成部分。所有可以穿戴口罩的人都必须这样做。那些患有严重哮喘或呼吸问题，助听器，自闭症，创伤后应激障碍或幽闭恐惧症的人可以无需配戴口罩。此外，切勿将口罩戴在2岁以下，呼吸困难，失去知觉，无行为能力或无法在没有帮助的情况下将其摘下的人身上。如果您是教职人员或工作人员，并且对穿戴口罩有疑惑，请联系EOAA合规办公室。
2.常洗手
大学社区内成员必须严格保持手部卫生。经常用肥皂和水洗手至少20秒钟，尤其是在公共场所或咳嗽或打喷嚏之后。避免用未洗的手触摸眼睛，鼻子和嘴巴。如果没有肥皂和水，请使用至少含60％酒精的洗手液。
3.清洁和消毒
尊敬的肯特州立大学学生，教职员工：
肯特州立大学正在努力工作，以确保我们在秋季学期返回的学生，教职员工的健康和安全。为此，我们想与您分享一些有关学期开始时校园生活的细节。

课程
我们现在知道，许多课程将会远程授课，而面对面课程的数量将取决于俄亥俄州制定的准则。在确定课面对面授课的课程时，我们会优先考虑校园教室和学习空间。为此，我们最多希望40％的课程是面对面授课，而至少60％是远程在线授课。
由于教室容量的减少，即便是对于住校的学生来说，远程学习也可能会成为您日程安排的重要组成部分。根据您的专业，班级选择，班级状况和校园情况，将面对面授课与远程授课的数量会有所不同。但是，无论采用哪种教学方法，您的课程都是相关的，具有挑战性的和有吸引力的。我们正在升级技术，以支持我们的教职工在与学生互动时获得真实的课堂体验。同时，每个教室中的一些新技术将会帮助我们的学生更好的参加面对面的课堂。此外，将进行远程教学的许多教职员工正在学习如何使用远程教学系统，以便他们可以为您准备最优质的远程授课体验。
