Kent State University at Ashtabula was set up to take patients in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic last spring when authorities and experts were unsure of how the spread would impact area hospitals. The space wasn’t needed then, but the campus helped in other ways by donating personal protective equipment to frontline health care professionals.

Spring Semester began on Jan. 19 with classes being offered in-person and remotely as planned. Most offices and services are open and operating remotely. 

The Library, Bookstore and all academic buildings are open.  The Seasoned Cafe is open Monday-Thursday from 8 a.m. - 3 p.m.

When on campus, all Kent State Ashtabula community members and visitors are required to adhere to the Flashes Safe Eight principles to ensure the safety of our community. Face coverings are required.
