Positive Impact

Every year, fall semester at Kent State Geauga starts just days before the Great Geauga County Fair gets underway. The sweltering week in mid-August is a flurry of activity for students, faculty, staff, and administrators who bring their best efforts to both. They are dually committed to world-class higher education and the rich agricultural heritage of this region.

Honor is not only an attitude; it’s an action. As it is given and received, it profoundly improves the lives of all involved.

At the close of every academic year, Kent State University at Geauga honors a recent alum with the Early Career Achievement Award. This distinction honors a strong leader who shows continued potential in their chosen field, with commitment to the community and university.
