President's Messages

Fall '17 Welcome Message from the President

Dear Kent State Students:

One of my favorite things as President is to welcome and meet all of our students each fall. That is especially true when I see the newest of our Kent State family moving into the residence halls, exploring campus and the city of Kent, and getting ready for classes. Whether you are spending your first days here, or you are returning to your studies, welcome home!
