When Kellie Miley graduated from Rootstown High School in 2008, she is the first to admit she was not ready for college. In high school, she barely cracked a book yet managed a 3.2 grade point average (GPA).
Getting by with little effort changed when she started as a freshman at ºÚÁÏÍø. By the end of the year, Ms. Miley found herself academically dismissed for poor grades.
Another October, another Columbus Day.
Tatyana Ragon has witnessed firsthand the good that can come from a bad situation. Once, she felt broken.
On Friday, Oct. 19, six more names were added to the elite group of ºÚÁÏÍø faculty members who have been awarded the Alumni Association’s Distinguished Teaching Award and the University Teaching Council’s Outstanding Teaching Award.

The ºÚÁÏÍø Board of Trustees today established a comprehensive, national search to recruit and select the university’s 13th president.
The events of May 4, 1970, placed ºÚÁÏÍø in an international spotlight after a student protest against the Vietnam War and the presence of the Ohio National Guard ended in tragedy with four students losing their lives and nine others being wounded. From a perspective of nearly 50 years, Kent State remembers the tragedy and leads a contemporary discussion and understanding of how the community, nation and world can benefit from understanding the profound impact of the event.
