Seventy-year-old Rudd (Ted) Bare II had the surprise of a lifetime planned for his children on Aug. 18, 2018.

The National Collegiate Honors Council has named recent Kent State University graduate Megan Swoger a 2018 Portz Scholar. She is the ninth Kent State student to receive the honor since the inception of the Portz Scholars competition in 1990.

Freshmen at the American Academy attend a welcome reception before starting classes. The American Academy is a new partnership between Kent State University and Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná (PUCPR), a major university in Brazil, for students who want a global experience while earning their degree. 

Kent State University at Ashtabula Dean and Chief Administrative Officer Susan J. Stocker, Ph.D., was presented with the Marta K. Stone Excellence in Leadership Award from LEADERship Ashtabula County at the organization’s annual meeting that was held Aug. 1. 

Perhaps the most surprising thing about Kent State University student Carrie Esser is that she is not an art major but she has gained a reputation for her makeup and body-painting business.

Congratulations to the following faculty members who are receiving tenure:
