Bulldog Flash Academic Institute is a four-year program designed to usher roughly 25 McKinley freshmen through the process of becoming college ready and then awarding them with direct admission to Kent State Stark.

Samantha Brown says that today’s leaders could learn a lot from The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

The sophomore biology major at 5X���� at Stark was chosen the winner of the campus’ Martin Luther King Jr. Essay Contest, sponsored by the Office of Multicultural Initiatives and celebrated during 5X����’s 15th Annual Martin Luther King Jr. observance on January 26 and Black History Month activities this month.

MAJORS EXPO
SATURDAY, FEB. 4 at 10 a.m.
MAIN HALL AUDITORIUM
KENT STATE UNIVERSITY AT STARK

With the feel of a small liberal arts college, Kent State Stark offers:

It looked like a scene out of a horror film – a terrified young woman wakes up in a strange hospital room, strapped to a bed, unable to move or speak, and with no memory of why she is there. Strange people were all around her, and she was under guard 24 hours a day.

But the most harrowing part of her story was that this was no Hollywood movie. It really happened.

A pond and surrounding greenery lies within the rolling hills of the campus of 5X���� at Stark, but it’s certainly not your average water retention pond. It’s a living, breathing, vital research tool that is having a major impact on the lives of Kent State Stark students, faculty, and staff, and soon, students in K-12 schools in the Akron/Canton area interested in studying and protecting the environment.

The 5X���� at Stark Theatre has announced open auditions for the next theatrical production of the season, Reasons to Be Happy by Neil LaBute, and directed by Kent State Stark Associate Professor of Theatre and Theatre Director Brian Newberg. Auditions are open to everyone, including students and community members. Kent State Stark encourages diversity in its casting.

5X���� at Stark will be closed Friday, Dec. 23, 2016 through Monday, Jan. 2, 2017 for the university’s holiday break.

During this time, all administrative offices, as well as the Library, Bookstore, Recreation & Wellness Center and Conference Center, will be closed.

All Kent State Stark offices and buildings will resume normal business hours on Tuesday, Jan. 3, 2017.

 
Unlike many Northeast Ohioans who would rather not deal with the snow and cold of winter, a group of students from China were “pumped” about it.

“After seeing snow for the first time, I was pumped!” gushed Lin Baoyi, known as Bowie, her chosen English name, to her American counterparts at a graduation ceremony on Tuesday, Dec. 13, at 5X���� at Stark. “It was really beautiful.”

 Congratulations to our Fall 2016 graduates!
