Kent State University (also known as Kent, Kent State or KSU) is one of America’s largest university systems, the third largest university in Ohio after Ohio State University (57,748) and the University of Cincinnati (35,364), and the largest residential university in northeast Ohio. From its roots as one of Ohio’s original four-corner universities, Kent State University focuses on teaching and research excellence to serve the public good. Kent State distinguishes itself as a magnet for high-achieving students. Kent State is a traditional, selective, residential public research university; it is also a multicampus university, with open access on its Regional Campuses to serve local communities in Northeast Ohio.[3] Its eight campuses provide easy and extensive access to degree programs from the associate to doctoral levels as well as medical degrees. The university’s academic programs and facilities attract students, faculty, and visitors from across the nation and the world. Kent State is a Carnegie Foundation Doctoral/Research University-Extensive, one of 90 public institutions to be so designated. Kent State is located in Kent, Ohio, United States, which is about 40 miles (60 km) southeast of Cleveland, 12 miles (19 km) east of Akron, and 30 miles (50 km) west of Youngstown. With 34,056 students across eight campuses, Kent State serves as one of the largest employers in northeast Ohio.
[edit] History
In 1910, the Kent State Normal School was established as a college for training public school teachers as part of the Lowry bill which also created sister school Bowling Green State Normal School. The new school was constructed on land donated by William S. Kent (grandson of Marvin Kent, the namesake for the city of Kent) in what was then the eastern edge of Kent. The first president was John Edward McGilvrey, who served from 1912 to 1926. By 1915, the school was named Kent State Normal College[4], then Kent State College (after it was authorized to issue Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees), and finally Kent State University after it received university status in 1935. The bill granting Kent State university status was signed by Governor Martin L. Davey, a native of Kent, and created graduate degree programs and the College of Business Administration. In 1965, Chemistry professor Glenn H. Brown established the Liquid Crystal Institute, which has become a world leader in the development of liquid crystals.
In 1967, Kent State became the first university to run its own independent and student-operated bus service by establishing Campus Bus Service. It was unique in that it not only provided jobs for students, but also received funding from fees charged to students rather than fares collected on the buses. As a result, no fares are collected on campus for any riders and KSU students can ride free from any location with a valid KSU ID. The service was originally necessitated by a 75% enrollment growth from 1964-1969 and the increasing parking needs of the student body. Campus Bus Service was the largest such operation in the country and functioned as a service of the university until it was sold to the Portage Area Transportation Authority (PARTA) in 2004. It continues to operate on and around campus as a division of PARTA. [1]
The multibillion-dollar liquid crystal industry was born at the university’s world-renowned Liquid Crystal Institute in 1970 with the discovery of the LCD, named by Forbes magazine as one of 85 innovations that change the way we live today.
Kent State gained international attention on May 4, 1970 when an Ohio National Guard unit fired at students during a war protest on campus, killing four and wounding nine. This event, known as the Kent State shootings, caused an immediate closure of the campus as well as many other college campuses around the nation. The Guard had been called into Kent after several protests in and around campus had become violent, including the rioting of downtown Kent and the burning of the ROTC building. The main cause of the protests was the United States' invasion of Cambodia during the Vietnam War.
Kent State was again in the national spotlight in 1977 when construction was set to begin on the Memorial Gym Annex, adjacent to the area where the shootings had occurred in 1970. Protesters organized a tent city in May, which lasted into July. Several attempts were made to block construction even after the end of the tent city, including an appeal to Congress to have the area declared a national historic landmark, but these attempts failed. Construction finally began on September 19, and finished in 1979.[2]
In 1994, Kent State earned status as a Research University II from the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. In 2000, the foundation changed its classification system and Kent State was classified as a Doctrinal/Research University-Extensive, one of just 90 public research schools in the country in this classification.[5]

[edit] Alma Mater & Fight Song
Alma Mater:
From the beauty land Ohio comes a universal praise,
'Tis the song of Alma Mater that her sons and daughters raise.
'Tis a Hail to Kent forever, on the Cuyahoga shore,
Now we join the loving thousands as they sing it o'er and o'er.
Hail to Thee, our Alma Mater.
O, how beautiful Thou art,
High enthroned upon the hilltop,
Reigning over every heart.
Fight Song:
Fight on for KSU
Fight for the Blue and Gold!
We're out to beat the foe;
Fight on brave and bold!
Fight on for victory,
Don't stop until we're through.
We're all together,
Let's go forward, K-S-U!
[edit] University Press
The Kent State University Press is the publishing arm of Kent State University. Their mission is "to advance knowledge through publishing." The Kent State University Press's imprint is controlled by an Editorial Board composed of Kent faculty scholars. As a member of the Association of American University Presses, it is included in the select group of more than 100 university-sponsored scholarly presses, whose outstanding programs make them an important segment of the publishing and academic community.
The Press began in 1965 under the direction of Howard Allen and published in the University faculty strengths in literary criticism. In 1972 Paul Rohmann became the Press's second director and expanded the Press's publishing program to include regional studies and ethnomusicology. In 1985 historian John Hubbell assumed the directorship and for fifteen years saw the staff and publishing program grow to include widely regarded lists in Civil War history and Ohio history. Today, under director Will Underwood, the Press publishes 30 to 35 titles a year and reaches a large and appreciative audience.
