Positive Impact

This weekend marks a significant milestone for Kent State University’s Regional Campus system as more than 1,700 graduates are honored in commencement ceremonies across Northeast Ohio. On campuses spanning from Lake Erie to the Ohio River, these celebrations highlight the academic achievements and work readiness of its learners.

Kent State’s Regional Campuses were well-represented at the Association for University Regional Campuses of Ohio (AURCO) annual conference, during which Olivia Rice, a psychology student from Kent State Salem, earned a first-place ranking for her research poster. The conference was held earlier this month at Ohio University in Chillicothe.

Rice received the E. Ted Bunn Student Excellence Award-Best Poster for her research project titled “Undergraduate Student Benefits: Research Within Community Outreach.”
