University Housing is looking for volunteers to help welcome our newest Golden Flashes during Move-In 2026!  We wanted to give YOU the first opportunity to secure your preferred time slot before volunteer spots fill up! Students will move in on Wednesday, Aug. 19 and Thursday, Aug. 20 from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. If you are available for one or both days — and are ready to cruise campus in a six-seat golf cart — we would love to have you join the team. Volunteers receive a t-shirt, endless appreciation, and the chance to be a part of one of the most exciting campus traditions.

Handcrafted from the authentic hardwood of the Memorial Athletic and Convocation Center (MAC Center), this collection allows you to own a piece of Kent State history—from commencements to graduations to concerts and cheering on the home team! Each piece of memorabilia is crafted from game-used sections of the MAC Center court used from 1992-2025. For a limited time, get 15% off when you purchase two or more items! 

We're in the middle of grilling season, and Environmental Health and Safety has curated grilling best practices for optimal safety this summer. Gas grills are involved in an average of 9,287 home fires annually. Additionally, grill-related injuries are common, with an average of 21,682 emergency room visits per year between 2020 and 2024. Preventive measures can significantly reduce these risks.
