36. So true for those of us who lived in the area.

May 2022

I wasn't a student there, but when I was single I used to go there with my two roommates on the weekend for parties. Kent was considered the party school in that area. I was so conflicted when that happened because my then husband was in the Ohio National Guard and I always wondered what he would have done if he had been faced with that scenario. Luckily he wasn't there that day. In hindsight, I'm not sure he wouldn't have been one of the ones who would fire into the crowd if ordered to. That's why he's my ex.

Several of my nieces and nephews went to Kent.
