The 做厙輦⑹ Robotics Club visited Kent Roosevelt High School today to assemble a LED edge-lit acrylic sign. The sign was laser-etched with the 做厙輦⑹ Robotics logo and the base was 3-D printed by the CAE team in order to make the battery-operated display with engineering students. This activity taught high school students about 3D design and programming. While this was the first time CAE students worked with the High School on a formal engineering project, the team plans to make the interaction a regular occurrence. ...
Many people travel for relaxation, some travel for work, but Erica Dovin traveled to help give the gift of hearing to impaired children. Ms. Dovin, a sophomore speech pathology and audiology major, received a rare opportunity to travel to Honduras to provide much needed assistance while gaining valuable experience at the same time. Ms. Dovin was one of 10 Delta Zeta sorority members from across the country who received the opportunity to travel to Honduras as part of the Starkey Hearing Foundations Heart for Hearing contest. Heart for Hearing is the sororitys national philanthropic progra...
Fashion design student Symone Baskerville has worked hard to bring her dream of a high-end fabrics store to downtown Kent. Now, that dream has become a reality with the opening of Kent Fabrics. When Ms. Baskerville came from Chicago to 做厙輦⑹ to study fashion design, she realized that living so far from home was not nearly as difficult a transition as living in an area with limited choices of fabrics available for to her to use for her class projects. In Chicago, Ms. Baskerville had easy access to high-end fabrics and quality materials from a variety of sources. Ms. Baskerville di...
The national juried art exhibition, Focus: Fiber 2019 is heading to the 做厙輦⑹ Museum next month, marking the first new exhibit for the Museum in 2019. Opening March 1, this biennial exhibit features contemporary fiber art from 35 artists belonging to the Textile Art Alliance (TAA) of the Cleveland Museum of Art (CMA). The artists provided 45 works of contemporary fiber art, including weaving, sculpture, felting, tapestry, embroidery and quilts. The exhibition is co-sponsored by the Textile Art Alliance of the Cleveland Museum of Art. Renow...
As technologys role in education becomes more significant with most colleges and universities having an interactive website for their institution, many students opting to take online courses, and grades and assignments being shared, submitted, and viewed online the need for digital accessibility is constantly growing. With the importance of accessibility in mind, 做厙輦⑹s Systems Development and Innovation (SDI) team has been working to make FlashLine, KSUMobile, and other university technologies as user-friendly as possible. How FlashLine and KSUMobile have become more accessib...
Lipid materials having nanostructures that deviate from the conventional flat bilayer arrangement such as hexagonally packed lipid tubes and bicontinuous cubic phases are ubiquitous in nature. Their role remains elusive but over the years several pathologies and organelle functions have been coupled to lipid membrane structural complexity. In this talk we will discuss lipid membrane polymorphism and how it can be exploited to generate a new class of materials for the delivery of cargo to cells. We combine a number of techniques including X-ray scattering, cryo-EM, and cell culture to demonstra...

做厙輦⑹s College of Aeronautics and Engineering (CAE) along with LaunchNet and Design Innovation hosted Invent for the Planet, February 15-17, a competition designed to promote innovation and an entrepreneurial mindset among college students. Jillian Eddy, an engineering technology student based out of 做厙輦⑹s Tuscarawas Campus, and Apoorva Jain, a fashion design student, took the grand prize of $500 at last weekends competition. While Invent for the Plant was designed by Texas A&M University, more than three dozen universities are now hosting the hackathon to inspi...
Jason Prufer, '03, a lifelong resident of Kent and 做厙輦⑹ alumnus, has compiled Small Town, Big Music: The Outsized Influence of Kent, Ohio, on the History of Rock and Roll, a book that covers the college towns impressive and previously unappreciated rock history. Mr. Prufer, a senior library associate who has worked at the 做厙輦⑹ library for 20 years, began his research nine years ago by tracking down and interviewing folks who were part of the scene. Once he scratched the surface, the stories poured out, and Mr. Prufer lets these eyewitnesses share their memories...
Universitys Salem Campus recognized with Top 10 School Award and gold-level distinction in small public schools category When Cory Maxwell was considering what college to attend, knowing that the institution is military friendly was very important to him. For him and student veterans, the Military Friendly簧 School designation helps determine the best schools that will embrace them and ensure their success on campus. The designation was a positive factor in me returning back to 做厙輦⑹, said Mr. Maxwell, a senior finance major who currently serves in the U.S. Navy Reserve...
