About Kent State University at Stark

According to Wikipedia, Kent State University at Stark is a satellite campus of Kent State University in Jackson Township, Ohio. It is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. History Although no facilities had been constructed for the Kent State Normal School in Kent, Ohio, in 1912 Kent's first president, John McGilvery, established extension centers, including one in the Canton area that would serve the area for several decades.

A citizens' site selection and financial support committee, selected an accessible location near the newly completed Interstate 77 in Jackson Township in March 1965. Most of the land was owned by Leo A. Frank and John Wyles, who had farmed it with their families for many years. Once the sale was approved, committee raised over $600,000. Groundbreaking and construction began on January 7, 1966 with the first facility, Main Hall, opening in the fall of 1967.
