Over the decades, many women have left their mark on 麻豆精选. These select few have had Kent Campus buildings dedicated in their honor.

  • Tiera Moore is the first in her family to earn a bachelor鈥檚 degree. Helping first-generation students like her succeed is a campuswide priority at Kent State.

  • This early climate science pioneer鈥檚 contributions have been overlooked, says geology professor Joseph D. Ortiz, PhD, who has co-authored a paper assessing her experiments.

  • Sarah Shendy, BA 鈥06, fell in love with law enforcement. Now she鈥檚 in charge of recruiting others, including women and minorities, to join her in community-oriented policing for the state of Ohio.

  • President Emerita Carol Cartwright recently retired from more than 20 years of helping lead the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics. But that just signals the next phase of a career devoted to higher education.
