Kent State University will honor its faculty members with a week of celebration themed “You Inspire Us!” from April 13-17.

“It gives me particular pleasure to recognize the great work and dedication of our faculty colleagues,” says Todd Diacon, Kent State’s senior vice president and provost. “Faculty Appreciation Week is but a small token of our appreciation for all that you do, and I hope you will join me, and most importantly your colleagues, as we celebrate all that you do for Kent State University.”

The week of celebration begins with a faculty appreciation breakfast event on Monday, April 13, from 8:30-10:30 a.m. in the Kent Student Center Ballroom. To confirm your attendance at the breakfast event, visit www.kent.edu/facultyweek.

The celebration will continue on Thursday, April 16, with a Faculty Club Fun and Frolic at 5 p.m. at the Schwebel Dining Room in the Kent Student Center.
