Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Education  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Average You get out of the experience what you put into it.This is true for KSU as well. I sought out the better professors, took charge of my academic planning, and pushed myself to get involved. I had a very good experience. Many of the people I encountered who were not satisfied were simply lazy. They wanted so much done FOR them instead of finding out for themselves (mmm, could this be 'education'?) My biggest complaints (and the reason why my son chose another school): Academic advising-haphazard and sloppy and if you dont make an effort in this ares yourself, you will have a lousy experience. Other than that, I have only minor complaints. Perceived Campus Safety: A, Individual Value: F Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.

If I had any complaints, it would be that the Psychology undergrad courses are almost always taught by grad students; professors typically only teach if it's a special topics course. Also, the university spends money pretty frivolously (like buying Lester Lefton a $15,000 golf cart to drive around campus) & sidewalks aren't shoveled in winter + class never gets cancelled for BAD weather. I'm also a Studio Art student. The art faculty can be a little pretentious at times, & they have EXTREMELY high expectations from art students & try to consider themselves a professional art school (like SAIC-level). They do Sophomore Review, where they have the ability to kick you out if you're an Art major (I'm just a minor & skipped this). However, all the professors are really fun & usually funny, & will go out to have a cigarette & awesome conversations with their students.However, research is really easy to get involved in, teaching faculty in all majors / fields are easy to talk to, student organizations are really easy to get involved in, & Dining Services is EXTREMELY helpful. They put in full, huge menus & a lot of effort to make the school really vegetarian & vegan friendly, AND it takes amazing. I love the primarily liberal atmosphere & how "hippie" the entire town is (downtown Kent is adorable & the community is easy to be involved in too!). Awesome school, definitely deserves a positive review & A's. Useful Schoolwork: A+, Campus Maintenance: D+ Have a Question?

I was even one of the fortunate ones to get a job right out of college, mainly because of Kent's business program. Kent's business school is top notch in NEO, and is well recognized in the region. Sure, President Lefton makes way to much money, but if you ever had a problem or concern, just ask. Everyone is always afraid to ask for help, thats the problem with my generation. Everyone just wants to do for themselves and not ask. Well, I've found if you ask for help, things do get done. Kent's social life is great, I was apart of the greek system, and would recommend it to anyone. Kent is a very good school, sorry that I was out going and didn't sit back like most students there. I challenged myself to make friends everyday and get involved with much as possible. Kent State state gave me a great education, and I'd go back tomorrow if I had the chance.
