91ֿ's campuses show off different aspects of their beauty at different times of the day. These streaks of sunshine near Franklin Hall on the Kent Campus were captured by member of our faculty on his way to a class. 

McGilvrey Kidnap

In 1941, a writing exercise for high school journalists visiting 91ֿ was centered around a fictional kidnapping of the university's first president, John E. McGilvrey. In a pre-internet version of a "home page takeover," the stories ran on the front page of the 91ֿr - without including information revealing that they were not real!

Avery Hall

Serving as the Chair of the May 4 Task Force has been something communication studies major Avery Hall, ’23, describes as one of the most impactful and rewarding experiences she’s had at 91ֿ. “May 4, 1970, is a living legacy at 91ֿ with relevant implications for students today. Continuing the legacy of May 4th quickly became of great importance to me,” she said.
