  • Homelessness Awareness Week

    From a soup kitchen experience to sleeping outdoors overnight, Kennesaw State University students saw firsthand the plight of the homeless during the University’s annual Homelessness Awareness Week. Now in its 11th year, the weeklong event served to end the stigma of homelessness by raising awareness among students and connecting them with the chance to help others across the Kennesaw State community and beyond. During the event organized by the Campus Awareness, Resource & Empowerment (CARE) Services, volunteers raised money and collected food and clothing to distribute to KSU students and the greater community.  –  November 08, 2018

  • Furniture of the Future

    In architecture, a building doesn’t have to be just four walls and a roof. Similarly, a chair doesn’t have to be four columns and a slab. At Kennesaw State University, architecture students are challenging what constitutes an urban space by creating outdoor furniture that is interactive and playful instead of drab and utilitarian. This fall, students taking the Tactical Urbanism course offered by the Department of Architecture were tasked with creating a series of so-called “urban chairs.” The chairs were designed and built by the students with the intent that they can be configured in multiple ways in order to make public spaces more appealing.  –  November 07, 2018

  • Written by Whitten | Ethics and Integrity Matter at KSU

    The people who make up Kennesaw State — the students, the faculty and staff — are at the heart of this University’s excellence. And a core value keeping that heart beating strong is a focus on integrity — always striving to do the right thing. KSU is deeply committed to the highest ethical and professional standards of conduct. To achieve and maintain this goal, it is worth reminding ourselves what being ethical truly means and how it affects our day-to-day professional and personal lives.  –  November 06, 2018
