The Annual Report from the President's office is a comprehensive look at major events and activities of Kent State University for the given year. According to introductory text in Robert I.

These reports contain high-level summary information about student enrollment, revenues and expenditures, building projects, curricular changes, faculty achievements, events at regional campuses, and other highlights. The reports also serve as promotional outreach for the university.
