Lunchtime Bike Ride Planned for Aug. 11

Bring your bike from home or check out a bike through the Flashfleet bike share program at one of eight locations around campus. Join Chris John from the Department of Recreational Services on Thursday, Aug. 11, at noon for a 30- to 40-minute ride on the Kent Campus, as well as the surrounding community. Flashfleet locations include the Student Recreation and Wellness Center, Eastway Center, Van Campen Hall, Tri-Towers, Terrace Hall, Stopher-Johnson, the Kent Student Center and PARTA in downtown Kent. 

*Registration in the Flashfleet bike share programs required for use of Flashfleet bikes (discount codes can be provided for all registered participants). For more information about Flashfleet, email Chris John at cjohn4@Kent.edu or call 330-474-0785. 

The group will meet at noon at the Flashfleet Kiosk at the Kent Student Center and begin a ride promptly at 12:10 p.m. A limited number of bikes are available at this kiosk, so please consider renting a bike from another location and biking to the Kent Student Center. Registration will be limited for the safety of the group. Helmets from home are strongly recommended.

Faculty & Staff Wellness Updates

Reminder: Changes Coming to 2026 Wellness Rewards

You asked, we delivered! We are pleased to announce some big changes coming to the Wellness Rewards program:

Open Enrollment Ended Friday Oct. 31

Important Information and Next Steps

Thank you for being engaged this Open Enrollment season. Maybe you took a few minutes to just review your benefit plans or maybe there were important changes to make and you took the time and opportunity to do so. With that being said, we had over a 77% participation rate in Open Enrollment.

Over the next few weeks, the Benefits team will be finalizing the Open Enrollment process and completing tasks to ensure all updates are in place for a Jan. 1, 2026 effective date.
