Update on the 2013 Class Gift Project
The Class of 2013 is raising money to purchase two televisions for a student lounge area that will be created on the southeast side of the 2nd floor Spaketeria. The existing space, which includes tables and chairs, will be converted to an informal student lounge with comfortable seating, group gathering space, and partitions to separate the lounge from the remaining area of the Spak.
The Class of 2013 Class Gift will purchase two flat-screen televisions to be mounted on the walls within this space, with a continuous CNN or other news feed for students to enjoy while meeting, studying, or relaxing in the updated space.
The Class of 2013 is 33% of the way toward their goal of $4,000. Help them reach their goal by making your gift today! Visit www.alumni.kentlaw.edu/classgift to see illustrations of the new space design.
