KSU Kickoff welcomes incoming students, including residential, commuter and transfer students to the fall semester with a one-of-a-kind, four day celebration.


Students engage in various activities and events that help them become more familiar with the 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ University community, faculty and staff, make new friends and prepare to start off the Fall 2024 Semester. Representatives from 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ's 350+ student organizations are present to welcome new members to their groups. Some events are required while other events are optional based on a student's individual interests and needs.

91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ University President Todd Diacon, Ph.D., greeted students and Golden Flashes Football Head Coach Kenni Burns was there to get everyone excited about the upcoming football season.
