Lafayette Tolliver: Visual Footprints in Time
Kent State student photojournalist Lafayette Tolliver (BS '71) documented Black campus life, from 1967-1971. The exhibit provides viewers an array of subjects he documented and includes selected editorials he wrote in the Daily Kent Stater. The goal is to generate interest in and further exploration of this amazing body of work that Tolliver has shared with Kent State and the world.
Photographs in the Tolliver archive are fully digitized and available for viewing online. See our Feature Page for more information:
How do I report time for an employee that was unable to report to work due to inclement weather, even though the campus was not closed?
Inclement weather conditions may cause an employee to arrive to work late, be absent or leave work early. Employees should notify their supervisors if they are unable to report to work or feel it necessary to leave early. Any absence must be recorded in the form of leave (vacation, personal, or comp time). University leave policy governs the reporting and recording of work absences.
How do I report leave time for a staff member that calls in sick before the delay is announced?
Employees who have called in sick before a university delay is announced must use sick leave.
How do I report leave time for a staff member with leave that was approved before the delay?
Employees who have pre-scheduled and approved vacation, personal or sick leave before a university delay has been announced must use their vacation, sick or personal leave that was previously approved.
How do I know when the university is re-opening after a delayed start?
When there is a delayed start, the re-open time will be announced through normal university communication channels including local radio, television stations, Kent State email and the Kent State website. Employees may also receive emergency notifications by registering for the optional Flash ALERTS.
The official delay time at any campus will be determined on a case-by-case basis, depending on the circumstance and the time of day when the delay is announced.
