Kent State University has signed a five-year memorandum of understanding with the National Park Service that should lead to enhanced collaboration in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
The agreement, signed last month and announced Thursday, calls for collaborative projects and joint research focused on geology, biology, hydrology and educational programs.
The theme of the collaboration is “The River We Share” because the Cuyahoga River flows through both the park and through the city of Kent.
The new agreement will lead to expanded internship opportunities for Kent State students, the university said.
