Horn, Samuel Krugliak, and Ralph Regula were the leading figures in the founding of Stark State College in 1960. The founding President was Fred A Yenny. The college originally was named Stark County Technical Institute and over the years, renamed Stark State Technical Institute and Stark Technical College. In 1996, the college was renamed Stark State College of Technology and, most recently, renamed as Stark State College.[2] The college introduced its first new logo in 57 years on January 17, 2017. Stark State called the new logo, "a contemporary image intended to resonate with prospective students, now and into the future."[3] LocationsStark State is located on {{convert|200|acre}} in Jackson Township near North Canton, Ohio. Stark State also owns {{convert|42|acre}} on the corner of Frank and Mega roads, used primarily for parking. Recently the college expanded the campus by six buildings and {{convert|200000|sqft|m2|abbr=on}}. Stark State also offers classes at satellite campuses in Alliance, Barberton and Downtown Canton. Stark State College AkronStark State College opened a site at 755 White Pond Dr. in Akron, where the College began offering classes in January 2017. Stark State is currently leasing three of four floors (34,212 square feet) in the White Pond building, which already housed classrooms and laboratories and required minimal modification and capital investment by the College.[4] Stark State College Akron’s permanent location along Route 8 at the Perkins Street exit is currently under construction. The 68,000-square-foot facility is scheduled for completion in March 2018, opening in Fall 2018.[5] Stark State plans to initially enroll 1,500 students, and anticipates enrolling 5,000 once construction is complete.[6] As of May 2018, Stark State and the neighboring University of Akron were in discussions to allow "recipients of two-year degrees from Stark to transfer into the university's four-year programs."[6] AccreditationStark State College is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association. In addition, a number of its specific programs are separately accredited by organizations in their respective fields.[7] Fuel-cell researchStark State College constructed a $4.7 million Fuel Cell Prototyping Center in the fall of 2006. The Center is designed for use by emerging and fuel cell-related technology companies to assist them in pre-commercialization prototyping and demonstration stages of the development of fuel cell-based power generation systems. The charter tenant in the Fuel Cell Prototyping Center was SOFCO and Rolls-Royce Fuel Cell Systems (US) Inc, now LG Fuel Cell Systems. A fuel cell is a stand-alone generator much like a battery; it can create its own power from electrochemical reduction. Stark State offers a fuel cell technology option, one-year technical certificate, certificate of competency and scholarship as part of the mechanical engineering technology program. Upward Bound Math-Science AcademyStark State participates in the Upward Bound Math-Science Academy (UBMS) which is a college-preparatory program funded by the U.S. Department of Education and Stark State College. The Academy includes year-round academic support and a summer program that provides academic, career and social enrichment to students considering careers in the science, engineering, technology and mathematics (STEM) fields. Upward Bound is available to Canton City School students in grades 9-12. Stark State also provides a program that supports and pays Stark State students to mentor those in the UBMS Academy.
