What is the Kent State Golden Flashes Logo?
An eagle with a lightning bolt flying over KENT in blue. To increase school spirit and introduce a new era during the university’s sesquicentennial in 1985, the athletics department hatches an elaborate and carefully scripted campaign to unveil Kent State’s first official mascot, Flash—The Golden Eagle, during the Oct. 12 Homecoming game. An eagle was chosen because the university wanted something proud and there is nothing prouder than an eagle. The new logos included an eagle.
