Charles and Nora Kegley
Love Wins

One of the most memorable moments of Homecoming 2016 wasn’t the heartbreaking last-minute loss to The University of Akron, but the heartwarming lovers who shared a β€œKiss on the K.” Since the Homecoming tradition began in 2011, ΒιΆΉΣ°ΤΊ State couples from across the country have come together on a painted β€œK” at Risman Plaza for a smooch when the library bells ring at 12:30 p.m.

Charles and Nora Kegley (Classes of 1956 and 1960) first met at a Florida beach during spring break and discovered they both attended ΒιΆΉΣ°ΤΊ State. The couple, pictured above, recently celebrated their 61st wedding anniversary. They have participated in the β€œKiss on the K” since it began; this year as an . β€œIt’s fun,” says Nora Kegley. β€œWe love being a part of it and seeing the other couples.”

Visual Appeal

We are a family of KSU attendees and grads, so we always look forward to reading the magazine. The Center for Visual Arts turned out awesome [β€œUnder One Roof,” summer]. The blend of old (1916), mid-century (1950) and new is an achievement in repurposing [that] speaks of and for the ages past, present and future.

Pertinent Poem

I enjoyed reading the poem β€œDriving While Black” [summer]. Being a black male with two young sons, I most certainly can relate and am, like every black father when it comes to this issue, more than a bit concerned with helping my sons negotiate this gauntlet.

Gee, Thanks

[Summer 2016] is clearly the best edition I’ve read in more than 35 years of receiving ΒιΆΉΣ°ΤΊ State Magazine. Balance, current issues focus and editing were excellent. Kudos to the staff for the outstanding effort!
