TESTIMONIALS

“We enjoyed great food, prompt and courteous service and a beautiful atmosphere. The staff was professional and personable, and made us feel as though our wedding was the most important event on their calendar. It was the wedding of our dreams!”

“We received many flattering compliments from guests who praised the beauty of the facility, the appearance of The University Center, the great taste of the hors d’oeuvres and dinner, and the friendliness of the staff.

“In 2001, when The Professional Education and Conference Center opened its doors, the American Heart Association’s Gala was one of the first social events held there. Since then, our event has almost doubled in size and the center continues to accommodate us and service our needs! From the first person who greets you at the door to the Director of The University Center, every employee is friendly, professional, and helpful. OUR event is THEIR event and they take that responsibility “to heart!” Attention to detail, state-of-the art audio-visual equipment, caring and competent staff, and of course the luxurious atmosphere are just some of the things that distinguish this facility. Amazingly, this business-like Conference Center by day can be transformed into an elegant Ball Room by night and as a black tie event, our guests are welcomed into this inviting, up-scale setting to enjoy an evening of fine dining and all the extra touches that set The Conference Center apart from similar venues.

When working with The University Center, you come in as a client and leave as a friend and we want to once again thank our friends at Kent State University Stark Campus for helping to make our recent Gala a spectacular evening from start to finish!”
