Kean Ocean

Students, faculty and staff: please be aware that on Wednesday, December 10, Kean University will follow a Tuesday course schedule. This means that all Tuesday courses will meet at their regular time and location instead of Wednesday courses.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy Thanksgiving! We're thankful today, and everyday, for our wonderful Kean University community. 🍂🦃

Thank you to all the Kean Ocean students and employees who joined us for our third annual Turkey Trot! It was wonderful to see our campus community come together during this month of gratitude and giving.

A special thank you to Angelo Gingerelli for leading this year’s event, Dr. Alexandra Stribing for bringing her students out to participate and to our Kean Ocean Vets - Andrew Clayton and Brock Torre - for their continued support.

If a class you want to take is full, you may be able to join the course section's waitlist. You’ll receive an email inviting you to join if a seat becomes available! Take action within 24 hours. Remember that waitlisting is NOT the same as registering for a course, and register for an alternate course if you plan to be a full-time student.

Today, Kean Ocean and Ocean County College proudly honored those who served at a “Salute to Veterans” event. Veterans from both campuses shared powerful reflections, joined by remarks from Chancellor Youngblood and President Monaco, who honored the history and meaning behind the flag folding ceremony. The day included a Veterans Breakfast and flag ceremonies, offering a heartfelt tribute to the service and sacrifice of our veterans and their families.
