Opened in 1920 under the name of Stow Aviation Field, in 1945 the terminal building was built and then in 1947, the large army surplus hangar was erected on the field. The university purchased the airport in 1943 and renamed it the Kent State University Airport. In 1966, the name of the field was changed to Andrew W. Paton Field to honor the professor who taught the university's first aerospace course in 1947.
