                         Dear Kent Fund Shareholder:

                              Enclosed is the semi-annual report for The Kent
                         Equity Funds for the six months ended June 30, 1996.
                         Inside, you'll find a Market Overview that describes
                         the economic and market conditions that we believe
                         affected the Funds' performances during this time.
                         There are also Portfolio Reviews for each Fund that
                         explain how the Fund managers adjusted their portfolios
                         in the prevailing investment environment and what the
                         managers expect in the months to come.

                              During the period, the Kent Funds concentrated on
                         providing shareholders good value and attractive
                         potential for growth while managing risks. If you have
                         any questions about your investments after reading this
                         report, please call 1-800-633-KENT (1-800-633-5368) to

                         to providing you with useful information that can help
                         you make the most of your investments.

                              Sincerely,

     Stock prices continued to rise in the first half of 1996 -- even though
signs of faster economic growth prompted fears of higher inflation and interest
rates that raised long-term Treasury bond yields nearly a percentage point.
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Standard & Poor's 500[Registered
Trademark] Composite Stock Price Index ("S&P 500 Index") earned a total return
of 10.2%, which would translate into a return of more than 21.4% for 1996 if
the same advance continued all year. While this would fall quite a bit behind
the 37.4% total return stocks, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, earned in
1995, it would comfortably exceed the 10.5% average annual return stocks have
earned since 1929.
     Although corporate earnings have begun to slow, they remained relatively
strong in the last six months. Common stocks also benefited from record flows of
cash into equity mutual funds -- at the same time that corporate mergers and
share repurchases tightened issue supplies.
     Stock prices have become significantly more volatile, however. Between
January and June of 1996, for example, the New York Stock Exchange imposed
restrictions on program trading 58 times. This exceeds the previous yearly
record of 30 times in 1994. Increased volatility often occurs at the end of a
large advance.
     During the first half of 1996 smaller company stocks outperformed
larger-company stocks -- although large-company stocks took the lead when
investors were most concerned about the economy. We believe small-company issues
rallied primarily because they had underperformed since October of 1994 and had
fairly reasonable valuations in an otherwise overvalued market. Stocks of small
companies may have also benefited as advances in the U.S. dollar dampened the
earnings of larger firms.

ONGOING ECONOMIC CONCERN
     Many investors have spent considerable time worrying that the economy was
either too strong or too weak. Such seesawing of expectations is generally not
healthy for common stocks. In the months ahead, monthly economic reports that
give an indication of the economy's growth rate during the current quarter
should be a key to investor behavior.
     Investors generally want to see that economic growth is moderating to a
pace that is more sustainable, and that inflation remains low enough to prevent
significant increases in interest rates. Investors also want to know, however,
that growth will be strong enough to keep profits at a high level through 1997.
     We expect economic growth to slow in the second half of this year.
Taken with virtually nonexistent pricing power, battles for market share should
intensify. This will create pressure on corporate earnings as profit margins
suffer. Softer profits could become the economy's weak link -- causing declines
in employment, spending, and production later in the year. The coming quarters
likely will bring a very bumpy ride for common stocks as investors realize that
the earnings stream is much more volatile in both directions.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

VALUATION WORRIES
     The stock market also remains vulnerable to high valuations. The common
stocks of large domestic companies continue to look expensive to us -- selling
at their lowest dividend yields in history, the highest premium to book value in
history and at their highest ratio of market value to gross domestic product in
history. The major stock market indices haven't had a 10% correction since
October 1990 -- nor even a 5% correction in 18 months.
     To many investors, common stocks appear to be a riskless investment. As a
result, the stock market has remained overbought on a virtually continuous basis
since late-1990. The backup in Treasury bond yields to 7% provides the stock
market with very little valuation elbow room. Any further increases in bond
yields could be a truly significant hurdle for common stocks to overcome.
     Of prime importance is how much pain the newest investors in common stocks
will endure. In our opinion, the accelerating inflows into aggressive-growth
mutual funds clearly indicates that money is chasing performance.
Unquestionably, this condition may continue for a while. At some juncture,
however, we feel these inflows are bound to weaken.
     Meanwhile, it is now taking significant cash to move stock prices a
comparatively small amount. Last year $128.9 billion flowed into equity mutual
funds and the S&P 500 Index had a total return of 37.4%. In the first six months
of 1996, $139.5 billion of new money came in, and the S&P 500 Index returned
10.1%. We feel this is an ominous sign that points to a bull market that is
aging rapidly.
     There is further evidence to suggest the aging of the bull market in the
decidedly speculative turn that investors have undertaken. The market in initial
public offerings (IPOs) has traditionally been a good barometer of investor
sentiment and currently looks quite heated. In most cases, investors participate
in this market from almost a purely emotional viewpoint as newly launched
companies offer little history and no prior experience upon which to base
thoughtful investment decisions. Today's feverish IPO environment signals
rampant investor greed that, in the past, has generally raised short-term risks.
     Further cash flows into equity mutual funds could force common stock prices
higher, bringing us ever closer to a break in the valuation rubber band. We
believe that the extreme level of valuation and the overtone of speculative
activity have greatly raised the level of risk associated with common stocks
today. We continue to feel that the portfolios of The Kent Equity Funds are well
positioned for whatever happens to common stocks for the rest of this year.

THE KENT GROWTH AND INCOME FUND 
BY MICHAEL A. PETERSEN,
CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER
AND 
ANDREW H. FABIANO,
CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER

     Expecting stock prices to be more volatile in 1996, we took several
defensive measures at the end of 1995 to protect the value of shares in The Kent
Growth and Income Fund. This, plus added investments in stocks that performed
especially well, helped the Fund earn competitive returns for the six months
ended June 30, 1996.
     During that time, the Fund's Institutional and Investment Shares had total
returns of 8.90% and 8.77%, respectively, before the deduction of sales charges.
That compares with returns of 9.21% for the average growth and income fund
tracked by Lipper Analytical Services and 10.20% for the Standard & Poor's
500[Registered Trademark] Composite Stock Price Index ("S&P 500 Index").

FOCUS ON RETAIL AND ENERGY STOCKS
     After stock prices had risen strongly in 1995, we gave greater emphasis to
stocks that had less risk than the market as a whole. As of June 30, 1996, the
Fund had a beta of 0.90 -- making it only 90% as volatile as stocks in the S&P
500 Index.
     In addition, we purchased new investments for the Fund to increase the
diversity of the portfolio. We gave particular attention to stocks in the retail
sector, which enjoyed a healthy rebound during the period. Energy stocks
outperformed in the first half of the year and we benefitted from being slightly
overweighted compared to the benchmark. Toward the end of the period we took
profits in technology stocks that had rallied. This has left the Fund
underweighted in that sector compared to the S&P 500 Index. The Fund is also
underweighted in financial stocks, which are especially sensitive to changes in
interest rates.

</TABLE>

FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES
     If slower growth in earnings and lower cash flows to mutual funds weaken
stock prices, as we expect, we could use this as an opportunity to diversify the
Fund's holdings even further. We've now begun to sell some of the Fund's retail
stocks that have met our expectations and add shares of utilities and firms in
early cyclical sectors. We will look carefully at forthcoming second-quarter
earnings reports to find other investments that might be attractive.

Past performance is no guarantee of future performance. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that your 
shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Performance for each class will differ based on differences
in sales charges and expenses for each class of shares. Return figures and investment values are quoted after deducting class
expenses and sales charges (if applicable). Investment class shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.00%. The
Standard & Poor's 500[Registered Trademark] Composite Stock Price Index is an unmanaged index of 500 selected common stocks, most of
which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Total return is based on change in Net Asset Value, assuming reinvestment of all

THE KENT SMALL COMPANY GROWTH FUND 
BY MICHAEL A. PETERSEN,
CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER
AND 
ANDREW H. FABIANO,
CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER

     The strong rally by small-company stocks in the first half of 1996 boosted
returns for The Kent Small Company Growth Fund during that time. For the six
months ended June 30, 1996, returns for the Fund's Institutional and Investment
Shares were 12.77% and 12.54%, respectively, before the deduction of sales
charges. Over the same period the average small-cap growth fund tracked by
Lipper Analytical Services returned 14.84% and the Russell 2000 Index returned
10.40%.

CONTINUED ATTENTION TO VALUE 

     Throughout the period we continued to take a value-oriented approach toward
the Fund's investments. By emphasizing companies whose prices were especially
attractive compared to their potential for growth, we helped the Fund weather
the turnaround in small-company issues that occurred in June relatively well.

     As before, we focused on common stocks whose prices tend to be less
volatile than other stocks in the small-company universe as a whole. At the end
of June, the Fund had an average beta of 0.88 when compared to the Russell 2000
Index, making the Fund only 88% as volatile as the Russell 2000 Index. 

     The Fund also benefited from the broad diversification of its portfolio.
During the period there were especially strong gains from investments in retail,
energy and technology issues.

SMALL-COMPANY OUTLOOK

     We believe that the small-company sector remains among the more attractive
areas in the stock market. This is especially true of shares representing strong
value, where we've concentrated investments in The Kent Small Company Growth
Fund. If stock prices correct as corporate earnings and cash flows to mutual
funds start to ebb, we expect to find many new investment opportunities that
would help diversify the Fund's portfolio further. Many of these may come from
stocks in cyclical sectors, whose prices have been dampened by ongoing
uncertainty about the economy.

THE KENT INTERNATIONAL GROWTH FUND 
BY MICHAEL A. PETERSEN,
CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER
AND 
DAVID C. EDER,
CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER


     The Kent International Growth Fund performed in line with the developed
markets represented in the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe,
Australia and Far East (EAFE) Index for the six months ended June 30, 1996.
During that time, Institutional and Investment shares of the Fund returned 4.65%
and 4.46%, respectively, before the deduction of sales charges. That compares to
returns of 4.50% for the EAFE Index.

     Benefiting from exposure to Latin America, where stocks gained 15.4%, the
average international fund tracked by Lipper Analytical Services returned 9.76%.

STRONG PERFORMANCES IN EUROPE 

     The Fund weights the stocks of individual countries based on both the
countries' relative weightings in the EAFE Index and the countries' relative
gross domestic products (GDPs). At the end of 1995 the Fund adjusted its
weightings to reflect recent changes in national GDPs. This gave the Fund
additional representation in France, Italy and Germany, where dollar-adjusted
total returns for stocks during the period were 11.1%, 12.8% and 4.5%,
respectively. European stocks as a whole had a total return of 6.4% during the
first half of 1996.

     Stocks didn't fare as well in Pacific Rim countries during the first half
of 1996, which earned an average six-month return of 2.6%. Emerging nations
there fared better than Japan, where stocks returned just 1.1%. Although we
increased investments in Japan slightly at the end of 1995, Japanese stocks were
still underweighted in the Fund's portfolio relative to the EAFE Index. This
also helped the Fund's performance during the period.

</TABLE>


STRONGER GROWTH LIKELY

     After lagging U.S. economic growth for several years, we believe that many
foreign economies could begin a period of outperformance in the second half of
this year. Government stimulation programs and falling interest rates are now
causing stronger domestic demand for goods in many foreign economies. Meanwhile
favorable currency valuations have helped to expand exports. If returns for U.S.
stocks weaken, as we expect, the low valuations in overseas markets could
attract many new investors.

THE KENT INDEX EQUITY FUND 

BY MICHAEL A. PETERSEN,
CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER
AND 
DAVID C. EDER,
CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER

     Large-company stocks performed relatively well in the six months ended June
30, 1996. Their gains relative to small-company stocks were particularly strong
at the beginning and the end of the period, when investors were most unsure
about the economy.

     For the six months ended June 30, 1996, Institutional and Investment shares
of The Kent Index Equity Fund had total returns of 9.74% and 9.71%,
respectively, before the deduction of sales charges. Over the same time the
average growth and income fund tracked by Lipper Analytical Services returned
9.21%, and the S&P 500[Registered Trademark] Composite Stock Price Index had a
total return of 10.20%.

     Large-company stocks remain quite overvalued by historical standards, with
dividend yields the lowest they've ever been. At the same time, large-company
shares must compete with an increasingly heavy calendar of initial public
offerings (IPOs).

     As a result, we think this sector remains particularly ripe for a temporary
price correction. If economic growth and inflation remain moderate, however, and
interest rates stay near current levels, we believe many investors could use
such a correction to buy additional shares of large-company issues.

 THE KENT
  FUNDS
- ----------

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.  ORGANIZATION

     The Kent Funds (the "Trust") was organized as a Massachusetts business
trust on May 9, 1986 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended, as an open-end management investment company. As of the date of this
report, the Trust offered thirteen managed investment portfolios. The
accompanying financial statements and financial highlights are those of the
Growth and Income Fund (formerly ValuePlus Equity Fund), Small Company Growth
Fund (formerly Expanded Market Equity Fund), International Growth Fund (formerly
International Equity Fund) and Index Equity Fund (individually, a "Portfolio",
collectively the "Portfolios") only. The Trust offers two classes of shares:
Investment and Institutional. The Investment Shares are offered with a 4.00%
sales load.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The
following is a summary of significant accounting policies in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles consistently followed by the Portfolios
in the preparation of the financial statements.

PORTFOLIO VALUATION: Listed securities are valued at the last sales price on 
the principle exchange where such securities are traded. Listed securities 
for which last sales prices are not available are valued at the last bid 
price. Unlisted securities are valued at the mean of the current bid and 
asked prices in the principle market where such securities trade. Short-term 
obligations that mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, 
which constitutes fair value and approximates market value. All other 
securities and other assets are appraised at their fair value as determined 
in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under 
the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. 

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: Investments and other assets and liabilities 
initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted each business day 
into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Realized gains and 
losses on foreign investments and foreign income and expenses are converted 
into U.S. dollars based upon exchange rates prevailing on the respective 
dates of such transactions. That portion of unrealized gains or losses on 
investments due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not 
separately disclosed.

     Foreign currency-denominated receivables and payables are
"marked-to-market" using the current exchange rate. The fluctuation between the
original exchange rate and the current exchange rate is recorded as unrealized
currency gain or loss. Upon receipt of payment, a Portfolio realizes a gain or
loss on foreign currency amounting to the difference between the original value
and the ending value of the receivable or payable. Foreign currency gains and
losses related to dividend receivables are reported as part of dividend income.

FUTURES CONTRACTS:  Each Portfolio may invest in futures contracts. The 
Portfolios generally enter into futures contracts to hedge against declines 
in the value of their portfolios' securities. This investment involves, to 
varying degrees, elements of market risk and risks in excess of amounts 
recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The face or contract 
amounts reflect the extent of the involvement the Portfolios have in the 
particular classes of instruments. Risks include an imperfect correlation 
between the movements in the price of the instruments and the price of the 
underlying securities and interest rates. Risks also may arise if there is an 
illiquid secondary market for the instruments or due to the inability of 
counterparties to perform under the terms of the contract.

     Cash is deposited with brokers in order to maintain a position. Subsequent
payments made or received daily by a Portfolio based on the change in the market
value of the position are recorded as unrealized gain or loss until the contract
is closed out at which time the gain or loss is realized.

     Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day
by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.

FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS:   
The International Growth Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange
contracts. The purpose of these contracts is to hedge against fluctuation in the
value of the underlying currency of certain portfolio investments. A forward
foreign currency exchange contract is an agreement to purchase or sell a
specified currency at a specified price on a future date. Risks

associated with the contract include changes in the value of the foreign
currency relative to the U.S. dollar and/or the counterparty's potential
inability to perform under the contract.

     The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued daily using the
current exchange rate of the underlying currency with any fluctuations recorded
as unrealized gains or losses. Realized gains or losses are recognized when
entering a closing or offsetting forward foreign currency exchange contract with
the same settlement date and broker.

SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME:  Securities transactions are 
recorded on the trade date. Net realized gains and losses from securities and 
currency transactions are recorded on the basis of identified cost. Interest 
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the 
ex-dividend date.

     The International Growth Fund, upon the purchase or sale of a security
denominated in a foreign currency, may enter into foreign currency exchange
contracts for the purchase or sale, for a fixed amount of U.S. dollars, of the
amount of foreign currency involved in the underlying security transaction to
hedge the portfolio against currency fluctuations during the settlement period.
In such cases, the Portfolio has not realized currency gains or losses between
the trade and settlement dates on these security transactions.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:   
The Portfolios declare and distribute dividends from net investment income
monthly, with the exception of the International Growth Fund which declares and
pays dividends annually. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at
least annually.

     The amounts of income and capital gains to be distributed are determined in
accordance with income tax regulations. Such amounts may vary from income and
capital gains recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.

FEDERAL TAXES: The Trust treats each Portfolio as a separate entity for 
Federal income tax purposes. Each Portfolio intends to continue to qualify 
each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M 
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. By so qualifying, each 
Portfolio will not be subject to Federal income taxes to the extent that it 
distributes all of its taxable or tax-exempt income. In addition, by 
distributing during each calendar year substantially all of its net 
investment income and capital gains, each Portfolio will not be subject to a 
Federal excise tax. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. 
Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been paid or provided for in 
accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.

EXPENSES:  Expenses directly attributable to a Portfolio are charged to the 
Portfolio, while expenses which are attributable to more than one investment 
portfolio of the Trust are allocated among the respective portfolios. In 
addition, investors in Investment Shares will pay the expenses directly 
attributable to the Investment Shares as a class, and investors in 
Institutional Shares will pay the expenses directly attributable to the 
Institutional Shares as a class.

3.   INVESTMENT ADVISORY, ADMINISTRATION, DISTRIBUTION AND OTHER FEES  

     Old Kent Bank ("Investment Adviser") serves as the investment adviser to
the Trust. The Investment Adviser is a Michigan State Banking Association and
the principal subsidiary of Old Kent Financial Corporation. The Trust pays the
Investment Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of
0.70% of the average daily net assets of the Growth and Income Fund and Small
Company Growth Fund, 0.75% of the average daily net assets of the International
Growth Fund and 0.30% of the average daily net assets of the Index Equity Fund.

     Effective March 31, 1995, First Data Investor Services Group, Inc.
("FDISG"), formerly known as The Shareholder Services Group, Inc. doing business
as 440 Financial, a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Data Corporation ("First
Data"), serves as the Trust's administrator and transfer agent. FDISG (the
"Administrator"), receives a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual
rate of 0.20% for up to $5.0 billion, 0.18% for $5.0 to $7.5 billion and 0.15%
for over $7.5 billion of the Trust's aggregate net assets. In addition, FDISG
also receives a separate fee from each Portfolio for certain transfer agent
services ("shareholder services fees") and fund accounting services. Prior to
March 31, 1995, the administration, fund accounting and transfer agency services
described above were provided by 440 Financial Group of Worcester, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of State Mutual Life Assurance Company of America
("State Mutual") for the same annual fees. On March 31, 1995, FDISG acquired
substantially all the assets of 440 Financial Group of Worcester, Inc.

     The Administrator has voluntarily limited its fees with respect to the
Index Equity Fund. The Administrator has waived for the Institutional Shares and
Investment Shares of the Index Equity Fund $3,801 and $98,548 respectively, for
the six months ended June 30, 1996.

     Each Portfolio has adopted a distribution plan (the "Plans") on behalf of
the Investment Shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of
1940. The Plans provide for payments to 440 Financial Distributors, Inc. (the
"Distributor"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of First Data, of 0.25% of
the average daily net assets of the Investment Shares of the Portfolios.

     The Distributor acts as the exclusive distributor of the Trust's shares.
Prior to March 31, 1995 the Distributor was an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary
of State Mutual.

     Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of the current
Administrator and/or the Distributor. Such Trustee and officers receive no
compensation from the Trust for serving in their respective roles.

     Expenses for the Trust include legal fees paid to Drinker Biddle & Reath. A
partner of that firm serves as Secretary of the Trust.

     Bankers Trust Company acts as the Trust's custodian. Prior to October 25,
1995, the Trust's custodian was The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Chase Manhattan Corporation.

4.   CLASS LEVEL EXPENSES

     Each of the Portfolios has established two classes of shares, Investment
Shares and Institutional Shares. Each share in each Portfolio, regardless of
class, represents an equal pro rata interest in a Portfolio and has identical
voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, except in matters affecting only
a particular Portfolio or class in which case only shar es of the affected
Portfolio or class are entitled to vote. Each class may bear class specific
expenses. 

<TABLE>
     Class specific expenses, if any, are currently limited to expenses directly
attributable to the Investment Shares under the Plans, shareholder se rvices
fees and certain printing and postage expenses incurred as they relate to a
particular class of shares. Shareholder services fees were borne by each of the
Institutional and Investment Shares for each Portfolio for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 as follows:

Index Equity              22,927         883
</TABLE>

5.   SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

     The Trust's Declaration of Trust authorizes the Trustees to issue an
unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest without par value. It allows
for the creation of one or more classes of shares within each series, each of
which, regardless of class designation, represents an equal proportionate
interest in the Portfolios with each other share of that series. The Portfolios
may issue more than one series of shares investing in portfolios of securities.
The Trust currently issues thirteen series of shares with two separate classes
in each series, Investment Shares and Institutional Shares. Each class of shares
is entitled upon liquidation of the Portfolios to a pro rata share in the net
assets of the class of such series.

7.   FOREIGN SECURITIES

     The Growth and Income Fund and the International Growth Fund can purchase
securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers
involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of
U.S. issuers.

     The risks include devaluation of currencies and future adverse political
and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and
their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of
securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

8.   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     As approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust on May 31, 1996,
effective August 5, 1996, BISYS Fund Services Limited Partnership d/b/a BISYS
Fund Services ("BISYS") will assume the duties as administrator and distributor
for the Trust from FDISG and 440 Financial Distributors, Inc., respectively.
Also effective August 5, 1996, BISYS Fund Services, Inc. will assume the duties
as Fund Accountant to the Trust from FDISG. BISYS Fund Services, Inc. will
assume the duties of Transfer Agent from FDISG effective October 6, 1996.
