Voting is the keystone of our democracy. I am personally very excited to participate this year as part of the Ohio State community. Regardless of whom you support, let’s get out the vote, Buckeyes, and make each of our voices heard.

My college visits are a highlight of my first-year Buckeye experience. Learning from you where you study, teach, perform and practice is enlightening. I am particularly interested to see our university’s founding land-grant mission in action — whether through teaching and learning, convergent research and scholarship, or outreach and engagement efforts.

We continue to mourn the tragic loss of Chase Meola, a student and dedicated friend to so many on our campus and in our community. His family, friends and loved ones came together on Saturday to celebrate his life and honor his memory. As Buckeyes, we will continue to come together during this difficult time, offering each other support and being here for one another. It’s the example Chase left for us, and we will honor it.
