I am thrilled to share with you that we have named Ross Bjork as senior vice president and Wolfe Foundation-Eugene Smith Endowed Athletics Director. His tenure as athletics director at Ohio State, pending approval by the Board of Trustees, will begin July 1, 2024.

I am thrilled to begin the spring semester as the 17th president of The Ohio State University. As I said in August, I have been driven throughout my career by a sense of service at the highest level — and Ohio State operates at the highest levels of academics, research, health care, the arts, athletics and more.
