OHIO First-Year Experience
Welcome to the OHIO First Year Experience website.
In academic year 2005-06, more than 75 faculty, staff, and students served on subcommittees corresponding to the dimensions that the Foundations of Excellence developed in collaboration with 319 four year colleges and universities. These dimensions represent an aspirational model of excellence for the first year against which every facet of the first year, from the initial contact with admissions through all curricular and co-curricular experiences, can be assessed toward the end of identifying actions that will effect institutional improvement.
Today, we continue to support and grow first-year programs and initiatives across campus. Programs and initiatives such as Learning Community Programs, LEAP, UC 115, Bobcat Student Orientation, Supplemental Instruction, and the Common Reading Project.

This First-Year Forum will focus on who our 2010 First-Year students are and provide information about select groups within the entering class, such as veteran, international, commuter, and multicultural students, as well as programs offered to them. We will also learn more about the Common Experience Project [Apocalypse: Bright Future/Dark Future] and how faculty, colleges, departments, and organizations can incorporate the readings, films, plays, and music of the Common Experience Project into their courses and programs.
Hosted by University College and the Russ College of Engineering and Technology, the Forum will meet in the Academic and Research Center [ARC], room 102.
