OHIO Stories
“I really wanted to go into something meaningful. Sustainability was something I’ve always been big on. It’s constantly becoming a bigger and bigger issue. I want to learn how I can help, and I’m excited that I can do that as part of my major.”

“I sat in on some classes, met some faculty who were doing wonderful things, and said this is home, a place for me to grow and to become a new person. I said I’m going to Ohio University to study acting, and here I am.”
