What does it mean to be a Buckeye?
As a die-hard Buckeye football fan since birth, I had no choice but to love Ohio State. However, I later fell in love with the "Pay it Forward" value that permeates everything on campus. To be a Buckeye means to carry forward the time, energy, and commitments others have made in your success and to gift it to others. The Ohio State community is unique in its support of students and alumni all across the world, and every single Buckeye embodies the love for this school, its history, and its values.

Join me in providing students access to Ohio State's alternative break program, Buck-I-SERV.
