What does it mean to be a Buckeye:
Being a Buckeye is about fostering community through tradition, solidarity, and trailblazing. It is about advocating for equity, so everyone has the ability to create their own Buckeye experience that shares a common understanding of respect, love, and forward progress. It is about never forgetting where you came from and continually uplifting and supporting those who are now in the shoes you occupied years ago. Finding ways to provide access to the opportunities and future people seek for themselves is the Buckeye Spirit. Being a Buckeye is ultimately about doing something big for something or someone bigger than yourself.
