What does it mean to be a Buckeye:
Being a Buckeye is about community. It's about working across disciplines to build collaborative and transformative solutions and make a global impact. Buckeyes come together around a shared commitment to creating a better future, building networks, and uplifting one another. To be a Buckeye is to lead with purpose and grow through the community. I am proud to be part of such a large university community and am leaving Ohio State as a confident, well-rounded leader and Buckeye for life because of it.
