Welcome to Ohio State, Nicole!

Nicole is a recent graduate of North Union High School and will study agriscience education this fall.

When asked why she chose her major, she said “I chose agriscience education because my agricultural education classes changed my life so much. I don’t think I would be the same person without it. And I want to change someone’s life like it did me.”

Welcome to Ohio State, Christie!

Welcome to the Buckeye family Morgan!

Morgan will major in agriscience education this fall.

When asked why she chose to major in agriscience education, she said “I chose my major because I’ve always wanted to be a teacher, but I could never decide what subject to teach until I joined FFA. I decided that this is the best option because it’s something I’m passionate about and always reminds me of my agricultural background and my roots.”

Welcome to the Buckeye family, Micayla!

Micayla is a recent graduate of Western Reserve Schools and will attend Ohio State ATI in the fall majoring in agriscience education.
When asked about why she selected her major, she said “I chose agriscience education because I love working with others and communicating. I chose agriculture as my subject to teach because growing up in a rural community, I realized that it is the most important subject that everyone should have the chance to learn more about. I chose to be in the high school setting because the younger generations are the ones who need to have the most attention. I believe that involvement at the younger ages has an influence on the choices they will make. With my involvement in the FFA, it has led me to fall in love with a future I would love to wake up to in the morning.”

Micayla is excited to be a Buckeye in the fall because of the experiences and friendships in her future.

Welcome to Ohio State, Brenna!

Brenna is a recent graduate of Arcanum High School and will study agriscience education at the Columbus campus this fall.

“I chose agriscience education because I always wanted a career in agriculture, but had a hard time figuring out what to focus on. I was initially an animal science major, with a interest in swine nutrition. I switched to agriscience education because of my opportunity to participate in FFA for the first time (Arcanum just revived their chapter this year).”

Brenna continued, “I knew that I wanted to continue a path in agriculture, but also wanted to take what my years in 4-H and my year in FFA has taught me and use it to help teach students like myself, and hopefully make a lasting impact on their lives.”
