My name is Kevin Berghoff and I am a first year at The Ohio State University. I am from Cincinnati, OH, and am very interested in getting to know the Columbus area better. I went to Sycamore High School and was a member of the water polo and volleyball teams. I am going to continue playing water polo at school here. I hope to meet many new people and grow as a player and person over the next four years. While I am not doing any structured volleyball here, I am always interested in some recreational sand volleyball games.
I came to Ohio State to receive a higher education to help me acquire a job in the future. While my major is undecided, I think that by the end of the semester I will be confident enough in myself that I can say I know what I want to learn. I want to do something math based because numbers make the most sense to me. It feels good when you get the right answer or solve a problem, and I need satisfaction like that to stay interested.
Since childhood, I have always loved nature. I never had video games or watched tv; I preferred to climb trees and play in the backyard creek. I am excited about ENRS because it should help strengthen my love for the environment and show me new ways to appreciate nature. I hope that through this scholars program I can learn more about not only the environment, but about myself as well.
