As a student at Ohio State I have done multiple things with my time here that have fulfilled the Honors & Scholars G.O.A.L.S. The first thing that I would include is what I am currently studying. This fits in best with Academic Enrichment. I am finding out what I like and don’t like in the classroom and through this I have been better figuring out what career path I want to go into when I graduate.
I have also been interacting with Leadership Development and Service Engagement through my volunteering at the Broad Street After-school program. I am volunteering at this program for my scholar’s program Mount Leadership Society as well as the Leadership and Community Service class I am currently taking. At this afterschool program I am working with children ages 5 to around 15 and I am helping them with both schoolwork and learning to be more well-rounded in life. Through this I am learning how to be a good role model for kids who look up to me as an adult as well as how to make sure I am bettering my community and helping those who are going to be the future of both our community and our country.
I think that Ohio State, as well as my scholars’ program specifically, as helped me to find a way to get more involved with my community and find things that both interest me and help better those around me. I am excited to see what else I can gain from the rest of my time at Ohio State.
