About Me

I’m Evan Grendys, a freshman in Green Engineering Scholars and a part of University Exploration with the goal of going into Chemical Engineering. I am from Pittsburgh, PA and am the only student from my school that chose to go to Ohio State, but I am excited to meet new people through my roommates and classes. In high school, I was very interested in science, particularly in chemistry and physics. Outside of class I ran Cross Country all four years of high school and also got involved in Relay for Life. I was also apart of clubs like National Honor Society, Science NHS, and a Mentor Team during my junior and senior years. This year I’m most excited to meet new people and experience college for the first time. I’m probably most nervous for the course load but am willing and excited to work with new people.

Year in Review

[ “Year in Review”  is where you should reflect on the past year and show how you have evolved as a person and as a student.  You may want to focus on your growth in a particular area (as a leader, scholar, researcher, etc.) or you may want to talk about your overall experience over the past year.  For more information, go to: http://honors-scholars.osu.edu/e-portfolio.
