Hi! My name is Megan Haggerty. I am currently a freshman at The Ohio State University. I am from a city about 20 minutes north of Dayton, OH. I enjoy driving around with my friends, watching movies, or drinking coffee (even if it is much too late for caffeine). I hope to take on a career in politics where I can push for legislation that helps others in need.
I am currently a student at the John Glenn College of Public Affairs. I am enrolled for the B.A. in Public Management, Leadership, and Policy. I have always been interested in being a leader, but I never could decide between a major in business administration or political science. While the government has always interested me, I was worried about becoming a political that might not work toward helping the majority of citizens. However, with the degree program created by the John Glenn college, I felt like I would be able to combine my interests toward achieving my goal of advocacy and giving back to different communities.
There are many programs that I hope to take part in through the Public Policy Program. Hopefully, I will be able to take part in the Washington D.C. internship program to be able and work alongside influential politicians directly in Washington. As of right now, I’m unsure of what all I can accomplish, but I hope to keep working towards helping those around me.
