Pat Finn is a mentor for a group of the first year cohorts in the Politics, Society, and Law Scholars Program. Pat is a third year at The Ohio State University, majoring in Political Science with a minor in History. He plans on joining the army after graduation in hopes of becoming a JAG attorney. Pat is actually from New York and decided that he wanted to go to Ohio State because he wanted the big school atmosphere. Most of the schools in New York were small and the opportunity seemed right when he got an ROTC scholarship. Pat chose PSL Scholars because he is interested in government and civics, as well as law. He believes that PSL helped him receive an internship in New York City in the Prosecutor’s Office this past summer. Pat has enjoyed taking classes at OSU such as History of the Constitution in American Society as well as a WWII History class. His favorite places to eat around campus are Adriatico’s and Five Guys. Pat’s favorite movies are A Few Good Men, Good Will Hunting, and The Dark Knight. His favorite actor is Matt Damon and if he could be anyone for a day, it would be Justin Timberlake because he’s talented, handsome, and rich.
