Artifacts

 

An item that is representative of my academic and social growth at college is the Blackburn lobby and kitchen. Last semester, our business scholars’ family held a friends-giving in the blackburn kitchen that we as students planned and just enjoyed each other’s company. In addition, the lobby is the place where I study the most and can always pop by to take a break and chat. In the lobby, I see familiar faces and talk to people I do not necessarily see every day. The lobby is also where my small group meets where I take a break from the focused studying. This place represents many different things for me, and it provides different experiences for me every-time I sit at a table to study or take a break. I have met new people here, connected with old friends, and achieved academic success with the countless hours I spend here.

About Me

 

My name is Jillian Kemper, and I am a first-year student at The Ohio State University. I am a Business Scholar studying Operations Management with a minor in Leadership Studies. In my time here, I am interested in becoming DICE certified, traveling abroad to aid a non-profit,  and attending all of the football games. I have many goals I would like to pursue in my four years here, but specifically, I would like to join an honors cohort/program and complete the Dean’s Leadership Academy. So far on campus, I have gotten involved in the Undergraduate Business Women’s Association, Business Scholars Leadership Council, Honors and Scholars Ambassadors, College Mentors for Kids, and the Undergraduate Student Government. All of these involvements have grown me immensely as a student and have shown me true leadership and commitment. I came from a school with a graduating class of thirty people, and all of these involvements have truly helped my transition. On a typical day on campus, you might find me at KSA cafe with my roommate enjoying iced mochas and bagel sandwiches.
