Another goal that I have set up for myself to achieve during my time at Ohio State is to further develop my leadership skills. In high school, I took part in many leadership opportunities. Whether it’s being the president of my high school’s orchestra or upholding an officer position of student organizations, I wanted to make an impact on others and to help influence positive change within society.
G.O.A.L.S.
The University Honors & Scholars Center at The Ohio State University serves high-ability, motivated undergraduate students. While embracing diversity in both ideas and people, the Center fosters purposeful learning communities that enhance students’ academic and social experiences. The Center facilitates impactful, rigorous, and unique opportunities that further student success and involvement in our G.O.A.L.S.: Global Awareness, Original Inquiry, Academic Enrichment, Leadership Development, and Service Engagement.
Global Awareness
One planned activity that I have set up in the long term future is global awareness. Because I grew up in a predominately white area of Ohio, I felt that I’ve lost touch with my culture and I feel that I still have many things to explore. Since coming to Ohio State, I have encountered many people from many upbringings and backgrounds that I have yet to hear about. During my time here at Ohio State, I want to continue to become more aware of the different types of cultures around me since I feel that I can learn more about the world and more about myself as a result.
