Artifact #2

I usually do not outwardly represent the things I am involved in, but the Block O pin has been proudly displayed since it was given to me. The Block O pin was one of the first things I received the fist couple of days on campus. The pin is a subtle indication of the school, but it speaks volumes. At first it was just a pin that people around campus had. Then I participated in my first career expo, and the pin was proudly on the lapel of my jacket which showed employers how proud I am of the education I am recieving. Now, it’s back on my backpack and displayed on and off campus. I have been able to excel  at The Ohio State University becuase of the amazing experiences and people I have met so far. I proudly wear the Block O pin to let everyone know how much the university means to me.
