The mission of Honors & Scholars is for the students to get interact with the G.O.A.L.S. The G is for global awareness which allows an individual to get an understanding of other cultures and backgrounds. During my junior or senior year, I plan to study abroad for a semester in a foreign country. The O stands for ordinal inquiry which is when students will be engaging with research and projects with the university. My current Mol Gen class allows me to connect with the various faculty on campus performing research. The A stands for academic enrichment. The difficult classes at OSU will help contour the student to solve complex outside the classroom. The chemistry courses here at OSU will definitely prepare me for medical school. The L is for leadership which demonstrates that students will develop leadership skills in the classroom that they can apply to their communities. One way I plan to develop my leadership is to hold key membership positions in clubs and student organizations. Last, the S stands for service engagement. Performing service activities builds character and more importantly gives back to the community. I have been involved with campus wide clean-ups which is important for the environment.
