Below, I go over how I am currently reaching each of the G.O.A.L.S. of Honors and Scholars.

Global Awareness

To increase my global awareness, I try to learn about both world events and different cultures. I keep up with world news by reading articles, especially those that deal with supply chain. If I want to work with global supply chains, I need to have global awareness of the business and tech worlds. For culture, the biggest part this year was my international roommate. It was really cool learning about the culture of China and participating in events like the Mid-Autumn festival and Chinese New Year. Our differences are what makes us special, and I believe we should share and celebrate them. Before I graduate, I want to participate in a study abroad program.

Original Inquiry

This is my weakest area of the G.O.A.L.S. In my last years of college, I would like to participate in honors research. Before I do that, I need to take some important classes that will give me the base knowledge needed. If I want to research in Operations Management, I must take the intro to Operations Management class.

Academic Enrichment

I pursue academic enrichment by always taking a rigorous and full schedule. I came to Ohio State with all of the GE classes done, and I could have decided to only take 12 credit hours a semester.Instead, I decided to add English as my double major and will continue to push my self, taking difficult classes close to max credit hours each semester.

Leadership Development

In my first year of college, I focused on self-leadership and learning to work on a team. Many of my classes were based around working on a team to finish a project much bigger than a single person could do. I worked hard on keeping my own promises and responsibilities and learning how to trust others to do their job as best they can. Every person here at Ohio State wants to do their best, so this is the best time to work on these skills.

Service Engagement

For service engagement, I participated in FisherCares, a service organization through Fisher College of Business. I went to many of their in-house service events, such as blanket making. It was great to be able to help people, even from here on campus. As an H&S student, it is important to give back to those around us,to thank the people who have worked so hard to make us into the people we are today.
