Month: August 2017

1st Semester

      

As a Mount Scholars member I was able to meet these great individuals my first few weeks of school, here at Ohio State. Although I have not been here long, having these friends to lean on during this transition has made all the difference. As classes start to pick up, and we all get into our own routines it is comforting to know that I can come back to these smiling faces every evening. Meeting my fellow mounties and getting to know each of them has truly made me feel like a member of the buckeye community. This short amount of time I have spent at Ohio State has proven that I did, in fact, find my home away from home and I can not wait to grow even closer with my peers in the years to come.
