Speaker 1:
I chose the College of Education and Human Ecology because of all of the experiences they had
to offer for me as a student.
Not only the resources but the very well-known faculty nationally and internationally as well.
The moment I realized I could attend Ohio State and I would have enough funds to do so was amazing.
I was jumping around the house. My mom was jumping around the house. I think I saw my grandma clear a few inches off the floor at one point.
We were just all so excited.
The support from the scholarships have allowed me to be more of a student at Ohio State while still being a full-time student teacher.
I have the time to enjoy Ohio State while I'm still here.
Receiving a scholarship means a lot.
It gives me opportunities that at one point I would just hope for and now those realities have been coming true.
Receiving a scholarship has just meant the world to me because I get to experience such a high level of diversity and a large experience that I never would've gotten otherwise.
People like you are the reason why a lot of students strive. Thank you very much.
