Ohio is among the fastest-aging states in the nation, requiring innovative new approaches to conditions like dementia, mobility loss and chronic illness. Our new Institute on Aging will build on Ohio State’s scientific and community engagement strengths and position us to meet the needs of our changing population. news.osu.edu/ohio-state-est…

This is a great partnership between our university, @ColsCitySchools, @IKnowICan88 and @Battelle that’s showing young people what’s possible for their futures and helping to build a strong workforce pipeline for our state. We loved welcoming so many high schoolers to our Columbus and Newark campuses for hands-on career prep activities – I hope to see them again soon! news.osu.edu/ohio-state-tea…

A blood cancer can be a devastating diagnosis, but thanks to world-leading expertise at @OSUCCC_James, we’re working to be able to deliver the best treatment to every individual patient, every time. In this new “Pass the Mic,” Dr. Ann-Kathrin Eisfeld talks about how she and her colleagues are staying on the cutting edge in researching and treating rare leukemias and other blood disorders – and ultimately creating hope for patients and their loved ones.

Most of us can remember someone showing up for us when we needed it most. The PALS program, which has contributed 540 mentoring hours over the past five years, is making a real difference in the lives of young people in Marion. @OSUMarion

Lalita and I (with an appearance by our goldendoodle, CJ!) were so pleased to talk with @OhioStateAlumni about our Buckeye journey and why we’re so excited about the future. This is an amazing community of scholars willing to give ourselves the gift of high expectations – because Ohio State can, and will, be a top-ranked, consequential university that creates impact in our state and beyond. Thanks for the conversation!

Congratulations to our @osu_pharmacy students and graduates, who have earned a postgraduate year 1 residency match rate of over 96 percent – their highest in years and well above the national average. This is a strong sign of the breadth of opportunities Buckeye graduates are pursuing and their readiness to serve and excel in clinical settings. pharmacy.osu.edu/news/ohio-stat…

On Friday I had the great pleasure of joining colleagues and friends for our annual University Staff Advisory Committee recognition breakfast. Our staff are on the front lines every day as we deliver on our teaching, research and clinical care missions, and they play a vital role in our pursuit of excellence. Special thanks to the USAC members who have completed their terms, including outgoing chair Alice Gaughan, and welcome to our new committee members. I'm excited to work together as we move Ohio State forward as a consequential university with impact in our state and beyond!

I’ve had the great pleasure of working closely with Dean Howard since I joined Ohio State last year, and this is a wonderful and well -earned new opportunity. We will miss her, but the strong momentum she has built at the College of Engineering will continue. The students, faculty and staff at @SpelmanCollege are in good hands under her leadership. Congratulations, Ayanna! news.osu.edu/college-of-eng…

Today was the final Board meeting for two of our distinguished trustees: Chairman John Zeiger, along with our graduate/professional student representative, Kendall Buchan. I’m deeply grateful to Trustee Zeiger for being a strong voice for academic excellence, and to Trustee Buchan for capably representing Buckeye students. They will be missed, but we know they will continue to serve the Ohio State and broader communities.
