We really do see this as our family, that we guide our students over the next four years.

This will make them more prepared for science research in college. Having a mentorship experience is also going to make them more attractive college candidates.

Senior research is the cornerstone of the program.

I think students have made their choices already. People will most likely continue to play basketball in the east wing, and there will be an increase at CRCE. Those who wish to swim laps in pools will go to Freer or Kenney.

Students with disabilities are a part of the Ohio State family that we hadn't really catered to specifically in the past. People in wheelchairs are people, with problems and goals and body odor and attitudes like you and me.

We don't want students to be a burden on families. When (our family) hosted a student, we didn't feel an impact on our family budget.
