REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCES
Cooperative education pairs students with employers so they can learn hands-on in their field of study, and the University of Cincinnati offers one of the largest of such programs.
BY CHLOE ROBERTSON
Taking in the tall ceilings and sophisticatedly decorated lobby, Gabriella Abell was all nerves as she walked through the doors of Stengel Hill Architecture in Louisville, Kentucky. But her mind was soon set at ease by friendly smiles from coworkers and the realization that she was taking the first steps toward her interior-design career.
“In the moment, I was extremely nervous,” recalls Abell, now a fifth-year interior design major at the University of Cincinnati. “It made me feel a lot better that there were two other UC students there interning at the same time.”
This long-awaited first day of work was made possible by the University of Cincinnati’s cooperative-education program, which offers students real-world work experience in a variety of fields. It was a first day preceded by resume creation, interviews and support from Abell’s instructors at the university’s College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning.
UC offers one of the largest co-op programs in the world, working with thousands of employers and catering to the 1,000-plus students who complete co-ops each academic year. UC was ranked in the top five best places for co-ops and internships in the United States by U.S. News & World Report’s Best Colleges 2023. For over a century, UC has been extending the learning experience beyond the classroom for students pursuing fields that include engineering, science, design, architecture, art, business, technology and more.
“It gives the students a real opportunity to apply what they’re learning in the classroom,” says Annie Straka, Associate Professor and Associate Dean in UC’s College of Cooperative Education and Professional Studies. “I think it’s a really dynamic experience to take classes and then go work in the workforce and then return to classes.”
Civil engineering professor, Herman Schneider launched the cooperative-education program at UC in 1906. Those ear-
ly days of the co-op program involved 13 local companies and 27 engineering students. It was the beginning of a program that has greatly expanded since then but still aims to achieve its original goal of bridging the gap between classroom and field knowledge.
“I think that UC has a tremendous history that allows for a tremendous amount of infrastructure to ... support both students and employers,” Straka says. “It’s in the blood of everything that we do.”
Abell exemplifies the success UC helps its students to achieve. Having completed five co-ops, Abell says she has learned a lot about herself and her career field with each experience. The co-ops place Abell in the decision-making rooms at Stengel Hill Architecture, allowing her to see what it is like to be a designer in action
“It was such an amazing experience,” Abell says. “Getting to network with the designers, representatives and sales reps. ... Now I have those contacts.”
UC’s co-op program for interior design laid the foundation for Abell’s career, helping her navigate the industry and ultimately find her place within it. Before her coops, Abell was unsure what outlet of design she wanted to make her focus. Now she knows she wants to work with set and production design for television and movies.
“[It] laid a lot of groundwork for who I ended up becoming, and it made me realize which parts of design I’m more interested in,” she says.
UC works with over 1,300 companies in 44 states and 22 countries, offering students a chance to work with a diverse range of businesses. Any student pursuing a degree at UC has the option to experience on-site work via a co-op. For such majors as business, architecture, design, engineering and information technology, a co-op program is required for graduation. For others, co-ops are offered as an option to gain more hands-on experience.
Co-ops are more than just a bonus at UC; they sit at the core of the institution, according to Straka.
“I think we have up to 25 co-op tracks that are in the College of Arts and Sciences now,” she says. “So, we are really trying
to focus on how we can make experiences in the workplace more accessible to students who are in degree programs where that’s not always been the tradition.”
During the 2023-2024 academic year, UC students completed more than 8,300 paid co-op experiences, earning over $88.8 million. University of Cincinnati President Neville Pinto is working on a strategic plan, Co-op 2.0, which works to expand the co-op programs into the rest of the university.
“The core focus was to create opportunities for all students at the university to pursue a paid experience that would support them in their careers,” Straka says.
UC takes pride in its dedication to making sure students are prepared to use their education outside of the classroom. The co-op program is constantly evolving to ensure each student has the same opportunity for success after college.
“I think everyone walks away feeling like it has benefited their careers and their professional goals,” Abell says.

FINANCIAL FOCUS
For students considering any form of postsecondary education, The Free Application for Federal Student Aid, commonly referred to as the FAFSA, can help offset some of the costs associated with higher education. The form is free to complete and helps students check their eligibility for financial aid from the federal government, the state and individual institutions.
The FAFSA form for the 2025-2026 school year opened in November, but the federal deadline to submit is not until June 30, 2026. Other deadlines for state-specific grants or scholarships can vary by state or institution.
Tamika Braswell, Director of the Office of Financial Aid at the Ohio Department of Higher Education, says the form essentially provides “free money” for students, in addition to providing access to federal grants, work-study programs and student loans, as well as institutional and state aid.
“It could be the difference between a student going to college or not going to college,” says Jeff Robinson, Director of Communications at the Ohio Department of Higher Education. “Choosing to pursue that or not based on the help they get.”
It works by reviewing income and tax information from the IRS to determine eligibility. Students who are considered
For students looking to determine how best to pay for their postsecondary education, filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid is essential. Here’s what you need to know.

“dependent” will need to have a parent or guardian help fill out the form with their tax information.
“The biggest challenge students are facing is really when a parent doesn’t want to assist with the FAFSA completion,” says Carlos Bing, Senior Director of College Access Programs and GEAR UP at the Ohio Department of Higher Education. “So just trying to convince a parent to support that student in the completion of the FAFSA is critical. That can happen from school counselors, other stakeholders [and] advisors who can help explain to parents why completion of the form is so important.”
Last year, the form hit a few snags during the rollout process, causing some students to experience delays in finding out the status of their financial aid.
“We were told that for this upcoming release, all of those kinks have been worked out,” Braswell says.
To help the process go as smoothly as possible, one of the best things students can do is create their FAFSA ID before beginning. Additionally, students must pare down their list of potential higher education institutions to 20 to meet the FAFSA criteria.
The 2025-2026 FAFSA form will be the same as the 2024-2025 form, which streamlined the process, so students will have an easier time filling it out.
The initial proposal for updating the FAFSA form brought the number of questions from 100 down to 30 or 40, Bing says. This year’s form contains more questions than that, but as Bing points out, “It has skip logic, so you don’t have to go through everything like you did before.”
Because the form automatically pulls tax information from the IRS, the process should take around 30 minutes from start to finish, Bing notes.
“Even if a child or young person isn’t sure about whether they want to go to postsecondary education, it doesn’t hurt to complete the form,” he says. “It’s absolutely free.”

Bowling Green State University’s innovative Life Design program aims to help students become creative problem solvers with a sense of purpose.
BY CHRISTINE SCHAFFRAN
Developing a roadmap for life at 18 years old that allows for little deviation seems like an unrealistic and daunting task for the average teenager with minimal life ex perience. Yet every year, more than 2.3 million high school graduates leave their homes and venture to college cam puses across the country to begin a career path predetermined by little more than what they think they are good at or what they think they like.
In a bold move meant to help underclassmen, Bowling Green State University has turned to Life Design — an initiative aimed at not only helping to chart a path toward creating a fulfilling career, but also finding a life direction that brings joy, stimulation and the ability to pivot when circumstances insist on it. The challenge: Pick three career choices and map out your destiny with a realistic choice, a secondary option and a “wild-card dream job” if money were no object. But that’s just the beginning.
In a November 2022 Mary Christie Institute study of 1,005 adults between the ages of 22 and 28 who had earned at least a bachelor’s degree, nearly 40% responded that “college did not help them develop skills to prepare them for the emotion al or behavioral impact of the transition to the workplace.” BGSU is seizing the opportunity to confront this challenge with Life Design.
Created by Stanford University professors William Burnett and David Evans, the program has been introduced on more than 400 college campuses across the United States, but no other institution has embraced it as wholeheartedly as BGSU. Life Design goes beyond the career-center setting and typical academic advisor that traditionally guides conversations with upperclassmen about how to proceed after graduation.
With this program, life coaches have been injecting themselves into the process during orientation or the first semester at BGSU since 2020. Together, coach and student project a path that is not just logical and financially driven but puts the power in the hands of the student to identify what goals are most important to achieve in his or her life and implement a plan to accomplish them. It begins with an Odyssey journey and ends with prototypes that test each path. In between, students are encouraged to, as the program’s co-founder Burnett likes to say, “get out into the world and try stuff.”
THE INSPIRATION
It all began with a problem. Undergraduate students in Adjunct Professor William Burnett’s design theory classes at Stanford University began lamenting over how to launch their careers after graduating. So, Burnett teamed up with Dave Evans, a lecturer at the University of California Berkeley, to create a class called Designing Your Life.
“It seemed like figuring out your future was just a design problem because the future is uncertain, and designers make stuff all the time that is brand new to the world. It’s never been done before — just like your life in the future,” Burnett explains. “So, we applied all the same human-centered design thinking principles to life, and it turned out to be a really good fit. The students really loved it.”
The class was so well received that it prompted a book, Designing Your Life: How to Build a Well-Lived, Joyful Life. And when the calls began coming from other universities that wanted to offer the class shortly after the book launched in 2016, the duo created a “transfer studio” to teach the curriculum. The five-day training session offers an introductory session on design theory and provides all the concepts that students need to create their own successful life toolkit.
“It’s like a giant Lego kit,” Burnett marvels. “You can build anything with it.”
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
ADRIENNE AUSDENMOORE,
OF THE RADBILL CENTER FOR COLLEGE AND LIFE DESIGN
That book caught the eye of BGSU President Rodney Rogers while he was walking through Los Angeles International Airport. At the time, Rogers was already grappling with an issue of his own: how to be more intentional in helping students optimize their time in college.
“[This] was a framework that we could use so students have a roadmap on how to go to college, maximize their experience and prepare them for career success, as well as find meaning in life,” Rogers explains.
Convinced he had found the antidote to a lackluster college experience, Rogers invited Burnett and his team to BGSU in early 2020 to train more than 70 faculty and staff members on the fundamentals of Life Design, such as collaborating, taking action, being curious and embracing the process.
“President Rogers called us up and said, ‘Hey, I want to run this at our school. I think it’d be really impactful for our demographic of students.’ And I said, ‘You should come to a studio.’ And he said, ‘No, I really want to go big on this. I want you to come and train us,’” Burnett recalls.
THE PROGRAM
on campus,” says Adrienne Ausdenmoore, executive vice president and executive director of the Radbill Center for College and Life Design at BGSU. “And then they would have a Life Design coach that they could continue to connect with throughout their BGSU experience.”
Like other universities, BGSU created a one-credit introduction to the Life Design methodology titled BGSU 1910: Life Design at BGSU.
“The idea was that they would get introduced to the concepts of Life Design and … to the resources and opportunities
When the program launched in the fall of 2020, six Life Design coaches were on hand to teach and coach the 600 freshmen enrolled in the inaugural course.
One of the first things students are asked to do is to design three different Odyssey plans — each with an anticipated tra-
jectory on how life would look five to 10 years down the road if the student selected each path. Trial runs called “prototypes” allow opportunities to “try on” jobs and decide whether to pursue and invest more time in them. These trials also call for conversations with those already involved in a particular profession and encourage internships, shadowing and volunteering to become immersed in the field. Along the way, students are asked to create a dashboard to track progress, set goals and reflect on whether each path is as fulfilling as the student anticipated.
As the program gained momentum at BGSU, two donors took notice and stepped forward to give the initiative not one but two physical homes on campus: the Geoffrey H. Radbill Center for College and Life Design and the Michael and Sara Kuhlin Hub for Career Design and Connections.
“With the two gifts in 2022, the idea was ‘How do we make this an ecosystem on campus, so it’s not just one office?’” Ausdenmoore explains.
As the Radbill Center settled into its new home on the third floor of McLeod Hall, the Bowen-Thompson Student Union took on a new life as the Kuhlin Hub. While the Radbill Center provides a collaborative space for students to work with Life Design coaches, the Kuhlin Hub focuses on providing the skills and resources students need to make connections in their desired fields.
“We want to be known for Life Design, but I think, more broadly, BGSU might be known as being a university that’s leading the path on justifying higher education,” notes Steve Russell, assistant vice president and executive director of the Kuhlin Hub.
With 75% of first-year students formally introduced to the Life Design experience, Ausdenmoore says the goal is 100% involvement of incoming first-year students in the 2024-25 school year.
“Our ultimate goal is that BGSU is graduating students that are innovative problem solvers with a sense of purpose and intentionality that are highly desired in any industry,” she says.
THE EXPERIENCE
Before Devin Darr ever set foot on campus, he had an ally helping him achieve success. The first-generation college student’s Life Design coach reached out to him before the start of his first semester.
“My Life Design coach just wanted to get to know me and answer any questions I had. She wanted to learn my story, where I was coming from, what my thoughts and fears were,” says the fourth-year student with a major in physics and a minor in astronomy. “And she helped me get connected with other resources, which vastly improved my understanding of what my first semester would be like in college.”
Meanwhile, Ella Dedes arrived as an “undecided” major and did not take the introductory Life Design seminar. Instead, she was introduced to the program via a roommate who already seemingly had her life all mapped out. As it turned out, her roommate had a Life Design coach.
“I reached out to her life coach, and I told her, ‘Just tell me what to do, and I’ll rock it,’” recalls the senior. “So, she worked with me one-on-one and made it very targeted for my life and what I wanted to get out of it. She was able to help me realize that I can do hard things.”
In addition to majoring in communication sciences and disorders to pursue a career in speech therapy, Dedes is president of her sorority and the National Student Speech Language and Hearing Association as well as a member of the American Sign Language Club and the Order of Omega — Greek life’s equivalent to the National Honor Society.
Today, Darr and Dedes serve as senior Life Design student ambassadors who work alongside the students in the program by helping plan activities and building community among peers.
“We help lead the discussions of the curriculum and really help to connect the dots between all of the steps of the [Life Design] thinking process,” Darr explains.
Dedes says no matter what path students take, the decision to include Life Design in that process is a crucial step.
“I definitely would say that Life Design was the reason that I had the push to get involved because I didn’t know where to start,” she admits. “The first step is always the scariest, and Life Design helped me take that first step.”

INSPIRING JOURNEY
Nife Enis overcame self-doubt to reach her goal of becoming a Licensed Practical Nurse. Today, she returns to the Apollo Career Center in Lima to help encourage others. BY
OLIVIA MONTGOMERY
While speaking to 20-year-old Nife Enis, you’d never guess that she was once plagued with overwhelming self-doubt and stress that clouded her journey to becoming a nurse. Despite hours of practical, hands-on experience, Enis often found herself questioning whether she would be able to finish school or if she was qualified to be in the program in the first place. ››
Her age amplified that uncertainty even more. One of her instructors mentioned that Enis and her peers were some of the youngest people she had ever taught, a comment that constantly played in the back of Enis’ mind. Overcoming this self-doubt was not easy, but Enis says a mix of prayer, venting and family support kept her going.
“[What helped was] knowing that it’s okay to vent and cry sometimes,” she explains. “I also had a good support system to always say, ‘You got it,’ ‘You’re smart,’ ‘Just keep going.’”
Enis’ experience is not unique by any means, especially for students like her who are enrolled in high school and their local career center at the same time. Born and raised in Lima, Ohio, Enis attended Lima Central Catholic for high school, a time during which she was dually enrolled at Lima’s Apollo Career Center. Enis was motivated to continue her nursing education following her high school graduation, which led to her transfer into Apollo Career Center’s adult-education program.
“It was very rigorous,” Enis says. “It was very demanding. There is a lot to do, because you have tests every week, you have homework, you have clinicals and then clinical homework, all these things.”
Enis graduated from Apollo Career Center in 2023 as a Licensed Practical Nurse, and she now frequently returns to her alma mater to encourage the health-science students who now occupy the seats she once did. Enis shares her story and strategies she employed to help her achieve success. For one, she learned that keeping organized with schoolwork during the week allowed her to set aside a full day for herself each weekend, which helped her strike a balance between a busy school schedule and taking care of herself.
“On the weekend, whether it be a Saturday or a Sunday, I would just put everything away and find time to do something that I like to do,” Enis says. “Whether it be watching a movie, going shopping or talking on the phone with friends. Just something to get me away from it for a moment.”
Apollo Career Center offers more than 30 programs, including both part-time classwork and full-time programs. The school offers both training and certifications for students looking to take that next step in their education. As she delved into the nursing program at Apollo Career Center, Enis began tackling more hands-on work and gaining real-world experience.
“We had clinicals all year,” Enis says. “They would take us to nursing homes and hospitals, and we would [practice] so many different skills. We would do hands-on care. We went to the ER. We went to the labor and delivery unit.”
The clinicals were particularly nerve-racking as Enis recalls feeling unsure about whether they would ease her into it or if they would jump right into practice. Everything worked out as she began gaining confidence administering IVs and medications to patients, just two of the many skills she developed through these experiences.
Enis’s nursing-school peers, many of whom were her friends from Lima Central Catholic, also worked together to uplift one another when they felt overwhelmed and discouraged. The instructors offered encouragement as well. Enis recalls one of her teachers saying, “With the amount of time you spend wondering if you can do it, you could’ve done it already.”
Setting realistic goals about attendance and grades also helped Enis when feelings of doubt crept in. Her mother played a pivotal role as a support system and source of motivation to keep going when the coursework turned difficult.
Nife Enis attends Rhodes State College in Lima, where she started classes to become a Registered Nurse in January.
“My mom is also a nurse, and I’ve just seen what she’s done and how much she enjoyed her job,” Enis says. “People would always come up and say, ‘Oh yeah, I know your mom. She was so nice to me.’ That gave me some inspiration. I want to make a difference like that too.”
Enis remembers a shift during her second semester of nursing school, when things started to click into place.
“I found I had more confidence in my test taking, and I was getting better grades,” she says. “So that’s when I was like, ‘Okay, you got the hang of this. Just keep going.’”
Today, Enis works as an LPN at Springview Manor, an assisted-living facility for seniors in Lima, and attends Rhodes State College in Lima, where she will be starting classes to become a Registered Nurse in January 2025. The field experience Enis received through Apollo Career Center, which took her to a multitude of different locations throughout the area, helped her feel prepared when it came time to look for a job after graduation.
“As an LPN now, I feel like my job is definitely hard work but very rewarding,” Enis says.
She plans to graduate from Rhodes in summer 2026 and hopes to eventually work as a nurse practitioner in pediatrics.
When Enis returns to Apollo Career Center to speak to current students, she shares with them that the coursework can feel challenging, and that is a normal part of the learning process.
“In the beginning, it’ll feel like a lot. It’ll feel like none of this is clicking or making sense, but it will,” Enis says. “[I tell them,] ‘You guys probably don’t really know each other well right now, but you will, and you guys being there for each other makes such a huge difference.’ … ‘Know that the teachers really do have your best interest at heart and that they’re doing these things so that you know what to do when you go to work.’”

It’s always been easier for me to help others than to help myself
As a Veteran, when someone raises their hand for help, you’re often one of the first ones to respond. But it’s also okay to get help for yourself. Maybe you want or need assistance with employment, stress, finances, mental health or finding the right resources. No matter what it is, you earned it. And there’s no better time than right now to ask for it. Don’t wait. Reach out.
