BOBCAT BEACONS OF EXCELLENCE

FROM PRESIDENT HUGH SHERMAN

Ohio University has been awarded the Higher Education Excellence in Diversity Award for a fifth consecutive year. The HEED Award recognizes OHIO for its continued effort to refocus its core strategic priorities to ensure access, inclusion and success. Now in its eleventh year, the HEED Award is the only national award honoring U.S. colleges and universities that demonstrate an outstanding commitment to diversity and inclusion.

There’s a new way to experience campus. Bobcat Nation can now walk the bricks of OHIO through “The College Tour,” a television series highlighting colleges and universities around the world. Available at ohio.edu/college-tour or on Amazon Prime, the 30-minute episode showcases life at OHIO through the lens of 10 involved and successful Bobcats.

Students build their own stories through experiential learning At Ohio University, education reaches far beyond traditional classroom walls. From local waterways to the halls of Congress and international consulting trips, OHIO students are rolling up their sleeves to gain real-world skills and stand out as emerging professionals.

Last year, OHIO was among the first in the nation to be designated a Collegiate Purple Star campus because of its long-standing support of military personnel. Additionally, several of Ohio University’s online programs were ranked top in the state for veterans in the latest U.S. News & World Report list of “Best Online Programs.” For veterans, the online master’s in nursing, the online master’s in business programs (non-MBA) and the online master’s in education programs were ranked best in the state.
