LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Dear readers,

Here at The Lantern, we are excited to welcome you to the Ohio State community. Whether you’re a lifetime fan of our football or just a recent fan of the in-state tuition rate, we hope the start to your college experience is as smooth as possible.

It’s both an exciting and overwhelming time. On the campus desk, our goal is to make accessing information and understanding decisions being made in and around the university a bit easier. We hope this edition can fll in where the rest of your Ohio State family cannot by sharing resources available to you, the dining plan that fts best with your time in dorms and why there may not be a president at this year’s Convocation.

Nearly all the cliches about college are true, and we hope you live all the good ones and manage your way through the bad ones. From one anxious student to another, don’t let every decision get you down or let others think they’re any more prepared than you. I’ll repeat the advice of many others to prioritize the people and things most important to you and don’t try to be everything at once. While I may be up on campus news, don’t ask me who our quarterback is — we’re all here to help each other, learn from each other and hopefully do some good along the way.

There are always things to do and people to meet on campus, so get involved. Even if that doesn’t mean writing for us, don’t hesitate to share stories we might be missing and stay up to date on the ones we fnd.

I wish the best for each of you, and see you on our website!

Sincerely,
