Fitting with the football season, Ohio State Lima held a "Tailgate with the Buckeyes" open house to learn more about becoming a Buckeye. Students had a chance to tour the campus and hear from professors and current students. Informative sessions on student activities, resources, and specific programs were also presented. Regional campuses like OSU Lima offer smaller class sizes which make it easier to connect with classmates and instructors. Regardless of their major of choice, a regional campus like Lima can be a great starting point.

"A lot of our students at Ohio State start out as undecided. It gives them lots of freedom, lots of different pathways to complete whatever degree is they are interested in. Here at Ohio State Lima, you can start any of Ohio State's 200+ degrees. We also have a number of majors, 13 to be exact, that you can start and finish here on the Lima campus. So whatever pathway students want is wide open to them in terms of graduating as a Buckeye," stated Georgia Bass, director of student recruitment.
