Aug. 19, 2015Dear Bobcats,Welcome! What an exciting time as we commence a new academic year!It seems like just yesterday that I was in your shoes. I can vividly remember my parents pulling away from Lincoln Hall on that first day of my freshman year and wondering what my future at Ohio University would hold.On that day, staring out of my residence hall window, I could have never imagined the opportunities that would unfold, the lifelong friendships that would take root, the faculty mentors who would inspire my course or the ways in which an Ohio University education would expand my understanding of the world around me.In the weeks and months ahead, you will hear us talk about OHIO as a place of transformation. And it’s true — opportunities abound at every turn. But it’s up to you to seize those opportunities. To engage with your professors. To connect deeply with your peers. To immerse yourself in the community. To soak up knowledge. To devote yourself to a cause.Depending on your vantage point, the road ahead may look long. Trust me — it’s not. Ask any alum and they will tell you: These years will fly by in the blink of an eye. Make them count. In doing so, you will open yourself up to the greatest gifts that Ohio University offers — transformation and a degree!Here’s to a great year!Roderick McDavis is the president of Ohio University. If you have any questions or concerns, you can reach out to him on Twitter @OHIOPrezOffice.
