Student Involvement, Every Step of the Way
From initial focus groups and survey feedback in Spring 2023, to student summer internship opportunities, collaboration with student leader groups, engagement and feedback sessions, 和更多的, student involvement has been critical to the planning process.
突破
4月22日, 2024, a significant milestone was achieved as we officially commenced phase two of the 房屋总体规划. It was a momentous occasion marked by a ceremonial groundbreaking ceremony attended by 俄亥俄州 leadership, esteemed campus partners, and our dedicated design and construction teams. 在一起, we symbolically broke ground, signifying the beginning of a new chapter in our campus's development.
Following this event, we continued the celebration with our students at Paw Print Park. Throughout this journey, our students have been integral, offering valuable insights and perspectives every step of the way. As we bid farewell to another academic year and embark on this exciting endeavor, we wanted to ensure their continued involvement and engagement.
This groundbreaking student event was not your typical affair with ceremonial shovels; instead, we embraced the spirit of togetherness with food, fun and activities that encapsulated our enthusiasm for what lies ahead. It was about fostering a sense of community and pride as we embark on the transformation of South Green and it had us all saying, "I dig South Green!”
