Greetings!
 As winter quarter comes to a close, we encourage you to take advantage of the many campus resources that promote your health, wellness and safety. Take a study break and relax by attending a concert or art exhibit. Borrow a bike from the RPAC and enjoy the warmer weather. Check out the many health and wellness opportunities below. |
Arts and Sciences Program Highlight
History is a key to understanding the human experience. More than 600 majors learn from a faculty that counts among its members a National Book Award winner and a Knighthood from the King of Spain. Excellent teaching is a hallmark of the  department and has been recognized at both the individual and departmental level through receipt of numerous awards. Students who major in history learn about both western and non-western civilizations and choose a specialty of their choice to provide depth to their learning. The Department encourages research and offers scholarships to help fund original research. The Department also provides scholarships for study abroad, including the Department's unique World War II Study Tour to London, Normandy, Paris and Berlin. Whether in the classroom, the library, or the winding streets of Toledo, Spain, the study of history is alive at Ohio State.
