Testimonial
鈥淎s a Voinovich Scholar, I had numerous opportunities to collaborate with staff and students on projects aimed at addressing some of the issues affecting communities in Ohio. I understood how the work I did in the classroom overlapped with my work as a Voinovich Scholar, and now that I鈥檝e started working in my chosen field, I am encouraged to see how they have both prepared me for my career.鈥
