Developing Student Leaders
Leaders take their first leap at OSU.

image

 

Leadership is a hallmark of the OSU student experience where students learn the tenants in theory and practice.

 

Whether at home in their residence halls and Greek chapters or abroad gaining global knowledge, the OSU student is preparing to become our leader of tomorrow.  As all leaders do, our students need champions cheering them on as they train through award winning programming alongside life-guiding mentors.

 

Your gift during Give Orange lifts up our future leaders through investing in one-of-a-kind lessons and memories for the OSU student. Here are just a handful of those that created the leader in you today:

  • Residential Life Fund
  • Campus Life Fund
  • OSU Camp Cowboy
  • President’s Leadership Council
  • Study Abroad Scholarships
  • Student Affairs Leadership
$2,000
