OSU has received official certification as an affiliate of the Bee Campus USA program designed to utilize campus landscape resources for the benefit of pollinators.

OSU is the first university in the state to receive this designation and has also been recognized as a “Tree Campus” by the Arbor Day Foundation for the past 11 years. Post-doctoral fellow Emily Geest and graduate student Teri Cocke, both in the Department of Integrative Biology, spearheaded the university’s efforts to apply and receive the Bee Campus USA designation.

The OSU Department of Theatre is producing "The Wedding Singer." The musical begins at 7:30 p.m. April 21 in the Vivia Nail Locke Theatre in the Seretean Center for the Performing Arts.

“It's big, the cast is big, the costumes are big, the lights are going to be big," said Devon Hunt, assistant professor of musical theatre and director of the musical.

A new exhibition curated by OSU graduate students opens April 26 at the OSU Museum of Art. “In Situ: Place, Meaning, and Identity in America” is inspired by the Latin term “in situ,” which refers to an object in its original place.

Dr. Karen Greenwalt’s ART 5813 students saw “in situ” represented in many OSU Museum of Art Permanent Collection works, leading them to choose objects for the exhibition that emphasize the interdependent relationship between place and identity.
