 Welcome to the latest episode of our campus news podcast, bringing you the most recent updates from The Ohio State University at Marion. Today is Monday, August 25, 2025. Earlier this year, Dr. Jennifer Schlueter assumed her role as the new dean and director of Ohio State Marion on March 17, 2025. Dr. Schlueter, previously the vice provost of academic affairs at The New School in New York City, brings a wealth of experience in academic administration and a strong commitment to student success and community engagement. She is an Ohio State alumna, having earned her PhD in theatre performance, history, and theory here. Dr. Schlueter has expressed enthusiasm about returning to Ohio State and leading the Marion campus into a new era of growth and innovation. The Engineering Technology program at Ohio State Marion continues to thrive. The program, designed to produce highly skilled graduates with comprehensive training in manufacturing engineering, has seen its first cohorts graduate and secure positions within the industry. Notably, Owen Peters, a 2024 graduate, began his role as a manufacturing equipment engineer at Honda's facility in Anna, Ohio, shortly after graduation. This success underscores the program's effectiveness in preparing students for the workforce and its strong connections with industry partners. Ohio State Marion remains dedicated to fostering interest in STEM fields among younger students. This summer, the campus hosted its annual STEM and Engineering Camps, welcoming 80 middle and high school students from across central and north-central Ohio. These camps provided hands-on experiences in science and engineering, including tours of manufacturing facilities like the Honda East Liberty plant and collaborative projects with faculty. The initiative aims to inspire the next generation of innovators and has received positive feedback from participants. Looking ahead, the campus is excited to host the "Five Nights on Campus" performing arts series. This series features a variety of performances, ranging from Irish folk music to Broadway classics. It's an excellent opportunity for students and community members to experience diverse cultural events right here on campus. For more information on the upcoming performances, visit the Marion Area Convention and Visitors Bureau website. That's all for today's update. Stay tuned for more news and events from The Ohio State University at Marion.
