    Aug 11 2025
    Hello, Buckeyes! Welcome to this week's campus news update for Monday, August 11, 2025. Let's dive into the latest happenings at Ohio State University. The Buckeyes are gearing up for an exciting football season. Fall camp is in full swing under the leadership of seventh-year head coach Ryan Day. The team, comprising 120 players, began practices at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center, with fans and media in attendance. Notably, safety Caleb Downs, a unanimous All-American last year, returns to lead the defense, while wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, the Big Ten's freshman of the year, anchors the offense. Mark your calendars for August 30, when Ohio State hosts the Texas Longhorns at Ohio Stadium. This game is significant not only as the season opener but also as the final appearance of ESPN's Lee Corso on "College GameDay." Corso, who began his iconic headgear picks in Columbus back in 1996, will make his last pick here, bringing his storied career full circle. Both the men's and women's soccer teams have been recognized for their academic excellence. The men's team achieved a 3.21 GPA while clinching the Big Ten regular season and tournament titles in 2024. The women's team posted an impressive 3.65 GPA and advanced in the NCAA Tournament. Congratulations to our student-athletes for excelling both on the field and in the classroom. Prospective students, don't miss the Buckeye Preview Day tomorrow, August 12, at the Lima campus. This open house offers campus tours, major explorations, and insights into admissions and financial aid. It's a great opportunity to experience the Buckeye tradition firsthand. Attention faculty and staff: Starting with the autumn semester on August 26, 2025, there will be updates to the Faculty and Staff Tuition Assistance Plan. If you leave Ohio State employment, you'll be required to repay any tuition assistance received within the 12 months prior to your departure. Additionally, the plan will no longer cover fee adjustments due to course withdrawals. Please plan accordingly and stay informed about these changes. That's all for this week's update. Stay safe, stay informed, and as always, Go Bucks!
