Sarah Cramer with Mask Mask Mandate Lift! Back to normal?

Sarah Cramer

MHRMStarting March 11, masks are optional in most indoor OSU buildings/settings. For the first time ever I will get to sit in class and see my classmates full faces and get the full “normal” classroom experience. With how exciting this is, it is still nerve racking, but I am excited to finish out the program seeing the smiles on my classmates faces! 3415/blogs/gradlife/2022/03/10/mask-mandate-lift-back-normal

Campus LifeCombined BSBA/MAcc, Sports, OSU basketballAs a Combined BSBA/MAcc student, this is my fourth year at Ohio State. During that time, I attended multiple football games a year but never once attended a basketball game. As February came to an end and March Madness loomed ahead, I knew I needed to attend a game soon if I ever wanted to participate in the OSU basketball tradition while a student. Ohio State's earlier game against Iowa was canceled due to COVID, so general admission student tickets were available to purchase online for only $10. I got a ticket, rounded up some friends, and made my way to the Schottenstein Center.3413/blogs/gradlife/2022/03/08/finally-making-it-schott
My Columbus Winter Weekends

Campus Life, SMFAs most probably know Ohio State is a BIG BIG football school. So you may be wondering what we do with our weekends when winter hits and football comes to an end. Thankfully, Columbus still has so much to offer in terms of fun weekend activities and events. I thought I would share with you some of the fun things I have done and will be doing this winter in Columbus. 3412/blogs/gradlife/2022/02/16/my-columbus-winter-weekends

Victoria Nordquist

MAccIf you've been following my blog posts, you know that last semester I made it a personal goal of mine to have completed all four CPA sections by 2022. With my successful passing of BEC on December 16th, that was the culmination of my CPA journey, and I was free after that. Man, it was a weird feeling. I no longer had to spend every waking moment studying; there was no test date to have anxiety over. I was free in a sense. The looming question was, what was I going to do with all this free time? My passing of the CPA also coincided with winter break, giving me double the free time.3409/blogs/gradlife/2022/02/14/post-cpa-life-columbus
