Update

Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities will be administered in compliance with the law as of June 27, 2025.

Community Roundtable

Willie J. Young, Sr. Off-Campus and Commuter Student Engagement hosts Community Roundtables as an exclusive benefit for members of the Off-Campus Housing Network.  Join us each month for an opportunity to engage with peers and community members and learn from university and City of Columubs partners, to help your business thrive. These roundtables spotlight services, programs, and opportunities—from academic support to wellness, career development, and more—designed to help Ohio State students thrive. 

As part of the commitments members agree to, attendance is required at 50% of the annual community roundtables and in-person attendance required at two community roundtables.
