2025 Fall Off-Campus Living Expo Highlights
Off-Campus Housing Network Property Companies
- The property companies came to have fun!
- Attendees left the expo with not only great information to support their off campus living housing search, but LOTS of giveaways.
- While some companies had loads of snacks others had fun games or interactive stations like playing corn hole or building your own flower bouquet.
Safety & Community Resources
This year, the event featured The Community Connection on Potter Plaza, which provided an interactive space for students to connect with the resources that serve them while living off campus. Some of the participating organizations included:
- City of Columbus Division of Police
- 311, Code Enforcement
- Buckeye Block Watch
- University District Organization
Students even had the chance to participate in an interactive fire extinguisher demonstration courtesy of the City of Columbus Division of Fire.
Fun Elements
- Attendees who worked their way through the expo earned prize tickets as well as food vouchers for the Dos Hermanos Food Truck!
- A very special visit from Brutus Buckeye
- Live fire extinguisher demonstration
