Forging connection and community
The Faculty Network creates opportunities for Ohio State faculty to socialize with colleagues, discuss shared interests and concerns, and easily access valuable resources. Planned informal gatherings hosted on and off campus are designed to foster a sense of belonging, mutual support and relationship building among our faculty at Ohio State and in the surrounding communities.
The Faculty Network focuses on the experiences of faculty, though all are welcome to join.
End-of-Year Celebration
The Faculty Network's second annual End-of-Year Celebration was held in early May at the Faculty Club on our Columbus campus. We celebrated our collective achievements and put a bow on the 2024-25 academic year by coming together for afternoon hors d'oeuvres, desserts and delightful camaraderie.
