Grace under fire

“ I remember hearing your voice guiding me back to reality…I credit your voice as much as any medicine.”

Daring to dialogue

A conference about peace typically invites panelists from war-torn countries or populations clashing overseas. This year, OHIO’s Baker Peace Conference (BPC)—a 30-year leader in international peacekeeping discourse—addressed divisions felt on our own soil, among communities separated by mere miles.

Difficult dialogues

OHIO’s George Washington Forum exemplifies a strategic pathway established by OHIO President M. Duane Nellis: “Becoming a place where dialogue and rigorous, civil debate are institutional hallmarks.” Founded in 2009, the effort, supported by alumni and friends, foundations, and corporations, provides space on campus for this dialogue to occur.

LEEDing the way

When renovations to Ellis Hall are completed this year, the landmark’s iconic features will remain intact: the brick façade, the east portico, the giant, shady sycamore trees. But when students and faculty re-enter the grounds, close inspection will reveal new technology that complements the building’s venerable vibe, including LED lighting, low-flow toilets and sinks, and drought-tolerant trees and shrubs.

A cut above

“Titles are granted. Leadership is earned.” OHIO’s Walter Center for Strategic Leadership in the College of Business stands by these words. The center and the college mean business when it comes to training, coaching, and encouraging the next generation of leaders.

Greening by example

Leadership takes many forms, but the most important is when it prepares for the future. In 2012, OHIO adopted a Climate Action Plan (CAP), setting the goal of attaining carbon neutrality on the Athens Campus by 2075. To get there, OHIO’s Office of Sustainability integrated best practices to reach the goal. Phase One of the plan ends this fall, and most of the benchmarks already have been met.
