"But For Ohio State..."

Announcing Wexner Medical Center at The Ohio State University

I would have never been <br>able to go to college.

I would have never been
able to go to college.

My twins would not have survived.

My heart would have given out on me.

I'd be on dialysis instead of playing with my daughters.

I'd still be putting up with the arthritis pain in my knee.

I wouldn't have survived the stroke.

I would have died from a hidden health problem.

Mammograms would just be considered routine.

The middle market's full power to restore the economy would go untapped.

When Class of 1959 alum Les Wexner made a historic $100 million gift to the university in February 2011, he crystallized his profound connection to the university with the phrase: “But For Ohio State…”

Since then, the broad Ohio State community—alumni, students, grateful patients, faculty and staff, entrepreneurs, and friends and fans—has stepped forward to share their stories of what Ohio State means to them. Find out what fellow Buckeyes have to say and tell us what Ohio State means to you.
