How our elections have changed

In this episode of Now at Ohio State, we discuss how voter distrust, media consumption and growing disinformation have had a big impact on our elections. 

Key Issues at Ohio State

Israel-Hamas War

Ohio State strongly condemns all terrorist groups and terrorist attacks, including those perpetrated by Hamas on Israeli civilians, Americans and others the weekend of October 7, 2023. The university is deeply committed to supporting all students, faculty and staff and will address national and global matters through direct actions and interventions that actively support the university community and afford educational dialogue in safe and supportive environments.

Strauss Investigation

Ohio State condemns Strauss' reprehensible conduct and the university's failure at the time to prevent the abuse.

Philosophy on Statements

To maintain the neutrality that assures academic freedom and freedom of speech and expression, Ohio State refrains from taking institutional positions on matters that extend beyond the university. When statements are issued, the university uses a framework to evaluate making institutional and leadership statements to ensure decisions are made based on consistent factors.
