A fall week in photos

November 12, 2014

What does Ohio State look like in fall? Photographers throughout campus recently captured a week in the life of Buckeyes – from sunrise on the Oval to students and researchers huddled in the lab. The big picture: Autumn at Ohio State is beautiful and eventful.


Behind the scenes: Get the full story of 10 photos you can’t miss.

  1. Orton Hall is tied with Hayes Hall as one of the oldest buildings on campus. Combine the timeless feel with the autumn colors, and you get one gorgeous campus photo.

  1. Fall is a special time on campus for alumni who travel from all over the world to return for Homecoming Weekend. (#ThisisOhioState fact: Ohio State has more than half a million.) Few things say “Buckeye pride” more than a Block O painted on your face that weekend. O-H!

  1. At Ohio State, innovative research is everywhere. Here, Civil, Environmental and Geodetic Engineering researchers and professors test mobile mapping technology in the Scott Laboratory courtyard.

  1. From the Wexner Center for the Arts to the Hopkins Hall Gallery, art abounds at Ohio State.  If you take a stroll into Campbell Hall, you’ll even find the Costume and Textile Museum with the unique “And the Bride Wore…” exhibit.

  1. Ohio State's new collaborative space for the William G. Lowrie Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry (CBEC) is a state-of-the-art facility that has modernized the look of Koffolt Laboratories. The new windows offer a reflection of the heart of the science and engineering neighborhood of campus. (#ThisisOhioState fact: The College of Engineering is in the nation's top 20 public engineering programs.)
Koffolt Labs
  1. Bon appetit! Ohio Union Activities Board, one of 1,000-plus student organizations on campus, hosts events for a wide range of student interests. The OUAB in the Kitchen series, for example, is taught under the guidance of the Ohio Union’s professional chefs.

  1. Research and learning come to life in Ohio State’s labs and classrooms. For one graduate and one post-doctoral researcher, that means demonstrating light from a laser pointer disseminating through a cloud of liquid nitrogen.

  1. #BuckeyeLove is in the air at Ohio State’s Wexner Medical Center, where parents meet their baby Buckeyes for the very first time. Visitors find laughs, smiles, and lots of newborns wearing their first pieces of Ohio State gear. (See recent med center accolades.)

  1. Nothing says fall more than a fire and football. At the Longaberger Alumni House, you’ll find countless tributes to Buckeye alums including Archie’s No. 45 on Griffin Pavilion.

  1. In India, autumn is the festival season. Ohio State’s Indian Student Association gathered at Browning Amphitheater in late October to celebrate Diwali – the festival of lights.
