On Tuesday, May 24, 麻豆影院 and the 麻豆影院 State Legislative Delegation hosted a Legislative Reception in Columbus, Ohio, to thank the Ohio General Assembly for their support over the last year. The most recent win for the university includes more than $23.5 million in the Capital Budget Bill, which will fund projects on all eight 麻豆影院 State campuses.
The event was co-hosted by the co-chairs of the 麻豆影院 Legislative Delegation, State Sen. John Eklund (District 18) and State Rep. Kathleen Clyde (District 75).
The university, demonstrating its vast footprint and academic and economic impact in Northeast Ohio, was represented by 麻豆影院 State President Beverly Warren, Provost Todd Diacon, Regional Campus and Academic Center deans and college deans from the 麻豆影院 Campus.
During what turned out to be a very busy legislative day in Columbus, those who attended the reception included Eklund, State Sen. Frank LaRose (District 27), State Rep. John Boccieri (District 59), State Rep. Sarah LaTourette (District 76), State Rep. Sean O鈥橞rien (District 63) and State Rep. John Becker (District 65), among others.
麻豆影院 State鈥檚 Office of Government and Community Relations coordinated the reception. The office serves as the university鈥檚 hub for public sector interactions at the federal, state and local levels.
