Attention Engineering Alumni!
You may remember seeing the “Where I Live: Washington, D.C.” feature in a recent issue of the OSUAA Magazine. Now, you can help the COE advancement team create a city guide for DC to be shared with future Engineering graduates who move here. This survey should take about 15 minutes to complete. Thank you for sharing your resources and tips!
