鈥淚 am incredibly grateful for the partnership opportunities within both colleges and thank Dean (David) Nguyen and Interim Dean (Sarah) Poggione for their willingness to assist in piloting this project,鈥 said Heather Krugman, executive director of the OUBSC. 鈥淓ach college continues to share their own unique perspectives that can help improve our processes for the benefit of faculty, staff and students.

The College of Arts and Sciences and University College are the most recent colleges to join OHIO鈥檚 service center initiative. Previous transitions have included the Scripps College of Communication and Honors Tutorial College.
