The notion of the large, massive public university that can exist in isolated splendor is dead.
From Gordon Gee
I tend to deal with most issues with humor... always have and always will.
I simply take serious issues seriously, but I do not take myself seriously.
I love this university, and although I might be retiring from the presidency, my work with Ohio State will continue.
I believe being president of a private institution is a remarkable experience, but at Ohio State, it's a calling.
I believe that the future is determined by the great public universities. They educate 80 percent of the students and make the American Dream available.
The strength of the American higher education system is that it is a multifaceted, multi-layered system, and that is what makes us very strong.
A truly great university is a nucleus of artistic expression. It fosters creative, critical thought, and serves as a platform for civil discourse.
To be sure, American higher education is a diverse ecosystem, comprising institutions of all sizes, price tags, and mission statements.
I am not a scientist. I have never analyzed the far reaches of the solar system through the lens of a telescope nor scrutinized cancer cells under a microscope.
