People look at me like I'm crazy when I say that our greatest partnership here at Ohio State should be with the community colleges.

I believe everything learned in college is an answer to a question that someone has posed. Questions get posed differently and the answers that come back transport us to places we never knew existed.

A truly great university is a nucleus of artistic expression. It fosters creative, critical thought, and serves as a platform for civil discourse.

I am a bit odd. I am somewhat evangelical. But I am not crazy.

You can’t trust those damn Catholics.

So if a college education is indispensable, the challenge as I see it is how to make it more accessible.

Being president of a major public university is the most political nonpolitical office around.
