Why I Call Ohio Home

I recently spoke with Dr. Gregory Washington, interim dean of The Ohio State University’s College of Engineering, about why he is proud to call Ohio home.

As interim dean of OSU’s College of Engineering, Dr. Washington shared with me his appreciation for Ohio’s strong history in manufacturing. From the processing of raw materials to the creation of finely tuned products, Ohioans serve as the world's experts in the manufacturing sector.

In addition, Ohio is committed to providing the very best education. Across the state Ohio businesses benefit from this commitment by attracting and retaining a talented and skilled workforce.

But most importantly, Dr. Washington was drawn to Ohio’s warm and friendly people. Originally from the South, he was looking for a place to live committed to family. Ohio’s commitment to work:life balance allows him to spend quality time with his family, while being able to achieve professional success.
