ΜμΜΓΔρΟΘΙϊ will be featured in an upcoming episode of βThe College Tourβ premiering on Amazon Prime/IMDB on Nov. 9 and is currently streaming on ββ website, app, and streaming on Roku. The episode features 10 amazing Bobcats highlighting their OHIO experiences.
A special sneak peek viewing opportunity will take place at The Athena Cinema on Saturday, Oct. 8 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. during OHIOβs Homecoming weekend, giving alumni back on the bricks an opportunity to view the episode before it premieres and take even more pride in the institution that will always be their home. The 30-minute episode will run on a loop in Theater 2 in The Athena Cinema and the entire OHIO and Athens community is invited to drop in.
βThe College Tour,β a television series by Emmy-nominated and multi-award-winning producers, highlights colleges and universities around the world, telling their stories and what makes them unique through the eyes of their most important advocates and stakeholders: the students.
Joi Foy, a second-year student from Birmingham, Ala. studying journalism, with a minor in sports management, was one of the students featured in OHIOβs episode. During her segment Foy highlights residential life on OHIOβs campus, explaining how finding a community was essential and easier than she first thought. She includes how sheβs already involved in several student organizations such as Ebony Minds and The African Student Association, and how sheβs already found a second home on campus in the Multicultural Center.
βThere is a place for everyone here. I am more than nine hours away from home and coming here I was afraid that I would not find βmy peopleβ or my community. I quickly found that there was a place for all of my interests, demographics, and values here at OHIO,β Foy said.
During OHIOβs episode, viewers will hear from students on various topics such as living in Athens, campus life, experiential learning opportunities, investing in student success, resources to help students, OHIOβs Honors and Scholars programs, community and campus engagement, health and sustainability at OHIO, student organizations and school spirit.
βBeing on ΜμΜΓΔρΟΘΙϊβs campus, the love and excitement for both the school and the surrounding community was so palpable,β Alex Boylan, the host of The College Tour, said. βThereβs no doubt this institution is offering students great experiential learning opportunities personally and professionally in one of the most beautiful environments weβve seen.β
