Every Spring it’s the same thing: journalism students inevitably post their “Gee, Ohio State Sure was Something, Wasn’t It?” essays. Oh, and, of course, the whole “Freshman, Make Sure You Experience Everything Ohio State Offers So That in 4 Years, You, Too Can Write an Essay Titled, ‘Gee, Ohio State Sure Was Something, Wasn’t It?’.”

But, shoot, those essays always bring back that melancholy feeling most of us (I’m sure) got in those dwindling days of college life. I guess I really do love (yeah, ‘love’) that little ache in my heart. Don’t get me wrong, I am GLAD I’m done (it’s been a few years). But, it’s true, you really do leave a little bit of your heart at OSU. Then you find out they’re tearing down your old haunts and putting up some newfangled student thingamajig. Maybe it was place you worked, you hung out at, or just walked by on the way to class. Anyway, now I’M writing an essay, so I’ll stop. But, well, Ohio State really WAS something.
