OHIO students surprise faculty members with thankful letters

Happy Thanksgiving, Bobcats! This time of year is more than pumpkin pies and stuffed turkeys — Thanksgiving is a reminder to pause the noise of everyday life and thank those who are important to you.

At Ohio University, students interact with many staff and faculty members. Often, students form relationships with them that make a lasting impact.

Students Pat Daley and Liam McCamish thank Esports Director Jeff Kuhn for "making a place where students feel accepted and welcome."
