Without you, I’m not sure I would’ve had the fortitude to navigate this bear of a university system. You made me feel seen and heard—like a person, not just a number. Your guidance didn’t just help me get through; it helped me believe I belonged here.

You changed my life by making academia feel accessible.

You have been an incredible advisor while I have been here at OSU and I want to thank you so much for your support!

You have helped me feel confident to explore multiple interests, and always supported me in trying different things. I loved how I could come into my advising appointment with a fully laid out schedule or with absolutely nothing and you gave me great feedback either way.

I'm so grateful to have had you as my advisor!

Kindly,

Fatima

Thank you so much for all of your continued support through my time here at OSU! I have appreciated our time together, both mentor and advisor meetings. I really enjoy our conversations both about school and not. I always feel like a person, not just another face at the university. I feel more sure about my academics thanks to your help and support! I feel like I have grown a lot and I do not think it would be possible without your help. I also want to thank you for always being there if something happens. You are an amazing person and I am forever thankful you are my advisor and mentor! I hope we can keep in touch after graduation!

Thank you for all you do :)

Sincerely,

Abby

I cannot thank you enough for all your help and expertise as I found classes to enroll in. I would have been lost without your guidance and knowledge. Thank you for always being so welcoming and friendly during each of our appointments. I'm so glad you were a part of my journey through OSU!

Thank you so much for all the support and guidance you’ve given me. You've gone above and beyond; your support has made a real difference in my academic journey and personal growth.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have you as my advisor. Thank you for everything!

Thank you for all the support you’ve given me; your guidance has been invaluable, from showing me how to navigate many tools and resources available at OSU to simply being there to answer questions and point me in the right direction. You made everything feel a lot less overwhelming, and I’m truly grateful for your kindness and support.

Thank you again for everything!

Thank you so much for being such a wonderful advisor. Balancing two majors has not always been easy, but you made it feel manageable and even exciting. I truly appreciate how supportive and thoughtful you were whenever I had questions or needed help planning for the future.

I also wanted to share how much I enjoyed taking Ag 407 with you. That book club became one of my favorite parts of the week where I got the chance to slow down, enjoy some tea, and engage in meaningful conversations.

Thank you again for your support, encouragement, and the time you invested in helping me succeed. I feel very fortunate to have had you as an advisor.

Warm regards,

Having bounced around through advisors at the community college and struggled to connect with my advisors in the CoE, meeting with you for the first time was part of how I knew I was on the right track with my education. The care you give to every student who comes through your office is something incredibly special. Thank for all of your time and care throughout my undergraduate experience, and all of your support as I changed my post-bacc plans last minute.
