From one of our 2007 Scholarship Recipents

I recieved a scholarship from your organization last year and I wanted to write to you guys to let you know how I'm doing! I'm just about done with my 2nd quarter of my 2nd year at OSU and am very excited about where my major in Nutrition in Industry seems to be taking me! This quarter I finally started taking actual nutrition classes and I find it very beneficial. One such course is Food Safety and Sanitation, and this week, actually, I will be taking the ServSafe certification exam which is pretty exciting! Also, just this quarter I found myself a job in a restaurant on campus called Courtside Cafe! I am working in the kitchen, helping prepare food and I really discovered how much I enjoy working in the restaurant industry. Hopefully my opinion won't change and that's where my career will lead me, but for now that's looking pretty good for me! I actually have to get ready for work now, so I have go.

Thanks again for everything!
