“I have two small children at home. I am definitely a family man and I feel that equally here. It’s often said that we have that family aspect as a college. It truly feels that way here, as a Dublin Campus, and I am appreciative to be a part of that. I am energized by our close-knit community. It would nearly be impossible to walk through any hallway without a ‘hello,’ or a smile to be given — always receiving one in return. It is refreshing and energizing to walk about campus, always seeing a familiar and welcoming face among our students, staff and faculty. We know each other and we are here for each other. That’s what makes our campus a community.” Brian Thompson, Senior Director, Administration #HumansofOUHCOM #careleadshere #ouhcom #ohiouniversity #osteopathicmedicine #medstudent (photograph by @chaz_e)

"I never expected to be here, never in a million years. I was a photographer, and I spent my time between the U.S. and New Zealand. I was quite happy doing that. And then an earthquake destroyed Christchurch, where I was living. So I was there for that, and for about a month afterwards, and then I heard about the huge tsunami that hit Japan. So I went up there and was trying to cover the aftermath of the tsunami and wound up getting evacuated. When I came home I lost a close friend to a random act of violence. All of that was within six months. After that, photography didn’t satisfy as much. I could photograph everything that was happening, and it went out worldwide. But I couldn’t do anything personally about the person bleeding in front of me. The reason I want to go into medicine is to go back to do relief work and humanitarian work.” Stephen McNulty, DO, Class of 2019 #HumansofOUHCOM #careleadshere#ouhcom #ohiouniversity #osteopathicmedicine #medstudent (photograph by @marlenasloss)
The new dean of our Athens campus has arrived! Dr. Longenecker has a full few weeks of orientation ahead, which began today with a changing-of-the-guard meeting with Dr. Wayne Carlsen, our awesome interim dean of the Athens campus; meetings with a few of our units; and, of course, official portraits. #careleadshere #OUHCOM #medschool #OhioUniversity (photographs @facun)

“I’m often referred to as the campus mom. Sometimes they just need that little ‘You got this,’ or ‘You’re going to make it.’ Sometimes it means giving them a hug, if they need a hug. I see myself as being a support person for them, an encourager, just being there to help guide them. That is my role, in addition to all the administrative things that I do. Last year was the first class that we were able to graduate. It was our inaugural class. It was a very rewarding experience because you watched them come in here as nervous first-year students — not knowing what to expect — and leaving here, going out to be doctors and serving the people in the respective programs that they were successful in achieving. It was a little overwhelming, just like I felt when my kids graduated from college. It just solidifies everything, to see it all come together.” Pam Dixson, Manager, Dublin Dean’s Office #HumansofOUHCOM #careleadshere #ouhcom #ohiouniversity #osteopathicmedicine #medstudent (photograph by @chaz_e)
