The ONU Symphony Orchestra concert on Saturday night, Oct. 15, at Freed Center will begin at 8:15  p.m.instead of 7:30 p.m., due to an unforeseen scheduling conflict, according to Dr. Becky Casey.

She said, "The Music Department would like to extend the offer of one free beverage, for all Symphony Orchestra concert-goers at the ONU Inn prior to the concert, from 7:15 to 8 p.m. that evening.

Reflects their zeal for connecting with students on the learners’ terms

After six years and 1,185 bottles of Diet Dr Pepper, Ohio Northern University professors of biological science Rod Anderson and Linda Young have completed a textbook that reflects their zeal for connecting with students on the learners’ terms.

“Visualizing Microbiology,” published by Wiley, was released in mid-September. The text is available in both hard copy and digital formats and is intended for use in college courses by students pursuing health care academic majors and careers.

Students working with "real-life" clients

 One of the biggest transitions for a college student is the graduation to the “real-world.”

It can come with many questions and concerns because, as a graduate, they are no longer in the proverbial “Kansas” anymore. Navigating through job responsibilities in a career can look starkly different compared to the coursework of a college major.

The Ohio Northern University Symphony Orchestra will present the concert, “Pines and Mountains,” at 8:15 p.m. on Oct. 15 in the Freed Center for the Performing Arts. The concert is presented by the ONU Department of Music.

Music Director Travis Jürgens will conduct the ONU Symphony Orchestra for the concert, which will open with music from “Jurassic Park” by John Williams, followed by composer Jeff Midkiff’s “Mandolin Concerto.” The composer is also the guest soloist for this piece.
