"At this point what we really are encouraging is for the Turpin site to be a community archaeology project. So, we’re involving the descendants of the Turpin family. We’ve met several of them already and they are extremely interested in the project and participating. In that sense, it’s kind of like an ancestry project that goes into the ground. So, it’s not just talking to older people in your family and piecing together your genealogy but actually going back to the material left behind and understanding that through their eyes."
-Professor Robert Cook, Anthropology, Faculty Oversight Committee Member of the Newark Earthworks Center.
General Education (GE) Program
In autumn 2022, Ohio State will launch a new General Education (GE) program that reduces the number of required GE credit hours, provides undergraduate students more flexibility in scheduling, streamlines time to degree, and better prepares them for the opportunities and challenges of the 21st century. It is the first major overhaul of the GE curriculum in more than 30 years.
