"The RACER Leaders are a representation of the UNOH student body,” said Tim Fitzpatrick, Dean of the Colleges of Business, Health Professions and Occupational Professions. “Their presence at Open Houses and Orientation events will help prospective students see what it means to be part of the UNOH Family. These students were selected for their demonstration of leadership, campus involvement, academic achievement, and UNOH pride, and we are excited to see how they enhance the student intake experience."
Specifically, RACER Leaders will offer advice and guidance about what it means to be a Racer to incoming students at Orientations, Open Houses, Spring Preview Days, and on Move-In days. They will also participate in other extracurricular events and help new students transition into the UNOH learning environment.
