About this event

New to Ohio State Lima and looking to get involved? Or are you a returning student and looking for something new and exciting to join? Check out our Involvement Fair taking place on campus! Opportunities abound as student organizations have so much to offer. From personal interest, social to academic clubs, the Lima campus has clubs from A to Z, from Art Club to the Zoology Club. Students and faculty provide enticing opportunities for every individual. More than 20 clubs and organizations are on campus, so check out the Involvement Fair to find the right fit for you. 

But wait there is more! 

Get your friends or student organization ready to belt out some tunes with a campus favorite. John Rush is the "Human Spotify." Why? Because he has over 85 hours of music in his head. You could see 42 different 2-hour shows and never hear a song twice. He has two giant request books. Anything from current songs to favorite songs you grew up with! Students pick songs they want to hear and write them on little post-it notes, then stick them all over the stage. This lets the audience get involved and show off their talent.
