Grand Opening of CBEC

The grand opening of our CBEC building recently won a bronze medal for “Excellence in Special Events, Series of Events” from the Council for Advancement and Support of Education District V. This was one of nine medals won by Ohio State as part of the Pride of Case V Awards, which will be presented at the annual CASE V Conference in Chicago in December 2015. At the pre-opening dinner for the major donors involved in the building’s fundraising, not one seat was empty, a rare occurrence. Furthermore, the opening day festivities and unique “ribbon cutting” experience made this event award worthy. All in all, the opening was a success thanks to the dedication and collaboration of the College of Engineering and the College of Arts and Sciences and the departments sharing this new space, Chemistry and Biochemistry, and Chemical Engineering.
