What Does it Mean to be a Buckeye?

To me, being a Buckeye means: Passionate bonding, tradition reverence, and a steadfast belief in Ohio State University’s commitment to excellence -- now, a commitment to eminence -- and, by extension, this demands a commitment to serving others to the best of my abilities.
