2018 Ohio State Newark Homecoming Court
Court members are chosen based on their academic success, leadership qualities, spirit, integrity and achievement through their contributions and involvement at Ohio State Newark. The Court selection process begins with a paper application. Based on application scores and GPA, individual interviews are offered and conducted by the Campus Homecoming Committee. The scores from the paper application and interview are combined and the court is announced. The student body will then vote on the queen and king. The announcement and coronation of the Newark Homecoming Court Queen and King takes place on the day before the Homecoming game at the Ohio State Longaberger Alumni House in Columbus.

Arisha RahmanYear: Senior A class that changed my life: Through my psychology class, Memory and Cognition, and with the help of my psychology professors I was able to figure out how I study the best. As a result, I am less intimidated by challenging tests. I plan on going to grad school to get a doctorate in occupational therapy and the study skills I have learned through this class will help me succeed in that doctorate program. Best college experience so far: One experience stands out from the rest; being a Resident Advisor (RA) at the Ohio State Newark dorms. The sense of responsibility I have gained through being an RA as well as holding officer positions for multiple student organizations are skills that will guide me in my future career, as well as when I become a parent. One piece of advice: Take advantage of all of the opportunities offered at Ohio State Newark. Even if you plan to transfer to Columbus campus, don’t be afraid to get involved here. Rather than limiting my opportunities, a smaller campus such as Newark has given me a voice to help lead change in the community. Favorite TV show: The Fosters Favorite movie: 3 Idiots Favorite song: Perfect by Ed Sheeran Student Involvement:
What does it mean to be a Buckeye: I believe that to be a Buckeye is to strive for excellence, not just as a student but in every role you acquire. It is more than just about what you do at Ohio State it’s about developing the person you choose to become in the long run and is also about unity and being a part of something bigger than yourself.

Ciana RoushYear: Senior A class that changed my life: One class that has changed my mindset was a class I took last semester, psychology- stereotyping and prejudice. I learned a lot about how to think while in others’ shoes and to be more open-minded about those from a group of difference, people from a minority group. Best college experience so far: The best college experience I have had so far has to be the collection of memories I have from all of the new friends I have made. I have made friends in many different areas while at Newark, those who lived at the dorms with me, jobs that were on and off-campus, and within the classroom. One piece of advice: Always be on the lookout for a new adventure. Favorite TV show: Bill Nye: Saves the World Favorite movie: The Lion King Favorite song: Happier by Ed Sheeran

Mitchell MullinsYear: Senior A class that changed my life: My intro to Humanities class with professor Evans changed my life. While taking his class I not only had the opportunity to learn about the wonderful material he taught, but it also helped me discover my passion for immersing myself in other cultures. Best college experience so far: My best experience so far was the wonderful experience traveling to Germany with professor Evans and Dr. Brown.

Zachary SparksYear: Sophomore A class that changed my life: One class that has changed my life would be the psychology of stereotyping and prejudice. Through that class I got to meet with someone who has lived with physical disabilities her whole life. Being able to hear her story and input on the world was increasingly enlightening and something I will cherish as I move towards my goals. Best college experience so far: My best college experience so far has easily been the great people I’ve been able to meet. They’ve already added so many wonderful things to my life is such a short time and will help make college such a influential moment in my life. One piece of advice: One piece of advice I would give is to question everything; literally everything. Everything deserves critique! Favorite TV show: Breaking Bad Favorite movie: Gladiator (even though it's incredibly inaccurate) Favorite song: I Could Have Lied by the Red Hot Chili Peppers Student Involvement:
What does it mean to be a Buckeye: To me, being a Buckeye means being a part of a movement larger than myself: a movement that brings a modern-day education to local Ohioans and students from around the world.
