"After hiking up this mountain, my peers and I were in awe at the beauty we saw. The view was amazing, but so was the unique ground beneath our feet. Then, out of nowhere, we heard an "O-H" from an unfamiliar voice. It turned out to be that of an OSU alumni who was on her own trip and had saw some of our Ohio State gear. In this moment, I realized that although this space was huge and beautifully unfamiliar, it was part of a small world we live in."
