Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

New and Improved Website

As part of their final project in ANTHROP 5505: Wicked Science, Ryan Burrows, Blue Lerner, Tobin Provenzale, and Lindsey Shimoda worked together to update this wicked science website.

They had learned throughout the year that a large part of tackling wicked problems revolves around communication. Knowing that, they chose to update the website to increase the clarity of its information for both the wicked science program and the concept of wicked problems.

Their goal was to introduce wicked problems to students who might be interested in the program but unfamiliar with the term “wicked problems”. 

To do so they added webpages describing wicked problem characteristics as well as case studies to exemplify what wicked problems can be. 

These pages are a valuable addition to the wicked science program website that highlights the opportunities for our students to make unique and meaningful contributions.
