Cadet Ranum is this week’s Cadet Spotlight. She is studying chemical engineering and branched Aviation this past week. She is an MSV and is a distinguished military graudate comissioning this spring.
“I was interested in OSU because of the strong engineering program here, but I ultimately chose OSU because I fell in love with the campus,” said Ranum. ”I visited the campus during the spring, and between all of the greenery and brick buildings I knew it would be a great place to spend the next few years of my life.”
Ranum is very excited to be an Army Aviator. She has been working hard the past 5 years to earn her aviation slot.
“Everything about aviation excites me. From the thrill of flying an aircraft, to the skill and work it takes to become a great pilot, I find the challenge of aviation exciting,” said Ranum. “Army Aviation supports our ground forces in so many ways it is incredible, and I cannot wait to learn more about the branch and start my training to become a pilot.”
In her free time Ranum likes to go out with friends, read, and play volleyball. She said she is excited to comission but will miss OSU. The community I have found here is what made my college experience so enjoyable. I will miss everyone when we part ways, but I cannot wait to see what everyone does in the future,” said Ranum.
