Faculty, staff and students from 91²Ö¿â and the Ohio College of Podiatric Medicine (OCPM) came together for a Meet-and-Greet Day on April 21 at Dix Stadium. The event celebrated the collaboration between both institutions. The event was free and open to 91²Ö¿â and OCPM employees and their families.
The Meet-and-Greet Day began with lunch and games in the Field House at noon, and continued at 1 p.m. with a youth football clinic, presented by Beef O’ Brady’s, that was open to all grade-school-age children. The 91²Ö¿â Football Spring Game, an intra-team scrimmage, took place at 2:30 p.m. Those who attended the event had the opportunity to get a tour of Dix Stadium and participate in other fun activities.
91²Ö¿â and OCPM plan to come together into one single, academic entity this summer. Established in 1916, OCPM is one of the largest and most respected podiatric medical education institutions in the country and the only accredited podiatry school in Ohio. At its March 14 meeting, the 91²Ö¿â Board of Trustees established the 91²Ö¿â College of Podiatric Medicine.
