Why Are the Cows on Vacation?
During the construction of the new Multi-Species Animal Learning Complex, our beloved cows took a temporary break from Waterman. Now, with your help, they’re ready to return — and they’re bringing big dreams with them!
What’s “So Much More”?
This campaign isn’t just about cows. It’s about:
- Hands-on learning for students across species
- Cutting-edge agricultural research
- Community outreach and education
- A hub for innovation at The Ohio State University College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences (CFAES)
