To Whom It May Concern:

As the Instructor for "Positive Transitions for Intercollegiate Student-Athletes" and also "Contemporary Issues Affecting Intercollegiate Student-Athletes" at The Ohio State University I have routinely requested Mr. Greg Schenk to serve as a guest speaker to supplement my teachings. Greg has spoken on various topics including Entrepreneurship, Networking, Life Skills, Career Advice, etc.

Not only is Greg very informative but also very motivational for the students. After hearing Greg's story students walk away eager to jump start their lives. Whether it's to increase their public speaking skills, take more business classes, search for an internship or just become more confident he always leaves them positive. One student commented, "Greg made me realize that if you want something in life, if you put your heart and soul in it you can always achieve your dreams." Greg will take time to offer students to schedule follow-up appointments where he utilizes his own network of contacts to best assist the students.

Greg has positively impacted each class he has spoke with. He is a great resource for our department and he will continue to assist with the development of our students.
