About JohnLeiby

Hey everybody, I'm John and I'm a junior studying strategic communication. I am currently interning with OSU athletic communication and I've interned with the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Ohio Historical Society as well. I play intramural dodgeball, basketball, and softball (beware the Revolution) and I plan on working in corporate communication or sports marketing someday.

Back to the Grind

It’s been great being back home for a few days to see the family, and finally get a little extra rest. During autumn quarter this year I continued my internship with OSU Athletics Communications and I split time at Ashland Inc. Most of my summer was spent at Ashland, working in Communications and Corporate Affairs doing trade show/event planning and a lot of graphic design work to help out one of my two supervisors. Definitely different than what I’ve been doing all through college, but it was a great summer and I’ve learned a lot. Just two quarters to go!

Take me out to the ballgame…

…but not until the rain delay is finished. There really are very few downsides to my internship with Athletics Communications, but one of them would have to be sporadic work hours on weekends. I’m going to be at the ballpark for a majority of my Sunday afternoon, which wouldn’t be too bad if it weren’t for the mountain of homework looming at my desk at home. Oops.

Football Weekend

On football saturdays all the students are expected to be at the press box 3 hours prior to kickoff. That means I’ll be getting up around 7:30. Joy. But I’m pretty excited that I’ll be doing spotting for television/radio tomorrow. I’ve never done it before so I’m pretty pumped to see how things go.
