On Tuesday, May 4, all Ohio registered voters have the opportunity to
help secure a brighter future for our state and our university system by
supporting State Issue 1, which renews Ohio's successful Third Frontier
jobs and economic development program.
Here is what it has meant to Ohioans:
• expansion of businesses, generating 571 new companies since 2002
• 48,000 new jobs with more on the way, helping to keep talented young
people in the state
• breakthrough discoveries in a state that will lead the way in the new knowledge economy.
The University's Board of Trustees and leaders across our campus join me
in recognizing that passage of State Issue 1 will help Ohio State
maintain its position as one of the truly great research institutions in
the nation. One more point: State Issue 1 is not a tax increase. It is,
instead, a means to accelerate our positive momentum.
By voting yes on Issue 1, we can assure a vibrant future for Ohio.
Sincerely,
E. Gordon Gee
President
