University Budget Conversations

The University Budget Conversations forums are hosted by the Office of Budget & Resource Planning and are open to all OSU employees and students. The goal of the forums is to answer questions, gain insight from employees and students, and provide information about budgets/budget processes and finance at OSU. The forums will be offered on Thursdays throughout the 2020-2021 Academic Year. The format for the conversations is informal and attendees are encouraged to bring their questions and their lunch. See the 2020-2021 schedule below for forum dates, times, and locations. If you have a question or a comment to share, please use our online form.
