Episode 2 in "Faces:" The Remarkable ROAR Guides

The

second episode of "Faces of the #HottestCollegeinAmerica"

salutes UC ROAR Guides -- the 168 volunteers who lead thousands of tours each year on our campus. Hosting over 31,000 visitors per year, the ROAR Guides devote up to four hours a week on their unpaid duties, adding up to 2,500 tours in a year and sometimes 40 a day.

Launched and hosted by President Santa J. Ono, this video series and its

accompanying website

showcase the outstanding contributions of UC faculty, staff, students and alumni to the University of Cincinnati.  The website features a way to give kudos to members of the UC community who you want to recognize and to make suggestions for future Faces to feature in the series.
