Abstract
"A Day in the Life in Physics at Ohio State University" is a blog aimed at giving young people, especially females, a sense of what it is like to live a life in physics. We aim to have a wide variety of perspectives by bringing in writers of different backgrounds, education levels, and genders to tell a story of their daily life or something or someone that has inspired them.
