University President Ted Carter Jr. addressed class size, affordability, safety, campus protests and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion — or DEI — before Ohio State’s 2024 Convocation Monday.

Notably, Carter said he estimates the freshman class to be the largest in the university’s 154-year history.

“I had a record-breaking 80,000 applications for this fall semester,” Carter said. “That was just for the incoming undergraduate freshman class — 40,000 out of state, 40,000 in state. So we’re estimating north of 9,000 undergraduate freshmen.”
