Institute for Population Research

We wanted to congratulate all OSU participants at this year's annual PAA meeting in Austin last week. IPR director and PAA President John Casterline gave his presidential address on "Childbearing as Choice". We hope everyone had a great time and congratulations on all your hard work!

After 25 years of dedicated service to Ohio State, our very own Susan Pennington retired at the end of 2018. Thank you so much for your work at IPR. You've been a part of IPR since day 1 and your enthusiasm, commitment, and kindness made the center what it is today. You made everyone's days brighter and your presence is going to be missed. We wish you the very best in your retirement!

Susan began her career at Ohio State in August of 1993. Prior to her appointment at IPR, she served as Graduate Coordinator in the Department of Sociology; Student Services Associate in the Fisher College of Business Graduate Program Office; Social and Behavioral Human Subjects Coordinator in the Research Risks Department; and as an Office Associate in the Hematology/Oncology Department at the OSU Medical Center.

Susan received the 2014 College of Arts and Sciences Outstanding Staff Award, in recognition of valuable contributions to the college.

Again, congratulations on your retirement, Susan!
