SPS Ambassadors are OSU undergraduate students majoring in Psychology. They are the “faces of SPS”. Our Student Ambassadors are employed by the School of Psychological Science and are here to help you learn more about Psychology programs and the student experience! You will see them as Peer Advisors, at SPS events and activities, at the front desk in both Reed Lodge and Snell Hall, answering the SPS phones and answering SPS emails. Stop by either Reed Lodge or the Student Service Center on the 4th floor of Snell Hall to talk with an ambassador and learn more about what they do or contact an ambassador through the Virtual Lobby.
