A long-time advocate for children and youth, Representative Ted Celeste is also recognized for his contributions to education. In fact, Representative Ted Celeste crafted Ohio’s policy to allow foster alums that attend Ohio Community Colleges to have a greater value of their OCOG grant (state financial aid) than other students, in recognition that most others are commuters while foster alums must finance their own housing.
On June 10, the John Glenn School of Public Affairs at Ohio State University has named State Rep. Ted Celeste (D-Columbus) the recipient of its "Outstanding Public Service Award" for career contributions to public service. The school cited Celeste as a “stalwart supporter of education and leader throughout his career” and for his leadership in the “effort to create OSU’s Science and Technology Campus which houses space for biotech and biomedical startup companies,” among other accomplishments.
