January 2, 2017- Indianola School on E. 16th. My daughter started kindergarten there in 2004. This year (2017) she'll graduate high school and start college, thanks in part to the great start she got at old Indianola.

January 9, 2017- 100 years ago this week, Ohio State's Homeopathic Hospital--the future Starling-Loving Hall--was dedicated. The College of Homeopathic Medicine only lasted until 1922 but the building (subsequently expanded many times) became the home of University Hospital until 1951. Starling-Loving still stands today and is home to medical center laboratories and offices. Alas, the original 1917 section was demolished in 2021.
