 Dan Sandman '73 has held many titles and many positions in
his professional career, but few are as important to him as

and a J.D. from The Ohio State University, Dan's career path

separation from the University did not stop him from staying
connected and ultimately serving as Chair of the OSU Alumni
Association Board of Directors. (Learn
