O.U.A.B. has managed to get some large musical acts to come to Ohio State, including T-Pain and, just last week, Weezer. This time, however, the musical act won’t be coming to perform.
R&B musician and six-time Grammy winner John Legend will be appearing at 7 p.m. Oct. 17 at the Archie Griffin Grand Ballroom. Tickets will be released at the Ohio Union Information Center at 5 p.m. today.
Legend, a native of Springfield, Ohio, will stop at the Ohio Union in support of his organization, the Show Me Campaign.
The campaign is trying to reform public education in the United States. Legend will talk to OSU students about the issue when he stops at the Union.
The event will not entirely be Legend lecturing to students, however. The vocalist will partake in a Q&A with attendees and, according to the OUAB’s website, will perform a few songs, as well.
