Good morning, Athens.

Free legal advice clinics are held on the second Thursday of each month from 4-6 p.m. at NAMI Southeast Ohio’s office (17 Blue Line Drive) by the Athens County Bar Association in partnership with LASCO and Ohio University to help eligible residents with issues like landlord-tenant disputes and family law questions.

Ohio University leaders made their first visit to Toyota West Virginia on May 14 when they toured the $3.3 billion facility in Buffalo (one of the region’s largest employers) and discussed a long-term partnership focused on workforce development and research.

Ohio University students will soon benefit from a $1 million gift by June Konold that will fund the new Konold Family Pavilion and Patio at the Marching 110 Band Practice Facility.

The pavilion will help students rehearse, perform, and build lasting community ties.

Ohio University faculty experts explained that AI slop (low-quality AI-generated content) is flooding digital media and changing how social platforms capture attention.

They stressed the need for better digital literacy to help users identify misleading content online.
