He has always liked science and knew he wanted to go into the field. Of all the different sciences, chemistry was Nicholas\u2019 favorite, and the most interesting to him because of all the real-world applications. Everything in life can be traced back to chemistry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After living in Oregon his whole life and knowing family members who attended, Nicholas knew he wanted to go to OSU. He says that it\u2019s a great college, with amazing faculty, fantastic science programs, and a beautiful campus. After graduation, Nicholas plans to get his Master\u2019s in Education and jump right into student teaching to begin his career as a high school teacher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside of school, Nicholas enjoys spending time with friends and family, playing video games, reading, tennis, and watching movies. Some of his favorite movies include the Cars trilogy, Star Wars, Comic book movies, and the Fast and Furious Franchise. Nicholas\u2019 favorite book is Triple Zero by Karen Traviss (part of the Star Wars Republic Commando series), and his favorite food is cereal- namely Wheaties and Reese\u2019s Puffs. He is very grateful to have been nominated and selected for UGQ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1046\/files\/2024\/01\/Nicholas-Pogue-Picture.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"809\" src=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1046\/files\/2024\/01\/Nicholas-Pogue-Picture.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7310\" srcset=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1046\/files\/2024\/01\/Nicholas-Pogue-Picture.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1046\/files\/2024\/01\/Nicholas-Pogue-Picture-278x300.jpeg 278w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nicholas Pogue grew up in Beaverton, OR, and attended Sunset High School.
