TBDBITL marches into iPad commercial fame 3 campus JACOB HOLLAR Lantern reporter hollar.38@osu.edu The Ohio State Marching Band has exited the field of Ohio Stadium for the winter, but hasn’t left the spotlight.

A commercial released Sunday by Californiabased tech company Apple features the Marching Band in rehearsal.

“We’re really very happy we were selected by Apple,” director of the Marching Band Jonathan Waters said. ”We’re not endorsing a specific company or specific product … but the iPad has helped the Marching Band do what we do.”

Some band

members said it doesn’t feel like reality to be in an Apple commercial.

“It’s pretty surreal,” said Zachary Naughton, a fourth-year in electrical engineering and a sousaphone player in the band, about being in the advertisement.

The commercial for Apple’s iPad Air features the Marching Band as part of a montage of people and groups using iPads for a variety of activities. The narration comes from Robin Williams in the 1989 film “Dead Poets Society,” and includes lines from Walt Whitman’s poem “O Me! O Life!”

“Our name associated with Apple is really special,” Naughton said.

There are a lot of similarities between Apple and the Marching

Band that make the collaboration make sense, said Ryan Barta, a fourth-year in business and trumpet player.

He said both organizations take pride in their “high quality, simplicity, creativity and precision.”

“I was waiting a long time for the moment to air,” Barta said.

Christopher Hoch, associate director of the Marching Band, said he, too, thinks the advertisement was an exciting opportunity.

“It’s pretty cool seeing the band on a national, professionally made commercial,” Hoch said in an

REGINA BONFIGLIO Lantern reporter bonfiglio.20@osu.edu The smell and taste of what some have described as dead underbrush might be lingering in the Columbus water for a while longer.

After two months of treatment and hundreds of thousands of dollars spent, there is no definite solution in sight to the unpleasant taste and odor in the water.

Emily Knisley, a third-year in international studies, compared the scent of the water to that of decaying plant life.

“It’s the same smell as really early spring when the snow melts (the) musty smell of dead underbrush,” Knisley said.

The odor is a result of algal blooms in Columbus’ Hoover Reservoir, affecting about 550,000 Central

FRANCIS PELLICCIARO Lantern reporter pellicciaro.1@osu.edu The chapter is ending for three High Street textbook stores.

College Town, located at 1770 N. High St., closed within about the last month, and University Book Exchange, located at 10 E. 15th Ave., is set to close its store by the end of Spring Semester. Buckeye Books, located at 2060 N. High St., closed during Fall Semester.

College outfitter Neebo owned College Town.

Textbooks can still be purchased or rented through the Neebo website.

“We continue to evaluate our retail stores and remain committed to improving store operations and, most importantly, serving our guests. As part of our ongoing process of overall continuous improvement, we have decided to close College Town,” said Neebo communications specialist Julie Himmelberg in an email.

Brian Wade, the director of property management at RS Garek Associates Ltd., the real estate firm that owns the building, said College Town’s closing didn’t necessarily have to do with the store itself as much as a shift in the dynamic of book stores in recent years.

“It’s just not feasible for them to lease 12,000 square feet and sell books when they’re making a shift online,” Wade said.

Books can still be ordered online through University Book Exchange. According to its website, the store in Columbus is its only location.

A Barnes and Noble manager did not respond to an email requesting comment on the stores’ closures.

Some Ohio State students said the closures could lead to book shortage issues.

18th Ave Library opens a new entrance after renovations ANDREW TODD-SMITH Lantern reporter todd-smith.1@osu.edu Ohio State students can gather around the fireplace to study now that the 18th Avenue Library’s first floor has opened.

Renovations to the library are on time and the facility is fully functional for the first time since the university switched from quarters to semesters in Fall Semester 2012.

The budgeted $1.9 million project was renovated gradually as the library, formerly named the Science and Engineering Library, remained open and available for use throughout the construction process.

“One of the things that adds time to a project is having the building open 24/7 (while) we’re under construction. Renovating a building while it’s in use is a bit of a challenge,” said Bruce Leach, head of the 18th Avenue Library.

The project was allotted a $1.9 million budget in order “to perform needed upgrades to the space so it can best serve our students’ academic needs,” OSU spokeswoman for Administration and Planning Lindsay Komlanc said in an email. She said in a later email the project was “both on time and on budget.”

The first floor receives a significant amount of traffic, Komlanc said, so the project also created a new entrance to the building along 18th Avenue to help traffic flow more efficiently and make the building more accessible.

The streamlined first floor now features increased seating in the Terra Byte Cafe, two areas with computer workstations, new furniture and lighting, a centralized printing station and a lounge alcove with an electric fireplace.

No changes were made to the spaces or foodservice capabilities of the cafe, Komlanc and Leach said.

Acock Associates Architects, the same firm that executed a substantial upgrade to William Oxley Thompson Memorial Library from 2007-09, designed the changes.

The conversion of one of the signature arched windows on the north side into a second entrance required some of the more noticeable and intensive construction work.

“The 18th Avenue entrance is like a pressure release valve on the building, another opportunity for people to come in from that direction and either head upstairs or to the cafe,” Leach said.

In 2012, Leach said users visited the library 1.3 million times.

Stand-up computer stations, which Leach said were in an often crowded area in the center of the old layout, now line one side of a curved partitioning “bar” that divides the study area from the cafe space. This replaces a cluster of workstations that used to contribute to congestion and obstructed foot traffic within the main lobby.

Leach said construction personnel made good use

The library was renovated gradually and remained open and available for use throughout the construction process. of time during the university’s summer and winter breaks to perform more intensive interior work, including the replacement of flooring that was worse for wear in the more than 20-year-old building.

“A lot of time went into planning for when loud, dirty work could be done that wouldn’t get in the way of when students are studying,” Leach said.

Some students had positive things to say about the upgrades.

Staff member Jordan Mendenhall, a fifth-year in mechanical engineering, said while the new design resulted in less space for employees, it “hasn’t changed a whole lot about how we actually go about working.”

“It definitely looks a lot better though, as far as the aesthetics,” Mendenhall said.

Other students said the new door is one of the renovation’s best features.

“This (new) door is really, really nice. Before, we used to all funnel in from that (existing) door,” said Kristin Snider, a third-year in wildlife science and an employee at Terra Byte Cafe. “It allows flow a lot easier. This allows more people, which is, I think, another reason why they did the renovations. People would come in, they would bleed over and even then they didn’t have anywhere to work so they would go up(stairs).”

Snyder said she hasn’t noticed an increase in traffic since the reopening.

“I haven’t noticed us get significantly busier. We’ve always been really busy, especially during lunch,” Snyder said. “This is still the beginning of the semester.

Maybe later, when we get toward midterms, it might increase, but we haven’t had a chance to see it yet because there isn’t as much traffic as there will be then.”

Gracey Crombie, a third-year in psychology and criminology who also works at the Terra Byte Cafe, said she’s happy with the renovations as well.

“There’s a lot more sitting space. It used to fill up very quickly, but now there’s a lot more people sitting here with the added space. The bathrooms got completely redone, too, and they are nice,” Crombie said.

Sydney Kiel, a first-year in international studies, said the added entrance “makes things a little less hectic.”

Leach said the upgrades to the campus resource were long overdue.

“The finishes were just worn out. This building was designed to be a big box of paper with some seats for people in it,” Leach said.

New sorority chapter brings opportunities for some OSU women KARLIE FRANK Lantern reporter frank.359@osu.edu Ohio State undergraduate women who registered for formal sorority recruitment had a new chapter to visit this year: Gamma Phi Beta.

Under the direction of Gamma Phi Beta Collegiate Leadership Consultants Jaclyn Yetter and Lauren Nottoli, recolonization of the Beta Xi chapter of Gamma Phi Beta, which was previously at OSU before leaving in 1967, has begun. With the help of 10 members from the sorority’s University of Cincinnati chapter, the first round of recruitment was held in the Delta Tau Delta fraternity house over the weekend.

But instead of continuing with formal recruitment with OSU’s 16 already-established Panhellenic Association sororities, which are set to finish recruitment with bid day Monday, Gamma Phi Beta will pause the process until Feb. 4. At that time, the sorority will host a kick-off celebration for its own exclusive process that

will conclude with a bid day Feb. 9, according to the calendar on Gamma Phi Beta at Ohio State’s website.

The Gamma Phi Beta Alumnae Chapter of Columbus is set to assist with the recruitment process, according to Brooke Holtz, a fourth-year in international studies and previous president of the alumnae chapter. Halfway through her second year, Holtz transferred to OSU from John Carroll University, where she had joined the Zeta Omicron chapter of Gamma Phi Beta. “(The Gamma Phi Beta International Headquarters) gave us a schedule for alumnae that have time and want to volunteer and help out … Each year as (the OSU chapter) gets more established, the (OSU) girls will take over more and more,” Holtz said.

Jamie Schertz, president of OSU women’s fraternity Chi Omega and a fourth-year in marketing, said she’s looking forward to having Gamma Phi Beta as a new PHA partner, as well as having another opportunity for all of the women rushing.

OSU to draw community college students with new program BRANDON MERRIMAN Lantern reporter merriman.65@osu.edu Ohio State is the first school in Columbus to join a network of schools mediating the transfer of community college students in a national honors program to four-year universities.

The program, American Honors, gives admitted community college students access to honors courses as well as specialized advising. Students who complete the two-year program receive an associate degree with honors as well as assistance transferring to a four-year university like OSU. Chris Romer, president and co-founder of Quad Learning, the company that developed American Honors, said through the program, OSU can replicate the kind of articulation agreements it has with local community colleges like Columbus State. “(It) allows OSU to get additional applicants from top students around the country,” Romer said.

The program is currently offered through Ivy Tech Community College in Indiana and the Community Colleges of Spokane in Washington state. It is expanding to Mercer County Community College and Union County College, both in New Jersey, in Fall Semester 2014.

Dolan Evanovich, vice president for Strategic

American Honors is a way to market to places “where we maybe haven’t had the resources to go to.”

Dolan Evanovich Vice president for Strategic Enrollment Planning Enrollment Planning at Ohio State, said the program is a way to market to places “where we maybe haven’t had the resources to go to.”

While total tuition for students in the program costs about $3,000 per semester, including fees paid for the community college, Romer said the program doesn’t cost anything for the four-year partners like OSU. American Honors first approached OSU last year to speak with some academic officials, Evanovich said, and the agreement was settled sometime before a press release announcing the partnership Dec. 13.

Wayne Carlson, vice provost for undergraduate studies and dean of undergraduate education, referenced research that examines the difficulty of transferring from junior colleges, like those that offer American Honors courses, to four-year colleges or universities while figuring out the benefits for OSU from the partnership.

“Some four-year institutions would rather have first-year students coming in and going through their full four years at the institution, so they tend to not to admit as many students coming in through the community college process,” Carlson said. “That’s not been the case with Ohio State. We look holistically at a student’s application.”

But, Carlson said another issue was that community colleges courses are often not rigorous or welltaught enough to prepare a student to succeed in a four-year program.

For American Honors to work, Carlson said the program need schools to partner with so community college students won’t be negatively affected by attending a community college in spite of their honors work.

Russell Vannoy, an American Honors alumnus who now studies at Georgetown University and whose contact information was given to The Lantern by an American Honors representative, said American Honors courses are taught by professors at the community college, but class sizes are smaller and are usually set up as seminars as opposed to the large introductory lecture courses most community college students take.

American Honors also supplies an online classroom feature, allowing students to attend class from home.

Vannoy said although Georgetown was “picky” about the quality of his courses, his credits transferred and most lined up with requirements for his

four-year degree in international affairs with help from his American Honors counselor.

Carlson said the terms of the agreement say American Honors courses will be created to match the curriculum at schools in the four-year network, like OSU. In the future, students like Vannoy who apply to OSU should not have issues matching their credits to degree requirements.

Some OSU students felt that graduates of the American Honors program should get full credit for their classes.

“If they’ve done the work, the same courses, then it really isn’t special consideration,” said Spencer Carli, a second-year in computer science and engineering.

Chris Lovekin, a fourth-year in plant health management, remembered his own issues transferring to OSU from Cincinnati State Technical and Community College.

“My general education credits, which I would have expected to transfer … barely (any of them) did,” Lovekin said. “I’m happy to see that more colleges are taking this as a serious issue, because I think they’re losing out on some very quality students by not helping them.”

Carlson agreed, calling American Honors a “win-win.”

“If students applying to Ohio State are better prepared as result of a program like this, we’re all for it,” Carlson said.

Since posted on Apple’s YouTube page, the video had amassed more than 560,000 views as of Monday night.

Earlier, videos of the band’s halftime shows from the 2013 season have received as many as 9.5 million views, according to BuckeyeTV’s YouTube page as of Monday evening, while other various YouTube accounts’ videos have attracted nearly 15 million views.

“I don’t feel any different than I normally do,” Hoch said of the publicity. “The students are getting the recognition they deserve for all of their hard work, and it has been an absolute privilege to work with them and with this band staff.

“The band is bigger than any one of us, and it is the band that is the real ‘celebrity,’ not any individual staff member or person,” Hoch said.

The 2013 season was the first in which the band used iPads, Hoch said. The iPads were used by the band’s directors, student staff and squad leaders.

The band purchased 45 iPads for the 2013 season, with a projected cost of $25,000 that was funded by OSU’s sustainability office, Waters said.

The reception to using the iPads was “tremendously positive,” Hoch said, but it took some students time to warm up to the change.

When the idea for the implementation of iPads was presented, Naughton said he was against it.

Books from 1A place for students to go, and Barnes and Noble and Student Book Exchange are going to run out (of textbooks) a lot faster,” said Rebekah Martindale, a first-year in English education.

Martindale also said the decline of physical book stores could make switching classes difficult.

“I order textbooks online when I have time to, but the other day I switched all my classes so I went to UBX and SBX,” Martindale said.

Water from 1A

Ohio customers, according to the Columbus Department of Public Utilities website.

The Hap Cremean Water Plant, about 10 miles from campus, treats water from Hoover Reservoir, which has experienced an increased type of algae called anabaena. This algae produces a “pond-like” taste and odor, according to the Department of Public Utilities website.

Laura Young Mohr, spokeswoman for the city’s utilities department, said the city of Columbus and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency have been monitoring the city’s water and have determined that although the taste and odor are unpleasant, the water is safe.

Erin Strouse, a spokeswoman for the Ohio EPA, also said the water is acceptable as is.

“We can say with confidence that the water is safe to drink and use,” Strouse said. “It is simply an aesthetic issue.”

The Ohio EPA tested the water Dec. 19 and the Columbus Department of Public Utilities tests the water supply daily, Mohr said.

Although the EPA does not usually preform tests, it did “as a double check for toxins associated with algal blooms,” Mohr said in an email. “All were non-detection level.”

In addition to the “particularly challenging algal bloom,” changing temperatures and natural processes also add to the unpleasant taste, according to the Public Utilties website. The reservoir turnover, or mixing of the warmer and colder layers of the water because of changing seasonal temperatures, has also altered the taste and odor of the water.

“We can’t say how long this will go on due to much of it being under Mother Nature’s control, but we will keep doing everything we can as long as it does continue,” Mohr said.

In order to treat the water’s taste and odor, the city is treating the water with five times the usual amount of carbon normally used, according to the Department of Public Utilities website.

That amount is “as much carbon as can be added that will have any effect,” according to the Department of Public Utilities website. Because of the specific type of algae, only about 60 percent of the odor and taste is being successfully removed, the website said.

Sorority from 2A the recruitment process seems to increase, which is a wonderful sign that Greek Life at Ohio State is expanding,” Schertz said in an email. “It is encouraging to know that more women will be able to join a sorority this year.”

More than 1,100 women registered for PHA recruitment this year, OSU Sorority and Fraternity Life coordinator Kate Butler said, about the same number as last year, which was a record number at the time. There are more than 2,000 women in PHA chapters, according to the Sorority and Fraternity Life website.

Joining a new sorority offers advantages not afforded by joining the ranks of a more established chapter, said Kelsi Doerrer, a first-year in health sciences who is going through recruitment.

“It would be pretty cool to join a brand new sorority. Hearing people talk about it after the (recruitment) meeting, a lot of people were excited about it … It attracts me because it doesn’t have a set group of girls in it yet, so it can be whatever we make it,” Doerrer said.

Gamma Phi Beta also offers an opportunity for older students interested in joining Greek Life who would usually be overlooked by sororities, said Maria Nagel, a fourth-year in international business, hospitality management, and humanitarian services and liberal arts who has a year of school left.

“Being 21 years old, it didn’t seem right to join a sorority because mostly they want freshmen — I felt discouraged about that,” Nagel said. “When I found out that (Gamma Phi Beta) was accepting all ages and my friend (from the University of Cincinnati chapter) recommended me, it made me think I might want to be a part of it.”

Nagel met with Yetter in November to learn more about the recruitment process.

A season later, however, Naughton called the use of iPads “the future of marching band.”

“The plan is to have all band students using them next year,” Hoch said.

The ability of every member to have an iPad will be made possible by a $25,000 donation from a private donor, Barta said.

He said he is confident the band could still have produced shows of the same caliber without using iPads, however.

“The shows aren’t a result of the iPads,” Barta said.

“It’s just a little bit easier now. It’s a different way of doing what we’ve always done.”

Waters agreed.

“The iPads are not marching and playing the shows,” Waters said. “It still comes down to the students.”

The commercial, filmed in November 2013, required “everyone involved” with the band to sign a non-disclosure agreement with Apple, Naughton said.

Band members appearing in the commercial were also required to temporarily join the Screen Actors Guild for legal reasons, Naughton said, though he said he couldn’t discuss costs because of a nondisclosure agreement.

Hoch said no other companies have approached the band about appearing in commercials.

Kirsten Long, a second-year in business, said when she found out she needed a textbook, she typically would walk to University Book Exchange or Student Book Exchange to get the book quickly.

“I liked that you were able to shop around,” Long said.

The closing of these stores has left an open space for other tenants to move in, however, Wade did not disclose who those potential renters are.

“We’ve talked with several national retailers who have expressed interest in the space,” Wade said.

So far, the additional carbon costs approximately $10,000 each day, according to the website. This week marks two months of additional carbon treatment.

“We are now around the $600,000 mark,” Mohr said.

Strouse said Columbus officials are doing all they can.

“The city has been doing everything it can to fix this issue,” Strouse said. “The staff is aware of the issues and have highly trained operators addressing the problem.”

Some OSU students said they aren’t concerned about the taste. “(The water) tastes pretty bitter, but I heard from people that it’s not dangerous, so I’m not too worried about it,” said Sabina Braciak, a third-year in marketing.

She said she sympathizes with the effects the taste of the water has had on the food industry though. As a server in a restaurant, she said she has dealt with the complaints of many customers who blame the restaurant for the bad taste, and Braciak said the taste of the water has even affected fountain drinks.

Brandon Holt, a second-year in sport industry, though, said he cares about the taste and odor.

“I’m passionate about my water,” he said. “There should be no aftertaste. If there’s an aftertaste, there’s something wrong.”

In addition to continuing treatments, freezing temperatures could help the abnormal taste of Columbus’ water supply, Mohr and Strouse both said.

Although last week brought extremely cold temperatures, the temperature swings are not helping the algal growth in the reservoir, Mohr said.

“A longer cold spell would be beneficial to kill off the algae,” she said. “Actually seeing some ice on Hoover would be a beautiful thing to us at this point.”

Temperatures fell as low as minus 9 degrees Jan. 6 and 7. All of OSU’s campuses were closed because of the weather those two days.

The city has received more than 1,700 calls complaining of the taste over the past two months, Mohr said.

“Some report it is getting better but I don’t think our staff believes we are on the other side of this event yet,” Mohr said.

“They’re waiting until the whole formal recruitment is over so those that don’t want to go through (the formal recruitment process) can go to theirs.

Whoever doesn’t get a bid or drops out or whatever can also go to (Gamma Phi Beta),” Nagel said.

“They’re starting from scratch and they want to be able to have senior traditions and all the different grades. They want to implement those here by creating a full sorority class.”

Third-year in nutrition and community health Samantha Francesconi said she hopes to become a member of the first class, after registering for and dropping out of recruitment in each of her first two years at OSU. “I thought being a third-year was too late to get involved in Greek Life, so when I heard they were coming to campus, I got really excited,” Francesconi said.

While the sorority is new to current students, it is not new to OSU. Gamma Phi Beta was once a part of OSU’s Greek system but was forced to disband in 1967 because of a lack of interest after 16 years on campus, Whitney Brady, director of sorority growth for the Gamma Phi Beta International Sorority, told The Lantern last spring.

The sorority was given another chance in April when the PHA voted in favor of bringing it back, starting with Spring Semester 2014 formal recruitment, with housing to be established by fall 2014.

“It’s our standard extension (recolonization) process. There’s a certain way we do things,” Yetter said.

Francesconi said she’s intrigued by the possibility of joining the new chapter.

“It’s a good opportunity to join and be a founding member of a sorority,” Francesconi said. “I feel like I’m settled and ready to take on a challenge.”

eric Seger Sports editor seger.25@osu.edu At any level of basketball, when a team needs a key bucket or big play down the stretch, it typically gets the ball to its best player and lets him take the lead to victory.

Such a leader is vital at both ends of the floor, having the ability to come up with the key defensive play or knock down a potential game-winner.

But what happens when your go-to guy becomes such a liability that he might not be the best option to be on the floor come crunch time?

Welcome to the dilemma that is Ohio State junior forward LaQuinton Ross.

Ross led all Buckeyes with 22 points and seven rebounds in an 84-74 loss to then-No. 20 Iowa, but his five turnovers and other mental errors cost OSU, who dropped from No. 3 to No. 11 after back-to-back losses, when it needed him most.

“Obviously we need LaQuinton to play well. He had the two fouls on rebounds where he shoved the guy,” coach Thad Matta said following the loss to the Hawkeyes. “We needed him to take and make some big shots, handle the ball a little bit better.”

With his team clinging to a 65-64 lead with 5:05 to play, Ross air mailed a 3-pointer and turned the ball over on consecutive possessions.

Iowa took the lead back for good and send OSU to its first loss at the Schottenstein Center since

Feb. 10, 2013 against then-No. 1 Indiana.

Senior guard Aaron Craft said after the loss that a reason for the team’s offensive struggles at times is because the guys on the floor might not all be on the same page.

“We’re at our best when we’re connected. You can hear that when we’re talking, you can see that on offense and for stretches in both these past two games we haven’t been connected,” Craft said. “We’ve had stretches where we have been. It’s very easy to see when you go back and watch the film, the times when we are and the times when we aren’t. We really have to minimize the times that we aren’t.”

Ross said his main concern is making sure he’s in position to score.

“I try to do what I can to help the team win. That’s it,” Ross said after the loss. “Scoring is what I do to help contribute to this team, so that’s what I try to do.”

In OSU’s game prior to Iowa — a 72-68 overtime loss at the hands of then No. 5 Michigan State — Ross was nowhere to be found, scoring just five points and playing the least minutes of any of the five starters.

It’s clear Ross is a scorer (he leads the team with an averaage 13.6 points per game), but Matta’s teams are predicated on defense, and in a game like the one against the Spartans when OSU fell behind 55-38 with eight minutes to play, defensive stops are needed. Ross,

OSU men’s lacrosse ‘excited’ for 2014 campaign Brett Amadon Lantern reporter amadon.2@osu.edu Coming off a season in which the Ohio State men’s lacrosse team won the ECAC conference tournament championship and its first NCAA tournament game in five years, plenty of excitement surrounds the program regarding just how far the Buckeyes can go in 2014.

“We definitely have great potential,” senior goalie and captain Greg Dutton said. “We lost some key guys last year, but we’ve got some new guys in the mix, guys who are ready to step up. We are really excited for this season.”

However, when OSU takes the field this spring, it will do so without the program’s all-time leading goal scorer in attacker Logan Schuss, who graduated last spring. The Minnesota Swarm selected Schuss with first overall pick in the 2013 National Lacrosse League Entry Draft in September.

OSU coach Nick Myers, who is entering his sixth season with the team, said he believes it is going to take a team effort to replace Schuss.

“Offensively, we pride ourselves on sharing the ball,” Myers said. “We are going to need some guys to step into some different roles, but I don’t think it’s going to be one person that replaces Logan.”

One returning player is junior midfielder Jesse King, who was second on the team in points last

a chance to play with some of the best in the world,” Myers said about King’s experience. “He knows he is going to have a lot more attention from opponents and defenses, but I think he is up for that challenge.”

Offensively, OSU returns four players who scored more than 20 points — King, sophomore attacker Carter Brown, junior midfielder Turner Evans and junior midfielder David Planning — to a team that went 13-4 last season, including 7-2 in conference play.

OSU is ranked No. 7 in the “Inside Lacrosse” preseason poll, the first time the Buckeyes have been in the preseason top 10. The Buckeyes are also set to feature two Preseason First Team All-Americans for the first time in program history in King and senior defenseman Joe Meurer, who was selected with the 10th overall pick by the Florida Launch in the 2014 MLL Collegiate Draft Friday.

Still, despite the talent OSU returns to the squad, Meurer said his team is not the best they can be quite yet.

“We’ve still got a lot of work to do,” Meurer said.

“As January progresses, we will definitely continue to build the blocks that we need to be the team that we want to be.”

The Buckeyes are set to open the season Feb. 9 when they travel to Baltimore to take on No. 14 Johns Hopkins.

Freshman forward Marc Loving (2) attempts a layup during a game against Iowa Jan. 12 at the Schottenstein Center.

OSU lost, 84-74.

In college sports, programs have to constantly focus on the future.

With the short shelf life of collegiate athletes — four full years of play maximum — programs have to always be spinning things forward or they risk falling behind.

For the No. 11 Ohio State men’s basketball team (15-2, 2-2), the future is now.

Despite having a starting lineup that consists of three juniors and two seniors, freshman forward Marc Loving is beginning to make a name for himself.

The Toledo, Ohio, native has started the season averaging 13.4 minutes and seven points per game, often coming off the bench for junior forward LaQuinton Ross.

Loving has been a hard worker since he arrived on campus this past summer, OSU coach Thad Matta said.

“I love Marc,” Matta said after Ohio State’s 79-62 victory against North Dakota State Dec. 14. “From the day he showed up here in June, he’s had a great way about him. He has a lot of energy in practice, he has a lot of energy in doing things.”

Against NDSU, Loving totaled 12 points, the second best output of his brief OSU career. His career high came against Nebraska — an 84-53

Buckeye win — when Loving scored 13 points in 17 minutes played.

After the game against the Cornhuskers, Loving said being a player who comes off the bench means he has to come into the game and help in any way he can.

“We just try to bring a lot of energy to the game,” Loving said. “We feeling like our energy off the bench can affect the game in a major way.”

Since Big Ten play began, Matta has been putting Loving on the court more often, with his average minutes per game going up to 16.5.

This has also seen Loving’s scoring increase to average of 9.5 points a game.

Loving has also seen significant playing time in OSU’s big games, with the Buckeyes’ two road games this season — Nov. 16 against then-No. 17 Marquette and Jan. 7 against then-No. 5 Michigan State — being the two games in which he has played the most. Loving played 22 minutes against Marquette and 23 against MSU. Although in the Buckeyes recent home loss to then-No. 20 Iowa, Loving only totaled 10 minutes.

Against the Spartans, Loving was also on the floor for most of the late second half comeback attempt and overtime period.

Matta said during Monday’s Big Ten teleconference that Loving has been playing well and Matta expects the freshman to continue to grow.

Ousting of Chief Wahoo disappointing for Cleveland fans Sports Columnist

For those of you who are Cleveland Indians fans, the following, while not unexpected, is becoming an unfortunate reality.

Chief Wahoo might very well be on his way out of Cleveland James Grega Jr. forever. grega.9@osu.edu In recent years, the Indians organization has come under fire from the Native American population for its Chief Wahoo logo. Some say Chief Wahoo is racist and should be retired, never to be used again as a representation for the Cleveland ball club. While I understand the reasoning behind it, I am not for it.

Growing up in the suburbs of Cleveland in the early to mid- 1990’s, my family and I were die-hard Indians fans. My father split season ticket packages with his co-workers so we could see former players Manny Ramirez, Jim Thome, Kenny Lofton and others dominate the American League Central and all the

while, the team sported the Chief Wahoo logo.

In recent years, the Indians have noticeably started to phase out Chief Wahoo and incorporate a more conservative block-C on their uniforms. As recent as 2011, the Indians demoted Chief Wahoo from their away ball caps and introduced a red block-C on the traditional navy blue cap.

Chief Wahoo still appears on the home ball caps and on the sleeve of the game jerseys. However, now even the batting helmets, which had never donned anything but Chief Wahoo, are beginning to be overrun by the rather bland block-C. The Indians are not the only professional sports organization under fire for their controversial Native American representation.

The Washington Redskins of the NFL have also been heavily scrutinized for their portrayal of their nationally-known Redskin logo, which shows a more realistic (compared to the cartoonish Chief Wahoo) maroon-faced Native American with feathers running down the back of his head.

While I am sure we can all understand the uncomfortable position the Indians organization must be dealing with, I have to think that ultimately the organization would not want to disappoint their fans.

If that is the case, we can hope Chief Wahoo will hang around a little longer.

“He’s ready to play at the highest level,” Matta said. “He’s been a consistent player and on the rise since day one.”

The change from high school to college can be humbling to many as their production goes down, something Loving said he has experienced as well.

“Last year, I think any time I had the ball was a good shot,” Loving said Dec. 17 to the media.

“But now we swing the ball, we get the ball from one side of the floor to the other pretty fast. So it’s hard for defenses to close out. We’ll have a lot of open shots, a lot of ball reversals that will give us open opportunities.”

Loving and guard Kam Williams are the lone freshmen on the squad, with guard Amedeo Della Valle as the only sophomore. With only three underclassmen on the squad, OSU might look to these players more in the near future, as they have already began making waves.

Next up, the Buckeyes are set to hit the road to take on Big Ten rival Minnesota (13-4, 2-2) Thursday at 9 p.m.

however, said missing a part of the comeback against MSU was a motivator to improve.

“I don’t think it was because I watched my teammates out there. I think (freshman forward) Marc (Loving) did a great job at the end of the game. Seeing him put in work like that as a freshman, that was good to see,” Ross said. “They made a huge comeback at the end of the game, so I didn’t feel no type of way about sitting out at the end of that game. Today I think I wanted to redeem myself from last game. It was a bad performance, (and) I think any player would want to do that if they came in off a bad game.”

The junior from Jackson, Miss., has scored in double figures 12 times this season, but in the remaining five, he is averaging a meager 4.2 points. That could raise questions about OSU’s supposed top scoring threat being inconsistent.

It’s not just about one guy though, Matta said.

“We have to have a certain level of consistency in everything that we’re doing — offensively, defensively, transition,” Matta said.

“Those are things that across the board, not just

LaQuinton, everybody has to do your job and do it with great energy and great focus on making everybody on the floor around you better.”

Whether it’s Ross, the coaches or the team as a whole, the Buckeyes need to get it figured out quickly, with a Thursday visit to Minnesota (13-4, 2-2) looming.

“It doesn’t get any easier for us. We go on the road here starting on Thursday,” Craft said. “A lot to be learned from this game.”

Tipoff between the Buckeyes and Golden Gophers is set for 9 p.m.

Rock ‘n’ roll band The Whigs is scheduled to perform at The Basement 7 p.m. Friday.

Rock band set to whig out in Columbus performance Amanda ETCHISON Lantern reporter etchison.4@osu.edu The band formerly called “maybe the best unsigned band in America” by “Rolling Stone” is taking the stage in Columbus this week.

Formed in 2002, The Whigs is a three-man rock ‘n’ roll group, consisting of lead singer and guitarist Parker Gispert, drummer Julian Dorio and bassist Timothy Deaux.

The original trio of band members, which consisted of Hank Sullivant on bass instead of Deaux, began writing and performing music while completing their undergraduate studies at the University of Georgia.

“Parker (Gispert) and I went to the same junior high and high school together in Atlanta,” Dorio said. “It wasn’t until my sophomore year, when (Gispert) started as a freshman that we were hanging out more and just shared a lot of the same interests.”

Dorio said he and Gispert found shared interests in their musical tastes.

“A lot of the music that was popular at the time, we started growing less interested in,” Dorio said. “We just shared a lot in common and started writing songs together. That happened almost for six months before we met Hank (Sullivant).”

After meeting Sullivant, The Whigs’ original bass player, the band began to search for opportunities to perform locally.

“We were writing and working on this material, trying to get enough to play a show … finally I think we felt we were ready,” Dorio said.

The band’s name, which Dorio said had originally been a result of a last-minute brainstorming session prior to the group’s first performance, stuck after the success of The Whigs’ first show.

“We played one show, and it was a great show and a great night,” Dorio said. “Everyone we knew showed up and the place was packed, and (The Whigs) has been our band name ever since.”

Dorio said the band has grown closer throughout the years of touring together and producing albums.

“Parker and I have known each other since junior high, but … I think at a certain point (the band) almost transitioned into family,” Dorio said.

“We do everything together. Good and bad things happen out here … (and if) we put them all together, we just have years and years of experience. I think that is a special bond that we have.”

Dorio said an underlying devotion to “mastering their craft as musicians” is what has contributed to the band’s success.

“The same little dream that was in us when we were kids, when we just dreamt of being in a rock and roll band … I don’t think that’s really gone away,” Dorio said.

Some students at Ohio State said they appreciate The Whigs’ sound.

Danny Stelson, a first-year in engineering, had not previously heard of The Whigs, but enjoyed the band’s song “Right Hand On My Heart.”

He said The Whigs’ sound was unexpected.

“Normally, I listen to a lot of alternative or indie music, so (The Whigs’ music) kind of plays right into that (genre),” Stelson said. “The vocals … seemed smoother than I expected to go along with the instrumentals, but I like it. I think it works really well.”

Since the band’s first independent album release in 2005, The Whigs have released four studio albums. Dorio said the band’s fifth album, “Modern Creation,” is set for release April 22.

Columbus audiences can expect to hear several tracks from this new album during The Whigs’ performance at The Basement Friday, Dorio said.

“It is fun to go to Columbus to share a couple of new songs,” he said. “It’s fun, it’s kind of like we’re like right at the beginning of another cycle, which is a really exciting time.”

Dorio said The Whigs have played in Columbus many times in the past, and it is one of the band’s favorite venue cities.

“We’ve played in Columbus a lot,” Dorio said. “Ohio has always had great fans. And if you give them a good show, I feel like they reciprocate that. It’s always one of our favorite cities, and we’ll always come to Columbus.”

Marissa Luther, marketing director for PromoWest Productions, said The Whigs’ past performances at The Basement have “generally (sold) very well.”

Luther explained that the multiple music venues in Columbus allow for various artists and bands to visit the city.

“Columbus brings all artists,” she said. “We’re not really specific to one typical genre. We like to bring all kinds of music to Columbus.”

Doors open at 7 p.m. Friday and tickets are $12 for general admission, available through Ticketmaster. Red Feathers is set to open.

Author Piper Kerman, whose book ‘Orange is the New Black’ inspired the original Netflix series of the same name, spoke to OSU students in a lecture sponsored by OUAB Jan. 13. at the Ohio Union.

Piper Kerman talks women, prison Sallee Ann Ruibal Lantern reporter ruibal.1@osu.edu Stores are bringing in racks of swimsuits amidst snowfall.

Magazines prep for big spring issues, flashing headlines of what styles are “in,” which colors are “out.” Amidst all that, writer Piper Kerman spoke to Ohio State students Tuesday to say orange really is the new black for women.

Kerman said the number of women in prison has grown 800 percent in the last three decades.

“The person wearing an orange jumpsuit is now more likely to be a woman,” Kerman said.

Kerman is the author of memoir “Orange is the New Black: My Year in a Women’s Prison,” which was adapted into the popular Netflix original series called “Orange is the New Black.”

As a young woman, Kerman was involved with a “sophisticated, older woman,” who, she said was part of a drug ring. Kerman once transported a large sum of money internationally for the ring.

After the trip she ended the relationship and went on to live her life.

‘Breaking Bad’ cast shines, J-Law glows at Globes TESSA DITIRRO Lantern reporter ditirro.4@osu.edu Two stars shined brighter than all the Golden Globes handed out Sunday night.

Back by popular demand for the second year in a row, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler did not disappoint their audience as the hostesses with the mostesses.

The 71st annual awards featured actors, actresses and a few musicians from Hollywood’s elite on the red carpet with nominations for their latest work.

Poehler and Fey’s skit was refreshingly simple, poking fun at the A-listers without being crude.

One of the most memorable jokes of the evening was when the hilarious duo poked fun at George Clooney, with, “George Clooney would rather float away into space and die than spend one more minute with a woman his own age.”

One sensitive joke of the night was when Fey and Poehler opened the show by referencing Lee Daniels’ “The Butler,” taking a jab at the Golden Globes for snubbing this 2013 film.

The awards foreshadow possible Oscar front-runner films, including “American Hustle,” “12 Years a Slave,” “Gravity” and “Dallas Buyers Club.”

For television, “Breaking Bad” cleaned up, winning Best Television Series in the drama category and Best Performance By An Actor In A Television Series, also in the drama category, for Bryan Cranston.

Jennifer Lawrence won the first award of the night for her supporting role in “American Hustle.”

Cate Blanchett won Best Performance By An Actress In A Motion Picture for drama, a well-deserved nod for her performance in “Blue Jasmine,” beating out Sandra Bullock’s performance in “Gravity.”

“I put that experience in the lockbox way back in the drawer,” Kerman said. “But consequences of our actions always come back to us at some point … In my case it was in the form of two federal agents.”

Almost a decade after committing the crime, Kerman entered a Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Conn.

Once released after serving 13 months, Kerman reflected on her experience. She noticed how race and class, motherhood and family, gender and power and friendship and empathy impacted inmates’ lives.

It was “an involuntary community but a community nonetheless,” she said.

She wanted to share the stories of the women inside in order for people to think more about the prison system, what it’s like and who is in it. Kerman is now calling for reform to keep non-violent criminals out of prison. She suggested increasing education, reducing drug sentencing, interventions that don’t make prison the first step and handling mental illness and substance abuse in the public health system.

Breanna’s

Guide to College Fashion

Set resolutions to start year off on fashionable, colorful foot BREANNA SOROKA For The Lantern soroka.15@osu.edu It’s January, and New Year’s resolutions abound. You know the drill: it’s time to hit up the gym more than once a month, actually do some studying during the semester and search for the man of your dreams. Of course, three weeks later, many resolutions become null and void — life happens, and they get pushed out of our minds.

This year, why not make some fashion resolutions you can actually stick with? Not only will these help you feel more accomplished, but they can help motivate you to transform other aspects of your life as well.

Be more (or less) colorful After doing a major closet clean-out, I realized that a huge portion of my clothing is grounded in the neutral territory. Even though my closet is absolutely bursting with a variety of pieces, my wardrobe seems so infinitesimal because of the similarities in color. In order to refresh the clothes I already have, I’ve resolved to add at least one piece of color — whether it be an accessory or actual article of clothing — to every outfit I wear. This resolution can also work in the opposite direction, by including more neutrals with an overly bright wardrobe. Not only will this make it seem like you own more clothes than you actually do, but it also offers you a chance to harness your creativity when creating outfits.

Cut, copy, paste Have you ever flipped through a magazine and fallen in love with an outfit you know you’ll never be able to afford? There’s an easy fix — resolve to use these outfits as inspiration for your own fashion choices. Just because you don’t own the exact pieces doesn’t mean you can’t make a creative adaptation.

Rather than striving to recreate something piece-by-piece, focus on the silhouette of the outfit, the colors or even the pattern and fabric combinations. Not only does this allow your creative genius to fly further, but there could be so many outfit possibilities you’d never think of without first seeing them on someone else.

Branch out Are you stuck in a legging-and-crewneck rut because of the cold weather? While it seems easy to just continue with this theme when you roll out of bed every morning, you’re missing out on so many great clothing opportunities by not

Refresh a monotone wardrobe with a dash of color this year. trying new things with your outfits. You can wear something just as comfortable and snuggly that looks like you put so much more effort into, like jeggings and a nice sweater. This can also be something as simple as trading out your usual heavy-duty boots for a pair of booties (weather-permitting). This easy switch changes up the entire feel of an outfit and can lead to even bigger and more outgoing changes. Start small, and you’ll eventually be making bold and daring fashion choices.

her really opened my eyes to prison reform which I’d never cared about before but it’s so important.”

The show made an impression on Dave Howcroft, a graduate student in linguistics, “I found the show powerful in that it addresses social issues and tells stories that don’t get enough media representation,” Howcroft said.

Kerman closed her talk with advice on our treatment of other people.

“Everyone who goes through the system should not just be judged on their worst day, but also on their best.”

Kerman said she was lucky to have strong connections to the outside world while in prison. She had a stable family and job waiting for her. Most women, she said, are not that lucky.

“Empathy is absolutely essential to bringing people home from prison,” she said.

Kerman’s memoir and the Netflix adaption allowed those stories and issues to the forefront of some peoples minds, including Sarah Makepeace, a first-year in speech and hearing science.

“I hardcore watched the show in 24 hours,” said Makepeace. “Listening to

Challenge yourself In order to make sure you’re actually working toward accomplishing these resolutions, setting challenge days for yourself can keep you on track. If there’s a day when you know you have more time to get ready in the morning before class, it might be useful to make this a “branching out” day for your fashion choices. That way, you won’t be rushing to think of something new to wear and end up starting your day unhappy with your outfit. Even if you only challenge yourself once a week, at least you’re making progress with your fashion resolutions.

So if you’re the type of person who falls off of the resolution wagon three weeks after the new year begins, try something a little bit different this year with fashion resolutions. What do you have to lose?
