In his 3rd State of the Union, President Barack Obama spoke about college debt, job growth and more.

Danny Restivo Lantern reporter restivo.7@osu.edu With a less than stellar economy and an election year upon him, President Barack Obama used part of his third State of the Union address Tuesday night to challenge rising college tuition and make students want to cheer.

The President opened his speech by thanking those who served in the armed forces, before shifting his focus to the economy and job growth, two subjects that are concerning for many Ohio residents.

Obama also presented the nation with his blueprint for economic revival. The plan was titled,

open today. But to prepare for the jobs of tomorrow, our commitment to skills and education has to start earlier,” Obama said.

Many Ohio State students gathered at various locations around campus to listen as Obama laid out a blueprint for America in 2012. During the speech, some student leaders voiced their support for the President.

“I’m excited by it. He’s striking a lot of chords that I personally care about, and I think a lot of students care about too,” said Mike Triozzi, a fourth-year in history and president of the College Democrats at OSU. Triozzi and a crowd of more than 40 College Democrats watched the President’s speech at Hang

Repairs could water down Rec Sports reserve Sarah Stemen Oller reporter stemen.66@osu.edu Ohio State Recreational Sports could be using $7 million from its reserve-fund budget to replace tiles falling off a swimming pool at the McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion.

Don Stenta, director of recreational sports, said he is not sure why the tiles are coming off the sides of the pool, but he said the university is in the process of finding out.

“It could be the materials, it could be the adhesive backing on tiles, it could be the concrete, it could have been the humidity or it could have been contractor error — I have no idea,” he said.

Stenta said the project has been quoted as high as $14 million, and that Rec Sports has specifically set aside $7 million because they are splitting the cost with the Department of Athletics.

The agreement Rec Sports has with the Department of Athletics splits the cost of all maintenance and construction in the McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion.

Built just 7 years ago, McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion has seen recent deterioration of a swimming pool and its ceiling. OSU is in the process of repairs.

The McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion, built in 2005, also needed its ceiling repainted, costing Rec Sports $2 million, Stenta said.

“Paint chips were falling off the ceiling into the pools,” Stenta said.

“That was destroying the experience for students.”

If the problem is contractor error, Stenta said he is not sure if the university is leaning toward a lawsuit.

“I’m not certain about what will happen in terms of litigation and those sorts of things,” Stenta said.

“Sometimes one of the university’s remedies in problems like this is to

take a look at who is responsible and those sort of things.”

Some students said they feel the repairs are more than worth it for the university.

Josh Schechter, a second-year in accounting, said he swam in the facility in high school and the university should spend as much as they need to repair it.

“I think it is one of the most sophisticated athletic facilities in the nation,” Schechter said. “To keep Ohio State a top-notch competitor, we should spend the money and make the changes.

Molly Ranz-Calhoun, assistant vice president for Student Life, said the original tile subcontractor for the university was Westport Pools.

“We have not yet determined who will make the repairs,” Ranz-Calhoun said. “We are still working on those details.”

Westport Pools, based in St. Louis, did not return The Lantern’s phone calls for comment.

Stenta said he wants to stress that

“An America Built to Last,” and laid out Obama’s plans to restart the economy.

“An economy that’s built to last – an economy built on American manufacturing, American energy, skills for American workers,” Obama wrote in the blueprint.

Obama said innovation is at the root of American history and is key to fixing the economy.

“An economy built to last is one where we encourage the talent and ingenuity of every person in this country,” Obama said. “That means women should earn equal pay for equal work. It means we should support everyone who’s willing to work; and every risk-taker and entrepreneur who aspires to become the next Steve Jobs.”

Obama said part of reviving the economy involves reforming education.

Many students living on North Campus have been experiencing wireless Internet issues since the beginning of the quarter, and few answers have been provided.

After nearly a month of sporadic issues, the source of the complications throughout the residence hall has been identified by the Office of the Chief Information Officer and a solution has now been implemented.

John Link, director of technology services, said the problem was local to wireless-access points on North Campus. “(The problem was) a software-related issue on a wireless controller that manages

the wireless access points for multiple buildings on North Campus,” Link said.

When Winter Quarter began, there was a significant increase in the number of support tickets the OCIO team was receiving regarding the residence hall network, ResNet. Troubleshooting immediately began by working with hardware vendors to narrow down the location of the problems and the general hours that they were taking place.

Mike Green, senior director of OCIO infrastructure, said taking care of the problem was a concern for the team.

“The ability of faculty, staff and students to access information via wireless is a top priority for the OCIO. We are

campus Muslim students react to Republican race Ayan Sheikh Lantern reporter sheikh.51@osu.edu While Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul has yet to win a primary race, some Muslim students at Ohio State say they believe the Texas congressman is the right candidate for them.

Paul came in fourth place in the South Carolina primary, second in the New Hampshire caucuses and third in the Iowa caucuses, but the race still seems wide open.

“I feel he stands for the direction the country ought to be headed,” said Meredith Spano, thirdyear in Arabic and Middle East studies.

Spano also said she believes Paul’s core principles are aligned with those of Islam.

Ismail Adan, a third-year in mechanical engineering, said it was Paul’s “consistency” that lead him to support the Texas congressman.

“The main reason to why I’m supporting the man is because he seems consistent, he’s for people’s rights and what more could you really want?” Adan said.

Aside from Paul’s consistency, Adan said he agreed with Paul’s foreign policy.

“This country is a major player in the world and foreign policy is really important. I agree with his approach to leave people alone and not try to bomb people for no reason,” Adan said.

Nathaniel Swigger, assistant professor of political science at OSU Newark, said one of the reasons some American Muslims support Paul is because of his stance on sanctions against Iran and the Iraq war.

“He’s very much opposed to military intervention and he’s the only Republican in the field who takes those traditions,” Swigger said. “The other candidates have been quite open about using military force in Iran for example.”

Paul, whose foreign policy is often labeled as “isolationist,” said during the Iowa caucuses that U.S. sanctions against Iran are “acts of war.”

Similarly, Paul’s foreign policy includes cutting aid to Israel, withdrawing troops from Afghanistan and reducing overseas defense spending.

Swigger said war is the only foreign policy that Americans pay attention to.

“If we’re shooting people or if we’re being shot at then that gets our attention,” Swigger said. “Short of that, trade relationships, diplomatic relationships are simply not going to move many voters.”

Other GOP candidates like Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich, armed themselves by appointing high-ranking officials as advisers for their foreign policy teams. Some members of the Romney and Gingrich foreign policy team worked under the Bush administration.

Despite efforts made by Romney and Gingrich to shed light on their foreign policies, Swigger said Americans are less concerned with who is appointed as a foreign adviser.

“I think there is a tendency to overestimate the effect of putting so-and-so from the Bush administration on,” Swigger said. “(When) most voters really don’t know much about who presidential advisers are or what they stand up for.”

Romney’s spokespeople did not returned emails from The Lantern.

Mohammed Mohammed, a fourth-year in logistics management, said he is not buying Romney’s policies because he believes Romney is a “flip-flopper.”

“He would support one thing and then years would pass and then he would flip around and be completely against it,” Mohammed said. “Unlike Ron Paul … (who) I feel is a strong candidate because he sticks to his words.”

Shammas Malik, a third-year in international studies and political science, said it’s Paul’s domestic policy he doesn’t agree with.

Republican nominee hopeful Ron Paul has the support of many Muslim students on campus.

“His foreign policy may make sense compared to the George Bush policy of invading countries but still his thought process isn’t entirely coherent,” Malik said. “I don’t think it’s sensible at all.”

The Lantern was unable to reach Paul’s spokespeople for comment.

Swigger said young American Muslims might tend to focus on foreign issues because of the familial and cultural ties they share with the specific regions. “(American Muslims) are slightly more likely to be first- or second-generation immigrants,” Swigger said. “And therefore have a lot of political or familial ties to the region slightly more than the average voters.”

Job fair offers prospects Dani Wedemeyer Lantern reporter wedemeyer.9@osu.edu With the unemployment rate in Ohio at 8.1 percent, many Ohio State students are trying to avoid the growing number of jobless college graduates.

To help students find unique opportunities for internships and employment, the Summer Internship Roundtable was held Tuesday at the Ohio Union. The annual fair is organized by Arts and Sciences Career Services to help students network and find internships and jobs.

Companies at the fair ranged from media groups like the Dispatch Broadcast Group, to banks such as Huntington Bancshares, Inc., to retail companies like Express, part of the Limited Brands, to The Hershey Company and The Walt Disney Company. Some companies were offering internships, but many were looking for students to hire full time if they are graduating soon.

Michelle Tedrick, a fourth-year in communication, said she came to the fair looking for an internship for after she graduates.

“I talked to inVentiv Communications, they work in more like pharmaceutical sales, so I talked to them about some positions since I’m actually graduating in the spring,” Tedrick said. “They do offer internships, they said, for people who are not in school so I could participate in a summer internship.”

Brandy Williams, a career adviser for Arts and Sciences Career Services, ran a booth to field questions from students and assist them in getting started in the job hunt.

Williams said students should market themselves to employers and know what they have to offer, and although preparation prior to the fair is important, it might be even more important to be confident and communicate themselves well.

She said students should avoid asking questions they could have already answered had they looked at the company’s website.

“Make sure you follow up, it doesn’t just end here,” Williams said. “There’s a lot that goes on after the event. They need to follow up with employers that they spoke with here today.”

Matt Verdelli, representing The Hershey Company, said they are looking to hire people for sales positions, but emphasized they look to hire those who can move into higher leadership positions.

“What we’re really looking for are the future leaders of our company,” Verdelli said. “We’re looking for somebody to start off where most of our vice presidents did and work their way up into leadership roles, to be the next CEO.”

Nick Height, district manager, and Nikki Mills, training manager, for Raising Canes (RCO Limited), both graduated from OSU in 2008.

Mills said she planned to take time off after graduating but was given the opportunity for a management position at Raising Canes and has been employed there ever since. She and Height highly recommend utilizing FutureLink, an arts and sciences website for students to post resumes for jobs and internships, where Mills sometimes looks for new people.

“For anybody who doesn’t want to put their resume out there and doesn’t like the kind of negative connotations of recruiters, it’s a great way (to get a job) because different types of organizations are trying to do their own research, and it’s a great way to get your name out there for an opening,” Height said.

Chelsey Salberg, a second-year in computer and information science, said she came to the fair specifically for internships in CIS and web design.

“I’ve actually been to the engineering fair and this is definitely more of like design and visuals. A lot of companies that do behind-the-scenes work,” Salberg said. “I just talked to the Mills (James) company, they’re really good about doing design and production and everything. The guy at Express actually works with the website and he was talking about the UI (User Interface). I would love to do stuff like that.”

Randy Dineen, internship adviser for the College of Arts and Sciences, said he and others reached out to employers about setting up booths at the fair. His main goal was to get a variety of companies.

“We try to pick a wide variety of employers, especially for an event like this. We tried to really broaden it out as much as we could with some corporate recruiters, some sports organizations, radio and TV organizations, some of the financial institutions,” Dineen said.

He said the university as a whole probably has more than 20 job and/or internship fairs annually.

Other fairs, like the government fair or February’s upcoming nonprofit fair, are niche fairs that will have a smaller group of employers and will attract different companies.

“First and foremost, we just want to try to connect students with employers,” Dineen said.

“Employers come to the event to recruit for either jobs or internships or possibly volunteer opportunities, so it’s just educating students on how to prepare for a career fair and doing our best to connect them with the right set of employers once they get here.”

Columbus set to start plan for recycling

Raising Canes (RCO Limited) representative Nikki Mills discusses internships at the Summer Internship Roundtable in the Ohio Union Performance Space at OSU in Columbus, Ohio, on Jan. 24.

Obama from 1A

The city of Columbus will begin providing free biweekly curbside recycling to all eligible households as a basic city service this year, which includes most off-campus housing.

“The mayor is really excited to finally be able to offer this,” said Erin Miller, environmental steward of Columbus Mayor Michael B. Coleman of Columbus.

“The university area has been really vocal and active in asking for this program.”

According to a press release from Coleman’s office, the program will be implemented in two-month increments starting with the first of five pick-up routes in late spring, ending with the last route in February 2013. The university district pickup will begin in December and includes 36,000 homes east of Kenny Road and west of Interstate 71. Pickup day for the university district will be Thursdays.

Miller said the program is part of the general fund of the city, and though free for residents and property owners, will cost the city $1.44 per household per month. There will be no additional tax increase from the program. The cost of the program will be offset by $13 million to $15 million savings in landfill-tipping fees over the first five years of the program, according to Coleman’s office.

“The green movement is part of our generation,” said Logan Dawson, a fourth-year in city and regional planning and off-campus community ambassador. “Recycling is something most of us have been doing for years. At a point it just becomes a routine and responsibility you have.”

Miller said all homes with four units or less will be eligible for the free program, and each unit or address within the home will receive its own 64-gallon recycling container roughly four to six weeks before collection starts.

Rumpke Consolidated Companies, Inc. will be providing the pickup services. The containers are to be put out on collection day wherever the units’ garbage is collected.

Jennifer Grimmer, a second-year in music education, said she supports the program, but is concerned that more bins behind houses could cause problems for already-crowded alley ways.

Dawson, however, said that these problems already exist.

“The way I see it, none of these issues would be new problems,” Dawson said. “Alleys are already crowded, dirty and trash-rich. Who knows what the homeless will do. They usually only take aluminum and it ends up in the same place, so really that’s

Over Easy on Neil Avenue. Obama for AmericaOhio sponsored the event.

Obama called on all states to make high school graduation requirements stricter.

“When students aren’t allowed to walk away from their education, more of them walk the stage to get their diploma,” Obama said. “So tonight, I call on every state to require that all students stay in high school until they graduate or turn eighteen.”

Obama acknowledged, however, that high school graduation was not the end to the problem. College affordability can be a big issue for college hopefuls.

“When kids do graduate, the most daunting challenge can be the cost of college,” Obama said. “At a time when Americans owe more in tuition debt than credit card debt, this Congress needs to stop the interest rates on student loans from doubling in July.”

Obama also called on Congress and universities to create more work-study programs.

“Give more young people the chance to earn their way through college by doubling the number of work-study jobs in the next five years,” Obama said.

Obama called on state governments to reduce the cost of higher education, and to make higher education a priority.

“It’s not enough for us to increase student aid. We can’t just keep subsidizing skyrocketing tuition; we’ll run out of money. States also need to do their part, by making higher education a higher priority in their budgets,” Obama said. “Colleges and universities have to do their part by working to keep costs down.”

In Gov. John Kasich’s two-year budget plan, tuition raises were capped at 3.5 percent for public universities, including OSU’s. In 2011, tuition for an in-state student was $8,856 for three quarters at OSU. “So let me put colleges and universities on notice: If you can’t stop tuition from going up, the funding you get from taxpayers will go down,” Obama said. “Higher education can’t be a luxury, it’s an economic imperative that every family in America should be able to afford.”

Aubrey Beltran, a first-year in public affairs, said when Obama said colleges that could not lower tuition would lose funding, she wanted to cheer. Beltran watched the speech at a watch party hosted by the Politics, Society and Law Scholars and the John Glenn Civic Leadership Council.

“I was really lucky enough to come here, but this is also ridiculously expensive,” Beltran said.

“It’s a great education and luckily Ohio has these amazing state schools … (But the tuition raises are) just ridiculous, it’s absolutely ludicrous, especially for state schools.”

Starting in December, Columbus will be sponsoring curbside recycling pickup for the off-campus area. what is important to me: that the materials actually get recycled. I’m not as concerned about how they get there.”

Miller said she doesn’t anticipate a problem in regards to student participation. The city will also be instituting educational programs around the five different routes to aid in maximum participation.

“We have a PowerPoint presentation that we can show people so we can talk at community organizations, but we’ve also talked about the potential for a door-to-door educational campaign,” Miller said.

She said the educational programs will start around the university district in late October.

Dawson said the off-campus community ambassadors haven’t discussed any specific plans to help educate students about the program, but hopes to see a possible event or marketing strategy from the ambassadors later this year.

Currently, off-campus residents can bring their recyclables to local drop boxes provided by the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio (SWACO).

The locations of the drop boxes can be found at SWACO’s website, SWACO.org.

studentvoice Staff prides itself on diversity, dialogue When an advertisement ran in Monday’s edition of The Lantern, our editorial staff was bombarded with dozens of emails and phone calls from outraged readers who were offended by the advertisement’s content. The ad in question was titled “Former Leaders of the Muslim Student Association (MSA): Where are they now?” and included a list of former MSA presidents who went on to become members of al-Qaida or al-Shabab. Below the list was a picture of a pamphlet which read, “Muslim hate groups on campus.”

But what many of these outraged readers did not understand is that, at our paper and many papers, there is a separation between the editorial staff and the sales staff. The editorial staff is solely in charge of the paper’s journalistic content. The sales staff handles the advertising content. The editorial

staff has no knowledge of the content of advertisements that run in the paper, nor do we have a say in which ads run, and likewise, the sales staff has no say in which stories we do or do not publish. This separation holds true not only for the controversial ad that ran Monday, but also for any ad published in The Lantern, and it exists to ensure that our readers receive the most objective content possible.

Because of the separation between the editorial and business sides, our staff saw the ad for the first time when we picked up copies of the paper Monday, just like our readers.

And we do not deny that the ad was incredibly offensive to Muslims and to OSU students in general. OSU prides itself on diversity. As students at OSU, we pride ourselves on embracing that diversity in our everyday life and as the staff at the paper of record for the university, we pride ourselves on

embracing that diversity in our work.

Our staff found the ad to be incredibly offensive and ignorant. We do not agree with the content of the ad and we are not happy that so many of our readers were hurt by its content.

But we, as a staff, also hold the right to free speech near and dear to our hearts. Though we do not endorse or agree with the views in the ad, we do believe that Daniel Greenfield, the author of the pamphlet pictured in the ad, has a right to his opinions.

While we would hope that America has moved past this ignorant way of thinking, this country was founded on certain core values, and the right to express your views, no matter how insulting they may be, is one of those values. Though we had no say in the matter, we do not question the sales staff’s decision to run this advertisement. The second The Lantern rejects an advertisement or other content

solely on the grounds that we do not agree with the views it expresses or that it might offend some people, our integrity as a journalistic organization will have been compromised because we will have denied someone the right that we invoke every single day — the right to free speech. Whether or not we agree with the advertisement or are offended by its content, which I assure you, we were, if the sales staff had rejected the ad, our readers would have been the losers in the long run.

Our responsibility as journalists is to bring our readers fair and objective stories, no matter how unpopular the views expressed in those stories might be. In order for us to continue to invoke our right to free speech every day, we cannot, in good conscience, support the suspension of that right for other people.

Statement about controversial ad in The Lantern Due to recent backlash from readers regarding a controversial advertisement from FrontPage Magazine, which ran in The Lantern on Jan. 23, 2012, the adviser to The Lantern provided the following statement regarding the decision to run the advertisement.

The Lantern advertising policy is that the “Lantern will not publish illegal advertising or the advertising of illegal products or services.

The Lantern reserves the right to reject advertising that denigrates individuals, groups or organizations based on race, gender, nationality, ethnicity, religion, mental or physical capacity, veteran’s status, age or sexual orientation.” In this, the adviser and co-chair of the publications committee agreed that the ad did not violate the policy.

Lantern not ‘anti-Islam’ despite ad LANTERN Columnist

AYAN SHEIKH sheikh.51@osu.edu

I consider myself to be a devout Muslim woman, and it hurts me dearly when I see people speak ill of a religion which I hold so dearly. Therefore, I understand when some, if not most Muslim students at Ohio

State were offended by the ad that ran in Monday’s paper.

However, I strongly believe the majority of students overreacted over the ad.

The title of the ad was “Former Leaders of the Muslim Student Association (MSA): Where are they now?” And the ad listed the names of several al-Qaida and al-Shabab members who were MSA presidents during their college careers. Then at the bottom of the ad was the name of the pamphlet, “Muslim Hate Groups on Campus.”

The ad, without a doubt, is controversial and offensive to Muslims, and several students have voiced their anger toward the ad by dedicating Facebook statuses and tweets to the ad.

Some of the Facebook statuses questioned The

Lantern’s judgment in choosing to run the ad. Others called The Lantern “hateful” and “anti-Islam.”

Others sent editors emails labeling editors as well as The Lantern, “irresponsible, reprehensible and foolish.”

Most students questioned The Lantern staff’s “decision” to include the ad in Monday’s paper.

But I must ask, did the students that called The Lantern hateful in their emails and Facebook statuses take a second to think and ask themselves, who is responsible for this? Did these students know that at The Lantern, there is a divide between the editorial staff and the business staff? Did they realize that editors have no say in which ads make it to the paper and which don’t?

Letter to the editor: Ad was ‘grossly unrepresentative’ of Muslims, OSU The Lantern received dozens of letters to the editor regarding a controversial advertisement from FrontPage Magazine, which ran Jan. 23, 2012. As there is simply not enough space to publish each letter we received, we selected the letters that you see in today’s paper, as we feel they are reflective of the overwhelming sentiment regarding the advertisement’s publication.

The Lantern here at Ohio State serves as a reliable source and an example of what a successful university publication looks like.

The authors and contributors consist almost entirely of students, from a variety of majors and backgrounds.

Up until today, I felt that I was also represented, which is why I was shocked by today’s publication.

Directly next to a title praising a student groups’ generous efforts towards aiding epilepsy was a blatant attack on Muslim Student Associations nationwide. On the second page of today’s edition, I came across a 1/4-page ad titled “Former leaders of the Muslim Student Association (MSA): Where are they now?” complete with a list of alleged terrorists who were former presidents or co-founders of MSA’s across the country. In addition to this, a book titled “Muslim Hate Groups on Campus” was advertised for sale and encouraged to buy in bulk.

Honestly, I couldn’t believe it. My Ohio State University always seemed to represent and encourage respect, diversity, inclusion and tolerance.

The Lantern seemed like a place in which students could express their views and where others could look towards those views to form opinions.

This ad, while being grossly unrepresentative

of Muslims, also draws an attack on our Muslims Student Association here on campus. The same organization that has held countless fundraisers for impoverished areas around the world, participated in interfaith, works tirelessly to educate people about Muslims and break false stereotypes and is a vital asset to our campus community.

I am offended not only as a Muslim or as a general body member of MSA, but as a member of the OSU community. We do not stand for discrimination, hate or intolerance here. Nor my peers or I claim to be qualified to speak on behalf of 1.8 billion Muslims worldwide and I find it repugnant that Daniel Greenfield deems himself qualified to do so. I am extremely disappointed in The Lantern for allowing this ad to run, it was paid for, it is not an op-ed, and they had every right to deny it as hate speech. Fear tactics such as these do nothing but fuel irrational hate towards groups that would otherwise be working together for the betterment of our community. And I cannot sit idly and allow that to happen.

Jana Al-Akhras In support of this letter are: • SHADES (Buckeye Chapter) • The Pulse • Girls Circle Project • United Students Against Sweatshops • Laotian American Organization • Buck-I-SERV • Fechko House of the Alumnae Scholarship Housing Program • Committee for Justice in Palestine

Letter to the editor: 10 examples don’t represent all Muslims as ad implied The Lantern received dozens of letters to the editor regarding a controversial advertisement from FrontPage Magazine, which ran Jan. 23, 2012. As there is simply not enough space to publish each letter we received, we selected the letters that you see in today’s paper, as we feel they are reflective of the overwhelming sentiment regarding the advertisement’s publication.

Dear Lantern Editors, I was taken aback upon viewing the advertisement on page 2A of the Monday, Jan. 23 issue of The Lantern. The ad is for a book written by Daniel Greenfield entitled “Muslim Hate Groups on Campus” I agree that citizens have a right to freedom speech, but The Lantern, “the student voice of The Ohio State University” must have the discretion to leave ads such as these unpublished. In a state university that promotes diversity, it is a shame that an ad like this can be published in the school paper.

4A

Books such as these spread the idea that one should steer clear and be suspicious of those who identify themselves as Muslim. It is true that the statements in the ad about former MSA leaders are possible examples of extremists (I have not done the research to verify each statement). These are 10 unfortunate cases. It is also true that there are Christian and Jewish people who are involved in religious organizations on campus who also commit various crimes. I see no ad for a book entitled “Christian Hate Groups on Campus” (nor do I want to). Why target the Muslims who have received a wrongfully bad reputation of being “terrorists” since 9/11?

Sincerely, Alifia Merchant

The answer is no, they did not.

And instead of inquiring about The Lantern’s advertisement policy or simply asking who’s in charge of the ads that run in the paper, the majority of students have relied on hearsay to form opinions on the issue.

Most people overreacted over something they knew almost nothing about.

Editors were bombarded with emails demanding explanations for the ad.

I’ve personally received several phone calls and text messages from fellow Muslims and MSA members asking me if I knew why The Lantern staff chose to run such offensive ads.

I told them all the same thing: you should not associate the ads that run in the student newspaper with the editors, they have no

control nor do they have a say.

They are only responsible for the written content, i.e. articles in the paper.

As a former Lantern editor myself, I can attest to the absence of racism, anti-Islamic views and prejudice in the Lantern newsroom. There is zero tolerance for such behavior and I’m a walking example of that.

Think about it, if The Lantern was so anti-Muslims and Islam, why was I a paid member of staff? If I was treated with that kind of hate and disrespect, why would I choose to not only work for, but write for a publication that allegedly spreads hate?

If there’s someone we should all be mad at, it’s Daniel Greenfield who wrote the pamphlet, not The Lantern staff.

Although I was as offended

by the ad as any other Muslim would be, let’s keep in mind that every American has a right to freedom of speech. And even though Greenfield’s book offended and upset a great majority of us students, he does have the right to express his views.

But we should look at the big picture here: the more we keep dwelling on this topic, we are giving Greenfield some undeserved and free publicity by talking about his irrelevant and highly offensive $3 pamphlet.

So before you pick up the phone to make a call or send an email to a Lantern editor calling them ignorant, hateful and anti-Muslim, make sure you do your homework and separate the rumors from the truth.

Letter to the editor: ‘There is no need for a college newspaper’ to foster hate The Lantern received dozens of letters to the editor regarding a controversial advertisement from FrontPage Magazine, which ran Jan. 23, 2012. As there is simply not enough space to publish each letter we received, we selected the letters that you see in today’s paper, as we feel they are reflective of the overwhelming sentiment regarding the advertisement’s publication.

On Monday January 23, 2012, The Lantern featured an advertisement for the FrontPage Magazine, promoting a book titled “Muslim Hate Groups on Campus.” The catch phrase on top of the ad reads, “Former leaders of the Muslim Student Association (MSA): Where are they now?” I was so caught off guard by this blatant display of suspicion and hate towards Muslims that I ventured onto FrontPage Magazine’s website, where I found more disturbing literature promoting anti-Muslim awareness and rumors.

The fact that The Lantern, which provides campus and general news regarding politics, sports, world issues, etc. to Ohio State students, faculty and friends, would publish anything promoting such obvious negativity towards a faith group in the United States is very disconcerting. I question the leadership of those running The Lantern as a provider of news, as student organization, and as an entity of our university, for allowing such a large

advertisement that is geared toward hate and overgeneralization to be printed.

At a campus of such diversity and size, I’d expect more tact in the selection of the advertisements which get placed in our newspaper. I do not hesitate to say that I will speak for the students of Ohio State and say we do not support literature that is hateful towards Muslims. While I am not a Muslim, nor am I directly related to any Muslim organization on campus, I don’t hesitate to say that FrontPage Magazine’s ad grossly distorts Islam and is clearly generalizing.

We have enough political unrest and division in this country. There is no need for a college newspaper to aid in the circulation of malicious ideas and the fostering of feelings which may divide us.

I hope to see The Lantern using more discretion in the future.

Sincerely, Taylor Sawyer The Ohio State University John Glenn School of Public Affairs

Letter to the editor: Student paper should reflect students it represents The Lantern received dozens of letters to the editor regarding a controversial advertisement from FrontPage Magazine, which ran Jan. 23, 2012. As there is simply not enough space to publish each letter we received, we selected the letters that you see in today’s paper, as we feel they are reflective of the overwhelming sentiment regarding the advertisement’s publication.

Dear Editor, I was disgusted and enraged to see the ad for “Muslim Hate Groups on Campus” in your paper on January 23, 2012. I know that a newspaper is a business, and I understand that you need advertisements to keep the paper running. But The Lantern is not only a reflection of the journalists who write for it, or you who edits it, but it is and ought to be a reflection of this campus. The ads that run in The Lantern should reflect the needs and interests of the student body as much as the articles.

What I saw in the paper today was not up to the standards of the students of the Ohio State University. I have known Ohio State to be a

place where all are welcome without discrimination with regard to race, religion, gender or any other qualifier. Here, we are all Buckeyes.

Last fall, when the Westboro Baptist members came to campus spreading their message of hate, the student body responded with the message, “Ohio State No Place for Hate.” That is the Ohio State I know, and the message that truly reflects our esteemed student body. I urge you to recognize our message and join the students of this university.

This is not the first, nor will it be the last message of hate to come to Ohio State, but I hope that in the future, The Lantern will reflect the beliefs of the students which it represents and chooses not to promote a message that threatens the wellbeing of those students.

Former OSU left tackle Mike Adams adjusts his helmet on Senior Day before playing Penn State Nov. 19, 2011, at Ohio Stadium in Columbus, Ohio. OSU lost the game, 20-14.

Adams brings big dreams to Senior Bowl Pat Brennan Sports editor brennan.164@osu.edu By his own admission, former Ohio State football left tackle Mike Adams is in an awkward stage of his playing career.

“I don’t really belong to any team,” Adams told The Lantern during a Tuesday interview. “It’s kind of like you’re watching and working to make sure that the dreams live on that we’ve had since we were little kids.”

Based on how Adams’ week of preparation for Saturday’s Senior Bowl has gone so far, as well as the expectations of one ESPN college football analyst, this awkward stage shouldn’t last too long.

A three-year starter for the Buckeyes and a first team all-Big Ten selection in 2010, Adams is strapping on his Scarlet and Gray helmet for the final time this week as he prepares for Saturday’s showcase game in Mobile, Ala. “It’s going great,” Adams said of the two days of practice he’s had this week. “Definitely a blessing to be down here. It’s a great opportunity to get out and compete with all these other great college football players.”

Adams is recently removed from

an OSU career that featured highs and lows.

He played in a total of 31 total games during his time as a Buckeye, including 23 starts.

Adams was suspended the first five games of the 2011 season after he was found to have sold OSU football memorabilia in exchange for improper benefits in the form of tattoos. Suspended along with Adams were former OSU quarterback Terrelle Pryor, defensive end Solomon Thomas, and Senior Bowl teammates wide receiver DeVier Posey and running back Daniel “Boom” Herron.

Despite the suspension, Adams was awarded the 2011 Jim Parker Award as the Buckeyes’ outstanding offensive lineman. He shared the honor with another former OSU player and Senior Bowl teammate, center Michael Brewster.

If the award he received during a suspension-shortened season wasn’t enough proof of his talent, ESPN analyst Todd McShay said Adams was the Buckeyes’ top draft prospect despite the suspension during a November interview with The Lantern.

“I think Adams is probably the highest-rated (OSU player),” McShay said. “He’s had his ups and downs … He’s good enough to play at right tackle in the NFL.”

Adams has continued to improve his draft appeal to NFL franchises this week as he has practiced against top defensive linemen from around the country, including former Penn State defensive end Jack Crawford, former Virginia defensive end Cam Johnson and former Marshall defensive end Vinny Curry, the 2011 Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year.

“It’s exciting and it’s definitely been a great experience so far,” Adams said of the competition he’s faced. “It’s awesome. It’s just a blessing to be here.”

Adams said his main goal was to learn from the Senior Bowl North team’s coaching staff, which is comprised of coaches from the Minnesota Vikings.

“One of my goals from the technical side was definitely to just learn from the Vikings coaching staff and be able to implement the things into my game that they teach me,” Adams said.

Adams has implemented the Vikings’ staff’s teachings well, according to a report from Sports Illustrated draft expert Tony Pauline.

Pauline noted Adams’ performance in his notebook-style story on the Senior Bowl practices on cnnsi. com, saying: “What’s so impressive about

(tackle) Mike Adams of Ohio State is the way he easily moves his 330-pound frame around the field,” Pauline said. “Even this morning, when asked to block in motion, Adams quickly gets out to the second level and is able to adjust and block linebackers thanks to his agility.”

In trying to keep his childhood dream of playing professional football alive, Adams said he aims to make himself even more of a presence on the field this week.

“I just want to go out there and compete and perform well,” Adams said, “and make myself known as one of the better offensive tackles in this draft class.”

Saturday’s Senior Bowl kicks off in Mobile at Ladd-Peebles Stadium at 3 p.m. The game will be televised nationally on the NFL Network.

Michael Periatt contributed to this story.

This story is the second in a four-part series about the four former Ohio State football players who will compete in the 2012 Senior Bowl.

Read tomorrow’s sports section in The Lantern for the third installment in the series.

Kelly Terwilliger back in the fold for OSU field hockey team Nick Dvorscak Lantern reporter dvorscak.2@osu.edu After gaining three years of coaching experience, Kelly Terwilliger has returned to Ohio State as an assistant field hockey coach.

She was eager to talk about what it means to come back to OSU, saying it was “coming back home.”

“I’m more than thrilled,” she said.

“Having the opportunity to coach with Anne Wilkinson is a dream.”

Terwilliger was a member of the OSU field hockey team from 2004-07, where she started every game.

She was Academic All-Big Ten twice during her career and earned the team’s Most Valuable Defender award her final two years on the team.

Terwilliger, a native of East Stroudsburg, Pa., spent the last two years coaching as a graduate assistant and one as an assistant coach at Ohio University.

Along with coaching at OU, she was busy earning two master’s degrees in coaching education and sports administration.

“I had a great time and had some awesome learning experience,” she said.

It was not just the coaching aspect of OU that she enjoyed so much, but the ability to further her education, she said.

“Being on the field and in the classroom is an unbelievable opportunity for any coach,” she said.

OU field hockey coach, Neil Macmillan, whom Terwilliger coached under, had nothing but positive things to say about her.

“Her graduate studies really translated to coaching,” he said. “She was really excited to learn and bring things on to the field.”

Macmillan said the energy she brought to the sidelines was a boost for the team during games.

“Having a coach like that, players feed off of it,” he said.

Macmillan also said Terwilliger is very approachable.

Then-senior Kelly Terwilliger goes for the ball during a field hockey match against Miami Sept. 12, 2007, in Oxford, Ohio. OSU won in overtime, 2-1.

“I think the players found someone in Kelly that they could talk to and really help them out in ways the assistant coach can and that I, as a head coach, cannot,” Macmillan said.

In her final season at OU, Terwilliger helped the Bobcats to a school best 9-1 record in Mid-American Conference play.

While he was supportive of Terwilliger’s decision, Macmillan expressed regret at seeing her return to OSU. “I would just say that we’re sorry to see her go. We had a good working relationship,” he said. “I know the pull of her alma mater was strong and she’s excited to go back.”

Even early on in Terwilliger’s career, Wilkinson said she knew

Terwilliger would end up in coaching.

“She loves to coach,” Wilkinson said. “It’s a natural fit.”

After all, coaching seems to be the Terwilliger family business.

Her father has been a football coach for more than 30 years at East Stroudsburg University and her brother coaches football at a high school near East Stroudsburg.

Terwilliger played defense while at OSU but said she knew if she wanted to coach she would have to increase her knowledge of the game.

She said that after she finished her playing career, she made an effort to familiarize herself with all areas of the game.

The open position at OSU could

not have come at a better time for Terwilliger, as she had just completed her degrees at OU, Wilkinson said.

Wilkinson said there’s no specific role that Terwilliger will fill on the coaching staff.

“We’re all excited she returned,” she said. “She’ll work closely with the defense and she’s a great recruiter.

She’ll cover it all.”

Terwilliger said she is excited to bring to the team “the alumni aspect of winning a Big Ten championship.”

The OSU field hockey team finished the 2011 season with a 12-9 record and lost in the first round of the NCAA Tournament to Old Dominion.

Thursday

How firm thy friendship, MT20? The local band said it places more importance on friends, fun and the Ohio State Buckeyes than on their instrumentals.

The members of MT20 have spent more time performing on campus porches and house parties than on stage, and they like it that way. Jake Caldwell, Anthony Pezzutti, Dave Norris, Mitch Derr and Jared Morris play their own style of rock/reggae with hopes that the crowd will dance, not that they will hit it big in the music industry.

MT20 is scheduled to perform Friday at “Snowed In With MT20,” featuring local bands My Beloved Tragedy, Sandcreek, Hollyview and Orange Willard at Newport Music Hall. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

The members attended St. Francis DeSales High School in Columbus together. They picked up Morris, the guitarist, after graduating high school and started playing at OSU parties for fun.

Caldwell, a fourth-year in communication and social work, said students are the band’s main demographic and it presents OSU pride at shows.

“We are all huge Ohio State fans. Some shows we take shots and do OSU chants between songs,” Caldwell said. “Dave has Brutus the Buckeye tattooed on his arm and ‘Ohio’ on his back.”

Caldwell said they proved their Buckeye pride when they played a game-day party near campus that the cops busted.

“They threatened to arrest us, but we wouldn’t stop until the song was over,” Caldwell said. “We love OSU.” Pezzutti’s parents, Mary and David Pezzutti, are members of local cover band Old Skool. It gave MT20 its first gig as an opening act five years ago.

Caldwell said it has come a long way since then.

“We sucked,” Caldwell said. “We were so scared.

I threw up before the show and right after. I forgot the lyrics to probably half the songs.”

Derr, drummer and a sixth-year in sociology and Spanish, said support from friends and family has been the driving force behind their performances.

“It’s a very welcoming atmosphere because we’re all friends,” Derr said. “Everyone’s just there to have a good time. It’s kind of like a big party.”

The 84th Academy Award nominees were announced Tuesday. The awards are scheduled to air at 7 p.m. Feb. 26 on ABC.

“We’re not trying to shatter anyone’s universe with our music,” Caldwell said. “If you come to a show, you’ll see that we’re friends playing music. We just mesh well together.”

Caldwell said the band doesn’t have plans to pursue a larger audience, but if the opportunity came, they would love to play full time.

“We’re not trying to get famous or anything like that,” Caldwell said. “We’re just here to have fun.”

Trent Sheumaker, an OSU alumnus, said the best part about going to an MT20 concert is the party atmosphere.

“They know how to please the crowd,” Sheumaker said. “If you come see them play, it’s pretty much a guaranteed good time.”

The Academy Awards have progressively withered away into a vortex of pretentious, borderline vile back-patting of the industry’s most vapid and platitudinous products. This year’s ceremony will be no different.

The nominees for the 84th Academy Awards were announced Tuesday. Never before have I snickered and scoffed my way through a list such as I did while reading this year’s predictably plebeian list of nominations.

Let me start with “The Artist,” which garnered 10 nods in total, second only to Martin Scorsese’s “Hugo.” For all intents and purposes, “The Artist” is a shoo-in to win Best Picture, and will likely take home awards in other major categories as well.

While I undoubtedly understand the importance of “The Artist” — producing a black-andwhite silent film in the “Transformers” era surely takes cajones — rewarding a film for simply being different does not an Oscar winner make.

Then there’s “The Descendants.” While I had previously shrugged this off as being a prototypical gloomy, introspective piece of Oscar bait, I never really felt the need to pull the gloves off, so to speak, until

Friday

Derr said the band’s success comes from not taking itself too seriously.

“We’re dedicated to what we do, we love it, but at the same time, we don’t let it consume us,” Derr said. “We just have a good time with it.”

Sublime, The Black Keys and The Beatles are among its influences. Anthony Pezzutti said some songs also have a hip-hop vibe and its genre jumping helps the band appeal to a larger audience.

“No matter what you’re into, we’re pretty sure you’re gonna hear something you like at one of our shows,” Anthony Pezzutti said.

Caldwell said while the band members aren’t the most “mind-blowing” musicians, they make the most of their talents with high-energy performances and a sound that has grown over the years.

ALEX ANTONETZ antonetz.3@osu.edu producer Jim Burke said the film would be “timeless” during his acceptance speech for Best Drama at the Golden Globes Jan. 15.

Excuse me while I vomit.

While the Academy was busy fellating each other (metaphorically, of course), legitimately great films were largely ignored.

For my money, “Drive” was the best flick of 2011, yet got virtually no love, apart from one nod for Best Sound Editing. “The Muppets,” which came damn close to being my favorite film of 2011, also only got one nod, and it was for Best Original Song, which it should win if anything at all is right with this world.

For those keeping track at home, “Drive” and “The

Muppets,” two of the year’s most critically-acclaimed films, got two fewer nominations than “Transformers: Dark of the Moon.”

Baffling.

The Academy did get some things right — things I didn’t expect (see: trust) them to get right, that is. If you’ve seen “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” Rooney Mara deserves the Best Actress trophy, and then some.

It’s likely a futile argument, however, as the trophy will surely go to Viola Davis in this year’s biggest piece of Oscar bait, “The Help.”

And speaking of “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” yet another year passes with no love for director David Fincher.

The film was snubbed in the Best Picture and Best Director categories, which I suppose isn’t much of a surprise after Fincher’s “The Social Network” wrongfully lost out to “The King’s Speech” in both categories last year.

Did Fincher pee in the Academy’s Cheerios or something?

Alas, it is almost inconceivable that an already-laborious three-hour ceremony could be more cumbersome to watch, but it seems the Academy has done the inconceivable and has likely made this year’s awards just that.

You can count me out.

New Riffe Gallery exhibit celebrates century of art in Columbus COLLIN HOWARD Lantern reporter howard.772@osu.edu

We’re on Twitter.

@LanternAE

When people think of Columbus, they might think Ohio State, the Clippers, COSI or the Crew, but the Ohio Arts Council’s Riffe Gallery is hoping to change that.

Starting Thursday, the exhibition “100 Years of Art: Celebrating Columbus’ Legacy,” will open to the public.

The exhibition features more than 50 artists and will serve to show the public how the art scene has changed over time. The artists were “influenced by local and national artistic developments as they helped to set the creative backdrop that still exists in Columbus today,” according to the Ohio Arts Council’s website.

Mary Gray, the director of the Riffe Gallery, said

the event was inspired by the city’s bicentennial celebration this year. Gray points out that although the exhibition is called “100 Years of Art,” it features work from an even longer time span.

“We are displaying all historic works,” Gray said.

“We go back to the mid-1800s all the way to 1970.”

Melissa Wolfe, the curator of American art at the Columbus Museum of Art, helped with the show.

“When we were looking to put the show together, we wanted to select somebody who had a great reputation and knows American art and specifically Columbus work, so we turned to our friend Melissa Wolfe at the Columbus Museum of Art,” Gray said.

“This is our first collaboration with Melissa Wolfe and she has really turned out to be an expert, a whiz, on this genre.”

Wolfe, who was excited to help play a role in the exhibition, said she had fun helping to put the event together.

“We thought what we could do was look at

legacy that the contemporary art world has grown out of and the kind of history of the art world in Columbus,” Wolfe said.

Wolfe said there have been different art communities in Columbus over the years, thriving especially during the 1930s through 1950s. This learning aspect was what made this a very enjoyable experience, she said.

“It’s fun to kind of uncover this community and this sort of history and the ways that artists created a really dynamic community,” Wolfe said.

Jim Keny, co-owner of Keny Galleries in German Village, said getting to know the historical culture of Columbus is important.

“It’s fascinating for people to know the heritage of this city. You will be able to see a wide range of style by a very diverse group of artists,” he said.

The gallery is open Tuesday through Sunday with free admission every day. Wolfe will lead a special public tour of the exhibit from noon to 1 p.m. Friday.
