Michael Drake of Cal Irvine to be named OSU president KRISTEN MITCHELL AND LIZ YOUNG Editor-in-chief and Campus editor mitchell.935@osu.edu and young.1693@osu.edu University of California Irvine Chancellor Michael Drake is expected to be named the next president of Ohio State. Ria Carlson, associate vice chancellor of strategic communications at UC Irvine, declined to comment on whether Drake was a finalist for the OSU presidency Wednesday afternoon. Carlson had said Monday she hadn’t heard anything and didn’t think Drake would want to comment, but would look into it. OSU spokesman Gary Lewis said he did not know who the next president would be late Wednesday afternoon. Multiple sources have told The Lantern OSU is set to announce its next president this week. The OSU Board of Trustees was set to meet in a full public meeting Friday. That full Board meeting was moved to Thursday, and the public was notified at about 4 p.m. Wednesday. “The full Board of Trustees will now reconvene at 4 p.m. (Thursday), with a brief executive session to be followed by a public session at approximately 4:20 p.m.,” the notice read. According to Board minutes, personnel actions were set to be made at the Friday public meeting. Drake was appointed chancellor of UC Irvine in 2005. Before his appointment, he served as vice president for health affairs for the University of California system for five years. UC Irvine has more than 28,000 undergraduate and graduate students, according to UC Irvine 2013 Facts and Figures. Drake is an alumnus of Stanford University and UC San Francisco. Drake would be the first black OSU president in the university’s 144-year history. Drake would also be the 15th OSU president. If announced this week, his appointment would come roughly seven months after former President E. Gordon Gee retired July 1. Gee announced his decision to retire from OSU days after

controversial comments he made at a Dec. 5, 2012, OSU Athletic Council meeting came under public scrutiny. Remarks about Notre Dame and the Southeastern Conference in particular brought national attention. The former two-time OSU president is currently serving as president at West Virginia University, taking an unpaid leave as president emeritus at OSU. OSU Vice President and athletic director Gene Smith said Wednesday afternoon that while he didn’t know who the next president is because, he stays out of those conversations, he had faith it will be the best person for the job. “Whoever it is, I have the greatest confidence in our trustees in that they’ll find an outstanding leader for us,” Smith said in an interview with The Lantern Wednesday. “Having done this for a long time, I think I’ve worked for eight or nine different presidents in my tenure. So I’ll adjust. Somewhere, someplace like Ohio State, you’re going to get someone that can handle complex organizations and understand athletics to some degree. So I look forward to it.” Interim President Joseph Alutto announced Tuesday Smith received a four year contract extension until 2020, a roughly 12 percent pay raise and was named a vice president of the university.

VP Gene Smith: In Columbus to stay ERIC SEGER Sports editor seger.25@osu.edu This is the last card Gene Smith is looking to play. The newly promoted vice president and current athletic director of Ohio State told The Lantern Wednesday Columbus is the final destination for both he and his family — cemented with his recently announced advancement in the school’s line of control. Staying put at OSU, though, wasn’t entirely his decision, Smith said. “I know I’ve been doing this for a long time and my wife and I decided that this is our last stop,” Smith said. “I actually say that tongue-incheek because I didn’t make that decision, she actually did.” Regardless of who actually decided Smith would stay in Columbus until his college administration days come to an end, the vice president and athletic director is slated to be working at OSU until at least June 30, 2020, after his four year contract extension and a nearly 12 percent pay raise was announced Tuesday. Smith sat down with The Lantern to talk Buckeye football and basketball, the recent additions to coach Urban Meyer’s staff and his goals for his new job.

Make-up days an option to replace missed class MICHELE THEODORE Copy chief theodore.13@osu.edu Though the chill that canceled three days of Ohio State classes has passed for now, some students might have to revisit the classroom to make up the time they missed. Executive Vice President and Provost Joseph Steinmetz sent an email to faculty and students Wednesday afternoon announcing plans for rescheduling classes. Classes were canceled Jan. 6 and 7 as temperatures fell to roughly minus 7, and again Tuesday as temperatures dipped to minus 7 again, meaning OSU has missed two days of Tuesday classes. “The university is making available to instructors the option of using Tuesday, April 22, technically the reading day before finals, as a make-up day,” Steinmetz said in the email. “Students whose instructors want to take advantage of that make-up day should plan to meet at

On being ‘Vice President and Athletic Director Gene Smith’ OSU Interim President Joseph Alutto announced Smith’s new title and updated contract Tuesday, giving him almost a 12 percent raise in salary — to $940,484 from about $840,484 — effective July 1, 2013. Smith said he is “excited” about the future and what he wants to accomplish in his new position. “I wanted to have an opportunity to see the vision that all of us have in the athletic department come to fruition, and that takes stability,” Smith said. “Joe was kind enough to listen and forward me that opportunity.” Smith said he has been involved in the business side of the vice presidency “for little over a year now.” “Really the vice president and that is formalizing those responsibilities I already have,” Smith said. Buckeye football Following a 6-7 season in 2011, Smith pursued and hired Urban Meyer to bring the program back to the nation’s elite. OSU is 24-2 since Meyer took over the reigns of the program in 2012, including winning 24 straight games as part of back-to-back undefeated regular seasons. But the Buckeyes faltered in their biggest games of this past season, losing, 34-24, to Michigan State in the Big Ten Championship

Newly promoted vice president and current athletic director of OSU Gene Smith in an interview with The Lantern. Game Dec. 7 and then to Clemson, 40-35, in the 2014 Discover Orange Bowl Jan. 3. Aside from the two losses, Smith said he is pleased with the job Meyer is doing. “I know Urban and his staff have done a great job transitioning in, in the first year and obviously going undefeated. But they’ve created the right culture,” Smith said. “We have young men who understand what their primary objectives are … Every game we have a chance to win, and ultimately we’ve won a lot of them. Even the games we lost, we were in the position to win.” OSU’s football team is set to start its 2014 campaign Aug. 30 against Navy at M&T Bank Stadium. OSU hoops OSU’s other major revenue sport, the men’s basketball program, began this season on a 15-game winning streak, but lost four straight over the span of two weeks. The Buckeyes seemed getting back on track, winning their last game, but fell to Penn State, 71-70, Wednesday. Smith had a bit of simple advice for the team down the road: stop thinking and just play. That could help the team stack up with the nation’s best.
“I think we have it in us,” Smith said. “I think we have to get away from thinkin’ when we’re playing, and just go play. Just go play. We have to relax and shoot the ball.” New football assistant coaches Meyer added two high-profile assistant coaches in the last month in former Penn State defensive line coach Larry Johnson and former Arkansas defensive coordinator and secondary coach Chris Ash. Both men are expected to bring stability to a defensive unit that finished 112th in the nation in passing defense, giving up 268 yards per game. Smith said Meyer had a “short list” of candidates he wished to go after to fill the open positions, and Smith is looking forward to seeing what each coach can bring to the table. “When Chris Ash’s named popped up, I was excited because he was with me at Iowa State,” Smith said, referring to when he was athletic director at Iowa State and Ash was a defensive graduate assistant. “Then Larry Johnson … here’s a guy with multiple years of experience at the age of 60 or 61 and will bring a lot to the table for us.”

campus Stepp: OSU admin not working with USG on affordability BRANDON MERRIMAN Lantern reporter merriman.65@osu.edu Undergraduate Student Government’s Affordability Initiative is losing traction, following a lack of interest from the Ohio State administration. “As of this moment, we have not had any points which the university has said they want to work with us on, which I am very disappointed to see,” said USG President Taylor Stepp, a fourth-year in public affairs. “Frankly … there’s no reason we can’t work together on these issues,” Stepp said. Stepp said OSU officials, including faculty leaders and members of the Senior Management Council, have been approached over the last few months to talk about the initiative, but he declined to name which university officials were approached by USG.

Tobacco ban not affecting applicant interest MUYAO SHEN Lantern reporter shen.414@osu.edu While Ohio State officials have said they hope the OSU tobacco ban will “trickle down” to high schoolers, some high school students said the new policy isn’t going to play into their college decision. OSU began an enforced campus-wide tobacco ban Jan. 1 on all tobacco products including cigarettes, tobacco chew, snuff, e-cigarettes and snus, which is a “spitless,” moist powder tobacco pouch, according to the American Cancer Society. For some high school students who have submitted their applications to OSU this year, the ban has been a topic of conversation. Tori Geiger, a senior from Wayne High School in Dayton who does not smoke, said she supports the new ban. “When I read it (OSU’s tobacco ban), I thought it was a really good idea and I hope it’s enforced,” Geiger said. “It’s 2014. Everyone should know the dangers of smoking and of secondhand smoke.”
If we cut that off before (students) come here, if they know that they’re going to apply to OSU, they can’t be smoking in high school, we’re hoping for this trickle down effect. Dr. Peter Shields Deputy director of the Wexner Medical Center James Comprehensive Cancer Center Geiger said while she’s happy about the ban, she hopes it’s actually enforced. “It’s nice to see OSU working to protect everyone’s health. I’m completely comfortable with the ban,” Geiger said. “I just think it’s one of those things that whoever (is) in charge of enforcing it, they’re going to have (to) stay really on top of, especially with the e-cigarettes.” Others, though, aren’t as enthusiastic about the new policy. Seth Morrison, a senior student from West Holmes High School in Millersburg who smokes, said he doesn’t support the ban. “That’s pretty ridiculous,” Morrison said. “It (includes) outdoors and in public, which
seems pretty contradictory. Obviously, tobacco isn’t the healthiest thing ever, but it’s still legal outdoors.” Morrison said he doesn’t think secondhand smoke is a significant issue outside. “How much secondhand smoke are you going to experience outside? Not much. It’s more of an inconvenience than anything,” Morrison said. The campus-wide ban was announced in 2013, and was set to take effect Aug. 1. In August, however, university officials said the ban would not be enforced until 2014. Tobacco ban violations are not handled by the University Police, but instead by the Office of Human Resources. Dr. Peter Shields, deputy director of the Wexner Medical Center James Comprehensive Cancer Center, said the goal of the tobacco ban is to build a healthier environment on campus. “We know in tobacco control no single thing that we do is a magic bullet, whether it’s higher taxes for cigarettes or indoor air laws or lots of smoking cessation availability, lots
Two accounts of sexual impositions were reported on Ohio State’s campus this week. The incidents were not related and are not an “ongoing threat to the university community,” said David Rose, University Police patrol bureau captain, in an email. The first incident reportedly occurred Jan. 22 at University Hospitals East, located at 1492 E. Broad St., between 6:30 a.m. and 7 a.m. A 30-year-old woman, not affiliated with OSU, reported sexual imposition by a known suspect. The woman reported the incident but did not want to file any charges. The case is closed, according to a University Police report. The second incident was reported Saturday but occurred between Jan. 16 and Jan. 18. A 48-year-old female non-affiliate reported sexual imposition at Postle Hall, located at 305 W. 12th Ave., by a known suspect. Investigation into the case is pending, according to a University Police report. There were 19 total thefts reported on OSU’s campus this week from Jan. 22 to Wednesday. A 52-year-old man not affiliated with OSU was arrested for receiving stolen property at Hamilton Hall Jan. 23 at about 2:30 p.m. Property related to the incident included a Macbook Air laptop, an iPhone and a black backpack with its contents, including a wallet, headphones and keys. The stolen property was valued at more than $2,400 and was all recovered. Of the other thefts, one incident was a theft of a bicycle at Taylor Tower. Three incidents were thefts from automobiles, which occurred at the northwest stadium lot, the polo field lots and near the intersection of Highland and 10th avenues.

Undergraduate Student Government Vice President Josh Ahart, a fourth-year in public affairs, said Wednesday night he believes Drake is a good choice for the next OSU president. “I think he’s a great guy, I think he’ll be a tremendous leader for Ohio State,” Ahart said. “I trust that the Board and the Presidential Search Committee did a great job getting the best person possible.” Ahart said he thinks Drake was chosen on his merit. “I think that they chose a person that has the best qualities, the best ideas, the best vision for the university,” Ahart said. The OSU Presidential Search Committee began its search July 19. That day, committee Chairman
Jeffrey Wadsworth said the search could last as long as 300 days. If Drake’s appointment is announced Thursday, the search from start to finish will have taken 196 days. At a Board meeting in November, Wadsworth said the search could end early, but “(the new president) may still not be able to start until the start of the academic year.” The search cost at least $337,000, including paying private search firm R. William Funk & Associates more than $220,000 and holding a symposium Aug. 30 meant to gather information about important university president characteristics and the challenges of the modern presidency that cost nearly $120,000. Candidates and finalists were kept confidential during the search process.

Snow blankets the Oval Monday. Three days of classes have been canceled at OSU Spring Semester because of cold weather.
Class from 1A their regular class time in their usual classroom on April 22.” Faculty members who administer seven-week courses have the option of making up missed sessions Feb. 8 and Feb. 15, which are both Saturdays. Steinmetz asked students to “make every attempt to attend if their instructor chooses to offer a make-up class,” according to the email, but said faculty members should “remain flexible, given other commitments students may have made.” Students will not be penalized for missing these classes, according to the email. Emiliano Melgar, a third-year in biochemistry, said he would support professors using a Saturday or reading day to hold class. “I don’t mind. If they have material that needs to be covered, it’s better that they utilize the extra day,” Melgar said.
Ban from 2A of good media coverage about the harmful effects of tobacco use — it’s all a package,” Shields said in an interview with The Lantern Jan. 16. Morrison, though, said the policy change won’t affect his decision about where to go to college. “Like I said, it’s more of an inconvenience,” Morrison said. “Smoking isn’t a priority to my school experience.” Morrison said it might be hard for him to find another more convenient way to release his stress besides smoking if he goes to OSU. Alex Maytin, a senior from Shaker Heights High School in Shaker Heights who does not smoke, said the tobacco policy seems overly “restrictive.” “Personally, I don’t smoke,” Maytin said. “But … people have rights to really harm their bodies if they want to.” OSU has spent about $43,000 of its $100,000 tobacco ban signage budget to make sure when visitors come to campus, they remember to put out their cigarettes. Signs have been placed outside several university buildings, including the Ohio Union, and banners have been hung in parking garages. The money used comes from “benefit funds,” not
Cory Hohenstein, a third-year in aviation engineering, said he wouldn’t mind professors adding a class to the end of the semester but doesn’t like the possibility of Saturday classes. “I don’t think they should take a Saturday … and I think most professors won’t take advantage of that because it’s their weekend too — it’s not just our weekend,” he said. Tuesday was roughly the 11th time OSU has closed since 1978. OSU Administration and Planning spokeswoman Lindsay Komlanc said that, most recently before this year, evening classes were canceled in February 2011 because of snow. The most recent cancellation in January before this year was in 2009, which was because of snow, Komlanc said. Daniel Bendtsen contributed to this story.
a single department, and is administered on behalf of OSU by the Office of Human Resources, according to OSU spokesman Gary Lewis. Jonathan Nutt, assistant director and policy coordinator of OSU’s Student Wellness Center, said the new policy is fundamentally meant to be a way to help students, faculty, staff and visitors who want to quit smoking. “There’s a lot of evidence out there that suggests quitting as a group helps and also setting dates and just making sure that you build that sort of support structure around someone who wants to quit tobacco. So there’s kind of the idea of, well, maybe Ohio State can quit tobacco together,” Nutt said in an interview with The Lantern Jan. 16. Shields said he can see the tobacco policy becoming “part of (OSU’s) culture” in the future and wants the policy to reach high schoolers. “(Smoking is) really an adolescent disease. I mean, most times people start smoking (at) 11 years old, 12 years old, 14 years old, 15 years old, but it takes years to get really addicted and it’s during the college years that really some people get cemented (in),” Shields said. “If we cut that off before (students) come here, if they know that they’re going to apply to OSU, they can’t be smoking in high school, we’re hoping for this trickle down effect.”

campus Classroom climate control a battle for some professors, students ALEXIS HILL Lantern reporter hill.1241@osu.edu Some Ohio State students and professors have recently said temperatures in the buildings on campus are affecting the “learning environment.” Cynthia Selfe, a professor in the Department of English at OSU, has her office in Denney Hall. Selfe has heard students complain about the temperatures of Denney, and said at times, the building feels too hot. Selfe said she thinks the temperatures are set “according to the season and not according to the temperatures individuals would like.” Selfe said, though, the temperatures of Denney Hall and other buildings around campus can sometimes be a distraction. “Both students and teachers recognize that the temperatures of the building are not conducive to the best learning environment,” Selfe said. She said the problem has been occurring for years. The cost of those temperatures, though, is a separate matter. Lindsay Komlanc, spokeswoman for Administration and Planning at OSU, said the exact cost of heating for OSU is not metered separately. Instead, the heating cost is included with the total electricity cost for the year, which can vary from year to year, depending on the weather. “The university spent an average of $3 million a month on electricity for the Columbus campus. Keep in mind, this supports
USG from 2A provide comment from OSU officials who were involved in the talks, but sent a university statement in an email saying OSU is “fully committed to broadening access and increasing affordability to a diverse student population.” “We appreciate the leadership of USG President Taylor Stepp and the efforts of the commission in addressing these critically important and national challenges in higher education,” Lewis said. Vice President for Student Life Javaune AdamsGaston told The Lantern Nov. 19 she had spoken with members of USG about the initiative. “We’ve had lots of conversation and I really appreciate Taylor and USG for taking this as a very serious issue in the same way the university takes this as a serious issue,” she said. “I like what he has outlined.” A Nov. 21 press release from USG defined
the Affordability Initiative as a “holistic, proactive approach to combat the problem of student debt and improve college affordability at Ohio State.” The initiative is based on findings of the Commission to Rethink Access, a USG committee that researched ways to make OSU more affordable. Some recommendations of the initiative were for OSU to supply information about expected cost increases, provide undergraduates universal access to financial coaches and remove the credit hour cap, which currently charges undergraduate students extra – about $199 for Ohio residents and about $526 per additional half credit hour – for taking more than 18 credit hours, according to a USG release. While parts of the initiative have changed since its initial conception, Stepp said the administration was consulted throughout its formation and knew about the specifics “well before” the initiative was announced.
450 buildings and 22 million square feet of space – with a user base of more than 56,000 students and 23,000 faculty and staff,” Komlanc told The Lantern in an email in October. Komlanc said at times, temperatures in different buildings might be warmer than other buildings. As far as recent concerns about the building temperatures, Komlanc said there were different factors in recent weeks that could have affect building temperatures, such as temperatures going as low as minus 7 degrees outside. “What appeared to be too much heat was likely the result of proactive efforts by our team to ensure buildings were properly heated,” Komlanc said. Nicole Cochran, an administrative manager and fiscal and human resources officer, also has her office in Denney Hall. Cochran said at times, she’s felt the impact of too-hot air. “I currently have my office window open in order to cool down my office. I know others do the same,” Cochran said. She also has had students and faculty voice concerns about the temperature. Cochran and her staff have submitted service requests to have someone look into the issue, which she hopes will help. Erin Friend, a third-year in speech and hearing science, said the temperature has influenced her learning. “It can become hard to concentrate,” Friend said. Friend said it can be hard to figure out what to wear in the morning because she never knows how hot she’ll be during classes.
“Every one of our points is solidified, and we have reports and data and everything that we need to make our case,” Stepp said. “The broader argument has been there for quite some time.” USG also sought student input when forming the initiative. “I haven’t had any student tell me anything other than the fact that they are very much looking forward to us accomplishing some of these goals that are listed in the initiative,” Stepp said. USG plans to speak with federal officials about its Affordability Initiative in April at a yearly “Big Ten on the Hill” conference in Washington, D.C., Stepp said. USG representatives will meet with member of Congress, members of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and White House officials. John Grusenmeyer, a first-year in sustainable plant systems, said he supports the ideas behind the initiative.

@TheLantern “It would be nice for (the administration) to work with (USG),” Grusenmeyer said. “School is really expensive.” Patrick Conlon, a third-year in English, agreed. “It’s frustrating when the administration tells us that (students) have power, and when USG tries to impact real change, OSU drags their feet,” Conlon said. “It’s like they let us play government until it matters, then they have the Board of Trustees … make the decisions.” With money on many students’ minds, Stepp said he expects action from OSU on at least some of the points of the initiative. “We put forward a plan,” Stepp said. “There is no administration plan to tackle affordability. And we said, ‘If you aren’t going to tackle it, we will.’” Daniel Bendtsen contributed to this story.

Junior forward LaQuinton Ross (10) attempts a lay up during a game against Penn State Jan. 29 at the Schottenstein Center. OSU lost, 71-70.
An inability to put teams away, a lack of toughness or simply missing shots — no matter how you look at it, the Ohio State Buckeyes are no longer undefeated against Penn State with Thad Matta as their coach. Matta’s streak of 17 straight wins against the Nittany Lions came to an end Wednesday, after a jumper in the lane by Penn State redshirt-junior guard D.J. Newbill with 1.9 seconds left in overtime gave them the lead, 71-70. OSU senior guard Aaron Craft was unable to get a shot off at the buzzer and the Buckeyes suffered their fifth loss in six games. “We weren’t the tougher basketball team tonight,” Craft said after the loss. “That’s what it comes down to, 10-point lead with however much time we have left, and we just couldn’t do it.” Newbill carried Penn State down the stretch, scoring 17 of his gamehigh 25 points in the second half and overtime, including a 3-pointer that tied the game with 11 seconds left in regulation. “This was more than a winnable basketball game,” Matta said after the loss. “It’s one of those things that we’ve got to — we gotta be a tougher physically and tougher mentally basketball team.” The Buckeyes held the lead for the majority of the second half,
but were unable to convert when it counted, failing on three attempts before the buzzer sounded in regulation to win. Senior guard Lenzelle Smith Jr. was at a loss for words following the game, but did say the loss “hurts the most out of every game” since he’s been a Buckeye. “This is embarrassing,” Smith Jr. said. “Every other team in our conference is laughing at us right now.” The Nittany Lions (11-10, 2-6), jumped out to an early 15-11 lead on OSU, aided by just 3-10 shooting by the Buckeyes in the game’s first eight minutes. OSU’s shooting percentage improved late in the half, as it used a 7-3 run to take a 35-31 lead into halftime. The Buckeyes (16-5, 3-5) would increase the lead to 11 after two free throws by junior forward LaQuinton Ross, but Penn State would not go away. OSU had multiple opportunities to extend the lead, but was unable to do it and Newbill hit big shots down the stretch to secure the win. Ross led OSU with 16 points and seven rebounds, and Smith Jr. added 15 points of his own in the loss. OSU’s last two losses come by a combined seven points to Nebraska Jan. 20 and Penn State. Both are teams that typically sit near the bottom of the Big Ten standings throughout the course of the

OSU’s Ryan Dzingel ‘proud to be a part’ of men’s hockey team taylor cameron Lantern reporter cameron.883@osu.edu Junior forward Ryan Dzingel isn’t the most vocal player on Ohio State’s men’s hockey team, but that doesn’t stop him from being a leader. “He is a quiet leader. How he plays the game is how he leads,” associate head coach Brett Larson said. That leadership has seen Dzingel nominated for the Hobey Baker Memorial Award, given to the best collegiate hockey player in the country. The award is currently in the fan voting process to narrow the nominees down to 10, at which point a board will then finalize three nominees and announce the winner at the Frozen Four in April. “It’s not easy balancing all the most important things in my life. Faith, family and friends are the most important things in my life and always will be. I feel that if those three things are in place, school and hockey will follow. Takes hard

Junior forward Ryan Dzingel (18) prepares to shoot the puck during a game against Michigan State Jan. 11 at the Schottenstein Center. The teams tied, 1-1. work but all student-athletes find a way to get it done,” Dzingel said in an email. Dzingel said his biggest role models are his parents. He describes his mom as sweet and caring and said he “would like to be half the person she is.” As for his dad, who battled through cancer this past year, Dzingel said, “I could not be more proud to call him my role model/ father.” The junior forward from
Wheaton, Ill., joined the Buckeyes in 2011 as part of a class Dzingel described as “special.” “We knew three years ago coming in that we had a special junior class, and we were given a lot of opportunity and responsibility right away. There is a lot of talent, leadership, and hard-working guys in (this) group, which has helped us a lot. I’m proud to be a part of it.” Dzingel said. Dzingel is averaging 1.36 points per game, which leads the
Big Ten and ties for 16th-best in the country. He also leads the Buckeyes in goals with 14 and is tied for the lead in assists with 16. “He continually puts a lot of effort into improving his shot. On and off the ice, he is always working on it,” Larson said. “The more shots he takes, the more goals, so I think that work ethic — working on that one area of his game — is really starting to pay off for him.” Dzingel attributes his success to shooting the puck more but also credits his teammates. He said he feels the Buckeyes can be successful if they can correct a couple mistakes. “We have a lot of guys who have bought into the team comes first (mentality). It’s a little bit cliche but we have got a good group of character people who believe in the team,” Larson said. The next puck drop is set for 7:05 p.m. Friday at the Schottenstein Center when the Buckeyes take on Penn State.
Women’s basketball hoping to slow down Illinois James grega jr. Lantern reporter grega.9@osu.edu In a competitive year for the Big Ten conference, there is no room for a letdown. That is exactly what the Ohio State women’s basketball (13-10, 3-4) team look to avoid Thursday when it takes on a reeling Illinois (9-11, 2-5) squad that has lost six of its last eight games. Despite the poor record of Illinois, OSU coach Kevin McGuff said Illinois is a more than capable team. “Illinois is really talented. They have played really well at times,” McGuff said. “Quite frankly, I am a little surprised at their record because I know they are very well-coached and have some talent.” McGuff said he is worried about the threat coach Matt Bollant and the Illini can pose with their speed. “They are not big, but they are fast,” McGuff said. “Hopefully some of our size around the basket can bother them.” That size, of course, comes from 6-foot-5-inch Ashley Adams and 6-foot-2-inch Darryce Moore, the senior Buckeye centers who could be poised for a big game despite struggling in the team’s last game against Michigan State, with Moore scoring eight and Adams failing to score. “We have a pretty big team, as far as our post players,” sophomore guard Ameryst Alston said. “Our post players should have a field day.” Illinois leads the Big Ten in steals (225) and turnover margin per game (+6.05), something which Alston said the Buckeyes have to notice.
“They do play this funky zone,” Alston said. “They do a good job of turning other teams over. Limiting our turnovers will be a difference in the game.” Figuring out the defense of Illinois has been the focus this week for the Buckeyes as Alston and junior guard Raven Ferguson were the first two into the locker room for film study, something Alston said is common. “We spend a lot of time with each other off the court,” Alston said with a grin. “We have so much chemistry and I think us being close off the court helps on the court.” Alston and Ferguson have led the Buckeyes for most of the season in the scoring column, but sophomore guard Cait Craft ended her scoring struggles Sunday against Michigan State with 12 points on 50 percent shooting from the field. It was Craft’s first game notching double digits in points since a victory over Purdue Jan. 2. “I struggled the last couple of games after our Big Ten opener,” Craft said. “With the constant support of my teammates and constant encouragement, it is easy to get back in the flow.” Craft is tied for third on the team with both Moore and senior forward Martina Ellerbe with an average of 8.8 points per game. The Buckeyes know the matchup with Illinois will not be easy, Craft said. “Their style is a lot different, but they are still a very good team,” Craft said. “Any given night, anybody can beat anybody.” The Buckeyes are scheduled to take on the Illini Thursday at the Schottenstein Center at 7 p.m.

Andrew Lutz a ‘quiet leader’ for OSU men’s volleyball ZOE CHRYSOCHOOS Lantern reporter chrysochoos.2@osu.edu Andrew Lutz, redshirt-junior opposite for the Ohio State men’s volleyball team, picked up his second consecutive Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association Offensive Player of the Week honor Jan. 28. Lutz said earning individual honors aren’t something he worries about, and just wants to help the team get better. “I don’t think much about it, I have teammates out there on the court doing just as much as me who aren’t getting recognized,” Lutz said. Despite Lutz’s modesty when discussing the honor, he is definitely an asset to the team as a whole, his teammates and coach agree. Junior outside hitter Michael Henchy said Lutz’s ability on the court is truly a sight to behold. “If you’ve never seen him hit, you’re missing out because he makes everyone else look like they have cement in their shoes,” Henchy said. Coach Pete Hanson explained the amount of responsibility that falls on the player in the opposite position. This particular player stands opposite of the setter, and is the front and back row attack option.
Hanson said Lutz has impressed with how he has performed at the position. “Andy has accepted that challenge, and has really done a nice job with it,” Hanson said. Overall, Lutz leads the MIVA with a 3.77 kills per set average and is third in the league with a 4.39 points average. Lutz has put together four-straight matches in double-digit kills, including a season-high 17 against MIVA rival Lindenwood this past weekend. Lutz’s teammates and coach describe him as a “pretty quiet guy” before matches. “He normally only says a couple of words to me and the other players,” Henchy said. Hanson referred to Lutz as a “quiet leader.” “He (Lutz) is not someone who talks a lot on or off the court, however, does try to lead by example and by his actions,” Hanson said. Peter Heinen, redshirt-junior setter, said Lutz is always listening to music up until game time, and has an interesting taste. “He could be listening to country one song and then switch it to European dance music next,” Heinen said. Next up for the Buckeyes, Lutz will be looking to continue his run of good form when they travel to Chicago to take on Loyola Saturday at 5 p.m.
Men’s track ready for ‘competitive’ Indiana Relays TAYLOR CAMERON Lantern reporter cameron.883@osu.edu Always be moving forward. That’s the motto the Ohio State men’s track team has going into this weekend’s Indiana Relays in Bloomington, Ind. “It should be a competitive meet,” head coach Ed Beathea said on the teams the Buckeyes are set to run against. Teams like Alabama, Xavier, Notre Dame, Northern Illinois and Indiana are among those set to compete in the meet this weekend. Junior sprinter and hurdler Timothy Faust said he expects the opponents to push the team to greater success and even help him run his best race yet in the 200-meter dash. “This is a chance for us to compete against some good guys from the conference,” Faust said. He added that the team goal for the meet is to continue doing the things they have been doing right and to work hard. Redshirt-freshman sprinter and hurdler Donovan Robertson is expecting the same work ethic the Buckeyes have shown all season from at the meet. “Every week, we are getting better and better,” Robertson said. “Last week was a solid week, I hope we can continue.” Robertson added that getting the chance to compete against conference teams is good for the Buckeyes. “I couldn’t really tell you which (team) is bigger than the other but the fact that they are Big Ten conference teams I think they are all really important,” Robertson said.
At the meet, Robertson is slated to only run the 200-meter dash instead of his usual sprints and hurdles. Robertson said this is his first time running the 200-meter dash since high school, but he is excited to run it. Beathea said the coaches start to put runners in single events to get them more competition-minded as they move into February and get closer to the indoor Big Ten Championships. Aside from individuals competing at a high level this weekend, Beathea said he is looking forward to seeing the relay teams show what they can do. “We anticipate running our A (4x4) team this weekend,” Beathea said. “Right now (it’s) a top 10 relay team in the country, we hope (it) will be competitive.” As the indoor season continues on into another weekend of races, Beathea said it is exciting because team members are becoming more tightly knit. “It’s nice to go to the meet and see the guys engaging in what other guys are doing. Guys supporting each other, that’s what it is supposed to look like — less like an individual sport and more like a team sport,” Beathea said. That camaraderie of the team is something he anticipates will help make them successful this weekend. “We want to go out and compete. We want for other teams to know that we were at the meet,” Beathea said. “We want to have a presence at the competition.” The meet is scheduled to start Friday and continue through Saturday.

Matta from 6A season, so are OSU’s problems stemming from a lack of motivation against the traditionally weaker conference opponents? “I would hope not,” Matta said. “I would hope not. Yeah, I would hope not.” For Penn State — who has three conference losses by three points or less — a road win against OSU is “exciting,” Nittany Lion head coach Pat Chambers said. “I’m excited for the kids, for our players,” Chambers said after his team’s win. “It’s so hard, losing by a possession and the ball doesn’t bounce your way … I’m happy for them. They deserved to get one back, so to speak.” For whatever reason, OSU continues to struggle as it makes it way through the rugged Big Ten. The Buckeyes are just 1-5 since starting the season 15-0. “In this league, if you don’t come to play every night, you’re going to lose, as you see tonight,” Smith Jr. said, seemingly shaking off tears. “Top 25 teams at home don’t lose these games. And we lost.” Up next, OSU is set to travel to No. 14 Wisconsin (17-3, 4-3) to take on the Badgers at noon Saturday in Madison, Wis.

“Labor Day”
The Wexner Center for the Arts is bringing some tropical flair to the heart of Columbus. “Cruzamentos: Contemporary Art in Brazil,” a multidisciplinary arts exhibit exploring the culture of Brazil, officially opens to the public Saturday, but its initial roots trace back to 2011. Three years ago, the Wexner Center received a $782,300 grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation in order to support “a multidisciplinary, four-year initiative” in the arts. Erik Pepple, spokesman for the Wexner Center, said that without the Mellon Grant, this exhibit would not have been possible. “The Mellon Grant is an extraordinarily generous gift,” Pepple said. “It means a great deal to the Center that such an esteemed group would support our research and work with such enthusiasm.” The Wexner Center staff gathered together to brainstorm and initiate a direction in which to take this open-ended funding. After hours of discussion, Via Brasil, the overarching project of which Cruzamentos is a massive part, reared its head. “We took our cues from the university,” said Jennifer Lange, co-curator of the Cruzamentos exhibit. “The university was putting together its Global Gateways initiative and had plans to make a presence in areas around the world. We looked at all the countries they were looking at, but we were looking for something significant for the art world also. We decided that China was done often, so we chose Brazil.” Jennifer Wray, the marketing and media assistant of the Wexner Center, explained further why the staff took an interest in Brazil. “Brazil is having a moment in a lot of ways,” Wray said. “The World Cup is headed their way. The Summer Olympics are going to be happening. There is, politically, a lot of change and activity. The spotlight of the world is on Brazil right now.” Brazil is set to host the Summer Olympics in 2016. Lange explained Via Brasil is a massive initiative to immerse the arts community at the Wexner Center in the culture of the South American land. The project includes a book translations project, a contemporary film series, an art exhibition and a series of individual performing arts events, each of which are centered around Brazilian culture. In addition, there is funding for a post-doctoral position that allows a graduate student to teach a seminar based on the “Cruzamentos” exhibit. All the while, information about Brazil and its culture was mostly unknown to the Wexner Center staff. “We were really starting from scratch and we wanted to do it right. We wanted it to be meaningful and complete and we wanted to do it in a way it hadn’t been done before,” Lange said. “We were trying to figure out how to make connections and relationships. One of the curators said ‘Just come and spend a couple of weeks here and you’ll understand.’” Lange and her colleagues took to Brazil, spending eight weeks exploring the culture and art of the area. They took Portuguese classes, visited galleries and

Eventually, another theme for the project came to fruition. With the art as their guiding light, the staff at the Wexner Center began to put together Cruzamentos, which means “crossings” in Portuguese. The idea came together as the curators began to see that Brazilian artists were rarely pigeonholed into one specific style or medium. “‘Cruzamentos’ is a metaphorical meaning for hybridity and exchange,” Lange said. “We found that in Brazil, many of these artists cross between different artistic mediums. You can understand how it’s the same artist, but they’re equally adept in both mediums.”

For example, artist Lucia Koch, who has already begun transforming the lobby of the Wexner Center into her own mirror-themed work of art, creates architectural design, sculpture and videos. It was interesting, Lange said, that artists such as Koch were willing to travel to Columbus to work on pieces for the Wexner Center. “Artists are just as interested in learning about Columbus as we are about them,” Lange said. “It is unprecedented for so many artists to come at various points in the exhibition, especially coming from Brazil.
The Columbus Symphony Orchestra’s sixth segment in its Masterworks series, Romantic Passions, plans to showcase music representative of the Romantic era. The performance works scheduled to be performed Friday and Saturday are Antonín Dvorák’s “Cello Concerto in B Minor,” César Franck’s symphony in D minor and Edvard Grieg’s “Peer Gynt Suite No. 1.” Jacques Lacombe, music director of the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra, is slated to be a guest conductor at the CSO for the evening. Also scheduled to perform as a guest is prominent cellist Zuill Bailey, a University of Texas at El Paso professor of cello whose album, “Britten Cello Symphony/ Cello Sonata,” has reached No. 1 on the Classical Billboard Charts. He is slated to perform Dvorák’s “Cello Concerto.”
Bailey has been playing music since he was a small child, and explained that this particular cello concerto is close to his heart. “This is one of the first pieces that I played in public. One of my earliest memories is performing it with a youth symphony.” However, Bailey also said his fond memories aren’t the only reason why he likes this piece of music. “This piece is considered by most to be arguably the greatest cello concerto ever written and is one of the finest concertos for any instrument,” Bailey said. “I feel as though I’m tied to the front of a freight train with this piece — it has such power.” Guest conductor Lacombe said the pieces were selected for the Masterworks series because they were all written around the same time, in three different nationalistic styles, but each piece was influenced by the German tradition in some way.

[ spotlight] OPINION
R.I.P. Seeger, Tarantino axes movie
Courtesy of MCT
Courtesy of MCT
Pete Seeger performs at Soldiers and Sailors in Pittsburgh in September 1986. Seeger died Jan. 27 at the age of 94.
Quentin Tarantino attending the closing ceremony of the 5th Festival Lumiere in Lyon, France Oct. 20.
DANIEL BENDTSEN Senior Lantern reporter bendtsen.1@osu.edu This is part of a weekly series called “Pop Opinions” where The Lantern offers its take on the week’s pop culture news. Pete Seeger is dead at 94. The American Folk Music Revival was something special in pop music. Ironically, even the beatniks got on board with it. Amid the smoky rooms of Greenwich Village nightclubs, a second Lost Generation — despite their smart black turtlenecks and Ray-Bans — were able to latch onto something uncharacteristically genuine and heartfelt. Seeger was a beacon of everything that was good about that movement. He wrote honest yet hopeful songs that stood in stark contrast to the disillusioned hedonism of all the Kerouacs of his generation. He put a microscope on the United States’ shortcomings in a way that was scathing, and yet his warmth and decency made it palpable. Only a man so likeable could make communist sympathy seem wholesome during the middle of the Red Scare. If Martin Luther King Jr. provided the rulebook for the Civil Rights Movement, Seeger made the soundtrack. Sometimes, if I need a morale boost, I’ll throw on my old, scratchy Seeger LP and listen to him lead Carnegie Hall in “We Shall Overcome.” He prefaces the rendition with a simple message: “If you’d like to get out of a pessimistic mood yourself … go help those people down in Birmingham, Mississippi or Alabama. All kinds of jobs that need to be done — it takes hands and hearts and heads to do it. It takes human beings to do it, and then we’ll see this song come true.” The message of people like Seeger resonated and many of the movement’s goals came to fruition the next year when the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed. We can use as many Pete Seegers as we can get. With that, let’s take aim to make fun of other famous people, since having access to a computer allows us to. Justin Bieber gets a DUI Regular readers of this column (and others who live vicariously through celebrities) surely had their celebrity bloodlust satisfied last week when
Pregnant? need 24-Hour
Justin Bieber, a Universal Music Group product, was arrested for a DUI, drag racing and resisting arrest. In my eyes, he became immediately more likeable with the arrest. Universal Music Group relies on this man to make teenage girls’ panties drop, an exploitation that brings them millions of dollars. The more Bieber transforms from “edgy” to “ne’er-do-well,” the less dollars the parents of his teenage fans will be willing to drop on concert tickets. But maybe I think too highly of their parents, considering swarms of screaming fans still turned out to greet him in Toronto Wednesday night, where he arrived to face December assault charges. I don’t know what it will take, but I fully support any activity this young man gets himself into that hurts the return-on-investment by Universal Music Group. Just don’t do anything too dangerous. And maybe don’t hit limo drivers anymore. Tarantino axes movie So director Quentin Tarantino had written a screenplay called “The Hateful Eight.” But then someone leaked it onto the Internet, and Tarantino wasn’t so happy. Tarantino told deadline.com he was depressed, though he still has mustered the energy to put together a lawsuit against Gawker Media, which initially leaked the script. This effectively ruined the film in his eyes, and he immediately scrapped the project. I’m surprised, both because people don’t read anymore and because no one ever read screenplays to begin with. But he’s a big Hollywood insider, so I’ll take his word that a film’s potential dies when the audience is aware of the plot points. In that spirit, I suggest film studios cease distribution on the following types of movies: - Movies from The Black List, Hollywood’s annual survey of beloved but yet-to-be-produced screenplays - Book adaptations - True stories - Movies with trailers - Movies with premieres - Romantic comedies The Grammys This was the thing that happened where they give out awards to musicians who made a lot of money this year. Audiences invested their emotions while watching this thing and probably tweeted about something Lady Gaga did or something.

Wex from 8A They’re all so open.” In total, 80 works of art — six of which were made exclusively for the Wexner Center — by 35 different artists are set to be on display. “This is the biggest exhibition of contemporary Brazilian art ever in North America,” Wray said. “Many of these artists have never shown their work in the United States, so it’s exciting for us.” Lange said she believes Cruzamentos will expand goers’ perception of Brazilian culture. “My hope is that people will have heard enough about Brazil because of the cliched reasons: the soccer, the stories, the Olympics, crime and corruption,” Lange said. “I think it’s a fascinating country for people and people want to understand it. Some of those expectations based around clichés will be met, but not in cliche
CSO from 8A “It’s very interesting how they were able to bring out their own nationality, but through German influence.” Lacombe said. “The structure of the music was important — German music is built from the bottom up. In all those pieces, the music is an expression of passion, going forward, and then holding back. It is very passionate in the way the phrases are built.” Franck talent as an organist is reflected in his music, Lacombe continued. “Franck was an organist — you can hear this in his music,” Lacombe said. “In the score, there’s a lot of effects of soft to loud back to soft, it swells quickly. That comes directly from organ music. Frank tried to replicate what he did with his organ.” However, not all of the music selections were originally
ways at all...I think it will surprise people.” In addition to free entry to the exhibit, the Wexner Center is set to work with the Department of Art to make the exhibit more interactive for students. “There will be 10 featured artists from Brazil at the opening,” Lange said. “They will be coming to do seminars and studio visits with students in the department of the arts. There will be lots of moments for students to interact.” The Wexner Center is hosting a preview party Friday at 7 p.m. that is free and open to the public. The event, Wray said, is set to have snacks, drinks and a Brazilianthemed dance party, all scheduled to embrace the spirit of Brazil. “Cruzamentos” is slated to run from Saturday to April 20 in the Wexner Center’s galleries.
well-received, said Christopher Purdy, WOSU Classical 101.1 FM host and pre-concert lecturer for the CSO. “Franck’s ‘Symphony in D Minor’ is a big, sweeping, dramatic symphony, but the premiere was not well-liked. In fact, the orchestra did not even want to play it,” Purdy said. “People walked out. Franck was known as an organist, a builder, an outsider.” In spite of this fact, Purdy said he thought the work was wonderful. “This piece is very audiencefriendly. You could leave humming the tunes,” he said. The Columbus Symphony Orchestra is scheduled to perform the pieces at the Ohio Theatre, located at 39 E. State St. Performances are set to start each night at 8 p.m. on both Wednesday and Saturday, with tickets starting at $25 on Ticketmaster.
