The pros and cons of instituting a standardized college exit test are prompting various reactions from members of the Ohio State community. In an interview with The Lantern Sept. 23, OSU Interim President Joseph Alutto said the fact that college graduates do not have one standardized skill set is in some ways a “national problem.” “We have such variance in the quality of the educational experience,” Alutto said. “The variance in the quality of the student experience from institution to institution is astonishing, and so you understand the drive for some standardized measure so that people can have a confidence that whatever they’re investing is worthwhile, but it’s a very difficult thing to do.” One such voluntary test is the College Learning Assessment, CLA+ for short, which approximately 200 U.S. colleges and universities administer, according to The Wall Street Journal. According to the exam’s website, the test allows recent graduates to “use their verified scores to provide potential employers with evidence of their work readiness skill,” giving students something measurable to show for themselves beyond grade point average. Some OSU students said standardized tests are already prevalent in college and help employers see which students faced a tough curriculum. “I’m a pharmacy student, so I have to take the PCAT (Pharmacy College Admission Test) anyway,” said Mike Kowalczyk, a fourth-year in pharmaceutical sciences. “It would be a good idea because OSU is a tougher school than most and it would help show that.” The 90-minute long CLA+, created by New York

Some members of the OSU community have been reacting in various ways to the possibility of a standardized exit test. City-based nonprofit Council for Aid to Education, is based on a 1600-point scale. By asking performance-based questions, the exam evaluates critical thinking, problem solving, scientific and quantitative reasoning, writing and the ability to critique and make arguments. There are some students who believe a single standardized test like the CLA+ is too arbitrary of a benchmark because of the diverse nature of skills that college students have. “How is an art major going to be able to do the same things that a history major or a CSE major

is going to be able to do?” said Mitch Gerhart, a second-year in business administration. “There are so many different majors and so many different jobs that I don’t know how it would gauge anything.” Alutto expressed a similar concern. “A student passionate about art is going have a different set of skills than someone who is interested in engineering or someone whose passion is poetry or Middle East literature or psychology or business,” he said. There are also other groups that have created tests to objectively test student performance. The Lumina Foundation, an independent, private foundation focused on higher education success based in Indianapolis and the MacArthur Foundation, an independent foundation based in Chicago that focuses on increasing knowledge, have both designed knowledge standardization and skill testing measures for graduates, and some companies, such as General Mills Inc. and Procter & Gamble Co., use their own applicant assessment tests. One incentive for instituting a test is to form an objective indicator of student success. According to a report by The Economist last year, the average college GPA increased to 3.11 in 2006 from 2.52 in the 1950s and the average number of A’s distributed by professors has increased as well, leading some to believe grades may no longer be a fair indicator. Other students, though, said adding a test to the post-graduation job search only adds challenges. “When there’s such diverse offering of majors, how are you going to have one standardized test prove what they’ve learned? No job is a test — you don’t take tests for your job,” said Matt Janette, a fourth-year in international business and Arabic. “It’s ridiculous to add to the amount of studying that students already have to do, with the amount

Dave Dziak Lantern reporter dziak.5@osu.edu The Ohio State University Police Division has recently been recognized as an elite player in U.S. law enforcement. The Division became one of the 59 accredited college law enforcement agencies nationwide, a recognition less than 10 percent of the 680 college level agencies receive, according to a Division announcement in early September. The accreditation lasts for three years, with annual reports to be submitted each year, according to a university press release. The Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc., is a nonprofit organization that accredits police departments across the country and has international representation with countries including Canada and Mexico. CALEA is also responsible for developing standards and best practices for law enforcement agencies which gives a “leading edge for agencies to use” in writing and following procedural information, CALEA deputy director Craig Hartley said. One of the main reasons departments seek accreditation is to provide “elite public safety” and avoid “paper tigers,” which means a policy that is on paper but isn’t enforced, to ensure the division is following the policies it puts forth, Hartley said. “It’s a real testament to service,” Hartley said of

The CALEA accreditation process involves five steps: enrollment, self-assessment, on-site assessment, commission review and decision and maintaining compliance and reaccreditation. The initial accreditation fee was $8,400 and the annual continuation fee for OSU will be $4,065, University Police Deputy Chief Richard Morman, who was the person in charge of orchestrating the accreditation process, said in an email.

OSU began the process in August 2010, but its involvement with CALEA started long ago. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, CALEA selected OSU’s University Police as “Field Review Agency,” which meant OSU was essentially looked at as an example, Morman said. It wasn’t until University Police Chief Paul Denton took over in 2006, though, that OSU began to

Campaign gets students ‘moo-ving’ to drink milk Dave Dziak Lantern reporter dziak.5@osu.edu For many students, going to college equates to cutting back on calcium, but some Ohio State investigators want to change the pattern. An OSU campaign to get students to consume more dairy products ended in September after “positively impacting calcium intake in students,” according to principal investigator Carolyn Gunther. The campaign, “Calcium Keeps You Moo-ving,” aimed to inform students of the health benefits that come with consuming dairy products and lasted from the beginning of school year to early September. The campaign reached about 5,000 people a day, totalling approximately 80,000 people, according to project manager Jamie Seger. Some OSU students were involved with the campaign as well. “It was kind of cool. This campaign was different in the sense that it was a social media campaign,” said Brittney Batcho, a fourth-year in human development and family science, who assisted with the campaign. The campaign recruited the help of some OSU athletes, including basketball player Aaron Craft, who was quoted in one promotional poster

saying, “Chocolate milk is my favorite drink. I drink it for its recovery benefits after a workout and because it tastes phenomenal!” The American Dairy Association contributed $50,000 for funding for research and collaborated on promotional materials, Gunther said. Batcho, who is pursuing a minor in nutrition, said the campaign was primarily geared toward freshmen because when students come to campus, they don’t always have dairy products immediately at their disposal. “When kids leave home, you see a precipitous drop in diet quality,” said Gunther, an assistant professor of human sciences. The problem is access, said Gunther, who worked on a milk vending machine study for the past several years. “They lose easy accessibility to milk and dairy products,” Gunther said. For her study, milk vending machines were placed in buildings across campus such as Baker Hall, Drackett Tower and Taylor Tower. According to Gunther, the study showed students with easier access to milk and dairy products were more likely to consume them and thus consume more calcium.

campus OSU forms partnership to facilitate cancer research Daniel Bendtsen Lantern reporter bendtsen.1@osu.edu Ohio State announced it has licensed nearly 100 issued and pending patents to Microlin Bio Inc., a startup company based in New York. The deal was announced Thursday. The patents cover technologies that use microRNA, a molecule that functions in regulation of gene expression, to diagnose and treat cancer. OSU will not release the value of the deal, per the terms of the agreement, but Wexner Medical Center spokeswoman Melanie Baker said Monday that Microlin Bio paid the university an up-front fee and OSU will hold an equity position in the company and receive royalties. As a result of the deal, Microlin Bio owns the patents and retains them for the duration of the patents’ life, Baker said. The technologies were developed by Dr. Carlo Croce, the chair of the College of Medicine, and College of Pharmacy professor Robert Lee over the last decade, along with collaborators from the National Cancer Institute and the National Institutes of Health. Croce was among the first to identify the relationship between microRNA and cancer about 10 years ago, Baker said. Croce discovered that in tumors, many microRNA are either over- or under-expressed. Based on these findings, Lee developed a way to treat cancer with a nucleic acid delivery system, which will either introduce certain microRNA or inhibit them based on the need. Lee said Microlin Bio and OSU are working on a delivery system that will coat the treatment so the body doesn’t break it down before it gets to the tumor. Lee said the actual means of introducing the

This licensing agreement will help translate these discoveries into transformational changes in the diagnosis and treatment of several human cancers.

Carlo Croce Chair of the College of Medicine treatment to the tumor remain to be determined, but said it would take place through an IV. Lee also said he hopes because of the capabilities of OSU, the partnership with Microlin Bio will continue into the future. Microlin Bio was founded by entrepreneur Joseph Hernandez. Hernandez has previously commercialized other biotechnologies through a number of companies, including Qiagen, Affymetrix and Merck. Hernandez said in a released statement, “partnering with Ohio State was a logical decision for Microlin Bio Inc. … Dr. Croce and Dr. Lee are genuine thought leaders in their disciplines. The technologies they and their colleagues created will truly change the diagnostic and therapeutic landscape of cancer and ultimately patient care.” Croce said he thinks the partnership will make a difference. “This licensing agreement will help translate these discoveries into transformational changes in the diagnosis and treatment of several human cancers. I am also pleased that the Ohio State University, its cancer program and the people of Ohio will benefit from the agreement,” he said in a released statement. Microlin Bio representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment Monday.

Some Starbucks cups are sporting the letters #AJO in memory of Alyssa Josephine O’Neill.

Some Starbucks cups are sporting a three-letter message unrelated to the cup’s content these days: #AJO. These are the initials of Alyssa Josephine O’Neill, a Pennsylvania State University-Behrend student who died of an epileptic seizure Sept. 4. “She was a beautiful soul, and she was very energetic and outgoing,” said Mackenzie Presta, a second-year in psychology at Ohio State who went to high school with O’Neill. “You know those people you can connect to and who make you feel very comfortable, and she was definitely one of those people.” One of O’Neill’s last tweets before her untimely death asked her mother if they could go to Starbucks to get a Pumpkin Spice Latte. After her death, her parents bought 40 of the drinks their daughter never got to try, which they proceeded to give away to the next 40 people who walked in at the Millcreek Mall in Erie, Pa. Each cup had #AJO written on its side. Back in Columbus, Presta and her roommate, who is also from Erie, Pa., bought 10 Pumpkin Spice Lattes to “pay it forward” to the next 10 people coming in to remember their former classmate. The purchases by O’Neill’s parents started an international movement of people paying it forward in ways from coffee to restaurant bills and has

caught the attention of celebrities like singer LeAnn Rimes, who tweeted from her account @leannrimes Sept. 28, “Random act of kindness #1 for the day, bought cupcakes for the crew of our show. Sweetest people ever! #AJO.” The AJO Forever in our Hearts Facebook page, which seeks to raise epilepsy awareness and pay tribute to O’Neill, had more than 33,500 likes Monday evening. Ellen Shirk, a second-year in architecture and a friend of Presta’s, jumped on the movement and paid it forward at the coffee shop, The Caffeine Element, in the Health Sciences Library. She said the movement has grown to be bigger than beverages. “It’s definitely (about) more than just the coffee,” she said. Kelly Bolt, an administrative associate in the Wexner Medical Center, received one of the lattes Shirk paid for and reached out to her on Twitter to thank her. “I knew nothing about it. (I) didn’t know that somebody, at 18 years old, could die of something like this,” Bolt said. “I thought it was a great idea to bring awareness to not only this girl and to remember her, but to also bring awareness to the problem.” O’Neill would be happy to know her memory is helping to educate others about her disease, Presta said. “I know she was such a loving person that she would be doing it right here, too, if it was for someone else,” she said.

From military strikes to farming, drones segueing into rural America Dave Dziak Lantern reporter dziak.5@osu.edu Drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles, have been used overseas for U.S. military strikes, but they could soon be seen flying over fields in rural America. Precision Hawk, a company that makes UAVs for civilian purposes, is touring the country showcasing its technology. One such stop was at Ohio State’s Farm Science Review in mid-September. The three-foot, three-pound drone flew over the 1,200 acre Molly Caren Agricultural Center in London, Ohio, three times in live demonstrations during FSR. FSR has been an expo for cutting-edge farm equipment for 50 years, and Precision Hawk CEO Ernest Earon said UAVs could become another tool for farmers to survey their land. “I want them to use the plane the way they would use a hammer,” he said in a quote provided to The Lantern by Lia Reich, a spokeswoman for Precision Hawk, in a Skype message. “In order to get really good data into work flows for farmers, into their systems, I’d love to see a full integration where we are able to completely close the loop on farm inputs and precision agriculture.” Before the drone launches, a flight plan is programmed by either plugging in the latitude and longitude coordinates of the field or by uploading a shape file. The UAV then takes off, flies over the field and lands from where it took off, Precision Hawk field technician Brandon Eickhoff said. Eickhoff said each platform will be tailored to the specific consumer, including what sensors are on board. There are five available sensors that can be purchased, including visual, thermal, multispectral, hyperspectral and sensors that piece together a 3D picture of the surveyed land, according to the Precision Hawk website. Peter Thomison, an OSU professor of horticulture and crop science, said this data could prove invaluable information to farmers. “We could get a pretty good reading on growth and development, weed control, frost and wind damage and scouting,” he said. The drone has seven to eight sensors on board that monitor conditions and adjust accordingly, Eickhoff said. If the weather becomes too inclement to fly or the battery becomes too low to continue its mission, it returns on

its own. There is a remote control function to adjust if necessary, which was used at the FSR demonstrations for safety purposes to ensure control of the drone. Eickhoff said the user interaction aspect would essentially be to preprogram the flight, toss the drone and wait. Once the flight is over, the data can be uploaded to Precision Hawk via a microSD card, the Internet, a USB connection or Bluetooth. Once the data is uploaded, Precision Hawk puts together a picture of the field and provides data requested by the consumer. The drone, as it stands now, would cost about $25,000, Eickhoff said, however, that is a preliminary number and the price should be significantly less when the drone comes to market. “By this time next year, it will be well-rounded. The kinks and bugs will be worked out and anyone can own it,” he said. He added that some of the software will be released within the next month or two and the whole system should be available for farming season next year. Reich said the company is not yet releasing what the final cost would be, partially for “competitive reasons.” “It’s going to be a platform that is affordable, or as affordable as other pieces of field equipment a farmer would normally use in their day-to-day,” Reich said. Thomison said he sees the value in drones for agricultural use but is unsure about the costs involved. “It’s in its infancy right now,” he said. He said it will be much more likely to see seed companies, fertilizer companies, consulting firms and co-ops use the technology for their clients, as opposed to the average farmer. OSU assistant extension professor Barry Ward agreed. “My guess is where it will begin will be more on a consulter basis,” he said. Some issues Thomison and Ward cited were the turnaround time and the fact that Ohio’s aging farmer population might not have the knowhow to operate UAV technology. The average age of the farmer is 57, according to an OSU Extension article. “It depends on the diversity of personnel on the farm,” Ward said. According to Ward, the typical Ohio farm size “varies widely” but commercial operations in Ohio tend to be 1,200 to 2,500 acres. “As you go farther west in the corn belt, you might see a greater need for it,” Thomison said.

A drone is presented at the Molly Caren Agricultural Center in London, Ohio, during the OSU Farm Science Review in mid-September.

However, Eickhoff is confident the system is user-friendly enough to where those issues won’t be a problem. “It’s simple enough,” he said. “The older generation is more tech-savvy and we’re making the platform more user-friendly. Plan the field, press launch and go.” Drones could be used not only for agricultural purposes, but also for mining, forestry, livestock, geology, surveying, 3D topography, research and education, according to the Precision Hawk website. “Needless to say, this is a hot button issue getting a lot of attention,” Thomison said.

Education from 1A of pressure that people are already under. You’re not talking about getting into college, you’re talking about getting a job.” Janette also raised other concerns with implementing a standardized measure. “The other thing that’s scary, because you see it in high schools a lot, is being taught to the test — so instead of going to college and learning about the subject that you choose to learn about, you have to learn for this test and teachers will teach for the test because that’s how they’ll be judged,” he said. Alutto said the real dilemma has been figuring out what a widespread test would cover. “On the one hand, I’m very supportive of the notion that there ought to be some measures. It’s finding that that’s difficult,” he said. “The (Committee on Institutional Cooperation) decided it was gonna try to do that and we’re still in the middle of it but we spent two years just trying to figure out … how we would do that given the diversity of institutions represented just in the CIC. So when you try to do that on a national scale, it’s just not easy.” The CIC is made up of all of the Big Ten schools — including University of Maryland and Rutgers University, which are set to join the Big Ten in 2014

Police from 1A become serious with the idea of accreditation. “Past chiefs hadn’t worked at an accredited agency before coming to Ohio State,” Morman said. “Chief Denton came from the (Columbus Division of Police), which is accredited, and he saw the value in becoming accredited.” Once the self-assessment phase began, OSU looked at its policies and practices to make sure they were in line with the CALEA standards. OSU initially began revising policies by working with the Columbus Police, City of Dublin Police, Kent State University Police Services and Purdue University Police Department, all of which are already accredited, according to University Police Officer Adam Tabor, who worked with policy-writing during the process. “More than 90 percent of the standards were already met before the accreditation process began,” Tabor said. “Accreditation bolsters support and feeling that you do have a good police organization.” University Police is also a State of Ohio Accreditation Resources member, which provided additional resources such as reviewing the policies University Police had in place. “We don’t feel that accreditation made us do anything we weren’t already doing,” Tabor said. “It puts a stamp of approval on what we were already doing.” Tabor said most of the self-assessment phase involved putting together a 500-page document called the “General Orders,” which lists policies and procedures. He said a majority of that was simply writing down policies that were already in place, but weren’t in writing. Morman agreed it was mostly a matter of getting things down on paper. “There were plenty of things that we were already doing that met standards, but we didn’t have a written policy,” Morman said.

“As far as I know, no other university across the country is doing this,” she said of the study.

— and the University of Chicago. It aims to share expertise, leverage campus resources and collaborate on programs, according to the CIC website. Brian Rhea, a fourth-year in biochemistry, said he thought experience should mean a lot more than a test score. “Out of all the standardized tests I’ve taken so far, I honestly don’t think I used much from those,” he said. “I haven’t taken any of those skills that I’ve studied for or learned for into any jobs I’ve applied for. I work in a research lab now and no standardized test has ever prepared me for what I’m doing there. I think experience is way more important than standardized testing and I think learning what you learn, not just learning for a test, is worth more than any standardized test.” While the CLA+ is open to all students, OSU assistant vice president of media and public relations Gayle Saunders told The Lantern in early September it was still unknown if OSU would one day offer the test to students. The cost for universities to participate in the 2013-2014 CLA+ is $7,000 for the first 200 students and $35 per student thereafter, according to the CLA+ website. Daniel Bendtsen and Caroline Keyes contributed to this story.

An example of that was the Clery Act, an early 1990s U.S. bill requiring colleges and universities to publish annual security logs, have a public crime log and issue timely warnings of crime. Some of the biggest changes came about while writing policies for the regional campus police departments, such as OSU Lima and the Agricultural Technical Institute in Wooster. This involved developing policy which was tailored to the “uniqueness of regional officers” but still fell under the General Orders of University Police in Columbus. After the self-assessment, CALEA visited OSU in April to verify University Police was following the 188 required standards, including use of reasonable force, search and seizure and training standards. Tabor said much of the reasoning behind going through the three-year accreditation process was to bring in a voluntary watchdog to review the standards in place and to raise them to an international level of excellence. Accreditation also helps with liability issues, he added. “We operate in a dangerous and fluid atmosphere where split second decisions have to be made,” he said. By having policies in place, OSU can point to the standards put in place by CALEA as a method of reasoning. Hartley said the accreditation represents a step forward by University Police. “It’s absolutely a commitment by OSU to do the very best job they can possibly do, and shows a willingness to be transparent,” Hartley said. “As a student, you ought to be proud of your organization.” Morman said the process was difficult and timeconsuming, especially while still having to perform day-to-day activities, but was “definitely worth the effort.” Tabor agreed. “It’s part of what this university expects and appreciates,” he said.

drink it can still get their calcium from other foods. She suggested dark green vegetables such as broccoli, kale and collard greens, or foods like beans and almonds that provide calcium as well. Gunther said those who worked on the campaign plan to send out an electronic survey to all OSU Columbus campus undergraduates to gauge awareness of the campaign and “potential perceived impact on awareness of calcium needs and impact on diet behavior.”

Eric Seger Sports editor seger.25@osu.edu The Ohio State Buckeyes sport the nation’s longest winning streak at 17 games as they head into their first Big Ten road game of 2013. The Buckeyes (5-0, 1-0) are set to face an opponent whose record is also unblemished — the Northwestern Wildcats — and will be playing under the lights for the second week in a row. OSU coach Urban Meyer has faced Northwestern only once in his coaching career, winning a 43-42 thriller in 2001 while at Bowling Green. ESPN College GameDay will be in Evanston, Ill., for the game, and the Wildcats will have had an extra week to prepare, coming off a bye week. Who will replace Christian Bryant? Coming off a physical matchup with the Wisconsin Badgers, Meyer said the team is being careful this week in practice. “We had to be very cautious on how we operated (Sunday),” Meyer said. “I’m going to be very smart how we do Tuesday and Wednesday, because that’s usually very physical. Today (Monday) I’m getting a feel for how our guys are when they are going through the training room and treatment. It is what it is. It’s part of the season.” Meyer and his staff have the task of replacing senior safety Christian Bryant, who broke his left ankle late in the 31-24 win. Likely to replace Bryant is redshirt-senior safety Corey “Pitt” Brown, who Meyer said has a bit of advantage over other players like freshman Vonn Bell or redshirt-freshman Tyvis Powell because of his experience. Special teams coordinator and cornerbacks coach Kerry Coombs agreed. “I think as we sit here (Monday) afternoon that “Pitt” Brown will go in there and play,” Coombs said. “I don’t know exactly the configuration of how all those guys are fit going into the week and some of that will be developed and discussed during practice.” Big Ten recognition For the third week in a row, an OSU player has been named Big Ten offensive or co-offensive

Redshirt-senior safety Corey ‘Pitt’ Brown (3) warms up before a game against Buffalo Aug. 31 at Ohio Stadium. OSU won, 40-20. player of the week. Earning the honor against the Badgers was junior quarterback Braxton Miller, following in the footsteps of redshirt-senior Kenny Guiton, who won the award while filling in for Miller the previous two weeks. Miller threw for 198 yards and four touchdowns against Wisconsin and added running 83 yards rushing on 22 carries. “I thought his preparation for the game was one of the best he’s had,” Meyer said of Miller. “His practice was one of the best he’s had as far as Tuesday and Wednesday and Thursday. I thought his accuracy on the deep ball was outstanding.” OSU’s quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator Tom Herman was a little harder on the Buckeye signal caller.

“Not great, he still made some mental mistakes that can be corrected in terms of some reads,” Herman said. “We’ve still got to do a better job of when he does decide to scramble of going vertically, not losing yards. It’s much easier to call second and eight than it is to call second and 14.” Herman mentioned how OSU would rather run the ball than throw it, saying “when we throw it, it’s because you have inhibited our ability to run it.” Prepping for the Wildcat defense is similar in that sense. “There’s a lot of different ways that you can say ‘let’s stop the run,’” Herman said. “How they

The 3-6 Ohio State field hockey team is set to make its return to Buckeye Varsity Field Tuesday to take on Louisville in the team’s first home game since Sept. 14. The Buckeyes lost their first Big Ten game Saturday, when they fell to Michigan State, 3-2. OSU coach Anne Wilkinson said returning to the Buckeyes’ home field will hopefully relax the team and bring out the support the players need. “We are excited to get home,” Wilkinson said. “It’s not that, we don’t mind being on the road, but to be in front of our own crowd, we’re hoping some people will come out tomorrow … it’s really important we get some support out here.” She said her players are doing the basics of the game well — they just need to focus on executing what they know in pressure situations. “Going back to our fundamentals, I think structurally we are doing a lot of the right things — we just need to focus on our basic skills, doing basic skills under pressure,” Wilkinson said. “We need to be able to handle that because Louisville is going to come with two or three people (to the ball at once), and we have got to be really sharp.” Senior forward Sophia Pifer said she expects the team to come out hard against the

We are hoping to come out with a win. We are going to be on our home turf, so we want to come out and play strong and really represent what Ohio State field hockey is. Sophia Pifer Senior forward for the OSU field hockey team competition and excite the crowd about the game. “We are hoping to come out with a win,” Pifer said. “We are going to be on our home turf, so we want to come out and play strong and really represent what Ohio State field hockey is.” Junior midfielder Kaitlyn Wagner said playing at home will bring comfort to the team, and they will be able to focus on their normal routine. “I am excited to be home again because we’ve been away for so long, and always having to travel kind of ruins the moment,” Wagner said. “I think we always have an advantage playing at home because it is easier for us to get pumped up.” Wagner said the focus of the Buckeyes’ offense and defense has been different after scouting Louisville and the team has been focusing on game situations to prepare.

“Offensively, we’ve focused on playing in numbers-down situations, which we have been struggling with the past few games,” Wagner said. “Defensively, we’ve been really focusing on strict and disciplined markings.” Pifer said the team’s ability to work as a strong team will help them succeed in the games to come. She said the teamwork effort is ongoing and they all depend on each other for support throughout the game. “We are really an excellent unit,” Pifer said. “We work really well on and off the field, and I think that has just continued to get better and better every game.” Wilkinson said she does not want her players to complicate the game by forcing plays that are not easy. She wants her team to be in control through the whole match. “We need to make the simple passes, not try to make killer passes all the time,” Wilkinson said. “Keep it simple and play fast.” Tuesday’s match is scheduled for 3 p.m. The Buckeyes have another home game scheduled against Ohio University Sunday at 1 p.m.

Despite 5 game skid, playoffs offer fresh start for Cincinnati Sports Columnist

The Cincinnati Reds’ road to the 2013 World Series became a bit tougher after losing five consecutive games to end the season, including a three-game sweep at home against the Pittsburgh Pirates. With the sweep, the Reds dropped from first place in the National League wild card to second, surrendering the top spot to the Pirates. With that, the Reds now must travel to PNC Park in Pittsburgh for a one-game playoff with the Pirates Dan Hessler to decide which team will play the hessler.31@osu.edu St. Louis Cardinals in the National League Division Series. All of that might come off as bad news for Reds fans, and it definitely isn’t good news, but here is the beauty of the playoffs — none of that matters anymore. It is win or go home. The past is the past. The Reds should be fully healthy in Tuesday night’s game, something the team struggled with for most of the year. Starting second baseman Brandon Phillips’ recent MRI on his ankle came back negative and firstyear outfielder Shin-Soo Choo returned from a thumb injury earlier in the week. Both players should be ready to play Tuesday. Also, critical players who missed large portions of the regular

season, starting pitcher Johnny Cueto and outfielder Ryan Ludwick, are back and have had some time to wipe the rust off. Cueto has only pitched in 12 innings after missing most of the season with nagging shoulder injuries. However, he has allowed just one run in that span — a home run — and he has racked up 10 strikeouts. I’m not going to go yelling, “He’s back!” but he’s throwing like he is, and he is scheduled to start Tuesday. Cincinnati is also entering the game with another recent addition in not-so-secret weapon outfielder Billy Hamilton, who is just barely 23 years old. Reds beat writer John Fay said Monday night that Hamilton has not yet been named to the team’s postseason roster, but I think he should be. In just 13 games this season for the Reds, the youngster has stolen 13 bases in 14 attempts. In other words, he is essentially averaging one stolen base per game. Granted, this is a small sample size, but he did set a record last year with 155 stolen bases in 132 games for Cincinnati’s Triple-A team, the Louisville Bats. Tuesday’s game will be tough, and I’m expecting the Pirates to bring all they have. Star outfielder Andrew McCutchen will more than likely get a hit or two off Cueto. I’m expecting Pirates starting pitcher Francisco Liriano to strike out Choo, Phillips or Joey Votto — maybe even all three. But, I’m also expecting the Reds to walk out of Pittsburgh with a win. I’m expecting outfielder Jay Bruce to hit a home run. I’m

Call me a homer, but this is what Cincinnati has been preparing for. after last year’s debacle to eventual World series Champion san Francisco Giants, the team brought in new pieces to ensure things wouldn’t be the same this year. expectations were raised this season, and it is now time for them to be met. the game is set to take place tuesday at 8:07 p.m.

Football from 4A decide to do it and how they have, at least on video, is a little bit different than Wisconsin, but i think that the commitment to stopping the run is not going to change.” Working on special teams Freshman punter Cameron Johnston was named Big ten special teams player of the week after planting all six of his punts inside Wisconsin’s 20-yard line. Meyer said he was pleased with the australian’s performance against the Badgers, but that improvement is still needed. “i’ve graded him about a C- (through five games),” Meyer said. “His average hang time was just under four seconds, which is completely unacceptable.” the punter agreed with his head coach, despite

having a 55-yard punt late in the game that gave the Badgers poor field position as they tried to tie the game. “it’s great to finally get out there and be able to finally have a really good game, but there’s still plenty of stuff to work on,” Johnston said. “But right now, that’s really good.” Coombs said the entire special teams unit must be efficient, not just the punter. “We want to cover kicks, we want to split the field and make sure the other team doesn’t return the ball,” Coombs said. the Buckeyes and Wildcats are set to face off saturday at 8 p.m. at ryan Field.

Animation premieres win with return of Homer, Peter, Stan Jake Niles Lantern reporter niles.19@osu.edu Sundays are back on track for hours of immense shenanigans and side-splitting humor. If you were busy watching the “Breaking Bad” finale Sunday, then you probably missed the at least two season premieres from Fox’s famous trio: “The Simpsons,” “Family Guy” and “American Dad.” All three are looking good upon first impressions, with some having slight hiccups in their old age. The following will be a brief recap, as well as a prediction for the seasons, with the scale based entirely on the ability to contain my attention with laughter. “The Simpsons” Homer and the gang turned 25 this season, and with more than 500 episodes aired, it is hard to remember a time when they were not on television. But with its age, comes a struggle: The writers have to find something they haven’t done before. In the recent past, the show has pulled at straws, trying to find a fresh angle in such a grounded and familiar universe. We all know what the Simpsons family is like by now, and we expect them to behave in certain ways: Homer is the dumb one, Lisa is the smart one, and so on. Luckily, creator Matt Groening knows this and started the season premiere off with a satire on the Showtime hit show “Homeland,” vicariously named “Homerland.” In it, Homer loses his memory

and becomes a sort of sleeper cell . To his family’s amazement, he refuses pork and beer at dinner, and they immediately sense something is wrong. The episode pokes fun at how the characters are supposed to behave, but admittedly shows its age in the process — the laughs were few and stretched thin throughout the episode. In recent years, it seems like “The Simpsons” staff has changed its humor to adapt to the upcoming “Family Guy” audience. Its attention to small details and cutaways were prominent throughout the episode, but instead of helping the humor, it dulled it. Hopefully the staff can change a few gears in the machine before it wears out. It was not a bad episode, but it did feel aged and in a rush to keep up with the modern audience. “Family Guy” Seth MacFarlane has been extremely busy recently with directing, producing and voice acting on multiple shows and movies, but that hasn’t stopped him from producing a hilariously fresh new “Family Guy.” Merely 10 seconds into the episode, titled “Finder’s Keepers,” I was clutching my sides in laughter. “Family Guy’s” hilarity is back for Season 12 and shows no signs of slowing down. The episode followed the typical “Family Guy” formula, complete with adult humor and situations, some of which tiptoed the line of what shouldn’t be allowed on television. MacFarlane and the other voice actors are still superb, and the cutaways are still way over-thetop and drawn out. The episode involved a treasure hunt, mimicking movies like “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World” (1963) or even “Rat Race” (2001), but

rather than start with a legitimate clue, it began with Stewie coloring on a restaurant’s child placemat (would anyone think otherwise when it comes to “Family Guy?”). The episode was without a doubt hilarious, but nothing really stood out as groundbreaking. The jokes were strong, and if MacFarlane can keep them coming, “Family Guy” fans are in for a rewarding season. “American Dad!” It has always been the red-headed step-child of the bunch after its 2005 premiere, but that doesn’t stop “American Dad!” from pulling an audience. As the last show of the bunch to broadcast Sunday nights, it was refreshing to see a program free of cutaways and other distracting quirks. That didn’t stop it from being off-the-wall weird, however, especially in an episode titled “Steve and Snot’s TestTubular Adventure.” MacFarlane tackles the topic of prom and takes his own spin on it. Revolving around the nerdy son Steve and his acne-filled friend Snot, the two set out to clone dates for the upcoming prom with the sole goal of losing their virginity. There are boundless mishaps along the way, with a surprise (including an alien babysitter) around every corner. The writing was superb, but the awkward topic angle proved difficult to burst out laughing over. I’m positive MacFarlane has more up his sleeves for his newer sitcom, and I am looking forward to where he takes Stan and his family.

Local improv groups prepare for comedy war

Recipes lack flavor in 2 Chainz cookbook

Abigail Hofrichter Lantern reporter hofrichter.3@osu.edu

Amy Macynski Lantern reporter macynski.3@osu.edu

A war of comedy is about to ensue. Improv Wars is a competition among local improv groups who battle it out for the audience’s approval. Brad Shimp, coordinator of Improv Wars, said he is excited about this year’s competition at Studio 35 Cinema and Drafthouse. “There are 12 groups competing, which is really amazing,” Shimp said. Improv Wars consists of three rounds, taking place Tuesday, Oct. 15, Nov. 11, with a final set to take place Nov. 19. Four groups are lined up to compete each night, and the winner of each will proceed to the championship. Local improv groups include Fake Bacon, #Hashtag and State of Play, as well as Ohio State’s own 8th Floor Improv and Fishbowl Improv, Shimp said. In the past, Improv Wars has taken place at Funny Bone Comedy Club and Restaurant in the Easton Town Center, but Shimp said he hopes the installation at Studio 35 will bring the event more infamy. “The venue is closer to downtown and campus, where more people who would come to an improv event,” Shimp said. Fishbowl Improv secretary Rachel Rustemeyer, who is a fourth-year in French, said the group is excited for the change of locations as well, as they are hoping to see more university students. “It’s also a really neat part of town with a fun, trendy feeling, which makes it more exciting to perform there,” Rustemeyer said of Clintonville. Mitra Jouhari, president of 8th Floor Improv and a

Tauheed Epps, better known as 2 Chainz, may be a rapper with a lot of zest, but the recipes in his new cookbook are lacking in flavor. The digital cookbook, “#MEALTIME,” comes with his newest album, “B.O.A.T.S. II #METIME,” which released Sept. 10. It includes 15 recipes, including sauces and salsas. The book includes a forward with tips on how to make the best of the cookbook, including to “cook within your comfort zone,” and to “freestyle your cooking until you (and whoever is eating alongside you) enjoy it.” It also includes pictures of each dish with suggestions for presentation. I made two of the recipes from the rapper’s cookbook: his chicken marsala and garlic mashed potatoes. Both recipes began with instructions that had nothing to do with cooking. I do not own an “Alexander Wang Tee” so I was unable to wear it whilst “zoning out” and listening to “U Da Realest” before preparing the chicken, which must have led to the bland flavor of my dish. I do not own a four-finger ring, so it was unnecessary to “carefully place it on a side table before starting to cook” the mashed potatoes. The lack of flavor was not due to a lack of seasoning; I followed the rapper’s instructions in the forward of the cookbook and seasoned with each step of the recipes. I think the lack of flavor

Members of OSU’s Fishbowl Improv group perform during their Welcome Week Show Aug. 19. Fishbowl Improv is set to participate in Improv Wars, a competition between improv groups, starting Oct. 1. third-year in psychology, said the festival is a great opportunity to unite the Columbus improv community, and Daniel Cleveland, a member of Fishbowl Improv and secondyear in biomedical engineering, also said he hopes the event will give groups a chance to share the local improv scene. “Columbus’ scene is certainly healthy and effervescent, but it just needs a spotlight,” Cleveland said. Improv Wars brings the audience into the show, asking for suggestions to prompt the group’s next scene. This involvement and approachability of the event makes improv appeal to a vast crowd, Cleveland said. “Improv is a very blue collar comedy,” Cleveland said. “Anything goes, so the nature of any subject can be explored.” Additionally, Rustemeyer explained that laughter is a “universally appealing pastime.”

“Improv is full of the biggest goofballs you’ll ever meet who just want to hang out and have a good time. I think that’s the college mentality summed up,” Rustemeyer said. Improv Wars is just one of the improv events local groups are preparing for this October, Shimp said. An improv festival, Columbus Unscripted, is scheduled to take place Oct. 24 to 27 at the Wild Goose Creative at 2491 Summit St. In addition, if the event at Studio 35 is successful, Shimp said Studio 35 hopes to do return engagements in upcoming winter and spring months. Students are encouraged to not only attend the shows but also get involved, Shimp said. “Getting up on stage is frightening and exhilarating — it’s just fun,” Shimp said. The Improv Wars shows are all slated to begin at 7 p.m. on their respective dates. Tickets are $8 and can be purchased directly from Studio 35.

Rapper 2 Chainz released a digital cookbook, titled ‘#MEALTIME,’ with his newest album, ‘B.O.A.T.S II #METIME’ Sept. 10. may be due to the fact I don’t own “gold sauce pots,” but that’s just speculation. It is also possible my jam session to “Feds Watching” while “celebrating the good times I’ve had this year” lasted a bit too long, leading to overcooked potatoes. However, I enjoyed the creaminess of the potatoes and would do it the same next time. The flavor of the chicken was mild and sweet. I let the wine cook down for a bit longer than suggested in the recipe to make sure my chicken was fully cooked. The flavor of the wine and the onions and garlic paired deliciously and wasn’t overpowering, but could have been more flavorful. I enjoyed the fact that the chicken was cooked in olive oil and not fried with

breading, making the dish healthier. Thanks 2 Chainz! The smell of my campus kitchen while making these recipes was a mouth-watering mix of garlic, onion and sweet wine. I would make the mashed potatoes again, but I would add some type of cheese to give the dish more flavor. As for the chicken, I’d probably pass on making it again. It was too much work, probably because I had to “get into the right headspace to finish up the meal.” I really want to try out the teriyaki salmon, but I’m still in the market for a “Versace apron.” Since that’s required to wear for the first step of making the salmon, that meal will have to wait.

WES BURDEN Lantern reporter burden.52@osu.edu Note: This article contains full spoilers for “Breaking Bad.” If you are a newcomer to the series, refrain from reading. Anticipation, fear and anxiety are a few descriptions of the way fans felt when they entered the Gateway Film Center to watch the series finale of AMC’s hit show “Breaking Bad.” The show, which stars Bryan Cranston as Walter White and Aaron Paul as Jesse Pinkman, is regarded as one of the greatest TV shows of all time by some, and this season’s final eight episodes proved why it earned this moniker. The season finale Sunday averaged 10.3 viewers compared to last fall’s season finale, only averaging 2.8 million viewers, according to USA Today. Tremaine Phillips, a first-year law student at Ohio State’s Mortiz

College of Law, was quick to point out his love for the show and what watching it come to an end meant to him. “I have watched the show since it started, and I haven’t been disappointed,” Phillips said before the finale aired. “I think there will be a lot of people who will enjoy this show like I will, and I expect many deaths (in the final episode) tonight.” With the Gateway only showing the finale in one theater, along with hosting a private viewing party of the show, tickets were slim for those who wanted to watch on the big screen. For those who weren’t able to get a ticket to watch in the theater, screens in the main lobby displayed the finale for some 60 people who crammed their way in to get the chance to watch the series end. The lobby was filled with chatter and conversation before and during commercials, but when the show came back on, all eyes and ears were glued to the screen, watching and

contemplating what would happen throughout the finale. Sarah Puchta, a fifth-year in marketing, guessed “Breaking Bad” would go out with a bang and leave fans speechless. “This is probably the best drama series I have ever watched,” Puchta said. “I really hope that both Walt and Jesse live, but this show has lived off the unexpected, so anything can happen.” Even though Walt died in the finale, the ending to the show seemed to leave most people at the Gateway satisfied with the direction the finale steered. Mickey Mekawi, a second-year in economics, said the episode was a great way to end the series and did a wonderful job of tying the entire story of Walt’s journey together. “(My) first reaction is, I think that was a perfect way to end the show,” Mekawi said after the finale. “All loose ends up until this point were tied together, and I can be satisfied with how ‘Breaking Bad’ came to a close.”

Fall weather, cold temperatures calls for proper sweater care BREANNA SOROKA Senior Lantern reporter soroka.15@osu.edu If the temperature is any indication of your future fashion choices, it’s likely you’re going to start hunkering down in those oversized sweaters most days of the week. In order to make sure you get as much wear out of them as possible, follow these tips to properly care for your autumn clothes.

Attention to detail All sweaters are not created equal. The varying compositions of fabric types mean that caring for, say, a wool sweater as opposed to a synthetic nylon blend is going to be very different. It is always best to look at the care instructions listed on the clothing tag within the sweater before attempting to do any sort of washing, especially if it’s a more expensive piece that you’re not willing to ruin because of a silly care mistake. Always read the tags, and don’t be afraid to look for online how-to articles if you want more in-depth instructions before you try to clean the sweater. Use your hands Though the washing machine is of great use when it comes to cleaning your clothes in bulk, it is the sweater’s worst nightmare. There is no cycle gentle enough to keep the quality of this piece as high as it should be. Instead, sweaters of all kinds should be hand-washed with mild soap and water, plain and simple. Though this process is obviously more labor-intensive, it helps keep the integrity of the sweater since you can easily control exactly how much force is being used during cleaning. Once the sweater has been thoroughly washed, be sure to lay it flat, as dry—hanging it or storing it while it’s damp can also ruin the quality.

Be creative with care Sometimes you’re not going to have access to a dry cleaner, a sweater stone, which is a pumice stone used to get rid of pilling on sweaters, or a number of any other useful tools for clothing care.

As fall approaches, make sure to properly care for your autumn clothes to get as much wear out of them as possible. Hand-washing and reading the care instructions are a couple of ways to keep your sweaters looking their best. In these cases, experimenting with other common household objects to help keep your sweaters in top shape is a great idea. If your sweater pills and gets those little fuzz pieces all over, go ahead and (gently) take a razor to it to remove them. Use a hairbrush to remove hair and dust if there is no lint roller in sight. If there’s a will, there’s a way when it comes to sweater care, so there is virtually no object or tool too weird to use. Wear it well Just because you have properly cared for your beloved sweater using all of the steps above, that doesn’t mean your job is done — the battle is only half over. When you’re actually wearing the sweater,

it’s important to be mindful of it in your everyday life. Pulling at it can stretch it out and make it shapeless, and pushing the sleeves up toward your elbows can have the same effect. You should also keep in mind that layering with a sweater can wear it out more quickly as well — the friction between certain fabrics can harm the well-being of the sweater. Anything similar to the material of a coat should be avoided. Sweater weather is the best kind, but it won’t be any fun if the only sweaters you have are ill-fitting and misshapen. By following these instructions, you’re guaranteed to have the best looking sweaters around. That snuggly feeling is just an added bonus.
