Comparing the quarter calendar to the 2012 semester calendar

Expect more Friday classes in 2012. And for that matter, expect to take more classes throughout the week, Ohio State ofÿcials say. It’s all a part of the multi-million-dollar conversion from quarters to semesters. “The big question that students have is, ‘How is this going to affect me?’” said Jay Hobgood, co-chair of the Council on Academic Affairs. That council is leading the daunting task of moving the university to a new schedule by summer 2012. Ofÿcials at the Ofÿce of Academic Affairs made a pledge to students that the conversion won’t delay their graduation as long as they work with academic advisers to make sure they are on the right track. That means that students shouldn’t start a new course sequence that they can’t ÿnish before the transition, University Registrar Brad Myers said. Curricula in those sequences likely will change after the switch, as professors will have more time than a 10-week quarter to cover more material. For students who don’t heed Meyer’s advice, though, the university might offer “bridge courses” to get them up to speed in the sequence, said Jay Johnson, assistant provost for the Ofÿce of Academic Affairs. But that would be up to each department to decide, he said. Students will have to get used to traditional semester schedules, Johnson said, which typically means a higher courseload to make up for fewer terms throughout the year. In the end, though, the workload remains about the same, he said. “I think that you’re not studying more under semesters than you are under quarters, or less,” Johnson said. “It’s roughly the same amount.” Although many students — and professors — avoid Friday classes on the quarter system, Myers said that won’t be possible with semesters. “There’s just no way we can make (semesters) work with the classroom pool that we have without … taking advantage of Friday,” Myers said. “We just have to.”

The roof covering the front porch of an East Lane Avenue home collapsed Saturday morning. That’s the only thing the tenants and property manager agree on. A female called the police Saturday at 3:37 a.m. and said the roof of 44 E. Lane Ave. fell “because kids were sitting on it,” a Columbus Police dispatcher said. Carl Scoles, a ÿfth-year in animal sciences who lives with ÿve other students in the house, said the roof fell on its own. “The wood is so rotted and worn out on that thing,” he said. “I can’t believe it didn’t come down sooner.” Ryan Falk, a third-year in business at Bowling Green State University, was visiting his brother who lives in the

house. Falk said he was asleep in the living room when the roof collapsed and that nobody was sitting on it. But George Ypsilantis, property manager for Pella Co., which rents out more than 50 properties — including the one on East Lane — to students, said he suspects people sitting on the roof caused its collapse. “Porches don’t just fall down,” he said. When maintenance issues occur, Scoles said Pella does “the least amount possible to repair things.” “We’ve had problems with stuff falling apart before,” he

Diagnosing and treating athletic injuries is usually pretty cut-and-dry. Sprain an ankle? Rest, ice, compress and elevate, doctors say. Break an elbow? After surgery, put the arm in a sling until it heals. But concussions are more complicated. Max Stearns, an Ohio State fencer who has suffered two concussions playing recreational soccer in the last year, said the emotional side-effects from concussions are worse than the initial shots to the head. “Depression, anxiety and mood

changes are common characteristics associated with having a concussion,” Stearns said. “I felt I was much more moody. It didn’t take much to get me angry. I just felt like I had a little less control of my emotions.” Kelsey Logan, who treated Stearns and is the medical director of the OSU Sports Concussion Program, said her ÿrst priority is to guage brain damage after a head injury. “What we look for mainly is whether or not (the patient) is what we call neurologically intact, that their brain is functioning normally,” Logan said. “Most of the time what an athlete will complain of is a headache or maybe dizziness, and they feel sick to their stomach. Generally they feel like they’re just not quite with it.” Most of those symptoms can be cured in a relatively short amount of time, said

campus OSU study links light exposure to obesity in mice JAMIE MORGAN Lantern reporter morgan.693@osu.edu A recent Ohio State study found that eight weeks of exposure to light at night caused mice to gain nearly 50 percent more weight than mice given eight hours of darkness daily. Laura Fonken, a doctoral student in neuroscience, and Randy Nelson, a professor of neuroscience and psychology, began the study examining human evidence, such as the increased body mass index among night-shift workers, Fonken said. “There’s been some evidence in studies with humans that kind of led us to be interested in this question, and not a lot of people have looked at these effects,” Fonken said. Nelson said there is also a possible link to weight gain for college students. “Perhaps part of the ‘freshman 15’ represents a shift to a more nocturnal lifestyle in college,” Fonken said. However, results are not conclusive for humans, Fonken said. “It’s very hard to say at this point whether or not we will ÿnd a similar pattern in humans, just because we haven’t looked yet, but it might start to explain some of the mechanisms we need to further investigate before drawing conclusions,” she said. The study placed some mice in a standard light-dark cycle, with 16 hours of light and eight hours of darkness. The others lived in a light-dim cycle, with 16 hours of light and eight hours at 5 lux of light, the equivalent of an open computer screen. After one week, the mice with

light at night gained more weight than the others and continued to gain weight during the eightweek study. There reasons for the weight gain wasn’t clear at ÿrst, Fonken said. “We thought there was probably a difference in activity and how much food was consumed over a day, but both were the same,” Fonken said. The weight gain could be caused by abnormal eating patterns among mice in the light-dim cycle, researchers said. They concluded that the mice in that cycle consumed more food at abnormal times, causing an increase in weight. A follow-up study limiting food to the time of day when mice were most active led to the same amount of weight gain for both groups of mice. “I think that by showing the increased fat could be blocked simply by restricting food intake to the active part of the day (night in the case of these nocturnal creatures) indicates a shift in metabolism and likely biological clock genes,” Nelson said in an e-mail. Light at night does not affect corticosterone, a stress hormone that in° uences metabolism, but it might cause problems with melatonin, another hormone correlated with metabolism, Fonken said. Research also showed that the mice exposed to light at night had a reduced glucose tolerance, an indication of a pre-diabetic state, she said. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s website, diabetes is directly linked to being obesity. The CDC predicted one in three Americans will have diabetes by 2050. Aarthi Gobinath, a thirdyear in microbiology and

Spanish, said she is surprised that something as seemingly harmless as light at night might be related to obesity and diabetes. “I think it is deÿnitely important to study,” she said. “Obesity is kind of an epidemic these days in developed countries, and anything that can be done to change the current habits is great.” Nelson agreed that research is an important step toward improving quality of life. “Obesity is associated with poor quality of life and reduced longevity,” he said. “It is growing in prevalence across the world, and no one really understands why that is so, especially in places where diets have not changed substantially over the past few years.” Fonken said researchers will continue to build on the study. “The most exciting result is

Semesters from 1A

12,000 courses must be converted to semester schedule Classes that meet Monday, Wednesday and Friday for 55 minutes will be the most common, according to the curriculum conversion guide. Classes will begin as early as 8 a.m. and end as late as 10 p.m. OSU has been preparing for the switch to semesters since 2009, although ofÿcials considered the conversion three times in the past 20 years, OSU spokesman Jim Lynch said. The brunt of the work is converting 12,000 courses from a 10-week schedule to 14 weeks. “We have some 200 different academic programs,” Johnson said. “All of those need to be converted … and every single course needs to be reapproved.” Each department is required to re-evaluate its courses and draft a proposal to be approved by a conversion committee. Professors and department heads might add, split, drop or combine classes to adapt them to the 14-week schedule.

Roof from 1A

$5,000 to $10,000 in repairs necessary, property manager says said. “Last year the bottom of this roof was rotting and falling off, so they just put up some plywood to cover it.” Again, Ypsilantis disagreed. He said there has been no repair work on the porch roof within the past two years, but that putting up sheets of plywood is probably how such a repair would have been made. Ypsilantis said he inspects all the Pella properties at least once a month. Scoles, who has lived there for more than a year, said he has never seen a company representative inspect the property. Ypsilantis is trying to expedite the repair process, but “it could take a few weeks to get all the paperwork approved,” he said. Until then, temporary railings are being installed to allow the residents to use the porch, he said. The repairs are estimated to cost between

The departments send curriculum proposals to the college they’re in before it moves on to the Council of Academic Affairs. Members of that council spend weeks looking at each program to make sure it matches the university’s goals and won’t be an obstacle to graduation. Johnson said the council should have all the proposals for review no later than winter 2010. All semester courses will be available online in spring 2012 so students can register for summer and fall 2012 courses. But academic advisers will get course information ahead of time, so students can consult their advisers about courses they will take after the conversion, ofÿcials said. Despite promises that the switch will be a smooth one, some students are still resistant to courses that require a 14-week attention span. “The classes I’ve taken, I can’t imagine taking them for any longer,” said Tiffany Belton, a ÿfth-year in fashion retail studies. “I’m just glad I won’t be here for it.” Dylan Tussel contributed to this story.

$5,000 and $10,000, all of which Pella will likely pay, Ypsilantis said. While the incident resulted in no injuries, “it crushed a perfectly good beer-pong table,” said Kayla Ream, a fourth-year in business at Wright State University, who was visiting her brother who lives in the house. Scoles said he has had other issues with Pella not making proper repairs to his house. “Last year someone punched a hole in the shower wall,” he said. “We put in a maintenance request to ÿx it, and they just covered the hole with a mirror.” Ypsilantis said repairs are made on a case-bycase basis. “Whenever we do repairs and everything else, it’s different situations,” he said. “If they punched a hole in the thing … we could tell them, ‘Hey, we have to replace the whole panel,’ or we could put a Plexiglas mirror in there.” Ypsilantis said Pella responds to most maintenance requests within a day. “This is going to take a big mirror to ÿx,” Scoles said.

Concussion from 1A

Five concussions on football team this season

Richard Rodenberg, a physician at OSU and Nationwide Children’s Sports Medicine. “Fortunately, the majority of kids will resolve their symptoms in a fairly timely manner. But there is a certain percentage of the population that will have prolonged symptoms,” Rodenberg said. “They will have headaches and difÿculty concentrating or being able to perform cognitive tasks in school. They have light sensitivity, noise sensitivity and difÿculty sleeping.” He said athletes can increase the likelihood of a speedy recovery by recognizing that they had a concussion and resting immediately after. “We can help the kids, but the kids can help themselves far more when they have that transparency to say, ‘Hey, I’ve got problems, I need to rest,’” Rodenberg said. “Allow them to fully recover, and they tend to come back quicker. They tend to have fewer symptoms and do better.” Doug Calland, the head athletic football trainer at OSU and head athletic trainer of all

36 varsity sports, said the football team has handled about ÿve concussions this season, not including the last two football games against Wisconsin and Purdue. Bigger, harder-hitting athletes and heavier reliance on equipment for protection puts football players in a precarious situation, said OSU wide receiver Dane Sanzenbacher, who suffered a concussion in 2008 against Wisconsin. “I think the point it’s gotten to, with everyone being bigger and faster, the equipment’s bigger, you put these things on and you feel like you’re invincible,” Sanzenbacher said. The football coaching staff and trainets at OSU make sure that players with concussions get taken off the ÿeld and any other activity that could aggravate the problem. “No lifting weights, no ÿlm, no practicing, nothing,” said OSU offensive guard Bryant Browning. Before players get back to training after a concussion, they have to go through tests to determine the injury’s physical and mental consequences. The standard grading scale assesse concussion symptoms from zero to ÿve, Calland said. Athletes must score zeroes in each category before they move on to the next step of recovery.

“After they go through the zero-symptom scale and go through the neurologicalcognitive (testing), they have to be cleared, which could take two or three days or it might take two or three weeks, we just don’t know. It depends on the athlete and how long their symptoms last,” Calland said. “They then do a cardiac workout, which is about 25 minutes of a pretty heavy cardio challenge. Then we’ll reassess them again, and once they get through all those stages and building up of activity, then they’re cleared to play.” Calland said OSU has stayed ahead of the curve when it comes to concussion treatment. “We’ve always done pretty well. None of this stuff for us is new. We’ve been doing all of these things for quite a long time and we’re very fortunate to have the OSU Medical Center and a lot of the resources that a lot of other schools may not have,” Calland said. Stearns said he received top-notch care from Logan and her team. “I really felt like I got the best treatment I could. They were very thorough in their examinations. (Logan) kept in close contact just to make sure that I was doing OK,” Stearns said. Logan “was very careful in making sure that I was emotionally stable.”

OSU researcher receives high honor CHRIS BURKETT Lantern reporter burkett.41@osu.edu Michael Lairmore has established himself as a researcher at Ohio State and was recently named to the Institute of Medicine. But he said being a good father is his greatest accomplishment. “I have a good relationship with my kids,” Lairmore said. “They’re all leading productive lives.” Lairmore, the associate dean for research and graduate studies with the College of Veterinary Medicine at OSU, is married with ÿve kids who are all in college, graduate school or have recently graduated. He said balancing his personal life is sometimes a struggle, but he could not have accomplished what he has without his family. “I have a really supportive home environment,” Lairmore said. “My wife gave up her job to raise and help the children.” Lairmore said it is hard not to take his work home with him. He said he has to “disengage,” which he does through hobbies, such as playing Nintendo Wii and traveling. Lairmore has a doctoral degree in experimental pathology from Colorado State University, as well as two degrees from

Michael Lairmore the University of Missouri — a doctorate in veterinary medicine and a bachelor’s degree in biology. Lairmore’s biography on the Center for Microbial Interface Biology’s website lists more than 70 groups, memberships and titles he has held since 1977. He is still active in some. “I’m very active in ones related to the disciplines I’m currently doing,” Lairmore said. His most prestigious professional accomplishment came recently when he was named to the Institute of Medicine, one of the highest honors in the biomedical ÿeld. Those who are nominated by members of the Institute of Medicine have distinguished themselves in their ÿelds of research. Lairmore said he was humbled by his induction. “I was blown away,” Lairmore said. “I knew how important it was. You really feel like you have an obligation that people thought

that much of your work, you need to really respect that. I thought it was a long shot. I thought, ‘It’s ÿne to be nominated,’ but I thought it was never going to happen.” Kate Hayes-Ozello, grant specialist for the College of Veterinary Medicine at OSU, has known and worked with Lairmore for about 20 years. She knows how important the Institute of Medicine induction is to him. “We’re very excited about him being elected to the Institute of Medicine,” Hayes-Ozello said. “As a researcher myself, I am very aware of what an incredible accolade that is.” His recognition further establishes OSU in the ÿeld of cancer research. “That’s an elite group,” said Michele Morscher, program coordinator for research and assistant to Lairmore. “It’s a feather in our college’s cap to know he was elected into it when he was on staff here.” Other highlights of Lairmore’s career include being named an American Association for the Advancement of Science Fellow and receiving the Hero of Hope Research Medal of Honor from the American Cancer Society. Lairmore said his research, which involves a virus that causes cancer, is important to him because his mother died of cancer.

“It brings it down to a personal level,” Lairmore said. “Whatever small amount I can contribute in the knowledge base of a virus that causes cancer, it makes me feel better to know that I’m adding something with that knowledge.” Lairmore is also a professor. He teaches virology to veterinary students and graduate students in medical school. Laurie Millward, clinical assistant professor in shelter medicine to the department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences at OSU, was a student of Lairmore’s. Millward said Lairmore tries to help further others’ careers, including her own. “He provided a place for me to learn, for me to get my graduate degree,” Millward said. “He helped me in a professional way, but I feel I grew a lot, personally, under his direction. He taught me how to be a good leader. It meant so much to me that he cared about my career and personal advancement.” To students, Lairmore said, “You’re our students today, our colleagues tomorrow. Follow your passions. If you can follow your passions and not worry too much about your earning level, things tend to fall into place. Being able to get out there and believe in yourself, it’s really important.”

Horoscopes by Nancy Black and Stephanie Clements, ©2010 Tribune Media Services Inc. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY You achieve balanced results this year by focusing on a couple of areas: responsible partnership and your powerful desire for independence. Inspired creativity and luck go hand in hand to round out your formula for success. To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. ARIES March 21 – April 19 Today is an 8 -- An older mentor or teacher suggests changes that both irritate and provoke your imagination. Allow time for multiple ideas to sort themselves out. TAURUS April 20 – May 20 Today is a 5 -- Everyone you know is away from home now. You need to talk but may need to wait for the end of the day. Take care of business in the meantime. GEMINI May 21 – June 21 Today is a 7 -- Antique materials for ancient design ideas are just what you need to bring your plan to fruition. There’s no reason to re-invent what works. CANCER June 22 – July 22 Today is an 8 -- Antiques or memorabilia capture your attention today. Reminisce with youngsters about times gone by, represented in pictures. Everyone laughs. LEO July 23 – Aug. 22 Today is a 7 -- Circumstances begin to come around to your benefit today. If all the information is in, you don’t have to do anything. Others apply the necessary pressure.

VIRGO Aug. 23 – Sept. 22 Today is an 8 -- Your word carries more weight now. Consider how you’ll mediate between doubts and pressures toward change. Invent multiple solutions. LIBRA Sept. 23–Oct. 22 Today is a 5 -- Recall your favorite vacation, and begin plans to duplicate it in the near future. A change of scenery does wonders for your attitude. SCORPIO Oct. 23 – Nov. 21 Today is a 7 -- Your subconscious knows what to do. One character in a dream delivers the central message. Separate that from the rest of the dream plot. SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22 – Dec. 21 Today is a 5 -- The day starts out upside down. The wrong person is in control, at least, that’s what you think. Reserve veto power for another day. CAPRICORN Dec. 22 – Jan. 19 Today is a 7 -- You feel like you’ve had a responsibility dumped on you. Actually, it’s a golden moment for you. Let your brilliance shine. AQUARIUS Jan. 20 – Feb. 18 Today is an 8 -- Associates gather to celebrate an elder’s life. Bring flowers or make a speech. Reminisce about your shared experiences to add a personal touch. PISCES Feb. 19 – March 20 Today is an 8 -- Although you have a lot of irons in the fire, attention to household matters is needed. Call in an expert if you must. It saves a lot of time.

Ohio gets its fair share of snide comments and unglamorous depictions in movies, but the state is getting its revenge on tourists at “Halloween Horror Nights XX” at Universal Studios — in a haunted house. The attraction, “Legendary Truth: The Wyandot Estate,” is named after a property in Carey, Ohio, located outside of Sandusky. Universal’s scary story about the house goes like this: Estate owner Malcolm Wyandot killed his wife and 13 guests before committing suicide in 1929. Now the spirits of the house are out to spook Halloween thrill-seekers. The house was envisioned by Halloween Horror Nights show director Lora Wallace, who grew up in Ohio. “Legendary Truth” is Universal’s first true haunted house, she said. “In the past two decades, we have never done a haunted house,” said Patrick Braillard, another show director, at a press conference for Horror Nights. “We’ve done haunted mazes and we’ve done a lot of different things with ghosts … but we’ve never actually done ghosts.” The Ohio-inspired house is one of eight haunted attractions at Universal’s Horror Nights. The park also features six “scare zones,” where visitors encounter chain saw drill teams, Mardi Gras-clad zombies and wrinkled witches on their way to the haunted mazes. “You are technically safe if you walk on the sidewalks,” Wallace said, “technically.” This year marks two decades of Universal’s Halloween event, which has attracted a following of loyal Florida residents. In the past, the show directors created “icons,” such as Jack the Clown and Bloody Mary, to serve as figureheads for the event. But they wanted to theme Horror Nights differently for the anniversary, Braillard said. “We knew that if we were going to use the icons this year, we didn’t want to have a reunion party,” he said. “We weren’t going to get them together and sing ‘Kumbaya’ and kill somebody. They serve a bigger purpose.” Instead, the icons represent chaos, death, sacrifice, legend and vengeance, six variables that induce fear. And fear, personified in a stilted, devil-like character who roams in one of the scare zones, is the theme of this year’s Horror Nights, which has the moniker “Twenty Years of Fear.” Braillard said Fear “sent this entire event in motion 20 years ago. And now Fear is out and he is not happy.” The other icons still get some limelight in the haunted house “Horror Nights: The Hallow’d Past,” which features disturbing scenes, including a Wonderland-gone-wrong where the White Rabbit’s intestines are being eaten by one of the house’s aggressors. White Rabbit aside, Braillard said this year’s Horror Nights does not have any victims. “You look over there and you see someone going, ‘Oh, help me,” and that’s not scary,” he said about victims at past Horror Nights events. “This year, every single person … is an aggressor. All of them want your blood — they want to hurt you, they want to kill you.” Aggressors vary with the theme of each house,

In the house “Catacombs: Black Death Rising,” plague doctors donning beaked gas masks and black overcoats were sealed into France’s catacombs along with those who died from the plague. Horror Nights visitors enter those catacombs. “These guys have been down there for almost 500 years and they are pissed,” Braillard said. “You walk through this maze, and there’s blind corner after blind corner.” The elaborate themes and sets of the houses

have earned Halloween Horror Nights the title of Best Halloween Event in Amusement Today, a theme park trade magazine, for three years in a row (200810).

New ‘Belgian’ restaurant opens in Wex Nathan Mc Cullo ugh Lantern reporter mccullough.179@osu.edu

Rock Band 3 Monopoly Streets Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2

Taste of Belgium, the Wexner Center’s new café, began offering a full breakfast and lunch menu Monday. Located in the Wexner Center’s lower lobby, Taste of Belgium is replacing Cam’s on Campus. Taste of Belgium is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday The location does not accept swipes.

“We offered the bid to be here and so far we have been really pleased with how things are going,” said RJ White, manager of Taste of Belgium. “We have a comfortable space and we offer more of an international flair that we know people are excited about.” Taste of Belgium also has a location at the North Market and Findlay Market in Cincinnati. The café specializes in European-inspired fare, including handmade Liège-style waffles. “Our waffles are made with Belgian

beet sugar and organic buckwheat flour,” White said. “The waffle is one of our signature items because of the ingredients.” Some students were excited about the cafe’s opening. “The café is right down from the Fine Arts Library, which makes it convenient,” said Daniel Pritchard, a fifth-year in photograph. Sarah Dunlap, a second-year graduate student and teaching assistant in English, also said Taste of Belgium’s location was convenient. “I think this is a good place to

meet with students outside of class,” Dunlap said. “A lot of my colleagues even hold office hours here.” The management hopes Taste of Belgium becomes a popular spot for students. “The whole idea behind food being art and being in an art museum,” White said, “we hope that the OSU community can share in that excitement.”

Hip hop concert converted to memorial by friends for fallen Minn. rapper Eyedea Zacha riah Jones Senior Lantern reporter jones.2992@osu.edu Friends and fans of late underground rapper Michael “Eyedea” Larsen gathered at Carabar on the near east side Sunday to celebrate and remember the freestyle-battle champion. Larsen’s mother, Kathy Averill, said her son died in his sleep from unknown causes Oct. 16. “When it came to freestyle and battle, he was so quick with his delivery and punch lines,” said Jared “Path” Young, half of local hip-hop duo Alleyes Path. “I remember watching videos of him battling some of the freestyle fellowship cats(Xbox at Scribble Splinter Cell: Conviction 360)Jam and making a reference to how Bone Thugs already ran Lead Gold: Gangs of the Wild West (PC) with theirand style.” Larsen released three albums with longtime Music Everyone (Wii) under Minnesotafriend Gregfor “Abilities” Keltgen based label Rhymesayers as “Eyedea and Abilities.”

“Mike was the closest friend I ever had,” Keltgen said. “He was as caring and brilliant as he was a true prodigy.” Larsen made a name for himself in the late ‘90s as an emcee and battle rapper, winning Scribble Jam, one of the largest hip-hop festivals in the U.S., in 1999 and the televised “Blaze Battle” sponsored by HBO in 2000. Young said the date and venue of the tribute show had initially been set up by Larsen’s good friend and fellow emcee Kristoff Krane. “With the passing of Eyedea last week, Kristoff canceled the tour,” Young said. “We decided to keep the date and turn it into a free benefit concert with all bar proceeds going to Eyedea’s family.” Local rappers Illogic and The Midas Touch performed in addition to Alleyes Path at the tribute show. Larsen also released a solo album under his pen name “Oliver Hart,” as well as collaborative projects with his freestyle live jazz group, Face Candy. He

also created an alternative-rock band named Carbon Carousel. Eyedia fan Stephen Tabatowski said Larsen’s music was some of the first hip-hop he ever listened to. “I was too pretentious to listen to anything on the radio, so it was all Eyedea and Abilities, Slug and Aesop Rock,” Tabatowski said. His non-battle rhymes were often philosophical and followed narratives. The quick pace of his rhymes was well-known to many underground hip-hop fans. “You challenged me without tearing me down. You pushed and encouraged me to be a better person. You had my back even when I didn’t have my own back,” said Sean “Slug” Daley, half of the rap act Atmosphere, about the late rapper. A public wake for Larsen will be held in his hometown of St. Paul, Minn., on Thursday. A tribute show is set to take place Nov. 9, what would have been Larsen’s 29th birthday.

NFL from 8A

Coleman bought car before making NFL squad because he is deÿnitely … ÿrstor second-round material.” Talent aside, Coleman had to adapt to what comes with being a late selection. “I had a lot of conÿdence in myself that I was going to be able to come in and learn the system and perform well,” Coleman said. “As a late-round draft pick or a free agent, you have to do it fast and you have to do it often.” Coleman has not only earned a roster spot, but he is second on the Eagles depth chart at safety and one of the ÿrst off the bench in obvious passing situations. Friends in Columbus have taken notice. “I heard on special teams he is doing a great job and even getting in a little bit at safety,” OSU safety Jermale Hines said. In ÿlling those two roles,

Coleman has made 11 tackles in his young professional career. Despite his success on the ÿeld, Coleman had adjustments to make in other areas. “The thing that you do have to get adjusted to is being in the professional world, living a professional life and … going to work each and every day and doing your best,” he said. The professional nature of the NFL means less player-bonding outside of the team than at the college level. “There’s grown men out here,” Coleman said. “They have separate lives outside of what they do at work. In college, you got guys you are going to stay with forever.” Coleman still talks regularly to many people at OSU. “We talked about (me entering the NFL) a little bit,” Hines said. “He just said, ‘Just stay focused and all of that will take care of itself and just keep playing fast.’” Coleman used the same advice to begin his career.

“As long as you make the team, that’s really all that matters because what you do with your opportunities is really a re° ection of yourself and your character,” Coleman said. Hard work on the ÿeld has led to some fun off of it. “I might have jumped the gun because before I made the team I bought a new car,” Coleman said. “A Cadillac Escalade.” With a new ride and a ÿrm position on the team, Coleman is enjoying his situation. “I have been having a lot of fun out here, and it’s been a very good season so far,” he said. “It’s a fun team and a fun atmosphere and a fun city to be in.” Evege expects the Eagles to have fun with their new acquisition. “They got a heck of a ball player in Kurt,” he said. “And they deÿnitely won’t be disappointed.”

Current Buckeye Donnie Evege has taken over as chapter president rally behind all these type of ideas,” Coleman said. “It’s nothing new to them … people are very willing to follow and participate.” Now a member of the Philadelphia Eagles, Kurt is glad the team has continued to participate after his departure. “It’s been going for about four years strong and it’s continuing to develop,” Coleman said. “It’s got a lot of youth to it, a lot of growth and a lot of room to grow.” Though he has moved on, Coleman has in° uenced the chapter’s leadership. “Kurt is a guy I can always call, on and off the ÿeld, for advice,” said Donnie Evege, defensive back and chapter president. “I think he set a great example for myself and everyone else on the football team.”

That example was most crucial in Coleman’s ÿnal year when Evege served as vice president. “Kurt showed me how to do it his last year here,” Evege said. “I followed in his footsteps, and when he was gone, I kind of had a smooth transition into it.” Despite remaining in contact with Uplifting Athletes, Coleman does not want to dictate its decision-making. “I don’t want to tell them what disease they should be trying to raise money for,” he said. “The whole fun for me was that I got to choose which rare disease to raise money for so I felt like I had done something.” In° uencing decisions or not, Coleman has done something to make a name for the organization in Columbus. “Since Kurt was actually the one to start the chapter of Uplifting Athletes … he has certainly left his mark,” Duffy said. “He has done some great work there.”

had a veteran team, so I really didn’t think too much. We had the best player in the country. I was just taking a backseat, basically. But this year, I am just trying to be more vocal and help the young guys.” Buford’s change has not gone unnoticed. It took little time for the 6-foot-5-inch guard’s development to catch his coach’s eye. “I think with Will, I have seen a side of him in the month that we’ve been together that is very exciting,” coach Thad Matta said. “From a leadership standpoint, from a work ethic standpoint, he is about as focused as I have ever seen him over an extended period of time.” Aiding in Buford’s development was his selection to the USA Select Team this past summer. One of 20 college players picked for the team, Buford spent a week in Las Vegas in late July, honing his skills against some of America’s best. “I think the USA basketball deal that he did this summer was pretty beneÿcial for him,” Matta said. “He got to see what the best is really like. He’s been coaching the young guys, putting his arm around them, getting them where they need to go and I think that’s been exciting for him.” Along with furthering his own skills, Buford also hopes to share some of what he picked up from his U.S. teammates and NBA counterparts with his OSU teammates. Matta is not the only one to notice Buford’s transformation. The quiet, pull-up shooter from two years ago has evolved into a well-rounded basketball player and one of the Big Ten’s best. “He is more vocal, not just on the offensive end either,” Lighty said. “He is taking a leadership role on the defensive end.” Although he has his sights set on becoming a complete player, Buford has not forgotten what got him to this point. After long practices, the Toledo, Ohio, native stays in the gym perfecting his smooth jumper and continuing to sharpen his offensive prowess. Senior guard Diebler expects big things from his dedicated fellow guard. “Will is a guy where he has always had the talent, and I think now, just focusing more on the mental aspect of the game is just going to make him unbelievable,” Diebler said. “The guy is so talented, and we have seen glimpses of it, especially last year and with him being Freshman of the Year his freshman year. Will is a guy who I think is going to have a great year.” Buford played down the individual aspect, saying the only number that matters is the number in the win column. “Personal goals: I just want to win,” he said. “Team goals: Do good during the regular season, be the Big Ten Tournament champions again and go farther in the NCAA” Tournament. And as questions of a possible jump to the NBA loom, Buford’s sights still go no further than winning. “I am still looking forward to two more years,” he said. “If I feel I am ready to go after this year, then I will go, but I’m more focused on this year and trying to win games.”

Kurt Coleman celebrates a pass break-up during an Aug. 13 preseason game.

Former Buckeye safety Kurt Coleman has left an enduring legacy off the ÿeld. Coleman is a founding member of the Ohio State chapter of Uplifting Athletes, a nonproÿt organization that raises money for rare diseases. Coleman’s work establishing the athlete-run organization was recently spotlighted by the Big Ten Network’s Give Big program. “When we did outreach to Ohio State University we kept hearing about Kurt Coleman’s fantastic work that he had done with Uplifting Athletes,” Give Big program consultant Jeanette Duffy said. “So it just seemed like a no-brainer once we spoke to Kurt himself.” Coleman and then-OSU fullback Matt Daniels started the campus chapter more than three years ago. “How I kind of came about it is my roommate Matt Daniels and I … our dads both had cancer,” Coleman said. “We wanted to try to do something for those diseases as well as other diseases (and) … we ÿgured that it was a great opportunity to branch out and start our own chapter at Ohio State.” When remembering his time with the organization, Coleman talks about his contributions and the fun he had helping the community. “My funnest time was last year when I was able to take over the whole process myself,” he said. “We had an event at Damon’s (restaurant) … to raise awareness of CMT (CharcotMarie-Tooth) disease, which (quarterback) Terrelle (Pryor’s) father and aunt have.” One focus of the organization is to include as many members of the football team as possible. “Coach (Jim) Tressel and all the guys, they

Despite being a three-year starter at Ohio State and a selection to the 2009 Big Ten All-Conference team, safety Kurt Coleman was not selected until the ÿnal round of the NFL draft. Before April’s draft, ESPN gave Coleman a grade of 40, which places him with a group of players described as “underdeveloped prospects that need extra time and coaching in order to compete for a roster spot in the NFL. NFL teams are looking for a ‘diamond in the rough’ with this type of prospect.” Knowing 243 players were selected before the Philadelphia Eagles picked Coleman gave him motivation. “I don’t really look at it like I got to prove people wrong because I know I’m going to prove myself right,” he said. “But yeah, I do have a chip on my shoulder because I feel like I was good enough to be drafted high.” Former teammates also feel he was under-appreciated. “I was a little surprised because I know the type of football player and person he is,” OSU defensive back Donnie Evege said. “I feel like the Philadelphia Eagles got a steal on him

As the ÿnal buzzer sounded, cementing a devastating loss to Tennessee in last year’s Sweet Sixteen, the No. 2-seeded Ohio State men’s basketball team somberly walked off the ° oor at the Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis, Mo. The defeat left a bitter taste in the mouths of the Buckeyes. That low moment for the team might have been the motivation guard William Buford needed. The disappointment has driven Buford to fuel his desire to elevate himself to the next level as a basketball player. Owning such titles as Ohio’s Mr. Basketball in 2008, 2009 Big Ten Freshman of the Year and 2010 Third Team All-Big Ten honoree, Buford’s ability on the court has rarely been questioned. He has always been able to shoot the ball with consistency, averaging double digits in scoring during his OSU career. “I have been scoring all my life, that’s just what I do, basically,” Buford said at media day on Oct. 14. The 2010-11 version of OSU will feature a new-and-improved Buford.
