12 OSU students evacuated after apartment fire CHELSEA SPEARS, LOGAN HICKMAN AND ANDREW ZISTLER Multimedia editor, Campus editor and For The Lantern spears.116@osu.edu, hickman.201@osu.edu and zistler.4@osu.edu For Samuel Massari, a fifth-year in computer science and engineering, Sunday morning’s wake up call came a little sooner than expected.

“We all were asleep, and somebody was pounding on our doors and windows. We assumed it was drunk kids so I went out to tell them to stop,” he said.

That’s when Massari realized there was no joke, but rather a fire that would later temporarily evict him from his off-campus residence.

“When I opened the door, there was a guy standing there saying I needed to get out, and I looked behind him and the whole porch was ablaze,” he said.

That off-campus apartment fire — which forced a dozen Ohio State students from their residences early Sunday morning — wasn’t an accident, the landlord of the property said.

Bryan Dulle, 1st Place Realty landlord, said three pedestrians saw a white man set fire to a couch on the front porch of his property at 1706 E. Summit St. at about 3 a.m. on Sunday.

Ohio State focuses on improving after 39-point win

MARK BATKE / Photo editor

OSU redshirt-freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett (16) runs through the Rutgers defense toward the end zone during an Oct. 18 game at Ohio Stadium. OSU won, 56-17.

TIM MOODY Sports editor moody.178@osu.edu The question for Ohio State heading into its matchup with Rutgers was simple: Will the momentum still be there?

A quick 14-0 start for the No. 13 Buckeyes (5-1, 2-0) showed they still had a spark despite two weeks off. In a total team effort, OSU led the Scarlet Knights (5-2, 1-2) in nearly every significant statistical category — save penalties and time of possession — but its coach said there’s still work to be done.

“It’s time to, first of all, develop depth,” Urban Meyer said after his team’s 56-17 win.

“We could go on and on about the mistakes that were made today. But enjoy the win tonight, go see your families, do what you gotta do and come back ready to go.”

For the Buckeyes, the time to “come back ready to go” will be Saturday when they are set to face Penn State on the road. The last time OSU faced-off with the Nittany Lions, the Scarlet and Gray came away with a 63-14 win at home. That 2013 win came at Ohio Stadium, but the last time OSU traveled to State College, Pa., the result was comparable.

OSU beat Penn State, 35-23, on Oct. 27,

2012, before last season’s shellacking. On top of recent success against their upcoming opponents, the Buckeyes are on a historic streak this season against all takers.

Even with any room for improvement the coaching staff might see, the 2014 Buckeyes have already carved out a spot in the OSU record books, specifically when it comes to offensive production. The team posted 50-plus points for the fourth straight game — a school record — and it gained 500 yards or more in each of those games, which is tied for the program’s best.

While some students might be out bar hopping on a Friday or Saturday night, one group of watchdogs is out riding bikes to make sure those students — and the general public — stay safe.

That group is made up of 12 uniformed officers and a sergeant working for the Columbus Division of Police.

They’re known as the campus walkie crew, and their goal is to be bicycle-borne for most of their time on duty, Columbus Police Commander Christopher Bowling said.

Sgt. Patrick Shaffer of the

Columbus Police bike patrol said the patrol is the best there is.

Several days a week, these officers are out pedaling and patrolling, mainly in the University District — and they’re catching things that many officers in cruisers can’t.

“I’m just — I’m closer to it. I can hear things that are going on that people in cars can’t,” said Officer Thomas DeWitt. “We’re right in the middle of it.”

And it’s being in the middle of campus that sometimes helps these officers catch a criminal in the middle of a crime.

That was the case back in September when DeWitt and two of his fellow bike patrol officers, Christopher

Billman and Phillip Walls, caught a homeless man who seemed to be raping a 21-year-old woman in an off-campus residential garage.

When they saw what was happening, the officers immediately intervened. “(We were) just riding down a dark alley, shining lights into garages and came across that,” DeWitt said.

Billman, a 14-year veteran with Columbus Police who’s spent four years with the bike unit, said the bike patrol officers routinely check on open garages in the campus area, but almost never come across situations like this one.

Construction hinders North Campus businesses DEMI SNIDER For The Lantern snider.295@osu.edu One-lane roads and sidewalk closures are prompting some drivers and students to avoid the North Campus area during construction on the residence halls, leaving some local business managers unahppy.

Mike Sanda, manager of Noodles and Company located at 2124 N. High St., said in years before the construction started, business would boom when students returned to campus in the fall.

This year, however, things are drastically different.

“Rather than a 100 percent increase, it has only been a 75 percent increase

OSU to grow food for dining halls LEISA DECARLO Lantern reporter decarlo.25@osu.edu Ohio State Dining Services launched an initiative this fall to ensure that select produce prepared and served by campus dining halls will be locally grown, right on OSU soil.

“Food is a meaningful thing,” said Zia Ahmed, senior director of University Dining Services. “It’s a lot more meaningful because it’s grown in our own backyard.”

Howlett Greenhouse on OSU’s West Campus is set to be home to lettuce, kale, basil and other “lettuce-type” crops used for student consumption, said James Metzger, Department of Horticulture and Crop Science professor and chair. Produce will be planted, cared for and harvested by both volunteers and students within the Department of Horticulture and Crop Science as a collaborative effort between Dining Services and the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences.

“It isn’t something that just stops at the supermarket. This is the idea of being totally self-sufficient. People are going to see that they can make a contribution. People will get an understanding of what food production is about,” Metzger said.

Overall, the initiative costs less than $1,000 and the money was provided by Dining Services, Ahmed said.

This is the first time a specifically designed space on OSU’s campus will be dedicated to the growing and harvesting of some of the food students eat, Ahmed said.

Metzger said although the reality of space limitations might mean that the initiative could not reach all campus dining halls, OSU could still supply a significant amount of produce. The goal is to start small and track the potential for what can be grown and sustained at OSU, Metzger said.

“The more we can reduce the cycle time from the time it’s harvested to the time it makes it on the plate, it will, of course, taste better,” Ahmed said.

The use of the greenhouse space is vital to the sustainability of the partnership and for year-round production, but it might be trickier when it comes to appropriate planting temperature and fertilization, Metzger said.

“If you plant something in your garden, you kind of just let

campus Fire from 1A “It appears that it was definitely arson,” he said.

Dulle said the fire started with the couch on the porch but spread to other parts of the building.

Shortly after the fire started, Stephanie Connaughton, a fourth-year in nutrition in industry, called 911 after noticing the flames from a neighbor’s home on East 14th Avenue and Summit Street.

“The fire started small. I thought just a grill maybe caught fire,” Connaughton said in an email. “Within minutes the entire porch was torched and the fire rapidly expanded through the upper floors. The fire made large smacking sounds, really scary. A small crowd of ppl (sic) were standing on the sidewalk merely watching. Some in bathrobes, a couple girls were crying.

People also spectated from their porches throughout the street.”

Meanwhile, Matt Duplin, a fifthyear in industrial engineering who lives across the street, said his roommates called him outside to see what was going on.

Construction from 1A in sales since the start of school,” he said.

Many businesses see an increase on Ohio State football gamedays, as students walk and meet friends before attending the game, he said, but this year hasn’t followed suit.

“Sidewalk congestion and dust circling around outside tables prompt many students to take alternative routes to the Horseshoe,” he said.

There are three major ongoing projects in the North Campus area.

The North Residential District Transformation is a $370 million renovation to the North Campus District that plans to add 3,200 additional student beds through the construction of 11 new buildings, which are expected to be ready for move-in fall 2016, in time for the start of OSU’s planned second-year live-on requirement. This project has caused closures on eastbound Lane Avenue and southbound High Street, along with various sidewalk closures, which are projected to

2A

That’s when Duplin and two others decided to run into the burning building to make sure people like Massari were getting out safely.

“We ran in and just started pounding on doors and screaming for people to get up, ‘cause it was three in the morning,” Duplin said. “It was a very terrifying and rapid-moving fire.”

Although he was only in the building for about 20 seconds, Duplin said the conditions were nearly unbearable.

“I went to the left side where the fire hadn’t really spread. You couldn’t see very well, it was very hazy, and I had to put my shirt up over my face because I couldn’t breathe,” he said.

Dulle said three of the four units have smoke damage as a result of the fire, and the other unit is even worse.

“The front porch is gone,” Dulle said. “And one unit — we’re talking a lot of damage.”

Dulle said the cost of the damage had not yet been determined as of Sunday afternoon.

Massari — who lives at the 1708 E. Summit St. side of the apartment duplex — said he thought the fire damage could have been a lot worse.

“Our rooms all just had smoke and soot damage. Everything was covered in a layer of soot and there was some damage from them trudging through to try and take care of everything,” he said. “The front TV was melted — it looked like a candle.

The front and top of it was melted completely down to the bottom.”

Because of the damage, 12 OSU students were relocated from the apartment, Columbus Division of Fire Battalion Chief Tracy Smith said.

Student Life spokesman Dave Isaacs said in a Sunday email that Student Life Advocacy is working with students impacted by the fire to help them find alternative housing. He said they are working to notify instructors of the situation and will assist in other long- and short-term assistance as needed.

Massari said he’s already found a temporary place to reside.

“Right now we’re at Buckeye Village. They found us a place. They pretty much set us up with clothes, linens and stuff,” he said.

Smith said investigators had not determined a cause of the fire as of

through early 2016, according to an OSU construction website.

The second project is the $66.8 million East Regional Chilled Water Plant, which will provide chilled water to the Academic Core North buildings when completed. The project is slated for a December completion, Administration and Planning spokesman Dan Hedman said in an email.

And the $3.9 million High Street Landscaping Project is set to be completed by November, Hedman said. This project aims to improve the north-south connection for pedestrians, contributing to a connection between the three main points along High Street which include South Campus Gateway at 10th Avenue and High Street to the South, the North Residential District at Lane Avenue and North High Street to the north, and the Arts District at the Historic Entrance to campus at 15th Avenue and North High Street. Closures around 18th Avenue are set to end around October, the website said.

To accommodate construction trucks coming and going, sidewalks

and streets have been periodically closed off to walkers and traffic between Lane and 17th avenues since students moved back in late August.

The city also closed meters so cars would not park on East 18th Avenue because trucks had to park there, manager of Buckeye Donuts Pete Barouxis said. Buckeye Donuts is located at 1998 N. High St. “When the construction cranes moved in, it was a big shock to my business. With the congestion and closed down sidewalks, clientele would not stop in,” he said.

Barouxis also said when the construction process was at its peak intervals, a full-time police officer would stand in front of his business in the street and direct traffic.

“This became a hassle for customers trying to stop in and it also hurt the visual appearance of the outside of my business so people just refused to come by,” he said.

Sanda said Noodles and Company is offering incentives to

An off-campus fire occurred at 1706 E. Summit St. on Oct. 19.

Sunday morning. She said the fire is still under investigation.

Nobody was injured in the fire, Dulle said.

“The first thing (going through my mind), of course, was no one was hurt, and I was relieved,” he said.

The Red Cross was called to the scene to help the tenants find a place to stay, a Columbus Fire dispatcher said.

He said no one has been arrested in connection to the fire.

students in effort to attract more revenue.

“We are encouraging OSU groups and organizations to come in and enjoy a free meal,” Sanda said. “With this marketing strategy, we hope they (the students) try something new every week, have a good experience with our company and, in turn, bring in their friends.”

And other business managers said they recognize once the construction is completed, it might be all worth it.

Rodney Martin, manager of Moe’s Southwest Grill, located at 2040 N. High St., said with more students living on North Campus come 2016 and on High Street after new apartments open soon, business and revenue will likely increase.

“There will be new apartments beside me, so this will help build up my clientele,” Martin said. Those apartments — The View on High — are set to be open in January.

In the meantime, businesses face three options with respect to the construction happening around them, said Mark Partridge, a

professor in the Agricultural, Environmental and Development Economics Department . He said they can stay open and cut back on workers, they can chose to market themselves in a way to draw clientele in and if they are losing more money staying open than they would to close, they could close for the duration of the construction period.

“They are facing some difficult decisions,” he said.

Some students said they’ve also noticed that things are different from how they normally are in the off-campus area.

“The construction has caused traffic to become backed up during certain times of the day,” said Keiffer Reed, a sixth-year in public health.

“And because of this I choose to drive different streets as an alternative route so I do not have to fight the traffic and the long wait.”

Others said they’ve experienced similar situations.

“The construction has closed off the sidewalks near my classes and I do not feel as safe having to walk on the street,” said Emily Maneval, a first-year in biology.

Win from 1A Production of that nature would be a good sign for every team, but at least one OSU assistant said he wants to keep focusing on ways to improve instead of talking about what the Buckeyes have done lately.

Co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Tom Herman said he’s not ready to make a judgment on where OSU stands, but added he hopes to have a clearer picture as the Big Ten schedule heats up.

“Obviously the scoreboard and the play-by-play or stats say that we’re playing pretty well, but as a coach you always try to find the things that you can get better at,” Herman said after the game. “I don’t know how well we’re playing.”

Meyer said it will be important for the Buckeyes to continue focusing on improvement rather than touting recent success, something he said he feels the team is able to do.

“The good thing is that I don’t feel like there’s a complacent attitude,” Meyer said.

“Complacency is awful in this business and with the players, because when you watch the film, we could actually have played a lot better in certain situations.”

In order to find the spots where OSU could have performed better against the Scarlet Knights, it might be key to look beyond the box score.

The Buckeyes totaled 31 first downs on offense while holding Rutgers to a three of 13 performance on third down on defense. OSU also outgained the opposition 585 to 345 and won the turnover battle, 3-1.

Much of that success on both sides of the ball came early in the game for the Buckeyes, which led to a 35-7 advantage at the half.

“Our focus is always to start fast and get things going,” redshirt-freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett said after the game. “I think we executed better than in past weeks, but we can still eliminate some mistakes. I put some of that on myself.”

Barrett’s own mistakes didn’t come until he had already nearly hit double digits in pass attempts, as he completed his first nine throws of the game. But after Barrett ran for two scores and threw for another in the first 10:46 of the third quarter, he and the Buckeye offense stalled.

From that point on, OSU didn’t post another point and recorded just one gain of more than 14 yards.

To an extent, the Buckeyes’ defense mirrored the fast start and slow finish of their offensive counterparts. Before addressing

that less-than-stellar second half, Meyer praised the defense’s overall performance against a team he said the Buckeyes respected going in.

“Our defense, you credit that, you can take the first half that’s a credit to our defense,” Meyer said. “They took a team that threw 400 plus yards against our rivals and really played well, creating turnovers once again and getting the ball to the offense rather quickly.”

From a scoring standpoint, the Buckeyes’ matchup with Rutgers was tied for their second-best defensive outing of the season.

Sophomore safety Vonn Bell credited that success to every player on the defense being “all in” on what it is trying to achieve.

“You can see the progression of our players and see us getting takeaways and scoring,” Bell said after the game. “It’s very impressive this young group can understand what the coaches are telling us.”

But Meyer stressed that — despite bright spots — the defense still didn’t have the start-to-finish effort he would like to see, especially when some less experienced players got a chance to make a statement late.

“We gave up some runs, and when a two gets in the game there can’t be that big of a drop off,” he said of the second-string defense’s performance in the game. “And right now we all saw what happened, there’s a significant drop off when our twos got in there.”

Co-defensive coordinator and linebackers coach Luke Fickell said the coaching staff tries to communicate to the backups that they need to treat their playing time the same as if they were starters.

“We try to talk to those guys, ‘Hey, don’t consider yourself a two,’” Fickell said. “‘You want to be a one-B.’ That means there’s not a big drop off between the one-A and the one-B.” Even though the slow finishes to the game on both sides of the ball didn’t affect the outcome of the contest, Fickell said the Buckeyes have to make sure they stay hungry rather than settling — even after a 39-point win.

“We’re never satisfied with where we are,” Fickell said. “And that’s the thing that we think that … going into what we were doing, we’ve got to be able to finish things.”

Whatever adjustments or improvements the Buckeyes can make are set to be showcased after a week of practice.

OSU is scheduled to take on Penn State on Saturday in State College, Pa. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m.

campus Bike patrol from 1A “It’s very rare to catch someone in the act. So many times you hear about it,” Billman said. “It’s just one of those things — be in the right place at the right time.”

Officers arrested the alleged rapist, 36-yearold Randy Graham Jr., that night and charged him with rape and kidnapping. His case is still active but was moved over to Franklin County Court of Common Pleas. He faces three counts of rape and one count of kidnapping, all of which he’s pleaded not guilty to, and his next hearing is on Tuesday. While bond was set at $50,000, it has not been posted, according to the Franklin County Clerk of Courts.

Shaffer said the bike unit typically patrols the High Street, Indianola Avenue and Pearl Street area — places where many students are often walking at night and the same area where officers reportedly found Graham sexually assaulting the woman.

The bike unit is currently funded through the standard Columbus Police patrol budget, however, the division is working toward centralizing the budget, Bowling said.

In between catching crooks and fighting crime, the campus walkie crew can be found interacting with everyday citizens about everyday things.

“We get a lot of people that just walk up and talk to you about everything — sports scores or what you did last night,” DeWitt said.

As Billman put it, the officers are simply “more accessible” to the public because they’re on bikes rather than cruisers.

“People feel like they can come up to us a bit more,” Billman said. “A lot of times we’re in positions with the public — between houses, in front of bars, monitoring traffic and whatnot.”

The bike unit officers welcome this kind of interaction with the public, DeWitt said. After all, their goal is to keep people safe.

“People feel like they can come up to us a bit more.”

Produce such as kale, lettuce and basil are wheeled to the Howlett Greenhouse, a space on OSU’s West Campus specifically designed to support a collaborative effort between OSU Dining Services and the Department of Horticulture and Crop Science.

Dining from 1A it grow but when doing it in a greenhouse, you want it to be just right,” Metzger said. “It takes a little more effort and a little more skill to grow things in the greenhouse versus in the field.”

Metzger said the produce will need to be tended to daily and throughout the summer months, which could present a problem when relying so heavily on a student workforce.

“You need a lot of people when you plant.”

Metzger said. “Students have to study and they go home so you need a lot of people that will spend a few days a week.”

Yet, the use of students enrolled in agricultural or food science courses as well as volunteers will significantly cut down the cost of production, Ahmed said.

“Seed doesn’t really cost much. Labor cost is really the main cost,” Ahmed said.

Growing crops on OSU soil could prove beneficial to student health, Metzger said.

“Some of these things (vegetables) are very nutritious that the American diet could use a little bit more of,” he said.

But some students are less worried about the benefits to their health and more about the damage to their wallets.

“I like that it gives students the opportunity to have experience in their major,” said Sarah Fitzpatrick, a third-year in neuroscience. “If it was going to increase the (food) prices I would want to know what the benefits would be because the prices are already pretty high.”

Still, some students support the initiative.

“It’s nice to know that you’re not getting food with crazy chemicals and preservatives. It’s probably more fresh,” said John Sparks, a first-year in science and technology exploration.

Metzger said the first crop of kale is set to be harvested in November.

opinion People must be responsible for their own safety Letter to the editor: The Lantern has been covering some pertinent stories on crime around OSU. However, it was editor Liz Young writing about the burglary of her apartment in the Sept. 28 Lantern that really got my attention, especially in how she wrapped it up: “I have an endless number of questions and I feel like none of them will be answered anytime soon. So for now, as the police told me, we just have to be extra careful.

“Whatever that means.”

Good point! What does it mean to be “extra careful”? I’ve read many a crime prevention handout echoing the sentiment: “Be alert.” A recent one I saw added something else: “Be alert and make smart choices.” It continued with the ever popular “walk with a friend or group of friends,” plus a few other rules.

All good general advice — given without any details whatsoever.

Being alert to one’s surroundings (environmental awareness) is mostly self-evident, but I’ll add two more facets: “self-awareness” and “threat awareness.” What does it matter being alert if you don’t know what to look for? Danger is seldom clearly labeled.

Now back to that flier, the front side of which proudly crowed: The full power of public safety, here to keep you safe.

Picture yourself at 4 a.m. as you leave the all-night library to walk alone to your apartment a few blocks off campus. What does “the full power of public safety” have to do with you? You tried calling your friendly escort service, but they stopped running earlier in the morning. There’s not a cop in sight. Do you think the “power of public safety” is going to appear from out of nowhere if you’re attacked? Chances are the answer is no.

But that second line … so close. All it needed was one little key word. Let me add it for you: Here to help keep you safe.

You are the one who is responsible for your own safety. Everyone else, from cops to EMTs and other safety folks, are only adjuncts to your safety. Plus, they are usually called after an emergency has occurred. My beef with the pamphlet I’ve been talking about is that it doesn’t focus on you and your role in crime prevention. It appears to be informed primarily by an administrative mindset that doesn’t want to unduly alarm anyone, doesn’t want to expend too many resources and doesn’t want to get into any grimy details on an unpleasant subject.

First of all, I’m not an authority, nor am I any kind of expert. I’m just like most of my readers. You don’t need a pack of experts to make your life safer, especially when many of those experts won’t agree with one another. My perspective will inform you and make suggestions, but it will be you who accepts or rejects those suggestions.

Why? Putting it bluntly, it’s your a--. Not mine, or Expert A’s or Authority B’s, but yours.

It’s your a-- that might find itself in trouble and it’s up to you to learn about trouble, think about it, plan for it and then deal with it, all in real time. This process takes more than memorizing pamphlet rules.

Time to switch mindsets!

Picture a street criminal who wants your wallet. This guy isn’t sitting in a board room designing pretty pictures and slick slogans. He’s figuring out how he can get close to you without provoking your fight or flight response. Maybe he’s planning a quick question to occupy your mind and reduce your ability to react as he approaches from the front, or maybe he’s plotting how he can come up from behind as you’re jamming to the oldies on your iPod. Maybe there’s more than one of him.

Either way, the only thing he might ask himself is this: “Can I take this sucker?”

This is the criminal mindset. You’re an object, a resource. It’s the criminal’s job to get his share of your stuff. Carefully, with smooth talking, or quick and brutal with a brick; he’ll do what he must to get paid. I’ve found it vitally important to get into this mindset if you wish to understand it and, eventually, avoid, mitigate or deal with it.

Crimes vary, and what I’ve just described is only one of many ways to become a victim.

Criminals’ plans run the gamut from brilliant to brilliantly stupid, but most of them have at least one advantage over their targets: they have a plan, and most of their victims don’t.

Thus, I want to get you to think about your safety. Not just safety from crime, but from other threats as well. Steps you take to protect yourself must be compatible with normal, everyday life. Not all strangers approaching you are threats. Not all problems are solved

with pepper spray or running away. It’s easy to buy that cool new doodad which promises to keep you safe, but it’s not so easy to think about dangerous, scary things like crime. Or embarrassing stuff like how to tell your date what your limits are, or to tell your friends that you’re not going to lie for them as they’re headed for trouble. Thinking about this stuff in advance will enable you to come up with some plans of your own. Now we’re entering the realm of mental preparation. That can be taught as well.

Now I want you to do something about crime, something both for you and other good people. It will cost you. Not money. Something a lot more difficult: Effort!

Be prepared to do more than read a pamphlet.

5 takeaways from 56-17 Big Ten win james grega, jr. and tim moody Asst. sports editor and Sports editor grega.9@osu.edu and moody.178@osu.edu

Members of the OSU football team celebrate during a game against Rutgers on Oct. 18 at Ohio Stadium. The game — which the Buckeyes won, 56-17 — was the first-ever matchup between the two schools and OSU’s first Big Ten home game of the season.

Offense ‘executed better’ vs Rutgers don’t say throw the ball to him because if they take him away, something else is open.”

Barrett completed passes to nine different receivers Saturday, something Meyer said can be a blessing and a curse.

“That’s where J.T. is so good at whatever the defense gives you, giving the ball,” Meyer said. “So we have a lot of pieces right now that deserve maybe a few more, but you can’t really control that in the way we do our business.”

The Buckeye offense broke yet another school record behind Barrett on Saturday, as it scored 50 or more points in its fourth straight game, the first such streak in school history.

Redshirt-sophomore offensive lineman Pat Elflein said following the game that Barrett and the offense have been able to be successful because of the players surrounding the young quarterback.

“He’s been playing great and it’s a credit to everyone else playing well,” Elflein said. “I think he’s been playing great since he stepped in. We’re protecting him well and that gives him time to make decisions.”

Coming into the game, the Rutgers defense was tied for third in the country after racking up 24 sacks. But Barrett wasn’t sacked at all during the game, and the Buckeye offense gained 585 total yards.

Asst. sports editor grega.9@osu.edu Despite coming off a bye week, the Ohio State offense didn’t skip a beat as it rolled to a 56-17 victory Saturday afternoon.

The Buckeyes were once again led by redshirt-freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett, who completed 19 of 31 passes for 261 yards and three scores, while also leading the team in rushing yards with 107 on just seven carries.

Barrett, who was responsible for five total touchdowns in the Buckeye victory, said he thought OSU’s offense has been improving each week.

“I felt like we executed better than past weeks,” Barrett said. “But we can still eliminate some mistakes. I put some of that on myself.”

On the receiving end of one of Barrett’s touchdowns was senior wide receiver Evan Spencer, who OSU coach Urban Meyer singled out following the game.

“Evan Spencer, we had a couple of plays designed because he’s probably practicing our best as a wide receiver,” Meyer said. “But the one thing about our style of offense and really everyone’s style of offense nowadays, in the spread sets, you

The Ohio State Buckeyes jumped out to a 35-7 halftime lead Saturday, en route to a 56-17 drubbing of the Rutgers Scarlet Knights.

And beyond just a victory, the Buckeye offense collected another record-setting performance by racking up more than 500 yards for the fourth straight game.

The Lantern sports editors compiled a list of five things we learned from the Buckeye victory.

1. J.T. Barrett could be best in the Big Ten Coming into the season, senior quarterback Braxton Miller and Penn State sophomore gunslinger Christian Hackenberg were thought to be the class of the Big Ten quarterbacks.

But eight weeks into the season, Barrett seems to be heads and tails over any quarterback in the conference.

The redshirt-freshman from Wichita Falls, Texas, leads all Big Ten quarterbacks in completion percentage, touchdown passes and quarterback rating and has not thrown an interception since Sept. 13 against Kent State.

Not too bad for a guy who was the third string quarterback to start fall camp.

If Barrett continues to impress with his play, there is a good chance he could unseat Miller as the Big Ten offensive player of the year.

2. The offensive line is dominating After being embarrassed against Virginia Tech in the second game of the season, the Buckeye offensive front has been making opposing defenses look silly.

Since the loss to the Hokies in which the Buckeyes totaled just 108 rushing yards, OSU is averaging 314.25 yards per game on the ground.

In addition, the Buckeye line has allowed just

Injury doesn’t prevent Jardine from skating on matthew mcgreevy Lantern reporter mcgreevy.21@osu.edu

Ben jackson / For The Lantern

Junior defenseman Sam Jardine (21) fights past a Miami (Ohio) defender during a game on Oct. 17 at the Schottenstein Center. OSU lost, 5-1.

Sam Jardine is scarred, not scared. Two seasons after a skate blade nearly cut his hand’s mobility, the Ohio State men’s hockey junior defenseman sees his surgical mark as an indication he’s in the right place.

Jardine’s perspective was born after a game on Nov. 10, 2012, when the then-freshman defenseman dived to prevent a scoring chance.

Whistled for holding, Jardine immediately broke procedure.

Instead of skating to the penalty box, Jardine screamed and pointed to his arm, current-senior forward Tanner Fritz said.

“I thought it was broken because the tendons were sliced,” Jardine said. “Then blood started coming and I knew I was in big trouble.”

As he turned away from the net, Jardine hunched over and writhed in pain. In an attempt to hurdle Jardine, the opposing forward had landed on Jardine’s exposed left arm between his elbow guard and glove.

The closest referee quickly grasped Jardine’s arm and within seconds, OSU’s then-trainer Chris Hite was over the boards with a towel wrapped around the cut, Jardine said.

A routine penalty had become a medical emergency. Hite had to stop the bleeding to prevent Jardine from going into shock, he said.

The 3-to-4-inch laceration had cut Jardine’s muscles, but stopped within a quarter of a millimeter of severing his radial nerve, Hite said.

Had the radial nerve been disconnected, Jardine would have lost mobility in his left hand.

“It never crossed my mind that it would be so bad that I

wouldn’t be able to play hockey,” Jardine said. “That never became a reality until after the surgery.”

From the time of the injury to the conclusion of his emergency surgery, Jardine stayed calm, Hite said, who is now a trainer at Hilliard Darby High School.

“He handled it so well,” Hite said. “Not what you’d expect for a kid that had lost as much blood as he had.”

The rest of the Buckeyes were rattled. With 14 minutes remaining in the game, the OSU bench was uneasy and struggled to maintain focus, Fritz said.

Meanwhile, at the OSU Wexner Medical Center, Jardine was undergoing surgery to repair his muscle tendons. The surgery marked the beginning of his rehabilitation process.

Jardine, who had never missed a game with a hockeyrelated injury, was jettisoned to the sideline for nine weeks, he said.

In order to desensitize his regenerating nerve, Jardine molded Play-Doh and moved his hand through bowls of rice for resistance, Hite said.

“We had to pull the reigns on him,” Hite said. “Every day he wanted to do something more, he wanted to do something he wasn’t allowed to do.”

For a player used to playing through injuries, the mini exercises weren’t making the cut.

“They really wanted to baby the process. I didn’t really allow that to happen,” Jardine said. “I wanted to play (that) next weekend.”

At one point, Jardine approached then-associate coach Steve Rohlik about rejoining the Buckeyes and playing with a cast. Rohlik, alongside assistant coach Joe Exter, nixed the idea.

When Jardine returned to on-ice workouts, he started

Field hockey coach picks up 300th career win aj king Lantern reporter lewis-king.1@osu.edu

Coach Anne Wilkinson talks to sophomore midfielder Paige Hamilton on the sidelines.

Monday October 20, 2014

Ohio State field hockey coach Anne Wilkinson became the 15th Division I field hockey coach to win 300 games Friday when OSU took down No. 18 Indiana in overtime on the road.

Junior forward Peanut Johnson scored unassisted four minutes into the extra session to send OSU (6-9, 1-5) and Wilkinson home happy. Afterward, the team showered Wilkinson with an ice bath to celebrate the occasion.

“They were more excited about it than I was,” Wilkinson said of her young team. “I think they were also excited for us to win on the road. They just worked so hard for it. They played as a team.”

The Buckeyes fell behind 1-0 at the half against the Hoosiers (9-5, 1-5) after a goal from redshirt-junior forward Nicole Volgraf.

OSU trailed, but it held a 7-3 shot advantage

in the first half and came out aggressively in the second period.

Five minutes into the second half, forward Annabel Sams scored to tie the game at one.

The freshman’s goal was her fourth of the season and her career.

“That was just amazing to be a part of it for (Wilkinson),” Sams said. “She puts so much effort into the team and to be able to do that for her was just amazing.”

The game remained tied throughout regulation despite multiple scoring opportunities. Junior back Emma Royce had a chance to put the game away with a penalty corner shot with three minutes left, but the shot was blocked.

Johnson’s overtime strike was the second instance this season when she scored to win a game in sudden death. The goal gave OSU its third overtime win of the season. She previously hit a game winner Sept. 14 against Ball State at Buckeye Varsity Field.

sports Strong goalkeeping not enough for men’s hockey MATTHEW MCGREEVY Lantern reporter mcgreevy.21@osu.edu Christian Frey made 60 saves in one game and lost. That was the prevailing takeaway from the Ohio State men’s hockey team’s home-and-home series with No. 11 Miami (Ohio).

After falling 5-1 in Columbus on Friday, the Buckeyes lost, 2-1, the following night despite their sophomore goaltender’s near-recordsetting performance in Oxford, Ohio.

“We have to look in the mirror and get better defensively,” OSU coach Steve Rohlik said. “I think that’s the biggest thing for us.”

Frey came within six saves of setting a school record for most saves in a game on Saturday. OSU was outshot 62-20 in the game, the first time it had allowed more than 50 shots since Oct. 12, 2002, against Minnesota.

“They shot the puck from everywhere, but I think they just outworked us in our zone,” Frey said. “We need to compete a lot harder.”

The Buckeyes began Saturday’s game with the upper hand when RedHawk freshman defenseman Scott Dornbrock was ejected for interference at the 1:36 mark of the first period.

Dorbrock’s game misconduct put OSU on a five-minute power play, during which the Buckeyes made it 1-0.

Scoring opened late in the man advantage when OSU senior forward Tanner Fritz came barreling down the left-wing side, chucked a shot on net and junior forward Anthony Greco slapped in the rebound.

“It was a tough play,” Miami junior goalie Jay Williams said. “I thought that as a whole,

Offense from 7A Co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Ed Warinner said after the game that OSU had emphasized slowing down the Scarlet Knights’ pass rush.

“It was something that was important to us,” he said. “Protecting your quarterback is always big to the offensive line.”

The offensive line opened up holes all night for OSU to run through, leading to the Buckeyes’ 324 rushing yards and an average 8.1 yards per rush.

With so many things going right for the OSU offense, Warinner said he is pleased with one thing in particular.

MICHAEL GRIGGS / For The Lantern

Senior forward Chad Niddery (19) is pinned to the boards during a game against Miami (Ohio) on Oct. 17 at the Schottenstein Center. OSU lost, 5-1, before falling again, 2-1, in Oxford, Ohio, on Oct. 18. we responded really well … from that point on I think we took over the game.”

The Buckeyes carried their lead into the first intermission, but saw it erased midway through the second period when Miami freshman defenseman Louie Belpedio fired a shot through traffic to tie the game. Frey said he never saw the shot.

Less than two minutes later, RedHawks senior forward Alex Wideman scored the eventual game-winner on a wrap around.

The RedHawks nearly added another later in second, but Miami senior forward Austin

Czarnik’s goal was disallowed as the puck was frozen beneath Frey’s pad before it was pushed in.

Despite catching a break, OSU couldn’t regain its first period momentum. The RedHawks outshot the Buckeyes, 25-5, in the second.

“They just played more desperate than we did,” Rohlik said. “Once they started playing desperate and controlling the play, we were in retreat mode.”

Miami preserved its 2-1 lead the rest of the way, attempting 62 shots to OSU’s 20.

“Balance. I think early on, they were attacking the run and blitzing a lot, and we threw the ball well,” he said. “That changed their mentality on defense and (we) started to run the ball more in the second half.”

Despite the success, Meyer said he does not want his team to feel satisfied.

“Complacency is awful in this business and with the players, because when you watch the film, we could actually have played a lot better in certain situations,” Meyer said after the game. “So I think there’s a lot of things to work on offensively.”

Midway through the third quarter, OSU threw the ball to Spencer for three straight

plays, all of which fell incomplete before Barrett punched it for a touchdown in from five yards out on fourth and goal.

While Spencer eventually scored on a one-handed grab later in the quarter, Meyer was not pleased with the lack of execution in the red zone.

“I still grade us down offensively,” he said. “When your quarterback has to scramble on the fourth down in the red zone, that’s a good play by an individual. So I still consider our red zone offense not as good as it should be.”

OSU is set to play next Saturday in State College, Pa., against the Penn State Nittany Lions. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m.

“It was tough, but I think we had a little bit better effort today,” Fritz said. “Maybe the shot clock didn’t show it but we did play hard, we competed.”

Saturday’s one-goal game came on the heels of a 5-1 RedHawk win on Friday. But while OSU brought new energy on the road, it was without the services of senior defenseman Justin DaSilva and junior defenseman Sam Jardine.

DaSilva and Jardine were issued game misconducts for illegal checks on Friday and served what Rohlik referred to as “team consequences” the following night.

“We just made some decisions,” Rohlik said. “We don’t want to lead the country in penalty minutes so that’s going to end.”

The ejections forced OSU to play with a shortened bench for the second half of Friday’s game.

“We were playing behind and at that point having four (defenseman) doesn’t make it easy to get back in the game,” sophomore defenseman Drew Brevig said. “It would have been nice to have all six when you’re wanting to join the rush.”

Brevig made it 3-1 early in the third period, but the RedHawks added two even-strength goals to put the game out of reach.

Penalties were costly for the Buckeyes on Friday as the RedHawks went three-for-five on the power play.

OSU sophomore goaltender Matt Tomkins finished Friday with 28 saves and the Buckeyes were outshot, 33-27.

sports 5 Takeaways from 7A five sacks in four games since the Virginia Tech game, when Barrett was sacked seven times.

OSU coach Urban Meyer has said this year that the Buckeyes are an offensive line driven team, and it has shown the last four weeks.

3. Secondary improving, but yet to be tested While the OSU secondary held Rutgers to just 196 yards passing, how much stock can we put into the Buckeyes’ performance?

Yes, Gary Nova threw for more than 400 yards against Michigan, but this year’s Wolverines are not your traditional Big Ten power.

The Buckeye secondary has yet to be tested, but will be on Saturday against Hackenberg and the Nittany Lions.

Hackenberg leads the Big Ten in passing yards per game and Penn State is last in the Big Ten in total rushing.

Needless to say, the Nittany Lions will be throwing early and often against the Buckeyes in what will likely be the first real test of the OSU secondary this season.

4. Redshirt-freshman H-back Jalin Marshall has star potential Marshall — a former high school quarterback — had to take some time before finding his role in OSU’s offense. On Saturday, that role become more defined than ever before.

He is simply a playmaker for the Buckeyes and keeps on

Coach from 7A Johnson said picking up Wilkinson’s 300th win was all that was on the team’s mind Friday.

“We love her. She just has a way of bringing everyone together,” Johnson said. “I always want to work so hard for her and I just have so much respect.”

After Sunday’s loss to No. 12 Iowa, Wilkinson had an opportunity to sit back and reflect on the experiences she’s had coaching. It was the relationships with her players and staff she said made her feel best.

“I said to the team on the bus, ‘I feel so blessed to be able to work with such a great group of people,’” Wilkinson said.

“They’re just working hard. And of course, I’ve had a lot of fun, a lot of memories.

“Just to see them work hard every day. It’s not about the games. It’s about the time we spend in our practices. We spend a lot of time together so you need to enjoy it.”

The Buckeyes couldn’t handle the team speed of Iowa on Sunday afternoon, falling, 4-2, after a comeback effort came up short.

The Hawkeyes (10-5, 3-3) scored twice in the opening four minutes to put pressure on OSU’s offense.

The first goal came from sophomore forward Stephanie Norlander, who darted down the right side of the field and scored unassisted for her 14th goal of the season.

Sophomore back Chandler Ackers followed that goal up just a minute and a half later, scoring on a rebound for her first goal of the season.

OSU trailed 2-0 at halftime, but it kept the Big Ten’s leading scorer, Natalie Cafone, in check.

In the second half, however, the junior forward from Fairfield, N.J., found some space in the OSU defense and scored from five yards out on a pass from senior forward Sara Watro.

improving week to week. In OSU’s win against Rutgers, he totaled three receptions for a team-high 58 yards and returned four punts for 45 yards along with one kickoff return for another 26 yards. He ended up leading the game with 129 all-purpose yards, 22 ahead of Barrett.

Marshall was expected to make contributions last season before ending up having to redshirt, but he’s proven so far this year that he can step up when his number is called. If he continues on the same kind of trajectory, he has a chance to become the most dangerous player on the Buckeyes’ offense along with the special teams units.

5. And so does freshman linebacker Raekwon McMillan Not only does McMillan have star potential down the road, but he is quickly morphing into an important player this season.

While he’s not a starter on OSU’s defense, his playing time has continued to increase week by week, and at times it seems like he is the more trusted option ahead of senior linebacker and incumbent starter Curtis Grant.

McMillan totaled five tackles against Rutgers — tied for fourth on the team — and made his presence felt throughout the game. Grant, much like McMillan, is a former blue-chip prospect, but it’s starting to look like the younger of the two is ready to unseat the elder sooner than anyone expected.

Regardless of Grant’s experience, look for McMillan to be starting games before this season comes to a close.

The Buckeyes are set to hit the road on Saturday to take on Penn State in State College, Pa. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m.

The goal was Cafone’s 17th of the season and gave Iowa a commanding 3-0 lead. With less than two minutes to play and trailing, 4-0, OSU thrust a flurry of shots toward the net.

Johnson and Sams both were able to find the back of the net, but there was not enough time to continue the onslaught.

OSU is set to continue Big Ten play Saturday in Evanston, Ill., against No. 9 Northwestern at noon.

Jardine from 7A to realize benefits of his injury. He took the recovery time to improve his foot speed, pivoting and edges, he said.

“That was pretty important toward my development,” Jardine said. “I felt like I was a stronger skater coming back than when I had first got injured.”

The Lacombe, Alberta, Canada, native then began to realize a new appreciation for the game, he said. His experience helped him realize that one of the worst imaginable injuries was bearable.

“The appreciation of being able to put the skates on every day and go out and compete I think is the one thing he garnered from this whole situation,” Rohlik said.

Two seasons after his surgery, Jardine said he still experiences slight difficulty in the afflicted area. His injury has robbed him of full-range of motion and complete feeling in his left hand.

“I’m very thankful and very blessed that I just have a scar now and a little bit of sensitivity issues,” Jardine said. “As far as the rest of it goes, I’m 100 percent.”

On the OSU bench, trainer Jeff Deits is responsible for keeping Jardine and the rest of the Buckeyes healthy.

The training staff undergoes annual emergency action training to ensure it’s prepared for medical emergencies such as cardiac arrests and lacerations, Deits said.

Members of the OSU men’s hockey team are also given cut-proof clothing to ensure their safety. While the NCAA does not mandate its athletes wear cut-proof socks and shirts, many Buckeyes, including Jardine, wear the gear.

Jardine, who didn’t like the cut-proof shirts, wears protective socks on his forearms instead. It’s an innovation born of necessity.

As he enters his third season with the Buckeyes, Jardine said he doesn’t notice the injury anymore. The sleeve hides the scar, and his performance — like his fearlessness — never waned.

“It’s a mask people hide behind. Although it can be funny, people must mean (what they post) at some level if they are willing to say it publicly.”

- Jed DeBruin second-year in geography

“It’s an awesome communication tool that lets you talk to people around you. Yik Yak is actually defined by and reflects a lot on your community. ” - Cam Mullen lead community developer at Yik Yak

YIK YAK

“I think a lot of the jokes are recycled. I’ve seen them in a lot of places before, like Tumblr and Reddit ... I think a lot of people use it as a desperate plea for dating and it all seems kind of creepy.”

- Chloe Goodlive fourth-year in economics

TAKES HOLD

@ OSU

- Sean O’Connor second-year in sport industry

KAT NIU Lantern reporter niu.57@osu.edu Social media giants like Facebook and Twitter might need to make room for an anonymous forum app called Yik Yak. Yik Yak is a social media application available for iOS and Android that allows users, also known as yakkers, to anonymously publish a 200 character post — or yak — to a newsfeed visible to other users within a radius between two to 10 miles, depending on the density of the community population. Yakkers can interact through replying to and up- or down-voting yaks, which affects their visibility to other users.

Yik Yak first became available to the public Nov. 6 and started out at Furman University, which co-founders Tyler Droll and Brooks Buffington attended. its founders went to, said Cam Mullen.

Cam Mullen, Yik Yak’s lead community developer, said the app spread throughout the Southeast to big state schools such as University of Alabama and Auburn University.

Droll and Buffington noticed the popularity and power of parody Twitter accounts at Furman University — similar to accounts like @OSUsophomore or @OSUCrush at Ohio State — that are controlled by an anonymous source with a strong following, and they wanted to spread this ability of fastpaced mass communication, Mullen said.

“Brooks and Tyler thought, ‘Why can’t everyone have this power? There aren’t only 5 funny people on campus,’” Mullen said.

“Considering that the majority of students

Brooks Buffington (left) and Tyler Droll created Yik Yak, a social media application that allows users to communicate anonymously within their community. have smartphones in their hands, they realized the opportunity to make a localized forum where people can discuss issues, events or whatever is going on in the area.”

Yik Yak specifically targets college students because of the population living densely on and near campus. College students also tend to be tech-savvy and share similar experiences with their peers, which allows them to identify with each other. “(Yik Yak) started to spread last semester

“People who post inappropriate (Yaks) are taking advantage of it and are cowardly ... I feel like people are usually joking because there are no consequences like on Twitter or Facebook.”

and by spring right around the end of the year, we were at 400 or 500 colleges. When the semester started this year, growth exploded and now we’re at over 1,000 schools,” Mullen said. He attributes the fast growth of the app to word-of-mouth from students who might have traveled home over the summer and introduced the app to friends who attend different institutions around the country.

According to Yik Yak data, 24 to 30 percent of undergraduate students at Ohio

State are active users, which would mean there are about 10,600 to 13,260 users in the OSU area that use the app.

“It’s almost a perfect community. That’s why we targeted them,” Mullen said.

The main features of Yik Yak are anonymity and geotags. The platform does not require an email address or Facebook account to sign up. Mullen said the app focuses on peer and community interaction.

“What makes us different is we are location first and keeping your privacy second,” he said.

However, the anonymity feature of the app has received backlash from some universities and concerned citizens. Some institutions, like Norwich University in Northfield, Vt., chose to block the app from its campus’ Wi-Fi because of cyber bullying.

Jed DeBruin, a second-year in geography at OSU, said he thinks Yik Yak can be funny at times, but also crass.

“It’s a mask people hide behind,” DeBruin said. “Although it can be funny, people must mean (what they post) at some level if they are willing to say it publicly.”

Sean O’Connor, a second-year in sports industry, said he likes the anonymity of the app as a user and, while he said he doesn’t post yaks, he enjoys reading what others have to say.

“People who post inappropriate (yaks) are taking advantage of it and are cowardly.

I do laugh occasionally, but I feel like people are usually joking because there are no consequences like on Twitter or Facebook. It lets people express themselves without any backlash,” O’Connor said.

The Wexner Center for the Arts is set to host Jodie Mack on Wednesday as part of its Visiting Filmmakers series. According to the center’s website, Mack has been gaining recognition and respect the past few years for her homemade 16mm films and is set to show her program titled “Let Your Light Shine.”

Mack, 31, was born in London and teaches animation at Dartmouth College. She earned her Master of Fine Arts in film, video and new media at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

“I think people see her as one of the most young and exciting filmmakers,” said Chris Stults, associate curator of film/video at the Wexner Center. “She makes the films and the screenings much more lively than they often may be.”

Attempts to contact Mack for an interview were unsuccessful.

Mack is scheduled to be there for the screening and to talk to Wexner guests, as well as perform during one of the segments.

The middle segment, the 41-minute short titled “Dusty Stacks of Mom,” is a tribute to Mack’s mother, Sharon Marney. The segment consists of stop-motion animations and will feature Mack herself singing live over top of the film.

The Lantern archives

RACHEL FEELEY Lantern reporter feeley.8@osu.edu As a boy, whenever David Rickert visited Ohio State’s campus, he made it a point to pick up a copy of The Lantern.

Upon seeing a comic, he knew what he wanted to do.

“I knew that if I went to Ohio State, maybe I could do this,” Rickert, an alum, high school English teacher and illustrator, said.

Rickert drew a comic strip — called “A Box of Trees” — for The Lantern while attending OSU from 1992 to 1996.

Now, Columbus residents can read comics drawn by Rickert once again.

He’s being featured in Columbus Alive , published by the Dispatch Printing Company, as part of its “Sketch in the City” feature.

“Sketch in the City” features local artists in six-week runs. The series is edited by Ken Eppstein, the owner of Nix Comics and a comic artist himself.

Eppstein met Rickert at a monthly gathering for a comics group they are both in . When the two started talking

and Eppstein mentioned Columbus Alive, Rickert decided to send in his own submission.

“David’s work was very school-looking in a way that not a lot of artists did,” Eppstein said of Rickert’s technical skill. “I just liked him, too. They were nice, funny comics and David’s a nice, funny guy.”

Rickert is the fifth artist featured in this series. But this is not the first time Rickert has had his work published since his days with The Lantern. Rickert was selected by one of his past professors, Anna Soter, to work on a textbook for her. Soter wrote “Grammar, Usage, and Punctuation: Rhetorical Tools for Literate Uses of Language” and Rickert did all of the illustrations.

Along with his work with Soter, Rickert has been using his illustrations to further education in other ways.

As an AP English teacher at Hilliard Darby High School , Rickert knows how important it is for students to learn grammatical subjects and how hard some of those are to grasp. To make these subjects easier to teach, Rickert creates and sells comics explaining harder-tograsp concepts such as “their” compared to “they’re.” While Rickert, who teaches

high school seniors, does not use his own illustrations in his own class, many teachers have already purchased his teaching tools, he said.

He also has been illustrating books for English as a second language students.

He has completed 44 of a 52-book deal books so far, with about four illustrations per book.

“If you’re an ESL student who comes and you’re learning English for the first time and you’re in middle school or high school, you don’t want to be working with these books that are clearly intended for kindergarteners,” Rickert said. “They feature high school protagonists dealing with everyday problems like dating and school work.”

in the past 20 years should be able to relate instantly to this film, because we are seeing our old movie and music posters jump off the walls and onto the screen,” critic Jake Smith wrote in the Madison Film Forum.

When the shop was closing, Mack took advantage of posters that did not sell out and began working with them to create her stop-motion pictures and animations. Alongside these animations in the film, the audience will also see images of Marney throughout the film.

“With a self-deprecating wit and a charm that is matched only by the keen precision of her art, Mack could be just what the avant-garde needs,” wrote Cinema Scope magazine.

Stults added that there will be a 3-D film showing in the series as well that, while only three minutes long, will “make your eyes pop out.”

Tickets are $6 for members or students and $8 for the general public. The event is set to begin at 7 p.m. in the Film/Video Theater.

hard to see these days, so it will be a really special chance to see this beautiful grainy film,” Stults said.

“The films are just a visual delight to see.”

She will sing karaoke-style over music playing with her film. She has written her own lyrics to go with the music from Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon.”

“That sure would make it interesting,” said Deanna Smith, a fourth-year in logistics at Ohio State. “I like quirky or different, out of the ordinary, things like that.”

The short chronicles the journey through the running and shutting down of the poster shop her mother owned and operated. Such change is common in a technology-based world, but Mack hopes to show a lighter side to the trouble by featuring real-life posters on the screen along with her added work.

“It was kind of fun to see, when I watched the film, I could see things I had said ‘This would be cool to do,’ and they actually used it,” Rickert said.

Rickert’s work can be viewed on his website, davidrickert.com.

The concerns that have been raised on campuses like Norwich’s are ones Yik Yak tries to address, Mullen said.

“We realized that with any big social media or app, there is going to be people who misuse it no matter what it is. As soon as we realized that, we’ve taken many steps to limit it and ultimately aim at erradiating it completely,” Mullen said.

Yik Yak has filters running on the content of every post which looks for “hot words” that might be associated with bullying or discrimination. These hot words signal a red flag and put the post in a different category where a moderation team revises it. Mullen said the moderation team monitors content 24 hours a day.

Yik Yak’s most effective tool to keep content friendly is community policing.

If a post reaches five down votes, it is removed from the feed. Users can also report a post they feel is unfit.

Mullen said it takes only one or two reports for Yaks to be removed, and as Yik Yak grows bigger and more diverse, the better the community is at policing itself.

“At bigger schools, if there ever is an inappropriate post, it’s removed within minutes,” he said.

Although the social media app targets college students, many high school and middle school students find and misuse the app, with many stories about cyberbullying on Yik Yak making headlines. As a response, Yik Yak uses geofencing to keep the app inaccessible to these young students. Mullen said Yik Yak blocks almost every high school and middle school campus in the nation as well as the surrounding communities.

“We really don’t like cyberbullying,” Mullen said. “We’ve talked to a number of bullying agencies and learned about how bullying works and used that as research for the best way to deal with it.”

While some schools banned the app, others have embraced it and use the app productively.

Some large institutions have reached out to Yik Yak for access to Yaks for monitoring activity as a way to keep in touch with and respond to the student body. Mullen said this is because of the importance for an institution to understand its students and know what is going on.

Conversely, Mullen argued that Yik Yak could provide power and a voice for

all users. He said anonymity allows the content to be judged by content alone without ties to the Yakker’s identity, race, gender or appearance. Another benefit is the ability to speak freely to potential strangers and view the opinions of the community without compromising the speaker’s identity.

“A lot of people are friends with their parents on Facebook or a professor might follow them on Twitter. So, they may not speak about sensitive topics because they don’t want to be judged a certain way,” Mullen said. “The quiet kid in the back of the classroom might be the funniest kid in the entire school. On Yik Yak, he can immediately connect with an entire school around him and not have to feel like people on judge him on what he’s saying and he can really see what they think. It’s awesome, and we love that OSU is embracing Yik Yak and loving it too.”

Chloe Goodlive, a fourth-year in economics, said she finds Yik Yak entertaining but creepy.

“I think a lot of the jokes are recycled.

I’ve seen them in a lot of places before, like Tumblr and Reddit,” she said. “I think a lot of people use it as a desperate plea for dating and it all seems kind of creepy.

Otherwise, it’s just funny to kill time with during class.”

Goodlive said she is OK with Yik Yak’s anonymity because she has not read controversial yaks during her use and the OSU community behaves itself. She said those who post inappropriate Yaks can probably be weeded out from the general yakker population.

“Those people are probably just jerks in real life. I feel like you can probably pick out the people doing that because I can go on Facebook and see people post stuff next to their own name. (Anonymity) fosters some controversy, but no more than Twitter or Facebook,” she said.

Yik Yak’s biggest market is in America, but the app is available internationally.

Mullen said his favorite thing to do while traveling abroad is reading what users around the world have to say.

“It’s an awesome communication tool that lets you talk to people around you. Yik Yak is actually defined by and reflects a lot on your community,” said Mullen. “People use it for incredible things, whether it’s promoting big events on campus, or coming together and getting a big student opinion about something.”
