OSU releases results of second campus climate survey WILLIAM KOSILESKI Senior Lantern reporter kosileski.2@osu.edu The results of Ohio State’s second campus climate survey on “sexual misconduct and relationship violence” have been released, and the findings show a decrease in female victims and a slight rise in male victims.

Administered by OSU together with the Buckeyes ACT initiative, the survey results were made public on Sept. 22 and came from undergraduate, graduate and professional students across all of OSU’s campuses. 13,152 students, or 21.1 percent of OSU students, responded to the survey.

The findings indicated that 20.6 percent of the female undergraduate students who responded said they have been victims of nonconsensual sexual contact by physical force or while they were incapacitated, which is a slight improvement from last year’s survey result of 24 percent.

For male undergraduate student respondents, 5.5 percent said that they have been victims of sexual violence since they have been students at OSU, which is an increase from last year’s 5.3 percent.

“So what sexual assault means in this survey is both non consensual sexual touching, and then also what we would consider rape and nonconsensual sexual intercourse,” said Kellie Brennan,

OSU’s Title IX and Clery Act coordinator. “(The past two survey results) are only two points in time, and it would be premature to draw sweeping conclusions about any type of trend,” OSU spokesman Chris Davey said. “Nonetheless, we are encouraged and cautiously optimistic to see that it appears, preliminarily, that there is increasing awareness in our community about this very important problem.”

Other results from the survey included that 6.4 percent of the

student respondents think that it is likely they would fall victim to sexual misconduct or sexual assault while on campus.

The survey results also showed that 62 percent of respondents reported that it would be likely that their safety would be protected by campus officials if they were to report an incident of sexual assault or sexual misconduct, and that 67 percent of them believed that their report would be taken seriously by campus officials.

That leaves about about onethird of respondents who said they

felt they wouldn’t be protected or that their report wouldn’t be taken seriously by the university.

“It is possible that this lack of confidence originates from a combination of the stigma surrounding sexual assault and a lack of awareness of resources that Ohio State can provide survivors,” said Gerard Basalla, Undergraduate Student Government president and fourth-year in political science and strategic communication. “We must push for progress relating to outreach to students to make sure they are aware of the

resources available to them.”

Davey said that while the survey findings are in line with national figures at other universities in the nation, OSU is taking the results very seriously and is looking to continue to bring the numbers down and educate students, faculty and staff about available resources.

“There are some positive early signs in this survey data,” Davey said. “However, it also still shows that what’s happening at Ohio State aligns with what we are seeing nationally, which is that an unacceptably large number of people in our community are experiencing sexual violence, relationship violence, sexual misconduct...

This is a long-term problem that we are going to have to commit resources to and work together on, as a community, for years.”

The main way Ohio State plans to combat sexual violence and provide resources for students who have experienced acts of sexual violence is through the aforementioned Buckeyes ACT (action, counseling and training) initiative.

Brennan said that the acronym encompasses everything that is done at OSU to respond to an act of sexual violence through prevention efforts, support services and raising awareness and educating the OSU community.

“We are really looking at (this survey) as an opportunity to learn

Apartment complex set for 2018 opening PATRICK WILEY Lantern reporter wiley.221@osu.edu After more than a year of vacancy, the southeast corner of East Lane Avenue and North High Street is finally seeing development. Come late 2017, the former Shell gas station will be transformed into another High Street apartment complex: The Wilson.

Schiff Properties, which has owned the parcel of land since late 2015, received zoning approval for the building in June. The firm plans to begin construction later this year, and plans to open the building in the spring of 2018.

“It’s going to be beautiful building,” said Jared Schiff, vice president of Schiff Properties.

The five-story building will feature 69 apartment units, said Karrick Sherrill, an architect of Shremshock Architects –– the firm responsible for The Wilson’s design. In addition, Schiff said each apartment unit will have a washer and dryer, dish washer and

closet space.

The 130,000-square-foot building will also include a workout facility, study lounge and commercial space on the first floor.

Schiff also brought to attention four “wow factors,” which he hopes will attract incoming students.

“The four things we focused on specifically were location, security, parking and private bathrooms,” Schiff said.

The Wilson will also have a parking garage and a full-time security team.

“Security is something we’re big on,” he said. “We want to make students feel secure in this building.”

The greatest “wow factor,” however, comes in the form of private bathrooms, said Schiff, who lived off campus before he graduated from Ohio State three years ago.

“I would’ve loved to have my own bathroom right in my own bedroom,” Schiff said. “That’s amazing.”

“Living where I am now, walking to class is not always fun — especially in the winter,” Davis

said. “I think the location alone is enough to sell prospective students on The Wilson.”

Schiff said he was looking forward to the building’s opening.

“We’re excited to offer the students The Wilson,” he said. “This

project will be a beautiful addition to the campus area and we’re proud to say The Wilson will serve as the northern gateway to the University area.”

Overdose treatment offered on campus OLIVIA BALCERZAK For The Lantern balcerzak.13@osu.edu Ohio State is continuing to increase health services available to students recovering from drug abuse in response to the nation’s heroin epidemic increasingly posing a threat to college-aged students.

Dr. Brad Lander, clinical director of addiction psychiatry at the Wexner Medical Center said the age for those addicted to heroin has dropped significantly.

“The average age of our heroin addicts in our detox unit is about 21. We’re seeing 18-to-24-yearolds, a lot of them, in the detox,” Lander said. “When you saw a heroin addict in years gone by, they were in their 50s.”

Family, friends and drug users alike will now have access to naloxone, used to treat someone who has overdosed before medical help can arrive, at the Wilce Student Health Center on campus. “(You) do not need to be afraid to go ahead and use it,” said Dr. Kathryn McKee, primary health care physician at the Wilce Student Health Center. “It’s not going to hurt someone.”

University police will be carrying naloxone and have received mandatory training on how to administer the treatment. Additionally, the student health center will be holding an open meeting

“We want to consider (drug addiction) another medical problem. You would not for a moment withhold medical treatment.”

on Thursday about how to use naloxone and the importance of not being afraid to save another’s life.

“We want to consider (drug addiction) another medical problem,” McKee said. “You would not for a moment withhold medical treatment.”

McKee is also a member of a program called Suboxone Maintenance and Recovery Treatment, also known as SMART, a group available to students who have received 12 months of treatment.

The program allows them to receive their medication on campus, allowing them to continue their recovery while in taking class.

Another service available to students is OSU’s Collegiate Recovery Community, an organization dedicated to providing members with a safe space to play games, paint, talk, put on events and meditate with other students in recovery. The CRC has its own

Another means of support can

be found in Squirrel Recovery, available on Android devices and set to come to iOS soon.

In August 2015, Lander, Wexner Medical Center counselor Brandi Spaulding and students at OSU created the app for recovering heroin addicts. So far, it has been downloaded about 2,400 times. The app allows users to rate their moods, stress levels and drug urges 24/7, all while informing a group of 10 people they designate

as their support circle.

Lander said his favorite part about the app is the emergency button, which, once hit, immediately sends a text or email to everyone in their support group.

The app will have GPS as well, so that people can find the addict when they need immediate help.

“Once you’re addicted it’s a lifelong issue,”Lander said.

Weinland Park to undergo further residential expansion GRACE FLEISHER Lantern reporter fleisher.16@osu.edu The Weinland Park Neighborhood Plan began in the spring of 2004 through the creation of a neighborhood working committee. The committee’s agenda sought to make the neighborhood a clean and safe place to live. But the reality was that gang violence and racial discrimination in the area were at their peak.

While the neighborhood still adheres to these priorities and challenges remain, Weinland Park now stands as the highest density affordable housing neighborhood in the city. The committee’s main focus has become maintaining the neighborhood’s integrity and housing diversity.

Following approval by the University Area Commission meeting on Sept. 22, Grant Park, a $54- million-dollar investment

by Wagenbrenner Development, has been approved to further the residential expansion in Weinland Park by 21.5 acres, with homes starting at $246,699.

“The revitalization of Weinland Park has been providing and is to continue to provide great economic diversity,” said Evelyn Van Til, resident of Weinland Park

A collaborative effort to improve the area has been taking place in Weinland Park for the last 12 years, one that community members and the university have noticed.

“It’s not perfect, but it’s the city working together to provide a mixed range of properties from ones that have historically been abandoned,” Van Til said. “Developers are working in all of Columbus to preserve not only Weinland Park, but the integrity of the Short North and the University District, which can be difficult in a city that’s struggled with economic and racial discrimination.”

While students might not be living in areas directly a part of Weinland Park, Van Til said there is a role students can play as individuals living in the surrounding area.

“Students are first citizens, and with this comes being nice, to the community you are immediately living in and to the individuals living with families surrounding you,” Van Til said.

New program launched to coach coaches NICK ROLL Campus Editor roll.66@osu.edu Athletes are led by their captains, those captains are led by the assistant coaches, and the assistant coaches answer to the head coach. But who coaches the head coach?

Ohio State’s College of Human Ecology hopes to answer that question with its new program, master of sports coaching.

Unlike master’s degrees in sports administration — Buckeye football coach Urban Meyer’s degree — or sports management, the Master of Sports Coaching is specifically designed for students who are actively coaching a team.

“You’ll learn from Ohio State faculty who are experts and former coaches, as well as from current coaches in the Ohio State athletics department as they teach you what it takes to make critical decisions and maintain high ethical standards while you train and motivate youth and adult athletes to perform at their very best,” the program’s website reads.

Assignments are supposed to be implemented on the students’ teams in real time, said Phillip Ward, a professor teaching courses in the program this semester.

“It’s incredibly practical. It’s designed for coaches, it’s not theory-based,” said Ward, a former national-level gymnastics coach for Australia. “(The coursework) isn’t just based around strong academics and scholars, but we have coaches and we have industry contributing to the degree.”

what our university is experiencing, what’s going on in our community and what (the students) think that the university is doing,” Brennan said. “We are turning that into the Buckeyes ACT initiative to take what we learn and turn it into more impactful messaging, awareness campaigns and things that can help broaden the message.”

The program was launched a year ago by University President Michael Drake.

“Buckeyes ACT is an important standard Ohio State is setting on the national stage for enhancing sexual violence prevention efforts as well as encouraging students to report incidents of assault,” Basalla said.

Nicole Haddad, a third-year student in world politics and finance, said that she is happy with what OSU has done to combat sexual violence thus far, but also that there is more that can be done.

“The aim to do better and combat this problem has definitely been increasing in the past, and I really appreciate that OSU is coming up with these different ways to combat the problem,” Haddad said. “But I think that there is always more room for improvement.”

Another student, Lucas Minnich, a thirdyear in new media and communication technology, suggested OSU should send out emails more often that includes information for services on campus.

“Everyone believes that the professionalism of coaches is important. Coaches hold an important place in society — they work with adults and children becoming adults.”

Ward said. “Every now and again you see some conduct that is unbecoming, and we believe putting ethical conduct as a core to our degree is extremely important.”

Smith compared the coaching degree to an education degree.

“Coaching is teaching,” Smith said in an email. “There is a need to educate aspiring coaches on how to teach today’s youth.”

The degree, while specifically for coaches, is not limited to the ones who snag the high TV ratings or national championships.

Ward encourages anyone from high-school coaches to Olympic coaches to look into it.

“We have gone to enormous trouble to make (the degree) rigorous, to not only find that there is a pressing need for coaches to be educated, but also that (the degree) would be what coaches need,” Ward said.

OSU coaches Tony Alfrod (left) and Zach Smith stand together before the Buckeyes game against Rutgers on Oct. 1.

The curriculum also includes courses on ethics, sports law and research, as well as a course on race, gender and culture in sports.

“If you think about what coaching is about, it’s about people,” Ward said. “This is often embedded as issues of who they are, and race and gender are critical features

of who folks are.”

Ward said that he and a colleague were asked by OSU Athletic Director Gene Smith four years ago to start researching if a degree in sports coaching was possible, and they had not seen similar programs putting an emphasis on race or ethics.

“I think that in addition to the survey, Ohio State should make sure to send out emails at least once a week to give information, including where to reach out for help when you have been attacked and what counseling services are available,” Minnich said.

In addition to these survey results, OSU recently released the Clery Act report for the 2015 calendar year, which indicates the number of rape and fondling reports has increased from the year before.

The Clery report indicated that there were 30 total rapes reported in the area, with 25 reported to have occurred on the Columbus campus and five reported to have occurred in “non-campus” locations, which include any university managed buildings across the country, as well as fraternity and sorority housing. In addition, the report indicated that the incidences of fondling increased from 12 to 14 in 2015.

Brennan said that the numbers from the Clery report were based on actual reports that are made to either law enforcement or to campus security authorities. The reports are tied to crimes that happen on university property to any person, not just OSU students or employees.

The respondents to the campus climate survey reported the sexual violence that they experienced during their time as an

OSU student. However, unlike the Clery report, this survey was not tied to location, as the respondents reported acts of sexual violence that they experienced anywhere in the world while they were enrolled at OSU, Brennan said.

“While we want fewer people to be experiencing sexual violence, we actually want the Clery numbers to increase because we would like more people to feel comfortable coming forward to the university because we want to get them help,” Brennan said.

The data in the survey was weighted, meaning that the students’ responses are proportional to Ohio State’s percentage of population so that it is representative of the university as a whole, Davey said.

Other efforts being put forth to combat sexual violence at OSU include the requirement that all incoming first-year students to take mandatory sexual misconduct and relationship violence training as a part of the First-Year Success Series, as well as an online training course that will help them to identify issues and support and prevention services, according to a university news release.

OSU used the survey software Qualtrics to conduct the study, and it was adapted to be an OSU-specific study from the 2015 study done by the American Association of Universities. The 2015 survey was sent out

Vet School recieves $39M grant from Stanton Foundation SAM HARRIS Assistant Campus Editor harris.2373@osu.edu The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine will be advancing its educational opportunities following a $39 million gift from the Stanton Foundation.

The donation will be used to establish the Building Preeminence in Veterinary General Practice Education program, which will focus on honing professional skills and help students gain real-world experience, said Rustin Moore, dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine, and the Ruth Stanton chair of Veterinary Medicine.

“The ultimate goal (of the new program) is to enhance our educational model to produce highly skilled, competent and confident, practice-ready graduates,” Moore said in an email.

According to an OSU news release, the donation is set to be rolled out in two parts, with $19 million awarded now and $20 million to be given after five years following the completion of set milestones.

The first half of the donation will go toward establishing the Frank Stanton Endowed Chair in General Practice and Canine Health and Wellness, seven faculty and 12 staff members. It will also fund the design and construction of a clinical and professional skills lab, and the purchase of

The rest of the gift will be used to endow the program, after the completion of milestones that the Stanton Foundation and the vet school have agreed upon.

“We are confident that we will meet, and hopefully exceed, the

milestones that were developed together between us and the Stanton Foundation and were mutually agreed upon,” Moore said, though he did not elaborate on the specifics of those goals.

Programming keeps graduate students involved on campus RACHEL BULES Lantern reporter bules.7@osu.edu In 2010, Ohio State created its first full-time position for Assistant Director of Student Activities for Graduate and Professional Students and hired Kerry Hodak for the job.

Only five years later, OSU was the recipient of the gold award for graduate and professional student programming initiative, awarded by the Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education.

“We’re one of the few universities that do a lot of dedicated programming for graduate and professional students in large-scale events, but also events that we do through OUAB,” Hodak said.

“Grad students all pay the student activities fee, just like undergrads, so we have a dedicated mission to make sure that we are programming for graduate and professional students as well.”

The types of graduate and professional programming are classified into five categories: professional growth, personal enrichment, family-friendly activities, social events and special events.

The events range from academic-oriented panels, to socials for adults and family programs for

Public Health. “It was six or seven people per group, and I didn’t know anyone because we were all from different programs. It wasn’t awkward, and it was a really easy way to get to know people that I wouldn’t have met otherwise.”

Mitchell said the events were good for informal networking.

“Young professionals at Ohio State have great opportunities to get to know each other through classes like these,” Mitchell said.

“Anyone who attends these events is open to trying new things.”

those with young children.

“For example, we have both an academic and non-academic job search series, etiquette dinners, a professional profile clinic, and a session on how to present yourself professionally on social media,” Hodak said. “We also offer a wellness series, cooking classes, family-friendly trips to the zoo, quiz nights, speed dating and a Valentine’s Ball every year.”

Additionally, the Ohio Union Activities Board has a graduate and professional student committee that partners with the undergraduate portion to welcome special guests like Neil deGrasse Tyson and Nick Offerman to OSU. Since Buckeye Village offers family housing, family events are frequently hosted there as well.

“For our family programming, we … do festival-style activities,” Hodak said.

However, graduate and professional events are marketed towards graduate and professional students.

“We do have our own branding,” Hodak said. “A lot of undergrads don’t necessarily hear about our events, even though they are open to everybody.”

Some of the most popular events among graduate and professional students are the creative arts series and quiz nights.

The cooking classes are taught by professional chefs and are extremely popular among students, Hodak said.

The Mansfield, Ohio native and 2008 Ohio State alumnus founded Show Me Columbus, a local touring service, in 2014.

“When I came back to Columbus (in 2013), it was common for people to say, ‘We’re going to this place, why don’t you show us around?’” Haynes said.

It took a visit from a friend of a friend for Haynes to start thinking about giving tours of Columbus professionally.

“She was coming from Toronto, and my friend suggested I show her around,” he said. “So I put a little tour together, and that became my Best of Columbus tour.”

Show Me Columbus offers seven set walking tours of the area, including Downtown, the Short North and Ohio State campus.

“There’s a lot of alumni who

come back, who want to see how the campus has changed,” Haynes said of the campus tour. “It’s not usually strangers, but people who knew the campus at one point and want to see what is different.”

But the majority of Haynes’ tours are by request and customized around the interests and needs of the client.

“I ask about interests and base the tours around that,” Haynes said.

COLUMBUS’ OWN

Hello Luna greets Columbus ADRIEN LAC Lantern reporter lac.3@osu.edu Before she started local rock trio, Hello Luna, Kenzie Ryan was a part of The Ukulele Club at Ohio State.

Ryan joined the club seeking an audience for her original songs, song covers and self-described “terrible poetry.”

After college, she moved to stages in local cafes and small venues and then to a studio for her first two solo albums, “Stand Alone” and “Everytime,” under the name Kenzie Coyne.

“Everything I wrote on my ukulele album (Stand Alone) was extremely happy,” Ryan said. “Maybe because it was the only thing I could do.”

In January, Ryan contacted drummer Michael Neumaier and bassist Diego Villasmil of local bands Fisher and Vianova, respectively. She sought a different kind of band, bigger than she and her ukulele. Thus, Hello Luna was formed.

“We asked her what she wanted the band to be, she said ‘I want a band to sound big,’” Villasmil said.

The band mixes Ryan’s folk music background with Neumaier and Villasmil’s rock influences.

Hello Luna was founded in January in Columbus.

Not long after its formation, the band put out its first single, “Stitching Holes,” in April.

Hello Luna submitted “Stitching Holes,” the only song it has released thus far, to local alterna-

tive station CD102.5. As a result, the band landed in the finals of the station’s annual local artist showcase.

“The reception has just been incredible.” Villasmil said. “People were like ‘wow you guys are so tight,’ but the truth is that we spend so much time on each song.”

The band is currently working on its first EP, with the intention to touch upon emotions such as disappointment or resignation.

Ryan is the chief songwriter, but the trio works together to put the full songs together.

“The first time we sat down and really worked on a song, I thought I was back at high school” Ryan said of the comradery of the band.

“We were .09 seconds away from making it to (the state tournament) on a relay. It was the 200-meter freestyle relay. (.09) is like less than a forearm difference. It’s actually a defining moment for me. It makes you be able to handle loss, handle defeat. I spent so much time, put so much time into swimming. I’m talking like 10 practices a week. Just to see you not make your goal, but come so close was hard, but it makes you know it was possible. I don’t swim anymore, but I still apply it to other things.”

“In this area we are able to attract all age groups, like the young recent graduates can feel like this is a place that they can come catch a game,” he said. “Because of where it’s at in the Short North I can see a 50-yearold couple walking in here and ordering cocktails or craft beer.”

Fadi Michael said he and his brother are always looking for new innovations to bring to their establishments. One such innovation at Julep is a “pour-your-own-beer” wall.

“We’re going to have a person to help with the pour-your-own (beer wall), to show people what they need to do, how to pour it and explain about the different beers,” he said. “The handles are going to rotate periodically, there’s always something new about it.”

Customers receive a card once they are checked at the bar and open a tab. After scanning the card, they will be able to fill 32 ounces of beer before having to check back in with a bartender.

“We are always looking to do something different from everybody else,” he said. “So we did a little bit of research, did some traveling. It’s a newer concept, so not a lot of places have it like this as a wall.”

The Michael brothers partnered with Pour My Beer, a Chicago company, to build the wall. The company has “beer walls” around the world.

Julep is one of many bars serving craft beer in the Short North, but Betsy Pandora, executive director of the Short North Alliance, said the bar brings a different kind of atmosphere to the neighborhood.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Thursday, October 6, 2016 | 9

Scare tactics wrong response to addiction As Ohio and many other states continue to grapple with the growing epidemic of opioid dependence, deeply graphic accounts of victims’ battles have entered the news stream. Stories of agonizing loss have emerged in an unconventional and detrimental manner.

Vulnerable people have been publicly displayed and shamed under the guise of “public good.” These pictures, and, more recently, videos, reflect the troubling reality of drug addiction, but fall short of their objective. In doing so, they cause more harm to the people they claim to care about.

No other medical condition would be utilized in such a humiliating and visibly disturbing way. It

speaks to the level of stigma-driven disinterest, even perverse fascination, given to people with drug problems and with mental illnesses.

Sufferers of drug addiction face the burden of stigma on two levels. Much of the stigmatization comes from a failure to acknowledge the scientific roots of drug dependency. Chemical addiction alters the functioning of the brain, distorting the thinking of affected individuals, much like other mental disorders. Behavior resulting from altered judgment is unfairly attributed to a selfish personality.

Integrated into the stigma of drug dependence, mental health prejudices accentuate existing social

and economic seclusion. The stigmatized image of individuals with mental illnesses as weak feeds into the presumption that victims of drug addiction are uncontrollable narcissists.

Stigma pushes individuals into the shadows and away from care.

Mental illness affects 1 in 5 individuals throughout the United States, with suicide being the 10th-leading cause of death. Still though, lives lost to addiction are dismissed as the result of lack of self-control.

Not only does the response disrespect the victim and minimize mental illness, its logic of prevention is completely baseless.

I am no less likely to use heroin

because I saw two individuals suffering from drug addiction. The nearsighted assumption that scare tactics and public shaming translate into lower rates of drug use emphasizes change in mentality needs to occur.

We should promote scientifically-supported initiatives that give victims of substance dependence visibility. Let’s move toward a society that treats mentally ill individuals, especially people who use drugs, with dignity and inclusivity, instead of persecuting the most vulnerable and abandoned.

Drug addiction is a health problem; we should present solutions that address it as such.

One program that does just that

is Safe Point. Safe Point, started earlier this year, uses empathy and scientifically proven methods to tackle drug addiction. In presenting participants with the necessary tools to combat drug addiction and start the road to recovery, the initiative empowers individuals to take control of their health in a nonjudgmental and compassionate environment.

There IS a superior intelligence “out there” -- and a loving one too. Your Creator wants you to acknowledge Him, and come to know Him and His ways. Don’t be deceived by evolutionism.

All creation screams of intelligent design! The odds alone of DNA evolving are virtually nil. Evolutionism is the only “science” that denies the law of degeneration (entropy). God alone is the origin of life, and the true God wants/needs no one to take away life for Him – beware the “god” that does! God exists, and the Bible is His Word. What is unique about the Bible?

For one thing, it is the only book with fulfilled prophecy (Isaiah 46:9-10). Test it yourself! For starters, try (current situation) Psalm 83 and Zechariah 12; (reformation of Israel after nearly 1900 years) Isaiah 66:8, Jeremiah 16:14-15, Jeremiah 31:7-10, Amos 9:9-15, Ezekiel 34:12-31, Ezekiel 36, and Ezekiel 37:21-22; (suffering/crucifixion of Christ) Psalm 22 and Isaiah 53; (future situation) Zechariah 13:7 - 14:21; (timing of the 2nd Coming of Christ) Joel 3:1-2, 2Peter 3:8/Hosea 5:14 - 6:2. “Too hard to read and understand” you say? Try the KJV/Amplified parallel bible (book) or KJV/Amplified/Complete Jewish parallel bible (biblegateway.com), and for a strict literal translation try Young’s Literal. “It’s all in how you interpret it” you say? The Bible, despite numerous transcribers over hundreds of years, is remarkably consistent/coherent and interprets itself. Our Creator is the actual author (2Peter 1:16-21). Beware of modern, liberal translations from “the higher critics” which seriously distort the Word!

Finally, if there is a God, why is there so much evil? We have rejected God, and now see what it is like to live in a world where God has permitted us (temporarily) to rule ourselves. Give up your lusts, and come to your Creator and follow His ways (Jude 1:18-25). All that this world has to offer is as nothing compared to what He has in store for those who love Him (1Corinthians 2:9 , John 14:15)!

WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL

OSU faces That State Up North JENNA LEINASARS Assistant News Director leinasars.2@osu.edu The Ohio State women’s volleyball team took down the No. 1 team in the country last weekend — but that doesn’t mean its conference schedule will be getting any easier.

The No. 14 Buckeyes will play two more teams ranked in the Top 25 this weekend – No. 21 Michigan State on Friday and OSU rival No. 23 Michigan, on Sunday.

On Saturday, OSU stunned fans as it took down undefeated, No. 1 Nebraska in four sets. This was the first time that OSU has won against a top-ranked team on the road and the third consecutive time the Buckeyes have been victorious on the Husker home court.

Junior outside hitter Ashley Wenz said the team’s performance in Lincoln, Nebraska, was a great opportunity for people to see what Buckeye volleyball is all about.

“The Nebraska match really gave us a chance to prove ourselves, and really bring us together as a team and show what we’re capable of,” she said.

Wenz feels that if the team can channel its energy from the match against the Huskers into the rest of its play, the team will be able to have repeated success.

“I think that bottling up the feel-

ing and the unity we had during that match, (we’re) trying to replicate it against every opponent,” she said.

First, the Buckeyes will have to battle the Spartans on Friday.

Over the past two seasons, the series is split between the two teams. Currently, Michigan State holds a 13-3 record.

OSU coach Geoff Carlston gave credit to the Spartans for being what he considers one of the most physically dominant teams in the nation.

He added that his team’s ability to slow down Michigan State hitters will be key to OSU’s success.

“They just hit the ball hard,” he said. “So our ability to slow them down with our block is going to be important.”

Currently, both Michigan State and Michigan are ranked above the Buckeyes in blocks for the Big Ten conference.

A player that will be imperative to the Buckeyes’ blocking game is senior middle blocker Taylor Sandbothe. She is averaging 1.05 blocks per set, and has combined for 61 total blocks this season.

Sandbothe ranks second in most career blocks in OSU history with 481.

Sandbothe received both conference and national recognition this week: Big Ten Player of the Week and the American Volley-

ball Coaches’ Association’s National Player of the Week.

She was joined by fellow senior, libero Valeria León, who won the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week and sophomore setter Taylor Hughes, who clinched the espnW National Player of the Week.

After their bout with the Spartans, the Buckeyes will have a day off before visiting the Michigan Wolverines. Members of OSU’s team noted that this match always comes with a little extra motivation behind it.

“The seniors always talk about it. You can feel it. There’s always a little edge to the match, a little more so than all of the other ones,” Carlston said.

One of the members of Carlston’s senior leadership, León, added that she loves the environment of playing at Michigan. “We go out there — you have so many fans against you — and it’s all blue and yellow,” she said.

The Wolverines are also carrying a 13-3 record this season. In 2015, OSU was able to pull off a 3-1 win while in Ann Arbor, Michigan, but the Scarlet and Gray were swept by the Wolverines at St. John Arena in the next matchup.

Wenz, who hails from Springboro, Ohio, is hopeful that her team can keep their victory train rolling with a win over “That

Team Up North.”

“Being from Ohio, it’s always great to beat them,” she said. “So hopefully we can continue that streak.”

The Buckeyes will first play Michigan State at 7 p.m. on Fri-

day in East Lansing, Michigan, followed by the match against Michigan at 1 p.m. on Sunday in Ann Arbor.

FOOTBALL ALUMNI

Football alumnus joins national anthem protests TODD NEER Lantern reporter neer.60@osu.edu Malcolm Jenkins, safety for the Philadelphia Eagles and former Ohio State football player, raised his fist during the national anthem on Sept. 19 before a game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, joining numerous professional athletes undertaking their own protest.

The widespread protests during

the national anthem gained media attention after San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick knelt during the 49ers third preseason game on Aug. 26.

The protest has been growing across the NFL due to the belief by many players that minority citizens in the United States are oppressed.

Jenkins said he has taken notice of the increase of colleges participating in protests, as well.

“I looked up last week across the nation and there’s a bunch of colleges that have participated (in the protest),” Jenkins said. “(University of North Carolina) had 60 or 70 students in their student section, black and white, holding their fist up during the anthem, and it just reinforces the conversation.”

The demonstration of holding one’s fist in the air was first shown this season by Marcus Peters of the

Kansas City Chiefs, and is similar to a symbol used by the Black Panthers, the black power activist group of the late 1960s.

With the recent rise of protests at the collegiate and professional levels, questions could be raised about how this could affect the athletic teams at OSU, especially given the widespread media coverage of the Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Charlotte, North Carolina, police shootings and the protests that followed.

OSU coach Urban Meyer addressed one question about a potential anthem protest during his press conference last week. Meyer said that no football players have requested to kneel or raise their fists during the anthem.

The Ohio State Department of Athletics said in an email statement that it respects the right of all individuals to express themselves. “The department does not have a blanket policy when it comes to the national anthem.

Student athletes have the right to express their opinions like anyone else.”

While there has not yet been a visible protest by student athletes at OSU, the University of Virginia men’s basketball team recently showed its freedom of expression in a photo tweeted by guard London Perrantes, in which the entire team knelt symbolically for injustice and equality, according to

Perrantes.

“You talk about students in the union and the ability to create change on campus, it’s not only the players but all those students, the student sections, that really make things move,” Jenkins said.

“This is an issue that regardless of color needs to be fixed and not tolerated.”

Peter Mansoor, a history professor and retired U.S. Army colonel, shared his thoughts on Kaepernick’s protest of the national anthem.

“Kaepernick’s protest has been effective in generating publicity.

But unfortunately the public’s attention has not been focused on his cause, but rather his methods,” Mansoor said. “I would like to see him follow through after the season is over by more concrete, rather than merely symbolic, actions.”

As a 49ers fan, Mansoor also said he took careful notice when Kaepernick began his protest.

“As a veteran of the Iraq War who has seen his soldiers sent home in flag-draped caskets, I was disappointed that Kaepernick would use the national anthem and the flag as the focal point of his protest,” added Mansoor.

Jenkins was joined by linebacker Steven Means and cornerback Ron Brooks of the Eagles during the protest on Sept. 19.

WOMEN’S SOCCER

OSU to kick off against Maryland AARON TOMICH Lantern reporter tomich.17@osu.edu Last weekend’s match versus Northwestern proved to be as tough as expected. A dominating performance on offense encouraged the Ohio State women’s soccer team this past week, ahead of Thursday’s 7 p.m. game against the Maryland Terrapins.

After finishing tied at 0-0 against Northwestern, the Buckeyes have looked past their disappointment in the inability to score a goal after having 28 total shots and 17 corner kicks.

“Obviously we were pretty frustrated after the Northwestern game because we really felt we had the ball on their attacking half most of the time,” said senior forward Lindsay Agnew. “I think our response has just been really good. This week in training we’ve been really working on finishing.”

“Being prepared for different styles of play and different players in their back line, I think that’s our main focus.”

Lindsay Agnew Senior forward

OSU, now 7-4-2 (1-2-2 Big Ten), travels to College Park, Maryland to face off against a team struggling in conference play. Maryland is 3-9-1 on the year (1-4-0 Big Ten).

Agnew praised the attack and their ability to put the ball in a scoring position, while also em-

phasizing the focus on finishing, ultimately resulting in a score.

Another point was carrying over the dominant play from the Northwestern bout, continuing strong attacks on the Maryland defense.

“We really want to work to combine with our forwards and (midfielders) to get behind (Mary-

with speed, a lot of speed on the perimeter and one of the premier players in the country at quarterback (redshirt junior J.T. Barrett), so we’re playing harder,” he said. “We’re not the most talented group ... but it really starts with strong leadership and direction from Tom Allen.”

Breakdown The Ohio State defense has been one of the most dominant defenses in the country through its first four games. Redshirt sophomore cornerback Marshon Lattimore and redshirt sophomore safety Malik Hooker each have three interceptions this season, and are looking for more.

Last week against Rutgers was the first game that the defense did not force a turnover. However, it only allowed a measly 116 total yards of offense. The Buckeyes currently rank No. 1 in the country in scoring defense and No. 3 in total defense. While Redding, Lagow and company may cause a few hiccups for the OSU defense, the sheer speed and athleticism of the Silver Bullets should overcome any maladies in the early portion of the game.

Indiana’s defense hasn’t put up a fight to the Buckeyes in the past, but this season, Barrett, redshirt freshman running back Mike Weber, junior H-back Curtis Samuel may not have as much success moving the ball as they have in the past.

If consistent with the last two years, OSU might be trailing at points in the game on Saturday, but the Buckeyes have yet to show signs of slowing down their dominance on both sides of the ball.

OSU should go into Madison, Wisconsin, next week at 5-0.

6-foot-7, 310 pounds, seems to swallow up opposing defensive ends and linebackers before they can even get out of their stance. A man of few words, the Maryland native has let his play do the talk this season.

Overall, Prince said he has improved in basically every way, with an extreme emphasis on his pass protection and run blocking.

In multiple times this season, Prince has collapsed the entire right side of the opponent’s defensively line single-handedly. Teamed up with redshirt junior guard Billy Price, running plays to the right has paid dividends in the form of big gains for the OSU offense.

The ability to dominate may be impressive, but it’s business as usual for Prince.

“Anything to help the team,” Prince said. “Anything to help (Weber), (Barrett), anyone of them pop through. That’s my job. That’s what I’m supposed to do.”

With a multitude of talent lost to the NFL, fans were anxious to see how OSU coach Urban Meyer would replace such skilled players. “The Slobs,” the self-imposed moniker of the offensive line, seemed to be a thing of the past after the 2015 season.

Redshirt senior center Pat Elflein insisted the name would stay, and the players moving up were more than worthy of the coveted title.

Considering how Prince has played so far this season, it seems fitting that when asked if his name can be considered a part of the group of mauling blockers, he only smiled and offered a short reply.

“Yeah, I’m a Slob,” Prince said.

The Maryland offense presents a challenge to the Buckeyes. Junior forward Chelsea Jackson and sophomore forward Jarena Harmon both pose a potent threat to OSU’s back-line defenders, scor-

ing nine goals and eight goals, respectively.

Redshirt senior defender and forward Morgan Wolcott said the team has a plan in place to defend the attacking Terrapin duo.

“There is a block in our defense to keep teams out of the central area,” Wolcott said. “Having (our) numbers around that area helps out.”

Maryland averages nearly 10 shots per game, a number the Buckeyes top with an average around 12. The Terrapins rotate several players in their lineup, which adds another element for the Buckeyes to prepare for.

“We noticed that (Maryland) are very versatile, and they try a lot of different players in a lot of different spots,” Agnew said.

“Being prepared for different styles of play and different players in their back line, I think that’s our main focus.”

The Buckeyes are taking games one at a time, focusing on the individual performances, scoring and winning crucial Big Ten games.

There is a short turnaround after the match in Maryland; OSU will travel to West Lafayette, Indiana, to face the Purdue Boilermakers on Sunday at 1 p.m. Purdue is 3-80, 1-4-0 in Big Ten play.

DOTTING THE i

‘Slob’ mentality alive with Prince NICK MCWILLIAMS Sports Editor mcwilliams.66@osu.edu Chase Farris was an intimidating force for the Ohio State offensive line last season. Replacing him could have caused plenty of headaches for the Buckeyes, but sophomore right tackle Isaiah Prince has proven to be effective in the starting role.

Prince, a native of Greenbelt, Maryland, is a former four-star recruit who was considered the best player from his state. On Signing Day, he signed with the Buckeyes, boosting an already large haul for OSU. Paving the way for redshirt freshman Mike Weber on the ground and protecting redshirt junior quarterback J.T. Barrett’s

“For me personally, there was no pressure.”

Isaiah Prince Sophomore right tackle

right side, Prince has been instrumental in the success of the offensive unit for OSU regardless of his young age. Currently, the Buckeyes have surrendered just two sacks through four games, and average 332 yards rushing per contest.

“For me personally, there was no pressure,” Prince said. “This is something we’ve been preparing every day in the winter and spring.”

A young lineman stepping into the starting lineup for OSU is no small accomplishment. Orlando Pace, John Hicks, Jim Lachey and Nick Mangold are a few former OSU offensive lineman who have had their names go down in Buckeye history.

After backing up now-NFL talents in both Taylor Decker and Farris, Prince has had large expectations about his play. Even though he has earned his way into the lead role at right tackle, OSU offensive line coach Greg Studrawa said he and fellow tackle and junior left tackle Jamarco Jones still need to improve.

“I’m pleased with some of the things they’re doing, and I’m not

pleased with some things they’re doing,” Studrawa said. “But they’re growing.”

Against Oklahoma, the offense for OSU faced a tough task in the defensive unit of the Sooners. Al-

though Barrett tossed four touchdowns that evening, the night belonged to the lineman and the running backs for the Buckeyes.

All told, OSU had 291 yards on the ground, and averaged 6.1

yards per carry. Multiple long runs, including Weber’s 35-yard scamper in the second half, were off the right side.

Coach Urban Meyer’s defense leads the country with 9.3 points allowed per game, but will face a dynamic Indiana Hoosiers’ offense that has given OSU trouble in the past.

“They have a good team. They have a good defense. They have a really good o-line,” Elflein said.

“They always play us tough ... so I expect the same. Those guys don’t lay down.”

While OSU will be a heavy favorite on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in Ohio Stadium, the past meetings between the Buckeyes and coach Kevin Wilson’s Hoosiers have had the Scarlet and Gray on their

heels, fighting for control of the game.

If it weren’t for former running back Ezekiel Elliott’s three second-half touchdown runs of 55, 65 and 75 yards, the Buckeyes may not have escaped Bloomington, Indiana, with a victory.

This season, OSU prepares for a revamped defense and the same potent offense.

Offense For Wilson’s offense, its success starts with redshirt junior quarterback Richard Lagow. At 6-foot-6, 237 pounds, the Oklahoma State transfer has filled in nicely for departed quarterback Nate Sudfeld, who was drafted by the Washington Redskins in the sixth round of the 2016 NFL draft.

Lagow has thrown for 1,278 yards and nine touchdowns with a 62.2 completion percentage. He is averaging 319.5 passing yards per game, ranked first in the conference.

If there is one knock on Lagow, it’s his willingness to throw the ball into traffic. The redshirt junior has thrown six interceptions in four games, which could spell disaster against a turnover-savvy OSU defense that holds a pluseight turnover margin, ranking second in the nation and first in the Big Ten. At running back, Indiana has slowly developed one of the more impressive running back dynasties in recent years. Former running

back Jordan Howard currently starts for the Chicago Bears, and Tevin Coleman plays a substantial amount of snaps for the Atlanta Falcons. Junior running back Devine Redding might be the next Hoosier back to make a name for himself in the NFL. After a 1,000-yard season in his 2015 sophomore campaign, Redding has already racked up 413 yards for an average of 103.2 yards per game, good for second in the Big Ten. OSU redshirt junior linebacker Chris Worley played with Redding in high school and described him as a downhill runner.

The Hoosiers rank 22nd in the country in total offense with just under 500 total yards, but Wilson said that OSU’s defense is so talented that even if the Buckeye offense hadn’t played in a game, OSU would still be undefeated.

“The structure is sound, they don’t misalign. To me it looks like there’s a lot of talent over there, but there’s a great competitive spirit with the team, and the kids are playing together and playing hard so they challenge every play,” Wilson said. “They make you compete every play to get every inch on the field.”

Defense 2001 was the last time the Buckeyes failed to score 30 points on the Hoosiers. And only five times since then has OSU failed to score 40 points. However, Meyer acknowledges that this team is dif-

ferent than past Indiana teams.

“I see an outstanding team,” Meyer said. “This is by far their best team, and that is being very respectful of the other teams we’ve played against.”

In 2015, Indiana ranked 121st in total defense and 117th in scoring defense. Wilson made a change to his staff in the season to make the Hoosiers a more well-rounded team.

He brought on 24-year veteran coach Tom Allen as defensive coordinator and associate head coach. Allen’s previous job was at University of South Florida where he coached the Bulls to a leaguebest 19.6 points allowed per game.

So far in 2016, Allen has revolutionized Indiana’s defense.

The Hoosiers currently sit at 40th in scoring defense and 51st in total defense. Junior linebacker Tegray Scales leads the Crimson and Cream defense with 35 tackles, including 5.5 tackles for loss and two sacks. He had 13 tackles last week at home against Michigan State.

While the Indiana defense has shown great improvement from last season’s incompetence, and Wilson and his staff doesn’t have to have nightmares of Ezekiel Elliott gashing the defense anymore, Wilson said there is still a lot of football to play before drawing conclusions of his defense.
