With President Barack Obama’s visit to campus on the minds of many students and faculty, one question prevails: Should class be canceled? The answer is mixed. Wesley Skupski, a second-year in business finance, said teachers should be democratic about cancelling class. “It should be up to the students in the class, they could have a vote,” he said. Obama is scheduled to make an appearance on campus with musical artist will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas Tuesday afternoon. A stage was being constructed for the event Monday on the Oval. Others didn’t think the visit should disrupt schedules. Jie Zhang, a firstyear in computer science and engineering, said classes “shouldn’t be changed just because a famous person is coming to campus.” Niraj Antani, communications director of Ohio State’s College Republicans, said no academics should be disrupted and no student or state dollars should be spent. “We cannot shut down things that students pay for, that I would also argue the state pays for,” Antani said. When Obama visited campus and spoke on the Oval two years ago, the

William Oxley Thompson Memorial Library was roped off for some time. When he came in March, the RPAC was shut down. Antani said this time, students should not be disrupted. Obama’s campaign paid to rent the Oval two years ago. According to a November 2011 Lantern article, the Democratic National Convention picked up most of the cost from Obama’s last visit to the Oval, but the university paid nearly $80,000 of the tab. That includes the cost of public safety and security operations, preparation and cleanup expenses. Obama paid the university $75,000 to rent out the Schottenstein Center near campus May 5 to kick off his re-election campaign. “If students are denied access for the Thompson Library, then I will demand that students be reimbursed,” Antani said. That promise also includes reimbursement for canceled classes and other facilities. Several buildings on the Oval will be closed during the event, and access to building entrances on the Oval will be limited. By 11 a.m. Tuesday, Orton Hall and the Faculty Club will be closed. By noon, the Oval will be closed, but surrounding buildings will remain open, including Thompson Library. An email to students described security for the event to be “airport-like.”

Domestic violence a wide- OSU mum spread issue, study says on safety task force findings anna duee Lantern reporter duee.1@osu.edu

The death of 18-year-old Alexandra Kogut at the hands of her boyfriend has made national headlines and sparked discussion about the need for increased awareness for domestic violence. Kogut’s body was discovered in her dorm room at the State University of New York at Brockport, where she was a freshman. Authorities say that Kogut was beaten to death by her 21-year-old boyfriend, Clayton Whittemore, who has been charged with second degree murder in the case. Whittemore admitted to killing Kogut but is pleading not guilty in the case. Kogut’s Sept. 29 slaying came two days before the start of Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Some people at Ohio State, like Amy Bonomi, an associate professor of human development and family science, said students need to be more aware of the prevalence of domestic violence. “Many students feel that it could not happen to them, and that they may have had one or two friends that have had some experience with dating violence, but they may view that as an exception, when we are seeing a more common pattern in teens,” Bonomi said. A research study released in September, of which Bonomi was the lead author, concluded that “one in three victims of teen dating violence has had more than one abuser.” The research study included data from 271 college students who were asked to recall dating violence from ages 13 to 19.

Swing states favor Obama, but Romney gains ground Teddy Ellison Lantern reporter ellison.91@osu.edu One state and a few thousand people could decide the difference between winning and losing the presidency for either candidate in the 2012 election. Swing states such as Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida typically play a key role during election season and this year should be no different. “The most important swing state is Ohio. It is absolutely vital for Mitt Romney if he wants to win this election.” said Michael Flannagan, communications director for the Ohio State College Democrats. No Republican candidate has won the election without carrying Ohio, but swing states also traditionally include Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Virginia and Wisconsin. President Barack Obama leads 50 percent to Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s 45 percent in a seven-day rolling Gallup poll. According to Politico, a news source that covers

kristen mitchell Campus editor mitchell.935@osu.edu Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee called for the creation of a safety task force last month, but students have yet to see any safety recommendations. The task force was formed after a string of bicycle and pedestrian accidents that occurred in the on- and off-campus area. The force was announced in a Sept. 7 email to students and staff. Javaune Adams-Gaston, vice president for Student Life, and Jay Kasey, senior vice president for Administration and Planning, were chosen to head the task force, which was expected to make recommendations to the university Oct. 1. More than a week after the Oct. 1 expected date, the task force results have yet to be announced to the OSU community. The recommendations are close to being finalized but will likely not be announced this week, said Jim Lynch, an OSU spokesman, in a Monday email. The task force was formed after several accidents involving students in the University District. In an accident that occurred Sept. 5, a student was hit and run over by a dump truck near a construction site on Woodruff Avenue. The student, James Daniel Hughes, had one of his legs amputated and is still at the Wexner Medical Center receiving treatment. First-year student Rachel Stump was involved in an Aug. 19 car accident that caused her to go into a coma. She has woken up but is still recovering. OSU student Yifan Gu was struck by a bicyclist Sept. 6 near Chumley’s on High Street. She left the scene in an ambulance that took her to the Wexner Medical Center, where she remained in stable condition Monday afternoon. Other campus-area accidents have resulted in only minor injuries.

OSU sold about 2,000 more parking passes than spots caroline weihl For the Lantern weihl.6@osu.edu

Daniel chi / Asst. photo editor

The parking lot outside Ohio Stadium where faculty, staff and students can park with their OSU parking passes. Because of availibility and cost, some students opt to not buy a university pass.

The total number of parking passes purchased on campus for the 2012-2013 school year exceeds available parking spots and is causing conflict for some commuter students. There are about 36,000 parking spots on Ohio State’s Columbus campus, according to the OSU Transportation and Traffic Management. Lindsay Komlanc, spokeswoman for OSU Administration and Planning, said 37,494 passes were sold to park on campus this year, compared to a 35,679 passes sold for the 2011-12 school year. Komlanc said that even though the number of passes has increased, Transportation and Traffic Management will be able to provide enough parking areas for parking pass customers who use campus at different dates and times. “It is hard to say, but we do know students coming to campus have a demand for parking spaces on campus,” Komlanc said. “If we have to shift spots around, we can do that to accommodate others.” The purchasing period for passes was shortened this year, due to the conversion to the semester system. From mid-June to September, more passes were sold compared to the June 2011 to October 2011 purchasing period last school year. Komlanc mentioned that the two most common passes purchased for students are types ‘C’ and ‘WC5’. This year, 5,483 ‘C’ passes had been purchased as of Sept. 7. This total increased 2,293 passes purchased from the 2011-2012 school year. ‘WC5’ passes are for students rank two and above who can park near the West Campus residence halls, and ‘C’ passes are for graduate students and commuter students rank three or higher.

Parking passes available currently give buyers permission to park until July 31, 2013. Prices decrease each month leading up to the expiration date, but ‘C’ passes purchased before Aug. 1 cost buyers $264 for the year, while ‘WC5’ passes cost $381. Because of the limited availability of spots and cost of parking passes, some students said they choose not to park on campus. “I have a car but don’t drive it to class,” said Mariel McGuiness, a second-year in biology. “Its just the hassle of it, and I don’t know where I would park.” Other students said if they wanted a ride to campus, they would find another way to get one. “I wouldn’t buy a pass, I would just ask a friend for a lift,” said Ashley Guan, a first-year in actuarial science. “Parking is too troublesome.” Parking passes continue to be sold without an increase in lot availability for this school year. In June the university Board of Trustees finalized a deal to lease all parking operations and assets to QIC, Global Infrastructure, an Australia-based investment company, for $483 million. The accepted bid limits parking rate increases by 5.5 percent for the first 10 years of the agreement. After 10 years, rates will be capped at 4 percent or a rolling fiveyear average of inflation, whichever is greater. McGuiness said she doesn’t agree with the privatization of parking because it made parking more expensive for students. Guan said she had no objections to privatized parking but said she wouldn’t buy a parking pass either way. QIC partnered with LAZ Parking, a company that specializes in parking operations, to take over operations of all permit sales, parking lots and parking garages. The agreement is not expected to take effect until the 2013-2014 school year. Alexandra Casola contributed to this article.

Honors and Scholars’ gnome crisscrosses OSU campus Kayla Byler Lantern reporter byler.18@osu.edu Albie, the Ohio State Honors and Scholars Center gnome, is roaming campus and rewarding students who find him. Each Thursday, the Honors and Scholars Center Facebook page posts a cryptic photo of Albie hidden somewhere on campus, with a caption encouraging students to comment and guess where he is. One student who correctly guesses Albie’s location is randomly selected for a $5 Chipotle Mexican Grill gift card. Money for the gift cards comes from the Honors and Scholars Center. The contest is only open to the roughly 10,000 honors and scholars students. “We were looking for a way to get our students interacting with our Facebook,” said Anna Morris, advancement officer for the University Honors and Scholars Center. “We also wanted to have a little fun.” The Facebook page has gotten about 250 more “likes” since the contest has started, up from about 1,500 at the beginning of Fall Semester. “It was the first thing I’ve ever won online,” said Arif Nuri, a second-year in public affairs and Sports and Wellness scholar. Nuri correctly guessed Albie’s location at the bottom of the William Oxley Thompson statue on the Oval on Sept. 13. The Center was looking for a mascot when it found the gnome and named him after Albert Kuhn, for whom the Kuhn Honors House is also named. Kuhn worked in the English department at OSU, was vice president for Academic Affairs and provost from 1971 to 1979 and served as director of University Honors from 1985 to 1989. Morris started the project at the beginning of Fall Semester with Anneke Mason, graduate administrative associate at the University Honors and Scholars Center. Students are on Facebook all the time, Morris said, but might not be looking at the Honors and Scholars Center’s page.

“We really have a lot of important information to share,” Morris said. “We wanted a place that we could share that information, but first we had to get students on our Facebook.” The contest is fun and interactive and also helps students become familiar with different areas on campus, she said. In addition, the project creates “a sense of community with the honors and scholars students,” Morris said. “It’s something that they can really do anytime, anywhere.” The project has “definitely” increased traffic to the Facebook page, Mason said. “The other day we posted (a photo of Albie) and within like two minutes there were responses.” Nuri and another contest winner, Nicole Maher, said they have “liked” the Honors and Scholars Center Facebook page since their freshman year but have recently noticed the page coming up in their newsfeed more. “I saw the picture, I knew exactly where it was,” said Maher, a fourth-year Honors student in psychology. She correctly guessed Albie’s location at the Browning Amphitheater on Sept. 7. “I just did it for fun to see what would happen.” Because of the positive reaction to the Albie project, “We are looking to do future Facebook campaigns,” Morris said. Albie might be roaming beyond campus next semester, she said. “We are really hoping that this goes further and that Albie will go abroad,” Morris said.

Obama from 1A However, other students like Ethan Schimmoeller, a first-year in biomedical science, said class should be canceled because “it encourages kids to go out and see the president whether they support him or not.” Gates for the free event are expected to open at 2 p.m. Tuesday, but a ticket that can be acquired from Obama’s website is required for entry. Costs related to the event, like renting out the Oval, are being covered by Obama for America, according to the email to students. In an email acquired by The Lantern, OSU President E. Gordon Gee said he was cancelling an address to faculty he had planned for Tuesday afternoon. “In the spirit of not wanting to upstage our national leader, I have rescheduled my own address for next Thursday, October 18,” he wrote. The first presidential debate was held last Wednesday evening at the University of Denver

in Colorado, a swing state, and many analysts declared Republican nominee Mitt Romney the winner. A vice presidential debate between Republican Paul Ryan and Vice President Joe Biden is scheduled for Thursday at Centre College in Kentucky, and the next presidential debate is scheduled for Oct. 16 at Hofstra University in New York. Obama was last in Columbus Sept. 17, when he spoke in Schiller Park in German Village to a crowd of about 4,500. Romney has not yet visited OSU’s campus, but he was in Columbus Sept. 26 at Westerville South High School, where he spoke to a crowd of about 1,700. Romney is scheduled to host a rally in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, Tuesday near Akron. According to a Monday seven-day rolling Gallup poll, Obama leads Romney 50 percent to 45 percent nationwide.

Violence from 1A Columbus City Attorney’s Domestic Violence and Stalking Unit director Anne Murray agreed that domestic violence is more common than many people think. “I believe firmly that it (abuse) happens. I think that it happens in high school, I definitely think it happens in college, I know stalking happens in college,” Murray said. “I think what happens is people don’t talk about it as much yet.” Murray said abusive relationships are sometimes hard to predict, because they often start out as normal, loving relationships. “We are so seduced into this idea of jealousy and stalking as cute in the beginning, so when does it become dangerous? When does it become ‘I’m overreacting’?“ Murray said. Domestic violence can take on different types of abuse, Murray said. There is physical, sexual, emotional abuse and stalking. “Generally women who are drawn to abusive relationships tend to have what we call a ‘pre-occupied attachment style.’ They have low self-esteem, they undervalue themselves and overvalue their partner, and they tend to suppress their own needs to meet the needs of their partner,” Bonomi said. Once the violence occurs, victims often start to believe that it is their own fault, blame themselves and stay in the relationship, Murray said. “I have seen doctors, I have seen journalists, I have seen nurses, people who by all outward appearance, society would say that person (has) got it all going on, but who are battered and think, ‘I’m not going to find somebody else, I’m only valuable in this relationship,’” Murray said. Bonomi said the myth that abuse only happens to certain groups of people is inaccurate and not supported. “There is a common belief that violence and abuse only affects low-income people, but our study shows that it’s not true. These are all students on their way to college. So there is something larger operating,” Bonomi said. One contributing aspect might be society,

Murray said. She also added that one in two children that grow up in a violent household are going to become abusive or a victim. “What happens is that we as a society condone violence, we don’t talk about it enough. Men don’t talk about it enough, as ‘that’s not cool.’ There are still a lot of jokes as, ‘You know, I would have hit her, too,’ and that kind of stuff,” Murray said. Most students are very vulnerable when they come to college, Murray said. They undergo life changes during their freshmen year, try to establish themselves and be independent. This transition to college might make it easy for an abuser to take the upper hand. “If you are a freshmen, and an upperclassmen is going to be dating you and tell you how it’s supposed to be, it’s going to take a super strong, confident person to not follow that path. Particularly when it starts out in such a sweet and intoxicating way,” Murray said. The Ohio State Department of Public Safety reported six cases of rape since January. In May, The Lantern reported on a sexual misconduct in which a then-OSU wrestler allegedly raped a female OSU student. The Student Wellness Center offers long-term advocacy to students who have gone through traumatic experiences, which include “sexual assault, stalking, intimate partner violence and sexual harassment.” “I often help students understand what rights and options they have in the aftermath of their experience. This could include their medical options, therapeutic options and reporting options. Many times, students struggle with knowing if, or when (and to whom) to report an experience,” said Brieanne Billman, a sexual violence and support coordinator, in an email. Throughout her experience, Murray said that it is important not to blame the victim if she decides to stay in an abusive relationship. Most victims are afraid to leave, or even being blamed for not trying hard enough, especially since society expects women to be forgiving and cooperative, Murray said.

politics, Obama leads in Wisconsin, Colorado, Iowa and Virginia, while trailing in North Carolina. The candidates are in a dead tie in Florida. Recent poll trends, especially in September, were slowly moving in Obama’s favor until the Oct. 3 presidential debate, in which most analysts said Romney outperformed Obama. Flannagan said he believes the current lead Obama holds is due to Romney’s rough September. “(September was) really bad for Romney. Most objective people would admit that the Democrats had a better convention,” Flannagan said. Niraj Antani, the communications director for the OSU College Republicans, believes that these recent poll trends are not conclusive. “I think Romney just needs to keep doing what he is doing. The race is a dead heat and I think Ohioans are understanding Romney’s message of less and more efficient government,” Antani said. Antani and Flannagan said they believe the economy is the most important issue for swing state voters. “People want jobs,” Antani said, “and unemployment was high under Obama.” The U.S. jobs report for September reported that unemployment had fallen to 7.8 percent, the first time unemployment has been below 8 percent in 43 straight months, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Flannagan said he believes people are optimistic about the direction the country is heading. “The economy is not where we want it to be,” Flannagan said, “but it is getting better and people are becoming hopeful.” OSU political science professor Paul Beck said that Ohio is one of few states where people are expressing optimism about the economy. “Ohio’s unemployment rate puts it in good shape in comparison to other states,” Beck said. Beck said that in order to sort through all the campaign chatter, students should stick to the basics. “Follow the issues of the candidates,” Beck said. “Look at what is not necessarily best for yourself but what is best for the country.” With presidential debates coming up Oct. 16 and 22, the candidates will be looking for ways to win over the electorate and specifically those vital swing-state voters. Obama plans to visit the Oval Tuesday, and doors open at 2 p.m. Early voting began Oct. 2, and the last day to register to vote is Tuesday. Obama was last in Columbus Sept. 17, when he spoke in Schiller Park in German Village to a crowd of about 4,500. Romney has not yet visited OSU’s campus, but he was in Columbus Sept. 26 at Westerville South High School, where he spoke to a crowd of about 1,700. Romney is scheduled to host a rally in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, Tuesday near Akron.

The Zombie Buffet 5K is scheduled to be held Oct. 13 at Arch Park in Columbus’ Arena District.

Have you ever been chased by zombies? The answer is probably no, but that could change this weekend. The Zombie Buffet 5K is scheduled to bring the zombie apocalypse to Columbus Saturday at Arch Park, with the first wave of runners and walkers being chased at 11:30 a.m. Participates can come to the race as a human or dress up as a zombie. Those who choose to be zombies can do their own makeup, but there will be freelance makeup artists at the race to help zombify. Zombies and humans will begin the event at different starting points of the race, and the two paths will merge, allowing chaos to break loose and the real action to begin. The humans wear a flag belt, similar to one used in flag football, with two flags on it, and the zombies gather as many flags as possible before crossing the finish line. The zombie that crosses the finish line with the most flags is the winner of the zombie division. Humans can also win a separate category if they are the first human to cross the finish line with at least one flag still intact. If you start out as a human but lose your flags or, as Brandon May, the national director for the race, described it, get infected by zombies, you can stop at one of the transformation stations that will be along the course. At the

transformation stations, humans are transformed to look the part of a newly infected zombie and join in on snagging other runners’ flags. The idea of a zombie-themed 5K was created from a joke during a conversation between May and a friend, who is an avid runner. “I am a former linebacker, so I don’t run unless something is chasing me,” May said. “We started it as a joke and thought that very few people would come to it, but it ended up being a big success.” May said the costumes are one of his favorite parts of the event. “You would not believe the amount of work people put into getting made up for the event,” May said. “It is some of the most realistic costumes I‘ve seen … and if you didn’t know about the event ahead of time, and saw people running and screaming with these elaborate costumes and makeup, you might think zombies truly were coming to get you.” This is the second year for the race, and it has expanded from its origin in Nashville, which was the only location for the race last year, to add additional races in Jacksonville, Fla., Phoenix, and Columbus this year. The first race in Nashville was held as a fundraiser for a local homeless shelter, and ended up raising more than $10,000 and included more than 2,000 participants, May said. Columbus participants will be running and

‘The Intergalactic Nemesis’ to flip through mediums of storytelling Ben Keith Lantern reporter keith.146@osu.edu

“Just dance 4” “Retro City Rampage” “dishonored”

@LanternAE

“The Intergalactic Nemesis” blends radio, theater and comic books into a liveaction graphic novel stage show. Three actors provide the audio to a two-storytall comic book, telling the tale of normal characters thrown into an extraordinary situation. “It makes it fun to perform knowing we’re the only ones out there,” said sound effects designer Buzz Moran, adding that, to his knowledge, there’s no other show with a format like “Intergalactic Nemisis.” “Intergalactic Nemesis” is scheduled to be performed at 7 p.m. Friday at the Wexner Center for the Arts’ Mershon Auditorium. Tickets are $10 for students, $15 for Wexner Center members and $18 for the general public. It tells the story of Molly Sloan, a prize-winning reporter who stumbles across what director Jason Neulander called “the story of the century.” “The story is that Earth is about to be invaded by sludge monsters from the planet Zygon,” Neulander said. “This story is about me getting into my own personal 12-year-old (self).” “Intergalactic Nemesis” grew out of a coffee house radio play put on by Neulander and his friends in 1996. “(It) was very quick and dirty, very different from what it is now. But in the creating of that project, I personally fell in love with the characters,” Neulander said. Shelly Casto, director of education at the Wexner Center, saw the show at a performing arts showcase in Austin. “I’m not a particular comic book fan or alien fan. I didn’t expect it to be a show that would appeal to me, but it won me over right away,” Casto said. “It’s hilarious, excellent acting skills, really unique format and it’s a lot of fun.” The show has only three actors, who voice the characters. A keyboardist performs the music live on stage, and Moran makes the sound effects. “The funnest (sound) to do is the five-tone musical tubes,” Moran said. “They’re corrugated tubes that you whirl around over your head to make a musical sound. We call them whammy tubes. There are two of them, one cut shorter than the other to give a different tone, and I whirl them at the same time. It’s the sound effect for the villain of the show’s mind powers.” Moran said revealing the villain’s powers isn’t a spoiler. “It happens right when we meet him,” he said. Moran was the sound effects artist for the show when it was formerly only a radio play in Austin, but he has stuck with the show throughout its ascent. “On again, off again, we stuck with it,” Neulander said. “It started to get a little

It was extremely flattering to be invited to do that, but I felt like the venue was way too big for watching a radio play.” Looking for a way to adapt the show to larger audiences, Neulander turned to a comic book artist, thinking about making a comic book from the show. “While we were working on that, I got the idea: What if we took the comic book art and put it up on a huge screen to visual spectacle that can fill a hall that big?” Neulander said. After stopping in Columbus on Friday, “Intergalactic Nemesis” is scheduled to visit theaters across the United States, Canada and Scotland.

[ a+e ] Movie trailers leave little to imagination in modern film ARTS Columnist MATT KRAUS kraus.86@osu.edu When was the last time you were genuinely surprised at the movies? If it takes a long time to answer that question, you might be quick to blame the quality of the movies and entertainment coming out. You might say that everything is predictable and formulaic, and thus all surprise has been removed from the movie-going experience. There might be something to that, but perhaps that’s only part of the problem. The real trouble lies in how modern movies have been advertised. For proof, watch any major movie trailer from the last couple years. For instance, the preview for the 2011 critical hit “Drive” is little more than a two-minute summary of everything that happens in that movie. It might not be evident while you’re watching the trailer itself, but it certainly diminishes the sense of surprise when it finally comes time to sit down and experience it.

However, one of the most extreme examples of this is the trailer for a film that essentially nobody saw, including myself. “The Double” is a 2011 spy thriller starring Richard Gere and Topher Grace. It received negative reviews, and according to Box Office Mojo it grossed just less than $138,000 domestically. The real tragedy here is the preview, which appears to reveal the film’s one massive twist just one minute and 30 seconds in. The question then becomes why Hollywood has decided to be so revealing in its movie previews. One theory is desperation; perhaps it’s so hungry for success that it is willing to tell the people exactly what they want to hear. In Hollywood’s mind, people don’t like being surprised very much. It’s more important to keep customers at ease than to lure them in to the theater and have everything take a left turn. There are a couple recent films, however, that make a noble attempt at changing the status quo. While neither of these movies are — or ever will become — box office smashes, they have been huge critical hits and seem to be wellreceived among those who watch them. One thing they have in common: their advertising revealed almost nothing about what the movies were really about. The most recent example is “Looper,” which was met this weekend with critical acclaim and solid box office receipts. If one were to judge the movie based on the previews, it looks like nothing but a stylish sci-fi action film that takes place in the city. Anyone who has seen

‘The Master,’ starring Joaquin Phoenix and Philip Seymour Hoffman, released in U.S. theaters Sept. 14. the movie will know that this is only the case in the film’s first half; and the entire climax of “Looper” takes place in a much different setting. In fact, the main plot — Joseph Gordon-Levitt must track down and kill an older version of himself — takes a backseat to a much different set of circumstances. The trailer for Paul Thomas Anderson’s “The Master” takes this practice of revealing almost nothing about the

film’s true goals to an extreme level. As it turns out, nearly all the previews for “The Master” are made up almost exclusively of footage that didn’t make the final film. These scenes certainly communicate the tone and basic premise of the movie, but anyone looking for any clues as to the film’s content will be disappointed. For movie fans looking to be surprised at the cinema, this is a welcome change. It’s no coincidence that “Looper”

and “The Master” have been two of the most buzzed-about films in recent months. They are exciting because they are able to genuinely shock and surprise audiences. It’s no fun to know exactly what’s going to happen in the movie you’re watching, and perhaps these recent successes can help to bring a sense of discovery back to the movie theater.

Guide to College Fashion

Rummage your roommate’s closet responsibly, share with care T.K. BRADY For The Lantern brady.1366@osu.edu

Courtesy of MCT

Be courteous when borrowing clothing items, shoes and accessories from your roommates.

Going to college is a great experience: new friends, new classes and if you’re really lucky, a stylish roommate with the same shoe size. Doubling your closet content can be a serious plus, assuming you follow some basic rules. Don’t: Take without asking. This is the key to any successful sharing agreement. Even just sending a quick text to ask for permission can save you from future arguments. Do: Understand differences in body types. Even though you both may be able to fit into a size medium top, don’t try to squeeze your size 8 hips into a size 2 pair of jeans. You’ll feel more embarrassed when something doesn’t fit than if you’re honest with yourself about your body beforehand. Don’t: Lend out your favorite clothing. Garments you have a serious attachment to should stay in your closet to be worn by you and you only. Accidents happen and you don’t want to end a friendship over some spilled beer. Do: Play fair. If you’re always borrowing her shoes and skirts, she has free reign of your tops and jewelry. No one wants to feel like they’re being taken advantage of. Don’t: Lie about damage to her clothing. Stains and tears happen, so the sooner you own up to the damage, the sooner you can do something about

it. Just know that if it needs to be taken to a tailor or dry-cleaner for a quick fix, it’s your job to pick up the tab. Do: Agree on a wash-and-return policy. If you know your shirt needs to lay flat to dry or you prefer to have something dry-cleaned, let your roommate know. This way you’ll avoid any shrunken shirts or damaged fabric. Some roommates will prefer that you return something right after you wear it without washing it to avoid misplaced clothing or damage. Don’t: Hoard outfits. Try to return clothing as quickly as possible. It keeps things from getting lost and will help you avoid unnecessary arguments if your roomie decides she wants to take a closet inventory. Do: Offer your style expertise. If you see your roommate struggling to put together the perfect party ensemble, suggest a dress from your wardrobe to help her out. It’s safe to say she’ll do the same for you in the future. Don’t: Borrow something you can’t replace. If you know your roommate has an adorable top from her study abroad trip to Spain, avoid wearing it. If something happens to it, there’s no way for you to replace it. Finally, the most important rule to remember is your roommate’s closet is not actually your closet. If you both want to wear the same nude pumps tonight, the owner has dibs. After all, she’s the reason you have any access to them in the first place.

Local playwrights to showcase work in bicentennial celebration HAILEY KIM Lantern reporter kim.3712@osu.edu Local playwrights will see their works featured as part of the bicentennial celebrations in Columbus this year. The Bicentennial Playwrights Festival, presented by Evolution Theatre Company in association with CATCO, is scheduled to run Wednesday through Oct. 20, presenting six short plays, with additional performances on select nights at Van Fleet Theatre. Written by local playwrights, the plays are also set in or are about Columbus. Mark Phillips Schwamberger, Evolution Theatre Company’s managing director, said short plays were selected through a submission contest. About 50 plays were submitted, and a reading committee selected six winners — “Gallery 10” by Leslie Robinson, “Paperback Jack” by Kevin Lottes, “Vested” by Austin K. Steinmetz, “Shut up Mr. Mandelbaum” by Robert Cooperman, “Room Service? Send Me a Room” by Johnrick Hole and “Mother of Presidents” by Robert Flanagan and Sheldon Gleisser. Also, two additional plays, “Spurlos Versnakt” by Laura Fullerton Gillbert and “‘Maudine Ormsby’ from YOUNG LOVE,” by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee. “Actually, the two additional plays first came to my attention when colleagues at the Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee Theatre (Research) Institute at the (William Oxley) Thompson (Memorial) Library presented them to me,” Schwamberger said. He also said the variety of plays should give the audience a good feel for the city that is celebrating its 200th birthday. “We have historical plays, comedy, drama and political plays,” Schwamberger said. “I think that presenting diverse plays is a very good way to entertain as well as educate people, because those can give the live view of what happened in Columbus.” Referencing the plot of “‘Maudine Ormsby’ from YOUNG LOVE,” he said, “I’m sure that many people don’t know a cow was elected (Ohio State’s) homecoming queen.” The Bicentennial Playwrights Festival is free to the public but accepts

Tuesday October 9, 2012

donations. Schwamberger credited the Columbus community for making it a free event. “We have lots of community support for it,” Schwamberger said. “I think the community wants to celebrate the city’s bicentennial. It only comes around once. Also, (the communities) want to encourage local artists. We have at least 30 artists associated with this festival.” Gleisser, one of the playwrights of “Mother of Presidents,” said working with Evolution Theatre Company has been a great opportunity for him. “It’s been a terrific experience,” Gleisser said. “I think Evolution Theatre Company is getting a reputation. It has done something special here showcasing original works of Columbus.” Gleisser also said he is honored to be part of Columbus’ bicentennial celebration. “It’s Columbus’ 200th birthday, (which is a) very unique opportunity,” Gleisser said. “I think a lot of plays deal with issues that (are) important to Columbus and (were) written by people from Columbus. What’s a better way to celebrate than that?” Katelyn Matuska, a third-year in political science and women’s studies, agreed this event is a good way to celebrate Columbus’ 200th year because it is a way for people to learn about Columbus. “I think all theater (has the) ability to be educational,” Matuska said. Schwamberger said he also believes in the educational power of theater and hopes the audience will see that value in this event. Van Fleet Theatre is located at 549 Franklin Ave.

The Zombie Buffet 5K is scheduled to be held Oct. 13 at Arch Park in Columbus’ Arena District.

Zombie from 4A embodying zombies to raise money for “Scares that Care,” a nonprofit organization that donates money, toys and other items to sick children. Steve Nocera, an Ohio State alumnus, has been training to out-run the “zombies” for several months. “You have to at least try and survive the race,” Nocera said. “You can’t just start off as a zombie right away, that’s not as much fun. I know my chances are slim for survival but if I make it, awesome, and if I get turned into a zombie, it will be fun to chase down other runners.” Nocera said he ran cross-country in high school and has experience running 5K races but feels this will be a little more difficult than other races. “I am a little nervous about how crowded it will be and having to maneuver around runners and the zombies, but I think it will be some practical experience if zombies ever do attack,” he said. Nocera will be running the 5K with friend and fellow zombie enthusiast Samantha Norris, a fourth-year in nursing at Mount Carmel College of Nursing. Although Norris has never ran in a 5K race before, she said she is excited to out-run zombies this weekend. “I am obsessed with zombies,” Norris said. “I signed up back in May when I first heard about it. I am a little nervous about completing it, let alone with my flags intact, but if I do get eaten by zombies I will definitely chase the remaining runners as a zombie.” Cost to compete in the race is $39 for runners and sprinting zombies and $25 for walker zombies, and tickets can be purchased on the race’s website. Arch Park is located at the intersection of Nationwide Boulevard and West Street in Columbus’ Arena District.

Nebraska and OSU football fans (right to left) Amy Hoff, Brandon Stone, Justin Strzalka and Adam Hoff mingle outside Ohio Stadium prior to the Buckeyes’ and Cornhuskers’ Oct. 6 game.

As soon as Ali Malik stepped off the Cornhusker Marching Band’s bus in Madison, Wis., during the 2011 season, he knew there’d be trouble. Malik, a fifth-year in accounting at Nebraska and drum major of the band, was preparing to enter Wisconsin’s Camp Randall Stadium for the Cornhuskers’ firstever Big Ten Conference game on Oct. 1, 2011. The Cornhuskers were taking their very first steps as a Big Ten member-school, having switched over from the Big 12 for the 2011 season. Malik, along with other Nebraska fans that made the trip, received a cold welcome in Wisconsin. “(Wisconsin) was not pleasant,” Malik said. “As soon as we got off the bus a lot of obscenities were being yelled. Even closer to the stadium people were just, you know, giving us gestures. It wasn’t pleasant at all. It reminded us of visiting Missouri in the Big 12 (Conference).” Malik said he thought there would be more verbal abuse in Columbus, but he was wrong. Columbus was still scary, he said, but “scary-nice.” “(Columbus) feels like Lincoln in a lot of ways. You see the same colors. You see a lot of the same traditions,” Malik said. “The people are almost exactly like what we have in Lincoln, especially the fans.” Malik was one of several Nebraska fans to journey to Columbus for the Cornhuskers’ first game against Ohio State at Ohio Stadium since 1956.

Hold the Heisman discussion for Miller DAN HOPE Senior Lantern reporter hope.46@osu.edu

Ohio State coach Urban Meyer said Monday that the team will be without redshirt senior outside linebacker Etienne Sabino due to a broken fibula suffered during the Buckeyes’ 63-38 victory against Nebraska on Saturday. “We’re going to miss him,” Meyer said. “He had surgery, had a plate put in … best case (for his return) is three weeks, worst case is longer.” Meyer also addressed two other injured players, senior running back Jordan Hall and redshirt junior safety C.J. Barnett, who both missed Saturday’s game. Meyer said Hall is “not right yet,” and that Sunday was a “good sign” for Barnett, who was “out there running around.” In addition to injuries, Meyer addressed many other topics during his weekly press conference Monday.

Addressing possibility of winning AP national championship While OSU is banned from the postseason this year and therefore ineligible to play in the 2013 BCS National Championship Game, the Buckeyes could still finish the season with the No. 1 ranking in the Associated Press poll should they win all 12 of their games this year. Meyer was asked whether he is OK with his players using that goal as motivation. “No,” Meyer responded. “We only completed seven passes, and we gave up a bunch of yardage … we’re not going to talk about that stuff.” Is Braxton Miller a Heisman Trophy candidate? The Buckeyes remain undefeated halfway through their schedule, and sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller ranks seventh nationally with 763

OSU sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller makes a cut while running with the ball during the Buckeyes’ Oct. 6 game against Nebraska. OSU won, 63-38. rushing yards and 14th nationally with 1,823 yards of total offense. Meyer still thinks it is too early, however, for Miller to be considered a favorite for this year’s Heisman Trophy. “I don’t think Braxton’s a Heisman candidate right now … but then again, I don’t know who is,” Meyer said. “I think at the right time, he will be a candidate, if he continues to play very well.” Meyer’s Champions Club Meyer named two players as his co-defensive players of the week for the Nebraska game. Meyer called senior defensive end John Simon, who had five tackles for loss on Saturday, the team’s “leader” and “soul.” Simon was joined in that distinction by

redshirt sophomore cornerback Bradley Roby, who intercepted two passes on Saturday. Junior safety Christian Bryant was also named a champion by the coaching staff on defense. Meyer named six players as offensive champions. Junior running back Carlos Hyde, who ran for 140 yards and four touchdowns on Saturday, was the team’s offensive player of the week. Senior fullback Zach Boren, junior wide receiver Corey “Philly” Brown and three offensive linemen — redshirt junior left tackle Jack Mewhort, junior Andrew Norwell and redshirt junior Corey Linsley — joined him as champions.

Sabino sidelined for at least 3 weeks with broke right fibula PATRICK MAKS Asst. sports editor maks.1@osu.edu Ohio State redshirt senior linebacker Etienne Sabino will miss at least three weeks after breaking his right fibula during Saturday’s 63-38 win against Nebraska. Sabino is expected to miss four weeks, according to a Monday athletic department release. OSU’s depth chart, which is “Unofficial as of Oct. 8” lists freshman linebacker Joshua Perry in Sabino’s place. First-year coach Urban Meyer, though, said the timetable for the captain’s return is fluid. “He had surgery, had a plate put in … best case (for his return) is three weeks, worst-case is longer. We hope to get him back,” Meyer said Monday during his weekly press conference. Three weeks of recovery would slate Sabino for an Oct. 27 return against Penn State in State College, Pa. Meyer said the loss of Sabino is “a tremendous blow.” “Sabino talked to the team afterwards, and it was an emotional moment,” he said. “This team’s getting pretty close because of guys like him. So that’s first. We’re going to miss him.”

Sabino totaled one tackle before leaving in the first half of the Buckeyes’ contest against the Cornhuskers, a 63-38 win. Meyer said he wasn’t sure what caused Sabino’s injury, adding he thought the senior only participated in about 14 plays Saturday. Just a week earlier, Meyer gushed about the linebacker’s eight-tackle, one-sack outing against Michigan State on Sept. 29 in East Lansing, Mich. OSU beat the Spartans, 17-16. “It’s hard for me to say he’s not my favorite player on this team,” Meyer said during a press conference on Oct. 1. Meyer said he and Sabino have a relationship unlike what might be typical between a coach and a player. “I have conversations with him like I would a coach. I listen to him. I usually don’t listen a lot, and then I listen to him,” he said, Meyer’s said he wasn’t aware that Sabino hadn’t played extensively since arriving to Columbus in 2008. “I didn’t realize that until I went back and did a study on it,” Meyer said. “He’s been a classic underachiever. Now he’s a leader. He’s a grown man.” Through the Buckeyes (6-0) first six games of the season, Sabino has recorded 38 tackles, two sacks and one interception. OSU is scheduled to play Indiana on Oct. 13 in Bloomington, Ind.

RECYCLE RECYCLE RECYCLE RECYCLE 7A

sports Columbus from 6A Like the reception many OSU fans received in Lincoln when they journeyed to Nebraskaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memorial Stadium last season, it appears that at least a few Cornhuskers were treated to some Buckeye Nation hospitality. Kylie Unger, 32, originally from Grand Island, Neb., graduated from Nebraska in 1998, and she came expecting the worst from Buckeye Nation after a comment spat in her direction during the plane ride into town. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unfortunately, on the plane, someone told me to jump off. It was an Ohio State fan,â&#x20AC;? Unger said with an uneasy laugh. Unger was also in attendance for Nebraskaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first-ever Big Ten Conference game in Madison and remembered the vulgarities hurled in her direction. Like Malik, Ungerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trip to Columbus was different. Everything that followed the comment on the airplane, she said, was all good. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been so nice. Someone actually walked up and was like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Hey, welcome to Ohio,â&#x20AC;? Unger said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been awesome (in Columbus). I expect to go to the bars and be treated fine.â&#x20AC;? Amy Hoff, 29, a 2005 Nebraska graduate originally from Scottsbluff, Neb., agreed. Hoff said she was apprehensive about making the trip to Columbus because of horror stories sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d heard about Buckeye Nation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were a little scared at first because weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard bad things, that Ohio State is probably one of the worst fan bases beside Wisconsin,â&#x20AC;? Hoff said. On Friday, Hoff toured campus, including across the Ohio Union at Midway Bar and Grill, where Nebraska fans congregated. The welcome she received was a pleasant surprise, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been fine,â&#x20AC;? Hoff said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been great since we flew in.â&#x20AC;? Even in the presence of fellow Nebraskans and Cornhuskers fans, you can imagine how Malik, bedecked in marching-band regalia, might be the target of abusive language. The abusive language never arrived, Malik said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been courteous. I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had one bad fan today. No oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been badgering us or pestering us, so I like that,â&#x20AC;? he said. The Scarlet and Gray did not extend the same courtesy to the visiting team or its fans. With an Ohio Stadium record crowd of 106,102 in attendance, OSU trounced the Cornhuskers, 63-38. Buckeyesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller powered OSU to victory, setting a new OSU single-game quarterback rushing record with 186 yards in the game. Miller also threw for 127 yards, completing 7 of 14 pass attempts. Miller helped lead OSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense to just 17 yards of total offense in the first quarter, but racked up a statistical advantage by gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end. In arguably the most impressive showing by first-year coach Urban Meyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spread offense to date, the Buckeyes out-gained Nebraska, 498-437 . Junior running back Carlos Hyde rushed for 140 yards on 28 carries and tallied four touchdowns in the game to help lead the Buckeyes to victory. OSU might have been inhospitable to its visitors on the field, but Buckeye Nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s welcome for the visiting fans, and the Nebraska band, was a welcome surprise, Malik said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been approached by a lot of (OSU) fans with nice things to say. They say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Good luck,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Malik said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s much better than any Big 12 school Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen.â&#x20AC;? On Saturday the OSU football team travels to Indiana to take on the Hoosiers at 8 p.m.

OSU sophomore cornerback Bradley Roby carries the ball after his 2nd quarter interception during an Oct. 6 game at Ohio Stadium against Nebraska. OSU won, 63-38.

Coombs: Bradley Roby â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;a 1st-round pick down the roadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; grant gannon Lantern reporter gannon.78@osu.edu Redshirt sophomore cornerback Bradley Roby might be a gifted athlete, but one Ohio State coach said his work ethic is what has taken him to the next level. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The reason he is good is because God gave him a lot of ability, but the reason that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great is because he has taken what God has given him and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mastered his craft,â&#x20AC;? said OSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cornerbacks coach Kerry Coombs. Through OSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s six games, Roby is statistically one of the leading defensive backs for the Buckeyes and in the Big Ten. He leads the conference in passes defended with 11, and his two interceptions are tied for second behind his teammate, redshirt senior cornerback Travis Howard. At Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s press conference, coach Urban Meyer named Roby as one of the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s co-defensive players of the week. When Meyer introduced Roby he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Co-player of the game as well on defense, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s every week, making play opportunities from the corner.â&#x20AC;? That consistent production can be seen in his stats. Despite missing the University of Alabama-Birmingham game, Roby is fourth on the team with 32 total tackles. He also has two tackles for loss, one sack and one fumble recovery. Coombs gushed about his pupil, and credited Robyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success to his work in the film room.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;A kid like Bradley, whose film study is extraordinary, hours and hours of film study, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll know his opponent. He understands the route thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coming, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prepared for the ball when it comes and then you go to finish those plays,â&#x20AC;? Coombs said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the guy that wants to make plays, that needs to make plays for our team to be successful.â&#x20AC;? In Robyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest effort against Nebraska, he recorded four total tackles, a pass break-up, and intercepted two passes, one of which he returned for the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first touchdown. His performance and labor with film has been noticed by his coaches and teammates alike. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bradleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a playmaker for us and always in there watching film, always competitive out there on the practice field doing what he has to do, always doing his job. So we love having him out there, especially on the back end giving us some extra time to rush the quarterback,â&#x20AC;? said senior defensive end and captain John Simon. That playmaking ability has not been limited to the defensive side of the ball. With 2:32 left in the first half of the Michigan State game on Sept. 29 in East Lansing, Mich., Roby laid out and blocked a kick from the Spartanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s punter. This gave the ball to the Buckeye offense 35 yards from the end zone, but they were unable to capitalize and score any points. Coombs has seen improvement from Roby since the coach arrived on campus and said he has a bright future ahead like former OSU cornerbacks Shawn Springs, Antoine Winfield and Malcolm Jenkins before him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Frankly, I think the skyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the limit,â&#x20AC;? Coombs said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think Bradleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a first-round draft pick down the road.â&#x20AC;? OSU will play Indiana Saturday at 8 p.m. in Bloomington, Ind.
