Boyd Laboratory, built 78 years ago, is gone.

Boyd, formerly located at 155 W. Woodruff Ave., is the first of four campus buildings being torn down to make way for the new Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Chemistry Building.

Johnston Laboratory, the Aviation Building and Haskett Hall will also be razed as part of a more than $1.9 million demolition, said Brendan Flaherty, a construction manager for Ohio State’s Facilities Operations and Development.

The demolition of Johnston Laboratory should begin Thursday, Flaherty said. Construction crews are working on demolition until Nov. 23, and then taking a break until Dec. 12.

“We’re taking off for the quiet time before finals and all of finals week,” Flaherty said. “No noisy demolition.”

Once deconstruction resumes during winter break, 19th Avenue will be shut down and demolition of the Aviation Building will begin, Flaherty said.

The street must be re-opened by Dec. 30, and demolition on Haskett Hall will begin in January, Flaherty said.

In May, The Lantern reported that the total project development for the CBEC is $126 million.

The 225,000-gross-square-foot building will “create laboratory space with the proper floor-to-floor height, structural dimension and environmental stability to support intensive research,” according to the FOD website.

FOD is also replacing air filters on the HVAC units of the Physic Research Building and Koffolt Laboratories, Flaherty said.

The demolition of all four buildings is scheduled to be completed by May 8, 2012. Flaherty said construction of the CBEC will begin next summer.

Debate surrounds distribution of $375M KAITLYN LYLE Lantern reporter lyle.42@osu.edu With the university looking into monetizing the parking assets on Ohio State’s campus, OSU students have many different ideas about how to spend some of the revue brought in by the proposed lease.

Right now, the minimum bid for a lease of the assets is $375 million for a 50-year lease. If the deal goes through exactly like this, the university would not only make $375 million in a lump-sum, but it would save neaarly $225 million in operation costs.

The estimated $375 million lump sum would be put in a university endowment. If the endowment returns what OSU officials expect it to, it will fund the CABS bus service, faculty research and student scholarships, according to OSU’s chief financial officer Geoff Chatas.

While most students are on board with more scholarships and keeping CABS running, there are concerns about where some of the money profited from the deal should go.

Brianna Papotto, a third-year in athletic training, said she thinks the money should be spent on increasing student safety measures, especially with the recent increase in crime around campus.

“The recent increase in crime doesn’t make me

feel safe enough to walk around campus,” Papotto said. “Unless you call the Student Safety Services hours in advance, there is little-to-no chance of them getting to you in a reasonable amount of time.”

Jillian Renda, a third-year in hospitality management, agreed with Papotto.

“Right now being on campus, I think my main concern is safety and getting to classes and back from classes without getting beat up,” Renda said.

Other students suggested increasing scholarships, lowering tuition and creating more on-campus parking.

The Northwest Parking Garage is one of many parking assets that the university is considering monetizing.

With the recent string of robberies in the campus area, many students are concerned about their safety on and off campus after dark.

One option presented to students by several different faculty is the use of the Student Safety Service.

Captain David Rose of Ohio State Police said the Student Safety Service is not meant to be a student’s last resort for a safe way home.

Rose, a director of the Student Safety Service, advises students to plan ahead if they know they are going to need a way to get home.

“The original role of Student Safety Services was to be the last resort of transportation,” Rose said. “It is important for students to be aware of all of their options, including other forms of public transportation, like buses.”

Amanda Appis, a fourth-year in human development and family science, said she used the Student

Safety Service system last year, but hasn’t this year because it takes too long to get a ride.

“I’ll call them and they will tell me that I should have called three hours ago if I wanted a ride. It’s just not convenient,” Appis said.

Appis said she doesn’t walk home alone, but instead walks with someone else, like her roommate.

“Students should plan ahead so they don’t find themselves in a situation where they are counting on Student Safety at the last minute,” Rose said.

Rose also said students should travel in large groups.

When an individual calls in to the dispatcher, the person on the other side of the line will ask for the person’s credentials, including their first and last name, their dot number, the location of the pick-up, the drop-off destination, the number of people who will be riding and the time of the pick-up.

There are six operating vehicles under the Student Safety Service and 25-30 students employed.

“The Student Safety Service is a service operated by students for students,” Rose said.

campus Site organizes inspiration ALLI MURPHY Lantern reporter murphy.840@osu.edu The days of a label maker, cutout pictures and corkboards are dwindling, at least without the use of a computer.

Ohio State students have begun taking notice of Pinterest, a new social networking site with added flair.

Pinterest is an “online pinboard” that allows users to “pin” or select photos from any website, which attaches the photo to the individual’s pinboard, located on the user’s Pinterest webpage.

Other subscribers are then able to view the photo and, if they desire, “repin” or repost the photo on their own pinboard. The original website the user pinned from is attributed in the post so viewers can view more in-depth details on the photo.

“Pinterest lets you organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. People use

WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL

pinboards to plan their weddings, decorate their homes and organize their favorite recipes,” according to Pinterest.com.

Users can have a number of different pinboards on their page to help organize their pins into their respective categories.

Ali Boone, a fourth-year in education, has six pinboards to organize her pins. She said she pins things like do-it-yourself crafts, recipes and outfits.

“I get on it at least once everyday for maybe an hour,” Boone said. “You don’t necessarily have to be on Pinterest to pin, so if I find something I like on another website I just pin it.”

Boone also enjoys looking at others’ pins to find ideas, she said.

“I found a recipe then I tried it and it actually ended up being really good,” she said. “You can find out about different blogs so I started following some of those.”

Alyson Englehart, a fourth-year in sport and leisure studies and business, said she also likes to view other subscribers’ pins.

“(There are) cool little decorating ideas for an apartment that are easy,” she said. “They have a lot of cool fashion tips and cool hairstyles.”

Englehart said she does not pin anything personally, but rather uses the site to search for things that interest her. “(Pinterest) has a lot of good ideas and easy things that a college student could do,” she said.

“The thing I like about it is how easy it is to use.

joining it,� Englehart said. “Pinterest is built by a small team in sunny Palo Alto, California. We’re striving to build a product and a company that people love,� according to Pinterest.com.

The “love� for Pinterest is apparent at universities other than OSU. Leah Miles, a fourth-year in human nutrition, foods and exercise at Virginia Tech, said she has a hard time leaving the site. “(My roommate) was on the website and showed me things from it and she was spending so much time on it and I had to join,� she said. “I’ve been hooked ever since.�

Miles said she visits the website about six days a week and almost all of her friends are Pinterest users.

To join Pinterest, subscribers must request an invitation to join and wait for the website to send them the invitation via email.

Bidding process to find a way to use the money to benefit all students. “There aren’t a whole lot of things you can spend money on that impacts every single student,�

Messenger said.

Messenger sits on the Parking Advisory Committee, along with Vijay Gadepally, the president of the Council of Graduate Students. The two lone students on the committee, Messenger and Gadepally are responsible for keeping the students’ interests heard at the committee meetings and raising student awareness of the proceedings.

USG has considered using the money to pay off debt on newly constructed buildings, which students still pay fees on each quarter.

For Autumn Quarter 2011, students paid a $51 fee on the Ohio Union alone, totaling $612 per student over the course of a typical four-year period at the university. “We all pay $3,900 about in fees over the course of our four years here. If you cut that by $600, that’s a 20 percent fee reduction for the next 30 or 50 years for every single student that comes to Ohio State; graduate, professional, undergrad,� Messenger said.

Renda said she likes the idea of paying off construction debt. “They’re going to have to pay that eventually, and

No statistics prove crime increase, Rose said.

Courtney Thompson, a third-year in social work, and Christina Castillo, a third-year in criminology, are both Student Safety escort drivers and employees.

Thompson said most pick-ups are generally the same. �Typically we pick students up, have a conversation with them, depending on the person, drop them off and make sure they get into their apartment or house safely, then go on to the next appointment,�

Thompson said.

The escort office is open to schedule rides at 7 p.m. Thompson said the majority of calls come in between 7p.m. and 10 p.m., but the most calls come right at 7 p.m. “Our lines open at 7 p.m., people will call right on time to guarantee a ride for two in the morning,�

Thompson said.

The amount of rides a Student Safety escort will give and at what time depends on the night. “Most nights rides are constant. Sometimes the time of night depends on what library a person is at and when that library closes. A lot of people stay late and make calls for right when the library closes,� said Thompson.

Thompson said most of the pick-ups are at libraries, especially the Science and Engineering Library and William Oxley Thompson Memorial Library.

Castillo said that more women tend to call for rides than men. “We definitely have more girls than boys. If we have time in-between rides and are doing impromptu pick-ups, we are looking for girls who are alone,�

Castillo said.

Thompson told The Lantern that she has never felt unsafe out on the job. “I always have a partner and we are in a van.

And we have a radio if we need to contact police,�

Thompson said.

Rose said Student Safety Service employees are never in any unsafe conditions when working. “The vehicles are marked and the employees

rather than having students pay more per quarter, if they could earn that much money by selling the parking, that would be good,� Renda said.

This idea and others are still in development. The decision process is not yet in the phase of deciding what to do with the money, Messenger said. “It’s definitely in our best interest as students that we are negotiating for something that comes back to every single student,� Messenger said. “The fee thing’s a suggestion, but there are other things we can spend money on, that are for every single student, that aren’t kind of narrow developments with that money.�

Although they can’t control the fee increase, Messenger said USG is also working to ensure that students won’t pay any fees that they don’t pay now, like being able to park in garages for free for events at the Union and other buildings around campus.

Companies that were interested were asked to show their qualifications for running the university’s parking operations by Nov. 2.

At a town hall meeting Nov. 9, Chatas said OSU had a list of 10 interested companies.

As of Nov. 10, the university has released a list of seven qualified companies: Alinda & Interpark, Carlyle Infrastructure Partners & Standard Parking, Industry Funds Management & Parking Solutions, Macquarie Capital & Central Parking, Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan & Imperial Parking, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Ampco/ACS and QIC Private Capital & LAZ Parking, according to a press release on OSU’s business and finance website.

The bidding process will not begin until Winter Quarter 2012, Chatas said.

wear a uniform. There are always two people in a vehicle,“ Rose said.

In light of the recent crime in the off-campus area, Student Safety has seen an increase in calls and ride requests. “I have noticed more pick-up calls from guys since the increase in crime attacks and an increase in calls in general. It’s just people being precautious,� Castillo said.

Rose said that currently there are no statistics that prove there has been an increase in crime. “Historically, when there is an increase of crime in the community, our ridership goes up,� Rose said.

Rose said that in 2010, the Student Safety Service provided more than 24,000 escorts to students.

Even with the recent string of crimes, Castillo said she still sees people walking in the dark, despite the services offered by Student Safety. “You’re still going to see people walking around by themselves, they think it won’t happen to them,�

Castillo said.

Thompson said she wanted to get the word out about Student Safety’s availability. “People need to use us,� Thompson said.

There are a few rules that the Student Safety Service has implemented, such as: no alcohol is allowed in the vehicle, there is a three-people maximum for groups, no extra stops are allowed to be made between the pick-up place and drop-off destination, and if a student misses two scheduled escorts, they will be denied escort privileges for the rest of the quarter.

Tim Hoerle, a second–year in business, said that he doesn’t use student safety because his classes are during the day and he doesn’t study late at the library. “Maybe next quarter I will use them more because all of my classes are at night,� Hoerle said.

Hoerle also said that he was not taking any extra precautions despite the recent crime increase around campus.

Student Safety Service is available from 7 p.m. to 3 a.m. during Autumn, Spring, and Summer Quarters and are available 6 p.m. to 3 a.m. during Winter Quarter.

Ravenel’s role redefined for No. 3 OSU

finished with seven points and one rebound.

Sullinger said Ravenel’s performance was nothing surprising.

“The usual,” Sullinger said.

“That’s what he does in practice.

That’s the way he plays. He played really well today. Going three-for-three, took a big-time charge and a big-time rebound.

That’s what he does.”

It hasn’t been an easy journey for Ravenel. The forward from Tampa, Fla., started his career at Boston College but transferred to OSU after his freshman season.

Because of NCAA rules, Ravenel was forced to give up a year of eligibility and sit out last year’s season.

Ravenel said he was excited to finally get back on the court.

“I’ve been patiently waiting to get back out there,” Ravenel said. “I feel like I’ve improved a lot over the last year by working with guys like Jared, (former OSU forward Dallas Lauderdale) and (former OSU forward David Lighty). I’ve been real anxious to get in the game.”

MICHAEL PERIATT Asst. sports editor periatt.1@osu.edu Sophomore forward Jared Sullinger gets most of the publicity for the Ohio State basketball team, but even the preseason All-American and player of the year candidate needs a break.

That’s when junior forward Evan Ravenel comes off the bench.

Replacing a player like Sullinger is undoubtedly difficult, but Ravenel has made the most of his opportunities, especially during OSU’s first test of the season against No. 7 Florida.

Ravenel logged 14 minutes during the Buckeyes’ 81-74 victory over the Gators and played a key role coming off the bench.

He showed a range of offensive skills, connecting on a long two-point field goal and showing the athleticism to finish an alley-oop from sophomore guard Aaron Craft. In all, Ravenel made all three of his shot attempts and

Ravenel is not a go-to player for the Buckeyes, but OSU coach Thad Matta said he still has an important part to play on the team.

“I thought Ravenel came in and really gave us great minutes,” Matta said. “Evan understands he has a role to fulfill on this team. As long as he continues to embrace that role and gets easy buckets , gets the rebounds … that’s big for us.”

Ravenel is currently in Matta’s rotation as the first or second player to enter the game off the bench along with sophomore guard Jordan Sibert. He said he doesn’t mind his current role and feels he has a meaningful impact on the game.

“I feel I bring intensity off the bench,” Ravenel said. “I come in and play hard and work on our defensible principles and do everything I need to do … to back up Jared and (sophomore forward Deshaun Thomas).”

The Buckeyes next face Jackson State on Friday at the Schottenstein center at 9 p.m.

The No. 14 OSU men’s hockey team (8-3-1, 5-2-1) will face No. 7 Michigan (7-3-2, 3-3-2), in a two-game series starting Friday night in Ann Arbor, Mich. The Buckeyes, ranked for the first time this season, are currently on a five-game winning streak and unbeaten in their last seven games.

OSU head coach Mark Osiecki is looking forward to the test facing Michigan on the road will pose for his team.

“We know what to expect playing against Michigan,” he said. “We expect a wellcoached team, and a team that plays at a high level and competes.”

Playing at Michigan is always fun for senior forward Danny Dries, a Michigan native.

“Being from around there, it’s always fun to have family and friends around and play in front of them,” he said.

“It’s a pretty fun environment.

Youcan’t let it intimidate you.”

OSU freshman forward Tanner Fritz looks down the ice for an opportunity during the 3rd period of an NCAA men’s hockey game against Northern Michigan Nov. 11, 2011. OSU won, 4-1. said that playing Michigan is special because of the historic rivalry between the two schools, but that the real importance of the games are the conference points that could be gained.

“We have to realize and respect the rivalry for both schools. On top of that, the CCHA points are important for this team,” he said.

One of the things OSU has done well is play disciplined. OSU has had a season-low four penalties in each of their past four games. When the Buckeyes have had to play a man down during the five-game winning streak, they’ve been perfect, killing all 19 of their opponents’ power plays.

“We have done some

OSU is currently tied for second in the CCHA with 17 points. Michigan has 12 points and stands alone in sixth place.

Osiecki attributes the recent success to players gelling and coming together as one.

“Whether they’ve had a lot of playing time or a little, they’ve done well,” he said.

things in practice to make our guys move their feet and keep their sticks down,” Osiecki said. “I think that has been a big factor in us being smart and knowing we can play hard and stay out of the penalty box.”

The Buckeyes have been no slouch on the offensive end either, outscoring their opponents, 27-6, during the seven-game unbeaten streak. OSU leads the CCHA with 3.38 goals per game in conference play.

Heeter said he enjoys having a potent offense play in front of him, but that it can be tough to get into the flow of the game when he doesn’t have to make a ton of saves.

“It’s different, it’s tough for sure,” he said. “It’s just a different element, something you have to get used to.”

Michigan is second in the CCHA with 3.25 goals per game, and posted a season-high 10 goals in a game against St. Lawrence in October.

OSU and Michigan are set to take the ice at 7:35 p.m. Friday and play again Saturday night.

In many ways, 2011 has been a forgettable year for the Ohio State football program. Tuesday’s announcement by athletic director Gene Smith, Undergraduate Student Government, Block “O” and OSU Sportsmanship Council of an initiative to treat all visiting Penn State fans respectfully for Saturday’s OSU-PSU game stands as a bright spot.

Since the December revelation that six OSU football players sold team memorabilia in exchange for improper benefits in the form of tattoos, OSU football and Buckeye Nation has

been reeling. Beloved former coach Jim Tressel was forced to resign as part of the fallout from the team’s NCAA violations and the 2010 season, including a 2011 Sugar Bowl victory, was vacated. Ever since, the OSU roster has been a merry-go-roundesque shuffle of suspended and not suspended players.

OSU’s football team, its fans and the university itself continue to be the subject of national scrutiny and ridicule.

Then a troubling, new scandal was unearthed at Penn State last week.

Happy Valley was rocked by its own football program’s misdeeds as former PSU defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky was charged with sexually abusing children at a Nittany Lions football facility. PSU’s president for finance and business, Gary Schultz, and athletic director, Tim Curley, were also charged with perjury and failure to report child abuse.

University President Graham Spanier resigned in the wake of the charges being made public and Joe Paterno, NCAA Division I’s all-time wins leader and the head coach of PSU football for 46 years, was fired.

On the night the PSU Board of Trustees announced Spanier’s resignation and Paterno’s firing, a faction of students rioted in State College, Pa., flipping a TV news truck on

College Avenue and harassing police and members of the media.

Off-the-field situations like these, particularly the incidents at PSU, put the true significance of a collegiate athletic competition into perspective, and Smith did well to recognize this by encouraging Buckeye Nation to be respectful toward visiting Nittany Lions supporters this weekend.

“With the incidents occurring over at Penn State University this past week, we thought it was important that we try and share with our fans this reality that we face by hosting Penn State this weekend,” Smith said at OSU coach Luke Fickell’s Tuesday press conference. “We’re asking all of our Buckeye fans... to continue to show the sportsmanship and class that they represent as we welcome our visitors.

“The fans that will come here and the young men that participate in this contest this weekend are coming here as our visitors. We ask that all of our fans continue to demonstrate great respect.”

OSU fans should consider themselves lucky that the Tattoogate scandal was revealed with only a neutral-site bowl game remaining in its season. By comparison, PSU still had three regular season games to play — two of which are still to be played at Ohio Stadium

and at Wisconsin — when news of its scandal broke. PSU could also play two additional games should it qualify for the Big Ten Championship Game and a bowl game after that.

“Penn State students love their school just as much as we love ours,” USG President Nick Messenger said at the Tuesday press conference. “It is important to remember the victims of this tragedy, but it is also important to remember that our visitors are not people whom we should direct our anger.”

Well said.

The potential for Nittany Lions players, coaches and fans to be verbally abused increases exponentially when they leave State College, but OSU fans should be the last to poke fun at a program in suffering.

OSU students, faculty and staff have probably heard enough tattoo jokes to last them a lifetime. You remember how that feels — it’s not a good feeling. There’s no reason to make another fanbase feel that way.

If you don’t have anything nice to say when you see a Nittany Lions fan on Saturday, do everyone a favor and say nothing.

After all, OSU football is not so far removed from its own troubles that Buckeye Nation should feel that it is in a position to judge other football programs.

Riddle me this.

Question: To solve math equations, two things are required to find the answer — a pencil and a piece of paper. But, let’s say that in this case, you forgot to shove those in your book bag before class.

How would you attempt to illustrate a mathematical equation without them?

Answer: With your body.

Six Ohio State performing arts students and two OSU faculty members are venturing into the mathematical world. They have devised a method of representing math where all you need is your body.

They will be taking their performance to the Tate Modern Conference in London on Nov. 18-19. The conference showcases international artists and academics in the subject of topology.

Brian Rotman, OSU humanities and math professor, was curious about the human ability to translate mathematical symbols, formulas and patterns into 3-D images. He said he has always wondered if there was a way to humanize math.

Rotman said this concept doesn’t focus on equations.

“Topolgy is an area of math that focuses on properties with continuous formations, such as stretching circular diagrams,” Rotman said. “I believed that the human form would be able to demonstrate stretching with the body, but I just needed to create a definite floor plan for performers to follow.”

Rotman found his plan in category theory. The theory is a way to organize diagrams in a way that has a formation, such as a circular shape. Rotman selected the ordinal five diagram to use, consisting of five points, identified by the letters A through E. “I like to describe the ordinal as the buttons on the back of a couch,” Rotman said. “They hold the cushion together at a point, but allow for the cushion to take its own form. The key is for the performers to meet at their assigned letter at the exact moment, or the whole thing is lost.”

Once he had the concept on paper, Rotman was ready to bring life to his equation. He took it to the OSU Theatre Department, where one person was able to see the answer through his madness.

The formula of this performance was conceived and choreographed by OSU associate theatre

OSU students and faculty are scheduled to dance in the Tate Modern Conference in London Nov. 18-29, 2011. professor Jeanine Thompson. She is also a movement instructor in the department.

After holding auditions at the beginning of Fall Quarter, Thompson had selected six performers who were ready for the challenge at hand.

Thompson said the first rehearsal was interesting.

“At our first rehearsal we had nothing on the board,” Thompson said. “But, I knew we would find the solution. I began with Viewpoints, which is a nonverbal workshop to get the performers to begin experimenting with different gestures and movement to use in the piece.”

From the first rehearsal, the ensemble had about one month to come up with a 10-minute routine to solve Rotman’s riddle and take it to London. Not only did they complete the task, but through the hours of rehearsal, the ensemble grew into a family.

“It’s cool that we have gotten as close as we have,” said Natalia Lepore Hagan, a third-year in dance and theatre, who is one of the six performers.

“We started to know what each other was thinking, which is good to make the performance more cohesive.”

The performers showcased their finished piece

to an audience in the Drake Union Nov. 7 with the addition of lyrical music and abstract black and white costumes.

The group is looking forward to traveling to London to showcase the talent that is tucked away at OSU. “To take this piece to the Tate Modern is unheard of,” Thompson said. “Only at a university like Ohio State would a group of students get to take their art across the ocean. We have become a family and taught ourselves, and I hope the world, something new and different.”

Forgettable Drake ‘So Far Gone’ from being one of rap’s most talented acts

When I first heard “Best I Ever Had” in the summer of 2009, my girls and I were smitten and I went on a hunt to find out who this smooth-talking new rapper was. I was a little surprised to find out it was Aubrey Drake Graham, who played wheelchair-bound Jimmy Brooks on “Degrassi” — a man I was absolutely obsessed with until I realized he looked exactly like my older brother.

His mixtape, “So Far Gone,” was my most listened-to album at the beginning of my sophomore year. I was excited for this new rapper coming out with a host of others that year, like Wale and B.o.B. The anticipation I had for his first album was high and then it came out and I was, for the most part, disappointed and bored.

The worst thing an artist can do is completely change their sound before their first album even comes out. I felt weirdly betrayed and have been bitter about it ever since.

I quickly lost all interest in Drake when I realized what direction he was going in. I can only tolerate whiny rappers for so long, and while I adore the people that produce and guest on his album, like The Dream

VANESSA SPATES spates.3@osu.edu and Jay-Z, they weren’t enough to hold my attention. Since then, I’ve felt negative feelings toward Drake that I haven’t felt with any other rapper, simply because he got my hopes so high just to let me down.

My anticipation for his second studio album was pretty low and for good reason. It was more of the same whiny, woe-isme attitude that has infected Drake since “Thank Me Later.”

I understand fame is hard, but dude’s making millions and he’s still complaining about it? I guess when you’re a rapper who grew up in a middle class home, you have to think outside the box.

It doesn’t help that Drake

Rapper Drake released his second album, ‘Take Care,’ Nov. 15, 2011.

Irish troupe invites audiences to give ‘Hamlet’ a new shake CAROLINA PEGUERO Lantern reporter peguero.6@osu.edu

We’re on Twitter.

is Lil Wayne’s protégée, a man whose sales are kept alive by drunken college kids across the nation and a man I despise. It seems as though Drake tries to emulate his teacher a little too much, but he also strays into an R&B singer, hell-bent on making panties drop.

Yes, Drake is “different” and he makes girls swoon, but he doesn’t have the grit and the flexibility that can extend a rapper’s career. Yes, his introspective rhymes are intriguing and heartwrenching, but Kanye West did it before and did it better.

On his newest album, his laid-back attitude just seemed like lack of sleep to me. He was carried and outshined by the eclectic mix of featured artists on the album.

His arrogant outlook is straying into a cockiness that’s not as fun as Wayne’s or as entitled as Jay-Z’s. He has no real reason to be that haughty. Two albums and zero Grammy’s does not a legend make.

So, I think Drake needs to take a step back and re-evaluate what direction he wants to continue in before even his die-hard fans start to get bored with him.

The contemporary theater ensemble, Pan Pan, has traveled from Dublin, Ireland, to come to the Wexner Center for the Arts with a re-interpretation of William Shakespeare’s “Hamlet.”

The performance is scheduled to be held in Mershon Auditorium at 8 p.m Thursday.

Pan Pan’s “The Rehearsal, Playing the Dane,” focuses on the bard’s purgatorial and immortal tragedy at the graveyard, through a modern interpretation of Hamlet’s character.

Prince Hamlet, son of the deceased King Hamlet, mourns the death of his father and the betrayal of his uncle Claudius, who had married his mother. His

anger and revenge is portrayed in the play with the famous, “To be, or not to be” monologue.

The audience, however, will decide who will be the role of Hamlet.

Charles Helm, director of programming for the Wexner Center, has worked with the ensemble before and said that the show is “special.”

“The show really is a lot of fun and it has a lot surprises in it,” Helm said. “It’s not at all a classical take on Hamlet. It’s very much a contemporary look at it.”

For the first half of the show, audience members will be able to see the actors compete for the role of Hamlet. In the second half, the audience can interact with the actors and choose their favorite.

The chosen actor will then play the role of the “Great Dane.”

With this year being dedicated to Shakespeare,

Christopher Matsos, Ohio State theatre lecturer and program coordinator of the Ohio State Arts Initiative, has mentored middle school, high school and college students, focusing on Shakespeare’s plays.

Over the summer, Matsos recruited students from local high schools and has worked on and rehearsed their scenes, monologues and acting techniques. Seven male students were selected, Matsos said.

“They had to be all men because they are playing to the Shakespearean convention that only men played all the roles,” he said.

Chelsea Phillips, OSU alumna and graduate assistant at the Arts Initiative, said that it will be “really interesting and fun to see the inclusion of local actors” in the show.

Tickets for the general public are $18 and $10 for students.
