Not everyone is sold on the Second-year Transformational Experience Program.

STEP is in its first semester at Ohio State and after about 11 weeks, some students, faculty and staff have said the program needs work.

“It’s definitely developing,” said Kathleen Harper, a lecturer in the College of Engineering and a STEP faculty member. “Meeting with a group of people … once a week is very different from teaching a class where you get to see the students multiple times a week closer together.”

Some students participating agreed with Harper.

“I feel like there’s still definitely a lot of room for growth within STEP but I overall enjoy the idea,” said Amanda Stefanik, a second-year in communication and STEP student.

The STEP experience is “designed to focus on student success and development,” and allow students “the opportunity to engage in activities that cater to their individual interests and needs,” according to the STEP website.

STEP launched as a pilot program for the 2013-14 school year. One

Students who complete the pilot program will be eligible to receive a $2,000 fellowship to use toward various educational opportunities.

Each student is placed into a small group of about 20 students and one faculty member called a cohort. Five or six cohorts combine to make a

larger group, or a house.

At the beginning of the 2016-17 school year, when the $370 million North Residential District Transformation is scheduled to be completed, the requirement for OSU students to live on campus for two years is set to go into effect. Living on campus will then be mandatory, but STEP will remain optional.

Stefanik called the program a “guinea pig process.”

“There’s been some things I think the faculty is doing extremely well, but there’s also been a feeling of a lack of engagement,” she said.

Stefanik said her faculty members have been open to change, but the larger program still needs a larger organization.

Miles Reagans, a second-year in mechanical engineering, agreed that STEP has been a learning process.

“It’s a good idea and everything, but as of this point, it’s a little unorganized. I don’t think the expectations are clear,” he said.

Anna Soter, a professor emerita in the College of Education and Human Ecology and a STEP faculty member, said the fact that there are problems and will be necessary future changes isn’t surprising.

“There are a lot of things we’re learning,” she said. “We’re an experimental group. Consequently we’re also … involved in co-creating any adjustments so we’ve got a lot of flexibility and I think it’s actually going surprisingly well given that we have quite a bit of flexibility as faculty.”

Though Columbus turned down a chance to host the Olympics, the city might soon be a contender for holding other big-time sporting events.

The Greater Columbus Sports Commission announced at the end of October it will be hosting the Association of Chief Executives for Sports’ biennial meeting in June — a meeting in which Columbus will be showcased to representatives of sports groups as an attempt to attract national events, teams, athletes and fans.

Stephen Ducoff is the CEO of ACES, which is a trade association based in Colorado comprised of executive directors from all 46 U.S. Olympic Committee National Governing Bodies, including sports like gymnastics, wrestling, track and field and cycling.

“Starting about three or four years ago, we became very popular, if you will, in that cities see us as an opportunity to showcase their facilities, their staff, their ability to host events and meetings as well in those cities,” Ducoff said.

Ducoff said Linda Logan, the executive director for the Greater Columbus Sports Commission, has been asking ACES to come to Columbus for years.

Police officials: Joint jurisdiction making a difference DANIEL BENDTSEN Lantern reporter bendtsen.1@osu.edu Some Ohio State and Columbus officials think several of the past year’s initiatives have improved campus safety.

Speaking at an Undergraduate Student Government meeting, Columbus Division of Police Deputy Chief Tom Quinlan said the agreement between University Police and the Columbus Division of Police was an improvement of the system that needs to be continued.

University Police Chief Paul Denton and Quinlan came to the USG meeting Tuesday evening to conduct a town hall discussion on campus safety, along with OSU Senior Vice President for Administration and Planning Jay Kasey and Vice President for Student Life Javaune Adams-Gaston.

Adams-Gaston praised the police agreement during the talk and said it was the result of “relentless” pressure by USG and other students.

“We don’t get it right every day, but every day, it is important to us and we talk all about this or that happening and things we could do differently,” she said.

The agreement, signed September 2012, allows University Police to take action against felonies or misdemeanor thefts or violent offenses officers observe off-campus, as long as officers are on campus or traveling to or from campus while they observe the incident.

That exception has allowed University Police to enforce drunk driving laws in the campus area over the past year.

The agreement allows University Police to temporarily bypass the jurisdiction law that limits University Police authority to OSU property. Those laws had made officers’ work more difficult in the past, Denton said.

“Is it efficient? No. Is it something that the bad guys know? Absolutely, and they’ll exploit that and oftentimes victimize people because of those legal boundaries that have been set up,” he said.

Before the agreement existed, University Police were often powerless bystanders to off-campus

crime, Denton said.

“If a crime occurs off-campus, we would have no ability to walk over there and take any action,” he said. “If we saw someone getting beat up or your bike getting stolen, we would literally have to watch it and call our friend at Columbus (Division of Police) to respond to it.”

Quinlan explained there are other areas of cooperation that are advanced by the agreement as well. University and Columbus police officers now share resources, including canine units and horsemounted police forces, for major events.

Quinlan said he and Denton have also increased

OSU Fisher College of Business is located between West Woodruff and West Lane avenues. Fisher was recently ranked the No. 36 best US business school by Forbes.

BRIAN DOAK Lantern reporter doak.22@osu.edu Ohio State’s Fisher College of Business was recently ranked one of the top graduate business schools in the country.

Fisher was ranked as the No. 36 best business school in the U.S. by Forbes. This list is published once every two years, and schools are ranked by their MBA program alumni’s returns on investment. There was no significant change for Fisher, which was ranked as the No. 34 best school in the 2011 poll.

The top spot on the 2013 list went to the Stanford University Graduate School of Business in California.

Using return on investment, Forbes used the cost of going to a school with the average base salary of its graduates for their first five years out of school. Fisher full-time MBA students pay tuition of about $29,700 for in-state, while out-of-state students pay more than $47,000, for two semesters. The median base salary for a Fisher graduate in 2012 was $90,000, according to Forbes.

About 97 percent of graduates were employed within three months after graduation, according to Forbes.

Brian Croyle, a third-year in operations management, said although he’s an undergraduate, he’s gotten jobs in the past in part because of his Fisher affiliation.

“When I was working as a manager downtown at Max & Erma’s, the Fisher name was recognized. I applied as a manager at Kroger and I got a call back within 20 minutes and the first thing they said was, ‘So you went to Fisher,’” Croyle said. “Fisher is pretty important.”

Students can choose between a variety of programs in the

college, including master’s degrees in accounting, finance, human resource management, business logistics engineering and business operational excellence, in addition to the full-time MBA. Ann Hamilton, a Fisher spokeswoman, said the college posts some rankings on its website for advertising and recruiting purposes.

“Students are very savvy, they have access to information at their fingertips,” Hamilton said.

She was also optimistic about Fisher’s current ranking.

“Generally, we feel good,” Hamilton said, adding that Fisher is “on the path” to improving its rankings.

Some students, though, said they were unaware of what Fisher was ranked.

Christian Merrill, a fourth-year in arts and technology with a marketing minor, said while he knew the rankings were available, he hadn’t checked them out.

“I do know the college is prestigious around here,” Merrill said.

The website lists 118 full-time MBA students in the class of 2013 and has more than 200 students enrolled in its other graduate programs.

Hamilton said no matter what the ranking, it’s important that the college’s students, staff and faculty are recognized for their excellence.

“They (Fisher’s programs) are strong and getting stronger, and it will improve over time as Ohio State moves from excellence to eminence. Right now, we are very proud of our academic standing,” Hamilton said.

Jurisdiction from 1A communication with one another in recent years. He said they now immediately contact each other about any OSU-related incident that occurs within their jurisdictions.

Adams-Gaston said the joint jurisdiction agreement makes OSU “one of the most robust student safety constituencies in the country.”

Kasey said safety planning at OSU involves more than crime, though.

“Safety, to me, goes beyond crime.

It go to those horrendous accidents that many of us were involved in trying to understand a year ago, which were basically pedestrian, bicycle and car accidents,” Kasey said. “We take that very, very seriously, because you can be hurt just as easily as you can be stolen from or

molested. So we’re trying to do a variety of things to keep you safe when you’re traversing campus or going off-campus.”

A string of traffic-related accidents during Fall Semester 2012 led to the creation of a Traffic Safety Task Force.

USG President Taylor Stepp said after the meeting that USG organized the meeting because of safety concerns that have been raised.

“We had a lot of questions over the year about safety, and what USG was doing, what the university was doing, and what the city was doing. I just wanted to provide a forum for students to have a conversation about not only what they’d like to see,” Stepp said. “That’s important and that’s healthy for everyone. You might get some tough questions, but you’ll only get a positive outcome.”

continuations has been a noticeable issue so far because there are no ramifications or requirements to make up missed meetings yet.

“Even when we all hold this time free, sometimes the students have something important that comes up and then they can’t make it to the meeting,” she said. “You certainly don’t treat missing a STEP meeting in the same way that you would treat missing a class.”

Harper added that her group has been working to find a line between thinking of the program as optional and thinking of it as a class.

“They signed up for it and made a commitment to it and we the faculty signed up to it and made a commitment to it, but it’s not like taking a class and it’s not like teaching a class,” she said.

Soter said her group and the larger organization are still learning how to adjust and improve the program.

“Really it’s more about managing this area in a large institution. Organizationally, I think we need to fine tune,” she said.

Executive Vice President and Provost Joseph Steinmetz said students and faculty expressing problems isn’t surprising.

“There will be some changes (going forward), and that was totally expected,” Steinmetz said in an interview with The Lantern Oct 8. “When you launch something new, you get a feel for how the faculty reacts, how the students react when you have a new program, and we didn’t have any other benchmarks to compare it to, really, on this sort of scale.”

Interim President Joseph Alutto agreed and said the opinions of first group of students are important for the future of the program.

“We’re going to experiment in that first year. I think the brave students, and I hope the message is going to them, those who are part of that first thousand: we’re going to learn a lot from them, we’re going to try a number of different things, a number of new approaches for them to learn, to go beyond their limitations of just in-class learning,” he said during an interview with The Lantern Sept. 23.

Looking forward Harper said she anticipates many of the problems will work themselves out as house meetings become less frequent and students establish better relationships with their faculty members by meeting in smaller groups.

“In the Spring Semester, we probably won’t be having the great big meetings because there’s no guarantee that we’re going to be available for the same time because all of our schedules change,” she said. “So in the spring, we’re envisioning a lot more of these smaller meetings.”

Currently, students meet in a larger house group and a smaller cohort group every week, alternating between house meetings and cohort meetings each week.

Soter said maintaining the relationship between faculty members and students is important, though, especially for second-year students who often do not get the chance to interact with some tenured professors early in their college career.

Sports from 1A He said the city has a lot of appealing features that make it eligible to host major sporting events.

“The city was presented well … the downtown area is doing well it appears, the host hotels appear to be great, the convention center is fine,” Ducoff said. “One of ACES’ sponsors is Nationwide Insurance, so we’re excited to come to Columbus because that’s their headquarters and we’re excited to be able to do something in conjunction with them.”

The Greater Columbus Sports Commission was created in 2002 to “attract professional, collegiate, amateur and youth sporting events to Greater Columbus,” according to the organization’s website.

The association has enjoyed recent success, with the NHL announcing Saturday that its 2015 All-Star Game will be held in Columbus that January.

The commission has also announced that the USA Fencing national championships will be held in Columbus in 2014. Columbus has also been named as a finalist to potentially host eight NCAA championship events from 2014-18.

Columbus, however, has denied opportunities to host large-scale sporting events in the past. The city was asked in February, along with 34 others, by the U.S. Olympic Committee to consider making a bid for the 2024 Summer Olympics.

In April, Mayor Michael Coleman’s office confirmed Columbus was not going to make a bid.

“The City of Columbus is not pursuing the 2024 Olympic Games for a number of reasons, including the enormous cost that would be required to simply

“They miss that if they don’t have that connection with faculty because the (graduate student teaching assistants), they’re focused more on delivering the curriculum and teaching the courses,” she said.

“Having been a TA myself when I was a doctoral student, I really didn’t know all that much.”

Stefanik said in the future, there should be more input from the students.

She said her group has gone from the faculty leading the meeting to having student leadership, which fits with one of the six STEP points of interest.

The $2,000 students receive will go toward certain points of interest including study abroad, internships, undergraduate research, community service, leadership opportunities and creative endeavors.

“I have met with my faculty member numerous times to sit down and discuss where the program is going,” Stefanik said.

Miles Reagans’ brother, Ryan Reagans — a fellow second-year, studying biomedical engineering — said there have been some difference between his group and his brother’s. Miles Reagans said if he made any changes, it would be to address those differences.

“I would just make especially clear (what faculty members should do). There’s a lot of difference between the groups,” Miles Reagans said.

Ryan Reagans agreed and said the expectations aren’t clear as to what the faculty members need to do each week, meaning his group may discuss different things from his brother’s group, or one group may be more interactive, while the other only discusses topics.

Steinmetz also said if changes are necessary, they’ll be made in the future.

“There’s an advisory committee for that program and we’ll do an assessment in the next couple of months of where we are and then have that committee come back and say do we have to tweak anything,” he said. “But we’re happy so far on the smaller scale that we’ve got going of how it’s progressing so far.”

Alutto said officials are still determining the best way to gather information from the first year of the program.

“The assessment of how well (STEP) works is going to be absolutely critical. And so one of the things we’ve talked a lot about, and I haven’t yet seen the results of, is exactly how we’re going to evaluate the feedback we get from that first thousand students. And I think that’s going to be a critical element in all of this,” he said.

OSU Student Life spokesman Dave Isaacs said Monday there are no set numbers available yet for the how many of the original 1,000 students are staying with STEP and added the evaluation is ongoing.

Soter said the best data would come from re-examining the students who currently participate in STEP at the end of their last year of college, after the program has been over for a few years, to see how the program affected them.

“How do we know whether STEP made a difference? And I don’t think we can answer that question in the short-term,” she said. “Maybe the only way you could answer it is in the long-term.”

submit a bid,” said Daniel Williamson, Coleman’s communications director, in an email. “In addition, the mayor is not sure the additional demands required of a city and its residents hosting the Olympics Games would be worth the honor. Mayor Coleman is interested in other conventions and other attractions that he believes would make more sense for Columbus.”

Shana Pramik, a second-year in forestry, fisheries and wildlife at Ohio State, said there are benefits to Columbus hosting major sporting events though.

“I would definitely attend (major sporting events) if they were held in Columbus,” Pramik said. “It would bring a lot of business and more attention to the city and it would have the potential to put Columbus on the map.”

Michael Penner, the OSU senior associate athletics director for internal operations, said OSU is willing to help support these organizations and the Columbus community.

“We are proud to partner with the Columbus Sports Commission whenever we can to help provide the Columbus community with the opportunity to see first class athletes and high level events,” Penner said in an email. “These events introduce current and future Olympians in many sports to the general public.”

‘Q’ looking to lead, score for Buckeyes in 2013-14 daniel rogers Asst. sports editor rogers.746@osu.edu Deshaun Thomas. Jared Sullinger. Evan Turner.

Three names that live in Ohio State basketball lore — Buckeye stars that took a boatload of points with them when each left college ball.

Since 2009, those three players each led OSU in scoring over the course of a season. Thomas averaged 19.8 points per game last season, Sullinger scored 17.5 per contest in 2011-12 and Turner tallied 20.4 in 2009-10. All three players are now in the professional ranks, and OSU is looking for someone to fill their shoes.

Many OSU faithful are looking for one junior forward from Jackson, Miss., to be that player for the Buckeyes this season: LaQuinton Ross.

Ross was fourth on the team in 2012-13 with 8.3 points per game, a total he managed while only averaging 16.9 of the 40 minutes during a game.

Although the season has yet to officially get under way, Ross is already off to a good start after tying the team lead with 15 points in an exhibition match against Walsh Sunday.

Ross said during OSU Media Day Oct. 10 even if he isn’t the team’s leading scorer this year, he feels like he has grown into a leader for the Buckeyes.

“That’s one thing I worked on too, also — communicating with my teammates more. Because I think down the line, they’re going to need me a little bit more than they needed me last year,” Ross said.

“Knowing that if I’m not talking to them, they’re not going to look at me in the game.”

Ross added in his expanded role this season, he has had to bulk up to be able to defend bigger players.

“I don’t think it was as much getting points, I think it was more just being able to take that contact in the Big Ten,” Ross said about adding weight.

“With the Big Ten being physical, and this year, seeing how small we play, (I’ll) definitely (be) having to guard (bigger players) this year … It might have some plays where I switch off and we’re playing Purdue and I have to guard (a big guy) and I can’t be under 200 pounds doing that.”

Because he might have to defend those larger players, Ross said he now weighs 225 pounds, up from the 215 he played at last season.

Senior guard Aaron Craft said Ross has grown into more of a team player instead of a just a player who looks to shoot first.

“He’s done a phenomenal job coming in right now and not taking everything on himself. Is he playing perfect? No. But he’s doing a great job of playing with other people right now,” Craft said at Media Day. “He’s communicating. He’s talking on defense and offense and that makes us a better team. He’s feeling that role pretty well.”

But Craft made clear Ross wasn’t expected to step in and be exactly what Thomas was last season.

“Is he going to be Deshaun? Absolutely not. But he’s bringing his own twist that Deshaun can’t do either,” Craft said.

Craft added that although Ross is talented, replacing the scoring Thomas brought to the table is going to be a team effort this season.

“You can’t replace Deshaun with just one person,” Craft said. “Even with him, we shot one of the worst percentages in coach (Thad Matta’s) career here at Ohio State (45.1 percent). Our biggest focus is being able to knock down open shots, elevating our shooting percentage and that opens up countless other things on the offensive end.”

Kelly Roderick / For The Lantern

Junior forward LaQuinton Ross (10) takes a free throw during an exhibition game against Walsh Nov. 3 at the Schottenstein Center. OSU won, 93-63.

Ross was vital to OSU’s run to the Elite Eight last season, as he averaged 15 points per game during the NCAA Tournament, including scoring 17 against both Iowa State and Arizona.

Against Arizona, Ross made an impression, hitting a game winning 3-pointer with two seconds left on the clock.

Matta said Ross finished last year well, and that since the season ended, he has grown into a more aware player.

“LaQuinton finished the season on a high note, I think that he had hit his stride in terms of having a better understanding of what we need him to do and how we need him to do it,” Matta said during Media Day. “One of the biggest things I’ve noticed thus far

is he’s got a much broader vision offensively than what he had in the past.”

Consistency should be a big focus for Ross this season, Matta added.

“From the standpoint of LaQuinton, his entire playing career a lot has been based on potential and he and I have had that discussion,” Matta said. “It’s time to be productive, but probably more important it’s time to be consistent and that to me would supersede any expectations that anybody outside of the program can possibly put on him.”

OSU is scheduled to begin regular season play Saturday at noon against Morgan State at the Schottenstein Center.

Hyde has sights set on becoming Meyer’s 1st 1,000-yard rusher daniel rogers Asst. sports editor rogers.746@osu.edu Since becoming the coach of Bowling Green in 2001, current Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer has never had a running back rush for 1,000 yards in a season.

In that same time frame, OSU has had seven seasons where a running back reached the milestone, with Chris “Beanie” Wells and Antonio Pittman each doing so twice in back-to-back seasons.

Now, as the end of the 2013 season rapidly approaches, senior running back Carlos Hyde is on pace to break Meyer’s streak, and exceed the 1,000 yard plateau. Hyde sits at 701 yards on the season, having reached that mark in only in six games after he was suspended

by Meyer after his involvement in an incident at a Columbus bar in July.

After the Buckeyes’ 56-0 victory against Purdue on Saturday, Hyde said his goal to reach 1,000 yards isn’t just about personal achievement.

“I really want to get that 1,000 yards,” Hyde told cleveland.com.

“Not just for me, but for the offensive line, just to have a 1,000 yard back and for coach Meyer.”

Hyde came close in 2012, finishing the season with 970 yards despite missing two games with a sprained MCL. Upon his return from the suspension this season, Hyde was limited in his first game back against Florida A&M Sept. 21, only rushing five times for 41 yards.

Since that point though, Hyde has averaged 132 yards per game on the ground. If he keeps it up, this pace will have him at 1,000 yards by the end of the regular season.

After the Oct. 5 game against Northwestern, when Hyde led the Buckeyes to a 40-30 comeback victory, Hyde said his play since the suspension has been all about atoning for his mistake.

“I missed out on those three games, you know, I can’t get those

OSU won, 56-0. games back,” Hyde said. “I go out every game with a mindset that I have to make up for those three games … I’m running with a whole different demeanor than what I would have had in the beginning if I didn’t get suspended. I have a different hunger for the game basically.”

Against the Wildcats, Hyde ran for a career high 168 yards and three touchdowns, all three of which came with OSU trailing.

In the win against Purdue last weekend, Hyde only carried the ball eight times, his lowest total since playing Florida A&M. Despite the lack of touches, the Naples, Fla., native still ran for 111 yards, averaging almost 14 yards per carry.

Junior tight end Jeff Heuerman said after the game against the Boilermakers, having explosive players helps open up the field for the rest of the OSU offense.

“Like I’ve said before, having a running back like Carlos Hyde and a quarterback like (junior quarterback) Braxton Miller … having all those guys being so productive, it puts me in a position where I can make my block easier sometimes,” Heuerman said.

Miller said after the game against Penn State Oct. 26, Hyde has grown up as a player and a leader from last season, with the suspension motivating him to play even harder.

“Leadership from where he grew from last year and that little incident he had,” Miller said. “Just felt like he’s got to prove himself even more.”

Hyde rushed for 147 yards and two touchdowns against Penn State, despite not playing for a majority of the second half.

“Carlos didn’t play but two and a half quarters if I remember right.

That’s a lot of yards against a team we have a lot of respect for,” Meyer said.

Co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Ed Warinner agreed with Meyer, adding that Hyde’s ability helps to motivate the offensive line to play well.

“They feed each other. Carlos runs over people and finishes runs and that gets the offensive line fired up and they work even that much harder to create holes, and it’s a highly motivated group,” Warinner said after the Penn State game.

With the potential to break the 1,000-yard mark getting closer, Hyde faces a favorable schedule in the coming weeks. The Buckeyes’ next two opponents following the bye week are Illinois and Indiana, currently ranked No. 114 and No. 115, respectively, in the country in rush yards allowed per game.

The game against Illinois is scheduled for Nov. 16 in Champaign, Ill., with the Buckeyes returning home the following week for their final home game of the year against Indiana Nov. 23.

Commentary

Former Buckeye Oden remains inspirational despite bad luck tim moody Lantern reporter moody.178@osu.edu Greg Oden has reeled in a lengthy list of individual accolades over the years, but also has a list of potentially career-derailing injuries to his name.

He was named 2006 Indiana Mr. Basketball and 2006 Naismith Prep Player of the Year. Oden made the decision to attend Ohio State and play for coach Thad Matta, but his health woes would begin even before he set foot on the court for OSU. Oden had surgery on his wrist just under a year after making his college decision and ended up missing the first part of his OSU career. When he did return, the concerns were gone as he became one of the most dominant players in the NCAA, lefty free throws and all.

After just one year of donning the Scarlet and Gray, which would ultimately be his only collegiate season, Oden was named a first team AP All-American, picked up the National Association of Basketball Coaches’ Defensive Player of the Year award and was given the Scalding Pete Newell Big Man Award.

Oden went on to be picked No. 1 overall in the 2007 NBA Draft by the Portland Trail Blazers and what was projected to be a career similar to NBA Hall of Famer David Robinson. Instead, his career turned into a sad story of injuries and even alcoholism.

At least for a while.

In September 2007, Oden had microfracture surgery on his right knee — one year in the NBA; zero games played.

Oden hurt his foot in his debut the next year, missing two more weeks, before chipping his knee cap in February 2009 and missing about a month of action. Dec. 5 of the same year, he again injured his left knee and left on a stretcher with a fractured patella.

Oden has not played a regular season game since.

In a 2012 interview with former OSU teammate Mark Titus, Oden admitted he was close to becoming an alcoholic during his career.

“When I played well, I’d drink to celebrate. And when I played poorly, I’d drink to forget. That second year in Portland I pretty much became an alcoholic,” Oden told Titus.

From the point he last stepped off the court, many people, myself included, believed Oden would never again play in the NBA. There was a time when I questioned his passion to return. I mean, how can you have the drive to keep coming back when every effort presents a new setback?

His name had fallen out of the spotlight as other former Buckeye bigs like Kosta Koufos, Byron Mullens and Jared Sullinger were attempting to make a mark in the NBA. Then, in January, rumors began surfacing that multiple teams, including NBA champion Miami Heat, were interested in signing Oden.

The Heat signed him in August and Oden returned to the court Oct. 23 in a preseason game against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Against all odds, Oden is back. From what it looks like so far, he is currently a shell of his former self, but his ability and drive to even attempt a return, let alone make it back, is inspirational.

Many would have thrown in the towel after the first few knee surgeries, but Oden did not.

It might be his passion for the game, it might be outside pressure or he might simply have a point to prove, but Oden should be an inspiration for anyone, athlete or not.

When presented with what has to be some of the worst luck in the history of sports, he never backed down and now finds himself a favorite to wear a championship ring by the end of the season.

‘Catfish’ host: ‘If you’re gonna do something, do it all the way’ Elizabeth Tzagournis Lantern reporter tzagournis.24@osu.edu Host of MTV reality hit “Catfish: The TV Show,” Nev Schulman sipped a steaming cup of peppermint tea while candidly discussing his life and the show that’s shed light on a cultural phenomenon.

“I never thought in a million years it would be so successful and that I would actually have lots of people seeing and knowing about my story,” Schulman said in an interview with The Lantern before the show.

Schulman visited Ohio State Monday for an Ohio Union Activities Board-sponsored event titled “Catfish on Campus ft. Nev Schulman.” The Archie M. Griffin Grand Ballroom was filled with fans eager to hear from the reality TV figure as Schulman gave advice to students on topics ranging from love and relationships to his own past and future.

For those who do not know what a “catfish” is or why the term is used, Schulman made sure to explain its whereabouts.

A “catfish” is someone who pretends to be someone they’re not through the use of an online profile with the intent of luring another person into an online relationship.

The namesake of the reality show “Catfish” comes from a story told to Schulman during his documentary, which was released in 2010, two years before the show premiered.

The story explained that when cod were shipped to Asia from North America, they would remain inactive in their tanks, which would result in mushy flesh unsuitable for consumption.

The issue was eradicated with the use of catfish, used to keep the cod active. The

real life “catfish” are the people who keep others on their toes and vigilant so as not to become monotonous while living day-to-day.

Schulman experienced this firsthand and now spends his time helping others stuck in online relationships discover their own “catfish.”

Although Schulman is paid to spend most of his life on camera, he believes many fans do not really know who he is or what his past entails. Through short films and pictures, Schulman shared his life prior to “Catfish” and how he was so different from how many people see him today. Hitting rock bottom at 19 years old, Schulman said he was “unhappy, confused, upset (and) friendless.”

“I’ve accidentally sort of stumbled into this position to be able to really help people and shed some light on issues and be at the center of conversation,” Schulman told The Lantern.

Although hosting a reality show on MTV was never Schulman’s plan, he said the way to build character is through the openness to new experiences.

“If you’re gonna do something, do it all the way, even if it means miserable failure,” Schulman said. “You have to be willing to get a little weird and try things.”

This advice was a theme that carried through his presentation, and Schulman urged his audience to show kindness to all and hear their story.

“Everybody has a story and you shouldn’t judge them, you should listen,” Schulman said.

JJ Iula, a first-year in finance, attended the presentation and enjoyed the chance to hear Schulman’s story.

“It was cool hearing his story versus just the show,” Iula said. “(It was interesting) hearing about his life and the decisions he made and how (they) shaped him.”

Schulman’s direct honesty and willingness to share resonated with many in the audience.

“My job, maybe more than anything, is just sort of try to make them comfortable to be themselves,” Schulman told The Lantern.

“I am there to console and encourage everybody who I am dealing with and more than anything be a neutral, non-judgmental mediator.”

Schulman and “Catfish” do not attempt to persuade people to stop using the Internet to meet people, but rather reevaluate the way in which they interpret and respond to social media.

“Unfortunately, there are lessons to learn in life. Nothing has changed in regard to what they are but now there’s just a new platform, so finding out that people will take advantage of you and lie to you,” Schulman told The Lantern. “Now it’s digital and you don’t have to ever see them or touch them. They can just take advantage of you emotionally.”

Taylor Black, a fourth-year in strategic communication, expressed distrust about finding love online.

“I’m kind of skeptical, especially today where it’s so easy to fake a profile or picture,” he said.

Throughout the entire process, Schulman has remained proud of the work his show has achieved and the positive changes in the lives of those affected by a “catfish” and the “catfish” themselves.

“We’re really trying to (be) very fair and honest and real, which is not common in reality TV these days,” Schulman told The Lantern. “Hopefully by watching it, you will identify with and sort of draw from the experiences you see and connect to them in your own way.”

Host of MTV reality hit ‘Catfish: The TV Show,’ Nev Schulman talks to OSU at the Archie M. Griffin Grand Ballroom Nov. 4 for ‘OUAB Presents: Catfish on Campus ft. Nev Schulman.’

Ohio State Department of Theatre to bring stage aglow with ‘Zombie Prom’ Abigail Hofrichter Lantern reporter hofrichter.3@osu.edu Halloween may be over, but some zombies have yet to utter their final lines.

The Ohio State Department of Theatre will present the off-Broadway musical “Zombie Prom” starting Thursday. The musical, set in the 1950s, presents Enrico Fermi High senior and girl-nextdoor, Toffee (played by Kelly Hogan), who has fallen for the resident bad boy, Jonny, played by third-year theater major Trent Rowland.

When Toffee’s family forces her to end the love affair, Jonny drives his motorcycle into a nearby nuclear waste dump, and returns glowing and undead to reclaim her heart.

The character’s whole world changed when he met Toffee, Rowland said, and he turns Enrico Fermi High upside down with his return.

“Jonny has this amazing energy about him and it’s been a blast to channel that,” Rowland said.

One of Jonny’s biggest obstacles is the school principal, Miss Delilah Strict, played by fourth-year theater major Liz Light.

Light said she prepared for her role as the authoritarian by discovering how and why the woman could be so fearful.

“For those moments in the script which specify her to be especially frightening, I went back to those teachers, principals and study hall monitors that positively terrified me in school,” Light said.

Trent Rowland as Jonny (left), Liz Light as Miss Delilah Strict, and Kelly Hogan as Toffee in the OSU Department of Theatre’s production of ‘Zombie Prom,’ which is set to begin production Nov. 7 at Thurber Theatre.

Theatre Department, said she has wanted to do “Zombie Prom” for almost 10 years and can’t wait for the audience to experience the fun.

“We’ve been rehearsing for five weeks and we still crack each other up,” Fox said.

Members of the cast are equally excited to bring this production to campus. Both Light and Rowland said “Zombie Prom” is a sharp contrast to the types of productions the Department of Theatre usually chooses.

“‘Zombie Prom’ has been something of a palate cleanser for those involved, and I have no doubt it will have a similar effect on audiences,” Light said.

Rowland also said the group is excited to bring the fun and insanity of this show to life.

“It is fully aware of how ridiculous it is but that’s what makes it funny,” Rowland said.

The production process for this show has been different for everyone. Fox said she began working in January, meeting with scene, lighting and costume designers to plan the look, feel and pace of the play.

Some members of the cast did not have as much preparation time, however, and found the process quite demanding, Rowland said.

“This is probably the shortest amount of time I’ve had at OSU so far,” Rowland said. “About a month and a half is what I’ve had to work with, but it’s made the process more energized.”

The playwrights and composers of the original play, John Dempsey and Dana P. Rowe, are OSU graduates, Fox said. Rowe plans to attend one of the performances and lead a discussion after the show on Nov. 16.

Performances begin this week with scheduled shows Thursday through Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 3 p.m. The show is also set to run from Nov. 14 to Nov. 17 at similar times.

Tickets are $25 for the general public, $20 for Ohio State faculty, staff, Alumni Association members and senior citizens and $15 for students and children.

Artist to showcase labyrinth-like creation in exhibit ‘No/Where/NOW/Here’ Matthew Lovett Senior Lantern reporter lovett.45@osu.edu The Ohio Art League’s newest exhibition from artist Jill Raymundo , “No/Where/NOW/Here,” is slated to be somewhat of a labyrinth. Attendees don’t have to worry about actually getting lost, though.

A portion of the inspiration for curator-artist Raymundo’s showing comes from author Jorge Luis Borges’ work “The Garden of Forking Paths.”

“It’s a collection of stories,” Raymundo said. “The underlying story is that these people are in a labyrinth.”

This sense of a maze can be applied in different aspects of this exhibition. There is Raymundo’s work in itself, which in regards to the pieces she contributed to “No/Where/NOW/Here,” invokes a Romanticism influence.

In the paintings of the Romantic period, there is a “sense of a horizon within a horizon. You’re looking at a landscape within an interior,” Raymundo said.

Raymundo’s process as a multimedia artist, who sculpts utilizing certain computer programs among a variety of works, also references this intricate concept.

“In my creations, I’m always working with different kinds of media,” Raymundo said. “It’s a huge element in my work process. You’re constantly opening these different interfaces, and in a way, it’s kind of a labyrinth.”

The show consists of work made in a variety of mediums, but a highlight includes large-scale printsmade by Raymundo, which have been a pursuit of hers in the last two to three years, she said.

“I was originally going to show sculpture and these drawings, that sort of this cloudscape feel that I’ve been working in,” Raymundo said. “My recent work (has) been large-scale prints.”

Alongside Raymundo in this exhibition will be installations by glass artist Linda Diec, some of which are dedicated to pieces comprised of slightly altered and misshapen glass spheres.

Pieces from Jill Raymundo’s exhibit ‘No/Where/NOW/Here,’ which is set to open Nov. 7 at the Ohio Art League.

“Her work and my work are similar and very dissimilar,” Raymundo said.

“It looks good together so aesthetically, so formally, they match up.”

“No/Where/NOW/Here” is considered a member-curated exhibition, indicating the artists involved are all based in Ohio and are members of the Ohio Art League. Exhibitions for the year are voted on by the members twice a year. .

“Artists have to apply to have an exhibition here,” said Emmily Chang, an Ohio Art League intern and a fourth-year in psychology and photography. “We switch shows out here every month. It’s a nice-sized space, artists have a lot of room to work with.”

As a curator and artist in this showing at a space like the Ohio Art League, Raymundo was able to expand her ability to build on the exhibition and her work.

“The gallery is a nonprofit gallery and that it is located within the campus of OSU, it really gave (Linda) and myself, as a curator, the ability to create work that goes just beyond craft and the formalist qualities of visual art,” Raymundo said. “You have more freedom to create within that setting.”

“No/Where/NOW/Here” is set to open Thursday at the Ohio Art League, located at 1552 N. High St. in the South Campus Gateway.

studentvoice UN needs to crack down on Syrian chemical weapon use campus Columnist

madelyn grant grant.382@osu.edu

Israel has one of the strongest and most advanced military forces in the world. It is a country composed of people of different ethnicities with extremely different backgrounds but at the end of the day, it is a country with an intense unrelenting passion for the protection of its citizens.

This strong need to protect its citizens comes from the fact that Israel follows Jewish values in its care for all of its residents, not just a select few. Unfortunately, tens of thousands of people are losing their lives in the conflict in Syria, and the United Nations has not

stepped in to help.

The U.N.’s sole purpose is to protect human rights around the world. Why has the U.N. not made drastic efforts in Syria, given the catastrophic number of deaths?

There is a specific group within the council of human rights that deals with the Syrian Arab Republic and investigates possible violations of international human rights. Yet, a chemical weapon attack in September did not warrant an emergency session in the eyes of the council, according to unwatch.org. Instead, the U.N. has chosen to focus on less pressing issues such as the water quality in countries such as Kiribati and Tuvalu.

As an American student, I see America as being put in a very similar situation as Israel finds itself. Of course the geographic proximity of Syria to Israel’s border is much different than that of the U.S. to Syria, but either way, the decision of whether or not to take action should be in the hands of the U.N. The responsibility should not fall on countries such as the U.S. and Israel simply because they have the means to help. The U.N. is

a powerful force as well as a melting pot of representation and they should be taking action in Syria.

The U.N. Human Rights Council published a report that condemned the recent tragedy taking place in Syria and ordered Syrian authorities to cooperate with the U.N. All eyes have been on the U.N. and criticism has been flying because of the fact that no real actions against Syria has been taken. This destructive activity is not considered normal in the modern world, and something must be done.

Does Israel or the U.S. need to swoop in and be the superhero in Syria’s nightmare? Israel and Syria have not had any diplomatic relations for years. In the last two and a half years, the Middle East has been flaming up with riots. Throughout it all, as the death tolls were climbing in Israel’s neighboring countries, the citizens of Israel were continuing to live. Israelis are also some of the only people in the Middle East that have not been suppressed by their government throughout it all. The situation has never been ideal or even what anyone would call pleasant, but Israel has always done whatever necessary to keep its citizens and soldiers safe.

The chemical weapons being used in Syria could easily be releasing chemicals gasses into the air of its very close neighbors, one of which being Israel. This is just one of the many reasons why the U.N. should take action before more people get hurt and the chaos continues to spread into neighboring countries.

Whether or not people agree with Israel helping the Syrians or staying out of the situation, Israel’s hospitals are quietly treating some of Syria’s injured victims. Israel has also opened its towns to aid some victims of the Syrian’s governmental assaults. The care Israelis are offering Syrian refugees in hospitals is of no difference than what would be offered to Israelis.

While Israel is constantly the talk of United Nations meetings, it is much more rare to see Syria on the agenda. It is as if Israel does not get the respect and honor that the country deserves within the U.N. Even in the face of such a terrible massacre in Syria, the council has not moved on from the topic of Israel.

Syrian refugees seeking income in Egypt have set up tables outside the Houssary Mosque in Cairo to sell trinkets. According to the UN, nearly 2 million Syrians have fled to Egypt in the past year.

USG unfairly denies funds Economic divide in Cairo to Palestine cultural event marked by corruption Letter to the editor:

Letter to the editor: A few days ago, Students for Justice in Palestine received the news the Allocations Committee of Undergraduate Student Government would not fund their seminal event this year — A People with a Culture. It was set to feature performances by a stand-up comedian and a Palestinian dance group.

SJP is a national organization, with branches at schools across the country. The official purpose of the organization at Ohio State is simply “raising awareness and educating the public on the Palestinian struggle for justice and self-determination.”

Its events are open to the public, even specially designed to ensure accessibility.

I first heard about the organization when I happened to sit next to its former president in a class last fall. As a double major in Arabic and political science, I’ve come to find that opinions on the questions of Israel and Palestine tend to work their way into the classroom, and the issue is one with which I’m well acquainted. SJP’s new president and I have come to know each other, but I’m not a member of the group, nor do I generally attend their events.

Still, it struck me as odd that the Allocations Committee would refuse SJP’s funding request.

References to Israeli occupation are commonplace in the international community. The United Nations has deemed Israel an “occupying power” and the Israeli High Court of Justice holds that it presides over the West Bank with “belligerent occupation”. Its newly acquired status as a U.N. observer-state would seem to make the objective that even if the U.S. doesn’t recognize it as a country, there is some entity called Palestine. Agreements in the Oslo Accords to eventually cede control of certain areas to the elected Palestinian Authority would also seem to make clear that there is a struggle for independence­— one supported by the Israeli government.

I can certainly forgive the Allocations Committee for a lack of expertise in these areas; last year I saw

a video made on the Oval, and it showed that many OSU students can’t even locate Israel on a map, but the Multicultural Center had already pledged money to the event. So why didn’t the committee ask about any of these issues?

USG likes to make a big deal that it’s a part of the only true shared governance model in the country.

That is, the students that constitute our ranks are actually voting members in all University Senate committees. We have the opportunity, unlike other schools, to really have a say in the policies adopted by the university, meaning that many of our actions — like our recent support for Columbus City School levies and LGBT rights — are expressly political. It also means USG here isn’t just a stepping stone on the way to bigger and better things.

I sit on the Committee of Diversity and Inclusion, one of 11 committees make up the OSU Executive Branch. Our charter obliges us to “seek out and advocate for issues pertaining to underrepresented students and groups of the student body, with the intent of properly representing its diverse constituency,” as well as to recommend policies that foster tolerance and mutual respect.

Palestinian culture in the last half-century has necessarily been affected by Israeli-Palestinian relations. It is often presented exclusively as an opposition movement — routinely in a violent light, so when a student group at OSU seeks to present Palestinian culture in contrast to Israel, it does so out of necessity not nefariousness. Failing to give it a voice is failing to represent our constituency.

On Wednesday, an American Israel Public Affairs Committee National Board Member and a U.S. Congressman will be speaking at a BuckiPAC Gala for “politically motivated and Jewish community affiliated students.” Meanwhile, a group of less prestigious representatives will decide the fate of A People with a Culture.

Paul Peters Third-year in political science and Arabic peters.534@osu.edu

Growing up in a city like Cairo, one can easily see the rampant poverty that results from widespread corruption. Indeed, the inhumane conditions many have suffered through in Egypt for decades are probably the main cause of revolts, of upheavals, of necessary, and sometimes violent, protests that spiraled from the capital to the rest of the Middle East. The poverty is cruel, well-documented, and powerfully in your face. Unfortunately however, the flip side of corruption is much more subtle, yet almost just as tragic. At a very young age, I quietly realized that if you’re born poor in Cairo, you will die poor in Cairo. But it took me much longer to make the same realization that if you’re born wealthy in Cairo, you will die wealthy in Cairo.

This observation unlocked the secret to why corruption maintained its presence for so long in my country. I’m not referring to the political elite, the right-wing autocrats that obviously benefit from the startling lack of democracy. Instead, I’m talking about non-political, high-income families.

The looseness of business models in Egypt and the rest of the Middle East ensure that if you’re born into one of these families, you can quickly get a high-paying job, a nice house with a nicer family and a highly elite social status, all without the necessity of hard work. Of course, if an Egyptian would rather pave his way by hard work and a strong resolve, he can attain all of those luxuries as well; but the drive to compete is not as necessary in Cairo as it is in a properly democratic country. The poor do not need to compete because they are forced to accept the reality of their situation: they are born into a system that will never show them any modicum of support or allow them any chance at real growth. Conversely, the rich do not need to compete either, because it is easier to rely on connections, bribes and the good word of their familial reputation to get them places. This is why I think the Egyptian high class is so complacent: without the fear of failure to motivate them, why

would the intellectuals of this class choose to innovate and achieve rather than simply accept their good fortune? This morbid reality explains another anomaly in the Egyptian culture: the financial elite is not the country’s smallest constituency. Instead, it is the middle class that is the smallest class. The middle class cannot be found in Egypt. You are either filthy rich or dirt poor.

Of course, it’s rather important to note at this point that I make these conjectures as an observer rather than as an economist of any sort. I am no researcher of the forces behind the Egyptian class divide; I am only both their abuser and their victim. Fortunately or unfortunately, I have no numbers to throw at you, no statistics or percentages with which to back these claims.

I have only my experiences, and over the course of my life I’ve seen friends and relatives follow the same routes I’ve outlined in this article. The rich folks I’ve grown up surrounded by have inadvertently made sure corruption persists by ensuring success for their kin through the means of ‘the good word.’ In fact, this moral decline has become so ingrained in Cairo’s societal psyche that Egyptians have grown numb to its presence.

Politicians no longer need to make grand speeches denouncing shortcuts (and indeed, they haven’t in quite a while), because the shortcuts are no longer anomalies. They are the norm.

Ultimately, this all demonstrates that corruption is not built as a cruel force that simply and inhumanely oppresses the poor. Rather, it is built as a smart and morally bankrupt business ideal that backs the wealthy and makes sure they stay that way. Its oppression of the poor is merely a grotesque side effect.
